I've decided to update because, well, I've got nothing better to do. I'm no expert on violent scenes so I apologize if this seems unbelievable.
Let's give it a go...
The Halliwell sisters decided that they'd take a day off from work/school. Phoebe became upset about the fact that they hardly have time to spend with each other.
"It's like the only quality time we spend together is when we're vanquishing a demon."
"I understand, Pheebs. With my photo shoots and Piper's club, not to mention you're going back to school...This day of "playing hooky" was a great idea."
Phoebe smiled at Prue. She entertained the thought that her oldest sister was actually praising her for something. Who would have imagined such an event taking place a few years ago?
"I'm going to take a quick shower, then check in on Piper. I think she's still asleep," Phoebe said.
"Okay. See you in a bit."
"A dozen, dozen red roses?" Piper asked Lonny over the phone. Apparently, someone had sent Piper roses to P3. Each rose had a small piece of paper wrapped around the stem with the words 'I love you, Piper Halliwell.'
"That is so odd. An anonymous sender..." Her mind instantly went to Leo. Was this what he was trying to tell her before Phoebe interrupted? It had to be him. Who else could it be? Before she drifted deeper into her thoughts, she ended her conversation with the bartender.
"Thanks, Lonny. See you tomorrow." With that, she placed the cordless back onto its base. A knock fell upon her bedroom door. To her surprise, it was Leo.
"Leo..."
"Piper, I had to talk to you. I just wanted you to know my feelings for you...they go deeper than me just being your whitelighter. I really want...I mean, I hope..." Stammering over his words, Piper decided to save him the stress and show him how she felt. She placed her lips upon his. Every feeling that they'd felt for each other was releases in that very moment. Although she really didn't want to, she pulled her lips away from Leo's.
"Yea, that's what I meant," Leo concluded. Piper giggled a little at his reaction.
"Thank you for the roses. You didn't have to, but it's a beautiful gesture."
"What roses?" Leo questioned. The look on his face let Piper know that he was genuinely confused.
"The roses...you sent to P3?" she replied with a hint of concern in her voice. Leo looked deep into her eyes as if he could read her.
"Piper?"
"Yes, Leo?"
"I didn't send you roses..."
The night it all changed...
"Kill It Before It Dies!" Phoebe squealed in reply to Prue's question about what movie they would watch.
"Phoebe, whenever we watch that movie, you always say the lines," Piper said in a voice that sounded annoyed, but was clearly understood as a joke.
"I won't this time. Promise!"
"Kill It Before It Dies...it is..." Prue said while popping the tape in the VCR.
"I'll get the popcorn," Piper offered. Phoebe jumped up behind her.
"I'll get the sodas." The girls walked arm-in-arm into the kitchen, playfully giggling at each other.
"So...what's going on with you and Leo?" Phoebe hinted like a school girl waiting for gossip.
"I'm not sure," Piper answered with a shy smile on her face. "He told me he wanted more than just a whitelighter-charge relationship. We aren't exactly dating, but we're definitely more than whitelighter and charge."
"Aww! I can't believe..." Before Phoebe could finish her sentence, the phone rang. Piper held up her index finger and Phoebe immediately took it as a 'to be continued' conversation. As Piper answered the phone, Phoebe carried the drinks to where Prue was.
"What do you mean my signature isn't on the band's contract?" There was a bit of a pause, time enough for her question to be answered. "But Lonny...fine. I'll be there in a few, but I absolutely cannot, under any circumstances, stay longer than that. I need to be with my sisters." She ended her call just as Prue and Phoebe entered the kitchen.
"Ready, Piper? Prue asked, grabbing the bowl of popcorn. Phoebe managed to grab a few before it was completely out of her reach.
"You guys are so gonna hate me..." Piper began.
"Oh, no, no, no! Piper, you can't leave!" Phoebe squealed. "Tonight is our night off. No school; no 415, and no P3!" She placed an extra emphasis on the 'no' preceding P3.
"I know, I know, Pheebs. I just need to sign some papers. Fifteen minutes at the most..." Piper tried to reason with her younger sister.
"Okay, Piper. Hurry back," Prue responded. She knew that the world was not on hold just because the Halliwell sisters wanted time together.
"What is it..." Phoebe glanced down at her watch. "10:28...we want you back here with us at 10:43." Piper giggled at her sister's persistence. She was instantly reminded of the time she had gotten her drivers license and Phoebe ran her ragged with rules.
"10:43 it is."
"I mean it, Piper. Not 10:44; not 10:50. Home by 10:43, Piper Halliwell, or else Prue and I storm through P3 looking for you," Phoebe threatened.
"Got it." Piper reached both arms around her sisters, kissing them both on the cheek. She wasn't sure why she did it; she just felt like it.
"Stay safe, sweetie," Prue called out before Piper closed the door.
"I will," Piper yelled as she locked the door behind her and headed to the club.
He watched her swift motions as if he were looking at a pure goddess. In his mind, she was his goddess. She walked so confident, lady-like. Only she could walk so gracefully. Her beautiful brown hair flew behind her as if a soft breeze had intertwined each strand, making its motion light and flowy...simply beautiful.
"Piper, thank goodness you're here." Lonny greeted Piper. His voice was thick with worry. "The band manager decided they won't play another song until you sign the contract."
"Okay. I'm going to my office to sign them. Why the hell wasn't this taken care if ahead of time?" She walked away from Lonny, not really expecting him to answer. She entered her office, the manager of the band close behind her.
"I am so sorry for the inconvenience. I'm usually so much better at making sure these things are handled prior to a band's performance." She explained.
"No problem, Miss Halliwell. I just want to do what's best for the band." She quickly scribbled her signature to the document, and handed it back to him.
"Thank you for your patience," she concluded. He thanked her, as well, and then exited her office. Before leaving for the night, she let Lonny know what was going on. She headed for the door in the back of the building, bopping her head slightly to the beat of the song playing. Glancing down at her watch, she realized that she was running late according to Phoebe's schedule.
"10:50? Phoebe is gonna kill me..." She quickened her steps to the back door's handle, pressing it, and then stepping out into the night.
Walking to her car, she glanced down at the outfit she wore: light purple spaghetti-strapped nightgown. She thought it okay since it came to her knees, and could easily be hidden by her jacket.
"I cannot believe I wore this out of the manor," she spoke aloud to herself. Dropping her keys, she bent over to pick them up and heard an unfamiliar voice.
"I like it," the man said. Piper quickly whirled around, her hair slightly covering her face in the direction of the spin.
"I'm sorry...do I know you?" she asked the man.
"Nope. But I know you. You are the most beautiful woman I've ever laid my eyes on," he answered. He closed the space between them, brushing the hair from her face. She quickly turned her face away from his hand and backed into her car. She managed to find her voice, although it was almost inaudible under the fear she felt at that moment.
"Sir, if you're looking for the band, you must go inside the club. This area is restricted..."
"I'm not here for the band." He took his jacket off and threw it to his feet. Piper knew what was soon going to happen. She immediately tried to scream, but failed. He placed his hand over her mouth before the sound could exit.
"Ah-ah, Piper. I've waited too long for this. For someone else to join in on our fun...it could be fatal," the man stated. Tears began to well in Piper's eyes as the hand over her mouth pushed harder into her face. She tried to push away from the man, using all the strength she could muster to push his upper body away from her. She soon followed up with punches and slaps to the man's face. This infuriated him as he struck her across the cheek, causing her to hit her head on the bumper of her car as she fell. As much as she wanted to be knocked out, she was conscious enough to live through the man's attack.
With one hand covering her mouth, he used his free arm to wrap around Piper's waist, and lift her. He'd rather do it behind his hummer. He threw Piper to the ground behind the huge, black car.
"Please, don't do this," she pleaded. A sudden thought crossed her mind. 'Freeze him.' As she lifted her hands for the motion, the man pulled a butcher knife out of the back of his pants.
"Any sudden movements, screaming, or anything that keeps me from getting the job done..." He motioned the knife to his own throat as if he were ready to cut. She quickly dropped her hands and cried.
"Take off your jacket." Afraid of being hurt any more than what he was about to do, she did what he'd told her to do. The way he looked at her made her want to scrub herself. "Good. Now I want you to close your eyes and lay on your back." Piper decided to plead once more.
"Please...don't do this..."
"Do it!" he yelled.
She immediately shut her eyes, and did what she was told. The man disrobed and placed his body on top of hers. She gasped at his touch as he kissed the corner of her mouth, then her neck, then collar bone, etc...He placed both of her arms above her head, but held them in place with his left hand. Tears poured down Piper's cheeks as she tried not to let her sobs escape her. His hands slid up her thigh as he removed everything that prevented him. With one swift movement, he penetrated her. Piper tried to scream but was prevented in doing so when the man began to kiss her, his tongue violating her mouth. His steady in and out movement began to pick up speed as he moaned and repeated over and over 'I love you, Piper Halliwell' in a low whisper. The faster his movements became, the more Piper wanted to scream. Each thrust inside of her was deeper than the previous until, finally, the man filled her completely. She'd never experienced so much pain during intercourse. She felt him release inside of her.
After a few minutes, she'd mentally removed herself from the situation. The only words she repeated was 'make it stop, Prue' as Prue has always protected her. Prue stood up to bullies in grade school, and defended her to the boyfriends that treated her badly. She just wanted her big sister to make this man stop hurting her. 'Prue, make it stop.'
Five minutes had passed, but seemed eternal. He removed himself from inside her and rolled to her side. She refused to open her eyes. The same thought still played in her head.
"You were...better than I'd imagined. I am so glad I found you. I love you, Piper Halliwell." Her eyes remained closed. She wouldn't open them until he left. The man stood up and dressed himself while humming "My Cherie Amour." After he finished, he bent over and pulled Piper's gown down to cover her. One last time, he whispered in her ear 'I love you, Piper Halliwell.' He kissed her, got into his Hummer, and pulled off.
