All my life I've wondered if Cupid was really real. It is known that cupid's bow and arrow could make a couple fall in love. I thought it was silly believing in that kind of stuff. It was not until this day, that I, Sara Jones, came close to experiencing the love from cupid's arrow.
It was a sunny afternoon, when my family and I were vacationing in Huntington Beach for the summer. We had rented a timeshare near the beach, even though it was quite relaxing, I was getting a little bored. Even my sisters and I couldn't do anything to entertain ourselves. It was late at night, and I decided to take a walk on the beach by myself. Little did I know, trouble was flying around.
As I stepped outside, I heard laughter and music coming from the neighboring house. Men and women swarmed the house, with wine cups in their hands and as i looked closer, their was a boy standing outside on the back porch. As i could see his face in the moonlight, he looked about my age. He was tall, lean, and athletic-looking, he wore a button up and nice slacks dressed for a party. As I continued to stare, he noticed me and caught my eye. I didn't realize how long we were staring at each other, until he asked my name. As soon as he talked, I felt something poke my side and I looked to see wings fluttering above me. The boy had not noticed, as we had been in the dark. I told him Sara. His name was Elijah. And then I got this funny feeling to rush over and kiss him, but i hadn't even known him for 2 seconds! I was wondering what was wrong with me, especially since I wasn't the affectionate type.
Elijah came to me, slowly he walked, as he saw my face in the moonlight. Then something more powerful struck me, and it was love at first sight.
