"How much is for this?" The lady asked Natasha and Jordan. Jordan took the toy, "well this was very valuable to me as a kid and it was like a good luck charm..so I would say 20 bucks!" The woman nodded. "I will pay you 500 instead." She said and smiled brightly.

Jordan and Natasha looked at each other and was surprised. "But why so much? It's just a toy.." the lady smiled happily and held Jordan'a hand. "Well it was worth very valuable to you as a kid..it's not just a toy if it was very important to you now was it? Besides you need the money right? Other wise you wouldn't be having a yard sale for nothing."

Jordan nodded. "Yea..but we can't possibly take 500 dollars that is a lot of money..don't you need it? We only needed 50 dollars more.." the old lady gave him the money anyway. "No matter now..thank you for this valuable toy..I will cherish it forever with all my heart..I will be on my way you two kids stay safe out here and don't forget to wear your masks." The lady waved.

Out of nowhere she had just disappeared. Natasha and Jordan hugged each other. "Come on we have enough..maybe we will split the rest of the money how about that?" Natasha nodded. "Sounds good let's go."

They had packed most of the stuff and put it in the garage they both walked to the place. "So..this is finally it huh?" Jordan asked. "Yes..finally! I didn't know magic was even real until this happened." Natasha looked at him. "Say when this is over..will we not talk to each other anymore? Will things go back to the way they use to be?"

"Well that depends do you want it to go back to the way things use to be?" Natasha nodded no. "Of course not..I still obviously wanna be friends and talk to you.." she responded quickly. He blushed a bit and looked away. "Well..if that's what you want then..sure.." he didn't really know what to say.

"Do you like me?" Natasha asked. "Wait what—" she slowly put her hands in his while walking. "I don't need to say it again.." she said blushing too. "W-we just met but..I've taken interest in you..since your freshmen year.." her heart pounded so loudly she'd hope he didn't hear. "Really how come I've never seen you?" He laughed. "I've been here all along but you've never noticed me only I've ever noticed you."

"After this let me take you out..properly." He said. "Take me out?" She asked surprised. "Yes if it's not too soon or anything that is." She nodded. "Fine you can take me out when it all turns back to normal.." she said.

They had both finally reached the place. "LILAC MAGICAL STORE" Was the name. It was a bit childish really..the name made it sound like it was fake but..the place said they had guaranteed answers to questions about things like spells and magical books.

Just things that were irregular..and not something you would see happen in everyday life..Jordan and Natasha were both even lucky to be associated with this magic.

The lady smiled. "Welcome~" she said in a soft voice. She was wearing and all white dress with many rings and jewelry's on she was all blinged out and wore bright red lipstick and really bright makeup. "What are you two here
For? And do you have my money?" She asked.

"Woah lady calm down we have your money." She laughs in a very calm way. "Yes darling I am very calm just wanted to make sure you guys came prepared..sit down right here." She tapped the the chairs that were situated around the circle table.

On the table were a bunch of crystals and needs for different things and oils etc even tarot cards. "What are your questions?" Natasha paid the money and looked a bit nervous. "So this happened to me and him.." she said pointing to Jordan. "Well obviously your going to have to state your names." The lady said. "Well I'm Natasha and he's Jordan." She nodded writing something down with her feather pen..it was quite a fancy pen. "Date of birth.."

Natasha told her. "June 17 and January 28." She wrote those little information down. "So what happened to the both of you what answers do you need?" Lilac  asked. "Well..we sort of switched bodies..I know it might be hard to believe but..one day we just woke up in each other's bodies and we don't know how or why..and we want to know everything and also how to switch back."

Lilac smirked. "So you've been cursed." They both look at each other with a small panic. "Wait what do you mean cursed?!" Natasha yelled. "Keep your voices down..obviously I don't mean in a bad way usually curse is a bad thing..but someone has put magic on you two for some reason..now they obviously don't have bad intentions because I am not sensing any evil intentions..I only see light and positivity here..I see someone trying to bring you two closer..your suppose to learn things about each other..learn to love and understand each other...in order to switch back..you must fully understand each other's life and who you both are truly deep within the heart."

They both looked at each other. "But why would someone do that to us? Why would someone who doesn't even know us want to bring us closer..or want us to understand each other it just doesn't make sense." Jordan asked. "Yeah are you telling us the truth? Your not a scam right?you didn't take our money and lie to us?" Lilac  nodded no. "No I am 100% real..however I've said everything I could you may both leave now..please..I have another customer right now."

They both left..and sighed. "So..I guess we're suppose to learn anything and everything about each other and try to understand each other's minds and hearts completely? But..how long would that even take?" She held his hand and walked with him as the sun sets. "Well..we just have to roll with the punches naturally..and act the way we'd normally do without worrying about anything and maybe we will just naturally learn about each other and understand each other fully."
