This choice: Sonja/Jason Drinks a certain Love Potion to Prepare of the "Date" • Go Back...Chapter #5Sonja/Jason Drinks a certain Love Potion to Pre... by: Nerdie   Cassie's hand was shaking as she stood on the front steps of Robin's house. Okay, so she had a date. She prepped her hair, put on a nice long dress, and made sure she was drop dead gorgeous. This was fine. Everything would be great.
Yet, as the elixir in her hand demonstrated, the paranoia was still real. A love potion would just... make things easier. Right? Definitely. No more complications added by doing this, right?
"Oh hey Cassie."
She blinked in surprise. She hadn't even realized the door had opened, much less revealing Jason of all people.
"Why are-"
"Helping my cousin get ready for her date. Hey, can I have that soda?"
Before Cassie could even object, the blonde had grabbed the can of love potion and was heading up the stairs.
"Hey, wait just a min-"
"Oh! Hi Cassie! Wow, you look great!"
There stood Robin, smiling nervously in his t-shirt. "I, uh, feel a little underdressed."
Cassie allowed a small grin to take over her features. Aw hell. Why was she so worried? He liked her fine. And there was no need to worry about the potion. Without a strand of hair as the final ingredient, Jason might as well be drinking fruit brunch.

"Are you kidding me?"
Jason, now transformed into the stunning redhead Sonja, glared at her co-conspirator. Annie shrugged defensively, failing to hide her smug grin.
"What? You told me you were going on a date."
Sonja stomped over to the table, decked out in a light blue dress and slammed down the drink. "I wanted something simple. Sloppy even. I want to scare the guy off, not bring in more months of stupid phone calls."
She started rummaging through her closet, looking for something that showed off much less than this abomination.
"It's not like you hate wearing dresses."
"Not the point Annie." She tossed a shirt over her shoulder.
The world works in mysterious ways. Perhaps it was just a coincidence that the same shirt Sonja had thrown was the shirt she had worn months back. To make a long story short, she had fallen from a portal onto her current date, Larry. Perhaps it was a coincidence that a single strand of hair had fallen from Larry's head onto the shirt. Perhaps it was coincidence that Jason's mother missed the shirt when gathering laundry. And perhaps it was coincidence that the shirt would be thrown over Sonja's soda can and that strand of Larry hair would fall into the elixir.
Whether coincidence, fate, or something else, the potion glowed briefly as the hair vanished into the drink.
"Look, you and Robin are in a wager or something right? This could help prove that you have total control over the situation."
Sonja stopped her search with a sigh. Nothing here would work. She casually reached for the drink and took a sip.
A subtle change in mindset.
"Yeah, you're right Anne. I can handle Larry no sweat." She flipped her hair back casually.
Anne grinned. "Then get out there and show him your stuff, hot stuff."
Sonja snorted before casually grabbing her magicked up purse and heading downstairs.
This night was going to go great.  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
