AN:Ok well this idea for a fic popped into my head last night why I was watching one my many Charmed videos (yes yes I'm sad but meh!) and well I guess I thought it would be a good idea for a fic with just a couple of chapters in it. As I'm sure you have guessed from the title it is about Leo and his thoughts. But what thoughts you may ask! Well it's just his thoughts after a few episodes in Season six which I think are important. Ok well it may sound like a rubbish summary and I'd say it is but please just read it and review! I'd love you forever! Thanks Molly xXx

Thoughts of an Elder- Chapter 1- Set after 'Love's A Witch'
With every step she took his heart broke more, his eyes filled with more tears and his face fell further. She had just asked him for a divorce. He knew that this time would come eventually but he been denying the inevitable. He never thought his life would come down to this. But then again he never thought he would meet someone like her. He thought himself lucky to have met someone as special as her and to have been able to hold her and kiss her. But then that brought him back to the moment where it all went wrong.
'Where is he? Where is Leo?' Came her broken voice. He heard it and came to her straight away.
'Piper, what are you doing here?' He looked into her blood shot eyes.
'How can you do this?'
He looked around at the surrounding Elders and decided it was best to move away from them 'Uh, excuse us for a minute.'
'You asked me to marry you and I did. You wanted a family and I gave you a son. And now you want me to watch you just walk away?' She said struggling to hold her voice.
'It's not that simple.' He said to her knowing it was the wrong thing to say.
'Then make it simple. Because I'm trying really hard to understand.'
'Piper, if I had a choice in any of this, I would choose you. I always have.' And it was true, he always had chosen her no matter what the case was but now…it seemed different and he didn't like it.
' Then choose me now. Then let's go home.' She held out her hand he struggled not to take it and orb them orb.
'Don't you think I want to?' That statement could not have been truer.
'I don't know. And that's what scares me the most.' She looked to the floor holding back tears that were threatening to fall.
'The Elders were wrong about us. They didn't think our love could survive but it did. Our love blessed us in ways they couldn't even imagine. It gave you the strength that you needed to take over from Prue, it produced a baby with a greater future than any of us, and it made me...'
'An Elder.' She finished his sentence. He took her hands in his and forced her eyes to look to his.
'Our love it transcendent, Piper. It lifted me up so high that this was the only possible result. Being an Elder wasn't my destiny, but yet here I am because of you.'
'I can't just give up. I don't know how.' The tears that were threatening to fall fell with full force and she couldn't stop them.
'You can't fight this. Not this.'
'How am I supposed to do this alone?' She asked.
'You have your sisters.' He said but he wanted it to be him.
'It's not the same. Will I ever see you again?' His heart broke when she asked it. He didn't know if he would ever see her again and it killed him.'
'I don't know. I'll always be watching over you.'
'But you won't be there for Wyatt. You're gonna miss so much.' She said breaking down again. At the mention of his son Leo felt the tears well up in his eyes. He couldn't bare the thought of leaving his baby son, not being able to watch him grow, watch him take his first steps, say his first words.
'I will never leave Wyatt's side. He will always feel my presence. It's not the same as human love, he needs you for that.'
'He's got me. And I hope that's enough. But what if it's not?' He didn't know the answer to that question so he avoided it. He looked to her again and her tears were unstoppable. He wanted to hold her and tell her everything would be ok, that he would be coming home soon.
'As an Elder I have the power to take your pain away.' He knew that removing her pain would be the best thing as she would be able to move on but he also knew that her pain would be transferred to him.
'You can't make me forget you.' She said. Hr prayed she wouldn't forget him. He knew he would never forget her.
'No. Help you find peace.' He said and reached out and held her. He could hear her cries and he closed his eyes and took her pain away. 'I love you' He whispered in her ear, knowing it would be the last time.
He sighed at the memory and wiped a tear that had escaped him. He looked to the door and closed his eyes trying to imagine Piper sitting on the bed smiling and on the phone. He could see the smile so easily as he thought it was the most beautiful smile and it always spread to her brown eyes which could light up a room. He remembered just waking up earlier than her and watching her sleep, sometimes she smiled and he wondered what she was dreaming of. He shook his head and the image left him. He remembered what she had asked him and he held his hands together to stop them from shaking. He took one last look down the hall way and orbed out, his body dissipating into tiny particles.
Ok so you kind of get the drift of what I'm getting at yea? Ok well review and tell me if I should keep going! Molly xXx
