I know there has been a lot of near death experiences for Prue in the last few chapters, but they're happening for a reason that will be seen soon. Sorry for the cliffhangers Pyrena, but glad to see you like it so far.

Abandoned Apartment

"Leo?" Piper said as she began to panic knowing that he could not heal the dead.

They waited several seconds and there was still no glow.

"She's going to be ok right?" Andy said as his lips quivered, trying to hold back tears. Andy was holding her head in his lap and was beginning to sob. He could not take anymore this was the third time this happened in a few months.

"I honestly don't know." Leo added as he looked up at Piper whose eyes were filled with tears.

"Leo what do you mean you can't heal the dead?" Piper asked, although it was hard to understand through her sobs. " I healed you when you were dead just a few months ago when we switched powers."

"Yes, but…" He looked up towards the sky and pulled his hands away from Prue's body.

"Leo, what are you doing?" Andy screamed when he noticed Leo pull his hands away.

" Yeah, Leo why are you giving up?" Piper asked as her face went completely white and she began losing her breath.

" I have to go." He stated as he gave a worried look to Piper and orbed away leaving them to grieve.

Heaven

Prue was walking around in the clouds when Leo orbed in front of her.

"Leo?" She walked towards him with a stunned face. " What am I doing here? I'm not dead, am I?"

" Yes technically you are, but the elders are going to fix it." He said reassuring her.

"How I'm dead Leo!"

"Yes but you died when you first received a new power so technically they have to bring you back. They have the power to but only in rare, special occasions."

"So how is this a rare/ special occasion?" She asked as the worry slowly faded from her face.

"Well I will tell them that it was unfair that you were killed. Because we'll say that you didn't know that you had astral projected and I was informed too late to come and heal you."

"Will it actually work?"

" It should, let's go." He said as he took her hand and orbed away to save her life.

Manor

Piper and Phoebe held the door open as Andy walked through carrying Prue's body.

"Where should we put her?" Andy said holding back sobs.

"I guess in her bed for now." Piper answered. " I don't want to give up yet."

" Okay." Andy said as tears streamed down his face and he began walking up the stairs leaving Phoebe and Piper alone in the foyer to cry.

"I can't believe she's gone." Phoebe said as she fell to her knees and began to sob. " Why did she have to care about me? Why did she have to hide it?"

"Knowing her, probably so you could be healed first." She's so stubborn when it comes to protecting us, she thinks it's her job."

"Yeah right how do you know this?"

"She told me when you were kidnapped." Tears were falling from Piper's eyes. "What I want to know is why Leo just stopped trying and left? I mean is he nuts!"

"Maybe it had something to do with Prue?" Phoebe asked as she began to wonder.

Prue's Bedroom

Andy sat next to the bed holding Prue's hand, looking at her lifeless body and sobbing into his hands every little while. Unable to believe this was happening again.

"Why are you always keeping secrets from me? If you had just told me I could've helped in some way." He whispered stroking her cheek. She didn't realise that when she was hurt or in this case dead it caused him more pain then dying himself. He then continued to sob into her body again, unable to control himself when suddenly a hand began to caress his hair.

"Andy." Prue managed to say in a soft whisper.

"Prue!" Andy jumped up onto the bed and pulled her on top of him, so she was being cradled in his arms. " Oh God, you're alive. But how?"

" It's a long story." Prue said with some struggle, since her body was still weak.

"Ok well tell me when you're feeling better." Andy said as he pulled her face closer and gently kissed her for several minutes, finally pulling away when he remembered her grieving sisters in the living room. "We better tell Piper and Phoebe that you know, you're alive. Because they kinda think that you're dead."

"Yeah that may be a good idea." Prue said as Andy kissed her forehead and wrapped the blanket around her.

" Do you want me to carry you?" He asked helping her to her feet.

"No, that's ok I can walk." She said as they walked out the door. Her whole body was weak, so she was using Andy as support. Andy noticed that she was in pain and gladly wrapped his arms around her for extra support.

Living Room

Piper and Phoebe were sitting on the couch sobbing into each other's shoulders. They were so pre-occupied with crying that they didn't even notice Prue wobble in with Andy until she was standing in front of them.

"Prue!" The two of them shouted as they jumped off the couch and engulfed her in a huge hug.

"Thank God you're okay." Piper sighed as she finally slightly loosened her grip on her sister.

"Yeah I'm fine, all thanks to Leo actually." Prue said as she tried to wiggle out of her sisters' tight grips, but failed.

"Leo?" They all asked looking back and forth between Prue and Leo.

"Yeah, he convinced them that it was unfair that I was killed because they gave me my new power at a horrible time, so I was unable to be healed in time by Leo."

"And before you say anything." Leo cut in knowing what Piper was about to say. "No whitelighters can't heal the dead, but the elders can in very rare circumstances."

"So this was a rare circumstance?" Phoebe asked with a very confused look.

"Yes because I blamed her death on them giving her a power when she was in great danger, then they even called me away so I wasn't able to sense her pain."

"Well I don't know how I could ever thank you." Piper said as she walked towards Leo.

"There's only one way, but it doesn't look like it will happen anytime soon." Leo said as he orbed away thinking about how Piper could possibly decide to be with Dan instead of him.

"Well I'm really beat, I think I'm going to take a bath, then go to bed." Prue said as she went up on her tips of her toes to peck Andy on the cheek. "You can join me if you want." She whispered in his ear with a little grin, understanding Andy's response by the huge smile on his face. He then wrapped his arms tightly around her waist as she turned to talk to her sisters, slowly running his thumbs along her back.

"Are you going to be okay Piper?" Prue asked as she gave her sister a sympathetic look. Being with Leo the past few days seemed to bother her quite a bit.

"Yeah I'll be fine, but I think I'm going to head over to Dan's tonight." She answered back as she made her way over to the front door and began to put her coat on. "See you tomorrow!" She yelled back as she went out the door.

"Oh great all the Halliwell women have their men tonight except me." Phoebe said as she began to make her way to the kitchen to get some coffee.

"Oh Phoebes, you'll find a guy one day that isn't a demon who wants to kill us." Prue said as she pulled away from Andy's embrace, and went to hug her little sister. "And you'll get married, all those happy things."

"Yes, okay one day I will find my perfect man. But for now you go do things I don't even want to think about with yours." She said as she walked into the kitchen.

"So are you up for a bath?" Prue asked running a finger along Andy's chest, with a playful grin on her face. He pulled her close and kissed her passionately before he pulled her into his arms and carried her up the stairs.

Several minutes later…

Prue was lying in the tub leaning against Andy as he gently stroked her arm with his soft, gentle hands.

"This moment here, is perfect." She said as she grabbed one of his hands and began to play with his fingers. "I could stay here forever, with you. The only problem is that we will eventually we will become prunes from being in the water too long."

"Me too. Right here is perfect, no demons or warlocks around to try and kill us."

"Yeah, that's been a bit of a problem lately."

"No Prue. Not a little problem, a huge problem." Prue then tilted her head up on his chest so she could see his face. "Do you know how many times I've almost lost you lately?" He said as he brushed some of her dark hair out of her face.

"Yes, three times to be exact. But it all worked out in the end."

"Well this time it almost didn't. I can't this; you know how much I love you?

"Of course Andy, I can tell by the way you treat me."

"Well then you know that I am in agony seeing you in pain, and when I see you dying, or dead. I can't handle it."

"Look Andy, usually there aren't this many near death experiences. Trust me."

"Trust you? I do trust you, but you clearly don't trust me. And don't even try to say you do. If you did then you would at least told me that you had been stabbed earlier! I deserve to know, you and I should know everything about each other, and we shouldn't keep secrets."

"Well Andy you do know everything about me. And I was going to tell you in a few seconds after Phoebe was almost healed, I didn't think it was that bad."

"Yeah well it was bad, you died." Tears were streaming down Prue's face, and Andy's were becoming watery. "I can't live like this. It breaks my heart every time you get hurt."

"Well what do you want me to do, I can't help it that demons come after my sisters and I, and try to kill us." She wasn't able to understand why Andy was so angry; she was alive and safe right now.

"Stop being a witch. It's that simple."
