Valentine's day special

or

How Cupid got himself killed for doing his job...

Cupid had a special job to do today: make Elena Gilbert fall in love with Damon Salvatore, her actual boyfriend's big brother... Why did the Power That Be decide that they should ever be together? He didn't know... he didn't care either... It wasn't in his habit to question orders and he wasn't about to start now!

He entered the Boarding House and magically appeared flying up in the air in a corner of a living room. He grabbed his bow and discreetly shot an arrow in Elena's back while she was watching Damon.

"Well, looks like my job is done here!" He whispered with the self satisfaction he felt every time he successfully coupled up people that were on his list without being spotted.

"Hey, who are you? what did you do?" A green eyed vampire asked him.

He shot his eyes wide open...

He had been sighted...

The newly formed couple was oblivious to everything and Cupid was alone... He was about to disappear when the green eyed monster jumped in the air fangs out, caught him with his two hands and drained him dry.

Cupid fell to the floor...dead...

Well, that was what Stefan thought... If Cupid was dead then it meant that his couples would fall out of love right? Didn't this kind of things work like compulsion?

Stefan's eyed grew wide when the little cupid got up from the floor, fully healed, less than a minute after he was drained.

"Stupid, stupid little boy! You really thought you could kill me? I'm a Cupid! I'm LOVE and No one can kill love! As long as someone in the world feels love for someone else, then I will NOT be able to die and nobody will be able to kill me!" The little guy in a diaper wings, bow and arrow yelled at Stefan.

Damon and Elena were still oblivious to everything...

"What? ... But... How..." Stefan mumbled.

"I want my revenge! You will regret ever trying to kill me!" Cupid said as his eyes shone with malice.

"And what can you do? You're a lover, not a hater!" Stefan replied smugly.

"Oh, I can do more than you think with love... Don't you know that un-required love hurts also? I can make you love anyone in this world... You won't be able to resist it... Now... Who could your punishment turn out to be..." Cupid said thoughtfully.

"No wait please I'm sorry!" Stefan said quickly.

"Sorry doesn't cut it boy! You tried to hurt love... Love will now hurt you!" Cupid said as he looked through his weird magical parchment.

"Please... You've already hurt me by making my girl fall for my brother!" Stefan pleaded.

Cupid was ignoring him.

"I know... We'll start by making you fall for you're old buddy Klaus!" Cupid said before he tapped Stefan's forehead with his index finger and left, leaving a trail of small red hearts behind him.

"What? No please!... Wait, what do you mean by start by..." Stefan yelled but the little angelic looking love man was already gone.


What was he going to do? Stefan tried to lock himself in his room and to resist the urge he had to run to Klaus but it was getting hard with each passing second...

Of course he knew that Klaus would never love him back... How could he when he was so in love with Caroline Forbes...

Caroline...

Caroline used to be one of his friends... She still was yesterday... Now he just wanted her dead and out of the way so he could be with Klaus...

No...

He had to stop and fight this... it wasn't real... That's what Stefan was trying to convince himself of...

After a few hours, he couldn't hold it anymore and he ran right out of the house and to the mansion, deciding that it wouldn't be that bad to give in for just a few hours... Later Cupid would be satisfied and forgive him... He would just have to beg Klaus or one of the other Mickealson's to compel him to forget!

Yes, That's it!

Stefan knocked on the door of the Mickealson mansion and learned that Klaus wasn't in...

"He's at the Grill, flirting with Caroline... again!" The maid told him.

Stefan jumped back in his car and drove to the Grill... Why did he want to hurt Caroline? Why couldn't he stop himself? It was like the fake feelings in him were controlling everything about him...his every actions...

He entered the Grill only to find Klaus and Caroline sharing a drink.

"You mind if I cut in?" Stefan asked Caroline.

"What?" Caroline didn't understand...

Was Stefan dismissing her? Did he really use this 'dance' line to get her to leave?

"What do you want mate? I'm busy!" Klaus said in a tone that didn't hide the fact he was annoyed by Stefan's presence.

"Oh come on Love... You can't actually want to be with her do you?" Stefan asked, fully flirting now.

"I know I'm repeating myself here but what?" Caroline said with shocked wide eyes.

"Caroline, why don't you do us a favor and go home now?" Stefan told her as he put his hand on Klaus' knee.

Klaus jumped out of his seat and grabbed Caroline's arm and kept her by his side.

"What's wrong with you Stefan? Are you trying to be funny?" He asked his old friend.

"I'm just trying to show you what our destiny is Klausy... We're meant to be... I lov..." Stefan was cut by Klaus.

"Don't say anymore Stefan! I don't want to hear it! Caroline, please stay here! Don't leave me alone with him!" The hybrid said as he rushed out of the Grill with Caroline.

"You can't run away from our Love Klaus!" Stefan yelled as he ran after them, making everyone turn to him with raised eyes and amused looks.

It went on like this for a few hours... Stefan running after Klaus who was desperately trying to hide from his friend from the 20's. They must have ran into every single street of Mystic Fall's before Klaus locked himself in his house. At some point, Caroline grew tired of running with Klaus so she went home, telling him 'good luck' with escaping what now looked like a super crazy Stefan!

Stefan kept on making up new cute nicknames for Klaus and the hybrid didn't understand anything ... Why was this happening? What was wrong with Stefan?

This little charade went on for a couple of weeks, after which Stefan was miserable and Cupid appeared in front of him and, with the simple pressure of a finger, took his unwanted love away.


Stefan didn't wait for anything else to happen and he jumped in his car, driving like a maniac until he finally reached Forks and the Cullen's. He quickly explained the situation to them and they gladly offered him a place to stay until he sorted things out.

"It's over now Stefan, don't worry!" Esmee said gently.

"I wish I could believe you but I can't help but think that this thing is not close to being over..." Stefan replied just as Cupid appeared in front of him.

"Oh he's so cute!" Bella exclaimed before she looked down and settled herself in Edward's arm, not willing to upset the little creature.

"Thank you young beauty! To reward you for your impeccable taste I'm going to make Stefan's next punishment a way to help you getting rid of an un-required love interest!" Cupid said.

"Mike?" Emmett asked.

"Eric?" Alice asked.

"Tyler?" Jasper asked.

"Jacob?" Edward asked.

"Seth?" Esmee asked.

"Embry?" Carlisle asked.

They were all having a lot of fun watching Bella blush.

"Well, that's quite the fan club you've got there!" Stefan joked, forgetting he was trying to get Cupid's attention away from him.

"Well, how about the most persistent of them all?" Cupid replied.

"Mike then!" Rosalie said.

"Jacob for sure!" Jasper said.

Then the family started a small argument about which one of those two boys were the most persistent.

"Mike gave up a couple of times... Jacob is the most persistent!" Bella said, deciding to break up the fight they were having.

"Exactly charming Bella.. Pretty AND Smart... Miss Hale you should take a page out of Bella's book!" Cupid said before he looked at Stefan with a glint in his eyes and taped his forehead once more before disappearing, barely escaping Rosalie's rage full attack.

"Um... It's okay... As long as I don't know where to find him... I can resist this!" Stefan said, trying to convince himself.

"Oh... Um... Stefan I'm sorry but Jacob is supposed to come and pick me up in a few minutes... He insisted... I couldn't say no without hurting his feelings and being rude..." Bella said, looking truly sorry.

"Looks like the mutt is early!" Edward announced as someone knocked on the door.

Of course it was Jacob...

Emmett answered the door and found it funny to invite the young boy to come in...

Stefan couldn't look away... He was having a harder time resisting than with Klaus... Why? How come he found this Jacob guy hot? why did he want to kiss him and touch him? He couldn't get any kind of control on what he was feeling or doing...

Everyone else looked amused...

"What's going on?" Jacob asked as Stefan stood up and took his shirt off.

Why? He had no idea but he wanted to do it.

"Come and sit right here my Love and I'll explain it all to you!" Stefan said like a love sick fool, looking a freaked out Jacob right in the eyes.

"What? Are you nuts? Who are you?" Jacob asked backing off slowly while Stefan walked toward him.

"I'm your love sweet biceps man of mine... Come with me and I'll rock your world!" Stefan said with a flirting smirk he copied from his brother.

Jacob looked at Bella and the rest of the Cullen's for help or at the very least an explanation but they were all too busy laughing their asses off, even the always calm doctor.

Jacob ran out of the house while Stefan flexed his arms.

Stefan caught up with him just outside his friend's house and backed the poor wolf against a tree.

Once again, Stefan couldn't control his actions... He tried his best to fight it but he couldn't do a thing about it.

"What do you want leech?" Jacob said, unable to break free.

"Oh... giving out nicknames already wolf-man? Well... What I want is pretty simple...You..." Stefan whispered against Jacob's lips as he sweetly kissed him.

Suddenly Stefan was able to break free for a while and told Jacob:

"Run now before I loose control and have my way with you!"

Jacob didn't need to be told twice and ran away, shifting on the way.

Stefan managed to walk back inside and when the Cullen were done laughing, Emmett and Jasper got a hold of him so he didn't escape.

"I'm so tired of this! I'm sorry okay! Do you hear me Cupid? I'm sorry for trying to kill you! Please just stop this insanity right now!" Stefan yelled at the sky when suddenly Cupid appeared in front of him.

"Fine... I think you've suffered enough! After all, I did make your girlfriend fall for your brother... How about I give you one month of blissful happy love? Let's see... Who is single on my list right now..." Cupid said, looking at his parchment.

"A girl please! And not too old!" Stefan said quickly.

"Fine... Oh, I get it! I've got this girl, Hannah Montana... Or Miley Cyrus... they're the same... Okay, here you go... She's in California, here, that's her address!" Cupid said as he handed Stefan a small note before he disappeared.

"Oh, what have I gotten myself into..." Stefan complained as everyone started laughing again.


Stefan was on the road, driving toward California.

Why?

Because he couldn't stay in Forks now that he had emotionally scared the future Alpha off... he didn't think he would be able to stand another minute of Emmett making fun of him... Even sweet Bella was laughing at him, how was that any right?

He also couldn't go back to Mystic Fall's right away... he needed to let time pass in order for people to forget about his little public humiliation during his pursuit of Klaus...

Would he ever be able to face everyone ever again?

Just as he was about to put on the Hannah Montana T-shirt he had bought, he heard a loud, annoying, ringing noise...


Stefan woke up as he fell from his bed trying to reach for his alarm clock to turn it off.

It was nothing... Just another Valentine's day Nightmare...

He slowly walked down the stairs and was greeted by the sight of Damon and Elena laughing happily as they both held the same red arrow with a heart in the end.

"Guys... what is going on?" Stefan asked with a careful tone.

"Oh Stefan isn't it great? Cupid paid us a little visit this morning!" Damon explained as Elena jumped in the arms of the blue eyed Salvatore and started kissing him with all she had.

Right behind the couple, the Chipmunks were clapping and cheering the couple up...

RRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN NNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Stefan sat up in his bed... A nightmare in a nightmare... It had been a while since he had any of those...

He slowly got up, showered, got dressed and looked at his cell phone only to see the date:

February, 14th

He didn't have a present for Elena... he also knew that Damon already had one ready... he even knew that Theodore helped him pick it up... Should he be jealous that sweet little Theodore obviously prefered his big brother?

He shook his head to clear it, now wasn't the time to think about this, he needed to concentrate on the date and what he was going to get Elena!

If only Cupid really existed he could ask him for some advises...

What could he get her... Did she even want anything for him or were his dream only a way to warn him that she was slowly falling for Damon and that he was a lost cause?

He shook his head.

Jewelry, flowers and chocolates... All classics that she would love... and he didn't even have to drain Cupid for the idea!


Had he looked up, Stefan would have seen the same Cupid he had been dreaming off.

The little angel wanted to warn Stefan about his next assignment and after Stefan's reaction to it in the dream he gave the vampire, he had decided to play a little with him...

Now Cupid popped out of Stefan's room and appeared in the Gilbert house were he touched Elena Gilbert's forehead with his fingers, awaking in her head her feelings for Damon.

Arrows were for people that needed to fall in love, Elena just needed for her feelings to be let out and that's exactly what Cupid did.

For the next few hours, Cupid stayed and watched as Elena got ready and left her house to join the Salvatore brothers for lunch.

Cupid followed her and watched as she entered the big house, got hugs and flowers from the cute little Chipmunks and stopped in her track once in front of the two brothers.

It was quite entertaining to see the human girl stop dead in her tracks and hesitate in who she would hug first.

"Elena? What's going on?" Stefan asked her, wondering why she wasn't running in her arms.

"Hum... I hate to do this today of all days but we need to talk..." She told the green eyed vampire who had killed Cupid in his dreams.

Cupid watched hope rise in Damon's eyes while sadness rose in his brother.

"No, it's okay, I get it... I can't say I wasn't warned!" Stefan said.

"What do you mean? " Damon asked him at the same time Elena did.

"I guess last night's dream really was a warning from Cupid.. I swear I'll kill that little fucker next chance I get!" Stefan growled as he turned around, thinking of draining a few Gremlins to pass off his anger.

"Now, didn't you learn anything from the dream Stefan? Do you really want me to do it for real? That part was the truth, you can't kill LOVE!" Cupid said, making his presence known.

"Oh, he's so cute!" Elena gushed.

"Cupid man, nice to see you again!" Damon said in a surprised tone.

"You know each others?" Stefan and Elena asked in the same voice.

"Yes, Damon helped me out a few years ago... A dark angel was working on breaking up every single couple I had created and Damon helped me putting them back together and killing the dark angel. I told him I owed him one and today I'm repaying him." Cupid replied.

"So Elena's feelings aren't real, you've faked them didn't you? You're manipulating her!" Stefan exclaimed.

"No, I just helped her make the decision she would have ended up doing anyway a little sooner than it was supposed to happen because it would have been too late. She would have realised her destiny was with Damon too late and everyone would have been hurt, not just the 3 of you. Now Stefan I suggest you calm down and act nice to me or I won't give you your destined one before a few more years!"

"NOT HANNAH MONTANA!" Stefan yelled, making Elena and Damon look at him like he was crazy and the Chipmunks smile.

"Don't worry, that was just for my own entertainment!" Cupid smirked in a very Damon like manner.

"Who is she?" Stefan demanded.

"Now, why would I tell you anything now? You're going to need to accept that Elena and Damon are destined to be together or you'll never meet the one who's meant for you!" Cupid said before he waved goodbye and popped out of the room, leaving a trail of red heart behind him.

"Hey, what about me? I wanted to ask him when I'll meet love!" Alvin complained.

"Don't worry buddy, I know him, he'll be back soon to check up on us... You can ask him then!" Damon said gently.

"Can I ask him too?" Theodore asked shyly.

"Of course you can buddy!" Damon said.

"I think I'll go for a little walk!" Stefan said before he left the house, leaving his brother and Elena to discuss their new relationship while the Chipmunk ran back happily to their game room.


So... I know this is a crazy idea... I wanted to do something special for Valentine's day!

what did you think of it? Laughed? Hated it? Liked it? Loved it?

As for Hannah Montana... I let my sister choose (I asked her for a girl that Stefan could fall in love with to amuse us and make fun of him!) and she chose her... if you don't like her...picture someone else!

Review please?

Happy Valentine's day to all of you...even if you are, like me, single once again on this beautiful day... (I personally have come to hate it!)

Keep on reading... I've got a couple more chapters to come up! Can you guess? a flashback to the 20's with a Disney and some Looney toones (bugs bunny, Taz,...) Also the Ninja Turtles might make an appearance in a later chapter...

Suggestions?
