Melody rushed outside, pulling Jesse behind her.

"What's wrong?" Melody asked.

She knew something had happened from the look on Jesse's face.

"A witch was killed. She lived near us." he said.

"Oh no."

There was an uncomfortable silence as Melody followed Jesse home. She had to find out who it was.

"God, what am I going to do about Cole? I'm too afraid to tell him. What if he totally…" Melody said.

"Who's Cole?" Jesse asked, interrupting her.

"This guy I really like. He's our new handyman." Melody answered.

"Mel, there's no time for that, you gotta come with me."

Melody nodded. She knew Cole had to wait. She thought about him so much, she was afraid she'd lose focus.

When Melody arrived home, she was greeted by her pet cat, Silver.

"Hey, Silver." She said as she patted Silver.

Being a witch was hard, at times, but she had to stop whatever demon was responsible was responsible for killing Sally, the witch.

Just then the phone rang.

"Hello?" Melody said.

"It's Cole."

"Oh, hi." She said.

"You looked a little worried this afternoon. Is everything alright?" he asked.

"It…it's fine."

Cole could tell that she wasn't telling the truth. She sounded uneasy.

"Actually Cole, can you come over to my house, now. I live at 1322 Alfred Street. I need to talk to you."

"Oh, okay, I'll be there in a sec." Cole said.

When she hung up the phone, Jesse asked "Who was that?"

"Cole, I asked him to come over."

"Wait Melody…are you crazy! You can't invite a stranger here! What if he exposes us! He angrily said.

"Let me handle this. I have a good feeling about Cole. I don't know what it is, but I think he'll understand."

Jesse had left when Cole arrived.

"Come in." she said.

Then she gave Cole A gentle kiss on the cheek.

"Melody, what's wrong? You don't look so good."

"Please sit."

Cole sat down and waited.

"I need…uh; I have to tell you something." Melody stammered.

Cole placed his hand on Melody's and held it.

"Its okay, whatever it is, I will understand."

Cole felt as if he knew what was coming. He'd seen the same expression on Paige as well as Phoebe, in the early stage of their relationship.

"I don't know where to begin." Melody said "just tell me what you want to say."

Cole waited some time for her to begin. He knew he had to be patient.

"I'm…I'm a witch." Melody finally said. "If you want to run, please do so now, because I can understand if you don't want to see me anymore." Melody whispered.

"No, I do." Cole answered, pulling her into his embrace. "I already lost too much, I'm not going to lose you either."

Melody wondered what he meant as she hugged him back.

"I used to know three powerful witches, The Charmed Ones." Cole said.

He told Melody who he really was and what happened to him, as if he could trust her.

"Wow, you've been through so much." Melody said.

"But I'm lucky because I met you."

"The reason I had to leave this afternoon was because my brother, Jesse, told me about a witch that used to live near here, was killed."

"Maybe I can help you. Have you ever tried scrying?"

"No, what's that?"

"Get a crystal and a map."

Melody got a map and laid it on the table. Cole patiently showed her how to scry for a demon.

Melody had the most magical time with Cole, even though they were trying to figure out who killed the witch. She felt like the happiest person alive.
