Chapter Three - The Prom

Leo's POV
The afternoon they had spent together was amazing. They went to one of the few pure nature spots of San Francisco and had a wonderful time there.
He had brought her home at 8 in the evening and then he drove home himself.

Piper's POV
Piper walked into the Manor and sat down on the couch. She heard her sisters fighting upstairs and her grams trying to stop them.
'I'm home!' She yelled.
Prue came running down the stairs and jumped down next to her.
'Where have you been all day?' She asked.
'Been out with Leo...' She answered.
'Been out with Leo? But you had school.'
'I know,' She smiled, 'He asked me during lunch...'
Her sister hugged her, 'That's so great, Pipes!'
'I know!'
After half an hour she walked upstairs to make her homework and to take a shower.
The phone rang, 'I'll get it!' She yelled.
When she picked it up and said her name, she heard Leo.
'Hey Pipes!' She could hear him smile.
'Hey Leo.'
'I wanted to ask you something.'
'Sure, what?'
'Well, um... I...'
'What's going on, mr. Wyatt lost his voice?' She laughed.
'Not funny, Pipes,' he smiled.

Leo's POV
'Will you go to the prom with me?' He asked.
'W-What?'
'Will you be my date to the prom?'
He heard that she was shocked.
'Well?'
'Of course I do, Leo, what would you think I would say?'
'I don't know...' He said. 'Just glad you want to...'
'Of course I would!' She replied.
'Ok, what time shall I pick you up?'
'7ish?'
'That's ok, see you then... Love you!'
'Bye.'
He hung up the phone and lay down on his bed. He had just said he loved her, did she notice?
After a few minutes he decided to go get ready for the prom and got his tux out of the closet. He did his hair and walked down to wait until it was time to pick up Piper.

Piper's POV
He had said it, he had actually said it.
He loved her! He... Loved... Her... Piper Halliwell... Geek of the year. She smiled widely, when she walked up the stairs to put on her dress.
'He loves me!' She yelled into Prue's room.
Prue looked at her. 'Who?'
'Leo! Leo loves me!' She couldn't stop smiling.
'Aww Pipes, that's so sweet!'
'He asked me to the prom, so will you help me with the hair and make-up?'
'Sure hun.'
'Thanks sis, I love you!'
'Love you too, now go get on that dress you bought!'
Piper nodded and ran to her room.
She got her dress and put it on. It was a white dress with on the corset small red roses. The bottom was in a cinderella kind of way. She had loved it as soon as she saw it.
She walked back into Prue's room, no one except Grams had seen it.
Her other two sisters were in the room now too.
'Piper? You look beautiful!' Phoebe said.
'Thanks Pheebs,' She smiled, 'Glad you like it...'
'Like it? I love it!' Phoebe hugged her sister.
Piper smiled. 'Thanks... Prue will you do my hair now?'
Prue nodded. 'Right away Piper's.'
Piper sat down and let Prue go her way. After an hour she was finished. Prue had covered the mirror so that Piper couldn't see what she was going to look like.
When her youngest sister Paige took of the towel off the mirror, she gasped.
'Wow... Prue, Thank you!'
Piper had her hair hanging loose and in curls, it was glittering and had a thin diadem in it. Her make-up was a light mascara and blush, her eyeshadow was silvery, she also had lipgloss on. There was only one word for the way she looked: Beautiful!

Piper & Leo's POV
Leo went over to Piper when it was a quarter to seven. He didn't want to be too early, but not too late either.
He rang the doorbell. He had a red rose in his hand for Piper.
Prue answered it. 'Hey Leo, come in...'
'Hey Prue, is she ready?'
'Almost, sit down...' She lead him to the living room.
He sat down and waited for Piper to come down. After a few minutes he saw Phoebe and Paige coming down.
'Tada...' They said smiling.
He looked at the stairs and saw her coming down. She looked so beautiful, the white dress looked so great on her. He stood up and lend her his hand, she took it and walked the last few flights.
'You look beautiful, Pipes!' He said smiling.
'Thank you, Leo...' She said, 'You look wonderful yourself.'
She kissed him and when they parted, they were smiling.
'Well I guess we should get going...' Leo said.
'Guess we should...'
Leo smiled.
'Grams, we're going...' She said. 'See you three tonight...'
She waved at her sisters and walked outside.
They stepped into Leo's car and drove to school.
When they arrived at the building, Leo walked to Piper's door to open it for her.
'Here we go, miss Halliwell, I'm your date for the evening.'
She laughed and got out of the car. Hand in hand they walked into the school.
'I love you, Leo' She said before they went in the 'ballroom'.
'And I love you too, Piper!' he said, he squeezed her hand and they walked in. When the people that were already there saw who entered, Piper and Leo heard gasps.
'Halliwell is that you?' Missy asked.
Piper and Missy had been rivals since the day they met.
'All me, Missy...'
Missy marched away and glanched once more at them.
'Ooh, I hate that girl so much!' Piper hissed.
Leo grinned. 'Leave her to it, Pipes, she's just jealous.'
Piper hugged him. 'Shall we go dancing?'
Leo nodded. 'Come on!'
They walked to the dancefloor and began dancing. Leo twirled Piper around, they had the time of their lives.

Then it was time for the crowning of Prom King and Queen. Everyone knew that Leo Wyatt was one of the nominees. But they were sure that Piper Halliwell wasn't one of the queens, nobody liked her.
Their principal stepped onto the stage and asked them to be quiet. Everyone went to the stage and waited for the principal to talk.
'I want to welcome everybody to your senior prom. And now for the most important happening of the evening, the prom king and queen crowning.'
They applaused.
'I liked to get our selected kings here with me, Ben Kingsley, Teddy Forham and... Leo Wyatt!'
Everybody yelled.
'And now our selected queens, Missy Edwards, Mira Summers and... Piper Halliwell?'
OMG, she though, even the principal is surprised.
She stepped onto the stage and looked at the crowd in the rest of the ballroom.
Piper sighed, she looked at Leo. He was smiling.
'I love you.' He mouthed.
'Love you too.' She mouthed back.
They smiled and turned back to the principal.
'Ok, the time has come to choose our king and queen. When you hear your name, please step next to me for the crowning.
Our prom king of 1989 is...' Drum roffles.
'Leo Wyatt!'
Everyone yelled and clapped.
Leo stepped forward and one of the promorganization came forward with the crown. he crowned Leo and let him to the microphone.
'Hey all. Thank you for the voting on me, cause I'm glad. I also hope that my girl isn't too mad at me for entering her as queen. I wanted her to feel special in this school for once. Thanks again and enjoy your night.'
He stepped back from the microphone for the queen to be chosen.
'And now our queen. Our prom queen of 1989 is...' Drum roffles again. 'Piper Halliwell!'
It went quiet, nobody said a word. Then when Leo started clappping a few more joined and soon everybody clapped.
Piper stepped forward and the same guy who crowned Leo, crowned her too. Now it was her time to go to the microphone.
'Hey... I don't really know what to say what went through my mind when I heard mr. Buffay saying my name. I'm happy, that's for sure. And to answer Leo's question, I'm not mad at him, not at all. And I know nobody likes me much, but I wanted to thank all of you... Enjoy your night, cause I'm sure I will enjoy mine!'
Piper walked over to Leo and took his hand, they were supposed to dance their king & queen dance. Together they walked to the dancefloor and a slow dance started.

3 hours later it was time to go home. Piper and Leo walked back to Leo's car and stepped in.
'I'm not angry at you, Leo' She said smiling. 'I wanna thank you for it, I'm glad you did it...'
'Then I'm good, I wanted you as my queen and not Missy or Mira, you!'
The rest of the frive they were silent. When they pulled off at the Manor, Piper was pretty tired.
They got out of the car and walked to the door.
'Goodnight, Pipes... I love you!' He kissed her.
'Goodnight yourself... Love you too!' She kissed him back. Then she opened the door.
'I'll call you in the morning.'
'Ok, Bye!'
She walked inside and saw her sisters.
'Hey,' She said and sat down at the sofa. Her sisters noticed the crown and gasped.
'You're the prom queen?' Paige shreecked.
Piper nodded. 'Yep!'
'Who's the king?' Phoebe asked smiling.
'Leo is...'
'That's great, sis. Congratulations!' Prue said.
'Thanks...' She said smiling. 'But if you don't mind, I'm kinda tired, so I'm going to bed...'
She got up and went to bed. She fell asleep satisfied and happy.
