This chapter is especially long, because I won't be updating in a few days... maybe in like three, and then I'll take another break of a few days... I'm kind of busy these two coming weeks, so the updates won't come everyday like they usually do. Please review!

Chapter 8

On the way to the movie theatre, things seemed to lighten up between the two, and the shyness they both felt at the beginning of the date was almost gone.

They chose a movie they both wanted to see, and saw it. While watching, they made funny remarks about how bad some of the actors were playing and found each other staring at the other a lot, then stopping, then looking again, never at the same time. At the end of the movie, they both agreed it was worth seeing, regard the poor acting job.

Next they headed to a nice place to have dinner, and it was a bit over 10 at the time. The two were having disserts and laughing about a bad joke, when piper felt someone's eyes on her.

It didn't take her too long to realize that Ally and Greg are just a few tables away from them; Piper's expression must have changed very dramatically, because Leo sure noticed something was wrong.

"What's wrong? Piper?" He looked over to where pipers gaze was pierced, and saw who she was looking at. Then he flashed one of his smiles, and waved his hand hello, trying to look casual.

Greg didn't seem to notice Piper and Leo at all, and all Leo got for return for his wave from Ally is just a hateful expression.

Leo turned back to piper, who still had a terror in her eyes.

She was holding a napkin in her hand, or rather squeezing a napkin in her hand.

Leo noticed, and put his hand on Piper's, then smiled.

"Hey, its ok, Ally knows to keep her distance. He said.

Piper finally looked at him, and let go of the crumpled napkin.

"I know, sorry." She was planning to leave it at that, but then couldn't stop herself from continuing.

"I just have nightmares from the day she had that guy smash my car... but never mind that. Really, ignore me." She said, and glanced back at Ally, who was still staring at piper with hate.

"We could go somewhere else..." Leo offered.

"Oh, no. Lets finish out disserts." She managed a smile, and dug her spoon into her ice-cream.

The next 20 minutes were especially awkward. Piper couldn't help being tense, and Leo noticed. They both finished their desserts quickly, and walked out of the place.

Piper could feel Ally's gaze still on her when they were leaving, and when she turned to look at Ally, Ally's mouthed the words- "you are dead". Piper quickly turned away, and let her breath out only when they were out of the place and safe.

They walked down the street for another minute or so in perfect silence, until Leo broke it; "Were you and Ally always... you know... fighting?"

Piper smiled. She always hated Ally, but couldn't say they were fighting.

She looked at Leo, who was still waiting for and answer, then said; "This only started this year."

"Really? Why?" Leo asked.

Piper couldn't help but laugh.

"Because of you." She said. Seeing Leo's confused face, she continued and explained. "As soon as Ally put her eyes on you, she decided you were hers. Then after you rejected her, and became friends with me... well, then she truly started hating me."

Leo seemed shocked. Then he looked like he just realized something.

"Wait, is that why she did the whole car scene? As a revenge that I chose you over her?" he asked.

Piper consecrated on the words Leo said. He chose her over Ally. He chose PIPER. She smiled.

"I guess... but please don't feel guilty; the whole deal is behind us."

Leo looked at her, and let go of the subject.

They started talking about other things, like Leo's previous girlfriend, who he found making out with his best friend one day,

"Are you kidding??" piper exclaimed. "What did you do?"

"Nothing. I broke up with her, and wished them both good luck, they are dating for over 6 months now" he said simply.

Piper laughed.

They spent the next 30 minutes walking in a park, talking- about everything.

At some point, piper realized that they are holding hands for a while now, and felt wired for a moment.

Leo was great.

She regretted all the fears she had about loosing their friendship.

They set down on a bench, shoulder to shoulder, and looked up at the sky. There were only a few lonely clouds, and the stars were visible.

Piper looked at Leo.

The moon light was shining on him, giving it just the right shade. She could see every hair on his head, and every feature on his perfect face.

When Leo looked at her, she didn't look away, she kept her gaze still.

A smile formed on his face, and piper smiled back, admiring his eyes which were locked on hers.

Then they kissed.

Not a long a kiss, but a kiss, and a hell of a good one.

Piper wanted to remember the moment forever.

The two of them set on that bench for another half an hour, not talking too much, but still having the best time they ever had in each other's company.

They kissed again- longer this time.

After a few minutes when piper looked at the time, it was almost midnight. Late, but not too late.

"You want me to take you home?" Leo asked, noticing piper checking the time.

"That is if you want me to leave..." piper said.

"Oh no! Of course not!" Leo stopped when piper started laughing.

"It's ok, I know what you meant."

That night pipe told Leo about her parents for the first time. They have known each other for over 3 months, but she never told him before that might, and Leo never pressured her to.

"Mom died when I was five, but I hardly remember her. I sometimes feel ashamed that I can only remember her face from pictures." She told him.

Piper could see Leo feeling sorry for her, then he asked quite uncomfortably; "And... your dad? Did he... you know..."

"No. My father is alive and breathing as far as I know. He left me and my sisters a few years after Mom passed away. We didn't hear from him since." Piper said a bit sadly.

"I'm sorry." Leo's voice was almost whispering.

"It's ok. Besides, Grams is great, she loves us more then anything else and she took care of us for many years."

"She does seem great." Leo said in a comforting voice.

Piper smiled, and looked away for a minute. It was pretty cold, which was unusual for that time of the year in San Francisco, but that didn't seem to meter. Sitting like that on a bench with Leo's arm around her shoulder so close she could almost feels his warm breath on her.

Piper told Leo about her childhood, and her sisters, and he seemed surprisingly interested. His eyes never left Piper's.

They reached a moment of silence, when they were looking deeply into each others eyes, and piper was sure Leo is about to kiss her once more.

But then, instead of doing that, he said; "You have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen."

As romantically as it sounded, it was actually lame; it was a line from the movie they saw earlier that evening.

Both Piper and Leo burst into laughter.

"No... really! You do..." he finally managed to stop laughing, and so did piper.

"Leo, it's not fair to steal a line. You have to come up with something of your own." She said in a teacher-like voice.

"Ok... Let's see..." Leo thought for a second, and then said;

"You have the smartest eyes I have ever seen".

"Hmm... I guess that'll do."

Not long after that, they headed back to Leo's car. When they reached the manor, Leo walked piper to the door.

"Thanks for the great night." piper said, and meant it with all her heart.

"No, thank you my lady." Leo smiled, and gave piper a kiss, the last one for that night.

When piper walked into the house, she found both her sister right next to the door.

"Well??" Phoebe asked.

"How was it?" Prue asked almost at the same time.

"Did you kiss?"

"Of course they kissed."

"Tell me everything!"

"E-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g!!" Prue exclaimed.

Piper laughed and walked right between them down the hall.

"It was... he was charming." And that was all she said, before going upstairs, with a smile on her face.

A/N: let me know what you thought of their first date. Next chapter- piper comes home from school and the unexpected happens.
