AN: First, let me thank everyone for reviewing! I love reading what you think. Now, it's obvious that you guys really don't mind the rate I'm updating at, and sorry lately I've been slower. I usually give about an hour per chapter and lately it's been hard to find that hour.

Most of you liked last chapter (judging only by your reviews), but someone pointed out they were acting like they are 16. Muse-of-the-fairies, when you said that, did you direct it at Piper and Leo, Big Man and agent Lutgin, or just the whole chapter? Sorry you didn't like that last chapter; I hope you like this one better and don't forget to answer my question in your review.

Also, I'd like to share with you all that I've written the first two chapters of my next fic (didn't post them yet, I'll post the first chapter with the last chapter of this fic). It's a Piper/Leo one, though it has lots of sisterly relationship (in a way it hasn't been used before, I think). It's very different from this fic (tho not a teen fic, just if you're wandering). But if you like this one I'm sure you will like my next one as well. I might post a few lines from it with the next chapter, or the chapter after that.

Don't worry, this fic has still god a few chapters to go (at least 3). Anyway, enjoy this one!

Chapter 30

OoO Broken Promise OoO

Leo stirred uncomfortably from side to side, feeling like he is looking for something.

Finally he realized as he opened his eye that Piper is missing from under his arm, and looked around for any sign of her.

He set up to see if she was anywhere around, and was a bit overwhelmed to see his surroundings.

It took him a few moments to remember that they are staying at a hotel.

He heard muffled noise from the bathroom where the door was closed, and realized the noise sounded an awful lot like gagging.

He got up and pulled his pants on his bare legs, scratched his stomach yawning, and walked to knock on the bathroom door, just as he heard the toilet flushing.

"Piper?"

"Be right out!" She called a couple of seconds later.

"You ok in there? You don't sound so good." He said, leaning his head closer to the door.

Seconds later, the door yanked open and Leo almost fell into the bathroom right on Piper who was coming out.

"Sorry." He said, steadying himself.

"I'm fine, don't worry." She said, and made her way back towards the bed.

"Is that normal?" He asked, pointing at the toilet.

She got under the covers and nodded.

"First three months are hell. It gets better." She stated, putting her head back on the pillow.

She obviously wasn't interested in talking, and Leo felt it was his fault.

He wasn't the least understanding or supportive about what she told him the previous night, and he felt bad for that.

But he still couldn't say he was thrilled. He wasn't sure how he felt about it, it was all so sudden and he had no idea what to do with it.

Striping his pants back off, he got back into bed.

Piper was having a hard time too, he could tell. He knew very well her experience with pregnancy and having a baby and knew how hard it must have been for her.

She was laying on the edge of the bed, her back to him.

He brought his arm around her, trying to get closer but she didn't even move.

"I'm sorry." He tried.

"What for?" She asked coldly. He wished things were different.

He should have defiantly reacted differently the previous day.

"How far along are you?" He asked instead.

"About a month and a half." She answered flatly.

He propped himself up on his elbow to see her. Her fist was clutching the end of her pillow, and Leo felt like hurting himself.

"Any news on your father?" She asked suddenly, changing the subject.

"Nothing. Those bastards won't say a thing. Though I think I'll be able to break Junior."

"Are you going there today?"

"Probably." He answered. Then he understood where this was going.

"Don't worry; there are three police officers outside our door, two in the lobby and another three walking around the hotel. No one is getting to you; you can have my word for it." He assured her, and placed a kiss on her closest cheek to him.

"You'll be ok, right? And I promise I'll be back for lunch so we can talk about... this."

"There is nothing to talk about Leo; I told you I am having this baby." She stated.

"And I won't even think of trying to stop you. But we still have to talk." He kissed her again, and without hoping to get any sympathy back he got up and changed into new fresh clothes.

"I'll see you soon Piper." He said, and left.

---OoO---

Piper turned to see the door close behind Leo and sighed.

She desperately wanted some time to herself; there was so much she needed to sort out for herself before she could have any conversations with anyone.

Hoping that the nagging nausea would go away, she took a long shower and got into comfortable clothes.

After half an hour of sitting with no purpose in front of the TV screen she decided to go down to the hotel cafeteria and maybe get something to eat- or drink. Eating seemed a little uneasy to think about at the moment.

When she walked out of the room she saw not three, but four men dressed in police uniform standing in the hall.

"Morning Miss Halliwell." One of them grated, and Piper smiled.

"You don't mind if one of us accompanies you to wherever you are headed, just for safety." Another said.

"Not at all, thank you."

"I'll go." The same officer said a beat to fast. He got into the elevator after Piper, and walked out behind her as she walked into the big lobby.

She made her way to the cafeteria, while the guy 'guarding' her went off to the side and took a seat at another table, keeping his eyes on her.

She had some tea which she drank very slowly, deep in thought.

After she was done with her third cup in a row, she got up and headed to the bathroom, at first not noticing the guard fallowing after her.

What, do these guys go to the bathroom with you too? She thought to herself, and figured he would just wait from afar.

In the lady's, she walked into one of the cabins and locked the door behind her.

A toilet flushed in the cabin next to her, then there was running water and the sound of a paper behind pulled out, then the someone walked out of the bathroom leaving her alone.

She closed her eyes and sighed, tired of feeling sorry for herself but unable to stop it.

She felt like the whole world was against her, and suddenly she had to fight it all.

Minutes later she walked out of the cabin and went to wash her hands.

The door to the restroom opened and she hardly noticed, not bothering to turn and look who came in.

It was only when she heard the steps of whoever came in stop that she turned to see.

It was quite a bit of a shock when she realized that the someone was the guard, and he had a gun in his hand.

"You can't come into the lady's you know." She told him, while actually knew exactly that he wasn't in the bathroom to protect her.

She saw the smile wrinkle his face, and started panicking.

She felt the sensation of deja-vu, and knew it was leading to nothing good.

"Wait... wait, please..." She was walking backwards as he was heading her way, playing with the gun in his hand.

She tried to blink away tears, but he was coming at her, and she was scared as hell.

Damn Leo, he said 'No one is getting to you; you can have my word for it'... What good is his fucking word now?

She felt her back collide with the cold wall of the restroom, and knew there was no where to run.

Only one thing left to do...

"HEEEELP!!! HEELP!!! HE..." She screamed, until his hand came to cover her mouth, and she started struggling to get out of his hold, but his other hand came to press her neck into the wall.

She was gasping for breath, her hands trying to push him away, but she knew she couldn't hold for long, and her lungs were unable to fight any longer.

She then felt his hands let her go, but instead of trying to get away she slid down to the floor.

Suddenly remembering, she put one of her hands on her stomach. Oh god, oh no...

With her vision only half usable, she saw the doors to the bathroom open and two or three (or more) policemen ran in, but they fell back to the ground seconds later, shot from her direction where her choker was standing.

Someone else ran into the room.

"Come on... let's go..." She heard the muffled voices above her, then someone lifted her up and through her on his shoulder.

She wanted to fight him, but felt no strength in her.

If only she will stay awake, she will be ok, she'd get her strength back soon... just need to stay awake, just stay awake...

And then there was nothing.

---OoO---

Leo's heard skipped a beat when he saw the police cars around the hotel.

No one was coming in or out, and it was obvious that something had happened; he just prayed it had nothing to do with Piper.

He ran into the building and found where the commotion was coming from- the cafeteria.

"What is this?" Leo asked one of their 'guards', raising his voice over the crowd.

"Leo! We've been trying to reach you."

"What happened?" Leo insisted, already feeling he knows what is going on.

"One of the cops wasn't a cop." He said.

"What did he do to her?!" Leo asked with rage.

"Now, Leo, try not to keep it together..." The officer started, looking up at Leo concerned, but at the moment Leo couldn't give a damn.

"Where is she?!" He asked even louder, attracting some attention to the two of them.

"He grabbed her and shot two of our men." He said.

"Fuck. Fuck, fuck..." Leo ran his hand through his hair, and tried to take a deep breath but couldn't.

It was happening again, his goddamn father succeeded once again to get what he wanted.

Leo knew he wasn't going to pull the blackmailing game again. He was out to hurt her this time.

"Did anyone see them?" Leo hissed to the officer.

"The ones who saw them were shot."

"You have fucking ten people around this building and no one was able to actually watch Piper?!" Leo asked, pushing the urge to beat the crap out of the man in front of him.

"We thought he was a cop. He probably walked to the bathroom with her and by the time our guys got there he's already put her down."

"Put her DOWN? He killed her?" Leo asked, choking on his words.

"No, no... but he took her with him. We're already searching in the aria, and we have a hot watch on the airports so they can't take her far." The officer explained.

Damn it. How did he let this happen?

He remembered very well telling her that nothing will happen, he promised her she was safe.

Leo had no idea what his next step was aught to be.

His father once again had something so valuable to him, and all he could do is sweat.
