Now nothing can take you away from me,
We've been down that road before,
But that's over now,
You keep me coming back for more.
Baby, you're all that I want,
Seconds, minutes and hours passed before the news really settled in. Leo was called and quickly arrived at the hospital. But in that period of hours, the night came, then slowly the day came again, and then the night...Slowly the days passed, turning into weeks, but still nothing happened. For over a week Piper had been in a coma, and everyday her family would come in and see her, but for most of the time it was just Leo sitting at the bedside of an unconscious Piper.
Once again Leo stood up...he didn't stand to go anywhere; he would just stand up and pace back and forth along the length of Piper's bed.
"Come on Piper...please, you have to wake up...I need you to wake up." Leo said for the umpteenth time that week. A lot of good that did.
On the fifteenth night, Leo sat by Piper's side, he'd just bought a radio in and switched it on...he knew she probably wouldn't hear, but it was something he needed to do anyway.
"And here's a song with a sad story. Leo's best friend is currently in a coma, due to a car accident, and he just wants to say that he loves her and would do anything for her...so here it is-Truly Madly Deeply by Savage Garden..."
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy,
I'll be your hope; I'll be your love be everything that you need.
I love you more with each breath truly madly deeply do...
I will be strong I'll be faithful 'cause I'm counting on a new beginning,
A reason for living. A deeper meaning. Yeah...
Leo looked over at Piper, and even though he saw her hooked up to loads of machines, that scared him, his look was full of love for her...
I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down over me.
Leo had decided that the first thing he would do when Piper awakes was to tell her what he truly felt. He was no longer scared of rejection; in fact he didn't care about that. He'd been with Piper ever since she was taken in to hospital and waking everyday to the fact that he may never talk to her again, killed him...he just wanted, no, needed her to know how he felt.
And when the stars are shining in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish, send it to heaven then make you want to cry...
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of...
The highest powers. In lonely hours. The tears devour you...
Leo stopped pacing, and turned to look at Piper, for a fleeting moment he thought he'd seen her eyelids flutter, but he quickly dismissed that, as he watched her lay still. This hadn't been the first time that he'd thought he'd seen her move...his mind would often play tricks on him, when he'd been staring at her motionless body for too long, there would just be the smallest hint of a movement, but it never was...
I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down over me.
Leo turned round, and walked over to the window. Looking out across the city, he was completely oblivious to the world around him, as he slipped into his own daydreams. He was completely oblivious to the fact that Piper's eyelids had actually fluttered. After a moment they actually opened, she tried to speak, but could say nothing. A moment later she tried to speak again...
"Leo," a faint, dry whisper could be heard from the bed...
Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes, 'cause it's standing right before you,
All that you need will surely come.
I'll be our dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath truly, madly deeply do...
Leo turned the second he heard the faint whisper.
"Piper..." he began, seeing Piper's eyes open. He rushed to her side.
"Piper...oh my God! God, I'm so relieved...I was so worried, I thought I'd...we'd lost you..." Leo trailed off realising he made little or no sense. Piper tried to speak, but her mouth was dry and no words would come.
"I'll go let someone know you're awake." Leo said and quickly moved over to the door and managed to get someone's attention, they said they'd be right there.
"L...Le...Leo?"
I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down over me.
I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down over me.
"I'm right here Pipe," Leo said walking back towards Piper.
Piper tried giving Leo a smile, but it was small and weak. Her whole body rang out with the pain that she had been unable to feel for over two weeks. It was as if she had just walked into a room filled with darkness and pain, lots of pain...
"Piper, don't say anything...I know it hurts, a doctor will be here soon. I'm gonna go call your family; tell them that you're awake. I'll be back soon," Leo tried to say in a calm voice, he wanted to tell Piper that everything would work out okay, but the truth was, seeing the look of pain on her face, he didn't have a clue.
On his way out of the room to call Piper's family, he bumped into Piper's doctor.
A short while later, after calling Piper's family he came back into the room, just as the doctor was leaving.
"How is she?" Leo asked the doctor just before, he entered Piper's room.
"She's stable," The doctor started, but off of Leo's look he continued, "She's got no major long-term damage, however, I think she may have broken or maybe just sprained her wrist, so she'll need to be taken for x-rays at some point later today." The doctor said before rushing off.
Leo looked and felt relieved, after fearing the worst for weeks; it was good to know that hopefully Piper would be okay.
"Hi," Leo said walking into the room, to see Piper sitting upright, with a smile upon her face.
"Hey."
"So...how long have you really been up?" Leo asked, beginning to wonder if when she'd opened her eyes, was actually the time she'd woken up.
Piper's smile turned into a bit of a mischievous grin. "Not long."
"Piper..." Leo started.
"Okay...okay...long enough."
Leo smiled back at Piper wondering if she meant what he thought.
"Is that really how you feel?"
"You heard the song?" He asked kind of avoiding the question. She nodded slightly-it still hurt.
"Ummmm..." He started; she looked at him, her eyes saying 'Well...I'm waiting...'
"What would you say if I said yes?"
"What do you think I'd say?"
"I honestly don't know Pipe, that's why I've never said anything-until now."
"Firstly...I'm gonna say you're an idiot!" Leo looked at Piper, confused.
"Honestly...I thought you'd never say anything. You can be so blind at times."
Leo still looked confused. Piper couldn't help prevent the chuckle that escaped her.
"You want me to spell it out?" Piper asked before grabbing him, and pulling him in for a kiss. It took a moment for Leo to respond, but soon he was kissing her back.
"Ow..." Piper said as Leo pulled away.
A look of guilt and worry flashed across Leo's face, thinking that he'd hurt her.
"Your so cute...Don't worry, you didn't do anything, it's just my wrist kinda hurts."
"Yeah, the doctor said you might have sprained or broken it."
A while later Piper's family appeared in the doorway. Their faces broke into smiles as they saw her smiling and chatting with Leo.
"Piper!" Prue, Phoebe and Paige, all said excitedly; happy to see their sister awake.
"Hey," she responded.
"I'm just gonna go home for a bit. Give you guys some time alone." Leo said.
"No, Leo you don't have to leave...stay." Piper pleaded.
"It's okay; you should spend some time with your family. I just need to pop out for a bit...I'll come back later though." Piper smiled at him, as he left the room.
