Hey guys , sorry that it took me thaaaaaaaaat long to update , but I had an accident with a car and now I´m studying and got a looooooooooot to do…thanks to all of you who have been waiting..

They all turned around when they heard another person say :"I can answer that question. "

"How on hell can you answer that question , you're just-sorry buddy ,

but you're a mortal." ,Paul asked him.

"Well ." , he looked towards Piper

"do you guys remember the 4th of April 2004 ?"

now tears appeared in some of the Halliwell´s eyes but

especially Piper remembered that date very , very intense and well . The 4th of April had been the worst day of her entire life :

All the five Halliwells were playing in the garden , a little puppy , which obviously had escaped from his home ran toward Piper .

"Hey sweaty , what are you doing here ? " , Piper asked the puppy and caressed it .

The puppy didn't seem to be older than a month , with his long brown coat and big eyes he ran across the garden and enjoyed the Halliwells attention .

"Mom , can we keep him . Pleaaaaaaaaase" , Phoebe asked her mom trying to look very sweet.

"Honey that's impossible . That little dog belongs to someone maybe a little girl like you . And right now this little girl is looking for him and feels really sad because she misses him. " , her mother answered.

Phoebe was stunned , of course , there could be someone who misses him .

"Well , mom you're right , then we have to find her ."

Piper took that little puppy up and kissed him on his nose

"Oh you're that sweet."

Suddenly the puppy sprang out of Piper's hug and ran towards a person that had called Piper.

Piper didn't really realize the dangerous situation , the puppy was running towards her friend , who crossed the street and the fence wasn´t closed .

"No , no stop ." , she cried but the little puppy didn't stop ,

he wanted to welcome the new person .

But it was too late , the car was too fast and didn't see the small animal :

"Leeeeeeeeeeeeeo – the puppy." , was all that Piper managed to say .

Leo was stunned , which puppy??

Suddenly he realized the situation and when he saw that car and the little sweet puppy he didn't hesitated and jumped a little forward to catch it and he caught it but…

The next thing Piper saw was the little puppy lying dead in the corner .

She couldn't stand to look at him , all she felt was fury , why had Leo called her name and why hadn't he managed to save the little sweet puppy ?

Suddenly she recognized that she didn't see Leo.

Where was he?

The man in the car ran to the other side of his car and called the ambulance .

Then he started to cry .

Piper walked with a bad feeling towards this old man and was shocked when she saw her old friend lying at the edge of the street , blood around his face and eyes closed.

She ran towards him and pressed his body against hers :"No , nooooooooooooo" ,

She felt that sorry and shamed that she had been furious at Leo .

She felt like a bad person , as if she had killed his friend :"Don't die , please don't die , I didn't want to kill you …I am not able to live without you…it's my fault if you die…Leeeeeeeeeeo. You can not dieeeeeeeee"

The next thing she remembered was that the ambulance came and took him away .

He was lying in a coma for months and one day – it seemed like magic-he was standing in front of Piper :

"Hi Piper , I am back on earth ."

"Well I´m sorry Piper , that I didn't tell you , well all of you …on that date…"

Leo was interrupted by Prue :"Leo , we all know that you're sorry that you didn't save the puppy but it wasn't your fault , how often shall we explain that?

But really , how could it be that you know anything about the incident and how Phoebe managed to stay alive?"

"Well , I kinda saved her . " , Leo explained and blushed a little.

"So , you're my hero" , Phoebe answered proudly and hugged him .

"No , no I'm just…"

"Just , how can you say just…you're just a mortal who saved a little witch and by the way other 6 witches and a half-demon from being killed by demons .

Which by the way no one of them –with powers-had managed…?" , Piper laughed but was a little irritated when Leo blushed and stumbled . What was wrong with him? He seemed so guilty .

"Well , no it's not like that… I … I….."

What does Leo try to say?

Will Piper cope with his reveal?

How did he manage to save her as a mortal?

Question, questions , questions…
