Thanks so much to all of you who reviewed! Right so I promised that if I got enough reviews I would update on Sunday and you all gave great reviews so I decided to give you all a chapter before Friday. So here you are!
Chapter 10
Time, Together and Trust
"Is she still up there?" Prue asked Paige as she walked downstairs carrying a tray of untouched tea and toast.
Paige sighed and nodded making her way into the kitchen, Prue followed her continuing the conversation, "I wonder whats wrong?" She expressed her concern for her younger sister as she sat down at the table.
"I think I know," They both looked up to see Phoebe in the doorway a dispirited look on her face.
"Well first do you want to tell us whats wrong with you?" Prue asked noticing the depressed look on Phoebe's face.
"Well they both sort of tie in together, actually," Phoebe answered allowing herself to smile faintly at the looks of confusion on Prue and Phoebe's faces, "Cole's moving," She stated simply.
"Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry," Prue immediately got up and hugged Phoebe.
Phoebe sighed, "Yeah, me too," Paige got up and joined the hug, Phoebe smiled at her knowing it was the best thing she could do; Paige wasn't very good in situations like that with words.
"So is that whats been going on with you two all week?" Prue asked coming away from Phoebe as she took a seat again.
"Yeah but we talked last night and everything is okay, well except the part where he has to leave," She answered adding the last part quietly.
Paige and Prue nodded.
"So anyway I'm guessing Leo told Piper last night," Phoebe said shaking of the sad feeling she got whenever she talked about Cole leaving.
"Why would Piper be so upset about Cole leaving, I mean I know they are friends…" Paige began but Prue nudged her, shaking her head at her.
"Hey," Paige moaned annoyed.
"Paige Leo and Cole are half brothers so if one leaves the other will be too," Prue explained giving Paige a playful hit on the back of her head.
"Oh," Paige remembered feeling quite stupid she sank back in her chair and shut up.
"Piper must be devastated," Prue said to herself more than anything then a thought occurred to her, "Well surely if Leo's moving she should be spending time with him right now,"
"She's probably shutting him out like I did at first with Cole so it won't hurt as much when he leaves, well at least that's what she'll think but it won't she'll just regret it later," Phoebe sighed remembering how she felt.
"We have to talk to her," Paige sat up in her chair, Prue held her back, "I agree someone should talk to her but I think it would be better if you did it Pheebs, you know you're going through the same thing," Prue suggested looking at Phoebe, who slowly nodded.
Phoebe gently tapped on Piper's bedroom door and hearing no answer slowly pushed the door open to reveal Piper lying on her bed her head under her pillow.
Phoebe felt her heart go out to her and silently crept over to the bed and sat down causing Piper to move her legs slightly but not sit up, "Piper," Phoebe called her name softly.
Piper sat up quickly taking Phoebe aback, her face was stained with tears, "Oh sweetie…"
"Why didn't you tell me?" Piper demanded quietly.
Phoebe looked at her puzzled but soon realised what she was talking about, "Well I was going through it myself and I really thought it would be better coming from Leo,"
Piper's demanding face softened and she looked down, "It would be better if it wasn't true," She whispered.
"I know sweetie, I know," Phoebe soothed hugging Piper.
"I'm really going to miss him, I can't imagine not seeing him all the time," Piper croaked new tears springing to her eyes.
Phoebe nodded, knowing if she spoke she would end up crying too and she was trying so hard to be strong for Piper, she held her tightly again and they remained that way for a while.
"We're wasting time you know," Phoebe letting go off Piper and looking at her, "We should be with Leo and Cole right now,"
"Why?" Piper asked bluntly, "I mean they are just going to leave anyway. We might as well get used to it,"
Phoebe shook her head at Piper, "You don't want to end things like this with Leo, you'll only regret it when he's gone," Phoebe said gently, "He's hurting too you know, he loves you as much as you love him,"
Piper nodded weakly.
Phoebe looked at her, "So you're…"
Piper jumped off the bed already dressed in the clothes she was wearing the night before but she didn't seem bothered.
"Where are you going?" Phoebe asked.
"To see Leo," Piper answered walking out the room.
Phoebe took a second watching her leave then quickly jumped off the bed too, "Wait I'll come with you," And she ran after Piper.
They walked the short walk to Cole and Leo's house.
"Pheebs, thanks," Piper said smiling.
"Your welcome," Phoebe smiled too.
Then Piper became very quiet the rest of the way. They walked up the steps to the front door and stood there for a second before Phoebe realised Piper wasn't going to ring the doorbell and she did it herself. After a moment Cole opened the door a huge smile appear on his face as he saw Phoebe.
"Hi," He kissed Phoebe and gave piper a quick hug as he ushered for them to come in, just as they did Leo came downstairs. He stopped at the bottom looking at Piper, "Hi," He said quietly.
"Hi," She replied shyly.
There was an awkward silence as the four of them stood in the hallway together.
"Em…Pheebs why don't I show you that…thing I was going to show you," Cole suggested.
"What? Oh right yeah I'd love to see it," Phoebe caught on and gave Piper an encouraging smile before following Cole into the kitchen.
"Em…so do you want to come upstairs?" Leo asked.
"Yeah," Piper answered following him up.
Leo sat down on his bed, Piper sat beside him, "I'm glad you came," Leo said as he looked into Piper's eyes.
"I'm glad I came too," She whispered.
Leo looked away and sighed then back at Piper his expression full of sorrow, "Listen piper I'm so sorry…"
"Shh," She cut him off as she pressed her finger softly to his lips, "You don't need to say anything,"
"I don't?" Leo asked as she removed her finger, Piper shook her head and replaced where her finger was with her lips but just before she sunk into a kiss she whispered, "I love you,"
Leo nodded but couldn't say anything as Piper had his lips busy.
"So I take it your not mad at me?" Leo grinned.
"If we've only got a week together then I can't waste time being mad at you," Piper explained.
"So what do you want to do?" Leo asked.
"Mmn, lets just be together," Piper said as she curled up close to Leo, "Okay," Leo agreed as he wrapped his arms around her shoulder and she leant into his chest.
"So you think they are going to be okay?" Cole asked Phoebe as they sat in the kitchen.
"Yeah I think they'll be fine," Phoebe said certainly.
"Its just Leo was in a right state last night,"
"Well Piper too, she wouldn't talk to anyone or come out her room," Phoebe said.
"Well its to be expected I mean they love each other as much as we love each other," Cole said seriously.
Phoebe smiled.
"You know this is boring, lets do something," Cole suddenly said standing up excitedly.
"Like what?" Phoebe asked.
"I don't know, lets just see where the wind takes us," Cole grinned grabbing Phoebe's hand and dragging her out the kitchen.
"Oh, okay why not," Phoebe grinned too.
"Hiya," Prue said cheerfully as Andy answered his phone to her.
"Hey," Came Andy's voice on the other side.
"So what you up to? Me and Abbie miss you," Prue asked tickling Abbie as she said it.
"Aww, I miss you both too," Andy said.
"So where are you, do you want to come round?" Prue asked smiling at Abbie.
"Em, well I'm at Lindsay's actually," Andy answered awkwardly.
"Again? Weren't you like there just yesterday?" Prue asked not hiding the bitterness in her voice.
"Well yeah but she called and asked and…"
"I get it, you'd rather be there with her than with me," Prue said huffily.
"Prue she's having my baby," Andy said.
"Newsflash Andy I had your baby and right now you aren't paying us that much attention," Prue said sourly.
""I know and I'm sorry…"
"You know maybe this whole baby thing is just an act and you're really over there to…"
"Prue!" Andy interrupted loudly, "You've got to trust me,"
"Why? I mean can you blame me for being suspicious," Prue said coldly.
"Prue that's not fair, look I can't talk about this over the phone, I'll come round and see you,"
"Don't bother," Prue snapped and slammed the phone down.
Now I know you are all going to get on at me for making them argue but I hate it when they argue to but it makes the story more interesting but I promise I will not break them up!
Next chapter- Its time for Leo and Cole to go but will they? Paige gets a big shock!
Chapter 11- Guest, Goodbye and Gone will be up probably on Friday but if you want it sooner then you better review!
