Disclaimer: Charmed ain't mine. You should know that.
Ok, thanks to all those who reviewed. Wait, I don't think anybody reviewed. Oh well, I'm updating anyway. On with the chapter!!
This is set a couple months after Piper found out. She is 5 months pregnant. Prue and Andy have finally gotten an apartment for Kassidy and them. They just moved out. Phoebe and Jason broke up and she's now single.
You should listen to the songs first.
1. No Promises by Shayne Ward
2. Last Night on Earth by Delta Goodrem
"Leo, stop!" Piper giggled, trying to get Leo to stop tickling her. The phone started ringing.
"Wanna let the answering machine get that?" Leo said. Piper smiled, thought.
"Nope," she said, pushing him off of her and grabbing the phone.
"Hello?" she asked. He heard someone sigh.
"Is Leo there?" Adam said coldly. Piper, confused, since he had been harsh and cold to her ever since he found out she was pregnant, handed over the phone.
"Adam," Piper whispered. Leo nodded.
"Hey Adam," Leo said, still watching Piper closely. Piper stuck her tongue out at him.
"Leo, I got some bad news," he said.
"What is it?" Leo asked, worried.
"All police stations around the world have a new policie."
"Well, what is it?" Leo asked, irratated that he was beating around the bush.
"Well, umm, a couple, were both partners on the SLCPD. They were killed last night because they weren't paying attention. They were too worried about each other getting hurt that they didn't notice a criminal sneak up and stab them to death. Because of their ignorance, the HPD issued that intimate relationships with anyone on any police squad is banned. Man, I'm sorry."
"What?" Leo asked, his world crashing down around him. Piper looked at her husband, who's face had gone ghost white.
"I gotta go," Adam said, hanging up. Piper walked over to the radio. Turned it on.
"This is Shayne Ward with No Promises."
Hey baby, when we are together, doing things that we love.
Every time you're near I feel like I'm in heaven, feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl.
I just need you to know girl.
Man, this sucks, Leo thought. Life without Piper. It's impossible to think about. She's everything to me. I could never let go. Life without her would be like life without air.
I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms
"Leo, what's wrong?" Piper asked, sitting back right next to him. Her stomach was slowing her down these days.
Here tonight
Hey baby, when we are together, doing things that we love.
"Piper, we need to talk. Adam says that the HPD has issued a new policie."
Everytime you're near I feel like I'm in heaven, feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl.
"Well, what's the new rule?"
I just need you you to know girl.
"Relationships in a squad is forbidden."
I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms
"What?" Piper yelled, Heidi, who had finally come to visit, scurried away from the sudden noise.
I don't want to run away, I want to stay forever, thru Time and Time..
No promises
"You're joking right?" Piper asked, tears starting to spill. Leo shook his head. Piper could tell he wasn't. Leo tryed to hug her, but she pulled away.
I don't wanna run away, I don't wanna be alone
No Promises
"This-This isn't supposed to happen like this. We-we're supposed to have a baby together, and take care of her and and and-" Piper tryed.
Baby now I need to hold you tight
Now and forever my love
"We're gonna get through this. Together," Leo muttered, taking her in his arms. Piper, accepting him, leaned into him, or tryed to.
No promises
I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
"I c-c-can't let go. Not like this," Piper sobbed, squeezing his jacket.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms
I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
"What are we gonna do?" Piper asked, calming down a bit. Leo shook his head.
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms
Here tonight.
The phone rang again.
"I'll get it," Leo said softly. He got up. "Hello?"
"Leo a couple of the guys and me are going down to the park to play some football for fun. Wanna come?" Adam asked.
"Sorry, I can't. Piper needs me right now," Leo said, walking into another room.
"It's always Piper isn't it?" Adam said bitterly.
"What do you mean?" Leo asked, totally confused.
"What's gonna happen after that baby's born, huh? Our friendship is already going down the toilet as it is, but it's gonna be destroyed if they keep you from hanging out with your friends."
"Well, your the one who just dropped the news that me and Piper can't be together anymore! What am I supposed to say. 'Sorry, honey. Football's more important than us'?" Leo yelled.
"How about, 'I need some time to hang out with my friends'?" Adam yelled back.
"No wonder you're so bitter. I can't leave her right now. She needs me," Leo said, and if looks could kill, and if he was looking at Adam, Adam would be dust. Leo hung up and walked back into the bedroom.
"That was My Happy Ending by Avril Lavigne. Give it up for Delta Goodrem with Last Night on Earth."
It's the last night on earth before the great divide
My hands are shaking time was never on our side
And there's no such thing as a beautiful goodbye
As an ordinary day I prayed for you a thousand times
"Hey honey," Leo said, lying down next to her.
It's never enough
No matter how many times I tried to tell to tell you this is love
"I love you," Piper whispered. Leo nodded and whispered it back.
If tomorrow never comes I want you to know right now that I
I'm gonna love you until the day I die
If tomorrow falls asleep can you hold me first
Flashback
"Leo!!!" a 17 year old Piper screamed, tears streaming down her cheeks. Leo burst out of the house, bare feet, pajamas and messed up hair.
I'm gonna love you like it's the last night on earth
Like it's the last night on earth
"We're gonna get through this. Together," Leo mumbled. Piper breathed in his scent and trusted him.
"I love you," Piper muttered.
"I love you too."
That was the first time they had said 'I love you.' Piper looked over at a picture of Piper and Leo at the fair. Leo was feeding Piper cotton candy.
Let's knock down the walls of immortality
Your fingers on my skin only you can hear my fear
Leo touched her arm and she shivered slightly from the sudden touch. Heidi cautiously walked in and jumped up onto the bed. She curled up at their feet. For, she may not know it, it could be the last time.
Only you can help me heal
I see forever with you here
"Leo, I thought you said forever."
"I did. And I meant it. I still mean it," Leo said, trying to help her. Heal her. Make sure she wasn't afraid.
It's never enough no matter how many miles stand between us this is love
"But, our love isn't enough right now. We need a miracle," Piper said.
"If a miracle's what we need then we'll get it."
If tomorrow never comes I want you to know right now that I
I'm gonna love you until the day I die
"I don't want tomorrow to come," Piper sniffled.
"We'll make it through Piper. We always have," Leo challenged Piper's self doubt.
"I hope."
If tomorrow falls asleep can you hold me first
I'm gonna love you like it's the last night on earth
Piper slowly closed her eyes, letting sleep take away her worries. Leo just lay there, watching making sure it wasn't a dream and if he let go she'd disappear.
It's never enough
No it's never enough
(it's never enough)
Oohh
Flashback
"What if it's not enough?" a 21 year old Piper asked.
"It will be. Nothing can stop us from being together. Not my parents, not anybody," Leo countered.
"We're gonna get through this. Together," Leo said.
The afterglow
The horizon line
"How can you be so sure?"
"'If darkness falls, will you still love me?"
"Always."
The shadows fall
Will you still be mine
"That's how I know."
Will you still be mine
Will you still be mine I ask
Leo slipped Piper under the covers. He got himself in and just lay there, with his eyes closed, listening to the music still playing in the background.
If tomorrow never comes I want you to know right now that I
I'm gonna love you until the day I die
"I love you Piper. Always," Leo said. And then he fell into a nightmare-filled sleep.
And if tomorrow falls asleep can you hold me first
I'm gonna love you like it's the last night on earth
