A/N: I don't own charmed

Laura was able to start dance a week later. She was signed up for ballet and tap. Piper went out and bought her a few cute little dance outfits for her to wear. Laura was in love with the fact that she was going to get to dance. Her favorite part was the tap shoes. Piper had a feeling that tap would be Laura's favorite through her dancing career.

Piper was now five months along. Morning sickness wasn't as bad as it had been, but she still felt nauseous every now and then.

They still didn't know what the baby was, even though her sisters urged her to find out. They knew Laura was a girl when Piper was just four months along with her. She wanted this baby to be a surprise.

It was a Saturday morning, and Piper walked down the stairs towards the kitchen, ready to prepare breakfast. She walked into the room to see Leo and Laura sitting at the table already eating eggs and toast.

" What's all this?" she said, walking over to the table.

" Daddy made me breakfast, mommy." Laura said.

Piper smiled. " Is that so?"

Leo smiled. " It is." He said. " I made you a plate, too." He gestured towards a plate with scrambled eggs, just the way she loved them, and crisp toast on the side. Next to the plate was a tall glass of milk.

" Aww, honey, thank you." She grinned, and sat down in front of her plate, which was next to Leo.

" No problem at all." He said.

She picked up a fork at the side of her plate, and dug into the eggs. She took a bite. They were really good.

" These are great." She told him.

He smiled.

Later that day, Piper decided to do some light house cleaning. Leo and Laura were sitting on the couch watching cartoons on TV. Piper had forced Leo to not help, since she wanted to do this one thing alone.

She had just finished cleaning the kitchen counters, and was about to make lunch, when the doorbell rung. She went to go get it, because it was probably the delivery of the portable tap floor she had bought for Laura, and she would need to sign for it.

She made her way to the front door, and opened it. There standing before her was her ex-husband Dan.

"Dan?" she frowned. " I thought I told you to stay away from my family."

" No more lies Piper." He said. " I want my daughter. That's all I want."

" Laura is mine and Leo's daughter, Dan." She said. " We've been through this."

" How can I be so sure?" he shot at her. " How do I know you aren't just making that up?"

" Dan, just let me live my life." She said. " Laura is Leo's daughter. He was there when she was born. He held my hand as I gave birth. Where were you? Off drinking with your buddies, leaving me alone. He's always been her father. Now I need to get back to my family if you'll kindly leave. I mean why are we even discussing this?"

" Honey?" came Leo's voice. " Who was at the door?"

He came into the doorway of the living room. His mouth formed into a frown.

" I thought we had an agreement you wouldn't come here anymore." He said, angrily.

" I want my daughter." Dan said, insistently. " I don't believe that that little girl isn't mine. Please let me come in, and we can talk about it."

" Dan, please leave!" Piper said, impatiently.

Dan frowned, and looked at her, glaring down at her stomach.

" If I were you, buddy, I'd make sure that's your kid." He said. " We'll see whose daughter she is." He walked off without even closing the door.

Piper closed it, and turned to her husband. She sank into his arms, and sighed.

" Honey, we both know who her father is DNA or no," he said, rubbing her back. She leaned her head onto his strong chest.

" She is your daughter both ways." Piper assured him. " So is this little one."

He smiled. She lifted her head, and kissed him.

" I know." He said, when she pulled away. " That's the way I love it."

" He'll probably want a DNA test." Piper said. " Will you be okay with that?"

" I am." He said. " Anything to have him leave my family alone." He smiled down at her stomach. " All of us." He added.

She smiled, and kissed him again. He always had a way to make her feel better in any kind of stressful situation.

She stayed in his sweet embrace, taking in his nice aftershave less scent. She hated his aftershave smell, because it always made her nauseous, so he didn't use it.

" Why don't you go rest." He suggested. " You've been cleaning all day. I'll cook."

" I like to cook." She said. " But you can help if you want."

She smiled, and followed his lead into the kitchen.

Piper took out a box of macaroni and cheese from a cabinet, and set it next to the stove. Next she poured some water into a pot, and set it onto the stove to boil. She turned to see Leo looking at her, waiting for directions.

" Set the table." She said. " Please, honey?"

He crossed the room to the cabinet with the plates, bowls, and cups, and took out three bowls and three cups. After he set them onto the table, he took three spoons out of the silverware drawer.

As he put a spoon into each bowl, he heard Piper add the macaroni to boiling water.

" Where's Laura?" Piper asked.

" She's in the play room." Leo told her. " I just hope she didn't hear what happened."

" I hope so, too." Piper agreed.

A little while later, lunch was ready, and they all ate together.

Piper didn't think she had really had to worry about the whole situation, because with Leo she could overcome anything, and no test would show that Laura wasn't Leo's child.
