Halliwell Destinies

Chapter 15

Pierce wandered into the Halliwell manor and looked into the sitting room to find one person sitting there, Chris. He had his head in his hands and Pierce could feel the tension in the house. She saw Leo in the kitchen paceing with Piper and Phoebe leaning against the counter.

"Whats going on?" Pierce asked Chris whose head shot up the moment she said anything.

He saw her and immediatly jumped off of the sofa and wrapped his arms around her small waist. He pressed his face into her long hair that probably didnt smell reatively good at that moment. But he kept holding onto her. She pulled herself back to look up at him.

"I'm sorry, I screwed up and I'm sorry." Chris said softly, it was rare to hear this ego maniac apoloize.

"Chris, you didnt screw up. Well maybe a little." Pierce said with a soft smile.

"You're so beautiful." Chris said planting a passionate kiss on Pierce.

"Mmmmm." Pierce let Chris kiss her.

"When Leo said you were hurt but he couldnt place you I couldnt help but get worried. More then worried.The only time we couldnt locate a charge would be if they were in the underworld or dead." Chris said looking down at Pierce. "It made me think about something i have been wanting to do for a long time, if you walked back through that door i swore i was going to do it."

Chris kneeled on the ground and produced a small box. Chris opened the box and looked up at Pierce who had both of her hands up and covering her face with her hands.

"Pierce Halliwell, will you marry me?" Chris said his sexy voice making the words even better then they would have been.

Pierce nodded hard as Chris took the 14k white gold ring out of the box and slipped it on Pierce's finger he stood up and she jumped on him literall he lifted her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist and kissed him over and over.

"She said yes!" Phoebe yelled.

"What did you think she was going to say? No?" Cole asked with a smile.

Chris put Pierce on the ground but they kept kissing.

"Get a room!" Paige said laughing.

"Why dont we ever do that anymore?" Leo asked Piper.

"Wait, whats going on!" Indy said coming down the stairs with Kent and CeCe on her tail.

Pierce groaned and pressed her face into Chris's chest as if that would make them go away.

"Chris just asked Pierce to marry him." Paige said with a smile.

"I helped him." Phoebe beamed.

"What? Christopher!" CeCe said giggling.

"CeCe," Pierce spun around to face her. "Dont flirt with my fiancee or i will have to kick you out of my house and i mean it CeCe dont think you can get away with that here."

"And we will back her up." Paige said putting her hands on her hips.

"Fine, we will leave. We only came to make a point anyways." Kent said with a sneer. "Patrick, or father, left you half of his whole estate. Everything, if you claim it we will sue you and this Nate Jacobs kid."

"We didnt spend years pretending to be good and loving to end up getting nothing from him. Mommy left everything to him, so that means all of our stuff would go to you too!" CeCe hissed.

Piper looked at Pierce icrediously. Pierce wasnt at all surprised about them coming all this way to say something like that. She was surprised that half of the estate had been left to her and the other to someone else she didnt know.

After a good few hours of CeCe and Indy complaining and making a huge scene about will the they left. Pierce's first move was to the phone. She lifted the cordless and dialed the number she had memorized of her attorney.

"Bill Jenkins, please." Pierce said after a cheerful ringing voice picked up on the other end.

"Pierce Halliwell i was making a point to call you soon." Bill Jenkins attorney at law said over the phone.

"Bill, is it true that I got half of Patricks estate?" Pierce jumped right into the conversation.

"Pierce, can I make an appointment with you?" Bill Jenkins said obviously uncomfortable.

"Yeah, when?" Pierce said pacing the room.

"Tuesday? At 4, I am having Nate Jacobs at that time too." He said.

"Yeah, who is this guy anyway?" Pierce asked she hadnt stoppped pacing yet.

"You dont know?" He asked hesitantly.

"Oh lord, your joking right? More family secrets!" Pierce cried slamming her foot down on the tile floor, it cracked under her foot.

"Pierce I'm sorry." Jenkins said.

"Where? Where does he live? I need some freaking answers Bill." Pierce said striding to find a pen and paper.

Pierce pulled into an apartment building that she thought looked way to nice for a 20 something year old writer. Nate Jacobs was said to live in apartment 12 and Pierce hopped the steps two at a time, she needed to get this out of the way and the only way to do that was to get some answers from this guy. She knocked on the door loudly, she was still fuming from her conversation with Jenkins when the door opened revealing a handsom young man with dark brown hair and bright blue eyes. He was close to 6'3 and built like a soilder. His pearly white teeth contrasted with his tan skin as a grin spread across his face.

"Pierce Halliwell?" He said.

"Nate Jacobs?" Pierce asked with a smile.

"In the flesh." He said extended his arm through the open door to a finely furnished living room.

"I thought you where a writer." Pierce said walking into the living room.

"For the National Enquirer." He said sliding behind a bar and raising a glass to her.

"No thanks, I dont have a lot of time." Pierce said she kept her long black jacket on.

"Your here to know what is going on arent you?" Nate said when he saw the look on her face he nodded. "I was adopted when I was just a baby. Come to find with my adolesence I got a little more then pimples and weird voice changing. Ontop of that i recived the power to hide from bullys and to be able to dissappear in a rush of lights when I was scared. My search to find out what was going on always left me to the name Halliwell and when I met a beautiful woman named Pierce Halliwell when I had to run a peice on a special case of a local celebrity's death. I knew it then, something happened when i met you. Something clicked. I found our father and he told me the honest truth although you were yet to find out and by the look on your face you arent surprised."

"No, hardly." Pierce said leaning on her left leg.

"Well, he told me the truth which led me to a home in Texas with a mother I never knew. Then recently I found out that apparently he left us everything." Nate said coming around the bar with a rum and coke in his hand. "I thought it necessary to come clean so I made sure that Mr. Jenkins made it possible for you to be at the meeting. But you came here, and if we are what they say then I knew you would."

"What do they say we are?" Pierce asked leaning her head to the side.

"By the way," He said leaning against the bar. "Happy birthday, tomorow."

"How did you know that?" Pierce asked raising an eyebrow.

"Lucky guess because so is mine. 1978?" Nate said pressing his lips together.

"Twins." Pierce muttered.

"Should have guessed. It can always get weirder, cant it?" He said with a smile.

"Always." Pierce said sitting down on his sofa and cradling her head in her hands.
