Fianlly, it's here. I lost it sort of so I had to re do it, but I hope ya like...

Piper woke up, to her surprise, alone. She rubbed her eyes and looked a the clock, 10:45. She yawned. "I am so living in a dream." she thought out loud.

"Your what?" asked Paige coming into her room. The door was already open. Piper looked at her take a seat next to her on the bed.

"What are you doing here? Don't you have somewhere to be? A boyfriend to play with."

"As fun as that sounds, not til later. However speaking of boyfriends, yours called, asked what's up."

Piper sighed. "Ok, I'll call him back."

Paige nodded. "So?"

"What?" she asked annoyed

"What's up?"

Piper rubbed her head. She didn't even know anymore. Everything was a mess. She gave into temptation and was disappointed to find nothing at all come out of it. "Nothing, Paige. Absolutely nothing. Now can I have some privacy, please?"

"So, um, what happen with Leo last night?"

"Privacy means alone. Do you know that?"

"Did you accomplish anything?"

"Paige!"

"Piper!"

She sat up, stressed, mad and still a bit tired. "Yes. We slept together, ok? Is that what you wanted to hear? We slept together and it was the dumbest mistake ever because he wasn't even man enough to stick around for the end. Did he care? Yeah, probably. Does he now? No, probably not. Don't you see why I was resisting? He will only hurt me. I finally gave in thinking it would help solve everything and it only made me see the truth the hard way. So there, Paige, that's what's up. Now go do what you do and tell Phoebe so you two can find yet another way to screw up."

"That's not true. He left this morning because he didn't know how you felt about it happening like it did. He wanted to stick around, but he was afraid that if he did, you would find some way to turn it around. He wanted you to be sure of your decisions and then announce them yourself."

"I was sure. That's what last night was all about. I thought he understood that."

"Then make him understand, Piper. Go tell him."

Piper laid back down. "If you knew what the deal was, why did you come ask?"

"To hear your side. Listen to what you had to say. Then eventually give you the truth. And tell you your making an even bigger mistake by laying her doing nothing."

Piper smiled. "Well, mission accomplished. Now get out of here."

Paige hopped off the bed and ran to her own room. Closing the door, she smiled to herself, did as told and called Phoebe.

Piper was sitting at Evan's house at the table. She had just told him that she couldn't see him anymore. Nothing personal, just that she felt she was growing apart from him.

"I knew something was up, but I didn't think it was this."

"I'm sorry, Evan. I actually wanted to tell you sooner, but I really didn't know how."

"No, that's fine. Look, I don't want to sound like an ass or anything, but I'm fine with it. I mean, I travel way to much to have a steady relationship anyway. So I guess in a way, I'm ok with it."

Piper smiled. "You have no idea how relieved I am. I was so scared I was gonna bum out your trip."

Evan smiled back. "Let's not get to into it. I'm forcing these words out. I mean them, but it's not like I'm super thrilled about this."

They looked at each other. "When you do make time for a relationship and find that girl, she's gonna be one happy lady. I can tell you that much. You're an amazing man, Evan Brooks."

He smiled once more. "Likewise, Piper Halliwell."

She stood up, went around the table, kissed him on the cheek and left his house. Than was the end of him. She was on her way to something new.

She sat outside the 'Stop N Go' gas station for what seemed like forever.

She had showed up at Leo's apartment, knocked and waited nervously. When no answer came, she started to really feel like he had second thoughts, then she slapped herself remembering he had a job and went there.

Now sitting in the parking lot, she was watching him. There was way to much to be said, but she had no idea where to start.

This was probably even the worst place for a talk as serious as theirs to go down, but she just had to make it clear what she wanted and hear that he wanted it too.

She turned the car off and within seconds, the heat started to warm up her and her jeep. She had forgotten how hot it was since she had just had the air condition on high.

Slowly, she stepped out of the vehicle. She took a deep breath and walked inside. He was behind the cash register, putting in money and grabbing change.

She walked to the back of the aisles where he wouldn't be able to see her and stood there. She was chickening out. This was much harder than she was expecting it to be.

Maybe this is making me seem to excited. It could wait until he gets off. She thought. Then any chance of that was blown when she heard him. "Alright Jim, I'm gonna take my break."

She decided to bolt to the door, assuming he was gonna come to the back and as she turned the corner to quick, she hit hard into a way to familiar chest, lost balance and fell hard to the floor.

Leo didn't notice who it was at first as he helped her up. "Whoa, where's the fire? Are you okay?" She looked up and he dropped her arm. "Piper."

"Hi, hey um, I'm sorry. I-I planned this differently. Um, I really need to talk to you. I know your working, but there's just some stuff I have to say and I would rather say it now than later or else I'll lose the courage and not be able to say anything at all. So here it is, Leo I'm-"

"Wait." he stopped her. He took her hand and lead her to the back where stocks were kept. "It's just a little busy out there."

A small smile pulled at the corners of her lips.

He returned one and looked around, sitting on a crate. "Well, continue."

She sighed. "I'm sorry. For fighting my feelings. Leo, your everything I ever wanted and I had let the past get in the way of that. I didn't want to give in because I viewed you differently. I saw you as someone that could only hurt me and bring me more emotional pain than I can imagine and that scared me. It stopped me from wanting to admit how I really felt. I forced myself to believe you were something that you weren't and I regret that. But last night, it was clear. It felt so right to be with you, to hug you and kiss you. I didn't want it to end. I knew what I wanted. I wanted you. I love you with all my heart. And I know now that it will never change. As much as I fight it, I can never stop. You may have forgotten what we had before and that's fine, but I need to know if you feel the same way now." She was desperately struggling to keep the tears at the corners of her eyes from falling out.

Leo stood up off the crate and walked over to her, taking her into his arms and holding her tight. She hugged back. He leaned down and whispered into her ear. "Always have, always will. A love like ours is impossible to forget. Remember that."

He lifted up her head and wiped away the tears that had finally fallen. He pushed back her hair and he kissed her. A kiss that sealed the deal.

Update coming...
