Chapter 6-Prom

"Oh my, Piper, Prue, you two look beautiful!" Grams gushed as the girls twirled, modeling their prom dresses.

"Thanks Grams," Piper said.

"I don't see why you and Prue bother getting so dressed up. It's just a stupid dance." Phoebe scoffed.

"You're just jealous because you're not going." Prue noted.

"Not true, me, Paige and Cole have better things to do with our time than dance in dorky clothes to oldies that they played before Grams was even born."

"You and Paige sure have been spending an awful lot of time together lately." Prue eyed her sister, who was sitting with her legs thrown over the arm of the over-stuffed chair.

"What exactly are you implying metal-mouth?" Phoebe jumped up.

"Guys, C'mon." Piper said quietly, trying to make the peace.

"I think you know exactly what I'm implying!" Prue smiled, showing off her new braces. (Which is nothing to show off Prue.)

"Girls, please!" Grams pleaded.

"Grams, she knows I'm just kidding." Prue batted her eyelashes.

"Yea, right." Phoebe said sarcastically and stormed off. She muttered something.

"I heard that young lady!" Grams cried.

Prue looked over at Piper and the two giggled.

Just then the doorbell rang.

"Piper, will you get that?" Grams asked as she adjusted the hem to Prue's dress.

"Sure," Piper replied and walked over to the front door and opened it to see Leo standing there.

"Hey Piper," Leo smiled. "Can I…"

"Leo! You're not supposed to see me in my dress yet! It's bad luck!" Piper shrieked and hid her body behind the door.

Leo chuckled. "Isn't that wedding dresses?"

Piper thought for a minute. "Hmm, I guess you're right." She opened the door and Leo walked in but stopped, his jaw dropped.

"Wow, Piper, you look…hot."

. "Thank-you," Piper flushed as she kissed him. "Ah not that I'm not thrilled to see you but, what are you doing here?"

"Um I came to pick you up for prom, remember?" Leo raised an eyebrow, amused.

"Omigod, it's already 8:30?" Piper checked her watch. "I'm almost done, 5 more minutes."

"Okay," Leo nodded. Piper started to leave but he grabbed her arm and pulled her back and kissed her again. "I love you," He whispered.

"Love you too," Piper smiled and turned and headed upstairs. Leo watched her go then walked into the conservatory where Grams and Prue were sitting.

"Hey Ms. Halliwell, hey Prue. You look great." He said sitting across from them.

"Hey Leo, you didn't happen to see Andy on your way over here, did you?" Prue asked.

Leo opened his mouth to say something but just as he did the doorbell rang.

"Nevermind!" Prue chirped as she ran to the door. She stuck her head back into the room. "Cya later Grams, later Leo!" she slammed the door.

Leo chuckled.

"So Leo, are you excited about tonight?" Penny asked, trying to make conversation.

"Yes ma'am," Leo answered.

Grams smiled. "You're such a sweet boy. I knew from the moment I met you that you and Piper were meant for each other."

"Really?"

"Oh yes! I can just see you two getting married and having kids. It's all so romantic!" Grams sighed.

Leo swallowed hard and started to sweat. Marriage? Kids? He wasn't even out of high school yet and already he had his future planned out for him. "I-I don't know Ms…." Leo started but stopped when he spotted Piper walking down the stairs. His breath caught in his throat.

"Ready?" Piper asked.

"Uh, y-yea." Leo stuttered and took Piper's hand.

"Have fun you two!" Grams called as they walked out the door.

Piper and Leo walked into the gym at Baker High and didn't even recognize it. Streamers and balloons hung every which way. Colored lights swayed from side to side; setting the mood just right and people were dancing to the lively music in the middle of the court.

"Wow, I never imagined it would be this beautiful." Piper marveled.

"Haven't you ever been to a dance before?" Leo asked.

Piper looked down at the floor. Leo put a finger under her chin and lifted it.

"Well then, we'll just have to make tonight extra special then, won't we?"

Piper smiled at him. She always dreamed of having a relationship like this. Where the guy made her melt everytime he looked at her, made her feel like the only girl in the world. She thought that was the kind of thing that only happened in the movies. But it was real, and it was happening to her.

The song ended and a slow one started.

"Do you wanna dance?" Leo asked shyly.

Piper just nodded. Leo took her hand and led her to the dance floor.

"Kay, I'm kinda new at this, so you're gonna have to lead for awhile." Leo admitted.

Piper giggled. "It's not that hard. You just…" She blushed slightly. "Put your hands on my waist, then I-put my hands on your shoulders…" Piper instructed. "Good, okay, now just move your feet like me. Okay, you got it!"

"You're a good teacher." Leo laughed and so did she.

They looked into each other's eyes. Silently telling one another how happy they were to be together. Then Piper put her head on Leo's shoulder and he wrapped his arms around her and sighed.

They danced for what seemed like hours. They didn't seem to notice the songs change, or anyone around them for that matter. Every once in awhile they would whisper how much they loved each other. They could've stayed there all night.

Another song ended and the DJ announced a 15 intermission and everyone started talking at once.

"Do you want something to drink?" Leo offered

"That would be great." Piper nodded.

"Okay, I'll be back." Leo said as he turned and made his way through the crowd.

Piper crossed her arms over her chest, closed her eyes and sighed happily. When she opened them Jeremy was standing in front of her. She jumped. A little alarmed to see him, especially since they hadn't talked since the night Piper figured out his feelings.

"Hey Jeremy," Piper said awkwardly.

"Hey, so-so how's it going?" Jeremy asked, putting a hand on the back of his neck.

"Okay, you? Who are you here with?" Piper asked looking around.

"Ah, no one, just thought I'd come just to come, ya know."

Piper nodded.

"Piper look, I know I acted like a jackass last time I saw you, but I was angry. And I don't want to stop being friends just because of one little fight." Jeremy explained.

"Me neither, but what was I supposed to do? I almost lost Leo because of you!"

"I-I know…"

Leo looked over from the punch table to see Piper talking with someone. He strained to see who, then he recognized him. It was Jeremy!

'What's he doing near her?' Leo nearly exploded. Then calmed down when he realized that he was probably just apologizing for the other night. "That better be it." He muttered through gritted teeth.

"You're still my best friend Jeremy. At least I want you to be, but you have to get along with Leo." Piper explained.

"I know, I know, and I want to. I want you to be happy. And I guess Leo's not a bad guy…" Jeremy considered.

"Oh Jeremy, you have no idea how good it is to hear you say that!" Piper breathed a sigh of relief and hugged him.

Leo almost died right there. What the hell was going on over there?

"Do you wanna dance?" Jeremy asked.

"I dunno, Leo will be back any second and…" Piper started but Jeremy stuck out his hand.

"It's just a harmless dance Piper, don't worry." He assured her.

"Well, okay, one dance." Piper told him. He smiled and grabbed her hand, pulling her close to him.

Piper felt uncomfortable, Jeremy was acting weird. He wasn't as sweet as he usually was, something was wrong.

Leo spit out his drink. What was going on? He watched Piper and Jeremy dance, Jeremy was smiling uncontrollably and he thought he saw Piper laugh. Then he leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. That was it…Leo had to get out of here before something bad happened.

"Jeremy, don't." Piper ordered quietly. "If Leo sees us I don't want him to get the wrong idea."

"Sorry," Jeremy lied. He smiled again as he watched Leo storm out of the gym. His plan was working perfectly. 'Now let's hope Missy holds up her end of the deal.'

Leo made it out into the hallway, leaned up against the wall and let out a long breath. He needed some time to think before he went back in there. It was probably just a misunderstanding. Piper would never cheat on him, would she? "No, of course not!" Leo insisted. 'I'll just go back in there, act like nothing happened, and that'll be it.' Leo told himself. Just as he turned to go back in the door opened and whacked him in the face.

"Oh, owww…" Leo muttered.

"Omigod! Leo! I'm so sorry!" A familiar voice apologized.

Leo opened his eyes to see Missy standing there. She helped him up.

"Missy, what are you doing here?" He asked painfully.

"I saw you rush out of there so quickly. I just wanted to make sure everything was all right." Missy explained, putting a hand on his shoulder.

"I'm…fine." Leo answered.

"You're lying. C'mon, I thought we were friends. Tell me what's wrong."

"We're not friends Missy," Leo almost laughed. Everyone was acting so weird tonight. There had to be something in the punch.

"You're right, but can you blame me for being such a caring person?" Missy said sweetly.

Yup something's up. "It's stupid, but okay…" Leo explained the whole situation as Missy nodded.

"Well, that sucks." She stated the obvious.

"You're telling me, you don't think she's cheating on me, do you?"

She thought this over, or at least pretended to. "I'm not sure, but you know I'd never cheat on you." She said and inched closer to him; his back hit the wall.

"Good to know, but I'm with Piper." Leo said uncomfortably. He tried to move but Missy blocked his way. "Listen, Missy, thanks for listening, but I should be getting back inside. Piper's probably looking for me." Leo insisted.

"She can wait." She muttered and put her hands on his shoulders and kissed him.

Piper walked around the room trying to find Leo but couldn't. She even had Jeremy go and look in the bathroom. She walked over to Prue and Andy who were standing with a few of their friends laughing.

"Hey Piper, where's Leo?" Prue asked.

"I was just gonna ask you the same thing. You guys haven't seen him have you?" Piper asked desperately. One by one they shook their heads.

Jeremy ran up to her. "Piper, someone said that they saw Leo walk outside with Missy a few minutes ago." He lied.

Piper's heart seemed to stop beating. Why was he with Missy? She took off running toward the door and threw it open. She thought she was gonna faint.

Leo heard the door fly open and finally managed to push Missy away. His jaw dropped when he saw Piper standing there, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Piper, it's not what it looks like! She…" Leo started but Piper ran past them to the door leading outside.

"Piper wait!" Leo called. He looked coldly at Missy who was smiling. He took off after her.

Missy stood there and crossed her arms. Jeremy walked up next to her as they watched Leo run out the door.

"I thought you said he'd be mine." Missy whined.

"It's gonna take time. Just be patient. Piper will break up with Leo and she'll come running to me, and Leo will come to you." He started laughing and put his arm around Missy.

"Don't touch me." Missy said blankly.

"Sorry," He muttered.

TBC….

NOOOOO!

Yeesh, ok I decided to update this one first cuz I'm in a mushy-feelings type mood, but only because my girlfriend made me sit through The Wedding Planner the other night. If anyone's keeping score, I hate Jennifer Lopez more than ever now. I swear, the woman should just-not-act!

Oh, and Alex, if you say this was overdramatic, I'll track you down and bludgeon you to death with the BOS….

Later!
