A/N: I don't own charmed
" I don't want any one fussing over me." Piper insisted, as she sat in the living room of her house with her sisters.
" Oh, come on." Paige said. " It's a baby shower to celebrate your baby." She placed a hand onto Piper's large stomach.
" We've got to celebrate her." Phoebe said. " We didn't have a baby shower for Laura, and I think we should have one for the baby. I mean you're pregnant for crying out loud."
" I am aware of that, Phoebs." Piper said, gesturing to her large stomach.
" I mean, she's due next month, and we still didn't have a party to celebrate her."
" Her?" Piper said. " Why do you keep saying her, it could be a boy."
Her sisters seemed to ignore her.
Piper sighed. She wasn't going to win this one.
" Fine, if it makes you happy, then fine." She gave in.
" We were going to do it anyway no matter what." Phoebe smirked.
Prue hit her arm playfully.
" I had a feeling." Piper said, and rolled her eyes.
A half an hour later, they left chatting about what the party was going to consist of, and she was left on her own. She sat back in the chair she was in, and closed her eyes.
Leo walked in the door with Laura, just as she closed her eyes. They were just getting back from their trip to the park.
" Mommy, mommy, mommy!" Laura cried.
Piper opened her eyes.
" What, what, what?" she laughed.
" I saw a butterfly." She said joyfully. " It was different from the ones in the backyard."
" Cool." Piper said.
Laura walked up to her mother, and hugged her, or tried to.
Piper, sensing Laura was getting a little upset, lifted her onto the side of her lap. Laura rested her head onto Piper's belly.
" Hi, sister or brother." She said. " I can't wait till you come out of mommy's tummy so I can see you."
Piper felt the baby kick inside of her.
" Mommy, your stomach just kicked me." Laura said.
" That was the baby, sweetie." Piper smiled. " The baby was saying hello to you."
" It was?" Laura asked, and her eyes lit up.
Piper nodded. Leo walked up to them, and placed a hand onto her stomach. She felt another kick.
" Mommy the baby said hello again." Laura said, happily.
" I know." Piper said. " They were saying hello to daddy."
Laura smiled up at Leo, and then yawned a little.
" Someone's tired." Piper said.
" I am." Laura said, raising her hand.
" Why don't you go nap in my room?" Piper suggested.
Laura got off of the chair, and went upstairs towards Piper and Leo's bedroom.
Piper sighed as she left.
" What's wrong?" Leo asked, concerned.
" My sisters want to have a baby shower for me." Piper said, and leaned her head against Leo's arm. " I don't really want one, but they're insisting."
" I think you should let them throw one." Leo said. " You deserve it."
" Will you be there?" Piper asked him.
" I thought men couldn't come." He said.
" I want you to come." She said. " I don't care if men aren't traditionally allowed to come. This is my decision."
" I'll come." He smiled.
" Thank you." She said.
The baby shower was held weeks from then, and only family and close friends were invited.
There was Grams, Phoebe, Prue, Paige, and Piper's friends Becca and Wendy, and of course Laura.
Piper walked into the manor, where the shower was being held to see banners, and decorations all around.
" Never subtle are they?" she said to Leo.
He just smiled, as he walked next to Piper with Laura.
" Where is everyone?" she called out.
" Piper!" Phoebe cried, running into the room. She looked at Leo. " What is he doing here? No men allowed!"
" Phoebe, I told him he could come." Piper said. " I want him here, so he's going to be here."
Phoebe nodded in defeat. Oh well, it was what Piper wanted. She looked at Laura. Laura was wearing her favorite pink dress for the shower.
" Well don't you look pretty?" Phoebe exclaimed. " That dress is so pretty!"
" Thank you." Laura smiled. Piper ruffled her brown hair, and smiled.
" Where is everyone?" she asked.
"They're all in the living room." Phoebe said, and led them into the living room.
" Piper!" Wendy said. " Oh my gosh you look great."
Piper smiled at her friend. " Thanks." She said. She looked over at Becca.
" Hi, Becca." She said.
" Hi, Piper." Becca said. " You do look great."
Piper smiled again.
Piper opened her gifts as soon as everyone was settled down, and the food was all out.
She got some really cute baby outfits that could be for a girl or a boy from Becca.
" At least someone thinks it could be a boy." Piper said, and glared at her sisters. They just shrugged at her.
Becca laughed.
Wendy got her a white baby blanket, and her sisters got her a bunch of baby clothes also. Most of them were pink.
" I was the one that got the blue." Prue said. " I mean it could be a boy, but I doubt it."
" Thanks, anyway." Piper said.
" Yeah, I mean even if you don't use the pink this time, you will at some point, right?" Prue added.
Piper looked at her husband. He smiled at her, and laughed. Piper then turned to her sister. "I'm not that far ahead yet," she said.
Prue laughed.
" Anyway, who wants cake?" Phoebe asked.
" Cake!" Laura cried. " I like cake."
" Cake it is, then." Phoebe said.
She brought out the cake, and it was good.
Two hours later, everyone went home, including Piper, Leo, and Laura.
They arrived home not too long after they left.
" Mommy's got to rest." Piper said, as they sat down in the living room. " It's been a long day."
" Do you want me to bring you upstairs?" Leo asked her.
" No, here's fine." She said. " I'm comfortable here."
She put her head back, and closed her eyes.
Leo took Laura outside to play, so that Piper could have some peace and quiet.
The day had been long, but it had been good.
