Hello everyone! Wow, it's been a long time, for which, I am SO sorry. The two months have just been so hectic with school ending and finals and I had all these big projects to do and ah, it was crazy. But, it's over! I had my last day last week, so now I'm free to write whenever I want! Sort of. Even with any time I had though, I've had the worst case of writers block, ever. It's so hard because I know exactly where I wanted this chapter to go, but I don't know what I want to happen, or how I want it to happen, if that makes sense. I just feel like all I want to do is forget everything and write a romantic love scene, but I can't. Not yet. At this point, I'm thinking this story will be about 16 chapters, give or take one or two. So, I'm going to take a stab at writing it right now...so here goes nothing...keep in mind it's like 1 in the morning and I've gotten zero sleep this week.
Chub: LoL. That must have been confusing, having not seen Wicca Envy...although, I must admit I would have been confused even WITH seeing it!
Rt: I know! I can't wait for fluff either. sighs Next. Chapter.
Sci Fi Fan Gillian: Thanks a bunches! (
Charmed Amber: So, last I heard you were up to Legend of Sleepy... the finale has aired for you, right?? Haha, I'm like a month too late. Anyway, now you've gotta wait for the premiere longer, so it's fair again. You wanted Piper and Leo, soon, I promise, sooner than you think.
Piper(and, since this site is being mean)Leo4eva: haha. Please do, let me in on your plans, I'll be glad to help with any sabotaging you need. I'll do the grunt work. Anything to get these two back together. I think they will though, soon...Glad you like A/u's as this is one, for now...
Piper xox Leo: Did you change your name from Chramedobsessi or something along those lines, b/c that reviews no longer there, and I think it's you?? Just curious. I'm sorry I left you all off on a boring note with that chapter but I'm back!! You're other reviews got to be one of my favorites though. "i luv this story soo very much, and i want to cry when i see u haven't updated" Very sweet, I thank you! Lol.
Holly: Sorry it's been a while, but I'll be posting more regularly from now on, now that school's done!
Chapter 11-"Dream Man"
A hazy fog lifted and footprints began to appear in front of Piper. Curious as to whom the owner was, she followed them a long distance, pushing away the thick air as she moved forward. She couldn't see anything but a glow a little higher than herself that she couldn't quite reach.
She tried calling out to gain the glows attention, but suddenly realized she didn't know it's name, or if it was even a human.
"Hello! Hellooo..." Piper shouted, very annoyed and confused at this point, and began to pick up speed as she tried to catch up with whatever it was that was moving so rapidly.
"Is anybody there?" She moved faster and faster until finally she came to an abrupt stop. Looking around, she realized she was standing at the edge of something, a cloud? A cliff? What, she wasn't sure. All she knew was whatever she had been following had fallen straight off it. She quickly turned around expecting to run back the other direction, to find some help, but without any movement, she felt all control of her body leave her. She moved forward and with the swirl of fog, she fell further and further down into...Nothing."HAAUWH" Piper gasped for air as her body jolted from its restless sleep. As she opened her eyes she swore she saw that same flash of yellow light, but dismissed it.
"Okay, Piper. It was just a dream, that's all. You're fine," She told herself, her voice growing in panic, "but what if everything's not fine and something who pushed me off or it was..." Her voice was cut off by Phoebe and Prue peeking their heads through the door into her room.
"Honey? Piper, are you okay? We heard to cry out. It sounded like someone was trying to hurt you." Phoebe said concerned.
Her sisters walked in and sat themselves down near Piper on her bed. "No, no, nothing like that, I just had a dream."
"Oh thank god, you scared me half the death Piper!" Prue hugged her tightly.
"Sorry, but Prue, I can't exactly be responsible for what I do when I'm, oh I don't know, unconscious!"
"Okay, Okay. What was your dream about?" Prue changed the subject.
"Well, I was walking through these clouds almost and I saw this ray of light, shining directly in front of me and I kept fo..."
"Piper, now, don't take this the wrong way, but you're dreams tend to be really drawn out and detailed and it's," Phoebe interrupted her while glancing at the clock, "3:28 in the morning."
"Phoebe..." Prue scolded sarcastically.
"Look, I'm sorry, I just have had a very rough week."
"And by rough you mean..." Prue asked jokingly.
"So I've had a lot of dates. Sue me. A girl's gotta get out, you should both try it more often. But okay, I'm sorry honey, you have my attention. Tell me about your dream." Phoebe pushed, as she scooted higher onto the bed and lied herself down next to Piper who sat alert in bed.
"Right. So, I was following this, thing, and after a while the wind picked up and whatever it was fell off this, big, ledge or something and I felt myself lose control of my body and I started to fall too."
"So, you followed a thing and fell of a cliff. Sounds like you just need a good night sleep to me." Phoebe offered.
"You're right, you guys go ahead, I'll be fine. Thank you for being worried, I never get tired of it." Said a smiling Piper.
Phoebe bent over and kissed Piper on the head, "Are you sure sweetie?"
"Couldn't be more positive."
"Okay, love you Pipe," She said as she exited the bedroom, "Prue, you coming?"
"I think I'm gunna just stay here for a while, if that's okay with you Piper?" Prue answered worriedly.
"I'm a big girl, it's all right, go to sleep."
"I'd really feel better. I just want to make sure it was really nothing."
"Great, now I feel like the bad, uncaring sister. Piper I didn't mean to sound so un-worried about it. I really just think it's a dream, no hidden meaning or anything."
"Phoebe don't be ridiculous. I know you care and I know that you know I love you, Prue's just being too overprotective. Let her stay, go ahead."
Phoebe smiled and left the room, a moment later her bedroom door could be heard closing lightly.
Piper layed her head back down on her pillow. "Prue, you really can go back to you're room, we're not 5 anymore. A bad dream is just a bad dream. It's not real, remember?"
"Yeah, well it's the remembering that I'm worried about."
"Come again?"
"Well what if it's something like that dream guy who almost tried to kill me by throwing me off a building, right before, you know?"
"Right before we lost our powers. But, we don't have any powers, what would even make you think that, now of all times?"
"Just lately, things seem, a bit, I don't know, off, and considering we were once witches, who knows what could be happening now," Prue said making herself comfortable on the nearby couch, "Look, I don't mean to worry you, get some sleep."
"Not without my big sister right here." Piper pouted patting the bed right next to her.
Prue climbed into bed with Piper and with that, the younger of the two instantly fell asleep feeling comforted that Prue was there. Prue's thoughts raced about how frightened she saw Piper get. It wasn't like her to get worked up over a bad dream, and even though from the moment she awoke she said she was fine, her eyes showed something different, a look of intense fear, but more clearly, they showed such curiosity. Prue didn't think she'd ever fall asleep with that unknown facts laid out, but after a short time, she did as well.
As she silently slept, Piper found herself once again in another place. In a park, the one Piper knew so well from attending camp there with Prue almost every summer of her childhood, she sat at a picnic bench all alone. She watched the little boys and girls running around playing on the monkey bars and in the sandbox.
Piper began eating a lunch she had packed for herself but stopped instantly when she saw another glow like before. This time the glow was above a young girl's arm. She carefully walked over to it and saw that it was coming from the hands of a man, not much older than herself. When he felt her presence he quickly retracted his hands and patted the girl on the head, "Does that feel better sweetie?" The man asked as he handed her back her raggedy old stuffed animal dog with a red ribbon around its neck.
The little girl nodded, "It always does Daddy, but Puppy's hurt too."
"Well I can fix that one," He stroked the dog's head and kissed it, "Good as new."
She gave him a big kiss and ran off. She turned around for a second though to take a look at Piper standing behind her father.
The man stood up and looked around uncomfortably. "What were you doing to her?" Piper asked.
"Just a little trick I learned in a parenting class." The man replied, laughing.
"But, that glow, I swear I've seen it before." Piper continued to ask.
The man's hear was a dirty blonde color and was getting blown around in the wind, "I've really got to go." He said and walked off vanishing into the distance just like the rest of the park, leaving Piper there all alone surrounded again, by nothing.
A/N: Blah!! That was a LOOONG scene with the girls, unintentionally, and these little dreams, well, sucked. Ok, well, I really have to get some sleep, so here you are. I hope this wasn't too terrible to read. Looking back over it, I had to take out stuff about demons as I totally forget there are no powers there at this time, because well, I took them away. LoL. I feel powerful too. Um, I haven't updated in over a month, meaning no reviews, so a nice batch of fresh ones would be me SO excited so please review with any ideas or comments. You have no idea how appreciated that would be. The next update should be much sooner, a week at the latest I'd say, but who knows, I may go write it tomorrow and have it up within a day or two, it all depends...I'm pretty free this week, so we'll see. Keep checking back for updates and let me know what you thought!
-Love
