Sorry everyone college classes are a bitch, I am struggling student so bare with me. Now on with the story.

Disclaimer: Yah yah I don't own anything except my car and 50bucks in my wallet.

Zelgadis poured the liquid into Lina's goblet of wine and smiled cruelly. He then turned around with a swish of his cape and walked back to the table. He then sat down everyone's drinks. He made sure he handed Lina's to her with a charming smile.

Lina arched an eyebrow at the smile. She had never seen Zel smile like that, hell it was hard to get Zel to smile and here he was giving her a charming smile. She felt a bit worried but shook her head. He was probly happy that they were out of the forest and in someplace he could take a hot bath. She knew how much he loved hot baths. Suddenly the image of Zel is a bath came into her mind. His hot and sweat chest rising out of the water. His checks slightly blushed from the heat. Under the water his hard and. Lina shook her head she shouldn't be thinking about Zel like that he was just a friend. Plus he probly like Ameila. With that she sighed. Well maybe the wine would make her feel better. Lina then picked up her goblet and put a smile on her face. "To friends."

Gourry and Ameila looked up and smiled. "To friends." They said together.

"To tonight." Zel said softly as he lifted up his cup of coffee. The four clanged together their drinks and smiled.

"To tonight Mr. Zelgadis how odd." Said a voice coming from behind Zelgadis. Zelgadis growled as Xellos appeared behind him. "How is everyone tonight?"

"Good, we just got out of this scary forest Mr. Xellos." Ameila said perkily. She always seemed so happy it make Xellos feel a bit sick.

"Ohh a scary forest, I'm sure the scariest thing in there was either Zelgadis or Lina." Xellos said floating over to Lina.

"Shut up you little fruitcake." Lina said giving him the evil eye. Which Xellos then ignored and sat down in mid air right next to Lina.

"Aww so cruel to me after I haven't seen you to in months." Xellos said faking puppy dog eyes.

Zelgadis was glaring at Xellos, why did he have to show up now of all times. The potion would kick in, in about an hour. He needed to get Lina alone by then or the whole thing would be ruined.

"Ohhh yes it has been a month Xellos, time just flies by when you're not around." Lina said smugly taking another sip from her goblet of wine. This was incredible wine is almost had a sweet flavor to it. Lina continued to drink as it as Ameila ranted to Xellos about their adventures. Lina looked over at Xellos. She didn't think he just came here to say hello he always has an alterative motive.

Xellos smiled Ameila, he knew that Zelgadis' demon side had taken over him, how could he not. He had gone from always warring aura to one looking similar to a monster. What did the little chimera have in hand for this night?

Yes yes what does Zel have in plan for this night, will the potion do what he hoped and get the little sorceress or will the monster Xellos claim her.

RnR I will post again on Wednesday or tonight. Depends on how many reviews I get

Luv you all.
