Miami
After melody said yes to Cole, they started looking for the right place, for them. About a week later they found an apartment that they both agreed on and that was close to work. Now it was time for Melody to tell her brothers the news.
"What do you mean you're moving out!" they exclaimed. "You can't just leave, what if demons…"
"Demons, demons, demons, that's all I ever hear!"
"But Mel…" James started to say.
"I don't want to hear it. All my life I've fought them and stopped them, now I need my life back."
There was nothing Jesse or James could do, so they gave up.
Melody packed up most of her belongings and the rest she left, to be picked up later.
Cole was already at the apartment when Melody arrived.
As soon as Cole saw her, he kissed and hugged her tight.
"Melody! I'm so glad you're here!"
"Are you worried, baby?" she asked.
"Just a little…about Phoebe." Cole replied.
San Francisco
"So, will be alright taking care of Wyatt and Phoebe?" Piper asked Paige.
"Sure, Wyatt will be fine, but Phoebe, I'm not so sure of."
"I know. We're only going to be gone for a day, so make sure Phoebe doesn't get out of the house or she'll try to find Cole."
Paige nodded. "Have fun, you guys."
Piper and Leo decided to orb. It would save them a lot of time.
"Are you ready?" Piper asked, glancing at her watch.
They kissed Wyatt goodbye, then orbed out.
"Wish me luck with Phoebe." Paige muttered.
Miami
In almost a second, piper and Leo arrived in Miami.
"Looks like a neat place." Piper said. "I wonder if James Troy is here."
"Well he owns the bar; we should go in and see." Leo replied.
James was waiting for them when they walked in.
"Hi James, thanks for inviting us."
"Thanks for coming." James said, shaking Piper and Leo's hands.
"Before we get started I have something important to taslk to you about. Please follow me."
They walked into James' office so no one could hear their conversation.
"Do you have a sister named Phoebe?" James asked.
"Yes I do. Why do you ask?"
"My sister, Melody, was talking about a Phoebe Halliwell, Cole Turner's ex-wife."
Piper and Leo froze.
"Cole and my sister just moved in, together. Melody, who is a witch, is in love with Cole. I wanted to make certain she won't get hurt. Melody is very kind hearted and she would never do anything to hurt anyone." James said.
"I can promise you that Cole won't hurt her. Can we see him?" Piper asked.
"Sure, I'll phone him."
James came back a few minutes later.
"Cole will be here in ten minutes."
"Oh my god! We've missed you so much!" Piper exclaimed, hugging Cole tight.
"Piper! Leo! How have you been? It's great to see you." Cole said.
When Cole first heard that Piper and Leo were in Miami, he feared Phoebe knew where he was, but James told him she didn't.
"You know Phoebe's driving us mad. She wants to know where you are. Sometimes I wish she'd move on." Piper said.
"I know Phoebe's looking for me. Well, I…"
"We know about Melody and we promise not to tell Phoebe where you are." Piper promised.
"Thank you.' Cole said.
"Are you happy here?" Leo+ asked.
"I've never been happier. Melody is amazing. She has this sensitive side that makes me feel at ease."
Piper and Leo smiled.
"We're really happy for you Cole, you deserve it." Piper said.
"Is there anything I can do? Would you like to come to the apartment?"
"Thanks, but we better get going. Phoebe will go crazy if we didn't." Leo said. "And poor Paige has to look after everything and everyone.
Piper hugged Cole on more time.
"We gotta go now, but we're still friends, right?"
"Yes we are. Thanks for doing this, for me, for not telling Phoebe." Cole said.
"No problem."
Cole watched them disappear in a white, shiny light. It was time to go home, to Melody. He couldn't wait.
