"Nanami-chan! Chris-chan!" Aya called from behind the two ladies. (A/N: It's rare they got along in this scene.)

"Good morning, Aya-chan!" Christine greeted happily showing her cute wide smile.

"Well, what's all the fuss about?" Nanami asked. Aya stopped in front of them, trying to catch her breath.

"Both of you! Look at what I got!" she said excitedly, holding out a bottle of lotion in front of the two.

"A lotion??" the two said in chorused while giving Aya their confused faces.

"What about that lotion?" Nanami inquired.

"hehe.. I really expect for that reaction. Well, as you can see it's a bottle of lotion, right?"

"Yah, right..then?" Nanami asked again.

"Ah! Ah! It's no just a simple LOTION! In fact, it's a LOve poTION!"

"Huh? Really?!" asked Christine excitedly.

"Yup! Would you believe that?" Aya answered excitedly as Christine was.

"And how does that thing works?" asked Nanami in a rather I'm-not-interested-but-just-curioustone.

"It's very simple! According to the old woman, if you have got the chance that you and someone in the opposite sex would hold this bottle at the same time, and then he/she will fall for you for at least a week. She said this is like a link of two souls designated to be together. It resembles cupid who connects people meant to be one. Also, the old woman said that this has been tested for many ages now and was proven to be true," Aya energetically informed them making Chris-chan fell in her deep thoughts of Kanata and her falling in love with each other together with her starry bright eyes and her pinkish flowery background, and don't forget that sheepish blush.

"Oh really? Where'd you buy that thing, Aya-chan?" Nanami interrupted.

"Really Nanami-chan? I didn't know you have someone you like.."

"Silly Aya-chan.. I don't have any plans of getting a love potion for me. It's for-" Nanami continued her dialogue whispering to Aya about her big plans so that Christine won't get the chance to hear it. Besides, she's still drowned with her imaginations, you know.

It was Saturday. The gang's all here in Saionji temple! (A/N: What a coincidence!!... hehehe)

Santa had plans of staying at the temple for that day because he's gonna show some stuff to Kanata and I bet it will take the whole Saturday including the night. Aya and Nanami forced Miyu to have a sleepover at the temple for some girl stuff to talk to and also, Christine joined in. She had big plans in mind too.

"Well, I guess everybody's here." Said Santa as he was approaching the bottom of the stairs of the temple where he saw Aya, Nanami, and Christine.

"Hello, everyone! What brought you all here?" Santa greeted the girls while obviously having a hard time carrying his luggage.

"Hello Santa-kun!" the three girls said in chorused and bowed gently.

The four of them took the stairs up to the temple. When they reach the top, they saw Kanata sweeping at the temple entrance while Miyu was actually holding Ruu in her arms. After seeing this kind of a perfect family scenario, a black and pink creepy aura came out from their back, which obviously came from Hanakomachi, but before she could uproot a tree, a smiling Mr. Hosho (which is actually Wanya) came into the picture which instantly made her returned to her composure and bowed politely before the elder.

The gang went inside the temple. The girls were having chitchat at Miyu's room while Santa was showing Kanata his favorite antique stuffs. The two decided to have it in the temple backyard to avoid the deafening noise from the other group.

The night came. Miyu's group went to the living room of the house and watched their favorite 8 o'clock show. The boys came and joined in. Their faces were all glued to the television as if not letting any scene unseen except for Kanata. He was kinda distracted and uncomfortable with Christine's hook upon his arms. She did enjoy the love story from the show that made her felt like heaven while imagining Kanata and her on those scenes. Miyu was just beside Christine ignoring the awkward picture just right at her side and concentrating on the show. Aya and Nanami were having a silent conversation with their eyes (A/N: you know, instead of using the mouth to speak, but rather the eyes to say something. It's really hard to do that because it needs both people to have some kind of 'one mind' to understand each other). Santa, well, don't mind him his eyes are always glued on the TV.

They all fell silent not until Aya eventually broke the deafening muteness by complimenting outrageously with the current scene. The leading lady was kneeling in front of an elder woman while crying in sadness asking for apology because of ruining the great family's honor. An elder was scolding her for not saying anything or explaining the truth. She has to tell the truth for goodness sake or else she will be exiled from the great house.

"Hey! That should not be! The girl should tell the elders her feelings towards the Prince. It's getting complicated though. Why is she saying nothing? Arrgghh.. The nerve!!" she stood up in anger and exclaimed her thoughts. All heads turned to her as if lightning stormed out from the ground. She felt all eyes looking at her and slightly turning her head on the viewers and shyly went back to sit in the soft cushion feeling ill at ease with the recent occurrence.

"Sorry, guys" Aya said in an embarrassed tone.

Unknown to all, Kanata caught a small bottle of an unfamiliar content after that storm Aya caused. It slightly touched his shoulder getting his attention and automatically catching the thing. He was a bit confused to whom he should hand it over. Despite of the darkness of the room, he managed to read the label of the bottle with the little help of the light from the television. It read "Special Lotion." He then got the idea that one of the girls owned it.

"Special Lotion?!"

He took a look at the girls who seem to be concentrating on the show. Nanami was just sitting beside Aya who seem very agitated. The excitement was very visible on their sparkling eyes. Then Miyu... She was quite the whole time, not even making any single move from the start. Did she absorb the story that much?

Kanata could only see the other side of her face, but it was so goddamn beautiful though. It was a different Miyu - serious, quiet and calm, from the cheerful, forgetful and clumsy one. He can't help but stare at her face. Kami, help me, but she is just so stunningly beautiful. Miyu, on the other hand, felt two eyes looking at her. She felt a little uneasy but did not show it much.

Kanata snapped back to reality realizing he had fond of staring at her. Before he knew it, the show ended and all of them were to take a rest. Sooner than the girls will exit the room, Kanata called Miyu that made the others stopped from their tracks.

"Hey, Miyu, you forgot this," he said after showing a white bottle in front of her.

"Eh? What's that?" Miyu asked with one eyebrow raised. She does not have a clue where that thing came from. Right after seeing the bottle, Aya and Nanami search for an immediate excuse of how they will make their plan a success. It seems like fate is shining on them.

"Oh!" Aya exclaimed. "That is mine, actually. Miyu, can you please hand it over to me?"

"Uh? Oh, okay.."

The two girls watched intently, not even blinking an eye as Kanata and Miyu both extended their hands and touched the bottle at the same time. With the sudden gesture, both felt weird. Something unexplainable is sending them nerves on their spines. What was it?

Not much of a cliffhanger, neh? I am sorry for the boring narration. It is my first time to write my own story. I hope you like it. Please tell me if something's wrong with this chappie. I do much appreciate reviews. Thank you for reading and reviewing (hopefully)!
