Chapter 37

"Where are you going so early?" Prue asked Piper.

"Work."

"Didn't you hear what I said, he's a killer!"

"Yes Prue, I heard you."

"But you chose to ignore me. Belfour said Belthazor killed The
Source."

"Then he's good."

Prue was speechless. Piper didn't seem to care what she was saying.

"Why can't you understand that I'm only trying to help you?"

"Look Prue, I broke up with Cole, what more do you want?"

"I want you to quit your job."

"Not going to happen."

"Cole was in his office, pacing, when Leo knocked on the door.

"Here are last night's receipts." Leo said, watching Cole pace.

"What's wrong boss?"

"Piper want's to know about Belthazor, what do I tell her?"

"The truth."

"I'm scared."

Leo smiled. "Of course you're scared, you love her. Just level with
her. She loves you and she'll understand."

"I hope you're right." Cole said, as he slowly sat down, in his chair.

Piper was waiting on a customer when she felt Cole watching her.

"Hi." She whispered.

"Have lunch with me and I'll tell you everything."

"Hi, Phoebe."

"Hi." She whispered, blushing. "Is Piper around?"

Before Leo could answer, Piper walked over to the bar and ordered
some drinks.

"Piper? Are you okay?"

"What are you doing here, Phoebe?"

"You don't remember?"

Piper looked at her sister and then it hit her. The plan, they were
supposed to put their plan into motion, today.

"I'm sorry Phoebe, not now; I have other things on my mind. I'll call
you later."

"Are you okay?"

"No, but I will be after I talk to Cole."
