After this chapter, I feel like I should change the name of the story to 'Cupid Makes You Violent.' Kidding.

I don't own ROTG.

Cupid Makes You Stupid

Chapter 6

Jack laid in his bed, face down on his pillow. He didn't bother to cover himself with the blanket, he just laid there and sighed.

This wasn't fair. Why was this happening?

Jack had tried opening the door earlier, yanking at the doorknob and trying to ram the door down. But that didn't work. It was locked, and Jack wasn't strong enough to force it open. He could have just froze the lock, but Jack didn't have his staff with him.

He cursed himself for leaving it in the Globe Room when Bunny carried him off.

Bunny...

The name filled Jack's heart with joy. Sure, he didn't quite understand why, but being with Bunny just made Jack feel special.

And now the rabbit was who-knows-where.

"Jack? Tooth said, unlocking and opening Jack's door. She flew in, accompanied by Baby Tooth.

"Jack? Sweet Tooth, are you alright?" She asked, fluttering over to the winter sprite.

"What do you want?" Jack asked, not really in the mood to talk.

"I want to make sure that you're okay," Tooth answered. Jack just groaned in response. Tooth tried to run her hand through Jack's white hair to comfort him, but he just batted her away with his own hand.

Tooth looked a little hurt, but Jack didn't really notice.

"Where is Bunny?" He asked.

"In North's study," Tooth replied. Baby Tooth squeaked as she tried to snuggle close to Jack.

"I want to see him. When can I see him?" Jack asked. He looked over at Tooth, his big, blue eyes pleading with her.

"When- Once we've gotten the situation under control," Tooth stuttered slightly.

Jack, not really getting what she was talking about, said, "Next time, you should knock before entering a room."

Jack was still pretty miffed at the others for walking in on him and Bunny's. The word 'privacy' apparently meant nothing anymore.

"Not that, Jack," Tooth said uncomfortably, her face a tad red. "Well, it's part of it, but that's not what I'm talking about."

"Then what are you talking about?" Jack asked.

"Jack," Tooth said slowly. "Don't you remember earlier? With Cupid?"

"Yeah, she was attacked by Pitch," Jack said. "Why are you guys focused on me, when we should be focused on Pitch?" Yes. Jack was asking a legit question.

'Where did Cupid go, anyway?' Jack wondered. He was about to vocalize this question before Tooth continued.

"Jack, do you really not remember?" Tooth asked, concerned.

"Remember what?" Jack asked.

"Cupid was lying, Jack," Tooth stated. "Pitch never attacked her."

"Then who did?"

"Nobody," Tooth said. "She lied to you."

"Why are we even talking about this?" Jack asked impatiently, starting to get up. This whole conversation was getting really tedious. And dumb. Jack just wanted to be with Bunny. He wanted his fuzzy bunny.

"I want to see Bunny."

"You can't, Jack," Tooth said, blocking Jack's way.

"Why not?!" Jack exclaimed. "I love Bunny! Why won't you let me see him?!"

"Jack, listen to me! You don't really love Bunny! It was Cupid and her arrows! This isn't real!"

"Stop lying to me, and get out of my way!" Jack yelled.

"I can't do that, Jack!" Tooth shouted. "Baby Tooth, go get Sandy!"

Baby Tooth flew off.

"Why can't you just accept that Bunny and I are in love?!" Jack shouted. Tears were starting to pour over.

"Why are you doing this to us?" Jack asked.

"I'm sorry, Sweet Tooth, I really am," Tooth said, sadness in her eyes. "But you and Bunny aren't really in love."

"You don't know how I feel," Jack stated. "And even so, what's wrong with just letting me see Bunny?

Why-"

BAM! Jack got a face full of dream sand.

"Thank you, Sandy," Tooth sighed in relief.

Sandy nodded to her as his eyes drifted to Jack. Images of Bunny floated around his head.

XxXxXxXx

North had sent Tooth to check on Jack a few minutes before Sandy has to knock him out. North himself was going to check in Bunny. But, after hearing whatever commotion Bunny was causing in the office, North decided to stay away for his own safety.

North knew good and well that, in some level, both Bunny and Jack were aware that something was up. But the potion made the rest of their minds stop caring. The magic seemed to make Bunny even more violent.

At first, he was just scratching at the door and pulling on the door handle and lock. Then Bunny started bashing himself against the thick, metal door. North banged on the opposite side, yelling at him to stop, but that just seemed to egg Bunny on even more. And just when North was afraid Bunny had broken his arm or shoulder running into the door, it got real quiet all of a sudden.

Until North heard, what he could only assume was, Bunny tearing his office apart. And North was not happy about that. He heard his desk crash as it was pushed over, probably crashing into a book shelf. North heard the ice he used for sculpting shatter. He heard, what he assumed was, books flying all over the place. And so on.

North leaned against the wall and sighed. It's not that North was afraid of Bunny. Far from it, actually. Bunny was strong, but heck, North could snap the human-sized rabbit in half like a carrot without even trying. However, North didn't want a physical fight with Bunny. He wanted to reason with him. But it was clear from the Pooka's current state that reasoning was out of the question.

North shifted from his place of the wall in favor is the railing. drummed his fingers along the hard wood. He had already gotten the chocolate and toy arrows for the antidote. The others were going to get the rest very soon, however Tooth had wanted to go check of Jack, and North allowed her. Sandy went soon after when they heard a commotion coming from Jack's room down the hall.

Just then, Tooth and Sandy came down the hall.

"How es he?" North asked.

"Sleeping," Tooth said. "And he is not happy with us."

"Did you lock his door?" North questioned.

"Of course," Sandy said.

"Good," North stated. "Now ve can get to work. You both know vhat you have to get?"

"One bleeding heart flower and a dead rose," Tooth stated.

"A Valentine and Sweet Heart Candy," Sandy says.

"Perfect," North said. "And I vill stay and keep eye on our two lovebirds.

XXXXXXXXXX

"You did pay for those, right?" Toothiana asked Sandy as he opened the bag of candy.

"Of course I did," Sandy answers.

"It's alright, Tooth," North said. "Sandy, just put those into the pot."

Sandy did just that, along with his torn-up Valentine's Day card, one he had found discarded by a teenager, who was given it by an art club girl at his school.

The water in the heated pot changed color, from the blue it had previously been, to pink.

"Great!" Tooth exclaimed. "Now all we need is to get Jack and Bunny's DNA!"

Sandy nodded in agreement. "Jack is probably still asleep, so you could probably get a piece of hair or something from him."

"But what about Bunny?" Tooth asked. "How are we going to get DNA from him?"

"I will knock him out," Sandy said.

"Do Jack first," North added, stirring the contents of the pot. "Zat vay, ve can just focus on Bunny vhen zee time comes."

"I'll get right on it," Tooth said. "I'll take care of Jack. Be right back!"

With that, she was gone.

Sandy got up from where he was sitting. "Let's go wait for Tooth at the office. It'll take all three of us to get ahold of Bunny."

"I like zee vay you think, Sand Man," North said with a jolly chuckle.

Though, the jolliness quickly faded when they returned to North's office, the door open and the lock broken.
