Moved on with a new start

Leo walked into the dining area sneaking up to Melanie. He wrapped his arms around her neck and kissed her cheek. She smiled and finished drawing her dress. Leo saw the papers scattered all over.

"I can't get the right design right" said Melanie.

"First time?" asked Leo.

"Yeah" said Melanie. "This is really my first stable relationship"

"You're drawing so many wedding dresses" said Leo. "They are really beautiful"

"Thanks" said Melanie.

Darryl walked in with Liz his arm around her waist.

"Gosh two months and I feel like pushing this monster out" said Liz laughing.

"Well three more to go" said Leo.

"I don't know how humans and witches do it" said Liz. "Nine months"

Darryl laughed. "This place is getting even more crowded"

"It's January right" said Leo.

"Yes" said Melanie annoyed.

"And the wedding is in October right?" asked Leo.

"Yeah on the 12th" said Melanie. "So what?"

"Why are you pressuring yourself" said Leo.

"I just want this to be okay" said Melanie.

"Oh Melanie you should've designed my gown" said Liz.

"Isn't it lovely?" asked Leo sarcastically. Melanie slapped his arm.

Cole walked in with the boys in his arms. He placed them on the ground where they made they way to their toys.

"What's this mess?" asked Cole.

On the large glass table, Liz's books and magazines on parenting and babies were spreaded all over the place, the boys' books were all over, Leo's and Melanie's wedding plans were also on the table and some of Cole's work papers.

"Don't you guys think it's time to move?" asked Darryl. "You know as part of the whole moving on gig"

Liz looked around at the mess. Two toddlers, two married couples, and another child on the way.

"We have memories here" said Cole.

Everyone looked at him.

"Ok more bad ones then good ones" said Cole shrugging. "But we came together here"

"Ok anyway" said Liz. "Let's just find a bigger place. Hello I'm having a kid"

"Yeah and three magical kids together in one small place" said Darryl.

"All right" said Cole. "I'll bring some ads home"

"Good" said Liz clapping.

"I have to get to work" said Darryl.

"Yeah me too" said Leo. "More potential whitelighters to look over"

He kissed Melanie.

"Why don't you and Liz go window shopping today" suggested Cole. "While the men work"

Liz shot an energy ball at his behind.

"Hey" cried Cole rubbing it.

Christian and Johnathan laughed and clapped.

"Thank you very much" said Liz bending down to play with the twins.

"My sister a mom now" said Cole.

"Well it was the spermanator's fault over there" said Liz pointing.

Darryl made a face.



"So how are you?" asked Leo.

He, Piper, and Paige were at a restaurant having lunch.

"I'm good" said Piper.

"Paige?"

"Yeah me too" she said.

Her red hair was a bit lighter and longer. Piper's had stayed the same. Paige did noticed something on Paige's finger.

"Your married?" cried Leo.

People stared and he blushed. Paige smiled and nodded.

"About time" she said hugging Leo.

"Wow, who and when?" asked Leo.

"Derek and last year" said Paige. "He found out about our secret and was real cool about it. He said he went through a New Age phase some years ago"

"Wow that's great" said Leo.

"So speaking of marriages" said Piper. "How did The Elders handle your new fiance?. She killed a lot of people including that whitelighter"

Leo made a face.

"Well they were more furious than us getting married" said Leo. "But Melanie took a pledge to be good or she would be banished to the Underworld, plus she saved a few innocents in the process"

Piper nodded.

"So Darryl and Cole's sister" said Paige. "What's that like?"

"Those two go at it like rabbits" said Leo. "Her pregnancy is five months but Cole told them to savor it before their child comes along. We have to move out of the penthouse cause our family is growing"

"I'm glad you're happy, Leo" said Piper.

"I heard about Phoebe's book deal" said Leo.

"Yeah it's due in a few months" said Piper. "She's quite the celebrity"

"Sort of like Dr. Phil" said Paige. Her cell phone rang. "Excuse me"

She got up and went towards the bathroom.

"I'm sorry things didn't work out between us" said Leo.

"Hey" said Piper. "It's fine, I'm still dating Nicholas"

"Really" said Leo surprised.

"Looks like we found our soulmates" said Piper.

"Well Piper I really have to go" said Leo kissing her cheek.

"Bye" said Piper.

Leo left as Paige came back.

"That was Derek and he wants to go to the charity ball" said Paige. "With you and Nicholas"

"Great" said Piper smiling.



Phoebe was applying her makeup in her room. She examined her blue gown.

"Looking good Pheebs" she said to herself. "Looking good"

"Yeah you are" said a voice.

Phoebe turned towards the door and grimaced.

"Who let you in?" asked Phoebe angrily.

"Derek" said Jason smirking. "Look you're just my date for the evening for publicity" said Phoebe.

Jason put his hand over his heart.

"Oh that hurt" said Jason. "Look the limo is here. Let's go"

Phoebe gathered her purse and left with Jason.



Derek kissed Paige's neck.

"No demons tonight I hope" said Derek.

"No way" said Paige putting on Prue's pearl necklace. "Come on we're going to be late"

Derek kissed her.

"I guess we can be late" said Paige.



Phoebe walked into the beautiful charity ball with her arm around Jason.

"Let's mingle" said Phoebe.

"Whatever you say" said Jason.

Piper and Nicholas were sipping wine at a table.

"This is beautiful" said Piper.

"You're beautiful" said Nicholas.

Piper spotted Leo and Melanie at a corner talking. Melanie seemed to look very tired. If they were here maybe.



"Care to dance?" asked Jason.

Phoebe took his hand and they waltzed.

"You know Phoebe we should really have another go at it" said Jason.

"In your dreams, jerk" said Phoebe.

"Someone hit menopause" said Jason.

Phoebe looked to her side and her heart stopped. By the buffet table all alone was Cole Turner.

What is he doing here?, thought Phoebe.

She deliberately waltzed towards that direction. Cole spotted her and his eyes grew wide.

"Cole" cried Phoebe.

Jason cleared his throat.

"Phoebe" said Cole uncomfortably.

"Where's your kids?" asked Phoebe.

"With Liz and Darryl at home" said Cole.

"What are you doing here?" asked Phoebe.

"My law firm is co-sponsoring this charity ball" said Cole. "Congratulations on the new celebrity status"

"Thanks" said Phoebe.

"Phoebe I think our dinner is at the table" said Jason annoyed.

"Well bye Cole" said Phoebe walking away.

Leo and Melanie walked up.

"What was that all about?" asked Leo suspiciously.

"I don't know" said Cole. "I just don't know her anymore"

Whew!! Hope that was good. Please RevIeW!
