Chp. 9

It had been a couple months since Peyton's death and Prue was still struggling with it but getting better as the days went on. She really was trying to be strong but every time she thought of the unborn child that she was carrying, her heart just ached more. Cole however was doing much better than his wife that was until that afternoon. Cole was sitting in his office at the house. Prue was at a photo shoot so he had the house to himself for a little while. Cole suddenly began to feel hungry so he walked over to the refrigerator to fix himself something to eat. When he came back to his office a figure dressed in black stood in his way.

"Hello Belthazor," the figure said.

"I prefer 'Cole' now," Cole replied, "who the hell are you?"

"Ah yes we haven't met before although I have met your wife on many occasions. Anyways I am the angel of death."

"Great what the hell do you want with me?"

"I've come to offer you a deal."

"What does it entail?"

"Your daughter."

"Peyton?" Cole asked obviously confused.

"Yes your little girl Peyton."

"She...she's dead."

"Yes and am the angel of death hence death. Listen the bottom line is I am willing to give her back to you and your wife."

"What's the catch?"

"Ah smart one as always there is a small price to pay, well maybe not so 'small' a price however."

"What's the price then?"

"I give you back your daughter...in return for your life." Cole just stared at him for a moment then quickly looked to the floor. He stayed that way for a few minutes before finally looking up again.

"How long do I have before I must make a decision?"

"You have until the birth of your second child. Do not worrying about contacting me, I will know when you have come to a decision." And with that he disappeared. Cole just knelt down and cried. They say you will do anything for your child but how do you choose between your children? If he took the offer than he would never get to know his second child and if he took the offer, how would Prue deal with it? Millions of thoughts filled his head as he knelt. This was just too overwhelming. Sometimes he just wished he couldn't feel a thing. But Cole was brought back to reality by the loud noise Prue made as she opened the door. Cole instantly jumped to his feet upon hearing her. He couldn't tell her about this. It would be too much to overwhelm her with right now especially since she was pregnant. Cole just put a fake face on and walked to the door to greet her.

"Hey how did the shoot go?" Cole asked trying not to sound suspicious.

"It was good I just have to develop this roll so I'll be in the basement for a little while okay." Prue said kissing Cole on the cheek.

"Sounds good I'm just gonna order in kay. Pizza or Chinese?"

"Pizza sounds good."

"Okay I'll call in and then I'm gonna take a quick shower," Cole said still smiling.

"Okay," Prue answered walking down to the basement. As soon as Prue turned around, Cole's smile turned to a frown instantly. He walked upstairs and dialled the number for their favourite pizza place.

"Hello, Charlie's how may I help you?" the voice on the other line asked.

"Uh I'd like to order one medium Hawaiian with extra chess please." Cole said. Prue loved cheese so he always ordered extra cheese.

"That will be 22.50 pick-up or delivery?"

"Delivery I'm at 1520 Prescott street."

"Great that will be about a 45 minute wait. Have a nice night!" the man said clicking off. Cole clicked off then headed to the shower. Maybe that would help him clear his thoughts. Yeah right.
