A/N: This part contains a warning for adult situations. Darryl Jr is also around 2 years old. I know that is not consistent with the timeline of the show but it fits my purposes. son gomay vidal goku Nice prediction, but Shax isn't the demon I'm thinking about at the moment. I have other plans for both Andy and Shax. Hannah415, Anna, and Kaili: Thank you so much for the comments. I hope this next part will meet everyone's expectations!!
Halliwell Manor
The dinning room table was set for eight awaiting the huge feast that Piper had prepared. She'd spent all day making a honey style ham with all of the fixings, and a baked Alaska for dessert. Darryl and his wife Sheila along with their son two-year-old Darryl Andrew had just arrived.
"Darryl! Sheila, come in!" Phoebe chimed, "I'm so glad you could make it"
"We're always glad to come" Sheila smiled warmly kissing Phoebe's cheek but what's the special occasion?"
Well since the wedding didn't quite go as planned, Piper wanted to have a special dinner with the family before she and Leo went on their honeymoon.
"I see"
Darryl looked around as Piper and Leo came out of the kitchen, "Where's Prue?"
"Still getting ready" Phoebe answered, "She actually has a hot date"
"A hot date?" Darryl's eyebrows raised, "It's not that biker punk from the bar is it?"
"No" Phoebe giggled.
"That Convict Bane Jessup?"
"God No!" Phoebe snorted, "It's someone totally the opposite"
"Who?" Sheila inquired with great curiosity.
"You'll see" Phoebe beamed spotting her oldest sister coming down the stairs. Prue was dressed in a floral print knee length dress with spaghetti straps, and slip on shoes.
"Dinner's on the table!" Piper's voice rang out, signaling everyone to the table. I like to make a toast before we begin eating Leo said taking Piper and Phoebe's hands. "To your new marriage, and the return of a lost love"
"To Marriage and Lost Love, " Everyone echoed.
Phoebe winked at Prue as a swirl of orbs illuminated from the parlor. "I'll be right back," Prue breathed excusing herself from the table.
"Hey" Prue smiled brightly. Andy was standing in the parlor holding a bouquet of miniature roses and a box of twizzlers, "these are for you"
"Thank you," Prue said into his lips, "and as Phoebe would say you look Oooh...very yummy". Andy laughed at her playful humor. His attire had changed from black jeans and leather to a white dress shirt and black Dockers.
"Yummy, huh?" Andy covered her mouth with his, "maybe we should skip dinner"
"Piper would kill us" Prue said letting his kiss die to slow pecks. Andy pulled her close and kissed her again, "Let her, I'm already dead"
"On the contrary, with a kiss like that you are very much alive" Prue turned out of the kiss, and grabbed his hand, "C'mon there is someone here you'll want to see"
Darryl had just taken a sip of wine when Prue and Andy walked into the room. "Oh God"
"I don't believe it," he muttered, nearly choking on the savory liquid. The surprised inspector just stared at his ex-partner before rising to his feet.
"Hey Darryl, Shelia" Andy greeted with his trademark grin.
Shelia's face turned pale, "I never thought ghosts were real" she whispered to Phoebe as the two men hugged. "He's not a ghost," Phoebe answered, "at least not today" Andy leaned over and kissed Shelia's cheek.
"Shelia you are still as beautiful as ever". Still in shock, Sheila's mouth dropped open as Andy reached over and lifted little Darryl from his booster chair, "Hey there big guy, I'm your Godfather...or at least I was suppose to be."
Andy adverted his eyes to Darryl for a moment.
We named him after you, "Darryl Andrew Morris" Darryl said proudly.
"This is your Uncle Andy," Prue cooed pinching the baby's cheeks before Andy handed little Darryl back to Sheila. The rest of the evening was spent enjoying the meal and making small about old times, as well as wishes for the future.
"I gotta tell you man, Prue hasn't been the same since you died" Darryl said as he and Andy stood in the parlor watching the women clean off the table, "it was like a part of her died too. Seeing her here tonight with you, it's like she's come alive again"
"I think Prue gets along just fine without me," Andy's head cocked just a little as he studied Prue's profile, and her sunny smile.
"So how much time do you have?" Darryl asked, remembering that Patty had been sent back on a twenty-four hour loan for the sole purpose of attending Piper's wedding.
"I don't know" Andy grinned, handing Darryl, "but one thing certain, I'm going to make the most of it. Excuse me" He then crossed to the table and whispered something in Prue's ear making her laugh.
Lifting his glass, Darryl toasted the couple; "I can only hope that destiny is that good to me"
After Darryl and Shelia had gone home and Piper and Leo had retired to bed, Prue quietly led Andy to her to room, "finally we're alone" she whispered, dropping a kiss to his collar bone. Andy's head dipped and he took her mouth, "this reminds of our Prom" he grinned when the kiss broke.
Prue smiled wickedly, and kissed him back, "we never made it to our prom".
"I know," The two stood at the door kissing until the need to moment further teased at their brains. "I'll be right back" Prue told him, leaning against her door, "I just have to tidy up". Carefully her hand twisted the knob and she backed inside.
"What a sty" she moaned, gazing at her disheveled room. "Merry Maids to the Rescue," Waving her hand, Prue quickly tossed a pile of laundry into the closet, and closed the dresser drawers. She then quickly lit several scented candles and smoothed the comforter on her bed. "There" she said finally taking one last look at herself in the mirror. She ran the brush through her long raven hair one more time and applied fresh lip-gloss, "now I'm ready"
"Andy?" Prue poked her head out the door to find him gone. Hearing voices she padded down the hall finding Andy in Phoebe's room. Phoebe was sitting on the bed, hugging her pillow. Andy was standing at the foot of her bed with his hand leaning on the footboard
"I wish you could meet Cole," she told Andy wistfully, "I really think the two of you would get along" A demon and a bounty hunter. Prue didn't think so.
"From what you've told me, it sounds like he makes you very happy" Andy replied simply.
"Ahem," Prue clear her throat catching her attention, "How about making me happy?"
"I was just talking to Phoebe, she was telling about Cole" Andy moved to Prue's side pulling into his arms.
"Go" Phoebe waved her arm playfully as she were giving her permission, "By all means go make my sister happy and go do whatever that x-rated thing is the two of you are planning to do"
"See ya Phoebe" Andy quipped softly as Prue tugged him from the room.
"Bye Andy" Phoebe flopped back onto her back, "I so wish Cole and I were them right now"
"Wish we were who?" Cole asked shimmering in. Phoebe sat back up quickly, her face beaming. "Cole!"
Back in Prue's room she and Andy stood face-to-face, fingers hooked and grinning at one another, "I can't believe I don't know where to begin. It's not like we haven't done this before." Prue's heart was hammering so hard she felt as if it were literally going to jump out of her chest.
Sensing her hesitation, Andy leaned in and kissed her cheek, "how about here or here?"
"This is nice," Prue grinned when his kisses moved to her lips. Expertly, he captured her mouth, leaving her with the sensation that she was being well kissed. Soft touches and caresses accompanied long passionate kisses, that left them both yearning for more. "Do you have any idea how much you mean to me?" she whispered when they came up for air.
"I think I'm getting the picture," he quipped letting her take his face into her hands.
"Stay with me tonight," she murmured, turning her back to him, so he could take care of her dress. Andy tugged gently on the zipper, letting two of his of fingers run down the length of her spine, "I'd forgotten how really beautiful you are"
Turning in his arms, Prue brushed up against him working the buttons on his shirt, "let me remind you"
"I thought, I was the one leading in his dance," he grinned feeling his shirt slip from his shoulders.
"You're slightly over dressed," Prue replied letting her nails rake lightly down his chest.
In all the time that I've been a witch, I've come to accept things that aren't normally possible, but I never dreamed I'd be able to be with you again" Prue said softly, "I love you Andy".
Andy smiled dropping a kiss into her sweaty bangs, "I love you too, Prue"
