An Emergency

Summary: Piper has a dilemna. Phoebe intervenes.

"Phoebe," She pressed a hand to her forehead "I understand how you feel. Really I do. But if you don't quiet down, my hands are going to strike of their own accord."

Her sister, in mid-sentence of rambling on about their sister Prue's oblivious controlling and frowned. "You okay?"

Slapping the hand that had been resting on her head on the counter, Piper looked away, finding something interesting on the wall. "Yes, I'm perfectly content."

Her sister rolled her eyes. "Come on, I've known you my whole life. When something irritates you, it shows."

"That obvious huh."

"Yep. So go ahead and tell Phoebe what's bothering you, honey?"

She laughed. What was it about her sister's little bits that always got to her?

"Alright, fine. Leo and I...have been on the rocks a bit."

Nodding, Phoebe bit the end of her pen that she'd been using for the forgotten crossword puzzle.

"And it's just been, hard. I guess that's the best way to describe it."

Phoebe reached for her sister's hand. "Well all relationships are never easy. You just have to work through it."

"-he hasn't called me in over a week Phoebe."

"Oh."

"Yes."

Silence. An eyebrow rose on her younger sister's face as an idea seemed to spark with an enthusiastic 'ah ha'. "What you need is an emergency call."

She blinked. "Ah what?"

Snapping her fingers. "Ooh, Leo. Help. I can't do this on my own."

A shimmering light passed in the kitchen just over Phoebe's shoulder. Leo, bewildered by seeing the two sit there so calmly, inclined his head to them. "Well? What is it you need help with?"

Hopping up from her seat, Phoebe grabbed her mug and puzzle and headed for the dinning room. "You and Piper. Talk."

Rolling her eyes, she couldn't help but smile. "Thanks Phoebs."

She called back, "Any time!"

Leo took her place on the stool and frowned. "Is there something I'm missing?"

Piper took a sip of her tea and laughed. "Just Phoebe being Phoebe." She paused. "She wants us to make up."

Phoebe called back, " And make out! Geez, I never thought it be this difficult..."

It was Leo's response that surprised her. "Well, I can make that a whole lot easier." The magical blue orbs transcended around them until finding their way to her room. They made out, until they were nearly breathless. Leo ran a hand down her arm as she smiled.

"Now...about that emergency. Are there going to be more?"
