Reunited

Disclaimer: I do not own any characters in this story, they are all owned by the people that make the show Charmed.

A/N: I usually don't like when people do this, but I've been writing this story and I wanted to see how people liked it before I wasted my summer writing it. I have two finals left this week and after I'm done with them I'll probably post them. If I get reviews, even one or two, you can look for the rest of my story in late June, early July. Also let me know if you'd like me to post one chapter at a time or post the whole thing at one time when it's all done.

Setting: This story takes place one month after the season five finale, "Oh My Goddess." Leo is still an Elder, but Chris did not blow him up, he just went back to the future and was never "evil" (if he is indeed evil.)

The Beginning

Leo is watching his wife try to bind his son's powers because he has been orbing up to his father too often, when Rolan steps in and interrupts him. He missed them so much, and wanted this rare moment to be with them without interruption. This had been the hardest month of his life long life, and he knew Piper was going through the same thing he was. Leo hears the footsteps and turns around to face the Elder who always had the most doubt in him.

"Leo, you must embrace your new destiny. If you were meant to be with Piper and Wyatt, you wouldn't have been chosen for this!" Not wanting to prove Rolan right, but not being able to help it, Leo exploded. "I don't care!!! I miss my wife and my son! Do you hear that?? My wife and my son. They obviously miss me too. How many five month old witches have you heard of that orb themselves to their father? And why aren't you more concerned? Wyatt, the most powerful being ever, is not going to be a proper whitelighter without me to teach him."

"That's not true." Replied Rolan, "he has got Paige. She is getting better everyday, she can teach him."

"That won't be good enough!" Screamed Leo, "Paige is a good whitelighter but has only developed orbing. She can barely sense, can't heal without me, can't hover or do anything else whitelighter like. She is a witch not a whitelighter, speaking of being a witch, don't you remember the new power she will be getting soon, there is no way she will have enough time to teach him."

"How did you know about that power. No one is supposed to know about that."

"I am your boss Rolan. I can see the future, better than you can might I add. Besides, Piper needs me and I need her. She is the strongest person I know, but she cannot battle demons, raise a son, watch out for her sisters, and still have a life without me. Phoebe and Paige need me too, I'm not just their brother-in-law, I'm their whitelighter, and more importantly their friend."

"Well Piper has her nanny and sisters to help her out with Wyatt-"

"It's not the same. Sometimes they're off battling demons, and the nanny won't be around all the time. Wyatt needs his father."

"He will have one in time. Like you, Piper will learn to move on in time."

"Don't ever say that! I am his father and will not be replaced!

Piper is sitting in her room with Wyatt in her arms looking at her wedding picture talking to herself. "Leo, how could you leave me? I'm trying to be strong, but I don't think I can. I tried to bind Wyatt's powers but I just couldn't. I secretly hoped I'd be holding him the next time he orbed to you. I miss you so much Leo."

Phoebe and Paige knock lightly on the door, signaling they are entering her room. "Hey Piper!" Greets Phoebe, trying to cheer her big sister up, her baby voice always worked. "What 'cha doing?"

Looking up from the only man in her life for the past month, "Oh nothing, just trying not to hate myself for missing my husband so much and wanting him here."

Paige being curious as usual, "Oh sweetie, why do you hate yourself for wanting the love of your life back? That sounds perfectly reasonable to me."

"Because I can't help but think I'm being selfish because Leo wants this and he's the Leader of all that is good in the world. What scares me the most, more than having to do all this on my own, is that I don't know if he wants to be with Leo more than he wants to be with me and his son."

"Oh honey, you know that's not true. He loves you more than anything. I wasn't there, but from what Phoebe has told me, you fought so hard to be together."

"And has since the day he met you," added Phoebe. "Remember how he almost clipped his wings for you like three weeks after he met you? He risked his life by coming to you when he was dying. He could have gone to get healed but he chose to spend his last moments with you. He broke the rules he lived by for almost 50 years to cure you. His wings were clipped anyway, and when he did try to marry you, remember that pain he went through when the Elders found out?"

With a determined look on her face all Piper said was, "there has to be a way to get him back."

Little did the girls know, someone had been watching the whole scene. Just then, they stepped out from the shadows to reveal themselves as...

A/N: Sorry, another thing I hate, cliffhangers. I was just hoping that this would get you to review faster seeing as I have another chapter and a half already written and ready to post. Let me know if you like the format I used to write or if I should change it.
