Phoebe hadn't felt that spark in a long time, nor had she felt so unbelievably delusional. How could that be Cole? Cole was dead...She had killed Cole, that couldn't be Cole, yet the man in front of her had Cole's eyes and Cole's nose and Cole's lips and Cole's body...it was Cole...
"excuse me" he said politely. He knew she had recognized him, but she was so shocked. "I'm sorry, I was...I didn't see you" he said again, not wanting to leave. He knew that if he saw her again, he wouldn't be able to leave, he knew this was going to happen. "It's ok..." she said uneasily, still not knowing if her mind was playing tricks on her. She looked up at him, wanting to touch him juts to make sure this wasn't a figment of her imagination
"Cole?" she asked. He nodded a slight affirmation and looked at her, "yeah" he said. He wanted so much to leave. To run back to safe New York where she wasn't going to be around. She was more dangerous then all the muggers in that city. "I...I...I thought...I...you died..." she said in a whisper. She was almost afraid of saying it. He nodded another affirmation. What had happened to her? She seemed older, like she was defeated...
"I came back...." he said shyly, "they brought me back" he said. There were so many emotions inside of him, so many feelings that were resurfaced, so much madness. He had never meant to get the way he had last time, but not having her drove him crazy, literally. He was crazy when he was near her, he hated her and loved her and lusted and yearned for her.
She looked at him, a little out of it still. "who brought you back?" she asked. "The uh...the avatars..." he said. He looked down at the floor, just so he wouldn't have to look at her. "No..." she said nodding, "no...you can't...I killed you..." she said. Cole nodded and he hated her even more. Throwing that in his face, as if it were something she were proud of. And all of the reasons of why he had left this city came back, and why he had stayed away from her, and of why he hated her so much.
"I have to go" he said, he bumped into another person on his way out, but fluttered past them in a frenzy, trying to get as far away from her as possible. He walked quickly down the street holding his papers nervously. He looked like a frightened little boy...or girl...
Probably a girl, he thought. He rushed into his apartment and threw the papers on the table. He leaned against the door of the apartment, and tried to breathe, but all he could breathe was her smell, the way she looked at him, he was losing his sanity again...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Phoebe watched him scurry out of the coffee shop, and ran out the door. She watched him walk quickly rather then run away from the coffee house, down the street, away from her. Why was Cole running? Cole never ran...Cole used to be dead...she thought. And soon enough he was gone as quickly as he came. She wanted to die, she didn't even get a glimpse of where he was staying or what he was doing or...anything.
She really needed to get out of that street. She got in her car and called her office, telling them that she would be working from home. She arrived at the manor, her face pale and inexpressive, still in shock. And her state was obvious to her sisters, they watched her come in the kitchen compelled and worried.
"Phoebe?" Piper asked, leading her to the table and sitting her down. "honey, you're shaking" she said, "Paige..." Piper said, Paige nodded and brought her a cup of tea. "Phoebe, what happened?" Paige asked concerned. Phoebe looked at the two and nodded in disbelief. "I was at the coffee house and he was there too..." she said. Piper looked at Paige, "honey...who was there?" Piper asked, "oh! Was it that monster thingy from last night?" Paige asked. Piper slapped her arm to which Paige winced and shrugged.
"no.." Phoebe said. "he's back...he can't be back Piper, can he? Am I going crazy? I killed him.." she said, tears welling up in her eyes. Piper looked at Paige and they knew what it was about. The only man Phoebe had ever killed was Cole, and that explained exactly why she was acting like this.
"Phoebe...he is dead, he can't be back..." Piper said. Phoebe nodded, "but he is...he was in that coffee place, and he was there just drinking his giant Mocha latte" she said, tears falling down her eyes. Paige was watching the whole spectacle, still not believing it, after all they had done, he was back? Again? "no!" she screamed, "he can't be back Phoebe, we killed him, you killed him, it couldn't have been him! You're not seeing well!" she screamed.
Phoebe watched her sister go crazy, she knew it was a shock to her, of all people. She despised Cole. "Paige..." Piper said, "it's true Piper" Phoebe said, "he talked to me, and he said the avatars brought him back, and he's an avatar..." Phoebe said, swallowing, she had a huge knot in her throat.
Piper looked at her. "ok, there has got to be a way for this..." she said, before the crying of her baby made her lose contact with her sisters. "I'm gonna go get Parker.." she said, as she exited the room. Leaving the two remaining sisters in shock in the living room, Paige broke the silence "LEO?!???!!!!" she screamed, Phoebe jumped quite a bit, and looked around as Leo orbed in.
They finished telling Leo everything, and as shocked as he was, he orbed up there to find out if it was true. As soon as Leo left, Piper came down with baby Parker in her arms, who was now 4 months old, and the pride and joy of the whole Halliwell family. "we told Leo to find out..." Paige said, still stunned. Piper nodded and sat down in front of her sisters, almost as shocked as they were, because let's face it, Cole ALWAYS found a way to come back....
Leo orbed back in nodded, "it's all true..." he said, "Cole was brought back by the avatars and as an avatar has been living in New York for the past 6 months" he explained. "he's in San Francisco to help us..." he explained. Phoebe looked at him in disbelief. "no, that can't be, why didn't he say anything to me about helping us?" she asked, "he just ran away like a little girl..." she said rubbing her temples, this was all to much to take...
"well, he has to be here for a reason..." Piper said, "maybe it has something to do with that thing we were fighting" she continued. "maybe that's what he's here for..." she said. Phoebe nodded again, "no, no, no, no....he can't, if he was then why'd he run?" she asked. Leo grabbed Phoebe, Piper and touched Paige, "there's only one way to find out..." he said, as he orbed them.
When they reappeared, they were standing in front of Cole who was sitting at a table at a luxurious penthouse, much like the one he had before, reading some papers. When he turned around, he almost fell off his chair, he began backing away from them, pointing his finger at them, "no, no!" he screamed, "stay away from me..." he said, he looked almost scared, "stay away!!" he screamed, "you! Especially you!" he said pointing at Phoebe, "get out of here!" he yelled, he was actually scared of Phoebe...
