A/N: I don't own charmed
Laura's dance show was finally here. Her dance school had a fun show in September to start the year off, and a recital in June. The fun show usually took place after three classes to show what they've been learning, and how much they've progressed since the recital.
" You look beautiful." Piper said, looking at her daughter who was in a black leotard, pink tights, and black tap shoes.
" I'm excited, mommy." Laura said.
" Ready to go?" Piper called out.
" Yeah." Leo said, coming into the room with Tyler in his arms.
" Great." Piper said. " Let's go."
They got to the dance school, and went to the auditorium of the school. All the girls were there already.
" You'll do great." Piper told her. " Do your best."
Laura ran to the rest of her class, and sat down in the audience area next to one of her friends named Eliza.
" Miss Kelley's four year old group is first up." A woman said from the stage once the parents and family were seated.
Laura's class went up, and simple tap music began to play. Laura's smiling face came to the front of the stage.
" She's so happy." Leo said, as he held up the video camera. " She's so cute up there."
" She is." Piper agreed.
" Hey Laura!" came a voice from the back of the room.
Piper looked at Laura and saw her eyes travel to the back of the room.
The next event flashed before Piper's eyes, and horrified her.
Laura's face went from a wide smile to a frown, and in mid shuffle, the distraction caused her to slip. Her being in the front of the stage didn't help. It wouldn't have horrified Piper if she slipped and fell to the stage, but she fell to the ground. The ground below the stage.
" Oh my god!" a person yelled from the front of the audience. " That little girl fell off the stage!"
The video camera in Leo's hand fell to the floor, and he leapt from his seat. He ran to the front of the stage, and searched for Laura. He found her on the floor next to the piano.
" Laura!" he said, frantically. No answer came. He ran to her, and lifted her into his arms. She was breathing thank god, but she wasn't conscious.
" Leo!" Piper screamed. Tyler who was in her arms started to cry, with seeing a rush of people around them. She looked to the back of the room to find the source of the accident. Who she saw angered her.
" You!" she said. She didn't have time to deal with them, because she needed to find her daughter. Leo came through the crowd holding Laura.
" I need an ambulance." He yelled. " One's been called." A woman from the exit door yelled. " It's rushing here now."
" My baby!" Piper cried.
" She's breathing." Leo assured her.
" Yeah, well guess who caused this." Piper said. Tears were in her eyes. Leo looked to the back of the room to see the person.
" I'll kill him!" Leo said.
" Leo, just get our daughter to the hospital." Piper said. He nodded.
Piper followed Leo outside where there was now an ambulance. Leo got into the ambulance with her.
Laura was taken to a special hospital room where Leo sat with Piper and Tyler.
A doctor saw her immediately.
" She's got a concussion. A mild one." He said. " Hit her head, which is why she's unconscious. Broken right arm."
" She'll be alright?" Piper asked, nervously.
The doctor nodded.
" Thank god." Leo sighed.
" How did this happen?" the doctor asked.
" My ex-husband called out her name, and she was surprised, and slipped off of the stage at her dance performance."
" Her father, I assume?"
"No." Leo said. " I'm her father. Biological."
" Okay, well I suggest you take a breather. Comfort your son. She'll be okay."
Tyler was still sobbing uncontrollably.
" You go, I'll stay." Leo said to Piper.
She went to the waiting room, and began to tock Tyler to soothe him.
" Shh, my sweet baby boy." She whispered. " It's okay. Your sister's alright."
" I am so sorry." A voice from behind her said.
She turned around. " I told you I wanted you out of my life." She snarled. " And my daughter's. What the hell were you doing at her recital?"
" My friend's daughter Eliza dances there. I was invited." He said. " I was surprised to see Laura there."
" Yeah, well because of you." Piper said, shifting Tyler in her arms. " She's got a concussion and a broken arm! She's unconscious!"
" Didn't mean for that to happen." He said, running his hands through his hair.
" Well, it did." Piper said. Tyler was crying making her even more nervous.
"Please baby, it's okay." She kept rocking him back and forth. Tyler continued to cry.
" You know, we were fine." She said. " I had my baby, celebrated my new life with my husband. My daughter was fine, and then everything crashes. Literally."
" Cute baby." Dan said.
" Don't try to be nice." She scoffed. " Don't pull your crap. It's not working."
" What do you want from me?" he demanded.
" To get out of my life, and stay out." She said, patiently, or seeming so.
" We already decided on that." He said.
" Well, your here." She said. " Leave. Go find a new life so I can live mine."
" Bye." He said. " I tried to be nice."
He left, and Piper didn't even watch. Something had to be done.
