Disclaimer: How many times have I said this before? I must've already said
it five times in this story and all those other times in every fic I've
written, but I might as well say it again. I do not own Charmed.
Unfortunately the WB and Spelling do...*evil glare, 'Damn you Spelling and
Kern, Piper and Leo should never have broken up!'*
Ok, Thanks to everyone who reviewed. And on with the story. Just a warning I got a lil' bit hyper writing that Thank-yous from reading your reviews- It's all your fault Gryffindor620; don't look so innocent! FYI, this doesn't affect the story, cuz I wrote this chap ages ago, it just affects the Thank-yous.
Gryffindor620: You reviewed so quickly-I was surprised-I musta left you hungry for more. Grams does so rule doesn't she! Everybody put on 50 cent 'In da Club' and join in the song: Go Grams, it's your birthday, we gonna party like its your birthday, sip Bacardi (sp?) like its your birthday. *gets some VERY worried looks 'What?! I'm usually like that, you obviously don't realise that when you read my fics, you get to see into my little world'* Oh yeah, Piper and Leo are going to L.A. I just wish I was Piper (if you know what I mean). You have a happy dance? Cool!
Charmed Love: Oh, wow! I loved your review! I'm so glad you love the story so far, I love it too-I have so much passion for writing especially this fic. I don't think you reviewed it, it doesn't say you did on the review page, but nvm, it's the thought that counts. And thank you soooo much for saying I'm a really great writer (did you know just what to say to make me happy or was that just chance?) it means a lot, because I love to write (Piper/Leo fluffy stuff is the best to write) and to know that someone thinks I'm a good writer make me really happy. I'm glad you think I wrote Grams just right and that she gave the impression I wanted her to give, it's just hard to write her in, because she's kind of um...dead in the show! I think everyone loves anything with Piper/Leo fluffiness in it, I know I do it. *Everybody raise you r hand if you love the Piper/Leo fluffiness of either this fic or all Piper/Leo fics...*counts* Yup, dat's everyone I think...* And if you like Piper Leo fluff you are so gonna love this fic, possibly the other two in the series that I'm planning, although you might kill me when you read the very emotional last chapter (which is a masterpiece, if I do say so myself); this fic is all Piper/Leo fluffy stuff- I haven't written any chapters without even a tiny bit of fluff, I don't think...
Anonymous: I was just wondering is your name actually anonymous? Because I really do like to know who's reviewing-so if you just put your pen name in...anyway why don't you sign in, it only takes all of two seconds! What I was going to say was I'm glad your impressed and thank you for the review.
Piperlover/Leo: Glad you thought it was great, here's that update.
ChArMeD-101: No, not a whole night together, they'll be spending 14 nights together!!! I'm so jealous of Piper right now... I think we all know what will happen during those nights(.
BeAuTy AnGeL: So glad you love it. And both this and the next chapter cover the trip.
Nakita: You liked Grams seeing the kiss-I thought she'd just have to see it, then they can be all embarrassed. I'm so evil-I hate it when people stop writing at the really good bits, so I'm sorry-but it's all part of my massive evil plan (it is massive, but it's actually a bit more fluffy than evil). I'm sure they would have rebelled too-they never can stay apart for too long *stares upwards...* Somehow I don't think that THEY (evil people who split Piper and Leo up) got that-but I'm rooting for Piper and Leo, they just HAVE to get back together, properly(i.e. Not a freakin' one night stand!).
Baylea: You thought it was wonderful? Wow-thanks. And you thought it ended on a cliffie? Hmmmm....I didn't think so, but this chapter does.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A couple of weeks later, I had met Leo's parents and they were actually really nice. All we had to do now was get on that plane. We had planned to turn up separately. I was telling everyone how much I'd miss them when I saw Leo and his parents walking around obviously looking for us.
"LEO!!! Over here." I yelled out to him. He smiled and waved letting me know that he'd heard me.
"Hey gorgeous!" Leo whispered as he wrapped his arms round my waist.
"Hey you. You ready to go?" I asked him.
"Yup I'll just say goodbye to my parents." Leo went back to his parents as I had a big group hug with Grams and my sisters; Prue, Phoebe and Paige.
"Paige, don't let Prue and Phoebe fight to much ok." Paige smiled, whilst Phoebe and Prue both glared at me.
"What? You do fight quite a bit, and it's usually me who's stuck in the middle, so don't give Paige a hard time with all your bickering."
"We don't fight!" Both Phoebe and Prue said.
"Uhhh...actually you do" Paige said butting in.
"Anyway we gotta go soon and I'm gonna miss you guys so much."
"We gonna miss you too sis, but don't worry about us and have some fun!" Prue said hugging me again. Prue was not only my older sister but my best friend.
"Ok, I'll have fun. I'll call you when we get there. I love you all." I yelled too them as I went off with Leo to board the plane.
*********
The plane journey wasn't very long and we were soon in L.A. It was the start of two amazing weeks. Two weeks that I haven't forgotten yet, nor will I ever forget. I'm not a very big fan of aeroplanes, but just having Leo there sitting next to me was enough to calm me down a little bit.
When we got off the plane we had that hard task of finding our bags, luckily our bags were quite easy to spot so we beat the rush to the car hire centre. A while later we arrived at a nice looking hotel not to far from Newport Beach. When we found the hotel room, Leo opened the door and then carried me through the threshold.
"So, Piper, I'm all yours for the next two weeks, what do you want to do first?"
"I don't know Leo, what do you want to do."
"Hmm...how about this?" Leo said kissing me passionately.
"Well, it's a start and a pretty good one too!" I said with a smile dancing across my face. He kissed me again, each kiss grew deeper and more passionate, we quickly moved our make-out session to the bed, taking full advantage of the fact that we had a room to ourselves for two weeks without any sister's or other relatives running in on us.
"You sure you want to do this, babe?" Leo asked me softly. He knew that this would be my first time; he also knew that he was my first in many other things...
"Yes, Leo I'm sure-and there's nowhere or no-one I'd rather be with." I said pulling Leo down on top of me. And let's just say we had a great time!
We stayed in the hotel for the rest of the day and some of the next. When we did finally manage to get out of bed we decided to explore the hotel.
"This is a great hotel, Leo, how could you afford all this?" I asked as we made our way back to our room.
"Let's just say I have my ways." He whispered into my ear.
"That you do..." I said turning around and kissing him, "What do you say we go find that beach?"
"Well...I was thinking..." Leo replied with a devious look.
"Leo, there's plenty of time for that later!" I said lightly hitting his arm.
So with that we headed down to the beach and stayed there till after sunset. Sunset on the beach lying in the arms of the man you love, is amazing, there's nothing more beautiful and I wished that it wouldn't be the only time we did this kind of thing.
The next day I awoke to find Leo staring at me.
"Hey beautiful." Leo said as I slowly came too.
"Hey yourself, what're we doing today?" I asked as Leo kissed me.
Leo continued to stare at me and not answer my question. I waved my hand in front of his face as he blinked.
"Huh, what?"
"Leo, you weren't paying any attention were you? What were you thinking about?"
"Sorry, I wasn't. It's just...do you know how beautiful you are?"
"No, why?"
"Because that's what I was thinking about. I don't mean to switch off, but sometimes I'll just look at you and...you're just too beautiful!"
"Thank you, I think, I'll take that as a compliment."
"Yeah, if you want to, it just your beauty makes it hard for me to concentrate."
"I'm sorry; would it help if I looked less beautiful?"
"Maybe, but I like you just the way you are, I mean that. What was it you were saying earlier?" Leo said as he played with my hair.
"I was just asking what we're doing today." I said smiling.
"Well it's totally up to you, but we could check out Hollywood, and be all touristy."
"That's a good idea; you say that like it's a bad thing though. What's wrong with being touristy?"
"Nothing, it's just weird, I mean I grew up here, in L.A, and I never really did the tourist thing."
"You never told me you grew up in L.A, why not?"
"I dunno, you never asked and we haven't lived here since I was 14, so when you asked me where I moved from I said San Diego, and it was true, I just grew up here." Leo said smiling. So maybe it is true, you do learn something new everyday.
But what I'd found out, was nothing compared to what I'd be finding out later on, I don't think anything could have prepared me for it. I really thought I knew Leo, but there were still things I found out about him everyday.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I was going to write more in this chapter, but I thought I'd leave this one short as I had a fairly good stopping point. So what is it that Leo's hiding? And how many skeletons are there in his closest? The next chapter will be longer, if not then this'll just be part one of the chapter, I'm undecided right now.
Wow, no rambling...yet! Anyway please review.
Okay I actually feel the need to ramble so, I think this fic is amazing so I hope everyone of you loves it, but I will take constructive criticism (Thank god, for Spellcheck, because my spelling is really off today). Anyway there's just a couple of chapters at the end that I am having trouble with, but they are slowly unravelling in my mind, so I'll have it all figured out when I get back from France. And because I'm going of to France at 4.A.M (I hate the school for that, but nvm because we'll all go hyper on lack of sleep, its funny-we don't need the drink to get drunk, at least I don't) I', giving you faithful reviewers a double update and I will update again, hopefully on the 26th or at the weekend. And so once again I am really, really sorry that I can't update for over a week....but I'm sure you'll all be able to survive.
