Chapter 6 – In the Morning.

Cole Turner let his eyes wander over the outline of Paige's sleeping body for the 5th time that hour.

He couldn't get enough of her endless porcelain white skin and her dark glossy hair which spread out over the pillow like melted chocolate. He let a small sigh escape his lips and moved a strand of hair out of her face. ''Paige, why are you so great?'' he mumbled quietly. Last night.. Last night had been amazing, even he thought so. And he thought Phoebe was good in bed, her younger sister was better. They way she had smiled at him misschievously and they way her eyes had sparkled when he wrapped his arms around her.
He smiled slightly to himself as he remembered it all.

Paige rested her head on his chest gently, still joined intimately and her breathing out of sync. ''Cole..'' she smiled and giggled slightly when she felt him run his rough hand up her back. A feeling she had found out, that she loved. ''You were amazing.'' He whispered, his voice deep and low.

It was true. She had been amazing. She was so different than Phoebe. Energetic and not so easy to wear out. Not after only one round anyway, especially after 2 cups of caffeine. And to top it all, she was a phenomonal kisser. His eyes caught a small movement next to him. Paige shifted onto her side and parted her lips slighty. She pushed her legs out straight and let a low moan. Cole smiled and stroked her arm, immediately pulling his hand back when she flinched slightly. He bit bit his lips and cursed himself inwardly for having such rough hands. Now she'd wake up.

Like he had predicted, she moved some more and started to wake, sighing deeply. Cole hoped she wouldn't freak out at the sight of her surroundings, that she wouldn't feel guilty and confused like he did. Paige's eyelids fluttered open slowly and she blinked several times against the bright light shining into her room. Eventually she looked into Cole's eyes, which lit up when a smile spread across his face.
''Morning.'' He said, moving slightly. Paige looked confused for a moment and furrowed her brow slightly. Cole already started to worry, but then Paige smiled widely remembering everything that had happened the night before. ''Hi.'' She rubbed her eyes lightly, causing the mess of smudged mascara and eyeliner to become even messier.

Cole pulled the covers over her shoulder gently and placed a soft kiss upon her forehead. ''Sleep well?'' he asked. Paige let out a slight sigh and nodded. She already started feeling guilty about what had happened, even though it had been so great. Her body was still tingling where he had kissed stroked or touched her and that meant everywhere. Everything. She felt a pink blush creeping on her cheeks as she recalled last night.

''Cole..Sweetie.'' she shuddered out his name as the moved in unison. Her painted fingernails digging into his back, leaving red marks behind. He didn't seem to notice. They had a more important thing to focus on. She wrapped her legs around his waist and drew in a deep breath. It had been ages since someone had made her feel this love and wanted. She didn't want it to end.

Cole smiled and brushed her cheek gently with his finger. They had to face reality. Last night had been great, but it had been a one-time thing. They both knew it, even though they didn't want to admit it. Paige looked at Cole and moved her head slightly. ''You should probably go Cole. Phoebe will be looking for you soon and she better not find out what we did. I don't need her powers to predict that she will kick me out of the Manor that she's going to be very angry. She's scary when she's angry.'' Cole looked at her and managed to give her a small smile. ''I know, we're just going to call this a one night stand aren't we?'' He pushed the covers away and sat up, stretching slightly. Paige watched him. ''I guess.'' She sat up as well and used the sheets to protect her modesty, she never felt as comfortable naked in front of a guy as she did at nights.

Probably because morning brings back reality. And the light is mean, it shows your flaws. Cole glanced at her and got to his feet, naked. Paige looked at him, all of him, and swallowed hard.

I guess that flaws rule doesn't go for him. She thought to herself, feeling her cheeks flush because of her own thoughts.

Cole picked his boxers up and pulled them on. ''Don't even think it, I'll change them when I get home.'' He replied to Paige's unspoken words. She smiled slightly and pulled his shirt out from under the pillow. ''Never thought I'd end up with you here, you know.'' She said, handing it to him. Cole took it and put it on. ''I know. It felt good, though. Not that I think it should happen again.'' He buttoned his shirt up and sat back down on bed, pulling his trousers on.

''Hmm.'' Paige grabbed an elastic from her nightstand and pulled her hair into a messy ponytail. Cole got back to his feet buckling his belt. ''Well. Um. I guess I'll see you around. Thanks for last night Paige, it was great.'' He leaned over and placed a light kiss on the side of her head, keeping his face close to hers longer than necessary. Paige looked at him and smiled, ''It was.'' She bit her bottom lip gently and she watched as Cole smoothed down his shirt and then shimmered out. When he completely disappeared she exhaled deeply, ''That's it?'' She closed her eyes and laid back down on bed. Great.

Cole shimmered into his apartment pulling at his shirt. It smelled like Paige, the Ralph Lauren fragrance she was always wearing. He smiled slightly to himself and unbuttoned his shirt, letting it slide off his shoulders. He put it down on the bed and made his way over to the closet when a movement in the corner of the bedroom caught his attention.
The Seer stepped into the light making Cole jump slightly. ''Seer. What are you doing here?'' He walked over to her and turned the lights on with a small wave of his hand. The Seer walked upto him. ''I am making sure that you're fulfilling your duties as the new Source, Cole. Where is Phoebe? Did you tell her you slept with her baby-sister?'' She gave Cole a hard look and he bit his lip gently, stucking his hands into his pockets. ''No. And I'm not planning on telling her. She doesn't need to know.'' He replied in a threatening voice, while staring down at her.
The Seer looked up at him, obviously feeling slightly intimidated by his imposing and significantly large figure. She considered argueing, but then decided that it was better if she didn't. She had seen him vanquishing demons before and it didn't look pretty. ''I hope you know what you're doing my liege. You need to get Phoebe pregnant, not Paige.'' She reminded him gently, before disappearing.

Ding.


The sound of the elevator rang throughout the apartment and Cole spun on his heels, walking into the livingroom. Phoebe walked out of the elevator smiling happily and wearing a short dress which was probably way too cold for his time of the year. ''Hi baby!'' she said, putting her purse down. Cole drew in a deep breath and put on his fake smile. ''Hi.''

Paige made her way downstairs wearing a bright pink tank top and some shorts. She walked into the kitchen stretching and yawning slightly and she stopped in her tracks when she saw someone sitting at the kitchentable. She raised an eyebrow, '"Christon? Baby what are you doing here?''
Christon looked up. His eyes stood sad and he looked very tired. ''Paige. Piper said I could wait here until you woke up.'' Paige let her teeth bite down on her lower lip gently and walked over at him. Did he know about last night? Did he know what happened? God, if she had known that she would feel this guilty. ''Sweety, what's wrong? You look worried.'' She gently placed her hand upon his shoulder and felt him flinch underneath her touch.

''Paige. Last night. I hit someone with the car and she's in the hospital. She's not going to make it.'' Paige looked at her boyfriend feeling her eyes widen and her jaw drop slightly. Okay. So he did not know about last night.
''Honey.. I – Does her family know yet?'' She sat down next to him and put a comforting hand on his knee. Christon shook his head in reply, his eyes focusing upon the kitchenfloor. ''She doesn't have any. She's a homeless. Paige I feel so guilty. What am I supposed to do?'' Paige looked at him and enveloped him in a tight hug. ''I don't know baby. To apologise? I can come with you to the hospital if you want me to.'' She rested her head upon his shoulder and rubbed his back gently. ''I don't know Paige.'' He played with the back of her pink top gently. ''I'll come with you. I'm sure seeing her and apologising will make you feel better. Trust me.'' It kind of seemed like the wrong thing to say, escpecially after last night. After she had cheated on him, but he didn't know that.

He trusted her.

She swallowed hard to fight her tears back. She felt Christon move his warm hands under her top and he placed a soft kiss on her cheek.
''What would I do without you Paige?''
