Piper and King Leonardo

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Couple of weeks went by and Leo and Piper just talked normal chit chat stuff but nothing on a husband and wife level. The only time they saw each other was at breakfast and dinner other than that they lived there own lifes in the big home of his. With Leo's help Paige was also able to get the care that she need and was well.

Piper was in her room trying out her new dresses, she had her own tailor. She was living the good life she thought. Here she hand everything a girl could dream of without having to do the work of a wife. This was a dream come true for Piper. Then there was a knock at the door

"Who is it?" Piper asked

"It is me, Leo"

"Just a second" Piper yelled

She quickly tied her dress and opened the door "Sorry were you busy?" Leo asked

"Um no. I was just trying on some dresses that is all"

"I came to ask you if you wanted to accompany me to dinner tonight at the Ewing's house. I am invited and so are you. If you do not want to come I can understand"

Piper thought for a while "No that is all right I will come"

"All right then dinner is at 6" Leo said and then left

Piper turned back to her tailor "I have a dinner party to attend tonight Mary?" Piper said

"I have the prefect dress" Mary said

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was dinner time at the Ewing's, everyone took a seat. Piper was new to this but she fit in quickly with everyone else with the help of her husband

"So Leo son. I must say it was a surprise when we heard you got married" Mr. Ewing said

"Yes it was" A lady said

"Well I had to get married one day" Leo told them

"Well it looks like you found a very beautiful lady" Mr. Ewing said as he smiled at Piper.

This brought a smile to Piper's face. No one outside her family had told her she was beautiful and to have one of these people say it made her feel proud. Leo had told her a couple of times she was beautiful and before they left for dinner, but she thought he only said that because he was her husband

Dinner was over and Leo and Piper headed back home. Piper was getting out of the carriage as Leo held her hand. He was a gentleman all right. They walked in the house arm in arm and up to Piper's bedroom

"I want to thank you for coming with me to the Ewing's tonight" Leo told Piper as they were standing in front or Piper bedroom door

"That is all right"

"Well I will let you go to bed. Goodnight" Leo said and then left

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was the next day and Piper made her way into the kitchen, she wanted something to drink. She enter the kitchen to find Leo there laughing with one of the cooks, Sally. Sally had been in the family for years, but what surprised Piper was Leo seem to get along real well with her and all the people that worked for him for that matter. It was like they didn't see him as the King but as a son or a friend

Leo stopped laughing when him and Sally notice Piper in the kitchen. Everyone else stop their work and stared

"Piper what are you doing here?" Sally asked

"I just came to get something to drink" Piper said

"Well why did you not call someone?" Sally asked

"No. I can do it myself" Piper said as she when over to a bucket to get a glass of water "I will just take this up to my room and bring back the glass when I am done" Piper said and left as Leo watched her

It was the morning and Piper was in her room on the balcony looking out at the garden. She saw some of the gardeners at work and went down

"Hello" Piper said to the gardeners

"Our Queen" one of the gardeners said "I am John"

"Hello John it is nice to meet you and please do call me Piper"

"As you wish. How may I help you Piper?"

"Well I came to see if you needed help"

"Help" John asked surprised "Piper this our job"

"But I want to help"

"I can not let you do that"

"Why? I am married to the King and you have to listen to what I say" Piper said as she smiled

"Well if you say so. Come here" John said. Piper followed John to a small garden that had no flowers but only weeds "This should keep you busy. Your own little garden"

"Thank you" Piper said

"If you need help just ask"

Piper spent most of her day in her own garden pulling out weeds, by the time she was done she had mud all over her

"I do not know if there is more mud on your dress or in that garden" John joked to Piper

Piper laughed "Well I am done and now I am going to see what flowers I can plant"

"Piper" Leo said has he walked into the garden and saw Piper. Piper turned around "What happened to you?" Leo asked has he saw Piper with mud on her dress and on her cheeks too

"I was working in the garden" Piper told Leo

"I see"

"Do you need me?" Piper asked

"No. I asked Sally where you were and she told me you were working in the garden" Leo said as he pull out napkin and gave it to Piper

Piper wiped her cheeks "Well as you can see I am nearly done I just need to plant some flowers"

"Well it is the season for Roses. I like Roses" Leo said

"Really. What color?" Piper asked

"I always thought white Roses are beautiful. Listen I have to go now to attend some business matters. I will see you at dinner" Leo said

"All right then"

"Bye" Leo said to Piper "Bye John" Leo said

"Bye Leo" John said

Piper stood there for a while. Leo was so nice, kind and caring she thought, not because he had to be, he just was. So for him she was going to plant white Roses in her garden

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was dinner time that night and as normal Piper and Leo just had dinner together but nothing much was said

"Um Leo I wanted to asked you something?" Piper said

"What is it Piper?" Leo asked

"Well I have not seen my Mother and sisters in sometime and I want to visit them tomorrow"

"Piper you do not have to ask me. You can visit your family when ever you want or even if you want to go somewhere" Leo said

Piper smiled at Leo "I will arrange transport for you" Leo said as they carried on eating dinner

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Ma" Piper yelled as she came to her family's new home

"Piper honey is that you?" Patty said as she ran out of the kitchen

"Ma" Piper yelled as she ran into her mother arms "I am so happy to see you"

"Piper" Paige and Phoebe yelled as they hugged their sister

"So honey how have you been?" Patty asked

"Oh Ma you won't believe how lucky I am. I have everything I could dream of. I went to the market today to get you something's" Piper said

"Honey we have everything we need" Patty said

"You do?" Piper asked

"Yes every week some men deliver groceries for us and Sally comes by every now and then to see if we have everything we need" Patty said

"You do?"

"Yeah and Leo has come by to give us money if we need anything" Phoebe added

"He also visited me when I was sick" Paige said Piper looked at Paige "And he also told us if we want anything to ask him and not Ma, because he knows Ma would tell him not to get it for us"

"But he never told me anything" Piper said

"Oh honey I thought you knew" Patty said

"I did not. I never told him anything about you guys"

"Gees thank Sis" Phoebe said

"No I mean we do not really talk much. He does his own thing and I do my own"

"Really?" Phoebe asked

"Yes he does not ask for much from me, he just looks after me. He said I do not have to do anything I do not want to" Piper said

"Your lucky" Paige said

"Well I am here to spend the whole day with my family"

"What about your husband" Phoebe asked

"Leo said it is all right. In fact he said I do not have to asked him if I want to go anywhere" Piper said with a smile

The day went fast and Piper enjoyed herself with her family. Prue even came over with Anita. Time few by that Piper didn't notice it was very late. She went home to find Leo had already gone to bed. Well that's what she thought

"King Leo your wife is home and safe" One of the men told Leo who was pacing in his bedroom

"Thank you" Leo said

"Not a problem" the man said and left. Leo went to bed
