A Lovely Mix Up

Chapter 2: Love Potion?

Disclaimer: I Don't own Inuyasha! Stop rubbing it in!

"Grrr…I despise today so much right now!"

Kagome said as she walked down the sidewalk drenched to the bone.

She sighed to herself as she rounded the corner to her block.

Shops lined the street. There was a small grocery store, and next to it was a small CD store that looked pretty run down by the looks of it.

Across the street from there was a little clothes/jewelry store. And right smack in the middle of them looked to be a gigantic tent that seemed to closed, except for a small light glowing beneath the curtain.

'Hmm? When did that get there?' Kagome stopped abruptly to stare at the foreign tent.

It was a very pretty one at that. It was a dark ruby red sheet with a golden trim of what looked to be wands and witches hats in a pattern.

Kagome looked at it skeptically before shrugging and walking inside.

What do you expect? It looks warm in there.

Once she had entered she immediately regret it.

It was like something you would see in the movies. Potions and spell books lined the walls. On one of the desks rested a couple of sticks that could be some sort of wands or something. And right smack dab in the middle of the room was a small table accompanied by two red silk chairs and a crystal ball sitting on top.

Yup, definitely like a movie.

Kagome saw a hook adorning the wall and removed her sopping coat to rest on it.

She looked around once more before deciding to take a seat.

She sat there for a couple seconds before noticing a small bell residing on the table.

Next to it was a sign that read:

'Ring the bell and your wish shall be granted'

Kagome sweat dropped and decided to play along.

So she rang the bell.

Suddenly she heard something like a dog barking outside. She turned to look back at it. When she saw it was gone she turned back to the table and jumped.

Sitting there was an old woman with and eye patch. She had long white hair in a ponytail down her back. She looked to be wearing a white haori and red hakama pants.

She was smiling a nice smile and her hands, old and wrinkled, sat under her chin.

"Wh-what? How'd you get there so fast?" Kagome asked trying to catch her breath.

"Never ye mind that, child. My name is Kaede. There is something that ye seek, Kagome?"

Kagome looked at her quizzically and sighed.

"Yeah there is. You see- Wait hold it! How'd you know my name?"

The woman smiled. "It is on your book." She pointed to it.

Kagome blushed in embarrassment.

"Oh- ha ha Right."

"Anyway, there is something that ye desire, correct?" Kaede asked again.

"Oh- Yes! You see there is this…guy who I really have thing for, although I've never even talked to him. Except I just totally blew it because this morning I got so nervous that I threw up on him…" Kagome said covering her face with her hands again.

"Ah the dreaded Curse of Love. Believe it or not I have once in mi lifetime fallen for someone also."

The woman stood up shakily and swept her hand across her shelf of many things. She smiled as she grabbed small heart shaped bottle with what seemed to be some sort of pink liquid inside and a small book the size of her palm.

She dusted off the book as she sat back down in the red chair.

"This will do the trick." Kaede declared.

"What is that stuff?" Kagome asked incredulously.

"A Love Potion." Kaede stated as she peeked through the small red book.

"Love Potion? You have got to be kidding." Kagome snorted.

"Ay Kagome do not question the ways of mi ancestors." She said in a scolding voice.

"Sorry." Kagome slumped in her chair.

"Alright. This is how the potion shall work." Kaede uncorked the bottle a small burst of pink steam streamed out.

"The potion shall make the drinker in love with the one they share thy potion with. All you have to do is let one drop fall into your lover's drink or food and poof! He will love you."

"So what your saying is that all I have to do is drop this in Hojo-kun's drink and my own drink and then he will magically fall in love with me?"

"That is right." Kaede smiled encouragingly.

"That is a load of crap." Kagome stated matter of factly.

"Ye shall not know until ye try." Kaede shrugged.

"Yeah. Whatever." Kagome sighed as she grabbed her coat off the hook.

"Wait!" Kaede got up as quickly as her withered body could.

She thrusted the bottle and book in to the girl's hands.

"Ye may take them with ye. Ye does not have to use them if ye do not want to."

Kagome sighed and stuck them into her jacket pocket.

"Good luck with your love in the making." Kaede said as she waved goodbye to the schoolgirl.

"Yeah Yeah." Kagome snorted as she walked back into the fog.

Kagome looked down into her coat pocket again and forgot to thank the woman.

"Oh Thanks for the- Eh?"

The tent had disappeared.

Kagome looked back to where the tent had once been before shivering.

"Creepy."

Okay I know that was super short! But I needed to get this out of the way before the real fun begins! Next chapter is when Kagome decides to give Hojo the potion! Except it doesn't turn out like she planned.

Thanks for the Reviews! I love them sooooo much!

Love Ya Lots,
