Thankyou once again for your awesome reviews :D

Disclaimer: I don't own charmed

Piper sat in room 210 and tapped her pencil repeatedly on the wooden desk. She sighed and glanced at her wristwatch for the billionth time. 3:15. 'Where the hell was this kid?' She thought. 'This is two days in a row.' Just as she was about to get up and leave, a student walked through the door.

She sat back down without looking about "It's about time you showed up. Let's not waste anytime, what subject do you need help in?" She said, pulling out 6 heavy textbooks from her book bag.

When she got no reply, Piper peered up at the student. "I said, what --- "

'Oh my god…'

"Leo man where you going?" asked Derek

"Um home…my dad wanted me to help him with something" he lied

"What? Did you forget? We have a big game today!"

"Yea…I know…but coach has me benched for the next couple of games…so my dad is seriously pissed at me." Leo lied again

"Dude, what are you saying? Are you like grounded or something…?"

"Um…sure…you could say that…"

"Yo but what is the team gonna do without you? What am I gonna do without you?"

"Iunno, play the game I guess."

"Argh! Fuck man!"

"Sorry"

"Yea whatever man…I gotta get to practice…and oh by the way…Andrea is looking for you…"

'Fuck' he thought. Leo checked his watch…3:10…he was late for tutoring…oh well…

"LEOOOOO!"

'Shit'

"Hey baby" Andrea came up and kissed him.

"Hey" he said lifelessly

Andrea ignored his blunt tone. "So I was thinking…you wanna do something tonight…you know you could come over and we could watch a movie or something…my parents aren't home." She emphasized the last bit.

"Uh no sorry I can't I gotta do something for my dad."

"Aww."

"Yea…well I gotta go…" he said pushing past her.

"Wait… Don't you have a football game?"

"Uh coach doesn't want me to play tonight…he says I need to save my energy for when we play Monday."

"Oh ok…well bye Baby…" she kissed him again.

"Bye." He said, a little glad that she was leaving. 'Now, where the hell is room 210?" After wandering aimlessly through the school's massive hallways he finally came to the godforsaken room 210. He took a deep breathe before entering, and finally stepped in.

"It's about time you showed up. Let's not waste anytime, what subject do you need help in?" said a girl's voice

Leo stopped. He couldn't speak; his voice was lost somewhere in his throat. 'Oh my god…it's Piper…the girl with the beautiful, long brown hair…' He couldn't believe that Piper Halliwell was tutoring HIM. 'Maybe tutoring won't be so bad after all." He thought.

She finally looked up to face him. The look on her face was filled with as much shock as Leo's had.

"You…" she said softly

Leo looked confused. 'Me what?' he thought

"You? I'm suppose to be tutoring you?" she said

Leo was a bit offended "What's so bad about you tutoring me?"

Piper didn't answer. Instead she said "I have to go…"

"What? But wait…you're my tutor you can't just walk out on me." Leo protested

"I'm sorry…I totally forgot my sister wanted my home early today to um…help her with something" she mumbled as she furiously threw her textbooks back into her bag. Piper quickly ran out of the room without looking back.

"Wait!" Leo shouted, but it was no use. She was gone.

Ring Ring Ring

'C'mon Roshi pick up…pick up…please!' "DAMMIT!" Piper threw the phone back onto its receiver.

"Piper?" Phoebe poked her head through Piper's bedroom door. "Are you ok?"

"I'm fine!" she yelled

"You don't sound fine…what's wrong?" she said, pushing the door wider and walking in.

"Nothing…I said I'm fine."

"Piper…I know you better than anyone else…and I certainly know you well enough to know when something's wrong." She persisted

Piper sighed before answering. "…I have to tutor Leo Wyatt…"

Phoebe started laughing and Piper looked at her offended. "What!"

"That's it?" she said still chuckling

"What do you mean that's it? That's gotta be like the worst punishment ever…I'd rather have a detention."

"What's so bad about tutoring Leo Wyatt? He's pretty hot you know"

"He's so snobby and stuck up."

"I've never heard sucha thing. Why don't you just give him a chance? You don't even know him…you can't just judge people like that."

"Mr. Wyatt!"

"Yes?" Leo answered, breaking out of his daydreams

"Answer to question 14!" prodded Ms. Dale

"Iunno…"

"You don't know?" she said more as a statement than a question.

"No"

"…And why don't you know?" she peered at him from behind her glasses.

"Coz I just don't"

Ms. Dale continued to stare at him for a few minutes. Roshi, Piper's best friend turned around from her seat in the second row to look at him. He couldn't tell whether it was a look of sympathy or shock.

"Mr. Wyatt…I'll deal with you after class…"

"No Piper we cannot re-assign you another student." Said Mr. O'Malley

"But sir I'd really appreciate it if you did" she protested

"No, I'm sorry Piper, but tutors and students have already been permanently assigned for the rest of the school year."

Piper sighed…she was stuck…out of options.

"…I'm sorry Piper, you're just gonna have to tutor Mr. Wyatt for the remainder year. Now I know you don't really like him…but out in the real world you'll always be dealing with people that you don't like…you're just gonna have to learn how to co-operate despite your differences."

"Mr. Wyatt have you been attending your tutoring sessions?"

"Yes I have" Leo lied. He couldn't mention that his tutor had just walked out on him without even explaining.

Ms. Dale nodded before continuing, "I see…then how come you're not caught up with the pace of the rest of the class."

Leo didn't answer.

"Mr. Wyatt…if this is the last option…I will be willing to tutor you myself."

"No! I mean…I'm fine with my tutor." He said quickly. Leo could barely stand Ms. Dale as his math teacher…now she wanted to be his tutor? He would seriously consider transferring schools if it came to such.

"So be it…but if I find within the next few weeks that you still have not caught up…I WILL tutor you myself."

"I promise you I will be caught up and beyond."

"That's not a very satisfying promise…but you may go to lunch now Mr. Wyatt."

Leo left the classroom as quickly as possible. He always felt like he couldn't breathe in her classroom…it was almost as if the walls were closing in on him…suffocating him. Suddenly, he caught sight of Roshi walking past him.

"Hey!" he called out to her

She whirled around in surprise to face him

"Yes?"

"I need to ask you ask you a question…"

"…o-ok…" she said nervously

"Why doesn't Piper like me?" He noticed that her eye's had shifted to stare uncomfortably at the ground.

"What makes you think that?"

"Because she refuses to tutor me and I wanna know why."

"I'm not obligated to answer any questions directed at her." she replied

Leo sighed. "Please…I know you're her best friend…But I need to know…please…"

"You'll have to ask her yourself…I'm sorry." Roshi quickly left and ran off.

Piper sat in the cafeteria alone, reading her book, oblivious to everything around her. Suddenly, her light had been slightly dimmed by a shadow. She was almost afraid to look up. But there he was, just peering at her. She stood up abruptly ready to run off.

"Look! Please don't go…I just wanna ask you a question."

She looked at him, and didn't say anthing, but Leo asked her anyways. "Why don't you like me?"

"I never said I didn't like you" she lied

"So then why won't you tutor me?" he asked

"…You know people are watching," she said scanning her eyes quickly around the cafeteria.

"So? What's it to me?"

"Aren't you worried about your reputation getting ruined?" she said giving him a dirty look.

'So that's why she doesn't want to tutor me!' he thought

"What are you talking about?" he asked

"I'm a geek…and a loser…that's how everyone sees me…that's how your friends see me and that's how your girlfriend sees me as. Aren't you worried what they're gonna think if you're seen with me?"

Leo was completely shocked. "I'm not like that," he said softly

Piper thinned her eyes. "You're a liar!"

It was true…she was right..she had been worried about his reputation...but that wasn't nearly important right now at the moment.

"You're just saying that so I'll tutor you," she continued, "well you're rich…you can afford your own tutor…I only help those who can't afford to hire someone."

"I can't do that…my father refuses to…" he said softly. "Please Piper…I'm begging you…I need your help. If I don't pull my grades up…I'm suspended from the football team."

"Oh so that's why you want my help? So that you can get back on the team!"

"It's not like that! Football is not the only reason why I--"

"You don't care about school…you don't care about your grades…why do you want my help?"

"Please---"

"You don't need my help…you have your future all planned out for you…you're gonna play football here…then they're gonna give you a scholarship to play football in university…then your gonna go play professional football…so WHY DO YOU NEED MY HELP!"

"Please…I'm begging you…"

Piper sighed, 'Dammit, there's something about those eyes…' she thought. She looked at him for a few moments before continuing. "If you want my help, you have to prove to me that you want it, you have to work hard and you CAN NOT slack. You have to show me that I'm not just wasting my time in tutoring you."

"I promise!" he said hopefully

"Fine…classes are four times a week, Monday through Thursday from 3 till 5…starting today…don't be late."

AN: Yay :) she's gonna tutor him. Let me know what you think about their meeting…Updates for Chapter 7 soon :) Don't forget to read and review :D
