Chapter 6
Oh My god
I hung up the phone, still thinking about what Phoebe Had said, "I might just take you up on that offer", it didn't sound like she was joking either, but I decided I was just being paranoid. Prue had gone up stairs to take a shower and head to bed so I headed to the kitchen. I was stopped half way by a knock at the door, an occurrence which was turning out to be regular tonight. I walked over and opened the door to find Leo standing there. A wave of happiness caught me by surprise as it rushed through my body, maybe Prue was right, maybe I really do like Leo, no wait, I do like Leo.
"Hi", he said and I smiled back at him, I hoped he didn't notice the blushing.
"Hi Leo, how are you, oops I mean, how is the club doing tonight?" I replied recovering from the nerves.
"Hey, everything is fine I just came here too, well, ask you something about, about the band for tomorrow night, err, who's playing?"
"The River Rage, but you didn't need to come all the way down here to ask me that, you could have just checked the diary," I said and he stepped a little closer.
"Oh, really, yeah, the diary, I'll remember that next time, I'm really sorry to bother you like this, I just…"and his voice trailed off as he grabbed hold of my arms in a gentle manor, and I realised how close we actually were. He leaned a little close, and although the small space between us didn't bother me. I could feel his breath on my face and then I could feel him put his arms around my head and pulled me in to kiss him, I realised it felt right. It only lasted a second though before he pulled away and immediately started apologising.
"Oh my god Piper, I am so sorry, I didn't mean for that to happen, it will never happened again, I am so sorry," he rambled and I smiled. I ignored the rambling and did something that even surprised me; I grabbed him passionately and kissed him back. This must have caught him off guard too because it took a while to respond, but when he finally we kissed like I had never kissed anyone before, I felt like I had known him forever. I felt as if we had been together forever, and my body was filled with passion and as we kissed the doorbell went unnoticed. That was until it rand a 4th and 5th time, and I finally broke off this kiss, regretfully but I knew it had to be done.
He smiled at me as I went to open the door and as I opened it, I smiled back at him and didn't see who was at the door, it was Phoebe. I turned around and saw her, at first I was in shock. I stepped aside to let her in, not wanting to ask anything while Leo was there.
"Hey, err…Leo, this is my sister Phoebe, and I really need to talk to her, so wait for me outside a minute?" I asked him knowing I would have to say goodbye to him cause I had the feeling I would be talking to Phoebe for a long time, she wouldn't come back here for no reason. I watched Leo walk outside the door, still smiling, and I turned back to Phoebe to take a good look at her. She looked run down, tired, and I knew she had been through a lot, although I didn't know what it was she had gone through.
"Hey sweetie, I just have to say bye to, Leo, my employee from the club, I'll be right back ok?" I said and she gave me a weak smile, although I think she knew somehow that something had happened before she arrived, but I knew that wasn't her main concern.
"Sure, I'll wait in the living room Piper," she replied and walked out of the room. I walked out the front door and turned to Leo.
"Hey, I know we need to talk about what happened tonight and everything but I really need to see if my sister is ok, so can I call you tomorrow?"
"Um…sure, just so I know, you don't regret what just happened, do you?"
"Oh, Leo, not at all, I have never felt that way when kissing someone before, and I know there's a lot to talk about but no, no regrets"
"Ok well, I'll talk to you tomorrow," he said and kissed me again, softer this time, not that it was rough before but, this time it was really gentle. He walked down to his car and drove away. I felt my lips with the tips of my fingers and they were still buzzing, but I gave myself a little reality check and walked back in to where Phoebe was sitting.
"Hey sweetie, so how are you?" I asked her.
"Hey yeah I'm good, ok well obviously I'm not good but I'm not really in the mood to talk tonight, maybe tomorrow, but for now I want to know what's been going on here, how is life in the Mannor?"
"Well, sisterly at the moment, sweetie I don't know if you know yet but Prue is back in town, back in the Manor, in fact she is upstairs at the moment."
"Oh my god Piper, I should leave, she wouldn't want me to be here I'll go I will."
"Sweetie, I know you guys have had issues in the past but we are sister."
"I know but I can't face her, not after what happened Piper, I just can't."
"Well, she shouldn't be out tonight so if you want to go upstairs and get some sleep then go ahead but the longer you wait the harder it's going to be. Sweetie I'm going to go upstairs and get some stuff organised before I go to bed, but come up and say goodnight before you go to bed, and if you want to talk, I'm here. "
"Ok, I'll think about it, and I'll see you soon." Phoebe said and I knew if she didn't talk to her I was going to be stuck with the job of telling Prue before Phoebe woke up.
