Summary/Set: truth is, we all want a nice and simple happy ending. When else than after the episode "Happily Ever After."
Piper looked up from the baby clothes catalogue and glanced up at the clock. Phoebe will be late from work. She knew how quaint her sister was when it came to her job. Paige could always come and go about hers, but Phoebe seemed to have dedicated half of her life to that paper, religiously honouring dead lines and took great pride in what she had achieved in less than six month. The day before was an upheaval for them, maybe more than usual, Phoebe could have slept in. Her sister would thank her if she woke her up now. She knocked slightly on her door, then gently pushed it in. Locked doors were not customary in a house where the inhabitants were close and intimate with each other, not to mention the danger that lurked around them at all times and required immediate access to all areas. The curtains were pulled, but she could still make out most things in the room.
Phoebe was on her side with her legs bent, on the bed. Cole was right behind her, following the contours of her naked body with his. He was stroking her hair and kissing her shoulders.
Piper turned around, surprised at the sight, and attempted to shut the door, but Phoebe noticed her, "uh…Piper…" she pulled the cover over herself and Cole followed her example, "something wrong?"
"No," Piper tried to look away as much it was possible while still talking to her sister, "it's just that it's almost nine o'clock. I though you wanted to…well, however…"
"I know," Phoebe looked back at her lover, "Cole will shimmer me, thanks…Piper!" She called as her older sister made another attempt at leaving. She stood up to reach her sister just outside the door, trailing the covers after herself and leaving Cole nothing to cover himself with, "you ok with this?" She whispered to her sister.
"Wasn't I the one that left you two alone to work it all out last night? Paige told me the intensity of her spell when she tried to prove to Cole you still loved him, but she didn't need to tell me. We all know that you wouldn't be happy without him."
"Thanks, Piper," Phoebe hugged her sister, half loosing the covers that she wrapped around herself, "oh, I better take these back," she remembered a naked Cole.
The End.
