Leo lazily opened his eyes and pulled Piper closer to him, he was still troubled by the fact he couldn't kill her that way. Sure he could still kill her but it would be harder. No hands, he would have to use the natural ways that mortal murderers used…Leo shuddered slightly. It would be tough. He let her get to close. But he wouldn't stoop to Alec's level he wouldn't love her. Ever. He breathed in her intoxicating scent and shook his head. No, I can't love her. I CAN'T love her!
Last night the elders had orbed him up there to chat. Well, not so much a chat as a screaming match. They had told Leo that they could sense his love for this woman from the heavens. Leo had answered, That's probably Alec! And they yelled back at him for that and the argument continued until Piper began to stir. Then they orbed him back. She couldn't wake and find him not there. Her trust in him would be lost and the plan would fail. Leo let out a soft shaky laugh at their comment. He wasn't falling in love, he never would. Not ever.
It's like the apocalypse now
The guilt rains down like bullets from a cloud
But the words come out
Though I try to speak
You're gonna hate me now
Piper stirred in her sleep and woke up. She turned and faced Leo and for a second everything was perfect, but then she remembered. Jeremy pinning her against the wall n Leo…Leo saved her. She smiled, but the tears fell when she thought what was going to happen to her when she got back. Leo must've seen them because he held her even closer. She snuggled into his embrace, safe in the knowledge that Leo would never hurt her…
It's like a bitter curse
Imagine hurt on a scale unheard
Well the truth is worse
Gotta face the music
'Cause it's getting loud
It was later in the day and Leo glanced over at Piper, she hadn't wanted to go home. And Leo understood. Jeremy was back there. He'd be awake now, Leo thought. Piper was nervous. He could tell, her eyes were darting around the room and she was pulling at her clothes a little, nerves that Jeremy would hurt her again. Leo wouldn't let that happen. Any way, she'd be dead before anyone could. Leo forced that thought back as it made him shudder and sat down next to her, putting one of his muscled arms around her.
She turned around to face him, the tracks of her tears stained onto her perfect skin. And Leo's heart melted. He placed a finger under her chin and pulled her face to him, covering her mouth with his, memorizing her taste, and the way her tongue hit his, it that playful way. The way the little noises at the back of the throat drove him crazy and the way her little hands grabbed greedy handfuls of his t-shirt. This is it. Leo reached into his back jeans pocket for the knife he had placed there earlier. It was time to finish the job.
Sorry
For the mess I made
I fucked up, never can be saved
I'm sorry
I wish I could take you back
I would if I could but I can't do that
He held it up and braced himself. He was about to do the hardest thing he had ever had to do and he felt that familiar pang of pain in his chest, he went to plunge it into her perfect little body but he couldn't! Leo Wyatt, the most notorious Darklighter in history, couldn't finish a job. And why? Because he got his damn feelings involved. He slipped the knife back into his pocket, but not quick enough. Piper had seen the telltale flash of sinister steel. She pulled back and saw the knife.
"Leo? Why have you got that?" he voice was racked with fear and Leo wanted to pull her into his arms and comfort her. But that was it. The game was up, he would have to tell her the truth.
I'm sorry
I'm down on my knees
I know I failed spectacularly
I'm sorry
That I stooped too low
Just hear me out before you go
"A knife." He told her, knowing what was coming next.
"Why do you have a knife?" she backed away from him and stood up. Tell her the truth Wyatt!
"Because I was supposed to kill you?"
"What?" tears dripping from her words and down her cheeks.
"I was assigned to kill you." He repeated, his heart breaking a little more with every word.
"Why?" he confused features were killing Leo inside, but he carried on
"I'm what they call a Darklighter, we kill whitelighters, witches and future whitlighters. You're a future whitelighter. I was told to kill you, and I should've done. I WANT to! But I can't!"
"Why?" Piper asked
"Because I let myself get to close, I let YOU get to close!" He was shouting now.
Now we're face to face
I see your tears and I feel disgraced
Hang my head in shame
Need I even ask, "Do you hate me now?"
This new scenario
You cut and run, you forgive what I've done
But even if it's in your heart to
What I did I never can undo
"You've been playing me." She stated, not in a convicting way, just a statement to let the shock sink in, tears rapidly falling down her face.
"I'm sorry. Leo told her sincerely, she looked up at him and glared, fire burning in her beautiful brown eyes. She walked quickly over to him and slapped him hard around the face, Leo just stood in shock.
"How dare you?" she yelled at him, "You held me, kissed me, made love to me! You acted like you cared! It was all an act!" Those words stung Leo more than he thought they would. He tried to reach out to her. But she quickly backed away to the door.
"Don't touch me!" she shouted at him, disgusted and Leo withdrew his hand like it was burning.
"Piper! If you go back to the manor Jeremy'll hurt you!" He told her desperately
"Not like wasn't going to do worse! Stay away from me Leo!" And with that she ran as fast as her gorgeous legs could carry her away from Leo.
Sorry
For the mess I made
I fucked up, never can be saved
I'm sorry
I wish I could take you back
I would if I could but I can't do that
Leo sunk to the floor and held his head in his hands. Why couldn't I just finish it? Kill her! He hit the wall behind him in frustration and sadness and quickly dissolved into tears. He could here the elders calling him, but Leo could care less. He didn't want to see them right now. They'd probably kill him any way…
He got to his feet slowly and walked into his room. O God, it smells like her. His whole apartment did, good job he'd be out tomorrow, the job was over. For the first time since his first, Leo had failed a job. He couldn't finish it. He couldn't kill her.
I'm sorry
I'm down on my knees
I know I failed spectacularly
I'm sorry
That I stooped too low
Just hear me out before you go
It's like apocalypse now
The guilt rains down
I wish I could have stopped to think about it
Jumped right in and anger now
I think I put the last nail in the coffin
My last chance, this word I'm dropping
Piper banged on the door of Paige's house. She had always been closer to Paige. And, plus, she nowhere else to go. She couldn't go back to the manor, God knows what Jeremy would do to her and Leo wasn't an option, the tears fell harder at the thought of Leo. But she couldn't think about him. She wasn't going to let herself. Just then the door open and there stood Paige. She didn't ask questions, she just held her arms open and Piper collapsed into them, sobbing her heart out. Over Jeremy, Prue, Leo and all the other messed up things in her 28-year-old life.
Sorry
For the mess I made
I fucked up, never can be saved
I'm sorry
I wish I could take you back
I would if I could but I can't do that
I'm sorry
I'm down on my knees
I know I failed spectacularly
I'm sorry
That I stooped too low
Just hear me out before you go
AN: That was not so good, but o well…and no; it's not the end! Don't worry! That song was "Sorry" by Ben Adams (he's so buff!) and please review and I'll get to work on chapter 14!
