Thanks for the request hun.

Normally I wouldn't update this often in one day, but since I love you all, and I don't have anything else to do, have another update.

Requester didn't say, but I'll make the reader gender neutral in this one. Enjoy~!

I think we can all agree Cupid is the mom of the group.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"...And that should be it!" The angel smiles sweetly at the teen, who takes the box of rainbow cookies from him.

She set a twenty dollar bill on the counter before turning to give him one last wave before she leaves. "Keep the change!"

Cupid smiles and removes his apron. "Today was a big day! Fall really is the best season to satisfy your sweet tooth." He giggles to himself, returning the money into the cash register.

The petite skeleton begins to wipe down the counters, removing any crumbs or flour that may had fallen onto them.

His wings flutter as he twirls on his heels, doing a little dance as he dusts the bakery. The sweet strawberry scent filling his senses making the angel in a chipper mood.

He perks up at the sound of the little bell above the door ringing, meaning a customer must have entered.

"Oh! I'm so sorry but we're closed for the day! I- huh?" The angel looks down seeing a small child no older then ten.

They were soaked from the rain. Their hair matted and dirt covering their bare feet and face.

They wore a T-shirt long enough to go to their knees, their knees were cut and bruised.

Cupid quickly walks over to the child and bends down to their level. "Oh goodness, are you alright? Where are your parents?"

The child sniffles and rubs their cheek with their small hand. "I d-dont.." They mutter, hiccuping.

"Did you loose them? Or.." He takes a second look and sighs. This kid must have been homeless.. Or abandoned. Why kind of sick person would toss a child out into the cold?

"Look.. Let's get you something to eat okay?" Cupid tilts his head and holds the child's hand with his gloved one.

The child nods their head and allows him to lead them into the employee lounge.

When there, the kid takes a seat on the soft pink couch. Cupid quickly looks for a medkit. He didn't want those cuts to get infected.

Once he finds the medkit, he grabs a box of chocolate muffins from one of the shelves and sets it on the coffee table in front of the child with a glass of chocolate milk.

"Here. Go ahead and eat, you need your strength. Can I see your knees for a second?" Cupid asks, once again sitting on the floor by the child's side.

They nod their head and take a muffin, it looked large in their tiny hands. Luckily the angel had baked them this morning so they wouldn't be stale.

The child quickly ate it like they hadn't eaten in days. And they probably haven't.

After placing Band-Aids on their knees, Cupid left them to eat so he can get to his cell phone.

He really should've called the police.. But knowing them, they'd dump the kid off at a run down orphanage.. And they'd get adopted by some ass hat.

He leaned against the doorway and kept an eye on the child from the corner of his socket.

"Hello?"

"Hallow its me. Um, this is important.. Can you come pick me up from work?" Cupid clutches his chest, his heart thudding in worry.

"Sure, vwhats going on?" His husband asks with worry in his voice.

"I've got a kid with me. And.. I'm not sure where they came from but, they were starved and injured. Nothing serious! Just a few cuts.. But.. I want to get them home safe and sound." Cupid's eyes linger on the child, a light frown on his face.

"Vwhat? Shouldn't you just take them to the police?" Hallow asks, and the angel can hear the sound of keys jingling.

"No. I think the kid is homeless, and you know they'll send them so some shitty orphanage.." Cupid sighs.

"...You're probably right. Just stay there, I'll be there in fifteen." Hallow says. "Come on Pumpkin."

Cupid nods his head. "I'll see you soon, okay?"

"Alright. I'm going to drop Pumpkin off at Romeos, I don't want to freak her out." Hallow replies.

"Okay. Bye."

"Bye."

He hangs up the phone with a sigh before pocketing his phone.

The angel takes a seat next to the child, resting a hand on their shoulder. "I know its probably hard for you but can.. Can you tell me how long its been like this?"

The child seems to tear up again. "...My mommy wanted me safe. Away from the bad man.. I don't remember.." They say and quickly hug his side.

The angel decides not to press the matter. He wraps a comforting wing around them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So.. Vwhat are vwe going to do now?" Hallow asks the angel, looking at the child in the corner of his socket.

Cupid shrugs his shoulders. "I'm keeping them. No child deserves a life on the streets.. We're adopting them."

The vampire's ears fold back sadly. "Alright. If they are going to stay they'll need a name.. Do they even have a name?" He asks.

Cupid thinks for a moment. "I don't think so.. Hey, lovely?"

The child perks up from their coloring book. "Yes Cupid?"

"You wouldn't happen to have a name would you?" He asks.

The child shakes their head.

"Vwell.. I'll leave you two to think things over. I'm going to make dinner, you can set them up in the guestroom Alright? We'll get  a proper room for them the next time vwe go shipping." Hallow kisses the angel's cheek then returns to the kitchen.

Cupid sits on the floor next to the child with a soft smile. "What are you coloring there Lovely?"

The child smiles. "A f/c butterfly!"

Cupid giggles. "Its beautiful. Just like you Lovely." He pats their head. "Have you decided on what you'd like to go by?"

"I like the name you've been calling me!" Lovely smiles.

Cupid smiles back. "Lovely it is."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The angel hums to himself as he swirls pink and purple stripes onto the two layered cake. Heart shaped candies were laid on the highest layer.

The bell above the door in the bakery rings for the sixth time today. "I'll be right with you!"

The angel wipes his forehead and lays the icing bag to the side before he quickly jogs out behind the counter. "How can i- oh! Lovely, what a pleasant surprise!"

The teenager smiles up at him bashfully. "Heya dad. I stopped by the thrift shop after school and well.. I got you a little something." They hand him a small box.

"Sweetie, you didn't have to get me anything. Seeing your beautiful face is enough." Cupid rests his hand on his hip, taking the box in his free hand.

"Yeah I know, but I wanted to! You know.. For all the things you've done for me.." They bashfully pull on a stray piece of hair.

Cupid smiles and opens the box, only for his eyes to widen. Inside was a golden heart locket.

Flipping open the locket, there was a small photo of him, Hallow, Pumpkin and Lovely all at the vacation house down by the beach.

Cupid feels tears begin to swell as he looks down at it. "Oh sweetie.. This is amazing.. Thank you." He pulls them into a side hug.

"Dad! You're welcome! But you just got flour on my hoodie!" They laugh and pat his back.

"Sorry sweetie!" Cupid pulls away with a bashful smile. "I've been busy today." 

"Its alright. I've got tons of them! Now I've got to get going, Pumpkin wants to check out the cafe that just opened down the road!" Lovely sends him one last wave. "I love you dad!"

"Love to you sweetie!" He waves back to them before their out the door.

As they begin to walk off with their older sister, Pumpkin, Cupid can't help but feel his heart  flutter with warmth.

End! I hope you enjoyed I really liked writing this one.
