Future Imperfect goes in for another round - 3 times the silly ness
Disclaimer: I own the words I type, but I don't own the Charmed Ones or the TV show, and contrary to what some of the reviewers seem to think, I don't own Drew Fuller and I don't believe in making guys your slaves. In fact personally I don't even know the guy. Sorry girls.
Last time on Future Imperfect
"Thanks Leo." Piper chorused- with herself.
"Okay was that creepy for anyone else?" Phoebe asked putting her arms up.
Prue nodded preoccupied. She was more concerned now that it seemed like Chris their whitelighter from the future hadn't even really known who she was.
In the kitchen…
Pregnant Piper was drinking some chamomile tea that her past counterpart had made for her.
Chris was discussing spells that could return them to the future, while dodging questions about the future.
"So am I married in the future?" Prue probed.
"How should I know?"
"But you said you're the charmed ones Whitelighter, why wouldn't you?!" Prue argued.
"Look, I'm not going to tell you anything."
"Am I even IN the future?" Prue said annoyed.
"Don't be ridiculous Prue! If the charmed ones exist in the future then so do you." Past Piper said logically.
Phoebe played around writing possible spells for their return.
Out of time
Out of space,
Return us to our proper place.
No… that rhymed too much and didn't seem complicated enough to send them back.
Her mind wandered. So Cole and I have a child. Our Visitors must be from at least 3-5 years into the future. I wonder what she looks like? She really can't be evil. I'm a good witch, that's got to show in my children right?
Leo was studying the future Piper and Chris. It didn't make sense. Why would he ever leave Piper? He just couldn't imagine doing it. From the way Piper had reacted when he had asked about it, it couldn't be because they had fought, or that she had wanted him to leave. Pregnant Piper was looking at him with a sad expression on her face. Had he died? Killed by a Darklighter? He couldn't get married to Piper knowing that in a few years (future piper wasn't that much older looking) he would end of leaving her, pregnant. He had to talk to her. He nodded at her gesturing towards the living room. She wandered out. He followed her.
"Come on Chris tell her she's in the future." Piper said annoyed, if he'd just say that then they'd stop arguing.
"Uh…" Chris said looking around for help. "Phoebe! So how is that spell coming along?" He acted very interested in what she was writing.
"It's not long enough."
"Really, that's very interesting." Chris was pointedly ignoring Piper and Prue.
~~
Leo and Future Piper sat on a couch.
"You wanted to talk?"
"Piper, I can't imagine ever leaving you-"
"You didn't want to."
"Did I die?" He asked quietly.
"No." How could she tell him he became an Elder? If she told him, would it make him distance himself from her?
Leo looked distract, she had to tell him something that would help.
"Even now, almost a year since you left us, I don't regret having married you." Piper said. "I have to hope that someday it will work out."
How could she not regret it? He could sense her loneliness and pain from here.
"Chris hates me."
"No, he just resents the future you for leaving me." Piper said.
That made sense, no Whitelighter liked to see one of his charges in pain. And I will be the one to cause it. He shook his head.
"How can I get married to, well you, knowing that I'm going to be causing you this much pain?" Leo asked worried.
She took his hand and put her other one on her stomach.
"This is our second child, Leo-"
Leo's eyes widened. "That's even worse! I leave you alone pregnant, and abandon our first daughter?" (they thought Piper was going to have a daughter then) "How can you still-"
"I hated you for a while for it, but I came to know that you were the only man I could ever love. I tried dating around afterward, to try and forget you, but it never worked." Piper said looking at the floor.
Leo wrapped his arms around her. "Oh Piper."
Past Piper stood in the hallway, trying not to be jealous of her fiancée holding onto another woman. After all the other woman was technically her. Her future self which was somehow abandoned by said fiancée. How did that work?
Meanwhile in the kitchen Phoebe was trying out a spell
We don't know how
To get our sister home
So we ask the Halliwell power
Bring to us across the times
Out of space
Out of time
A source of good to bring them home
**POOF**
Blue light shined down and a redhead fell.
"Woah!" the new girl said looking around.
"Paige!?" Chris said surprised.

HA HA HA cliffhanger. Sorry about the serious part in the middle but I had to show the piper/leo love. Although taunting Leo is kinda fun. L
