8 Cupid Is as Cupid Does

CHAPTER EIGHT CUPID IS AS CUPID DOES Franny couldn't wait to show her new valentines to her friends. Miss Shelly followed the screams. "See?" Franny said. "Cupid." Miss Shelly gasped. "I had a hard time choosing the mushy thing for him to say, but then I figured that nothing was mushier than guts." Miss Shelly was speechless. "Do you want to see the rest?" Franny asked. Miss Shelly nodded.

FRANNY'S VALENTINE VALENTINE, YOU REALLY CAUGHT MY EYE! Nice CATCH! VALENTINE, YOU'RE SWELL. I HOPE THE SWELLING GOES DOWN. VALENTINE, YOU'VE STOLEN MY HEART. NOW GIVE IT BACK.

VALENTINE, I HOPE YOU ARE PUNCTURED TO A SATISFACTORY DEGREE. YOU WON'T BE MY VALENTINE? WELL, SUTURE SELF. VALENTINE, YOU'RE SUCH A TREASURE. MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE BURIED.

"Franny," Miss Shelly said finally, "you'd better have a look at this." And she handed Franny a real valentine.
