The Stalkers
Piper sighed as she walked round the kitchen counter to sit next to Bella who was now drinking her 4th cup of coffee.
"Do you remember what Grams used to say about nightmares?"Bella asked after a few minutes of silence.
"She said if we saw any monsters to tell them to go away that they didn't exist. Always worked, too"Piper said looking at her little sister curiously.
"Yeah, well, not this time. He knew about Grams, he knew what she told us and how did he know that? And what about the marks on my back? Piper, they were there and now they've disappeared. I don't know how and I don't know why but they were definitely there,"Bella insisted but knew she was getting nowhere when Piper sighed and placed her cup on the counter.
"How many hours have you been working this week on that school project? 60, 70? And now what are you doing today, on a Saturday, no less?"
"The project needs to be in Monday and we're only half done. So we have to go back into school and finsh it,"Bella said but wished she hadn't when a smirk formed on Piper's face.
"Your teacher shouldn't have paired you with Joey, you two get easily distracted by each others faces,"she said and Bella rolled her eyes.
"Your changing the subject, you don't believe me"Bella stated.
"No. I believe you think you saw marks on your back. But I'm watching you drink coffe, which you can't stand and we're talking about a nightmare you had while you asleep in the tub. So isn't it possible that exhaustion made you see those marks and not some dream guy?"
"No, he was in my dream and it was real"Bella insisted almost begging her sister to believe her.
"So why didn't you use your powers to help you out?"
"I don't know"Bella said sighing sadly but before either of them could say anything else and man with no shirt walked into the room.
"Morning,"he said as the two women gaped at him.
"Who are you?"Piper asked as Prue walked in, also gaping at the man.
"Who cares?"she asked sitting next to Bella, all the time not taking her eyes of the man.
The man shook his head smiling as he walked over to the fridge, took a bottle of milk out and began drinking it.
"Hans, I found your t-"Phoebe said as she walked into the kitchen but when she saw Prue, Bella and Piper she froze in the doorway "-shirt."
"Was it in the hammock or-"Hans started but was cut off by Phoebe.
"It doesn't matter,"Phoebe said quickly, blushing slightly.
"Thanks,"Hans said taking the shirt out of Phoebe's hands before putting it on.
"Sure"Phoebe said smiling widely at him.
"Hammock?"Piper whispered to Bella who just shrugged her shoulders, not taking her eyes of the couple.
"I got to run"Hans said and Phoebe looked slightly put out.
"Okay,"she said reluctently before Hans pulled her into a kiss.
"I'll meet you later for lunch,"Hans told her quietly.
"Okay,"Phoebe said more happily.
Hans walked towards the door but stopped suddenly and placed the empty milk bottle into the recycling bin "nearlly forgot,"he said smiling at them before heading for the door.
Prue, Piper and Bella all turned to Phoebe silently. Phoebe was looking wistfully at the closed door before turning towards her sisters.
"Don't worry, we had safe sex. A lot of safe sex"she said with a wide smirk on her face and Bella gagged.
"I could have gone a long time without that information but thanks anyway,"Bella said still gagging and her sisters laughed.
"I'm telling you, Prue. The spell worked and why are you waitressing in Quake?"Phoebe asked as Prue picked up a plate of food.
"Shh. A little louder, Phoebe. I don't think Oakland heard and I'm waitressing because Leo's took Piper out and I have nothing else to do"Prue said as she started walking towards a table on the other side of the room.
"Well, it did. Get this, Hans doesn't go to bars. He's never been to Quake but last night he's on his away back from his acting classes. When... BAM! Flat tire on his motorcycle right across the street from Quake. So he comes in to use the pay phone and who should he bump into but me, exiting the ladies' room"Phoebe said with a smug smile on her face.
"Pheebs, you threw his clothes all over the house. That's not a spell working, that's hormones."
"No, that's not like that. I really like Hans. He's really cool and he likes me too"Phoebe said happily before walking off towards him and Prue sighed.
She walked closer to the table and placed the plate in front of the man before saying"Mr Manford, here you go. Chicken, rice and veggies. Piper says it's just the way you like it."
The man looked up and smiled widely "Thank you and please call me Jack. Has anybody ever told you how truly beautiful you are?"he asked and Prue laughed.
"Have you been drinking?"she asked and he joined in with the laughing.
"A sense of humor, I love that"he said and Prue smiled, turning to leave but was stopped by Jack who said "wait, Prue, don't go. I don't know why but I've got to get to know you. Have dinner with me."
Prue froze, had she told him he name? She broke out of her shock and asked "Can you hang on a second?"
Jack smiled before whispering "yeah."
"Okay,"Prue whispered back before walking back to the bar.
She walks towards the phone and dialed the number.
"Hello?... Can I talk to Bella Halliwell please?...Its her sister, Prue"she said down the phone to the schools receptionist.
"You know, you shouldn't have dinner with that guy"a voice said from behind her and she turned around to see another man smiling at her.
"Why not?"she asked him and he smiled wider.
"Because you should fly to Paris with me,"he said and Prue turned back to the phone.
"Tell her its and emergency,"she said down the phone.
"Are you actually going with this Jack guy?"Bella asked down the phone as she tried not to giggle as Joey trailer his fingers around the back of her kneck teasingly.
She tried to ignore it and listen to Prue but she wasn't hearing a word she was staying. Finally she gave up and said "Prue can you hang on a minute,"she said down the phone before turning to Joey and saying "can you please stop."
Joey smirked before saying "we need to finish the project, I'm sure Prue can talk to Piper or Phoebe."
Bella thought for a second before sighing and saying down the phone "Prue, I'm sorry but I've got to go...yea...love you too."
"Jack stayed through the entire lunch shift. Talked my ear off, had me laughing at all his stories and somehow convinced me to have coffee with him"Prue said as Phoebe tied up her shoe in the livingroom.
"Hans and I are going dancing at Rave, you and Jack should come join us"Phoebe suggested.
"Well, if our dinner date last as long as our coffee break, we wouldn't make it there till closing"Prue said.
"Maybe we could all meet back at the house later,"Phoebe said as she put on her coat "This has worked out so great, hasn't it?"she asked walking towards the door.
"Yeah,"Prue said smiling at Phoebe but once Phoebe left her smile faded and she said sarcastically "great."
Prue sighed in fustration, nothing she did stopped Jack from likeing her.
"What else can I tell you? Um, when I get stressed, I get hives... in very strange places. Which is nothing compared to what happens when I panic, believe me"she tried again but Jack just smiled.
"Your honesty is so refreshing"he said.
"Ah, well, it helps keep my ulcer under control"Prue said quickly but Jack just shrugged.
"Is there anyone who doesn't have one?"he asked.
"Would you like to see my tattoo?"
"Would you like to see mine?"
Prue sghed again before asking "Uh, is there nothing I can say to turn you off?"
"There really isn't. Which is kind of strange, actually"he said leaning towards her.
"Not really. Jack, you're under a-"Prue starts but is cut off when Jack kisses her "-spell."
She looks over Jack shoulder to see a guy behind Jack looking at her smiling, then she see a man from the bar holding a glass of wine and winking at her. She looks over her shoulder to see a man holding a rose and she turns quickly back to Jack, laughing nervously.
Bella sighs as her eyes droop again before turning to Joey and asking "do you mind getting me a coffee?"
He looked up from the work confused "you don't like coffee"he said.
Bella nodded slightly before saying "I'm trying new stuff."
Joey shrugged, kissed her on the cheek before leaving the room and Bella eyes drooped again. She shook her head trying to fight of sleep but when her eyes drooped again the room was suddenly darker and Bella's heart dropped.
"Hello Bella, we meet again"the man from the other dream said and Bella grabbed the nearest thing to her which happened to be, much to Bella's disappointment, a folder.
"All that work, all those hours. You fell asleep at your desk,"the man said smirking walking closer towards her.
"Someone help!"Bella screamed as the classroom walls suddenly turned into blue and red clouds and Bella realised they were now on the top of a building.
"What do you hide from at work? Is it the pain of your past or the uncertainty of your future?"the man asked and Bella glared at him as she tries, without success to get out of her chair.
"I don't hide from anything,"she snapped at him.
"You can't move out of the chair, can you?"he asked turning the chair around making it scrape on the floor "Don't you want to know why? Because I don't want you too, you're powerless Bella."
"Got to hell!"
"I, on the other hand, am the all power-full. If you don't want to talk to me, that's fine. There's always Prue, Phoebe or any number of young, single women out there. It's an endless pool for the Dream Sorcerer,"he said and Bella panicked when she heard her sisters names.
"No, wait! I'll stay!"she insisted and the dream sorcerer smirked.
"It's too late, you're falling asleep"he said and Bella shook her head quickly.
"No, I'm fine. I'm awake."
"Shall I sing you a lullaby?"he asked and Bella glared again.
"I don't think so!"she snarled wacking him around the head with the folder in her hands.
He yells in pain before turning back to her with a murderous look on his face "good night Bella!"he said before pushing the chair towards the edge.
Suddenly Bella could hear a phone ringing and she was back in the classroom.
The phone carries on ringing and Bella digs though her bag before finally pulling out her mobile.
"Hello?"she said down the phone.
"Hey, are you still at school?"Piper asked on the other side of the line.
"Yeah, I'll be home in a minute. Where are you?"Bella asked.
"I'm somewhere in England, Leo's just about to take me home. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, Piper thanks for calling. See you later, love you"Bella said.
"Love you too,"Piper said before hanging up and Bella's eyes widened when she saw the blood that was on her folder.
