Prue, Phoebe and Leo were finishing dinner when Piper ran into the kitchen. "Okay, how do I look?" Piper asked the three of them. "That's the 5th outfit you tried on. You're going to be late." Phoebe said. "What time is it?" Piper asked. "It's 7:00." Prue said. "Oh no! I better get going!" Piper exclaimed. "I need to be at P3 at 7:30 to show Cole around!" "Who's Cole?" Leo asked. "My new bartender/handyman." Piper said.

When Piper arrived at P3 Cole was waiting outside. As Piper showed him around she explained what his job would entail. When they reached the bar Piper asked him "You do know how to fix drinks, don't you?" Cole smiled. "I wouldn't have applied for the job if I didn't know how to fix drinks." Piper smiled back. "Just checking."

At 9:30 Prue, Phoebe and Leo arrived. "Piper, I thought you had a date with Dan?" Prue asked. "I broke it. I had to show Cole around the club." "Where is he?" Prue asked as she looked around. "Over by Phoebe and Leo." Piper answered. "Cute. Very cute." Prue said. Prue noticed that Piper was distracted. "Piper, what's the matter?" "Nothing's wrong. I'm just busy." "Piper you broke three dates with Dan in two weeks , why?" Phoebe asked as she joined Prue and Piper. "Now's not the time. We'll talk, tomorrow. I promise." Piper said.

Dan spotted Leo as soon as he entered the club. "Hi, Leo. Have you seen Piper?" "She's over there talking to Prue and Phoebe." Leo said as he pointed to the bar.

"Piper, we really need to talk." "Not now Dan. I'm busy." You're always busy!" Dan whined. "Don't whine. It's annoying." "Piper, we need to talk." "Not today. Tomorrow. We'll go out to dinner and talk. I promise." Piper said as they walked to the bar. "Cole, here's the napkins you asked for." "Thanks, Piper."

Cole was listening to Piper's conversation. He didn't mean to. Cole didn't like Dan. Dan reminded him of a big baby. Harping on the same subject over and over again. How could Piper put up with that. She's too good for Dan. Hell, she's too good for me too. Cole thought to himself.

"Cole I need to talk to you. Meet me in my office in 10 minutes. Prue, Phoebe, keep an eye on things for me. I'll be in my office."

Cole was nervous. What did I do wrong he wondered as he knocked on the door. "Come in Cole." Piper said from the other side of the door. "You wanted to see me?" Cole asked. God, he's so good-looking. And that smile. "Piper, You wanted to see me?" "What? Oh yes. I won't be here tomorrow, to open. I want you to open for me. I'll be in about 9:30-10." "No problem." Cole sighed. "What's wrong?" "I thought you were firing me." "Why? You're doing a great job." "Thanks for trusting me. It means a lot." "You're welcome." As Cole walked out the door Piper couldn't resist looking. "Pure's right. He is fine looking." Piper said to an empty room.
