"Phoebe, what's the matter? Work?" Piper asked.

"No."

"Man?" Piper implored.

"No..well...everything was fine until he said we couldn't see each other anymore," Phoebe sighed. She looked nervous.

"Did he say why?"

"He said... he got a... promotion...at work... and he's...uh...moving up north," Phoebe looked pale now.

"You don't sound so sure," said Piper.

"That's because he's married!" Phoebe blurted out.

"Phoebe! You're the other woman? You know better than that. You probably ruined his marriage!" Piper asked. She went to get herself a glass of water. "How could you?"

"Well, I kinda... slept with him...a couple of times," Phoebe added reluctantly.

"Phoebe!" Piper exclaimed. She remembered her premonition of Phoebe out with the no-name/face man. Uh-oh! Premonition made Piper remember the one where Phoebe had demonic powers.

"That's not all," Phoebe said, "lately, I've been having nightmares where Cole is turning me evil."

Piper choked at Cole's name.

"Are you alright?" asked Phoebe.

"Yeah. Cole turning you evil, huh?"

"Yeah. He keeps saying that I'm evil and always will be. He says that I love him and no one else. And then everything turns back to where he was the Source and I was his Queen. I think it's all one big premonition telling me Cole's up to something."

Piper tried to remain calm. Cole wasn't up to something. He was just here. He kissed her.

Or was he up to something? He pops in all of a sudden, kisses her, and pops out. What was up?

"Don't you think you're jumping the gun there? Are you sure it's a premonition?" Piper asked as calm as she could be.

"Well, I don't know if it's a premonition, but I'm sure Cole's up to something."

Piper noticed that Phoebe seemed more comfortable talking about this topic. She was nervous when talking about her married man. Piper just pushed this thought out of her mind.

"Honey don't worry about it. I'm sure it's just a nightmare. You'll get over it." Piper said.

"Yeah, but if we try to vanquish him now, then he can't carry out any plans for the future."

Piper remembered her talk with Cole. They agreed to be friends. They won't try to vanquish each other.

"Don't worry about it. He hasn't attacked us yet. I think we should just let it go. Whatever happens, happens," Piper said taking a deep breath.

"Are you sure that being pregnant hasn't made you softer?" asked Phoebe. "Never mind. I guess you're right."

Phoebe started walking out of the kitchen.

"I'm going to bed early for once. And hopefully no nightmares." Phoebe looked tired.

"Wait, Phoebe. I need to talk to you."

Phoebe turned around. "It can't wait till morning?"

Piper couldn't stand to tell her sister she'd been getting premonitions. Her sister already looked tired. Piper decided she would have to tell her.

"I have been getting premonitions, lately," Piper said slowly.

Phoebe's eyes went wide.

"I think it's because of the baby," Piper continued, "I've been having them for the last couple days."

"How come you haven't told anybody?"

"Everyone's hardly around enough for me to tell them, but Phoebe I wanted to talk to you about my latest premonition."

Phoebe waited for Piper to continue.

"In my premonition, I was talking to...uh... Cole when you came in. You threw several energy balls at him and then you shimmered away."

Phoebe's eyes went wide. "What have your other premonitions been about? What were you doing talking to Cole? I threw energy balls and shimmered? Isn't that a good thing that I threw them at Cole?"

"Phoebe, it's not a good thing that you have demonic powers."

"Look, Piper, I'm really tired. I'm going to bed. I don't think I can get demonic powers while sleeping. We'll deal with this tomorrow."

Piper nodded and then said jokingly, "You went out with a married guy, huh?"

Phoebe nervously smiled and then went upstairs as fast as she could.

Piper thought that Phoebe took the news pretty well. Having demonic powers, especially a good witch having demonic powers, should be taken seriously.

But why were they not taking anything seriously?

Piper for one, knew that she wanted to think about Cole. He said he was having dreams about her, too. Isn't that a good thing? They both seemed to like each other. But a voice in the back of her head told her that Cole was evil. Was he really evil? No, she didn't think Cole could be evil.

Probably for Phoebe, believing that Cole was evil helped her to get over him. Piper sighed. She had Leo. She shouldn't mess with something that was already good. But was it good? Leo was hardly ever around anymore. It seemed like he was a complete stranger to her. She loved Leo. Or did she?

STOP!

She shouldn't be having these doubts. She stopped thinking about Leo, but then her mind went to the kiss she shared with Cole. It was just one kiss right? So she should just stop thinking about Cole. She would act like nothing ever happened.

All of a sudden Leo orbed in behind her. He put his arms around Piper, but started talking to the baby.

"How you doing in there, little one?" Leo smiled.

He didn't even acknowledge my presence, Piper thought.

"Hi honey." Leo brushed a kiss on her cheek.

Well there you go Piper, she thought.

"Leo, we need to talk." Piper turned around. Leo looked tired.

Maybe she should wait until tomorrow because everyone was tired. And she needed to thank Paige for taking care of P3.

"Yeah... um... Piper, I need to tell you something, too."

"You know what, why don't we just talk to tomorrow."

Leo nodded and they both walked upstairs to bed. Piper really would have liked to talk now, but Leo seemed too tired.

Maybe dreams about Cole, tonight. NO!

She was going to dream about Leo. It is wrong to dream about another man, when she was already married.

Piper was confused. She was stressing and that wasn't going to be good for the baby. Piper just relaxed. She just cleared her mind and hoped she could have a dreamless sleep. All this thinking was giving her a headache.

As Piper layed down next to Leo, she smelled something. Cologne to be exact. Leo was wearing cologne. So who cares, she thought. But Leo only wore cologne on special occasions. What was the occasion today?
