Disclaimer: For now, I don't own any of the characters except for Greg and the human/demon. But I may add more characters of my own, I'm not sure. The spells and things coming from the Book of Shadows are also my creation.

A/N: Let me tell you this one though…I suck at rhyming. so if I really do do bad, just tell me if the potion or whatever sucks and criticize me all you want. But tell me how the chapter is while you're telling me how bad I did. Thanks!

Chapter 3:

                Leo ran to the bed putting his sandwich and water on the nightstand.

"Piper! Piper, wake up!"

                Piper turned over looking annoyed; her eyes messed up from the mascara that ran from her crying. Leo cringed after seeing her face.

                "What happened to you Piper?" Leo asked softly.

                Piper wiped her eyes smudging the mascara even more. "Nothing. Why did you wake me up?" Piper looked at the clock that stood over their dresser. "Its 12:45 am Leo."

                "At least it isn't 3:00 am like in the movies." Leo replied. Piper rolled her eyes not laughing. Leo dismissed the joke he tried to cheer Piper with. "You remember Greg, Paige's boyfriend?"

                Piper nodded. "Yeah, nice guy."

                "Remember how I told you he looked familiar to me when I first met him?" Leo asked.

                Piper turned onto her side looking at Leo. "Yes I do remember. You said you'd seen him somewhere, but you never recalled ever seeing him here on earth."

                "Guess what?" Leo asked immediately after Piper finished what she was saying.

                "I'm too tired to be guessing Leo. Please just get to the point" Piper moaned.

                "He's a whitelighter." Piper straightened up after instantly hearing Leo.

                "You're serious?"

                "Of course I am! He just told Paige that he was." Leo started to look down while Piper just looked at him questionably.

                "What were you doing listening to Paige and Greg?" Piper asked looking Leo in the eye.

                "I was getting something to eat and while I was going upstairs I heard Greg say that Paige wanted to tell him something so I stayed and listened to what he had to tell him. I knew I'd seen him somewhere. I saw him the day the Elders appointed me as a whitelighter. He told me that I had a hard job ahead of me." Leo's mind began to replay the day of when this happened.

                "Leo…have you said anything to them when you found out?" Piper asked putting a hand on his shoulder.

                "No. I came straight here."

                "Are they still out there?" Piper asked. Leo got up from the bed, but before he could open the door, he heard the screaming of Paige.

                "DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES YOU COULD'VE HELPED ME, PIPER, AND PHOEBE WHEN LEO WASN'T HERE?! DO YOU KNOW HOW DAMN HARD IT WAS FOR ME TO THINK OF LIES AS TO WHY I HAD TO BREAK OUR DATES?!" Paige yelled. She picked up a vase that was behind her.

                "Paige, please don't throw that! Listen to me! I'm sorry, but-" She threw the vase before he could finish his plea. Greg orbed away just as the vase hit the wall. He orbed across the room from Paige. "Stop!" Leo stopped himself from opening the door. He turned to Piper.

                "Does that answer your question Piper?" Leo asked.

                "Whoa." Was all that Piper could say. "I'm going to kill her if she broke the vase that Grams gave mom." Leo opened the door, Greg orbed into their (Piper and Leo's) room.

                "I'm a whitelighter, so don't be surprised." Greg said holding his hands up as if to surrender.

                "We know." Piper grinned at Greg. "Leo stay here, I'll go calm Paige down." Piper walked out the door but Greg stopped her.

                "What about me?"

                "I think you should leave." A door opened from down the hall. Phoebe popped her head out of the door then she stepped fully out to the hallway in her full length silky blue robe.

                "What the hell is going on?" Phoebe asked. Cole came out behind Phoebe in his red boxers and a white T-shirt looking puzzled. Paige looked up seeing everyone looking down on her. She smiled sarcastically.

                "Sorry to wake you all." Paige said while sitting down. Piper sat beside Paige while Phoebe sat on the other side of her. Greg orbed from the Manor lieing to Paige that the Elders were calling him. Leo left with him as well. Cole sat in the chair in front of them listening attentively.

                "So, you both mean to tell me that Greg is a whitelighter?" Phoebe said after Piper explained how she found out and Paige told why she was so mad.

                "Yeah." Piper and Paige answered at the same time. "Wow. Now we have two people in this house that have dated whitelighters." Phoebe said quietly.

                "Three. Mom dated a whitelighter remember? That was how she had Paige." Piper pointed out.

                "So why does it matter if Greg is a whitelighter Paige? All the means to tell us that you are more protected when you go out with him." Phoebe got up off the couch and began to pace in front of it. "If we get into trouble then we have an extra whitelighter to help us. This is good."

                "Phoebe sit down. You're making me dizzy." Cole said.

                "Sorry." Phoebe sat down beside Paige again.

                "Sorry you guys for me yelling. I guess that I was in such shock, that I didn't know what to say so I acted like I was mad at him."

                Cole looked at Paige confusedly. "So you weren't mad at Greg?"

                "Well I was because he didn't tell me, but in sort of a way, I wasn't." Cole looked at Paige even more confused.

                "Women." Cole said quietly in a sarcastic way. Paige heard him but she didn't say anything. "I'm going to the kitchen. Do you girls want anything?" Cole asked as he got up. They all said no, so Cole shrugged his shoulders.

Cole began looking around in the refrigerator when someone tapped shoulder. Cole instantly turned around not seeing anything. Cole called Phoebe's name and asked her where she was, and she told him she was still talking to Paige. Cole dismissed the tap thinking something must've fell on his shoulder. He started to shift the food around looking for good leftovers when he felt the tap again. Cole did the same thing as before, except this time someone was behind him. It was the same demon from earlier that had attacked Phoebe. The man was still dressed in his black clothes except he was wearing black gloves and a long black leather trench coat. Cole could see the bulge of the ring through the glove. Cole slammed the refrigerator door shut, knocking over a small plant that was on the refrigerator, but he caught it with his quick reflexes. He put the plant back up top and pushed the demon out of sight of Paige, Phoebe, and Piper.

                Cole harshly whispered, "What are you doing here?"

                The demon looked at Cole as if he was frightened then he straightened his face to make himself seem bold and dangerous. "I'm here, because now I can be with you. Isn't that what you want?"

                Cole shoved the demon against the wall and held him there by his throat then he looked at the demon testily. "Really, why have you come back?"

                "The reason I just gave you." The demon managed to say through his shallow breathing. "I'm more powerful now. Not as shameful as I was when you were a mere child and more powerful than me.

                Cole eased his chokehold but he didn't let go. "But why do you want to join my side now if you're as powerful as before? Why don't you wreak your own mess?"

                "Remember? You always thought me as weak only because I was human. You wanted me to help you become the best, Belthazaar, but I couldn't because I knew nothing of what you could do. You hid your true power from me; I only knew what you showed. Don't tell me you've forgotten." The demon responded. Cole let go of the demon's throat, backing away from him but not back enough to the door frame.

                "I'm not the same person anymore." Cole whispered, his eyes focusing on the demon's movement. "I don't do what I used to do."

                "Tell me Belthazaar-" The demon was interrupted by Cole.

                "Cole. Call me Cole."

                "I do what you want me to…Cole. What are you doing in the Charmed ones' house? Planning to still the Book of Shadows I presume?" The demon asked. Cole turned around, but he noticed that Piper was standing at the door with her arms crossed. She unfolded them, then she froze Cole and the demon, but she went up to Cole and unfroze him.

A/N: Chpt.4 should be here soon!
