Skarlyt: lol. Yah, I know it wasn't my best, I just needed to let everyone know that Prue was pregnant.

Miggs: Yah, it was. I really haven't decided if it should be a boy or a girl yet. I'll probably ask what people want later, when Prue is closer to having the baby. But don't tell me now, cuz I'll probably forget!

Wyatt333: I already did. It should be up now.

Piper sat in the kitchen, mulling over everything that had just happened. She could still feel Leo's arms around her back, and hear his words echo through her head. Piper sighed and leaned her elbows on the table.

The shrill of the phone snapped Piper out of her dreamland. She jumped out of her chair and grabbed it off the holder. "Hello?" Piper asked. "Hey, Pipes, its Prue." Prue answered. "Um, I'm on my way home, and I need to tell you and Phoebe something."

As Piper was listening, the doorbell rang. Piper walked to the front door, and found Leo with a smile on his face. "Um, Prue, you're going to have to tell us at dinner. I'm going out with…Becca, and we're going to the mall. See you later!" Piper hung up and threw the phone on the coffee table.

"Hey!" Piper greeted. "Same to you." Leo repeated. "It's great to see you!" "Same to you." Piper mimicked They both laughed. "I was thinking that we could go for a bike ride down the forest preserve." Leo suggested.

"That would be great! Come on in for a sec. Let me just grab my jacket, and I'll be right back." Piper let Leo into the house, then ran back to the kitchen to grab her jean jacket. She ran back to the front hallway, and found Leo looking around the house.

"Wow, this place has really changed. There are so many memories I have of this place!" Leo exclaimed. "Hey, um, where's Grams? I wanted to give her a hug from my mom." Piper stared at her feet and closed her eye to suppress the tears.

Leo moved to Piper and put his hand on her shoulder. Piper tried her hardest not to shiver. "What is it, Pipes?" Leo asked softly. "G-grams died…about three months ago." Tears fell down Piper's cheek and onto her shirt.

"Oh, wow, I am so sorry." Leo lifted Piper's chin, so she was staring into his eyes. "How are you holding up?" "Okay, I guess." Piper sniffled, wiping her nose on her hand. "I think Prue took it the hardest, you know? Being the oldest, she kind of blamed things on herself."

"Are you sure that you still want to go on that bike ride?" Leo questioned. "Definitely. I think I need to get out of the house." Piper answered. Leo wrapped his arms around Piper's waist, embracing her. Piper immediately sunk into his arms.

"I'm really sorry about your Grams." Leo whispered. "Thanks," Piper answered. "That makes me feel a lot better." Leo pulled away. "Let's go. You don't think your sisters will mind if I use one of their bikes?" Leo asked.

"No, I'm sure they'd understand." Piper said. She led Leo through the house to the garage. Once they had gathered their bikes, Piper closed the garage and they made there way across the road and through the subdivision to the bike path.

Piper was glad that it didn't take long to ride through the forest preserve. She wanted to just ride leisurely along the path and talk to Leo. "Hey, you want to go down to the lake?" Leo asked. "Sure," Piper agreed, happy to sit by the lake and talk.

Leo turned his bike down a one-lane path, and Piper followed him. Piper let her thoughts roam, and soon she found herself staring at Leo's butt. Piper turned her eyes away, but she couldn't get the picture out of her mind.

'Please let us be there soon!' Piper pleaded. A couple minutes later, Leo rode his bike over the grassy lawn and parked by a tree. "Here we are," Leo explained. "The old lake hasn't changed a bit." "I know. It's still as beautiful as I remember it." Piper agreed.

Leo sat down against the tree they had parked their bikes at, and Piper sat down next to him. They both sat and stared at the smooth water. "What were you trying to tell me that day that I left, Piper?" Leo questioned suddenly. "W-w-what?" Piper asked, stumbling over her words.

Leo turned to Piper and looked deep into her eyes. "I need to know what you were going to tell me that day I left. You tried telling me something, and I haven't been able to get your stutters out of my head for the past four months."

I had a crush on you
Painstakingly I
Would conceal the truth
You probably always knew
But I was timid like a child
Inhibited and way too shy
I'd glance but then avert my eyes
All twisted up in my desire

"I don't know what you're talking…" Piper started, looking down at the grass. "Yes, you do!" Leo exclaimed. "There was something you were going to tell me, and it wasn't how weird it was that I was moving."

"I wasn't…" "Piper, stop lying to me!" Leo cried. Tears started to fall from Piper's eyes. "I-I-I-…" "That is exactly what you did four months ago!" Leo noted. "You're keeping something from me. I thought friends never kept secrets."

"They don't, but…" Leo stared at Piper, then shook his head. "I really thought that I could trust you. But you obviously can't tell me something that happened between us. I don't think that I can befriend someone who keeps things from me.

Leo stood up and started walking away. "Have fun riding tow bikes home. I'm going to Kevin's." Leo explained. Unexplainable emotion rushed through Piper. This was her chance. She could tell him everything, and finally lift all those weights off her shoulders.

But I am not that girl today
Ain't a lot of time for games
I've waited and I've waited now
It's time for me to tell you
'Bout the way

"I love you, okay!" Piper yelled. "That's what I was going to tell you! I am madly in love with you, and I've kept it secret for the past five years!" Leo turned around, his eyes wide with disbelief. He started walking back towards Piper.

"I don't know how it happened! One day we're really good friends, and the next I have these daydreams of us getting married. Every time I made a birthday wish, I would wish that you would actually notice me, and stop pretending I was a nobody!" By now, tears were streaming down Piper's face.

"Every time me and Becca played MASH, you were the first name I thought of. She knew that I liked you, but she never understood. Nobody ever understood! They all thought I was a little girl with a crush on the guy across the street." Piper took a deep breath.

"You were the only person that I could say 'I love you' too in my head without cringing. I can't explain it, but I just suddenly thought that you were perfect for me. It was like we were meant to be. I loved you, and I still do!"

Leo set his hand on Piper's cheek and wiped the tears away as Piper poured her heart out to him. Piper set her hand on top of Leo's and leaned into it. "All I wanted was for you to love me the way I loved you." Piper whispered.

Leo leaned in and kissed Piper deeply and passionately. Piper kissed him back, her eyes fluttering closed and her body molding into him. Leo let Piper's weight push him against the tree, and he wrapped his arms around her waist.

It's just they way I want you baby
Oh so badEvery night and everyday
Must we hesitate?
It's just the feeling that comes over me
I cannot alleviate
Please don't make me wait
It's just the way I want you baby
Oh so bad
Every night and everyday

"God, Leo, where did you go?" Kevin's voice echoed. Leo pulled away quickly and looked around the tree. Kevin was making his way up the path. "Stay behind the tree." Leo whispered to Piper. "Meet me here tomorrow afternoon after lunch."

Leo placed a soft kiss on Piper's lips. Piper tried to deepen it, but Leo pulled away and pushed her out of Kevin's range of vision. Leo leaned against the tree and stared out at the water. "What about the bike?" Piper asked between her teeth.

"I'll think of something." Leo muttered under his breath. "There you are, Leo!" Kevin exclaimed. "Where were you, man? My mom was worried sick!" "Sorry." Leo apologized. "I came up here to think, and lost track of the time."

"What are the bikes doing here? You aren't here with that Piper girl, are you?" Kevin questioned. "No. They were there when I walked up. Someone must have left them." "Whatever. Dinner's ready at the house, so let's go."

"Okay," Leo answered, following Kevin. Before he got onto the path, Leo looked over his shoulder at Piper. Piper stared right back at him and nodded. Leo blew her a kiss then disappeared behind the trees.

Piper leaned back against the tree and touched her lips. They still tingled with a deep passion that Piper had never felt before. 'I think that he loves me.' Piper thought to herself. She waited for a minute, then slowly made her way home with the bikes.
