A/N: Thank you for the four people who gave me suggestions! :D And I have decided about how long this story will be. It'll be approximately 24 chapters. What else. Oh yeah, I'll take about one or two more suggestions, and then we'll see where I'll go from there.

I don't own pokemon, because then Zoroark wouldn't remind of that Dark Thorn monster on some Kingdom Hearts game! (I was watching my brother play it today…)

Love Happens Suddenly

Chapter 8

The absolute look of horror had written itself on Cupid's face when the small bunny realized he had run out of money. The little Buneary wasn't even sure how such a thing had happened, and he wasn't sure what he was going to do about it either.

Rubbing his paws together in a nervous manner, the bunny looked around, hoping to find some spare change lying on the ground somewhere.

Unfortunately, he found none and sighed hopelessly. How was he going to pay for it?

His stomach growled, and the brown fur ball was increasingly growing hungrier by the second.

That was when he spotted the lone Zoroark inside the restaurant that Cupid wished to dine in so badly. The rabbit-like creature instantly recognized him as the one pokémon who would get stood up from his dates often.

Cupid couldn't help but pity the fellow and made his way inside. Perhaps, he could assist this unlucky guy with his power in exchange for a meal? Or maybe some money was better? Eh, he'd figure it out.

Trotting up to the fox pokémon with his items in paw, Cupid waved over to the dark-type as he sat in front of him.

"Hiya, Mister. I see you're alone," began the bunny only to be interrupted.

"Listen kid, if you want to laugh at me like all the morons your age, go and laugh outside. I really don't need this right now," bluntly stated the Zoroark with an annoyed expression.

"But Mister, I'm no-"

"Save it."

"Mister, I re-"

"No."

"But Mister, I ca-"

"I said no. Now, scra-"

"I CAN MAKE POKÉMON FALL IN LOVE!" bellowed the Buneary, pestered at how rudely the nearly black pokémon kept interjecting.

The sound of Cupid's voice rang throughout the building, and the brown fur ball could feel the blank stare onlookers gave him.

Swallowing the embarrassment he had just caused himself, the bunny pokémon continued in a hushed whisper, "You see I have the ability to make anyone, and I mean anyone, fall in love."

The fox remained silent before laughing at the stupidity of the creature opposite of him.

The rabbit-like animal crossed his arms as a scowl formed on his face. Did he think this was a joke?

Finally, the Zoroark responded, "Fall in love? Gee, kid, that's a bit farfetched, don't you think? I mean no one can do that. Not even Arceus himself!"

"But…I can…"

"Really? And how exactly do you do that? Are you suddenly the "God of Love" now?"

"Well…"

"Save it, kid. I've got other places to be," the fox pokémon stated, brushing off anything his companion had to say as he made his way out.

"W-wait! I can prove it to you! Please don't go…" begged the Buneary.

The dark-type sighed and took a seat once more with a bored expression on his face.

"Okay. Prove it then."

"Um…okay…but…can you buy me something to eat first?"

"Oh I see it now. You're some moocher, aren't you?"

"N-no! I can tell you how…please?"

The nearly-black creature narrowed his eyes the smaller chocolate-colored one. Normally, he wouldn't have paid any more attention to things such as this, but he had to admit that he was a bit curious to see if this kid was telling the truth.

He was also secretly hoping that maybe this kid could shed some light on his love life.

"Well fine," muttered the older one. He flicked his wrist, and soon after, a young Grovyle waitress paced up to them with a forced smile.

"Hi, y'alll. What would you like?"

"Ah, just a Cheri sandwich for me, " ordered the Zoroark in a casual tone, not making eye contact with her.

"And ya, sweetheart?" asked the waitress as she turned to Cupid.

"A Pecha sandwich please!"

"Alright, sweetie. I'll be back with both of y'all orders."

With that, the grass-type turned away and left both males alone.

"Okay, now tell me, uh, what's your name, kid?"

"Cupid."

"Haha. Very funny, kid. What's your REAL name?"

"I don't know what you're talking about," replied Cupid, acting clueless. He figured keeping his true identity a secret would be better since this was a matter of business.

"Ugh, whatever. Anyways, how do you make people fall in love, 'Cupid'?" inquired the Zoroark.

"Hey! You didn't tell me your name!" yelled the Buneary, and his companion glared at him.

"Bruno. Now, hurry up. We haven't got all day!" rushed Bruno, becoming more exasperated by the second.

"Okay, okay, Bruno. You see, I have this bow and these magic arrows! If I just hit them, they'll fall in love an-"

"Oh my Arceus…YOU'RE BEHIND THAT?"

"What?"

"I…oh Arceus. Oh Arceus. What did you get yourself into now, Bruno? For Mew's sake!" Bruno scolded himself, not paying attention to the bunny at the moment.

"B-Bruno, are you okay?"

"Oh Arceus. You're coming with me to me the station," declared the dark-type as he stood up and hoisted Cupid off of his seat. He instantly exited the building as he turned to his right and headed in that direction.

""H-hey B-Bruno! Put me down!" cried the small creature as he tried prying off the Zoroark's giant red claws that kept him from escaping.

Bruno ignored the bunny as he focused his attention to the structures in the distance, searching for the police station somewhere.

"Please! What are you going to do with me?" asked Cupid, frightened and on the verge of tears.

The dark-type then took a sharp turn to the alleyway on his left and promptly dropped the Buneary to the ground. He fell with a thud, and the fox crossed his arms, thinking of what to say.

The brown fur ball stared up at his sudden kidnapper's face, tears forming in his eyes. He trembled in fear from the unexpected events that had occurred as he wondered what would happen to him.

The Zoroark disregarded this as he spoke again, "Listen here 'Cupid' or whatever your real name is…Normally, I would've just given you to the cops, but I'm rather desperate now. You say you can help me with my love life….So listen up, kid. YOU are going to work your magic arrows and do three random matchups right now. If you can do them successfully, I won't hand you over to the authorities, and you'll help me out. If not, off to jail you go. Do you understand?"

As the Buneary wept, he nodded feebly, afraid to say anything. Suddenly, his stomach growled and he tensed.

"Oh yeah…well, after we eat, you're helping me. Come on," called Bruno as he walked out of the alley.

Cupid frowned as he wiped his remaining tears and stood up. He wasn't sure why he would be sent to jail, but right now, the bunny was scared. And when you're scared, you're willing to do anything to save your hide.

Teddy shook her head for the millionth time today as Molly crossed her arms, giving her friend a pestered look.

"Teddy, tell me. Who is this guy you met?" pleaded the Scrafty, anxious to learn of his identity.

"Why? He's just a friend," she replied, avoiding her friend's question.

"Well, obviously you might think more than that if you've mentioned him a million times!"

"You know, what happened to that calm Scrafty I knew when I first met her? I'd like her back, please," mocked Teddy, giving her reptilian friend a playful grin.

"Teddy! If you change the subject one more time, I'm Brick Breaking you to the moon!" shouted Molly as she placed her paws on her hips, frustrated with her companion's evasiveness.

"Is Jordan wearing off on you? You suddenly sound a lot like him."

"TEDDY!"

"Kay, kay! Chill out already. Anyways, uhhh…his name is Frank. It's short for Francisco, and he's a total book worm," explained the Pikachu, trying to recall the information she'd learnt about the male only a couple of days ago.

Her friend gave a wide grin as the words reached her ears, but she felt it wasn't enough to quench her curiosity. So, she continued to hound her buddy for more.

"What else did you learn about him? What's he like? What type of pokémon is he?"

"He's a Buneary…and as for his personality, he's a bit, uhm, socially awkward? Or at least that's the kind of vibe I picked off of him…He's a bit clingy too, I believe. He sort of reminds me of a child."

"…How old is he?"

"Like my age? Eighteen, nineteen. Around there."

"Oh."

Silence followed, and neither of the two spoke. One because she had nothing else to say while the other wasn't sure she wanted to continued.

"I'll admit that he is a bit cute though," admitted the electric mouse out of nowhere as her cheeks reddened a bit at the thought.

"Aww…that's so cute…" whispered Molly, a bit happy to know Teddy was capable of such feelings.

"So, tell me. How long have you been with Jordan?" the Pikachu randomly asked, deciding it was a great time to change the subject.

The Scrafty froze at those words; her eyes widening in the process.

Teddy gave a hearty laugh, knowing this was going to be an interesting and amusing conversation.

A/N: Aaaand this happened. Oops, my mind wanders sometimes. Oh well. Read, Review, or ignore if you want!

Remember, I'll take about one or two more suggestions. So if you have anymore, send em' in.

And I realized, all the couples I've done are heterosexual ones….sooo…I better crank up some same sex ones. Anyways, bai!
