Peanut2lb: Prue will not meet Bane until the end of this chapter, and that will just be to fight him, so she won't really have a reaction to him! Thanks for the compliments! I'm kinda glad you don't have a thing for ripping out hearts! lol
CuteLittleBritt: Thanks for all the compliments! There is more Prue and Andy moments coming up! By the end of this fic it won't be 'poor Piper and Leo' anymore, but that's all I'm gonna say! So happy about what you told me about your fic!
The-Cheese-Fairy: Thanks for the compliments! In the show Piper is very responsible, even though she isn't the eldest sister, so I'm gonna try and bring out the irresponsible Piper every now and again, starting with a little bit while she's Hellfire! Hope everything goes okay with school!!
Fear and Proposing:
Phoebe walked down to the kitchen to find a note from Piper,
"Bane has invited me to brunch, lots of love Piper," she read, it had only been yesterday that Piper had come with the plan of her pretending to be Ms. Hellfire, but Phoebe feared her sister was in great danger.
Across town, Piper nibbled at the food Bane had bought her, he was talking but she wasn't listening, she was focused on his bright eyes, his tanned skin and masculine features. Even though the brunette witch was already having trouble with Leo and Dan, she couldn't help but feel tempted by Bane, but when he reached out and cupped her cheek in his smooth hands she gave in and leaned across the table, planting a deep kiss onto his lips.
"Wow," he said after their lips parted, he was about to kiss her when she realized how much of a mistake she was making and shoved a sausage into his mouth,
"I won't eat it all," she said with a fake smile and patting her stomach. Bane bit into the sausage and then held it forward for Piper to also take a bite, she held her head back and said,
"oh no, germs, I don't like germs."
"That's funny, germs didn't bother you when you were kissing me," he said, dropping the sausage on his own plate and wiping his hands on a napkin,
"well…" Piper said, she was trying to think of a smart answer but didn't know what to say, you could only live with Phoebe for so long without some of her 'slowness' rubbing off onto you, "well you see my sister Phoebe, she's a completely obsessed with hygiene and tidiness, so she'd never forgive me if she found out I was eating food someone else had eaten." Bane gave her a smile and she smiled back, but their tender moment was broken by the outburst of ringing,
"I've gotta go," Bane said after answering his mobile phone,
"okay," she said, he gave her a kiss on the cheek and left,
"excuse me, miss, your bill," he waiter said handing Piper the receipt, she put some of the money Bane had given her on the small tray, not caring if it was too much, and slowly walked from the restaurant, daydreaming of her moment with Bane.
"Phoebe! Help!" yelled Prue's voice from the attic, Phoebe ran up the stairs to find Prue standing next to a pile of objects,
"my baby is conjuring everything," the oldest sister said,
"well can't you get rid of them?" Phoebe asked,
"no, you're the magic expert, you try," Prue replied as a bright blue teddy bear appeared in her hand,
"just because I've decided to become a full time witch, it does not make me 'the magic expert'," Phoebe said.
"Maybe grams can help?" Prue said, and then she began to call out, "grams! grams!"
"I think you'll need to use this spell," Phoebe said, Prue cast the summoning spell and watched as a flutter of golden twinkles brought their grams before them,
"finally, I was beginning to think you'd never find that spell," grams smiled, then she became corporeal and gave her eldest and youngest granddaughters a hug, "hello my darlings," she said.
"Well I'm gonna go call Piper," Phoebe said, jogging downstairs,
"what is the problem?" grams asked sweetly,
"my baby, I can't control her power," Prue replied,
"well, have you been exercising your own powers daily?" grams asked, Prue shook her head, "then that's where we shall begin, I will move some things at you and you must use your own power to stop them," she continued. Prue didn't realise how fast her grandmother's telekinesis was, much more advanced than her own, when a cloth flew towards her, Prue tried to move the cloth away but instead a lily materialised in her hand,
"I see your problem," grams said, "it would appear your baby's a lover not a fighter,"
"well how do I make her a fighter?" Prue questioned,
"use her power to vanquish a demon," grams replied.
Later that day, Piper was sitting in Hellfire's home when Bane let himself in,
"are you ready?" he asked,
"I sure am," she replied, the middle charmed one stood up and Bane's jaw dropped when he saw her in the outfit she had picked to wear. It was a leather mini dress with stiletto black boots, her hair had bits of blonde braided into it and the diamond necklace he had given her was around her neck,
"you look amazing," he complimented, "Barbas said he'll meet us outside the Halliwell's." Piper felt her stomach in the back of her throat Barbas! The demon of fear! she said to herself,
"I thought we were going to that club across town you mentioned? that's why I got all dressed up," she said,
"we are, but that's for after we kill them," Bane replied, he helped Piper put the fur coat she had chosen on and led her outside.
"Piper just left a message on the machine, she's coming here with Bane…and Barbas," Phoebe told Prue,
"what? Barbas?" Prue said,
"yeah, apparently he's Bane's boss, that's why Hellfire had the hit list, remember the whole thing with Barbas, Friday 13th, dead witches," Phoebe replied,
"well what are we gonna do?" Prue asked, her voice was full of concern,
"this is a great opportunity to do what I said, use your baby's power, conjure Barbas' worst fear," grams said. Before they could say anything else the front door slammed open and Piper and Bane walked into the house,
"where's Barbas?" she asked,
"he'll be here soon," Bane replied. Phoebe ran down the stairs and kicked Bane in the stomach, head, and shins, then grams joined her and through him into the wall with her power,
"well what have we got here?" snarled a familiar voice, then Barbas appeared next to Piper, "you fear that your secret about not being the real Ms. Hellfire will be revealed, well guess what, the secret's out," he laughed. Piper tried to freeze him but her power had been paralyzed after he had uncovered her fear,
"and you," he said turning to Prue, "you fear that your baby will not be safe from the likes of me," before he could do anything more Prue held out her hand a vial appeared in it,
"I'm pretty sure I know your fear," she said, letting the vial smash on the floor, releasing the vanquishing potion and making Barbas explode. At that moment Andy entered the house with Darryl,
"Bane Jessup, you're under arrest," Darryl said Andy watched as his partner handcuffed Bane and took him away.
"So, did being Ms. Hellfire help you sort things out?" Phoebe asked,
"nope, if anything it made things even more confusing, Bane was in love with her and the reason I took the chance to pose as her was to get away from more than one person being in love with me," Piper replied,
"I thought it was to find out why she was trying to kill us?" Prue asked, Piper gave her a 'you know what I mean' look.
"Well I guess I should be going, unless you think that you're still going to lose control of your baby's power?" grams said, looking at Prue,
"no, your idea worked perfectly, I think we're expecting a little fighter," Prue replied with a smile, Andy put his arm around her and they watched as grams disappeared from sight.
"Prue, there's one thing I want to ask you," Andy said, while he spoke he took a small box from his pocket and got down on one knee, "will you marry me?" Prue stood staring in shock, then a piece of paper appeared in her hand, Andy took it and read what it said, "y-e-s,"
"yes," Prue repeated, Andy slipped the beautiful diamond ring onto her finger and stood up. She jumped into his arms and he held her, Piper and Phoebe stood next to them, clapping and congratulating their sister and her new fiancé.
To be continued…
