Later that night at the party, Piper is talking to her friends and notices Leo there not talking to anybody and decides to walk over to him.
"I'm glad you could make it."
He smiles.
"I wouldn't miss it." He mumbles under his breath so that Piper cannot hear it, "More like I can't miss it."
"Come on, stop sitting there and meet everyone."
"I'm fine." She can tell he is a little shy.
"Come on, everyone is so nice they won't bother you." He still doesn't want to.
"Well, I know you and that's all."
"Then why don't we talk for a bit."
"Okay so who are all of these people by names?"
"We have Craig, Marissa, John, Stacy, Mario, Dan, Jo, Maria. Oh and my sisters are here Prue and Phoebe and Catherine who was the previous Leader."
"Oh."
"Hey babe" comes an unfamiliar voice to Leo, however Piper instantly recognizes it as Catherine.
"Hey Catherine, Leo this is Catherine, Catherine this is Leo."
"I was wondering who this was."
She leans toward Piper and whispers in her ear.
"He's cute how and when did he make it in?"
Piper whispers back.
"He is the center-forward." Then she turns her attention to Leo "I will be right back."
I wonder what they are talking about. Thought Leo.
Piper and Catherine walk off.
"You like him?"
"He's hot. If he doesn't go out with you, I will go out with him." She slightly laughs.
"Funny. But I told him the rules today, he said they were barbaric."
"Yea slightly, but more medieval."
"That's what I said. Then about the center-forward rule, he said he would have to think about it."
"Who wouldn't go out with you? You're amazing. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise."
Piper smiles
"Try telling Leo that."
"He'll realize in due time. So when is the pool going to be open?"
"It has been open just no one has been going in."
"They are waiting for you darling."
Piper has her suit on so she goes into the pool and everyone else follows. Leo goes upstairs to change and walks down and outside to the pool and everyone sees his amazing six pack. Leo does a cannon ball and gets Craig and the guys all wet.
"Was I just dreaming?" Catherine says
"Definitely not" responds Piper staring at his six pack.
"He's sexy"
"Yes he is. Tell me Catherine why does he have to think?"
"I don't know."
Leo swims underwater to her and tickles her sides slightly but Piper doesn't know it is him and he swims away. She doesn't mind however. Then he swims back over to her.
"So what should I know about you?" says Leo
"What do you want to know about me" Piper responds.
"I don't know any thing you want to tell me."
"Well I'm a junior, smart and not to sound conceited but I show myself in a nice manner."
"Well at least you don't dress bad like some girls do."
"I know what you mean."
Then he leans closer to her and whispers in her ear.
"Are you always acting like Leader even at home?"
"No. At home I loosen up."
He smiles.
"That's a good thing to know."
He swims away and unknowingly rubs up against her as he swims.
OMG thought Piper
Catherine noticed this.
"Did he just…and not notice it?"
"Yes!"
"How did it feel?"
"Amazing!!!"
Catherine laughed and everyone gets out and has a small glass of champagne given to everyone by Piper and in the bottom of her glass is a ring, however she does not know why or who. Eyeing it suspiciously she takes the ring out and cleans it off and puts inside her pocket. Watching her do this Catherine walks over.
"What was that?"
"A ring"
Just then Marissa comes over and hears this conversation.
"Leader was that what I think it was?" said Marissa eagerly
"A ring like I just say but I don't know who it is from."
"Well thinking back to the rule who is supposed to go out with the Leader. Leo's your best guess now. "
"Yea I guess your right."
She sees him from across the room and decides to walk over to him. Even though he is in the middle of a conversation with Craig, she politely interrupts.
"Excuse me Craig, can Leo and I talk for a minute."
Craig nods respectfully and Piper takes Leo aside to talk to him and show him the ring.
"I found this did you give it to me?"
He takes it from her hand and studies it carefully. He waits a minute and then takes out a ring box which is empty.
"Looks like it was me Leader" she shows her happiness by smiling. He places the ring on her right ring finger while saying.
"Leader, will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?"
"Yes." Her smile widens.
Slowly they lean toward each other for a soft kiss.
"Well," says Leo, "why don't you go back and talk to Catherine and Marissa and the girls."
"Ok," she turns around but turns her head back toward him, "I will meet up with you later."
Both of them go over to there respective friends.
"What were you guys talking about while I was talking to Piper?."
"Just about how not to get whipped," responded Craig.
"What do you mean how not to get whipped?"
"Meaning not giving in to Leader's every will."
"Thanks Craig I will have to remember that."
"Girls look at this."
"Wow," said Catherine.
"That's gorgeous was it Leo or no." Marissa perked up.
"It was him." Piper lets out a squeal.
"Leader you just squealed. Aw you really like him."
"I do. I'm just really happy. I mean when I first met him and he asked me for directions I really broke down."
"Because you liked him?"
"Yes!"
"That's adorable."
"I know. What do you think will happen between us?"
"I think you will be very happy together and very rarely am I wrong."
"I know."
Just then she feels someone tap her shoulder. Unknowing it was Leo she turned around with a 'don't bother me' attitude.
"What?" Piper said
"Would you like to dance?" Of course Piper realized it was and she felt embarrassed.
"I would love too. Sorry about the attitude."
Leo places his hands around her back and her hands are around his neck and a slow song comes on. Sadly the party comes to an end.
A.N: Awww the first dance. So sweet. The more reviews the faster chapters come out.
