Charming Stranger

Chapter One

Piper sits peacefully on the blanket reading her book occasionally looking up to check on the boys. Wyatt is being chased by his younger brother Chris; He has become the perfect big brother. Watching over Chris like a hawk never letting him get to close to danger Wyatt has even started to place his protective shield around both of them. Piper leans back and glances around the playground watching all the other children and there parents or nannies enjoying the warm sun drenched afternoon. She is pleased that the boys can now enjoy a normal life, as well she hated to keep them in the house all the time or hiding them at magic school. Alternatively, having Leo or Paige orb them off some place safe. This is so much better for everyone.

Piper's eyes glided over the surrounding area when her attention was snapped back to the black Jaguar parked across the street. It had been there when they arrived and the occupant was still sitting behind the wheel. "Maybe it was just someone picking up there child." Piper told herself. "Yeah, then why have they been watching this area the whole time there attention centered on the boys it seems?" She questioned her self. Piper stood placing her hands on her hips leaning back stretching her back. "Boy's come on we need to get going." She called out to them. Bending over she picked up her blanket and book, keeping her eyes on the boy's and the car. Her nerves were starting up and she was becoming a little jumpy "Wyatt Matthew let's go!" She snapped in that mother tone

"Awwwwww, Com'on mommy Wyatt is going to push me on the swing." Chris wined to his mother as he mopped over to her. "I know baby, but we need to get going Aunt Paige is waiting with lunch remember, maybe we can come back tomorrow, ok peanut?" She asked while lovingly stroking his cheek Chris lowered his big green eye's to the ground and shook his head

. "Ok mommy." He quipped back still sounding disappointed. Until his eye's saw Wyatt running up the hill towards them. Chris's grin went from ear to ear. He admired his big brother and tried to emulate him. "HEY! Wy mom said were coming back 'morrow ." Piper shook her head and snickered at her youngest it was amazing how quickly they can turn things around. "Really Mom are we?" Wyatt asked exactly Piper sighed and looked towards the Jaguar. The driver was now out of the car and leaning on the front bumper. Piper could not tell from this distance if it was male or female all she could make out was the person was dressed in all black, Leather pant, leather duster black Boots, looked like long dark hair sunglasses. In addition, they smoked.

Piper ushered the boys to her truck and opened the back door as she leaned over to snap Chris into his booster seat she noticed the Jaguar person flick there cigarette and hurriedly get into the car and start the engine. Piper fumbled with the seatbelt latch. "Damn it!" "What mom I can do myself come on Let me try ." Chris asked Piper shoved the latch into place and tugged Wyatt's belt to make sure it was tight. Kissing Chris on the head, she said. "Next time baby 'Kay mommy's in a hurry right now."

Piper jumped into the driver's seat and adjusted her mirror so she could see the Jaguar and the traffic; she waited until there was enough traffic coming on the opposite side of the street and just a large enough gap on her side to jump out in to the flow. Knowing she jammed the Jaguar for now she could get a pretty good lead on it and hopefully make it home way before they could pull out.

Piper was pulling into the driveway Just as the Jaguar pulled out of its space and spun around and headed the same direction that Piper had. As she rushed the boy's into the house, she closed the door tightly behind her. "Is that the two sexiest men in my life I hear?" came Phoebe's voice from the kitchen. "NO! Aunt Phoebe it's just and Wy." Chris blurted out as he ran into the kitchen. Phoebe scooped him up and started kissing him all over his neck making him giggle hysterically "Hi Aunt Phoebe, what's for lunch?" Phoebe ruffled Wyatt's hair as he walked by her. "Don't know bud ask Paige I just ran in to grab my lap top I forgot it this morning.

Just then, Paige entered the room behind Wyatt, leaned over, and gave him a raspberry on his neck. "Yuck you smell like fresh air "She giggled so what ya'll want to eat? " UMMMMMMM" Chris says, bringing his little hand up to his chin and rubbing it as if he is really pondering his answer causes them all to break out in hysterical laughter

"What's so funny in here what's going on?" Leo asked as he enters the room. "Daddy!" yelled in unison as both boy's jump up to greet there father. "Damn good to see you made it back for the war since this morning there Leo." Phoebe giggled as she passed him with a pat. "See you guys at dinner love ya , bye." "Bye aunt Phoebe, Love you too." Came the boy's reply.

Phoebe walked into the foyer and noticed Piper peering out the glass pane in the door. Phoebe crept up behind her leaning over her shoulder whispers in her ear. "What we looking at?" "OH, Good god Phoebe just give me a heart attack. Nothing, what are you doing home ?" Jumping back, Phoebe gulps. "Forgot my Laptop gotta go bye. Love ya , see you at dinner." She grabs the door handle, opens the door, and heads out. Piper walks out behind her . "bye honey see you later be careful." "'Kay, Bye." As Phoebe pulls out of the driveway, Piper shakes her head in disbelief at herself, rushing the boys for no reason at all . Paranoia creeps up on her so much now she is just waiting for that next attack to come . Although it has been six months now with no problem, she is the only one who cannot seem to grasp this whole being normal thing. She turns around and head's into the house to have lunch with her family.

Across the street sits the black Jaguar a steady stream of smoke bellowing off the tip of a Marlboro cigarette hanging loosely from the hand out the window It makes its way inside for one more long drag then is tossed away. The dark tinted window goes up, as the Jaguar glides past the house. Pair of onyx eye's cast there glare upon Halliwell Manor.
