4:00 P.M
Piper was sitting in the chair that was in her room with her feet dangling off the arm and her head resting on the other one. She was talking to Cole on the phone.
"I wanted to ask you something." Cole asked shyly.
Piper laughed at his nervousness. "Sure. You can ask me anything."
"Would you like to go out to dinner with me tonight?" He asked praying she would say yes.
"You mean like a date?" She asked him nervously.
Cole felt his mouth go dry and his stomach go in knots. 'Calm down, Turner! She didn't say she didn't want to go!' He scolded him himself mentally. "Yeah, a date."
"Cole, I think if I went out with you then we would be going too fast. I mean, we might end up sleeping together. We never really had a normal date or anything when it didn't end up that way. I'm not ready for that yet." She said truthfully.
Cole let out a laugh. "Piper, we never had a date before."
Piper smiled through the phone. "Yeah, but we slept together twice."
"I promise we won't do anything you don't want to do. And if all you want is dinner then that is perfectly fine."
Piper smiled. "OK, ask me again." Cole smiled to himself and asked her the question again.
"Yes, I would love to go out with you tonight." She said. "I'll pick you up at 7:00." He said.
"Where are we going?" She questioned curiously.
"It's a surprise. All I'll tell you is that it's very romantic and fancy. You deserve it."
"Well I better go get ready for our date then. Bye Cole." She said. Cole said his good-byes.
Piper let out a happy squeal and ran to the bathroom to take a shower. She came back out 30 minutes later wearing a bathrobe and her hair already blow dried.
She sat down at her vanity dresser and applied her make-up and curled her hair and put it half-way up leaving some hair hanging down at her shoulders. Afterwards, she went to her closet and searched for the perfect dress for her date.
Not being able to find one, she called for Paige to help her. Paige orbed into Piper's bedroom and saw her sister standing in front of her closet with her hands on her hips and a frustrated look upon her face.
"What's going on?" She asked. Piper turned around to face her sister. "Can you help me find a dress. I have a date with Cole tonight."
"Sure." Paige went through her closet and found in the back a black silk dress with a v-neck and spaghetti straps. The dress went a little below her knees. "How's this one?" Paige asked holding it up.
"I forgot I even had this. It's perfect for tonight! Thank you!" Piper exclaimed hugging her sister. Paige then left so her sister could finish preparing for her date.
After Piper had changed she heard a knock on her door. "Come in!" She said standing in front of a mirror checking over her looks one last time.
The door opened and in walked Andy. "Hey Piper!" He smiled. Piper faced Andy and a smile came to her face. "Andy, hi!" She went over and hugged him.
"Big date tonight?" He asked referring to her being dressed up. "Yeah, with Cole." Piper anwered.
Andy nodded and told her he had big news. "Did Leo tell you that he isn't your whitelighter anymore?" He asked. Piper nodded. "Well, the Elders decided that they want me to be your new whitelighter!"
Piper broke out into a huge grin and hugged Andy. "This is so great! I can't wait to tell Paige and Phoebe!" Andy laughed.
"I wanted to be the one to tell you and not some Elder."
"I never liked them but now I guess I'm kind of warming up to them." Piper said.
"Oh yeah? How come?" He asked her.
"Because they took Leo away and gave us you. They are kind of good now I guess." Piper said laughing. Andy joined in with her.
"Well, I better get going now. I'll see you guys later!" Piper hugged him good-bye before he orbed away.
Piper went downstairs to the living room where she saw Paige making out with her new boyfriend Drew. Piper cleared her throat to get their attention. "I hate to break this up but I need to talk to Paige for a quick second." Paige groaned and followed Piper into the kitchen.
"Couldn't this wait a few hours?" Paige asked obviously annoyed now.
"I wanted to tell you something. Leo is no longer our whitelighter!" Piper said. Paige hugged her sister and told her that was great news. "The Elders have assigned us a new whitelighter. It's Andy."
"Who's Andy?" Paige asked confused.
Piper explained to her baby sister that Andy was Prue's old boyfriend but died about 4-5 years ago. She also told Paige that Andy was like a brother to her and Phoebe and that Andy was a really good guy.
"This is great Piper! I am happy we finally have a good whitelighter and you're finally happy!" Paige said hugging her sister.
"I know. Now go back to your boyfriend." Piper said.
"Ok, I will. Yours should be coming soon." Paige said teasingly.
"Paige, I don't know where me and Cole are. It's kind of confusing."
"Do you love him?" Paige asked like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Piper nodded.
"Then what's so confusing?"
Piper shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. I love being with Cole. It's just that we never had that kind of relationship where we dated and got to know each other first. We just one day got to together and soon fell in love. I guess what I'm saying is, we never really said if we were boyfriend-girlfriend."
Paige nodded understanding. "Piper, talk to him. Find out where you guys stand. Then I'm sure you will feel a lot better." Piper agreed. "Thanks."
Paige smiled. "Anytime, sis." Paige walked back out to the living room and went back to making out with Drew. Piper looked at the clock and read it was 6:00.
Piper ran back upstairs to fetch her black high heel shoes to wear. When she walked into her room she saw Phoebe sitting on her bed holding a picture of her and Cole.
"What are you doing in here Phoebe?" Piper asked coldly remember the scene at Cole's place earlier last night.
Phoebe looked up and saw Piper looking down at her. "I know you must hate me now. I'm sorry. I just felt like I needed to tell him how I felt." Phoebe said. She knew Piper was pissed at her for telling Cole she loved him.
"It's not so much that you told him you loved him. It has to do with the fact that you were that one that left him and you were the one that filed for divorce and you were the one who gave up on you guys. After all that and you have the nerve of trying to get him back into your life when you know that me and Cole are together. I know you're sorry. You're always sorry. Now you have to accept the fact that you and Cole aren't together anymore and never will be." Piper said truthfully.
"Piper, you're right. All the things you said are true. But he never gave up on us so why so I do so now?"
"He did give up! When came back he realized that every feeling he held towards you were gone. You have to move on." Piper said.
"I love Cole and I will fight for him." Phoebe said storming out of the room.
