Anyway, I hope you enjoy...

Wedding Nightmares

A few days had passed since Elizabeth had been admitted into the hospital, and she had now been moved to the children's ward again, since they had caught the meningitis, and Chris had been to see her everyday, still feeling guilty over it, especially when he found out that it could have possibly had something to do with the car crash that she was in, which Chris had caused.

The Perry still had not said anything to Wyatt about his plans of going up to Buffalo to stay with Speedy for a while, if he was honest, he was slightly worried how Wyatt would take it. After all, Wyatt would be going into his senior year of college in a week, and would probably be relying on Chris to look after Elizabeth between pre-school and him getting home like they had done for the past three years.

Chris made his way through the hospital, straight to the children's ward, where he could see Wyatt sitting next to their daughter's bedside, Elizabeth fast asleep.

"Hey, how long as she been out?"

The Halliwell turned around and smiled at Chris softly, who he noticed was carrying a cuddly toy monkey.

"She's just fallen asleep actually," he whispered, "Took me a while to convince her to sleep, she was waiting for you to come. You ok?"

"Yeah," Chris nodded and sat on a chair by the bed, putting the mokey on the bed and looked right at Wyatt, "Erm…I need to talk to you."

"What about?" Wyatt wondered whether Chris had come to his senses to come back home, and was asking him if it was ok.

"Erm…I'm…" Chris sighed, thinking of the words to really say to Wyatt. This was going to be hard, "I was thinking that I need to get away from here, just for a while, not forever, I don't think…"

"What?" Wyatt did not understanding where this was going.

"I phoned Speedy, I'm flying to Buffalo," Chris ran his hand through his chocolate locks, waiting for Wyatt to shout, "I'm gonna stay up there for a while. I don't know how long yet, but with you so close to me I'm not sorting my head out." He looked into his ex-lover's ocean blue eyes, but never heard him raise his voice, Wyatt just stared at him slightly hurt, well slightly was an understatement, he was extremely hurt.

"What about Lizzie?" Wyatt asked him, "You're just going to run away from us and leave her wondering what she's done wrong?"

"Wyatt…"

"No, Chris," Wyatt sighed, "You're only thinking about yourself. Lizzie thinks that she'll be able to see you whenever, but you're going to be on the other side of the country! Or what, are you planning on taking her with you? Because I'll tell you now…"

"I'm not taking Lizzie with me," Chris shook his head, "Look, I won't be gone forever, ok. I can't stay here when you're around. Even broken up we're arguing, but I thought it best to tell you before I get on a plane and then ring you."

Wyatt leaned back, shaking his head in disgust, and folded his arms defensively.

"Fine, go and sort your head out," Wyatt decided against shouting, but there was some force behind his voice, Chris knew he was pissed off, "You go and leave your daughter behind, leave her for me to explain why you've ran away from her."

"I'm not running away from her, Wyatt," Chris tried to explain, "If I really were then I wouldn't have been with her while you were making sure your slut of an ex-girlfriend was ok after her miscarriage. I'd have never made sure she was ok, after I walked out the other night. I wouldn't have felt so guilty for leaving her screaming…"

"So why are you running off to Buffalo?"

Their eyes met, and for the first time the two boys held the gaze, until Chris broke it with a tear running down his cheek.

"Because I'm still in love with you," Chris' voice was quiet, as if he did not want Wyatt to hear him, "And if I stay here, I'm scared that I'll come running back without really thinking and we'll go back to what we had, which was just constant arguments. I mean, we're still arguing now and we're not even together anymore."

Chris looked towards Wyatt, who he could see was taken aback by his words. The Perry decided to say nothing more, in fear of his voice breaking, it was hurting him finally telling Wyatt the truth, finally letting him know everything he still felt.

"Chris, I still love you," Wyatt finally said, "And I can change. I'll stop bringing everything up from the past. Come back and from now on we start afresh."

"Wyatt, I can't," Chris shook his head, "We still argue now, and I don't want us to argue while Lizzie's caught in the middle. If I go for a while then maybe it'll help."

"Fine…" Wyatt sighed, his eyes narrowing.

"Wy…"

"No, Chris," Wyatt shrugged, pretending that what Chris had just said to him had no affect on him what-so-ever, even though he had just confessed to Chris that he still loved him too, "You go, go to Speedy and lets hope he can sort that head of yours out. But don't bother coming back to me, because once you walk out your out for good."

Chris looked at the Halliwell, and realised he was just trying to protect his heart.

"Fine," he shrugged, deciding not to argue with him, "My flight leaves on Wednesday at 11am, just to let you know, I'll phone to find out how Lizzie is, is that ok?" The blonde just looked at him, not answering his question, so Chris just stood up kissed Elizabeth on her forehead.

"Let her know I came by, please?" Chris asked him, "At least so she doesn't think I've forgotten about her." Still seeing no reaction from his ex-lover, Chris shook his head and left the room, but he only went to the wall, where he leaned on it, closing his eyes and letting a tear fall down them.

In the room, Wyatt's eyes had followed where the brunette had walked, fighting with himself to call him back. He never wanted to sound heartless, but he felt like someone had taken his heart and crushed it and did not want to give Chris that chance again. He looked back at his daughter and leaned forward, putting his head in his hands, finally breaking down at the fact Chris was actually walking out of his life.

"I told him to go," Wyatt sighed to his mother, "I told him to go and never come back." He had decided to go to the Manor, since the house would be to quiet all alone, plus he needed her advice on what to do. He had never felt this way, and he did not have any idea of what to do.

"He won't have taken it serious," Piper brushed Wyatt's golden locks back off his forehead, "He'll know you were upset…"

"You didn't see him when he walked out," the 21-year-old explained, "I saw the hurt in his eyes. He has every right to walk out on me, I have made it hell for him, I admit it now, and here I'm the one making him feel guilty for wanting to get away while he thinks about it. I'm gonna lose him for good now, mom."

"No sweetie, you're not," Piper spoke softly, "Because you can ring him and tell him that you didn't mean it. That you're sorry and when he's made up his mind then the door is open either way."

The two Halliwell's gazes met, and Piper wiped a stray tear that was falling down her eldest son's cheek, she could not say anything more. Wyatt had admitted that he was mainly at fault for the break-up, what could she say? No he was not? She did not know what it had been like for them, she had heard one argument, the one just before the car crash, but there had been others and she did not know how bad they were nor who started them.

"Mom, what do I do?" Wyatt asked, "I can't lose him."

"When does his flight go?"

"Wednesday," Wyatt sighed, it was two days away, he would have two days to find a way to get him back, "11am."

"Right, well, we'll think of a way," Piper spoke softly, "But you do need to work hard not to start another argument, ok?"

"I know," Wyatt sighed, "I love you mom."

"I love you two, sweetie."

"So, you're leaving tomorrow morning?" Naff looked at his friend, as he packed some of his things.

"Yeah," Chris sighed, he was so tired right now. He had hardly slept last night, Wyatt's words running through his mind, thinking how much Wyatt seemed to hate him right now, and thinking how much Elizabeth would hate him, "Thanks for letting me crash here."

"It's fine," Naff shrugged, "You're a friend who needed a place to stay. Do you want a lift to the airport?"

"If you don't mind," seeing Naff shake his head, Chris smiled, "Thanks. I have to be there for 9."

"That's fine," the 21-year-old nodded his head, "I can deal with that."

"Right, I'd better phone Piper," Chris sighed, "Tell her that tonight's my last night."

"That's going to sound good."

"Yeah, especially when I reckon Wyatt went to talk to her last night," Chris looked at his watch, "Well, she'll probably be at the restaurant around about now, so I'll go over. I'll see you in a bit."

"Ok."

Chris made his way out of the apartment and to the street so he could catch the bus, he hated this not being able to drive, but it was his own fault. Now he had to think about what he was going to say to Piper, rather than thinking back on his stupid mistake or crashing his car and loosing his license. He knew Wyatt would have said something to Piper last night, so she would be expecting him, which scared him even more, making him wonder what she was going to be like with him knowing exactly why he was going to be there. However, as soon as he stepped into the restaurant, she acted like she had not heard.

"Hey sweetie," Piper hugged Chris, "You look so tired, Chris, are you ok?"

"Erm…Can I talk to you?" Chris asked, biting his bottom lip. Wyatt had spoken to her, right? It actually worried him more if Wyatt had not said anything to his mother.

"Of course you can," Piper nodded her head with a smile on her face, "Just go to my office and I'll be with you in a minute."

The Perry made his way behind the bar and into Piper Halliwell's office and sat down, waiting for her to come to see him. He looked at her desk and noticed a photo that he remembered very well. It was of Wyatt, himself and Elizabeth, when Elizabeth was only two, in fact it was her second birthday, when they had taken her to the park, while everybody else set up her surprise birthday party at the Manor. Matthew had come with them, to keep out of the while decorations had been set up, so had taken the photo for them. He smiled at the look on Lizzie's face, they were all sat on the floor with Lizzie in the middle, both the boys had their arms wrapped around her on either side, and were both blowing raspberries on her cheek, causing her to giggle. They had never realised that Matt had taken a photo of it until the photos had been developed, and Piper had pinched it to put on her desk at work straight away, saying it was so cute.

"That was a good day." Chris heard the Halliwell woman's voice behind him and then a door closing. Putting the photo back on the desk, Chris looked at Piper with a weak smile.

"Yeah," Chris agreed, "A day I'll never forget."

"Did you ever get the black current juice out of her top?"

"No," the 21-year-old laughed, as Piper sat down behind her desk. Seeing that photo reminded Chris of the good times that he had had with Wyatt and Lizzie, making him wonder whether he was making the right decision, "Anyway, I needed to talk to you."

"About quitting?"

Chris looked into the hazel eyes of his boss, so Wyatt had said something, making him wonder whether he was happier he had or not. Slowly nodding his head, he saw Piper sigh, causing him to bit his bottom lip. He knew straight away this was going to be a long night.

Ok, so please leave me a little review to tell me what you thought about it. :D
