"Oh my god." Piper stared up into Cole's eyes after he'd pulled back for several seconds, and then she pulled him back down for another kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she pressed herself against him.

Everything came back in a rush. Meeting him in that bar after Leo had left, bringing him dinner, the long conversations they'd had when they were still just friends, working out with him, kissing him, making love…

When they finally broke the kiss, Piper put a hand to his cheek, smiling and Cole sat up, not letting her go. She ended up in his lap, still pressed up against him.

"We're alone now." He whispered to her and for the first time she noticed that Chris wasn't in the room anymore. She felt a brief moment of gratitude towards the white lighter for that before she was leaning forward to kiss him again.

"Please tell me you remember." Chris said as soon as Phoebe and Paige orbed into the manor.

"Remember what?" Paige asked, starting into the kitchen to get something to eat.

"Uh. Cole?" He said a little tentatively, remembering their reaction last time he'd brought Cole's name up.

"What about him?" Phoebe asked. "He's with Piper, isn't he?"

"Thank you!" Chris yelled, all the frustration he'd been feeling over the past weeks leaving. "You do remember." He frowned. "But you don't remember not remembering." Paige frowned as well.

"Chris, what are you talking about?"

"So, wait." Paige stood up. "You're saying that someone erased our memories." Piper nodded, leaning into Cole's side. She hadn't been able to let go of him since she had remembered everything.

"Just the memories of us." She indicated Cole and herself.

"But why would anyone want to do that?"

"Maybe because they couldn't kill either of you?" Phoebe suggested. "I mean Piper's a charmed one and Cole's invincible."

"Still, why would anyone want to keep us apart? And I'm not invincible." Piper said.

"No, but your dating someone who is. Think about it, together you're pretty much unstoppable. Or, it could just be payback."

"Maybe. We need to find out who it is, so it doesn't happen again."

"We will."

"Whoever it is won't try it this way again, not after it failed." Phoebe said, making her way upstairs to the attic.

"Yeah. Question is what they're going to try now. I mean, whoever this is, are they after Cole or Piper or all of us? I mean, are we sure that it's a demon?"

"Don't know. Piper's right, we do need to find them."

"Yeah, but how? We don't have anything to go on. Except the fact that whoever it is, is powerful enough to erase the memories of everyone person who knew that Piper and Cole were together."

"True. So, whoever this is obviously didn't count on Chris." Phoebe went over to the book and opened it. "Or that we just wouldn't believe him. Which would be true. I mean, none of us trusted Cole before Piper started talking to him again."

"Yeah, some of us hated him too." Paige reminded her. Phoebe smiled a little at her sister. Paige still didn't particularly like Cole.

"You think Chris found anything?"

Piper pulled Cole closer to her as he set her on her knees on his bed. The kiss that they hadn't broken since he had shimmered them out of the manor and to his place was still going as Piper pushed his jacket off his shoulders. She only broke it when his shirt needed to go and she stopped for a moment, staring into his eyes.

"I love you." She whispered. He smiled at her.

"Love you too." And then they were kissing again and the both of them fell back on his bed.

"Hey, Leo." Paige smiled as he orbed in some time later. Phoebe had gone already.

"Hey. I heard about what happened." Paige nodded and closed the book with a sigh.

"Yeah, unfortunately we can't really do anything about it. Not a lot to go on." Paige watched him for a moment. "I know this still isn't exactly easy for you." Leo gave her a half smile and sat down on the couch.

"Its okay, Paige. I mean, it's hard sometimes, but I think seeing her move on, really move on is helping me do the same." Paige walked over to sit next to him.

"Well, if you ever need to talk, I'm here." She offered, and Leo's smile widened.

"Thanks."

Piper smiled, content, as she rested her head on Cole's shoulder and watched him sleep. She felt at peace for the first time in weeks. She felt complete, whole.

She still remembered the weeks after he had disappeared from her life. Her sisters did as well, but they didn't seem to think anything strange had happened. Whatever spell that was cast seemed to work in a way that they didn't think anything strange about the fact that they hadn't seen Cole over the past weeks, that was until Piper had pointed it out to them.

Despite how angry she was that someone would do this, she was still relieved that they loved each other enough to come back from it. All it had taken was a kiss to break the spell, after all.

Still, she shuddered slightly when she thought of what might have happened if she hadn't cast that spell that brought Cole to her, of what might have happened if Chris hadn't been there.

True, she had been miserable when Leo left, but she had closure with him. She knew where he was and why he had left. The last few weeks, though, she had been feeling like she was missing a part of herself and she hadn't known why. And that was worse.

She doubted that Cole would have ever come back to San Francisco on his own. Before they had started talking, they hadn't liked each other much. In fact, Piper was willing to admit that she might have hated him a little bit for what he did to Phoebe.

There were so many possibilities. Would they still have ended up here if she had chosen a different bar to go to that night? Would he have stayed in San Francisco, but for Phoebe?

None of that mattered, she guessed. All that did matter was that they were together and that they were happy. She loved him. And she wouldn't lose him, no matter who it was messing with them.

Chris reappeared back in P3 with a sigh. He hadn't found anything yet about whoever it was out to get Piper and Cole. Of course, he had been searching for a while now and nothing. He had known it wouldn't be quick but it was still frustrating.

Whoever it was had to be stepping up their plans and he knew that it had to be something he'd changed while in the past. The only major thing he'd changed so far was helping the sisters get rid of the titans a little bit earlier, which helped save most of the elders.

He didn't like lying to the girls, especially the lie about how Paige died, but he did need them to trust him. So, he'd lied and Paige actually did die a few years after what he'd told Piper and Phoebe.

At least Piper and Cole were back on track. That was a must. Neither would live long without the other, Chris had seen that firsthand.

If he couldn't fix the future, he had to at least make sure that he didn't screw it up worse. Piper and Cole had to stay together. There were so many times that Piper could have died, and a lot sooner than she did, if it weren't for Cole.

Leo was there too, although for different reasons this time around, so it didn't seem like he'd screwed things up too bad.

"Cole!" Piper cried, diving off the side of the bed as an energy ball was sent in her direction. Cole jerked awake, standing quickly to face the demon that had shimmered into his bedroom.

The demon sent another but it only knocked Cole back a step before he sent his own. Piper watched as the demon was vanquished, and stood up, holding the sheet around herself and warily looking for more demons.

A few seconds later, several more did shimmer in and they were suddenly engaged in a battle. All of them seemed to be focused on Cole, and barely looked in Piper's direction, not even when she blew two of them up.

Neither of them noticed the figure that appeared behind Cole or the potion vial until it was thrown, connecting with Cole's back. Cole stopped short as he was preparing to throw another energy ball, and stood still, stunned.

The second was enough for the last of the demons to hit its mark. This time, however, Cole was thrown off his feet by the attack. Piper raised her hands and blew the demon up.

"Cole?" Piper made her way over to him as he sat up. "You okay?" He nodded, frowning.

"Yeah, I think so." She frowned as well.

"Are you sure?"

"I don't know." He admitted, looking down at himself. "I feel a little…weird, I guess." He started to get up, inadvertently setting his hand in the broken remnants of the lamp that he had knocked over when he'd jumped out of bed. He winced, pulling his hand back.

"Cole…?" Piper stared. The wound didn't heal.

"I don't understand." The young man said, following the woman into the office. "Why not just strip his powers?" The woman gave him an annoyed look.

"I have told you why. If you will just remember what happened the last time someone tried to strip his powers…" She smiled a little. "All I had to do was make sure he is no longer invincible. Only stripping that one power…Now all we have to do is convince them of the threat that he poses."
