It was the day after Argus' vanquish. All the Innocents had been safely returned home, thanks to Leo's and Paige's orbing powers. Most importantly, the kids were safe.
Piper sat down on the porch, next to her sisters. They were watching Leo play with Peter and Ty. Camille was sitting on Paige's lap, brushing her doll's hair. They looked like a normal, happy family.
Leo caught Piper's eye and, telling the boys to play by themselves for a while, went over to her. "You want to take a walk?" he offered.
Piper nodded. Leaving the kids with Phoebe and Paige, she and Leo set off down the street.
"I've been thinking about what you said yesterday, in the attic." he told her.
"I have, too." she replied.
"And?" he asked.
"And, I just don't know."
He sighed, and they continued on in silence.
"What have you been thinking?" she asked suddenly.
"I've been thinking that we can make this work," he responded. "I've asked the Elders to reassign some of my charges. I'll be working a lot less now, and I'll have more time to spend with you and the kids. We can cut down on the amount of time we spend teaching them the craft, if you want. They've got plenty of time to learn. Right now, the most important thing is our family. I'll do anything to keep from losing you."
She slipped her hand into his, and they turned back.
"What happened?" Paige asked as Piper rejoined her sisters. "What did he say?"
"Don't worry," she said, smiling. "I think we're going to be okay."
