Disclaimer: Um, I can't remember the one I used before but I don't own Charmed.

A/N: Aw, thank you for reviewing!! MollyBall: Nice pen name and thank you very much for reviewing Piperperson: Thank you for your lovely comments, I did what you said, well at least I hope I did! Dezi: I am so sorry about you mum, hope she is ok. Unfortunately Piper won't get better yet... Sad I know thanks for reviewing xjelliepotatoex: Hope I spelt that right! Hmm... Leo and Piper fluff? Let's hope so though there won't be much fluff if she doesn't tell him and currenly, she isn't, thank you for reviewing. Nothing really happens here but oh well, try and enjoy : )

Piper walked into the club. She seemed extremely dazed as she walked down the stairs and the music blazed through her wet ears. Christmas was coming up and surprise, surprise it was raining.

She had walked around for over three hours wondering... How could this happen? This couldn't be real... it couldn't be true. It just couldn't... 'How am I going to tell Leo?' she asked herself. 'It took so long to get this far, it can't just go away now... So much pain we've been through, I can't put him through more.'

Her thoughts were interrupted by a call. "Piper, how nice of you to turn up!" she heard Phoebe shout.

"Oh...hi..." Piper replied meekly as Phoebe walked over to her.

"Where the hell have you been. I've been waiting here for ages. Hello? Prue's away on her photography course and I wanted to go out with Cole all night but instead I had to look after the club because you couldn't be bothered to turn up!"

"I'm sorry..."

"That's all very well now but Cole spends half his life running away from the bounty hunters and when he does come to see me I can't go out. Where were you?"

Piper avoided her eyes. "It doesn't matter... I'm really sorry Phoebe, I just forgot." Phoebe sighed.

"Whatever Piper... God you're so wet. Just get cleaned up, I'll cover here." "W-what about Cole?"

"I'm not really in the mood for going out anyway." With that Phoebe walked off.

Piper watched as Phoebe walked, she was strutting making her feelings very clear. Piper closed her eyes for a second. She hadn't even told them yet and caused them trouble.

She turned around to walked into the office and crashed straight into Cole.

"Ouch! Cole spilt his drink over Piper. "Oh Piper, I'm so sorry!"

Piper stared down at her even more wet self.

"It's ok..."

"No, really sorry..." he insisted and tried to dab her with a towel from the side of the bar.

"I'm fine, I fine!" Piper said, jerking away from Cole. "I'm alright... thanks!" She ran into the office and slammed the door. She took a deep breath before sliding down the side of the door. She felt warm tears flow down her face for a few seconds before whispering to herself.

"This is not happening..." She crawled over to a mirror and pulled it towards her. Wiping a tear she started unbuttoning her shirt. She needed to know for herself what this...this tumour was and how she couldn't notice it before.

"Hey Piper!" greeted a warm voice.

"Leo!" Piper said, turning around. "Don't creep up on me like that..."

"Sorry," he apologised and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her in a strange way that Piper found unusual.

"Leo, what's wrong?"

"Oh nothing... I'm just glad to see you."

Piper nodded. "Leo there's something I need top tell you..."

"There's something I need to tell you," he replied. He sat her down on his lap. "I just want to say... I love you so much and thank you for keep trying for us. Thank you for never giving up on us and for fighting the Elders and for helping us get this far."

Piper bit her lip to stop herself crying. "W-where did that come from?"

Leo sniffed slightly which struck Piper as very strange. "I lost a charge today. She was new to the craft, just trying to help people. A warlock came, she died with a stab wound to her heart. I couldn't get there in time... and she had a four year old daughter!"

Piper put her arms around Leo. "It's not your fault..."

Leo nodded. "I know but... It, it made me realize that we're lucky. The time we've had, the time we'll have. It's special. An I don't know about you but I want to spend the rest of my life with you and I want you to know that."

Piper stared. "You're a white lighter, you won't die anyway..."

"I know but, we have a life time yet to come, I just can't wait to spend that with you. Her death made me realize that I'm so happy that I have you by my side."

A tear fell past Piper's face. "Me too..."

He kissed her tenderly before asking. "So what did you want to tell me?"

"I... I..."

"Yeah? Come on..."

"I...I...I love you too."

Leo smiled. "Is that it?" Piper nodded.

A/N: Was that Chapter any good? Please R R! Actually you've obviously read it, that's why you're on this page but please review it then. Please... An who should Piper tell first? Not Leo because I have him planned out but anyone else. Prue? Phoebe? Anyone. Demons, Warlocks, Darryl, Ghosts, Paige...whatever. Whoever you want. Please advise or is that advice? xXx
