Woo-hoo

And you know I'm yours

Woo-hoo

And you know you're mine

Woo-hoo

And that's for all of time

"Leo, come on, stop playing with the straws and tell me how many of them there are." Piper ordered.

"In this box, 200." Leo replied, knocking down the wall he'd built out of the small red straws he was supposed to be counting.

Piper had convinced him to use his day off to help her with P3's inventory, but so far he wasn't being much of a help.

"Is it time for a lunchbreak yet?" he asked, slipping his arms around her waist.

"Is that all you ever think about?" she sighed.

"Well, it's too early to think about dinner," he joked.

She hit him playfully. "We'll go when Rachel and Trey get back. Now start counting, there's at least twelve other boxes back there."

Leo grabbed another box from the back room, setting the one he was finished with aside, and resumed counting. A few minutes passed, when suddenly he heard Piper laugh.

"What?" he asked, looking up.

She shook her head, unsuccessfully trying to bite back a smile. "Nothing."

"What?" he repeated.

"You just look so cute when you're deep in concentration," she told him.

He stood up straight, pulling her close to him. "Is that a funny kind of cute, or a sexy kind of cute?"

"Well, that depends," she replied, leaning against him.

"On what?"

"On how long it takes us to finish this," she answered. With a teasing smile, she turned around, kissed him, then pushed him back toward the straws. He went back to counting them, pretending to pout.

A while later, Rachel and Trey came back from their lunch break, so as Piper had promised, she and Leo took theirs. Instead of going out to lunch, however, they went back to his apartment to eat.

"What do you want?" she asked, rummaging around his refrigerator. Ironically, she knew his kitchen better than he did.

"You," he replied, coming up behind her and kissing her ear.

"Very funny," she said, playing with his fingers. "What do you want to eat?"

He shrugged, and she rolled her eyes. "You've got to eat something. You're the one who couldn't wait to get on break."

Though they were standing front-to-back and couldn't see each other's faces, they wore identical expressions. Both knew that food hadn't been his motive. Slowly, Piper shut the refrigerator door and turned around. She looked up, her big, brown eyes staring into his blue ones. Putting her arms around his neck, she reached up and kissed him. It grew more intense, until her back was against the refrigerator. He took a step back, making sure she moved with him, and, pressed together this way, they made their way into the bedroom.
