Prue looks through the Book of Shadows with Piper, Leo and Phoebe walk in, and Phoebe gives Prue a piece of paper, "We checked online to see if we could find that necklace Leo told us about in the car."

Prue looks at the paper, "Well?"

"Oh!" Leo begins to explain, "Well the necklace protects it's possesor against one specific demon."

"Well what demon?"

"Dantrix."

Piper looks through the book, "Dantrix... he holds the power to freeze objects," Piper looks up at Prue, "isn't that the demon who was killed earlier today?"

A lightbulb goes off in Phoebe head, "Oh my god, he's mapping this out." They just kind of look at her. "I mean think about it. First, he kills a witch to obtain a necklace that protects against Dantrix, then he goes after Dantrix."

"The elders were right, he's planning something."

"Well what could he be planning?"

"I don't know, I'll go see what I can find out." He orbs out. The sisters stand in the attic staring at eachother.

The next day, Piper is in her room getting ready to go out to lunch with Jared. Clothes lie everywhere, she has tried on about 100 other outfits. Finally, the door bell rings, she chooses the outfit she has on. She heads down the stairs and open the door, expecting to see Jared, but Dan stands there, "Dan. What are you doing here?"

"We have a date remember?" He says smiling hopefully.

"Really? Are you sure that it's today?"

"Yeah, we agreed yesterday that we were going to lunch." he says still smiling.

"Oh well I'm sorry Dan," she pulls on her jacket, "I have a meeting with some people for the club today. I'm sorry."

"It's alright, maybe another time?" he asks disappointed.

"Okay." She gives him a kiss on the cheek, "I'll call you tonight." She closes the door and walks past him to her jeep. Dan walks back to his house, and Piper sits in the driver's seat of her jeep. "Okay, nothing's going on between me and Jared. I'm not cheating on Dan, and technically Jared does work at the club." She closes her eyes as she starts her car.

Jared is sitting at a table at Quake waiting for Piper. He's playing with his napkin, 'Why am I nervous? I shouldn't be nervous! It's just a date! I don't even care about her! Right?' He grabs his chest again, he silently deals with the pain. The burning in his chest lasts for five minutes. He breathes heavily again, "What the hell is going on?"

"Jared?"

He looks up, his eyes meet Piper's and suddenly all the pain is gone. He smiles, "Hi," clears his throat, "Hey."

She smiles bashfully, "Hi."

"I didn't think you were coming."

"Yeah I'm sorry I'm late, my neighbor came by while I was leaving."

He gets up, and she holds out her hand. He looks at her hand and smiles, "I don't shake hands."

"Really?" she gives him a look.

"Yeah," he walks takes a couple steps towards her and gives her a hug. In that brief moment, holding Piper, all the anger inside him seemed to disappear. For the first time in his life, he didn't feel evil.

Phoebe, Prue and Leo sit in the manor eating dinner. Leo asks, "Do you guys know where Piper is?"

"Oh," Prue searches for an answer, "She's at the club."

Leo closes his eyes, "No she's not, I don't sense her there." He gets a questioning look on his face, his eyes still closed. "Actually, I can't sense her at all." He opens his eyes

"What do you mean?"

"I can't sense her."

"Well I'll go call her." Prue gets up from the table.

Piper and Jared are walking down the hall in Jared's apartmet building. They are laughing and enjoying each other's company. "Well thanks for the ride."

"No problem," they stand at his door.

"And the night off."

She laughs, "No problem... I had a good time today." She smiles.

"Yeah... I did too."

They stare at each other, Jared reachs out and grabs her hand, he slowly pulls Piper toward him. She knows what is about to happen, she know she shouldn't let it happen, but she doesn't want to stop it. Jared leans toward her, his eyes not leaving her's. Suddenly, her cell phone rings and startles both of them. She smiles at him embarrased, "Sorry."

"It's alright." He opens the door, as she turns around to answer the phone, he waves his hand over his empty apartment, and funiture appears engulfed in black lights, and his apartment is no longer empty. He closes the door quietly as to not let Piper hear him close the door.

"I'm a little busy!" she mutters quietly.

"Piper, where are you?" asks Prue.

"I'm with Jared. Why? What's wrong?"

"No reason, we were just wondering because Leo couldn't sense you."

"Is he watching me?"

"No! We actually asked him to because, it was a lunch date, and it's not lunch anymore."

"Well, I'm having a good time," she turns around to look at Jared who waits patiently for her. "Look Prue, I have to go."

"Are you going to be coming home?"

"I don't know, Prue I have to go. Bye," she hangs up.

Phoebe comes up to Prue, "Is she alright?"

"She's fine, she's actually still on her date with that bartender."

They turn around to see Leo standing there, "She's on a date? I thought you said she was at the club?"

"Yeah, Leo look we're sorry." His stands there in disbelief. His heart is shattered once again. He remembered feeling this way twice before in his life. The first time he lost Piper, he felt like this. He wasn't himself, he knew something was missing in his life, and now he felt like he would never get it back. She was gone. Prue and Phoebe noticed this in his face, then could the pain in his eyes, they could practically see his heart breaking. "Leo I'm so sorry." Phoebe walks towards him to give him a hug, but he backs away, "I'm gonna go." He orbs out.

Piper turns back to Jared, "Sorry."

"It's okay, do you want to maybe come in and watch a movie or something?"

She hesitates, but smiles, "Sure."

He opens the door slowly, "It's not much but..." They walk in and he closes the door behind Piper. "You can sit on the couch if you want. Do you something to drink?"

"Uhh... sure." He walks into the kitchen, as she look at the couch, biting her lip and decides to follow him the kitchen.

Jared has his head in the fridge looking for something to drink. Piper stands behind the fridge door, hidden from Jared's view. He closes the door with two cans of soda in his hands. He sees Piper standing there, startling him, as he drops the cans, "Piper, I didn't see you there."

He bends over to pick them up, but she stops him, by grabbing his hand. He looks up at her and straightens up. They stand facing each other, lost in each other's gaze. Piper can't help but feeling that this is right, there was something about him, but she couldn't figure out what. She knew should end things with Dan before she even tried to start anything with Jared, but she couldn't help herself. Jared carressed her face with his hand, wrapping him other arm around her, pulling her closer to him. They still stare deeply into each other's eyes. Jared pauses to let the tension bulid, then finally leans toward her and kisses her passionatly, Piper gladly returns the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck, he pulls her even closer to him. Piper slowly moves her hands to his chest and pushes him away, "Wait, I can't do this."

Jared stands there baffled, "What? Wait, why not?"

Piper wipes her lips, "Because I'm seeing someone, well sort of."

"Sort of? What the hell does sort of mean?"

She rests her hand on her forehead, "I mean, I'm going to break up with him, but until then I... I just can't."

Jared stills stands there confused, "Okay..." Both of them stand there awkwardly.

Piper can't help the feeling that makes her want to kiss him again. 'What the hell is wrong with me? I actually like this guy, but I love Dan, but he doesn't know my secret, and I can never tell him. Jared doesn't know my secret either but... Stop it!' Piper sighs fustrated, Jared stands with his hands retreated into his pockets. "Oh what the hell?" She pulls Jared close to her kissing him passionatly. Jared is surprised, but after a couple of seconds he relaxs and wraps his arms around her waist, pressing her against him. He didn't feel evil again, there was something about her that made him feel good inside, he'd felt this way once before, back when he was alive, when he had first fallen in love with his future fiance. He wasn't falling in love again was he? He was evil? She was a witch, even worse, a Charmed One, but her eyes were amazing. Suddenly the burning pain in his chest was back, this time hurt worse than all the others combined, but he didn't want Piper to suspect anything supernatural. Then as sudden as the pain arrived, it was gone, but he felt weird, he wasn't angry anymore. Hate didn't fill his heart.

'Oh my god! What's happening to me? Why do I feel like this? I'm evil! Stop it Jared, focus on your mission. Kill her!' He lifts one hand from Piper's back, and suddenly a dagger orbs into his hand. Still kissing her, eyes closed he raises the dagger and holds it there, behind her back. 'Do it!' His hand begins to shake, he can't find the strength to kill her. He prbs the dagger out of his hand, and pulls away from her. "You have to go."

Now, Piper stands confused, "Why?"

"Because you have too. You said yourself you're seeing someone, and I can't do it."

Piper kind of stares at him funny, something was different, "You're right." She pause thinking, "You have brown eyes right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Cause they're blue."

"What? I haven't had blue eyes since I was a baby."

"I'm not seeing things go look in the mirror yourself."

He stares at her, "Piper."

"Yeah, I'm going..."

He walks her to the door, she kisses goodbye, and slowly walks out the door. He looks at his apartment and waves his hand, making the furniture disappear and orbs out.

Piper gets out of her jeep but doesn't head for her house she walks towards Dan's. She knocks and patiently waits for him.

"Piper." Dan says opening the door.

"Dan, we need to talk."

"Uh oh."

"Uh oh? What do you mean 'Uh oh."

"That's never good." Piper looks away, "You're breaking up with me aren't you?"

"Dan I'm sorry, I mean its not you, well I'm not going to lie to you, " she thinks about what she is going to say. "There's this other guy..."

"Is it Leo?"

"Leo? No, no not Leo."

"Well who is it?"

"A guy a met."

"Where?"

"The club."

Dan looks crushed, his eyes look like his heart just shattered into a million pieces.

"Dan I'm really sorry, I'm sure there are plenty of other girls who would love to date you."

"But you're not one of them." They both stand there uncomfortable.

"Well, I'm gonna go... bye Dan." She smiles and leaves for her house.

Dan still stands there with the door open, taking in everything that has happened. "Goodbye Piper."

Jared stands in front of the Triad. They stare angrily at him, "You failed!"

"No I didn't!"

"You had the chance to kill her and you failed."

"It wasn't the right moment. Her whitelighter would have sensed her death."

"You are a darklighter! Your job is to kill whitelighters!"

"You had heard cloaked," adds another memeber.

"It wasn't the right time."

"When will the right time be Wyatt!"

"Soon!"

"How soon? We are growing impatient!"

"I will bring you the Charmed Ones!"

"You have one more chance to complete your mission. Do not fail again Wyatt!" The anger brews inside of Jared as he stands staring at them. "Begone Wyatt!" He bows and orbs out.
