Cole's Drunken Confession

"What?" Piper dropped her bat in surprise.

"Come on, Piper. Open up! I don't have all day!" Cole called.

Piper opened the door and immediately Cole fell into her arms.

"Ooooooh! Aren't you in a hurry?" Cole said.

Piper couldn't help but wrinkle her nose at the strong alcohol stench coming from Cole.

"How did you find me?" Piper asked as she balanced Cole on his own feet.

Cole brought a piece of paper from his pocket which Piper recognized as the paper she had written her address on for Phoebe.

"Does Phoebe know you're here?" Piper asked slowly.

Cole's eyes hardened. "Don't talk to me about her! Who does she think she is? She can't play people!" Cole wobbled.

Cole walked over to the back of Piper's sofa. He leaned against it and tilted his head. Piper walked towards him. Cole grabbed Piper.

"Tonight's just you and me!" Cole smiled.

"NO, Cole! You don't know what you're doing?" Piper gently pushed Cole away.

Apparently Piper didn't know exactly how strong her push was and Cole flipped over the sofa and fell on his back at the other side.

Piper ran around the sofa to where Cole lay. He wasn't moving.

"Oh no! Cole please get up!" Piper gently shook Cole.

Cole didn't stir. Piper placed her ear near Cole's chest. She then heard light snores coming from him. He was asleep!!

Piper got up in surprise. Should she call Phoebe? She didn't even have her number. She didn't think about getting it. Besides, Cole didn't seem to want to see her.

Piper half-dragged, half-carried Cole to her bed. She lay him down and then pulled off his shoes. Piper closed the door half way and then walked towards her couch. Piper sighed as she sat down. She just had the man she loved so close to her. Piper sighed before slowly falling asleep on her sofa.

Piper woke up with a bad crick in her neck. The sun was shining through her large windows. Piper stood up and stretched out. It was then that Piper remembered that Cole was here. Piper took a peek into her bedroom. Cole was still asleep. Piper smiled as she went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Piper smiled at herself. For some reason, she felt happy and fresh. Piper walked into her room. Cole was still sleeping. Piper laid a glass of water and some aspirin on the bedside table. Piper closed the bedroom door and started making breakfast.

Piper had just finished making her special pancakes when she heard a knock at the door. Piper arched her brow with confusion. Who could it be, so early in the morning? Piper placed her pancakes on the stove under warm, so they wouldn't cool off.

Piper opened the door and was surprised to see who was there.
