Summary of previous chapters because I just feel like it: In Piper's past
life she was gang raped and left to die. She managed to get herself down a
road somewhere, where Dan found her. Dan told her that Leo was involved
with the gang rape and she no longer trusts Leo, but Dan whom she had
already loved. Meanwhile in the present, Piper is having dreams about her
past. Leo talks to the Elders and they confirm the fact that Leo was evil
and did have Piper raped. The Demons: Amelie is lover of Demon Dan who is
trying to kill Piper and the Charmed Ones (original, huh?). Wasn't that
fun?
A/N: Thanks to all of you who reviewed! ( Some of you were worried that Leo and Piper won't be together at the end.....you'll just have to wait and see. :D But honestly, unless my brain does totally weird things (which is always a possibility) it should be a good ending. Someone else said that the ~ ~ ~ was confusing between each 'scene.' I agree but I'm not sure how else to do it...I'm open to suggestions. Read and review. ( Enjoy!
Past
The rays of sun trickled into the small room, spreading light across the bed. Dan watched as her eyes fluttered open. She was in his mind a picture of pure innocence.
"Dan?"
"Yes?"
"Can you swear to me that what you said last night was completely true?"
"Yes," he answered, coldly, believe she still trusted Leo.
She let a single tear slip down her cheek as she stared deeply into his beautiful brown eyes.
"Dan. I'm so sorry. I should have never left you. I...I...oh God, Dan." By now more tears were falling and mixing with the dry blood on her cheeks.
"Shhh, Piper, it's okay. I understand." He wrapped an arm around her shoulder, rocking her gently back and forth. "Let's get you cleaned up. Okay?"
She nodded in silent affirmation as Dan picked her up off the bed, carrying her carefully to the small bathroom.

Present
"Now's where the fun begins, my dear." Dan smiled evilly at Amelie. "I want you to get Leo to confess to Piper all he knows. They won't speak to each other for a while after that. Piper's too stubborn."
Amelie grinned. "This is way too easy. Would you rather me use a potion or a truth spell?"
"Potion. Truth spell doesn't last long enough."
"They're going out for dinner tonight. I'll slip it into his drink."
Dan smiled. "That's my smart girl. Always thinking."
Amelie blushed at his compliment and began to run her hands over his chest. "You know we have a while until it's time for me to go. Wanna do something?"
"Have anything in mind, baby?"
"You know I do." The mischievous glint in her eyes did not go unnoticed as she pushed him back on the bed.

"Here's your wine, sir," she said, handing him the white wine infested with an admission potion.
"Thank you," he replied, turning back to face Piper. She looked beautiful with the milky glow of the candles splayed across her features.
"You're so beautiful." Taking a sip of the wine, he started coughing, while Amelie watched in pure amusement.
"Are you okay Leo?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Look, Piper. I haven't been completely honest with you. There's something I want you to know."
Piper's eyebrows furrowed in worry as Leo continued.
"They're true. Your dreams. I really did that to you."
"What?"
"I was evil."
Piper suddenly took interest in the intricate designs on her plate. "How long have you known this?"
"Um." Leo started fiddling with his tie. "Ever since I talked to the Elders about it."
Piper stared at him, silently calculating the number of days. "That's been two weeks, Leo," she said quietly, careful not to raise her voice in the restaurant. "Two weeks and you didn't have the decency to tell me! God Leo. What, were you afraid of me? Or were you just too selfish to tell me? To frightened that this would ruin our relationship. If you had been honest and told me in the beginning, I would have accepted this information, but now...now I'm just not sure."
Leo looked up at her, sorrow written in his features. "What are we supposed to do now?"
"I don't know Leo, I don't know. But when you figure it out, be sure to let me know." With those final words she stormed out of the restaurant as Amelie called after her, "Have a nice night, ma'am!"
Leo sunk back in the chair, cursing to himself. "How did I let that slip?" he asked himself.

As Piper slammed the door to her Jeep fumbling with the keys and tripping up the front steps to her house.
"Piper."
Piper whipped around to see her ex-neighbor and ex-lover.
"Dan!"
"What, you're not happy to see me?"
"Of course I am. I'm just surprised that's all. What are you doing here?"
"I got transferred back here. And I just had to come visit. So, Leo around?"
"Um...well. We just kinda got in a fight. I left him at the restaurant."
Dan fought back a smile and reached out his hand for hers.
"Hey, I'm sorry. Come on. What do you say I take you for some ice cream and we catch up on old times?"
"Dan, I'd love to, but I'd better stay here. Leo might come home soon."
Dan began walking down the steps, clearly disappointed. "Well, okay. I'll see you sometime later, then."
"Yeah, we definitely have some catching up to do," Piper said turning around to open the door to the manor. "Actually Dan, I'm absolutely craving some chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and I don't think we have any."
"You're on!"
TBC...Okay how much did that suck!? Lol Just tell me what ya think in a review. :D
Spoiler Time: This is P/L and will end P/L...I hate greasy-hair man anyway. * shudders*
