Eternal flame
TrueLoveLivesForever - Honestly, I can't wait to see how everything turns out at the end, but it's still a long way there. I'm glad U liked last chap. Here's new one...
PhoebeColelovers - That chapter hurt me, too, but it would just be boring if they would be happy all the time. Yes, Phoebe is still pregnant with Cole's child, and Nina... you'll see. P.S. I always wanted to give Cole a hug. I totally love him.
Siamese - Of course Jason is a jerk! And Pheebs doesn't believe him anymore. The only thing she believes him about is the angel of death and that's why he's staying in the Manor. Right now, Phoebe is afraid of him. And I totally agree about killing Nina, but I won't tell you what will happen 2 her, you'll see... :)
Blue eyes6 - Phoebe gave up on Cole because she felt betrayed, torn and broken. It'll last for awhile before she gains back her faith. She won't fell in Jason's hands, though. Don't worry.
sehar - Your idea of Cole&Phoebe make up is great. But, I can't use it now, since Phoebe is in 5th month of pregnancy, so she doesn't want 2 sleep with anyone 'till she gives birth. By the way, do U mind if I use that idea in one of my future chapters?
GoldenLyre - Thnx 4 reviewing. Here's more, so keep reading... and reviewing.
mcgirl - Jason and Phoebe didn't really sleep together, so she can't get pregnant with his baby. She is still pregnant with Cole's babies. And about the spell and Cole... You'll find the answers in this chap.
Chapter 14 - Torn
Phoebe was in Piper's room, sleeping, when she heard a knocking on the door. "Come in!" she yelled and Cole came in.
"Pheebs, I'm sorry for waking you up. I just want to tell you I'm going to underworld, I have to find something out." Cole told her. She stared at him. "And I'm not here to have your blessing, I'm just here to inform you. I have to save our marriage at all costs."
"Marriage?" Phoebe asked. "Cole, there is no marriage anymore. We've been separated for over a month. Is that marriage? I don't think so."
"Phoebe, I told you that I didn't even expect to get your blessing and support. I just wanted to tell you where I'm about to go. I'll get back when I get all answers. And please, avoid Jason no matter what." he walked over to her and kissed her forehead. "Take care."
He turned around, but Phoebe grabbed his hand, and he turned to look at her. She looked at him and reached out to kiss him. Cole kissed her back. He desperately wanted to kiss her lips ever since they broke up. It felt so good feeling her essence and her touch on his skin.
Phoebe than stopped kissing him and turned around. "I'm sorry." she whispered.
Cole kneeled next to her bed. "Do you love me, Phoebe?" he asked.
"What question." Phoebe looked at him and rolled her eyes. "Don't you know the answer, Cole? Of course I love you, but I don't feel the same with you. Nothing will ever change the fact that you slept with Nina and that you did it willingly."
"Phoebe, not again." Cole whispered. "I would never sleep with any girl willingly, if that girl isn't you." he finished and Phoebe smiled. "Please, Phoebe, don't give up on us."
"Too late, Cole." Phoebe said. "Even though my heart is braking apart, I must tell you that there's no us, Cole. That bitch destroyed it. Next time, think twice before you sleep with someone." she whispered sadly.
"I didn't do it willingly, and I'll prove it to you." Cole said. "I love you, sweetie." he placed a light kiss on her lips and shimmered away.
Phoebe's eyes filled with tears that slowly started gliding down her cheeks. "I love you, too Cole." she said, though she knew that he can't hear her. "You are the love of my life and the father of my babies. I love you so much..." she finished and put her head back on the pillow. Just a minute later, she fell asleep.
Cole shimmered in underworld and looked around. He saw Nina talking to a demon. "Ah, Nina." he whispered sarcastically.
Nina saw him and said something like "I have to go." to the demon and left him alone. He walked over to Cole with her famous seductive smile. "Hi, honey." she said and Cole tried his best not to throw an energy ball at her. "Guess what - I'm pregnant." she said.
"Guess what?" Cole imitated her. "I don't care. Was that your plan? To get pregnant and destroy my marriage?" he asked.
"Of course." she said. "So, how are your little bitch and her brats?"
Cole grabbed her throat and looked at her with eyes full of hate. "Say that again, and I swear that I'll forget that you're pregnant and vanquish you!" he yelled. "How did you do it, Nina?" he asked her, trying to calm down. "A spell? A potion?"
"A ritual." Nina smiled. "It was very easy. You know, I never felt so good like I felt that night. It was really magical."
"Right. A ritual..." Cole said. "Thanks." he added. "That's all I need to know." he shimmered away.
---
He shimmered in Phoebe's room. When Phoebe saw shimmers, she kicked him and Cole hit the wall. "Cole!" she yelled. Cole looked at her and smiled. "Oh, my God!" she ran to him. His arm was bleeding. "I'm so sorry, I just didn't expect that you'll be back so fast."
"Don't worry." Cole said. He was still lying on the floor and Phoebe was sitting next to him. "I would be willin' to bleed to death, if it's you who caused it." he smiled. "So, how are you?"
"How am I?" Phoebe looked at him, her eyes wide open. "Cole, you're bleeding because I was stupid enough to kick you, and you're asking me how am I?"
"Well, honey, you're pregnant." Cole explained with smile.
"Please, stop smiling." Phoebe said and Cole looked at her, not really realizing what is she trying to say. "That seductive smile of yours is driving me crazy, and you know it." she explained. Cole smiled even more. "COLE!" she yelled frustrate and found his pull almost unbearable.
"What?" Cole asked. "Want to kiss me?" he teased.
"No, it's just..." Phoebe looked aside, trying to find a perfect lie, but she couldn't "Okay, I do! I admit it!" she sighed. "But, I won't do it simply because I don't wanna get hurt... for like a hundred and first time." she added.
"I promise that one kiss won't hurt." Cole joked and than used his healthy hand to get up and kiss her. Through that kiss, he actually tried to make her understand that he can't live or breath without her. "If she doesn't realize it this way, I'll just have to make her realize in the hard way - I'll shimmer her to Nina, so she can tell her everything." Cole thought.
Phoebe pulled away when she realized that they kissed. "Cole, don't." she said, looking at him.
"Okay, as you wish." Cole replied. "Will you please come with me, than?" he asked.
"Where?"
"You'll see." he grabbed her hand and they shimmered in the underworld, and Phoebe saw Nina sitting on one rock, obviously thinking about something. "Nina." Cole called and she than noticed that Cole and Phoebe shimmered right in front of her.
"Hi, my love." she said seductively, looking at Cole while speaking. "I see you brought a bitch. Oooops." she said when she saw the look on his face. "I meant witch." she apologized, but still made it clear that she didn't mean that at all.
"Nina, I want you to repeat in front of Phoebe everything you told me earlier this morning." Cole said, his eyes focused on Phoebe.
"I can't make the witch to forgive him, 'cause than they'll get back together" Nina thought quickly "Or, they won't? Of course!" the solution to her problem just hit her "Witches are all sensible and stupid. If I just make it look like my son will be alone and helpless if Cole leaves our side, she won't want him back!"
"Say it, Nina." Cole repeated slowly.
"Okay." Nina agreed, and than looked at Phoebe. "I used a ritual to make your husband sleep with me. And I'm sorry I did that now." she said and Phoebe rolled her eyes. "I know that you don't trust me, but I'm really sorry. Now... I got pregnant." she pretended she was terrified. Phoebe's face lit up when she heard that Nina is pregnant.
"So, wasn't that the plan?" Phoebe asked, trying to stay calm.
"No. I just wanted to sleep with him, nothing else." Nina was having a really hard time not to laugh. Her eyes filled with tears from the effort she did to prevent herself from laughing, but Phoebe thought that it was from fear of guilt.
"Oh, dive me a brake!" Cole yelled. "Nina, you're a horrible liar."
"I mean it, Cole!" Nina yelled. "I just wanted to sleep with you, and now I got pregnant. I don't know what to do. The Source won't let me abort, he wants the child to born and he wants me to raise it. I'm so afraid. I can't raise a baby on my own, I don't know how to do it."
"Maybe you don't, but I do." Phoebe said, and Nina and Cole looked at her. "You could probably raise your baby with it's father's help."
"No... WHAT?" Cole yelled. Was that just his imagination or the love of his life just said that he should stay with a seductive demonic bitch to raise her baby with her?
"I have my sisters, my brother-in-law and my friends to help me raise our babies, but Nina doesn't have anybody to help her out." Phoebe concluded. "You should help her out, Cole."
"Are you insane?" Cole looked at Phoebe and saw that strange distance in her eyes. It was the same distance he saw on the day appeared at the door of her house long time ago.
"No, I'm perfectly sane." Phoebe replied. "After all, that is your child, too. You can still see our babies, of course. But, it is your obligation to stay next to Nina in this moment. You should have thought about the consequences before you actually slept with her."
"PHOEBE!" Cole yelled, but she shimmered away. "Damn it!" he yelled.
Phoebe sat in her room and cried. She looked at her CD's and took one in her hand. She put it in computer and than she heard one song that truly explained her feelings in the moment.
"I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm
He came around like he was dignified"
She smiled when she heard that part. It reminded her of the first time they met. She never forgot that moment. She was expecting some boring old man to some and starts questioning her and Prue, and in fact she got the Assistant District Attorney with the most beautiful smile and the most magical eyes in the world.
"He showed me what it was to cry."
Than she looked in the mirror and realized that Cole really showed her what it was to cry.
"Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Seem to care what your heart is for"
Yup. Cole's heart was for her and she knew it. Than how could she let that bitch seduce him?
"But I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
The conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine I'm torn.
-
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor."
Well, she didn't really lay naked on the floor, but she defiantly felt like it. She let Cole down when she gave up on him again. She let her sisters down when she made them think that Cole would never do anything to hurt her, 'cuz he did. She even let herself down when she let Cole stay with that bitch.
"Illusion never changed
Into something real."
Of course. She always dreamed of her and Cole as a perfect couple with no troubles. But, that was just an illusion, and she knew it. It never changed into something real, because if it did, she wouldn't be so alone and helpless in this moment.
"I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn."
It was too late now. Cole was sorry, but it was just too late. She was already broken, and she already decided to make him stay where he belongs - in underworld, with his demonic lover and his baby.
"So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light."
"Just substitute the word fortune teller with Prue, and that's it." she thought. "She never really liked Cole and she always knew he'll hurt me like this in the end. Why didn't I just listen to her? She warned me so many times."
"It crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care
I had no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch I'm torn."
The part with 'I had no luck' is true. She really had no luck. But the 'I don't care part' wasn't true at all, because she really did care. She just couldn't believe that they ended up like this.
One thing was certain - she was really torn.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
