Title: Dreams

Summary: Two people fall in love with each other through their dreams, can they overcome their problems in real life & be together?

Warnings: All mistakes are my own. I don't own anything.

Note: During Season 5 when Cole hasn't been vanquished and Piper is pregnant.

The next day wasn't any different. Piper went down to the club and made sure everything was running efficiently. She ran a few errands, thankful that nothing demonic had come this way and hoping she wasn't jinxing herself.

Once she returned home, she started to make dinner until Leo orbed in to say he had work and left again before she could reply. Paige was taking care of P3 tonight and Phoebe would probably be out again. Piper, instead, made herself a salad and sat down at the table by herself.

For the fifth day in a row.

Piper sighed and reached for a muffin left over from breakfast that was sitting on the table.

"It gets kinda lonely after awhile, doesn't it?"

Piper looked up to see Cole appearing in front of the table. Piper was startled and dropped her muffin. She got ready to scramble backwards, but her pregnancy hindered her movement. Instead, she tried to figure hot to respond.

Should she try to blow him up like she usually did? For all she knew, he couldn't be having the same dreams as she was and feel the same way about her as she to him.

"Look, I don't want you to blow me up. I just want to talk," said Cole hesitantly taking a step backward. What the hell was he doing here? What made him think this was a good idea.

"I won't blow you up," Piper said, surprising herself. "Talk."

Cole took a seat in front of her and they stared at each other in unease.

Piper felt odd because she usually considered Cole to be an enemy...mostly Phoebe's doing. But now with the benefit of her dreams, she was willing to give him a chance to talk.

Cole eventually broke the silence. "Maybe we could...ummm...sorta... be friends? You know we could... like... stop trying to vanquish each other."

"Yeah, maybe," Piper said trying to maintain her suspicious facade as she didn't know his intentions yet.

"Ok then. Truce," Cole said sticking out his hand.

Piper chewed her lip. "Truce." She took his hand and was thrown into another premonition.

*Premonition*

Cole and Piper were sitting on a couch talking. Suddenly, Cole kissed Piper and she seemed to enjoy it. Phoebe showed up behind Cole and threw several energy balls at Cole. Cole didn't have time to react and fell to the ground. Phoebe shimmered away and Piper was trying to revive Cole.

*End of premonition*

Piper was shocked. She and Cole kissed, but more importantly, how did Phoebe get the power to throw energy balls and shimmer?

"Did you just have a premonition?" Cole asked.

"Uh... yeah...how did you know?" Piper asked.

"You got the same look on your face that Phoebe had when she got premonitions. What did you see?" Cole implored.

Piper reluctantly told Cole her premonition leaving out the part about her and Cole kissing.

"Have you told your sisters and Leo that you've been having premonitions? Do you know why you've been having them?" Cole asked.

"Well, if someone would be in the house long enough for me to tell them I would. Everyone is always out or telling me not to worry, just relax. I'm just guessing that I must be having them because of the baby." Piper said.

Cole looked hesitant again and then slowly asked her, "Have you been having any dreams lately?"

"Yeah." Piper was unsure if she should tell Cole about her dreams.

"Do your dreams have anything to do with you and me being together? I mean, you said we were talking in the premonition," Cole looked nervous. He was thinking that he was the only one having these dreams and that upon telling Piper, she would blow him up.

"Actually, yeah. Have you been having those dreams too?" Piper asked hopefully.

"Yeah, except at first, I couldn't see my wife's face, but I thought it was Phoebe—"

"Yeah, same here, I thought it was Leo—"

"And then my wife turned out to be you—"

"My husband turned out to be you—"

Piper and Cole both talked at the same time about their dreams. They interrupted each other and kept on rambling in excitement. While Piper was explaining her latest premonition, Cole came up and kissed her. Piper was taken aback, but found herself to be responsive. Their excitement, hopes and dreams were reflected in that kiss until they were interrupted by a door slamming.

They jumped a part and Piper quickly said, "We'll talk later." She ran her fingers across her lips. What had she done? Leo?

Cole nodded and said, "Take care of yourself and the baby." He shimmered away.

Phoebe walked into the kitchen and found Piper.

"How was your day?" Piper asked politely. She hoped Phoebe would say fine and go away because Piper needed some time to think about what just happened with her and Cole, but she also needed to talk to Phoebe about her premonition. She would try to leave the part out where she and Cole kissed, but still try to figure out how Phoebe got demonic powers.

Phoebe looked angry, but determined. She practically growled out, "We NEED to talk."
