BORN FROM PASSION
NOTE: If these Charmed characters were mine then I would change a lot about this current season but, sadly, I own none of these guys.
A/N: Hello, all. This story takes place at the end of season four of Charmed, only Piper isn't pregnant. Cole had been vanished to the demon wasteland and the angel of destiny had offered the Charmed ones the chance to remove their magic, remember? Well, enjoy the story.
CHAPTER 2
Paige sat at the kitchen counter later that morning, pouring herself a bowl of cereal. She looked back in time to see Piper, who was removing her jacket, and Leo walk in. Piper, with a deep sigh, took a seat at the kitchen table.
"Hey," Paige greeted softly, taking her cereal over to the table and pulling out a chair for herself. "How'd it go?"
"Negative," Leo replied regrettably.
Paige turned to Piper who said, her head propped up on her hand, "The doctor determined it. I'm not pregnant."
"Oh." Paige reached out and put a comforting hand on her sister's shoulder. "I'm sorry."
"I just thought..." Piper trailed off, obviously upset but kept it silent. "I was so sure I was pregnant this time."
Leo put his arm around her. "Hey, it's going to be OK," he assured her. "We're going to get pregnant, Piper. I promise you."
Piper released a weak smile as she said, "It's out of your hands."
Paige and Leo exchanged a look, neither of them knowing what to say to her.
Phoebe came down then, clad in a blue midriff and lightly colored jeans that were nearly white. She absent mindedly went over to the coffee maker, took hold of the pot, and poured herself a cup; plain black. As she took a light sip Paige approached her.
"Well, morning, Ms. Sleep," Paige said, putting a hand to her hip.
"Hmm?" Phoebe glanced at her family.
"Phoebe, are you OK?" Leo asked with immediate concern.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine," Phoebe said, turning away and going back to her coffee.
"Phoebe, honey," Piper said, standing. "I kind of had dibs on being the vague, depressed one."
"Oh, sorry, guys," Phoebe apologized lightly. "It's just that... I had this kind of weird dream last night. I barely got back to sleep."
"Well, do you think it was a premonition within a dream?" Paige thought. "I mean that's happened to you before, right?"
"No," Phoebe replied all too quickly and caught herself. "I... doubt that was it."
"Well, what was the dream about?" Leo asked.
Phoebe thought for a moment. Did she really want to share that very "graphic" dream with her very male white lighter? "Nothing," Phoebe replied simply then left the room with her coffee.
"Uh huh," Paige nodded her head. "Well, she's all... oddish." She turned to the married couple. "Anyway, I'm off to bring home the bacon." Paige headed out of the kitchen.
"Yeah, same here," Piper said but Leo caught her arm.
"You sure you feel like going to work?" Leo asked her.
"Hey, you know, I'm fine," Piper said. "I mean, yes, I want to get pregnant but I can't let it take over my life. There are still things to do around here that can't just be put on hold for it."
Leo nodded in agreement and Piper walked out. Leo knew she wasn't exactly all right, but she would be eventually.
A/N: I'm sorry this chapter was so short. But I loved the feedback I got on the first chapter. Keep it up and I'll update quicker.
