A/N: Thank you all for my great reviews! I know the first chapter was kinda short, but this should be a long one. This story's only gonna have a few chapters, I think, but I'll try to make them long. Also, look for more chapters to my other fics!
Chapter 2 I Don't Get Premonitions
"Well, it sounds like it's just a bad dream. I mean, you're pregnant. You're bound to have some strange dreams," Leo said the next day. He and Piper were sitting on Piper's bed in Magic School.
"Yes, but not this kind of dream. This was more like...an omen," Piper said.
"Yeah, but like you said, you weren't sure," Leo said.
"Well, all I know is that I had a headache afterwards. It really hurt," Piper said. "Does Phoebe normally get headaches from her premonitions? No way. It can't be a premonition. I don't get premonitions."
"I don't think so," Leo said. "But again, the headaches are a normal pregnancy thing."
"Well, I was wondering if you could stick around for awhile and help me watch Wyatt. If someone evil is after him and powerful enough to get into Magic School, Wyatt's going to need lots of protection," Piper said.
"Of course," Leo said. Piper walked over to Wyatt's bed and was about to pick him up when her head began to hurt again. She cried out and fell to the floor.
"Piper!" Leo said, rushing over to help her. Piper clutched her head in pain as the same images from her dream flashed through her mind. The demon stealing the baby, the energy ball, the symbol on his arm, everything. Except, Piper got a good look at the baby. It wasn't Wyatt. Looking at herself in the vision, she could see that she was no longer pregnant. Then, the premonition was gone.
"Piper, are you alright?" Leo asked, alarmed. Piper looked at him and through her arms around him in a tight hug. She began to cry.
"It's okay," Leo said consolingly as he held her.
"No, it's not. Someone's after Chris. It's not Wyatt. It's Chris," Piper said. "Those were definitely premonitions. They hurt so bad."
"We're going to figure out who it is. I promise you that," Leo said.
"I need to lay down. My head is killing me," Piper said. Leo helped her up and to the bed. She lay down, still holding her head.
"God, I will certainly appreciate Phoebe more. This is just horrible," Piper said. "Okay. I'm feeling a little better now. Orb me home. I need to look in the Book of Shadows."
"Piper, you really need to rest," Leo said.
"No. You need to orb me home now," Piper said, picking up Wyatt. Leo took her hand and they orbed out.
They reappeared in the attic and Piper fell into a chair.
"Are you okay?" Leo asked, holding her steady.
"I'm fine," Piper said, heading over to the Book. She flipped through quickly.
"What're you looking for?" Leo asked.
"Something from my premonition," Piper said. She stopped turning pages and clutched her head in pain. She groaned and fell into a chair again.
"Oh no," Leo said. Piper saw the same images again. The demon, the baby, the symbol on the demon's arm, but this time something new was added. Piper caught a glimpse of the clock in her room. It was six o'clock. AM or PM and what day was what Piper still didn't know. The pain subsided slowly and Piper found herself staring up at Leo again.
"Another premonition," she said. "It happens at six o'clock."
"What?" Leo asked.
"I learn something new from each premonition. First I learned about the whole demonic threat, then that it was Chris, not Wyatt, and now I just learned that it happens at a six o'clock sometime," Piper said.
"That's not a whole lot to go on," Leo said. "Sorry."
Piper remained silent and didn't move.
"Another one?" Leo asked. Piper shook her head.
"My water just broke," she said. Leo's eyes went wide.

"Are you comfortable?" Leo asked after Piper had gotten settled in to her bed back at Magic School.
"As comfortable as I'm going to get," Piper said. "Are you staying?"
"Of course," Leo said, brushing a strand of hair from Piper's face.
"What if they call you?" Piper asked.
"Screw them," Leo said. "I'm staying. They can't do a damn thing about it."
Piper smiled up at him and began to toy with her charm bracelet. She took it off and held it up.
"Look familiar?" she asked Leo. "I don't think I ever thanked you. Thank you so very much for this."
"You're welcome," Leo said. "Glad I could find it. It was difficult to find."
"How did you find it? I looked for years," Piper said.
"I had a little help," Leo said, looking heavenward. Piper immediately knew whom he was referring to. She smiled up at the heavens and then at Leo.
"So, my sisters are watching Wyatt?" Piper asked. "I don't know if my next premonition will involve Wyatt too."
"He's fine. I promise," Leo said.
"Good," Piper said. She and Leo talked about how things had been lately until the time came to deliver the baby. The nurses came in and set up for the delivery. Leo held Piper's hand the whole time and helped her through it.
"Okay Piper. Big push," the nurse said. Piper was trying hard by then and was about to push her final push when she was struck by another premonition. She cried out and clutched her head with her free hand.
"Piper, what's wrong?" the nurse asked. Piper's head was now pounding as the images flooded through again. She saw the demon, Chris, the clock, the symbol on the demon's arm, the energy ball, everything, but this time, Piper got a glimpse at the calendar. The date was May 24th. A week from that Thursday. A week and two days.
"Piper, one last push!" the nurse said. The headache subsided and Piper was able to push the final push. Blue light shined down on them as Chris came into the world.
"You did it," Leo said, kissing Piper's hand. She was crying by now. The nurse cleaned off the baby and handed him to Piper.
"Here you go, Mommy," the nurse said. She and the other nurses left Piper and Leo to be with their baby.
"Oh," Piper said breathlessly. "He's beautiful."
"Yeah he is," Leo said. Baby Chris reached his little hand out to Leo. Leo took it and gently shook hands with his new son.
"I had another premonition, Leo. It happens a week from Thursday," Piper said between tears. She looked back at her son. "We won't let anyone hurt you."
