A/n: Okay, I couldn't wait till you all reviewed the 3rd chapter becuz I had this brilliant idea and I just had to put it up!
"Yes, this is Leo Wyatt." Elijah explained. "Leo, this is…" "Piper Halliwell," Leo cut in. Piper could feel him looking her up and down. "Do you two know each other?" Elijah asked uncomfortably. "We're mutual friends," Piper answered as her eyes burned a hole into Leo's head.
"If you two aren't capable working together, I can always…" Elijah started. "No, we'll be fine," Leo interrupted. Leo's eyes stared at Piper sadly. It was as if he was hoping they could still get together. Piper glared at him furiously.
"Okay, then. Let's move on to the audition. Flip to page 19. This will be towards the end of the episode after both Jen and Austin meet each other. Jen is mad at Austin for not telling her about his wife so she comes to confront him. Go!"
Piper looked down at her script. This was the perfect part to play right now. She was mad at Leo and could easily vent her anger out at him. Leo sat down on a couch after he read he was supposed to be sitting in a small café.
"What the hell were you thinking, Austin?" Piper exploded. She stormed up to the couch and slapped Leo across the face. "What are you talking about?" Leo asked, looking up. "You have a wife! You have kids! Did they just slip your mind when you hit on me yesterday?"
"Of course not!" Leo exclaimed as he stood up. He set his hand on the side of Piper's face, which sent shivers down Piper's spine. "You're just so beautiful…" Piper pushed Leo's hand away. "Get off me! You have no right to touch me!"
"So you're saying you didn't have any feelings for me when I met you?" Leo asked. Piper could feel tears well up in her eyes and she let them spill dramatically. "Of course I did, Austin! You were so different! But you have an obligation to your wife!"
"Maybe I don't love her…like I love you." Piper looked down at her script. The next three words stopped Piper's breathing hard and fast. She looked back up at Leo. There was a glimmer in Leo's eyes as he captured Piper's lips.
The kiss brought back so many emotions that Piper's heart felt torn into a million pieces. She wanted to pull away and just yell at Leo for all the pain that he had caused her. Another part of her wanted the kiss to last forever and end up the way it had last time: on the bed.
Piper slowly pulled away. She looked down at her script and was glad to notice that they didn't have to kiss anymore. "Austin…" Piper started. "Jen, I know that we are both married. But aren't rules thrown out the door when true loves comes?"
Piper looked down at the lines she was supposed to say. She could tell Leo was trying to talk to her about what had happened but she didn't want to listen. This was strictly professional and she couldn't let her feelings get in the way.
"I don't know," Piper whispered. "I've never actually been in love before." Leo pulled Piper tight against his chest, which caught Piper off guard. There was nothing in the script about a hug as he was saying his lines.
"If you trust me, I can show you what true love is." Leo explained softly. He hooked his index finger under Piper's chin and lifted her head. "But I need to know that you will follow me wherever I lead you." Piper's head cringed at the corny words but she ignored them.
"I will," Piper answered softly. Leo pulled Piper back into a kiss and immediately deepened it. Oh, God, Piper thought. She moaned and opened her mouth to Leo. Every feeling she had ever had for Leo came fluttering into her stomach.
Elijah cleared his throat. Piper pulled away quickly and wiped her mouth. She tried to look as if she had only been acting, but they both knew she hadn't been. Piper and Leo looked over at Elijah. Tears were creeping out of his eyes and he was gripping the arm of his chair.
"That was bloody brilliant!" Elijah exclaimed. "You two have such chemistry. It's almost as if you've both loved each other before." Piper's head snapped towards Leo. She could see the love for her was still in his eyes. Piper crossed her arms and looked back at Elijah.
"There is no doubt in my mind that you shouldn't play Jen, Piper." Piper tried to hide her surprise. She wanted the part, but she didn't want to play it with Leo. "If you'll just hold on a second, I'll go get both of your contracts." Elijah stood and rushed out of the room.
Piper spun on Leo and let out the rest of her emotions. "You probably thought that was really smooth, didn't you? Putting in the extra kiss? Well, guess what, it was stupid! You need to get over me, because I know I am so sick of you!"
Leo took a step towards Piper and looked down at her. Piper tried to hide her shiver as Leo's chest touched her. Leo had grown quite a bit since high school, and now stood about 5 inches taller than Piper. His blonde hair was tousled and his green eyes burned into Piper.
"Do you really expect me to forget you, Piper?" Leo questioned so softly Piper barely heard him. He set his hand on Piper's cheek again. Piper closed her eyes and tried suppressing all of her feelings but they shone through her pain.
Leo leaned down and softly captured Piper's lips. Piper wanted desperately to tell her body not to love Leo anymore but it wasn't that simple. She had spent so many days crying over him that nothing could tear her away.
Before Piper knew what was happening she was all over Leo. Her hands ran through his hair and down his neck. So many canned up emotions burst through the kiss as Leo started to pull at Piper's shirt. Piper didn't stop him.
Leo made his way towards the couch and pulled Piper down on top of him. Suddenly the handle twisted and the door started to open. Piper pulled away in a flash and moved as close to the arm of the couch as was comfortable.
Elijah came back in holding two contracts. "Okay, take these and read them over. Once you're done I have pens for you to sign at the bottom." Piper's eyes saw the words but she couldn't wrap her head around them. Leo was still fresh in her mind.
Finally she was able to push loving thoughts out of her head for three minutes so she could finish the contract. Once she had signed it Piper and Elijah talked about the shooting schedule. Piper shook Leo's hand before she left and felt a piece of paper stick between her fingers.
Piper stepped outside the room and quietly shut the door behind her. She opened the scrap and found four words scrawled onto the paper. "Wait for me outside," it said. Piper closed her eyes and leaned back against the wall.
Everything that had just happened ran through Piper's head. She couldn't think. It felt just like years ago when Prue had tested their love. Now the same thing was happening all over again and Piper didn't know what to do.
The paragraph that Piper had read continuously in the contract stuck in her mind. "You are not allowed to date or have open feelings for any member of the cast unless they relate to the script." Now they had no chance of getting together.
Wait, it's not like I want to get back together with him! Piper thought suddenly. Then the kissing entered her mind. Did she really want to love him? They had been so close to sleeping together right there on the couch that Piper was scared.
The door handle twisted. Piper jumped and stared at the door. She knew that she couldn't see Leo again until the shooting started. It would only joggle her mind more. Piper pulled her coat on and ran down the hallway.
Leo opened the door and looked around. Piper had fled. Leo closed the door behind him and leaned against the wall. He could tell Piper had just been laying there thinking about the same thing that he was: the contract.
Emotions ran wild through Leo's brain. He couldn't think about anything but Piper. Finally he slammed the lid on his thoughts and pulled his coat on. Maybe they would get a chance to talk at the shooting the next week. Until then he would have to be satisfied with the tingle of Piper's kiss.
A/n: oo ho! Whats gonna happen, I wonder? Plz review!
