Chapter 8 - "Yeah, and she also let him park his plane in her driveway"
Paige was laying on the ground, on her side, watching the water drift by. *If only my love life
were as smooth* Suddenly a a bird swooped down and caught a small fish in it's beak. *On second
thought, maybe not* Paige laughed to herself. She was feeling a bit lonely. She had her sisters
of course, but it wasn't enough. She needed a man, a real man. She liked Cole but she figured he
would be so much better as a friend to her rather than a boyfirend. Besides, Phoebe and Cole liked
each other even though they hadn't met, and Paige still had a lost friend in the back of her mind.
It had been around two hours since Paige had arrived at the stream. A wild dog running past awoken
Paige from her slumber. *Oh god, what time is it?* Paige didn't have a watch with her but all she
had to do was look forward. It was sunset, and what a beautiful one it was. Paige's eyes followed
the dog as it disappeared from her vision. Then she headed back home.
"Hey Paige, nice of you to orb home" Piper remarked.
"I didn't orb...ohh you knew that." Paige knew Piper had wondered where she was.
"Yes, yes i did."
"Sorry Mother."
"Pfft, it's okay sweetie, i was just joshin."
Paige felt relieved. She thought Piper was going to yell, but she thought wrong.
"So, where did your little legs take you this afternoon? Somewhere good?"
"Yeah actually they did. I found myself at this cute little stream, and i met Phoebe's Cole."
"Phoebe's Coal? What has Phoebe been bad this year so she started a pile of Coal to save Santa
giving her some later??" Piper was sarcastic, but also confused as she didn't know who Cole was.
*lol* "No. Cole Turner"
"Oh! So she named it then - how creative" Piper was amused.
"Jeeze, Piper. Cole is a guy!"
"I SO knew that" Paige looked at Piper "I did! Hello? Joking again Paige"
"Yeah, you joke so much, it's sometimes hard to tell the difference anymore"
Piper slapped Paige on the arm playfully. "Alright, seriously though, who is Cole? I didn't know
Phoebe was seeing anyone."
"Phoebe is seeing someone?" Prue yelled from the kitchen, putting her bags down.
"Oh hey Prue." Paige said.
"Hey. So, is she?" Prue asked.
"Is she what?" Paige was lost.
"Seeing someone" Piper chimed in.
"Oh!, no she isn't. She just talked to this lawyer this morning called Cole Turner - not a piece
of coal Piper..."
"Huh??" Prue was confused.
"Never mind." Piper tried not to confuse Prue anymore than she was.
"And i happened to run into him while i was at the stream" Paige finished her sentence.
"Ooh, what's he like?" Prue put her bag down.
"Well he's tall, dark and handsome."
"Just they way i like 'em" Prue smiled. "Right Piper?"
"Piper?" Paige waved her hand in front of Piper's face.
"Huh, wha? Oh yeah...well not neccessarliy Dark, but i will go for tall, blonde and handsome."
Piper had dreamy eyes.
"Oh yeah? Why's that Pippy, spill" Prue knew something..well someone was up.
"Don't call me that!" Piper scowled. Paige laughed. "I met this flying doctor today." Piper
grinned.
"You know honey, from all the way up there, he might look a little different when down here."
"No, I didn't see him in the plane up there, i met him on the ground."
"You two are already on the ground gettin busy? You sleaze." ;) Prue teased.
"No! Ugh, how can i get this into your head Prudence? We met outside of the plane. There was this
scruffy guy who was badly hurt. So we flew him back here..."
"Here? You just met the doctor and you brought him home already? Hehehe" Prue teased again.
"Yeah, and she also let him park his plane in her driveway.....uh! that came out wrong eheh, let
me rephrase" Paige was a little embarrased.
"Don't worry bout it. Anyway, Leo fixed Danny's arm up...and then he kicked him out of the house"
"Wow, he really wanted to be alone with you didn't he?" Prue got an evil idea in her head again.
"Yes well...no, that's not what he wanted...although...no, Prue. No sex on the first date.."
"That wasn't your first date Piper" Paige said.
"True, good point. I take it back" Piper grinned a naughty grin.
"I take it you had a nice dream then sis?" Paige asked, wanting to know details.
"Yup!"
"Do tell" Prue was also interested to see what this Leo fellow was like.
"Hell no! He's for my thoughts only." Piper teased and then ran off. Prue and Paige followed.
"Come on Piper, it's not like it was real so you can tell without feeling guilty..naughty, but
not guilty." Paige begged.
"Who's been naughty and guilty?" Phoebe had entered the room and her ears pricked up at the sound
of those words.
"Nobody has, unfortunately" Piper told.
"Ooh, see something you like sis?"
"Ooohhh yeaahh. I can't wait to see him again."
"Why don't you just go to sleep?" This time Piper slapped Prue on the arm as she smiled.
"I think i'd rather the real thing thankyou."
"Ohh the real thing, how i miss that." Paige said sadly.
"Yeah Piper, at least you have someone to set your sights on. I haven't met anyone in a while."
Prue sat next to Paige and both looked a little glum.
"I have!" Phoebe yelled.
"Aw, i didn't mean to make you two feel bad." Piper apologised.
"I met.." Phoebe tried to cut in.
"No you didn't mean to Piper" Paige said.
"Yeah, enjoy your new eyecandy for us okay" Prue said with a glint in her eye.
"I met someone!" Phoebe stood up, before falling on the chair again.
"Okay Phoebe, we heard. Would this happen to be Cole Turnip?" Piper asked.
"Cole TURNER Piper! Cole Turnip, why'd you come up with a name like that?" Phoebe said.
"I needed to laugh at your expense?" Piper stepped back before Phoebe could whack her leg.
"Thanks a lot." Phoebe tried to hold back a smile but Piper kept making faces. "Ogh, i hate you
when you do that!"
"No you don't Pheebs, you love me" Piper's 'gotcha' grin had made a come back.
"Grrr. Ok so i spoke to Cole on the phone earlier this morn, and then he ran into me in town"
"Wow, he's good." Paige commented.
"Yeah, and he said you were a very nice girl. Thanks for being nice Paige." Phoebe praised.
"Of course i would be. He's a nice guy"
"Yeah, and reaaaaal hot." Phoebe fanned her face.
"Not as hot as Mr. Wyatt" Piper jumped in.
"Hmm, i don't know about that Piper." Phoebe hit back.
"How would you? You haven't met Leo."
"And you haven't met Cole."
"Paige has met both of them" Prue butted in.
*Thanks a lot Prue* Paige thought. Paige shot daggers at Prue with her eyes. "Yes i have"
"So, who's hotter then Paige? Phoebe tried to say it so Paige would take her side and beat Piper.
"Oh no, i'm not getting in the middle of this. Anyway who cares? Piper likes Leo and Phoebe likes
Cole, end of story."
"Nicely said sista." Prue complimented.
"I can agree with that." Piper said, agreeing with Paige before Phoebe could. Phoebe narrowed her
eyes at Piper. Then Piper and Phoebe started laughing. They both knew they were just mucking
around with each other, as they did often.
That was one of the good Halliwell traits, they all had a good sense of humor, even when times
got tough.
