A/N: This chapter is Leo's PoV. It's pretty diary-esque. Hope you like it :) Thanks to everyone

who reviewed!! Sorry it took me so long to get the next part up...feel free to flame me for my

tardiness.

Six years. That's how long it's been since I'd held the love of my life, Piper Halliwell. I

died six years ago in a fire, that's when I was made a whitelighter. It's a kind of guardian angel for

good witches. Several times I've thought about making contact with Piper but it's forbidden. I'll

get my wings clipped, I just have to hope that I'll run into her when I get my first charge.

I've been in training for the better part of five years now and I'll be getting my first charges

in the coming days. The Elders (my bosses) won't tell me who they are, I have to sense them on

my own. All I know is they are a set of sisters, the most powerful witches to ever fight for the

side of good. When I heard there were three, my heart skipped a beat. Piper was one of three

sisters, but then I remembered she wasn't a witch. I've been sitting in my chambers now for a few

hours, trying to sense them, but it hasn't worked. I've just been thinking about Piper and the day I

asked her to be my girlfriend.

.....FLASHBACK....

An 11 year old Piper and 12 year old Leo walked along Prescott Street on a sunny

afternoon. They had just finished their first week of the new school year and were walking home

together from the bus stop. "So, remember Patrick Westcott? I introduced him to you over the

summer." asked Leo.

"Vaguely, why?" replied Piper

"Well, he asked out Kelly Sintall today."

"Oh, Kelly! That's so great!! She's such a nice girl, they'll make a really cute couple."

"I think so too. Well, Patrick is the third friend of mine to have a girlfriend. Do any of your

friends have boyfriends?"

"One or two. Why?"

"Well..." Leo started fumbling for words, they were in front of Piper's house which meant he had

to leave her. His house was only two doors down, but he wanted to stay and talk to Piper some

more. "Well, it's just that um..."

"Leo, what is it? We've known each other for like ever, you can tell me anything"

"That's just it Piper. You're my best friend and with all my friends getting girlfriends, it's made me

think of you in a different way. What I'm trying to say is, I'd like to...well, I think it'd be fun if

umm...you were my girlfriend. What do you say?"

"Oh Leo! I'd love to! This is going to be so great. I have to go tell Prue, she'll be thrilled for

me." Leo was a little hurt that the first thing Piper thought of was her sister, Prue.

"Oh okay, I guess I'll see you tomorrow morning then."

"Unless you want to come inside and watch some t.v. with me"

"I'd love to." Leo replied, taking Piper's hand in his and walking up the stairs to his new

girlfriend's house.

....END FLASHBACK...

That had been almost 15 years ago. It started out as an innocent relationship, all my

friends had girlfriends and I wanted to fit in. Piper was the only girl I knew so I asked her out.

None of my friends lasted for more than two weeks, but Piper and I lasted for 6 years. Until I left

her.

This is useless, I'm beginning to think I'll never sense my charges. I've been at it for

almost six hours and nothing. Not even a hint of one of them. This is harder than I thought.

Wait! I'm getting something. It's sadness, one of my charges is sad! That shouldn't be a good

thing, should it? I'm just so excited that I can sense one of them, I thought the Elders made a

mistake, that I wasn't cut out for all this.

Now that I know how to contact her, I have to think of an excuse to watch over her.

They're all new to the Craft and I have to keep my true identity hidden. It sounds so glamorous,

like Superman and Clark Kent or something. It's really not though, just nervewracking. I know

what I'll do. I can put up signs around their neighborhood advertising something. Home repairs,

I was always good with a hammer.

TWO DAYS LATER.....

Okay, I made about 30 flyers advertising my business. Hopefully they need some work

done around the house. Three sisters living alone, they can't be very handy. My only problem

was how to contact me. I eventually set up a fake e-mail address they can contact me through.

The e-mail is Leo@upthere.com. The e-mail actually triggers my power to sense my charges. It's

kind of like mail forwarding. Now I just have to orb onto their block successfully. Wish me luck!



AN HOUR LATER.....

I just got back from hanging up the flyers and guess what, my charge just happens to live

in the same neighborhood as Piper! I think it's too much of a coincidence though, I'll have to talk

to my mentor, Gideon, about it. Oh, here he comes.

"Hello Leo. Just get back from work did you?" Gideon asks.

"Yes. I think there's a bit of a problem with my new charges though."

"Don't tell me. You're afraid it's too much to take on, these three super powerful witches as

your first charges? Don't worry Leo, I know you can handle it."

"No, it's not that. It's just-"

"Listen, don't complain about this assignment. You're lucky enough to have charges, most

whitelighters train for over 10 years, you were done in under 6. If you tell the bosses you need a

new charge, they'll probably clip your wings."

"Okay. Thank you Sir-"

"I told you, you're no longer my trainee, call me Gideon now."

"Oh, sorry Gideon."

"Well, I'll leave you with your work." And he left. Don't get me wrong, Gideon was a great

mentor, it was just so difficult to have a conversation with him. He never let you finish a

sentence. I don't want my wings clipped so I guess I'll have to take the chance.

I hear my charges! They need some work done on their house. A lot actually, it seems

they live in an old Victorian Manor (I already knew that from hanging the flyers up) and they're in

the process of restoring it. Their address is the same as Piper's! It can't be...can it? Can Piper

and her sisters really be the all powerful Charmed Ones? They must have received their powers

recently, Piper would have told me. I'll have to glamour into a regular old handyman to get past

them though. This is going to be even harder than I thought. I'll just have to wait for another

new whitelighter to get out of training so I can switch charges with him. That might not be for

another year or two though. I just hope I'll be able to keep up my glamour that long.

I'm just going to have to avoid Piper. You have no idea how difficult this is going to be.
