Chapter 5
She peered into Piper's room and squinted to try and see who the dark
figured staring at Piper was. She pushed the door open and tip-toed
inside. "Leo is that you?" she whispered. "Uh yeah.it is." he said
wiping his face. "Wha? Wha.Wait a second." She said confusingly.
"Piper told us you sometimes come to see Wyatt at night.but that's a
lie isn't it?" her eyes searched for an answer. "She's beautiful when
she's sleeping, so peaceful." he said quietly. "Oh my god." Phoebe
muttered under her breath. Leo stood up, "I'm sorry I shouldn't be
here, please don't tell Piper about this." Phoebe stopped him, "No,
Leo.it's ok.let's just go downstairs and talk." Leo agreed and then
quietly exited out of Piper's room. Phoebe turned to Leo, "But first!
I gotta pee." Leo quietly laughed and waited for Phoebe to come join
him in the kitchen.
Not even 2 minutes later Phoebe sat down beside Leo at the
kitchen table. She glanced at Leo, "Alright, I promise I won't tell
Piper, but you gotta talk to me." Leo rubbed his eyes and sighed. "I'm
going crazy without her Pheebs." He got up and began to pace around
the kitchen. "I can't believe this is happening, I mean we were so
happy! Then I went and screwed it all up!" Phoebe wasn't sure she was
hearing right. She knew Leo didn't want to leave Piper, but she would
have never thought that he would blame himself. "Leo what are you
talking about, you know you had no choice." Leo turned and looked at
her. "Didn't I?!" She could see the tears starting to well up in his
eyes. "She's everything to me Phoebe, Wyatt too, and you guys! And I
just left. To be an elder.I hate the elders!" Leo looked down at the
floor and spoke quietly, "All my life I've been no one really
important, I just wanted to be somebody. I was so blinded by that, by
my stupid pride to see what I was really losing. Now it's too late,
I've lost all that has ever really mattered to me. I'd give it all up
if I knew there was still a chance." Phoebe looked over at Leo
sympathetically, "Don't be such a pessimist Leo, you two are soulmates
there's always a chance." Leo looked up, "No, I want her to be happy,
I want her to have the normal life she's always wanted, I've always
wanted that for her, I just didn't know I was stopping her." There was
silence in the room, until Leo spoke up again. "The funny thing is,
they don't even need me anymore, they told me I could go back to my
family." Phoebe's heart reached out to both Leo and Piper who were
silently hurting, she spoke softly, "Leo." He cut her off, "Just
please don't tell Piper, I want her to be happy.If you need me just
call." He said as he orbed off.
TBC.
