Lucy Knight: Yup, he IS a bastard, and as for leo and Piper…you'll have to read the fic!
"My name's Leo Wyatt." He said, stretch his hand forward and threw her one of his killer smiles. She smiled back, he hadn't really seen her smile before, he liked it A LOT.
"Piper Halliwell." He replied and took his hand. As soon as he felt her skin against his he felt an electric spark. He shook it off.
"Hi, Piper. If you don't mind me asking, why are you here? You look really sad." Leo asked in a soft voice that sent shivers down Pipers spine.
"My sister's been in a car accident." Piper explained a few rebellious tears rolling down her cheeks, and she instantly wiped them away.
A pang of pity went off in Leo's chest again. But he shook it off. Why was he feeling these things? It wasn't like he had never seen a woman cry before! Snap out of it Wyatt!
"I'm sorry." He said
"It's not your fault." She told him but her voice was wavering
"You looked like you was going somewhere." Leo said
"Yeah, to see my nieces and nephews, there only young, and with there mother in hospital…" she trailed off again, in fear of crying
"I won't keep you then." He told her, "But…" he reached into his jeans pocket and pulled out a piece of paper and a pen. He scribbled something on it and then handed it to her, "If you ever want to talk…"
Piper looked at the paper in his hand. It was weird, she had only just met this man, but something about him was familiar. She felt like she knew him somehow. She felt connected.
She looked at him properly. He had dirty blonde hair, that was a little messed up, but not too much, jus right. He had boyish good looks and green eyes. Dazzling big green eyes that sparkled and saw right into your soul. She looked at him some more. He was wearing a plain black t-shirt and tight dark blue denim jeans.
"Thanks." She said softly and tingles went through Leo's body
"Anytime." He reminded and walked down the ward.
Leo walked down the hallway and turned round the corner. He heart ached from feeling new emotions. Why was he feeling these things? Leo hit his head against the wall in frustration. What were they? He clenched his jaw and fist. He heard the low-pitched jingle in his head and groaned.
"Now?" he asked, looking toward the sky, the jingle came again, more adamant, "I'm coming!" he said quietly, check the coast was clear and orbed out, in black orbs.

The orbed back in, in front of the panel of elders. All dressed in long black robes.
"What now?" Leo asked, growing extremely agitated with them
"Just worried, again." One elder spoke up
"What the fuck about?" Then it hit him, "You still think I'm falling for my charge don't you!" he yelled in disbelief.
"Now, Leo, we never said that…"
"You don't need to, I can tell!"
"It's just that we can see similarities between this job and Alec's one with Daisy." He explained
"There are NO fucking similarities!" Leo roared
"There are Leo, you're always there, never report…"
"I'm doing my fucking job!"
"Leo, clam down!"
"I AM fuckin' calm!" And with that Leo orbed out.
How dare they! How dare they suggest that I, ME! Leo fucking Wyatt would do a thing so stupid as to fall in love with my charge! It's ludicrous! Who do they think I am? Alec! I'm not as foolish as him! I'm better! And I am NOT in love with Piper fucking Halliwell!
But if he was being honest with himself, he didn't know whom he was trying to convince, the elders…or himself.

Piper walked slowly into the children's room, clutching to the paper in her hand. The triplets ran up to her.
"What's wrong with mommy?" little Jemma asked her
"Will she be okay?" James asked and Jake was in too many tears to say anything.
Piper looked helplessly over at Phoebe who just gave her a sad look and snuggled deeper into Cole's chest. Piper bent down to the kid's heights.
"You're mommy, had an accident today, but she's gunna be okay. I promise you." She told them softly and pulled Jake up to her and picked him up. She walked over to Phoebe and Cole.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"How you holdin up Phoebe?" Piper asked her little sister
"Not too great. You?"
"Actually, I'm okay, well…better than last time…" she trailed off
"Yeah"
"So, what did the doctors say?"
"that we can't see her yet." Phoebe's voice choked with tears, "I need to see her Pipe!"
"I know you do honey. Where are Lilly and Holly?"
"With Sheila and Darryl." Phoebe explained, "It's just I didn't think it would be a good idea to bring them."
"Yeah, where are Paige and Kyle?"
"Just changing Bry."
"Okay."
Jake's sobs had turned into the occasional snuffle and Piper set him down on the floor and sat herself down in the chair and more tears fell. Jeremy would be home by now she thought looking at her watch. She should've left a note… She'd just have to cross that bridge hen it came, right now her thoughts were on Leo Wyatt, the kind stranger she had met just a while before. She felt for the paper in her pocked and held onto it. She would phone him, something was telling her that she HAD to.
AN: So what dya think? Leo is SO in denial! And Piper LIKES him! And the elders are just being their usual annoying selves! So, I kinda liked that chapter! So, please review and PLEASE don't flame!
