Magical Princess: How did you know?! Lol
Thanx to all who reviewed.
"I...I...I don't know." Piper's eyes widened, "Oh my God!" Piper ran past Phoebe, down the stairs, grabbing her purse as she ran out the door. She got into her jeep, rummaged through her purse to find her keys, and started it up. She took a moment to calm herself, 'Maybe I just have the flu.' she thought to herself. Calm now, Piper slowly pulled out into the street and headed to the drug store. Once there, she raced in and looked frantically around for the pregnancy tests. She spotted them in aisle five. She ran down the aisle, wondering what the results would be. Grabbing the test, she headed to the counter. Piper put the test on the counter, not noticing that the cashier was Karen, an old friend. "Piper? Piper Halliwell, is that you?" Piper looked up from her purse, "Karen Hawthorne?" she asked. Piper pulled her wallet out of her purse hoping Karen wouldn't question her purchase. "So how have you been?" asked Karen scanning the test. "Good...good." replied Piper handing Karen the money. "Well, I better be going, my husband's waiting in the car. Maybe we can get together sometime and catch up." Piper turned and walked out of the store.
Back at the manor, Phoebe was trying to tell Jason about her being a witch. "Jason, I don't know how to say this so I'm just gonna say it. I'm a witch." "Where's your broom?" Jason replied with a smile. "Jason, I'm serious! I'm a real witch with real magical powers." Jason got a worried look on his face, "Phoebe, are you on some sort of drugs?" Frustrated, Phoebe said, "Fine! I'll prove it to you." Phoebe levitated. Crossing her legs, she looked down at Jason. Jason's mouth opened wide enough that he could put his entire foot in it. His eyes rolled back in his head, and he collapsed on the bed. Phoebe came down and ran into the bathroom. She got a cup of ice cold water and splashed it on his face. His eyes widened and he scooted towards the head of the bed away from Phoebe. "You...you...you stay away from me you... you witch!" he yelled. He jumped off the bed and ran out of Phoebe's room. He took the steps three at a time and ran out the front door.
Piper pulled up to the manor just in time to see Jason running frantically down the front stairs. 'I guess Phoebe told him.' she thought to herself. She quickly put this out of her mind and ran up the front stairs as fast as her legs would carry her. She calmed herself, 'If I go running up the stairs, Phoebe will surely think something's up.' she thought. She put her purse on the table and walked normally up the stairs to the bathroom, test in hand. She entered the bathroom, shut the door, and locked it. Slowly, she pulled the test out of the bag and opened the box. There was a knock on the door that made her jump. "Piper? You in there?" "Yeah Phoebes, I'll be out in a few minutes." she answered. Piper took the test and waited anxiously. After the two minutes were up, Piper held her breath and slowly picked it up. Piper's eyes grew wide, then rolled back in her head and she fell to the floor.
'Up There', Leo was pacing back and forth trying to figure out a way for him and Piper to be together. He had thought about clipping his wings, but Piper had told him before that she didn't want him to. 'What if it's the only way?' he thought to himself. Leo's thoughts were interrupted by Cydney, a young whitelighter, orbing in. "Leo! Leo! Do you know anything about the Lacruto demon?" "Yes. Your witch should be able to vanquish him with a simple spell." Cydney nodded, "Thank you." he said orbing out. Leo went back to his thoughts.
Standing on the Golden Gate Bridge, Chris sensed something wrong with Piper. He quickly orbed to her side. He saw her lying on the floor, test in hand. He picked it up, realizing it was a pregnancy test, "Yes!" he shouted, forgetting Piper was unconscious next to him. Hearing his shout, Piper woke up startled, "Chris, what are you doing here?" Chris quickly put his hand holding the test behind his back, "I, uh...I sensed something was wrong and found you laying on the floor. What happened? Did a demon attack?" Piper sat up, "No, I just haven't been feeling too well. I think I have the flu." Although Chris knew she was lying, he played along, "Well, you should get some rest then. Come on." He orbed them to her bedroom. Laying her on her bed, he turned and walked back to the bathroom. After replacing the test on the floor, he orbed to Leo.
Startled, Leo looked up, finding Chris standing in front of him. "Is something wrong with Piper?" Chris replied, "No. Not exactly, but she does need to talk to you." Leo instantly orbed to Piper's side. "Piper, what happened?" Piper rolled over to look at Leo, after a few minutes of looking into each other's eyes, Piper asked, "Remember last night? What we did?" Leo smiled, "Yes I do." "Well...we did more than we thought." Leo looked at her in confusion, "Piper, what are you trying to say?" Piper stood up, she grabbed his hand and led him into the bathroom. Handing him the test she said, "Leo, I'm pregnant." Leo's eyes widened, "You're what!" "I'm pregnant." "How could this happen?!" Piper looked at him with a puzzled look, "I KNOW how it happened. But how could it HAPPEN?" Phoebe heard Leo's shouts and ran to the bathroom, "What the hell is going on?" she asked. Piper grabbed the test from Leo's hand and hid the it behind her back, "Nothing, nothing at all." "Well, Piper, as Prue would say, 'Nothing usually means something.'" There was complete silence as Leo stared at Piper, Piper stared at Phoebe, and Phoebe kept looking between the two.
Down in the kitchen, Chris was baking cookies, something he did a lot with his mother in the future. Phoebe, who had gotten tired of the silence upstairs, walked in and was surprised when she sensed Chris. She usually couldn't sense him. He was happy, very happy. "Watcha doin?" she asked walking over to the island and standing next to him. "Just baking some cookies. I used to do it a lot with my mom back in the future." The buzzer went off on the oven, Chris turned from the bowl of batter he was mixing. He grabbed the oven mitts from on top of the stove, opened the oven door, and took the pan of chocolate chip cookies out. Putting it on top of the stove he asked, "So, why was Leo shouting?" Phoebe looked at him and grabbed a cookie, "I don't know. They wouldn't tell me." Chris smiled. "Why are you so happy?" Chris didn't answer her question, he just kept mixing the batter and smiling.
Upstairs, Piper and Leo heard Wyatt scream. Piper dropped the test from her hand as they rushed to the nursery to see a Parasite demon standing over him, sucking the power of his force field. Piper flexed her fingers and easily blew him up. They rushed over to Wyatt's playpen, Piper picked him up and asked in her baby voice, "Are you ok honey? Did the mean demon hurt you?" Wyatt simply smiled and reached for Leo. Phoebe and Chris came running in as Leo took his son from his mother's arms. "Is everything ok?" asked Chris in a worried tone. "Yeah, just a pesky Parasite demon. I blew him up." answered Piper. Phoebe slowly exhales a sigh of relief as she turns and walks to the bathroom.
Seeing a white stick lying on the floor, Phoebe rubs her eyes in disbelief. She slowly walks over to pick it up. She sees the two blue lines and realized that is what Leo's shouts were about. 'I knew it! Piper denied it, but I knew it! Piper's pregnant and it's Leo's child.' she thought. Carrying the test into the nursery, Phoebe asks Piper, "I found this on the floor. It doesn't belong to me. Would you like to explain it?" Piper looks at Leo, then at Phoebe, "Not really." she answers before running to the bathroom. Phoebe looks at Leo, "How about you? Do you want to explain it?" Starting to orb with Wyatt in his arms, Leo answers, "Not really." Piper comes out of the bathroom to meet Phoebe's stare. "Well?" asked Phoebe. Piper replies, "What is there to explain? I'm pregnant." Chris, who is still in the room, smiles so big that Piper takes her attention off of Phoebe and looks at him. "May I ask what you're smiling at?" "Ok, your going to find out anyway, Mom." Again, Piper's eyes widened, "What did you call me?" Chris took a step forward, "Mom." Phoebe turned around. Piper and her younger sister stared wide eyed at Chris for five minutes before he got too uncomfortable and orbed out.
He orbed to his favorite place in the park to think. A place his mother took him a lot when he was a kid. He sat down on the bench that sometime in the future would have his initials carved in it, and thought, 'I guess it was too soon for me to tell them. God Chris how could you be so stupid? How would you feel if someone you barely trusted suddenly told you they were your child? I wouldn't believe them either. How can I go back and face her now? What if she's disappointed in how I turned out? Oh, God, the cookies!' Chris orbed back to the kitchen in the manor just as the buzzer on the oven went off. Chris quickly took the cookies out of the oven and put them on top of the stove, next to the first batch. He heard his mother's voice and orbed out dropping the oven mitts on the floor.
