Setting: Missing scene in Freaky Phoebe after Piper and Paige vanquish Phoebe who was in Imara's body.
Phoebe looked around and found herself standing in her bedroom confused. "Phoebe?" she heard a familiar voice call her from the window seat. She turned around and saw him. There he was standing there in front of her.

"Cole," was all she could say, straightening up.

He walked closer to her, "How did you get her?"

"Imara tricked Piper and Paige into vanquishing me," Phoebe told him, still unsure about what was going on.

"Imara switched souls with you?" he asked, shaking his head. "Don't worry, though. Piper and Paige will take care of her and bring you back."

She knew that. She had no doubt about that. She knew she wasn't crossing over because she wasn't supposed to. Piper and Paige were probably working on a way to bring her back. She could explain all that, but she couldn't explain what Cole was doing there.

"Where are we?" she asked, thinking that was as good of starting place as any.

"It's a kind of limbo," Cole told her, wanting to take her in his arms, but knowing it probably wasn't the best of times. Instead he just said, "It's great to talk with you again."

"What are you doing here?" she asked, finally.

Cole shrugged, "I'm stuck. I can't leave."

Phoebe looked at Cole and wondered, "What do you mean, you're stuck?"

"Well," he said, walking closer to her, "I'm bound to you, literally. I can't move on because neither of us can move on from each other." She knew he was right, she could feel it, but she still had no clue what to do about it. That's when Cole added, "That's why I sent Drake-- to at least help you to move on."

"Wait a minute," she interrupted. "You sent Drake?"

Cole nodded again, "I told him where to find that sorcerer. I told him where to find you-- how to get you to trust him."

She looked at him warmly, "You did all that for me?"

Cole softly laughed, "You know there's nothing I wouldn't do for you."

Phoebe took a deep breath and swallowed her pride. Quickly closing the distance between them, she stepped to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly to her. "Oh, Cole! I've missed you so much! I'm so, so sorry," she told him, never wanting to let go. Cole stood there stunned for a moment then wrapped his arms around her, praying it was real, and if it was, hoping it would never end. Phoebe heard her sisters chanting a spell to bring her back to her body. Se felt her herself begin to dissemble and she pulled back just to look into his eyes. She knew she wouldn't be there much longer, so she had to tell him now.

"I love you, Cole. I always will," she told him and then kissed him.

After the short kiss, he looked into her eyes, pouring his heart out to her with the last words she would hear from him, "I will always love you, my darling Phoebe."

And with that, she dematerialized and moved in a swirl of particles up to the attic.
