Cole flames in outside the Halliwell manor and knocks on the door. Phoebe answers the door "Hey you." Cole smiles at her. "Hey can I come in?." She nods and steps aside.

Phoebe shuts the door and turns to face him. Cole smiles at her "Is this a bad time?". She shakes her head "No of course not, I love seeing you." 

He smiles sadly. Phoebe looks worried for a moment "What?, what's wrong?".

 He sighs "it's nothing, don't worry." Phoebe sighs and touches his face "I always worry about you." He grins "I can take care of myself you know?." 

He continues "I didn't make demon of the century for nothing." Phoebe frowns "That's not funny." 

Cole touches her face. "Don't you remember everything we went through and now you actually find all that funny?".

Cole sighs "Your right, I'm sorry." He smiles faintly "That joke was a bit bad taste wasn't it?".

 She nods and he kisses her. Phoebe hears her sisters calling her from the attic. "I have to go, you know the way out?". He nods at her. 

He smiles as Phoebe makes her way upstairs and she passes Colette on the way up. Colette frowns at her "Did I just hear Cole downstairs just then?". 

She nods at Colette "If you run you just might catch him, he's just leaving." Colette nods "thanks". Colette runs down the stairs and notices Cole heading out the door.

Cole hears running behind him and turns around. Colette makes it into the doorway out of breath. "Hi". Cole smiles at her "Just the person I wanted to see." She frowns "Why didn't you come and get me?, you know this place well enough by now." She continues "And why did you want to see me?."

He smiles like he knew something she didn't. "Everything will be revealed in due course." 

He leans forward in front of her face leaving just a small space to breathe. Colette could feel his breath on her face. "Meet me at the penthouse in an hour."

She frowns "Why?". He shakes his head "It doesn't matter why, all that matters is that you be there." Colette opens her mouth to protest but Cole puts his finger on her mouth. "Be there." 

He said sternly. She sighs and nods. He removed his finger and he flames out. She sighs and shuts the door.

A billion questions through her brain. "Why does he want to see me?". "I thought he didn't like me." Get a grip Colette she says to herself..."unless of course it's to do with my diary..." Stressed she heads to her room.
