Here is Dexter and Cupid.
Irreplaceable-Beyoncé-3:47
Dexter sighed as he bumped into one of Cupid's many belongings that was naturally, going to be left behind.
"I don't mean to sound rude but, could you move it along?" Dexter said as she passed her and the box that she was filling.
"I am…I apologize," The pink haired beauty looked down, "Dex, I…"
"Cupid, I'm not doing this again," Dexter sighed, "You made your choice, I'm here, Olympus is there. Now, get gone sooner than later…would you?"
If Cupid was going to be so quick to decide to fall in line with her 'pre-written story' err, 'pre-written myth' rather; then, Dexter wanted no part of it. It was one thing to be defying destiny together but, it was another to be on two completely different wave lengths over the subject.
No Diggity-Blackstreet-5:06
Dexter Charming had not saved any damsels and surely didn't plan on it. After a fling with Blondie Lockes had gone badly, he picked up sort of a reputation of as a 'princely player.' He was fine with that.
No one had fallen into the bounds of destiny and, that worked well enough. While Daring and Darling were doing their best to fairly decide who was going to rule the kingdom, Dexter wanted no part of it. He was currently in a dive bar on the seedier end of the land and was smoking a cigar.
"Can I get you a drink?" The bartender walked over to him.
"Sure, I'll have a shot King Daniel's…Cupid!?" Dexter's eyes widened in disbelief at seeing the pink haired girl that he hadn't seen since high school.
"Hey, Dexter," She blushed at being recognized, she thought that her pulled back hair and the glasses she had on were going to prove better at hiding her identity, no one had recognized her before.
"It's really you…" Dexter's cigar would have fallen out of his mouth if he hadn't remembered to take it out of his mouth.
"How about that drink?" Cupid began pouring him a shot of King Daniel's whiskey.
Dexter nodded yes and after a few drinks, he and Cupid were telling each other their current stories.
Maps-Maroon 5-3:08
You can't just lose someone, or, that was what Cupid had thought anyway…
She understood that the Rebel and Royal conflict was eventually going to blow up and cause chaos through the land but, now that it was over, shouldn't some sense of order have come back?
Using enchantments or any type of magic to find individuals was never foolproof. If someone else had touched the personal item used in a tracking spell, that could change it all.
When Cupid found Dexter's glasses, she hoped that she would be able to locate him. Or, maybe it would lead her to one of his siblings and they would be willing to help in the search?
"Come on, please," Cupid began burning the necessary herbs for her tracking spell, "Please, work."
Once the herbs had began to burn up and give off some steam, she dropped Dexter's glasses into her mixture.
I'm On Fire-AWOLNATION-2:34
Dexter's glasses fell off of his face, "I'm sorry, I…"
"N-no, don't be sorry," Cupid blushed as she picked them up, "It's okay, I'm kind of nervous, too."
"R-right," He nodded.
The pair made their way over to the bed and stumbled when it came to getting onto it. That was more because Dexter insisted that he would be fine without his glasses given his proximity to Cupid.
"Where were we?" Cupid offered as she did her best to get them back on track.
Deciding to go off book, Dexter grabbed her face and kissed her hard. They would figure this out, the same way they had figured out their love for one another.
Your Girl-Mariah Carey-2:46
The fact that Dexter's big blue eyes had the power to disorient her almost entirely was not something that Cupid took lightly.
A certain shyness overtook her and made her normally outspoken virtues fade into nothingness. But, she could not stand idly by as Dexter went on to ignore her for the rest of eternity…could she?
Cupid was certain that she could give him the world and more. Plus, she could take him to new heights, both literally and figuratively with the type of love and loving that she had in mind.
Even though Cupid should just take her own advice and put her feelings for Dexter down on parchment if she couldn't say it in person, she would much rather work up doing that.
Baddest Girl In Town-Pitbull feat. Mohombi and Winsin-3:02
"Oooooh…Excuse us all, it's the dude with the flyest chick around," Sparrow teased as Dexter walked into Storybooks where the guys had all agreed to meet.
"Good one, Sparrow," Dexter rolled his eyes, tempted to mention that it was only the millionth time this week that Sparrow had attempted that 'zinger.'
Cupid's wings made her very unique but, that wasn't the only thing about Cupid that made her stand out. She tended to know all love better than she did herself and, while that could be her undoing in some aspects, it wasn't always. She never had to improvise to solve an issue of love and, Dexter thought that was a skill worth paying attention to.
From her smile to her composure, Cupid had it all.
Only-Nicki Minaj feat. Chris Brown, Drake and Lil Wayne-5:11
Cupid leaned back in her throne. She giggled and then sighed pleasurably. This was lovely.
Before her in her throne room were lovers of all kinds making it know that their love was true and, she loved every moment of it. All were welcome in here, assuming that those invited here would only partake in the spread of honest love.
"Uh, Cupid..whoa!" Dexter almost tripped on some scattered rose petals.
"Dexter!" Cupid chimed, "Come here, sit next to me and watch your subjects. We are the rulers of love."
The rulers of love? That was something Dexter never would have thought of himself ever becoming years ago…
He gazed upon all those here to hear the wisdom of the queen of love. They were throwing rose petals, writing love letters, sharing kisses, strumming lyres and guitars waiting for their queen to either tell them to stop or request something else of them entirely.
A smile spread across Dexter's face and he indeed, walked over to his throne beside Cupid's and looked at all their followers; true believers of love and the pure magic contained within it.
U Remind Me-Usher-4:26
Cupid couldn't be more overjoyed to be calling Dexter hers. They were together, they were in a relationship and had the potential to go long and strong but, there was a slight air about the situation that made Cupid apprehensive…
She had plenty of short-lived flings and, while she'd never quite forgotten about Dexter, she now had it ingrained in her mind that disarming features of any sort were red flags.
Clearly, this didn't mean that all her relationships were going to crumble and fall but, from her track record so far, she had been playing through the same song and dance over and over again.
Perhaps, she and Dexter should take things a bit slower and if need be, they would be able to part amicably. Why love had to be such a complicated concept was something that Cupid doubted she would ever fully understand. However, she was prepared for the worst and was not at all scared to face 'the worst' once again.
Private Dancer-Danny Fernandes-3:18
Cupid had not been very excited to be hitting the strip club with her gal pals. Sure, sexy guys dancing all over was nice but, she was already in kind of a down in the dumps mood and wasn't sure how this would help cheer her up. That was, until Cupid's friends had decided to buy her a private dance to be had in one of the red curtain rooms at the back of the club.
"Chin up, buttercup," The dancer servicing Cupid caressed the side of her face.
That voice of his…She was certain that she had heard it before…Where…
As Cupid tried to place it, her hand slid down his firm pecs to his rock hard abs. Her eyes darted up and she realized that the mask he was wearing was throwing her off. It was hiding his eyes and, somehow muffling his voice.
With her other hand, she reached up and knocked the mask off of her mystery man.
"Dexter!?"
Leave You Alone-Young Jeezy feat. Ne-Yo-5:29
When they had fallen together, Dexter thought that being with Cupid wouldn't be an issue at all…but, then he met her family…
Cupid happened to have a family that consisted of Gods and demigods. To say that they were displeased with Cupid taking interest in a human would be the understatement of the century.
But, even when Cupid began to say that she would be renouncing her 'demigod/God like position', all hell only seemed to break loose.
She met the Charmings and, when King Charming and his wife were rather taken aback by the fact that she was not a human princess, let alone a simple human maiden, they no longer did much to show their displeasure in their younger son's choice of a lover.
"The entire universe is against our love…We might not be but, I know love. And, if this love isn't in the pages, it never will be. No matter how strong the want and ability to turn against destiny is…" Cupid started.
Dexter tried to protest only for Cupid to cut him off and to continue her speech.
"What I'm saying is, we are not meant to be part of each other's stories. We can still find love, I know it. Just not with each other. Goodbye, Dexter."
The bespectacled prince started after her only for Cupid to fly off.
I honestly had no plans to write this chapter. I do not at all like this couple and, it was funny that a lot of these are sad love songs. All I do is hit shuffle and let the music do what it does, it was interesting. I was more scared to not be able to write this very well but, I think I did a decent job if that. This is our second to last couple...who's left? Well, you'll just have to find out in the next and final chapter! Thank you again for all of your support!
