A Heart's Cry

Chapter 8

Piper opened her eyes to what she thought would be Cole's face, but she instead found herself in the attic. Piper was surprised. How did she get here? Piper quickly looked at her abdomen, where she was stabbed. All that was there were two red welts.

"What the....

Piper looked around herself. She was in the middle of a circle of candles. The Book of Shadows opened in front of her. Piper looked at the spell and as she did, everything came flooding back to her.

The silence. The ignorance. The fight. Leo orbing away. She coming to the attic. Casting the spell. The spell to see things differently.

"I didn't think things would be seen that differently," Piper said to herself.

She then realized that the spell showed her with Cole. Oh my God! Piper thought. How could she lust after her sister's husband? Wait! It wasn't lust, it was love. Piper shook her head. She thought she was in love with Cole. He just tried to kill her. He was evil. No! They would have known if Cole was evil. He was good. His demonic half had just been stripped.

Piper got up and put the Book of Shadows back on its stand and then she put away the candles. Piper decided she would go to her room. Take a quick nap and then call Leo and apologize to him.

As Piper went downstairs and on her way to her room, she passed Phoebe's room. Cole shimmered right in front of the door, causing Piper to bump into him.

A box of chocolates and a bouquet of beautiful red roses fell from Cole's hands. Piper immediately put her hands up and froze everything, including Cole.

Piper's first thought was to blow Cole up for trying to kill her, but as Piper looked into his handsome face; she was drawn to his deep blue eyes. Her eyes traveled to his lips on which she wanted to place a kiss on so bad.

Piper shook her head. She was lusting again. She loved Leo. Piper unfroze Cole, only.

"Sorry," Piper said.

"No, it's my fault," Cole said as he gathered his roses and chocolates again.

Piper and Cole looked at each other for a second. Cole, especially drawn to her brown eyes.

Piper pulled away from Cole's eyes and started to walk towards her room.

"Piper, wait!" Cole called out.

Piper turned around.

"You seem different today," Cole said. "Did you and Leo fight again?"

Piper shifted uncomfortably.

"Sorry," Cole said again. "It's none of my business."

Piper didn't say anything.

Cole took a rose from his bouquet. The most beautiful from the batch.

"Here. Someone as beautiful as you deserves a beautiful rose," Cole walked towards Piper and gave her the rose.

Piper took it and smiled. "Thanks." She leaned upwards and placed a soft kiss on Cole's cheek. She pulled back and then blushed. She didn't know what caused her to do that.

"It's okay," Cole said and he quickly turned to Phoebe's room. He was taken back by Piper's guesture, even more by what he said to her.

Piper watched Cole putting his hand on the doorknob, when Phoebe suddenly opened the door.

"Are these for me?" Phoebe cooed.

Cole smiled.

Phoebe took the box of chocolates first. She ate a couple and then placed one in Cole's mouth. Cole held the roses out for her. Phoebe took them and then pulled Cole in for a kiss, tossing the roses behind her shoulder. Phoebe pulled Cole inside and slammed the door shut.

Piper turned back to her door. At least they didn't have any problems. Piper walked into her room contemplating the spell she had just cast when she saw Leo. He was waiting on the bed for her. He immediately got up and kissed Piper, passionately.

Piper pushed the thoughts of the spell and Cole from her mind. The beautiful red rose fell from her hands as Leo carried her to the bed. She and Leo persisted to make love. All their problems were erased form their minds.

Little did Piper know that the spell she had casted had showed her some of the future.

The End.
