Rating: PG-13
Pair: Cole & Piper
Chapter 7
All important info is in the first 3 chapters.
Over the
next week, Piper tired to avoid Cole as much as possible,
but it
seemed that he was always around, watching her.
"Darn, it
seems like he's spending more time in the restaurant than
in his
office." She muttered to herself.
It wasn't that Piper
didn't enjoy his kisses, she did, too much. It
was just the whole
witch/demon thing. Even though they were on
friendlier terms,
since The Source was vanquished, there were still a
few renegade
demons killing witches.
Cole was in his office, trying to
work, but he wasn't getting very
far. He couldn't get Piper out of
his mind. He wanted to talk to her,
tell her how he felt, hell,
he wanted to do more than talk, but he
promised himself he'd take
it slow.
A half hour later, he pushed the papers away and
decided to take a
shower.
"Leo, do we accept personnel checks?" Piper asked.
"Yeah, but the boss
has to sign the back of the check. Bring along
their ID so he can
verify it's the same person."
"Well, there goes my
plan to avoid Cole." She muttered as she took
the elevator to
Cole's office.
Cole had just stepped out of the shower, when
Piper walked through
the door.
"Oh! I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed, turning red.
Cole smiled as he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist.
"Okay, I'm decent, you can turn around."
"I need you to okay this check."
She said, handing Cole the check and
the piece of ID.
Cole
made sure he touched her hand when he handed her the check and
ID
back.
"Well, I'll just get out of your way so you can
finish dressing." She
nervously said, as she pressed the
closed door button in the
elevator.
Cole smiled as he
closed his office door. "I'm wearing her down. Soon
she won't
turn me away."
