AN: Thank you for the reviews!! I wasn't trying to portray that Piper was trying to kill herself -----ponders----- Is that what it seemed like? Anyhow, she was just trying to get the feel of the guy off of her. She wasn't saying anything that made you think suicide, right? -----worries----- Right?? Right?? -----continues to worry-----
Piper's eyes fluttered open. After a disoriented moment, she realized where she was and smiled. Leo shifted in his sleep and gripped her closer, her back against his stomach. She loved the way his skin felt against hers, warm and lithe. She loved the soft smell of him and they way his hands rested comfortably on her stomach. She licked her lips as another thought crossed her mind.
What, exactly, was this?
Was it a one night stand? Were they to be friends with benefits? Secret lovers? None of the above?
"I didn't think that you'd be here." Was the first thing out of Leo's mouth when he awoke.
"Why not?" Piper asked with genuine curiosity.
"It's not everyday that a cop fucks around with a criminal."
"Not 11:00 and you're already with the dirty talk." She joked.
"I'm serious." He said, brushing his fingertips across her abdomen. Was he wondering the same thing she was?
"Leo?" Piper began, "What was this?"
"2 adults with incredibly lengthy sex drives."
"Be serious."
"I was." He brushed a lock of hair from her face. But he was determined to try and answer her question. "What was this…I don't know Piper, you tell me."
"If I knew, don't you think I would say?" Piper felt him shrug.
Leo's hand meandered up from her midriff to the valley between her breasts and began to caress her, as he though.
Suddenly, Piper sprung up from the bed, momentarily distracting him from his thoughts.
"What's wrong?" he asked, stretching.
"I just remembered I agreed to call my sisters at 7:00 this morning."
Leo raised his eyebrows. "That seems pretty fucking early."
"Sometimes Prue woks late at Bucklands, and well, if I didn't call early, we might not be able to talk until 11:00 and buy then she's usually beat." Piper called from the bathroom. The shower drowned out her next words. After a moment, her face popped into the doorway.
"You coming or what?"
-----
Piper pulled her hair back into a high ponytail.
"Where are you going? Come back to the bed." But Leo himself was dressed casually in jeans and a t-shirt.
Piper adjusted the dark denim jacket that matched her pants as it rested over her off-the-shoulder green, low-cut shirt. "Leo, I'm meeting Manda for lunch, I told you that."
"Sometimes I forget." He shrugged, tossing his trucker hat in the air.
"I'll see you later." She kissed him and departed.
Guess he didn't have to do much to fuck her.
AN: Yes, I know this chapter was short, but I wanted to give you guys something to read. Next chapter, I'll get back to the mystery, and we'll get to see the lunch with Manda.
