A/N: I don't own charmed
It was three months since Piper told Prue about the baby, and she was five months pregnant. She was starting to show a small belly, and had to resort to maternity clothes.
On Monday morning she was sitting in the sunroom, enjoying a cup of herbal tea, when Leo walked into the room.
" Hi." She said cheerfully.
" You're a lot happier than you were yesterday." He smiled.
" Yeah, well I am feeling good today." She said. " Shannen came in this morning and said hi to the baby, and I felt really good. It feels good to be feeling good, you know."
" Are you hungry?" he asked.
" Are you kidding, I am starving." She said. " I figured maybe we could go out to breakfast."
" You sure?" he asked.
" Of course I am." She smiled. "I'll get Shannen, and you get the car started."
They wound up going to a local I hop. They sat down at a booth and started to look at the menu. Shannen wanted the chocolate chip pancakes and Piper and Leo wanted the buttermilk pancakes.
" Mommy can I have some syrup on my pancakes?" Shannen asked.
Piper took the syrup bottle to her right, and poured a generous amount of syrup on her pancakes.
They went home after eating, and Piper dropped Shannen off at her friend's house.
Since they had the house to themselves, they decided to watch a movie. They chose
" Never Been Kissed" with Drew Barrymore in it. It reminded Piper of her high school days of being a freak. Leo had changed that, though. He was her hero of high school.
Piper decided that today was going to be the day she would have her sisters over, since they came over at least once a week.
She picked Shannen up, and did a little shopping for dinner. She was going to make Baked Ziti. It was the night she was going to have Prue, Phoebe, and Paige over for dinner. They did that every week.
They got home, and Leo was working on fixing a broken Barbie Dream house.
" Mommy, can I help you?" Shannen asked.
Piper smiled.
She nodded and bent low, so that what she said could only be heard by Shannen.
" Go ask Daddy if he wants to help." She said.
Shannen giggled and ran into the living room, where Leo was fixing the broken toy.
" Daddy?" she said, climbing onto the couch, and sitting on his lap. He put the barbie dream house away from his feet, and looked at her.
" Yes, princess?" he said.
" Want to come help me and mommy make dinner?" she asked.
" I sure would." he smiled, and lifted her into his arms.
He brought her into the kitchen, and set her down on the floor.
" What can I do, mommy?" he asked.
He started to help by filling a pot with water.
The dinner was done within two hours, when Phoebe, Prue, and Paige arrived.
They had their usual crumb cake with them. Prue had told Paige about Piper's baby, and she couldn't be happier.
" So, how are you Piper?" Phoebe asked.
" Good." Piper said. " I feel great."
" That's good." Prue said. " Because great must mean bent over the toilet puking your guts out."
" What?" Piper said.
" I called earlier, and Leo said you were in the bathroom, so I assumed."
" Nausea is a part of pregnancy." Piper said. " I feel fine now."
" Good to know." Paige nodded.
Piper brought everyone into the dining room, and served her nice dinner of baked Ziti and salad.
" This Ziti is delicious." Phoebe said.
" Yeah, Piper what's your secret?" Paige asked.
" It's just baked Ziti." Piper laughed.
" Yeah, but its great." Paige said.
" You're all very welcome." Piper smiled.
" Thanks, Piper." Everyone chorused.
" So Piper, when is your sonogram?" Phoebe asked.
" Its next week actually." Piper said.
" Can we come?" Paige asked.
" Actually it's just going to be Leo and Shannen coming with me." Piper said. Sensing Paige feeling left out she added. " But you guys can come to my next sonogram."
Paige smiled.
This baby was going to be so loved.
