"Daddy? Can you tell me a story?" 6 year old Alexis asked me, yawning.
"Sure sweetie. What story do you want to hear tonight?" I replied, tucking her in and then sat down on the bed next to her.
"Ummmmm, Melinda said her daddy told her a story about how Auntie Piper and Uncle Leo fell in love. Can you tell me how you and mummy fell in love?"
"I don't know sweetie…how about I read Cinderella again?" I hedged.
"NO. I wanna hear 'bout you and mummy! Pwwweeeaassssssssseeeee, daddy????" Alexis pleaded in a childish voice.
"Oh all right squirt…..here goes…" I said, closing my eyes and relaxing, thinking back. "The first time I saw her, I was so stunned. She was beautiful, her long black hair flowing luxuriously down her back, and those baby blues of hers sparkling back at me. She wasn't that tall, I noticed that - but it was ok, because I liked my women petite. Her voice was unique - special, you could say. It wasn't like her sister's voice. It was throaty and sexy as hell - I fell in love with her voice the minute I heard it. She had a figure to die for and the way she walked - let's just say that if you watched her walk, you were very likely to become hypnotized. She had the darkest of blue eyes - so dark that they were almost gray, yet they shone with light and happiness. You could drown in those eyes, and I did - quite a few times. Oh, I'm not saying that she was perfect - she was far from it. She was stubborn as anything, proud and over-protective. But I didn't care. To me, she was the best. The first time I saw their idiot of a cop friend hug her, I swear, I could have pulled him apart. In fact I almost did - the only thing that stopped me was the fact that she cared about him as a friend. The nights at the club were nothing short of hell - having to watch her dance with those men that weren't me and pretend not to care. I used to watch her sleep sometimes - she used to wear these really short shorts and a sleeveless tank top that drove me nuts. She had the sweetest smile on her face when she was asleep. I used to hope that she was dreaming about me. I have to tell you squirt, I really tried not to fall in love with her. I knew what the consequences were. But she slowly wore me down, and you know what the worst part was? She had no idea that she was doing it. When they went up against demons, I did everything I could to protect her - although I had to make it look like I wasn't of course. When she found out who I was, she hated me I think. I had lied to her and her sister's over and over again. Hell, I had tried to kill them once or twice. But eventually she started trusting me again - that's when I finally got the courage to ask her for a dance. She seemed surprised - but she said yes. That first time I held her in my arms for real - it was like going to heaven. The singer was new - no one famous, but she had a great voice - not as great as your mother's though. I could feel her skin under my finger tips - it was as soft as silk, and I think that's when I truly realized that I was in love with her. When I looked into her eyes that second, I almost fell down with shock. For in her eyes, I saw her love. Her love for me. She must have realized that I knew because she stiffened, and went really pale. She tried to run, but I wouldn't - couldn't, let her go. I had to know for sure. So I just looked at her, trying to get her to look at me. When she wouldn't, I got impatient, so I shimmered us out of there. We ended up at the park and when she finally looked at me, I asked her if what I saw was true. When she softly nodded and then looked down, I picked her up and spun her around. And then I did what I had wanted to do ever since I saw her - I kissed those soft lips of hers. If I thought that dancing with her was heaven, then this was a million times better. She sort of melted into me, and well, wow. That had to be one of the best kisses I had ever had. But then she broke away from me. Her eyes were watery and she was crying. When I tried to reach for her again, she said something that stopped me cold. She said that even though she loved me so much it hurt, she couldn't just sleep with me for the hell of it. I felt like scum just then - how could I have not seen this coming. So I lifted her chin with my finger and mad her look at me. I let her see the love I had for her, and when she looked at me wondering, I kissed her again. This time I told her how much she meant to me. Three long, happy months later, we got married. She looked so beautiful in her wedding dress. She was my angel, and then five months later we found out the best news. We were having a baby - you sweetie. And that is my version of how your mother and I fell in love." I finally opened my eyes to see Alexis fast asleep and my wife laughing in the doorway. I got up and walked over to her. "What's so funny?" I asked curiously.
"Nothing. You do realize that she probably never understood a word of it right - she's only 6."
"I suppose your right."
"Not that it matters anyway - she fell asleep at 'the first time I saw her'. I on the other hand, heard it all. And I also noticed that you left quite a bit out... Have I told you recently how much I love you, Cole Turner?" She asked me before leaning in to kiss me. She giggled when I picked her up and shimmered us into our bedroom.
"Somethings I'd rather forget...and in response to your question, I don't know about you, but I'll tell you this right now - I fell in love with you from the moment I first saw you Prue Halliwell, and I will love you for the rest of my life." I said back before kissing her again.
