Ch.24
"What?" he asked.
"I said that she is your daughter," she responded. He stood there for a second, before smiling.
"I have another daughter?" he asked. She saw him smile at that and smiled back, before nodding her head. He ran over to her and hugged her before they kissed. "Oh, Piper, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to accuse you of cheating on me. It's just that I saw you standing there holding the baby and that guy standing there and I got the wrong impression. I don't know what I was thinking," he apologized.
"Leo, stop. It's ok. I know that you didn't know that Emily was your daughter. That's why I didn't say anything when you said that," she replied.
He hugged her again, before pulling away and saying, "Piper, I have a surprise for you." She stood there, as he walked over to his car and opened the back door. When he did, the tears immediately rushed to her eyes.
"Oh my god!" she exclaimed, before kneeling down. As soon as she did, they ran into her arms. She hugged them like she never wanted to let go.
"Mommy, I missed you," Alex said.
"So did I," Taylor said.
"I missed you two so much. I love you two," Piper said.
"I love you Mommy," they both said as they hugged her. After a couple of minutes, she stood up, with Alex in her arms and Taylor by her side. She looked down at both of them. They hadn't changed at all during those 9 months, except their hair was shorter. For both of them, it now fell right below their shoulders. It looked like it was just about one inch below their shoulders now. Leo picked up Taylor and they went inside.
"Hey Jake, this is Leo my fiancée and these are my two other daughters, Taylor and Alex," Piper introduced them, "Leo, this is Jake, Angela's nephew."
"Are you serious? Man, now I feel like a moron. I thought that you were trying to steal her away from me," Leo said, as he and Piper laughed.
"Yeah, that's funny," Jake said the best he could with saying the truth. The truth was that he wanted to be with Piper and raise Leo's kids as his own. He loved her since the first day he met her, two months ago.
"Um, Jake I think it would be a good idea if you left now. I want Leo to spend some time with Emily," Piper said.
"Oh, yeah, no problem. I'll talk to you guys later," Jake said, before leaving.
"Ok, now, where's my daughter?" Leo asked, smiling. Piper put Alex down and walked over to bassinet. She picked up the baby and walked over to the couch were all three of them were now.
"Taylor, Alex, this is your little sister, Emily," Piper said, showing her to the two older girls.
"Really?" Alex asked, staring at the baby.
"She's pretty Mommy," Taylor said. After a couple of minutes, Piper stood up and walked up to Leo. He was now standing up and waiting to see his daughter.
"Leo, I would like you to meet your daughter, Emily Danielle Wyatt," Piper said, smiling, and handing her to her Daddy. He looked down at his daughter and smiled as Emily looked up at him with her big green eyes and stared at him.
"She's beautiful," Leo said, his smile growing and tears coming to his eyes.
"I know. She reminds me more of you then Alex did at that age. Sometimes it was hard to look at her," Piper responded. About 15 minutes later, Piper had both Taylor and Alex sleeping and found Leo on the couch, talking to Emily.
"Um, Leo, I have to feed her," Piper said.
"Oh, ok," he replied, handing her to her mother. He watched as Piper nursed her and smiled.
"Leo, can I ask you something?" Piper asked, as she nursed Emily.
"Sure," he replied, as he got more comfortable on the couch.
"How did you get the girls back?" Piper asked.
"Well, after searching for a couple of months for them, I finally found them. My mother made them move from Denver to somewhere in Canada. After I had found them, I was searching through my parents things for that court order that my mother had that let her have custody of the girls and when I had found it, I had found out that it was fake. She had some of her friends sign all the signatures that needed to be signed. Basically, she never had custody of the girls because that order wasn't real. She could have gone to jail, but after I had confronted her about it and had the girls and Adam back with me, she tore it all up in front of me so I had no proof. Right after she did that, I picked up Taylor and Adam picked up Alex and we ran out of the house. We managed to get into my car and leave before she could stop us," he explained. Piper just sat there quietly and shocked as he finished explaining everything. About 5 minutes later, Piper and Leo walked upstairs to her bedroom and Piper laid the sleeping baby in her crib. She slept in Piper's room because it was easier for Piper. She put the light blue baby blanket on her and they both walked out of the room. "Piper, I have to ask you something," he said.
"What?" she asked, closing the bedroom door.
"I want you and the girls to come back to Canada with me," he said. She just stood there, staring at him.
