Here I am with a new chapter! Remember to please tell me what you think in your reviews. ;)
Disclaimer: If I owned Charmed I certainly wouldn't be doing this right now.
Leo smiled knowing very well he had them trapped.
"Oh, I just said to go get your aunts," he replied.
Chris and Piper laughed nervously at his remark and Piper walked over to Leo and touched his forehead.
"Are you okay Leo? I think you hit your head or something. Do you feel okay?"
Leo rolled his eyes and grabbed Piper's hand. He held it and looked at Chris. His eyes turned tender and soft. Chris was his son. Then at that moment Leo made a mental note to apologize to Chris for all those times he accused him of lying, being evil, and for just hurting him in general. He turned and looked at Chris. Looking at him in the eyes he said:
"I know."
Those two words hit him like a ton of bricks. He couldn't believe Leo knew now too. First Phoebe, then Paige, next Piper, then Victor, lastly Leo. He had worked and made up a whole new identity, a cover story, but they found him out. Now everyone knew who he really was. He just came to save his brother, but now it seemed as though he could actually not just save him, but his whole family. He could save his mum. He could have a future with her and his entire family.
"How did you find out?"
Leo lowered his gaze. The memory came to him, like it just had happened. All the images seemed so vivid.
Piper on the floor, unconscious. Tears running down Chris' face while hitting the cage that kept him from helping her.
"I heard you last night. When you were screaming for Piper. You called her mum. I remember putting the pieces together and then everything else was darkness."
Chris sighed and Piper let go of Leo's hands.
"So much for a cover," Chris though, "how stupid can I get, screaming like that."
"Why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it all a secret?" Leo questioned them both, not just Chris this time, but also Piper.
"I just found out, Phoebe and Paige barely told me a few days ago," Piper answered.
Chris kept silent, he didn't know what to say, how to answer.
"Okay, then why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?"
Piper sighed, she had already gone through all of this with her sisters.
"I knew how hard it had been when you left only one son, I didn't want you to feel the hurt of having to know you left two this time. I thought it would be for the best," she told him and then lowered her head a bit from feeling a bit ashamed.
"Oh," was all Leo could say.
"She was just trying to help me by saving me pain," he thought. Leo turned from Piper to Chris, who had kept quiet through all the conversation.
"Why didn't you tell us who you really were when you first got here?"
Chris knew that was coming and was already prepared to answer it.
"You know as well as I do that I wasn't able because of future consequences. If I had just told you that could or would have changed the future in many ways. I didn't want to take that chance. So that's why I made up the whole cover story, that's why I couldn't tell you who I really was. But of course, I messed up and Aunt Phoebe found me out and then I had to tell Aunt Paige about it too. They both told mum and well, you know the rest," he explained and sat down at the stairs.
"Okay, well, then I have one final question for you," Leo said, he had been confused about something since he had met Chris, he was always sour toward him. It looked like he had been after him and he wanted to know why.
"What do you have against me? You always look and talk to me with anger, why did I do to you to make you so angry at me?"
Chris could see in Leo's eyes the confusion and wonder. Tears filled his eyes as he recalled the future, his future.
