Another?

Patrick: 2 yrs. Powers: Bound

~Piper's POV~

I paced quietly back and forth across the bathroom in front of the sink just waiting. I heard a light knock and then Leo poked his head through the door, "Are you okay, you've been in here for awhile and I was getting worried," Leo asked concern plastered on his face.

"I'm fine, just waiting, where's Patty?" I motioned towards the sink.

"Down stairs with Paige.do you think?" He asked looking over at me I gave a slight nod, "How long?"

"About a minute, why is Paige here?" I asked she and Glen had recently married and were living next door.

"She wanted to talk to you.are you ready for this?" He asked looking at his watch and then back at me.

"I can't look, you do it," I shoved him towards the sink, he picked up the box and the stick comparing them his faced formed a beautiful smile, "I'm gonna be a Daddy, Patty's going to be a big brother, and you are going to be the most beautiful creature, a mother," his eyes started to fill with tears as he placed his hand on my flat tummy.

"I can't wait, how do you think Patty will react?" I asked, all too aware of the fact that only children sometimes weren't receptive to new babies.

"He'll love the idea, and we don't have to tell him right away either," Leo said, we heard a loud noise then we both screamed, "Paige!"

We both came bounding into the kitchen to see it covered in flour and two white figures playing with it in the floor.

"What happened?" I asked going to pick Patrick up out of the floor successfully covering most of myself as well before Leo took the small boy away.

"Well I was getting tired of waiting and Patty was hungry so I started to cook, I dropped the flour on the floor and then got so caught up in the laughter with Patty," Paige went rambling on as she tried to clean herself up.

"Well what was that loud crash.Thank you Patty that is just what Daddy wanted," Leo said sarcastically as the little boy threw flour in his face. "Well that was Patty and I falling on to the ground with laughter," Paige said sheepishly as she continued to clean herself up.

"Made mess, big mess" Patty said looking around the once clean kitchen.

"Yes Patty, you made very big mess now we have to go have a bath," Leo said heading up the stairs.

"Paige what did you want to talk about?" I asked starting to clean up the mess.

"Oh, Glen found this in our basement and wondered if you knew about it," Paige pulled out a locket from her pocket, opening it and handing it to me.

"Why do you.Oh," My face fell staring at the small black and white photo of Dan and myself right before I chose Leo, "Hauck it, keep the money, don't mention to Leo," I said heading up to the bathroom to help Leo.

"Okay, I'll just show myself out," Paige yelled from the foot of the stairs.

"What are my boys doing up here?" I ask opening the bathroom door, to Leo bathing Patty with his shirt off, "Well I guess somebody got a little happy with the splashing, "I said holding up the shirt Leo had on and it was soaking wet.

"Well mommy what's the fun of bath time without getting everybody wet?" Leo asked playfully as he washed the shampoo out of the dark hair that rested atop Patrick's head.

"I guess you make a good point, Daddy," I said grabbing a towel, "Come on Patty let's go get you dressed," Patty practically jumped into my arms.

"Hey, I got him," Leo said as he grabbed the squirming little boy, "you shouldn't be carrying him anyways."

"Well thanks for the lecture, Dr. Wyatt, but I think I can handle it," I said probably a bit to harshly.

"Piper, calm down okay? I was just trying to be the concerned husband and father," He said placing his hand on my stomach and balancing the still wet toddler with his other arm.

"Mommy, he good Daddy," Patty said looking at me his big green eyes so full of innocence, "I want to keep."

"Me too, Patty, I think he is a great daddy," I said looking more at Leo than the Patty, "So why don't we put some clothes on," I said watching Patrick snuggle closer to Leo's chest.

~Leo's POV~

After having dressed Patrick and going to pick out another shirt to put on, I came to the kitchen to see Piper busily making breakfast while Patrick sat in his high chair not five feet away from her.

"Piper I'll do that you sit," I said coming up behind her wrapping my arms around her waist resting my hand on her stomach. She moved out of my embrace grabbing a stool and sitting next to Patty.

"Mommy," Patty asked, "why Daddy make panake?"

"Because Daddy is sweet, and nice and very overprotective," Piper said directing that last comment towards me.

"I'm surprised you're anywhere near the kitchen anyway, last time you avoided this place at all costs," I said thinking back to the first couple of months of Piper's pregnancy with Patty.

"You had to remind me," Piper jolted up and out the door before I could catch her.

"Daddy what you do?" Patty asked looking at me very sternly.

"I didn't do anything, Mommy just doesn't feel good," I said knowing that Piper would want us to tell him together.

"Leo, if either one of you comes out of there with food or smelling like food, I am seriously going to hurt you," Piper warned from outside the kitchen door.

"Yes, dear," I served Patrick his pancakes telling him to be very care, and then went to talk to Piper, "honey you scared Patty, he thought I did something to you."

"You did do something to me," Piper joked patting her stomach, "Just don't ever forget it."

"Okay, okay you can blame it on me but you should really eat something," I said leading her back into the kitchen where Patrick sat working very hard not to make a mess while eating.

"Leo could you come with me to the club today, Patty's babysitter had to cancel, and Phoebe and Paige have to work?" Piper asked picking at the fruit I had put in front of her.

"Sure but only if you agree to let me take you out to dinner, child free," I emphazied the child free part.

"Really, don't make promises you can't keep," Piper said motioning toward Patty who was still focusing on his food.

"Ah, see I already have that taken care of all I needed was an exceptance," I said taking the now empty plate from a satisfied looking two-year-old.

"Well then I guess you have yourself a date," Piper grabbed the cloth wiping the tray and then the mouth and hands of the relatively clean Patrick.

"Yay Patty, Daddy's got a date, give me a five," I danced around giving Patrick a five and then picked him up and carried him towards the door.

"Mommy come on," Patty yelled from where he was perched on my shoulder, "Ready go!" Piper came into the foyer grabbing Patty's jacket putting it on him as he wiggled to her away. Grabbing my jacket I headed out to the jeep strapping Patrick into his carseat. Piper climbed in the passenger seat about two minutes later.
