Phoebe and Chandler arrived to Phoebe's apartment, Chandler wasn't so sure if he wanted to do this. It was Phoebe, she could have any weird stuff that he would be drinking and as much as he joked about dying he didn't want to die today.

"It's for Monica" He reminded himself. Chandler sat on the couch as Phoebe walked into the kitchen.

"So Pheebs" He said casually. "This 'elixir' you talk about would make Monica to love me right?" He asked.

"Not just Monica, all women will be crazy in love with you" She shouted from the kitchen.

Chandler felt pretty smug right now... What was he thinking? This was obviously a scam!! But still the thought of many women in love with him was nice...

"Even you?" He asked with a grin. Phoebd snorted. "Yeah no, it could take way more than a bottle of elixir for me to..." She said until he saw his clearly annoyed face.

"Okay, I'm letting it rest on the kitchen and now I will tell you the instructions of how to drink it" She said sitting next to him.

"There are instructions to drink it?" He asked with a frown. Phoebe nodded.

"Of course! It's not just a beverage, is a magic elixir okay? MAGIC" Chandler got worried at the way she emphazised 'Magic'.

"Okay..." He answered. "So, first you gently shake the bottle, then you remove the cap but be careful! Don't let the steam get away! then you bring it to your lips and in little sips you drink it" Phoebe explained using an empty bottle to practice. She then gave it to Chandler to try.

"All right... I think I get it" He said taking the bottle from her hands. "Man, I knew Phoebe was weird... But not this weird..." He thought.

Am I really doing this? Taking Phoebe's advice about a love potion? That she took from a legend? I think I lost my head... It is really worth it? What if she gives me poison? Nah... She likes me enough to not kill me... Right? But this thing, this beverage could only be selled by a quack and only be bought by an idiot. I guess I'm an idiot if I came here in the first place... And I'm also an idiot by believing that Monica could love me back...

"Oh" A timer rang. "The elixir is ready, wait here" Phoebe said walking quickly towards the kitchen.

Chandler didn't have much time to think of it when Phoebe returned with a bottle full with a blue glistening liquid. It looked kind of gross and fascinating.

"Here is the magic beverage" She said handing him the bottle. Chandler took it suspiciously.

"Thanks Pheebs... Although this doesn't look very... healthy" He said turning the bottle on his hand to examine it. It shined and it was glossy. It was liquid enough to not seem like liquid soap, but it actually looked like it would taste like soap.

"Don't worry is harmless! I told you is magic! don't be a wuss Chandler. Are you a chicken?" Phoebe said challening.

"Who am I? Marty Mcfly?" He said sarcastically. "Look it is not like I drink blue shiny things all the time okay?" He said looking at the bottle again.

"Listen, I'm sure this will help you win Monica's love now I need to warn you for you to not drink it in a public place okay" She said patting his shoulder. Chandler looked at her confused.

"Why?"

"Well... Because you know that messing with love is a dangerous thing, we don't want the authorities to intervine, get it?" She winked at him.

"Sure... Oh! Because all the ladies will be chasing the Chan-Chan man?" He asked with a grin.

Phoebe thought about it for a minute. "Yeah, that's why" She said with a fake smile.

"Okay... How much will it take to make effect?" Chandler asked actually curious.

"Oh you know a while" Phoebe replied.

"A while?"

"Now that you mention it... 2 weeks top"

"Okay well thanks Pheebs, I will drink it in my apartment then"

"Good idea! Now bye gallant! Every woman will love you in a couple of days" Phoebe said pushing him out of the door.

Then she sat on her couch again with a cup of tea on her hand.

"What edible glitter, really strong peach schnapps, lots of sugar and blue food coloring can do for a miserable man" She said with a triumphant smirk. "I'm a genious"

.:ooOOoo:.

Chandler didn't want to drink the elixir right away, every time he looked at the bottle his stomach flipped. He hid it on the back of his closet, it's not like many people entered his room, but still. He went to work like usually but the only thing he could think about was Monica and this so-called "Elixir of Love". Could he really win her heart? Maybe he was cheating with all this magic stuff, but he didn't have a choice... As crazy as it sounded it was his only chance at having Monica's affection.

I need to do this... Again I don't think Phoebe wants me dead... Besides what's the worst that can happen'? Oh... Don't go there... Okay if it doesn't work, I will find a date that's more on my level... But if it works I don't want Monica to be heartbroken if she breaks up with Richard... But she will love me... She wouldn't be hurt... Am I really thinking this will work? I'm such a loser!! What's wrong with me? ... Lets don't go there either. I know Joey has a date tonight... I could be alone in the apartment... Okay tonight I will drink the magic elixir.

Chandler went to his apartment right after work, when he arrived he looked at Monica's door. No, I can't go right now, I have important things to do.

He opened the door and he found Joey coming out of his bedroom.

"Hey man" He said as he picked up his jacket.

"Hey Joe, are you leaving?" He asked with a forced smile.

"Yes I have a date, see ya later"

"Wait... When are you gonna come back?"

Joey frowned. "I don't know later"

"Okay..." Chandler said unsure. Joey shrugged and left.

Chandler let out a breath he didn't know he was holding. It was time.

He went straight away towards his closet and took the bottle. He remembered Phoebe's instruction.

Gently shake the bottle.

He did, he watched as the liquid turned inside the bottle shinning brightly.

Remove the cap but be careful that the steam doesn't get away and quickly bring it to your mouth.

This was the part he feared, what if it tasted awful? Chandler closed his eyes removed the cap and put the bottle on his lips.

Now drink it in little sips.

He drank it. The taste burned inside his mouth... It wasn't bad, it was actually quite tasteful... He felt warmness in his stomach, he felt fuzzy and his tongue burned in a pleasant way.

"Wow this is really good" He said out loud looking at the bottle. "Maybe... I can drink a little more" He said drinking again in long gulps.

After he finished he licked his lips and looked at the bottle. His eyes widened.

He almost drank the whole bottle, there was a quarter of the liquid left. He stood up quickly and felt dizzy all over.

"Damn that elixir was strong"

The phone rang and Chandler picked up by instinct.

"Hello?"

"Well, Hello My Bing-a-Ling!! HAHAHAHAHA"

He could recognize that voice anywhere.
