Prue Halliwell marched into her office at Buckland Auction House, She was met by Jack Sheridan, her newly appointed partner in her job as an appraiser and her boyfriend. She and Jack hadn't got off to the best start, she actually hated him at first, he was annoying and rude, but he dialled down and she found he was actually quite charming, with his spiky blonde hair, cheeky grin and sharp work suits, he wasn't the type she'd usually go for but what the hell, it was working out alright, just alright.

"hey, Claire's looking for you, the Marshall exhibition was supposed to be appraised yesterday and -"

"wait, you we're supposed to tell them that i moved their appointment to this afternoon" Prue interrupted, she sat down behind her desk

"no, we agreed that i would cover for you today if you took care of Mrs. Marshall's items yesterday" Jack insisted "look Prue, honey, i don't wanna argue but-"

"alright, well you find Claire and explain the situation and I'll try to get rid of this awful headache" She closed her eyes tightly

"fine, hope you feel better" Jack tried to kiss her but she was resisting so he rubbed her thigh with his hand and left.

Prue opened her eyes to her empty quiet office. A million thoughts filled her mind all of a sudden, including breaking up with Jack, which she had been planning to do for a long time now but had never got round to it. They we're so different, there was no passion, no excitement, yeah there we're a few laughs from time to time but she wanted so much more.

Then the most familiar and most dangerous thought overtook her mind. Cole.

She had been thinking about her sisters half-demon boyfriend for a while now, during the days, late at night, she had even dreamed of him on more than one occasion. But she never did anything about it, He was Phoebe's which meant he was definitely off limits, forbidden. So Prue intentionally gave the impression that she hated Cole, which she did, in a way. But his sexy appearance and dangerous persona was so hypnotising that every time she looked at him she felt a warm sense of comfort and passion overtake all her senses. Pure lust.

Claire appeared in the doorway, the images escaped Prue's mind as she attempted to salvage an explanation for the Marshall appraisal situation.
