1 Chapter 9

It was the day of Phoebe's funeral and everything was quiet at the Halliwell Manor. Cole was walking up and down the stairs, looking for somebody, but no one was home.

"I wonder where everybody is." He said to himself. He hadn't been back for a while, actually he never wanted to come back. Phoebe was in love with somebody else, he knew that, but something was different. He was always able to somehow feel Phoebe, but not anymore. For days now he had tried, but there was nothing. Slowly he walked into Phoebe's room, deciding to wait for her there.

He noticed that the curtains and the windows where shut and how the air started to smell bad. Phoebe had always liked fresh air and would always make sure that at least one window was open. Looking around more carefully Cole noticed an envelope on her desk with his name on it. He sat down on her bed and started reading the letter, not knowing what to expect.

My dearest Cole,

I hope that after reading this letter you'll understand and forgive me for what I did to you, to us and to our love. Yes, Cole, our Love. I never stopped loving you and I never will. You are my soul mate, my other half, my one true love, but I had to do what I did and would do it again – all for you and for my family.

I was the One, Cole, the chosen One, the one to marry the Prince of Darkness. He was going to kill you and Leo if I would refuse. I had to send you away, to make sure that nothing would happen to you. I couldn't safe myself but I knew that I could safe you and that was all that mattered to me. But I'm not going to marry him, I would never marry anybody but you. I will die either way, but I will not die evil.

With my last heartbeat and my last breath I will think of you and wait for you in heaven. Please, Cole, you have to live for the both of us now. Live good, do good and I know I will see you again. Until then I will be watching you, my love. And please forgive me. I'm sorry. Always, Phoebe

"Noo!" Cole screamed, breaking down in tears. "Nooo!"

A little while later Cole got up and shimmered out – to the mausoleum where Prue's grave was. And there, next to her grave was Phoebe's grave. He read the gravestone and felt his heart warm just a little. "Beloved sister and soul mate."

"I knew you would come, Cole. I knew you would come. I hope it was all right to say that Phoebe was your soul mate. I didn't know what else to say, but I knew that Phoebe would have wanted it like this. She wasn't only our sister, she was your Love. She would have wanted me to mention is somehow."

Slowly Piper went over to Cole and hugged him. They both knew that they would always have one another. They were a family and always would be, and Phoebe watched them live their lives, smiling down from heaven.

The End

I'd like to thank everybody for all the wonderful reviews and get special thanks out to my friend Becca: Without you writing stories would be less fun. You are the best. Thank you.
