Ch.21
Piper knocked on the door, before walking in. "Leo," she said. But she quickly stopped talking when she saw him sleeping on their bed, Taylor sleeping on his chest. She smiled as she walked over and watched them sleep. Her smile grew when she saw his arm protectively wrapped around Taylor, so she wouldn't fall and watched as her dark brown hair gently moved back and forth from Leo's breathing. Piper couldn't help it and took out her camera to get a picture. She then put the camera away, before putting the covers over the two and walking out of the room.
Three hours later, Leo walked downstairs. His hair was messy and he was only wearing pajama pants and socks.
"Hey," he said, walking into the kitchen.
"Hey, how was your nap?" she asked.
"Ok, I guess. Taylor had a good one too," he replied, "how was the picture?" She smiled, knowing she had been caught.
"I had to. You and her looked so cute," Piper said. He just smiled at her.
"Piper," he said. She looked back at him. "I think we should go back," he said.
Piper and Leo stood outside of Victor's door. Leo held Taylor as Piper knocked.
"Hey guys. What are you doing here?" Victor asked, before noticing part of the back part of their car filled with bags. "Ok, what's going on?" he asked.
"Um, well, we decided to go back to San Francisco," Piper said. Victor just stood there.
"And, we were wondering if you could kind of, save that house for us," Piper added.
"Piper," Victor said.
"I know, but we're going to be back after graduation and we're going to need a babysitter," she said, knowing this would be him.
"Ok, ok. I'll do my best. But, why?" he asked.
"Because of family problems. Both Leo's and mine" Piper replied.
"Well, can I at least say goodbye to Taylor?" he asked. Piper could see the tears in his eyes.
"Of course," she said, before he called Angela, Blake, and Craig. He quickly explained to them that Piper, Leo, and Taylor were going back to San Francisco. Leo then handed Taylor to Victor so he could say goodbye. As Victor held her, Taylor looked at him and said,
"Bye bye Pop." This shocked Piper and Leo. They had been trying to get her to say that for about a month. Victor hugged and kissed her, with tears slowly making their way out of his eyes. He then passed her to Angela, to Blake and to Craig, so they all could say bye too. After that, Piper and Leo had said goodbye to them.
"Bye," Leo said, "thanks for everything."
"No problem. I was glad to help you three out and to meet my first granddaughter," Victor replied, smiling.
"Bye Dad. I love you," Piper said, holding Taylor.
"I love you too," he said, quickly hugging them again. He stood in the doorway, with his arm around Angela's waist and the two boys in the front of them, and watched as Piper put Taylor in her seat, got in and they left.
