Back at the manor Leo arrives home in a swirl of orbs. He hears the slamming of the front door. It was Piper and she walks through the into the kitchen. "Leo your home! Is everything okay?".

He smiles at her "Yeah everything's fine." He walks towards her and pulls her close to him and wraps his arms around her. She smiles at him "Okay mister, What have you done now?."

He smiles "Can't a man hug his wife now and again?".
She grins "Of course he can." She kisses him passionately.

The front door slams again this time is Phoebe with Paige following her closely.

They both walk into the kitchen and notices Leo and Piper kissing. Phoebe gasps "Sorry, we'll leave you to it shall we?".

Phoebe and Paige turn to leave. Piper smiles at Leo and turns to her sisters. "It's fine guys, how was your day?."

Phoebe turns around and sits on a stool leaving on the kitchen counter. "I've had the worst day ever! I've got so much work to do but I just couldn't concentrate."

Paige touches her shoulder. "Let me guess because of Cole?.

Phoebe sits up and nods. Piper sighs "Oh honey, you shouldn't let him get to you." Paige smiles "She's right you know."

She looks at Paige and snaps "It's not really that simple you know?!."

She sighs "Ever since that cow turned up, everything's changed."
She runs out the room in tears and runs upstairs to her room.

Paige turns to go after her but Piper holds her back. "I'd leave her if I were you."

Suddenly there is a knock on the door. Paige sighs "I'll get it, I guess". She opens the door and standing in front of her is Cole.
He smiles at her "Hi, can I come in".

She shrugs and stands aside to let him in. She slams the door behind him and turns around to look at him. "I'm guessing your here for Phoebe?."

He frowns "Um,Phoebe?, Whatever gave you that idea?."
She sighs exasperatedly, "Because your always telling us how much you love Phoebe and that you want to be with her..surely nothing is more important than that."

He grins "I do, but there's some business I gotta do first."

She rolls her eyes at him. "Let me guess.. Something demonic?".
He shakes her head at her. "Seriously change the record will you? Is Colette here?."

She shakes her head. "No but she went somewhere with Leo though."

He nods understanding "I see, is Leo still here?."
She nods and beckons him to follow her into the kitchen.

He nods at Leo and piper acknowledging them. Piper frowns at Cole. "What do you want?, haven't you caused enough trouble already?!".

He frowns "I wasn't aware that I've been causing trouble." He continues cockily "At least no more than usual."
Piper folds her arms "Don't be cocky Cole, it really doesn't suit you...What do you want anyway?".
Cole smiles "I'm looking for Colette she was supposed to meet me 10 mins ago for a business arrangement."

Piper frowns "What kind of business arrangement?".

He grins "Sorry can't say, Client confidentiality".
Leo steps forward towards Cole. "I dropped her off about 2 hours ago."
Cole frowns "Where exactly?".
Leo sighs "I'm not sure but I could show you?." He holds out his hand towards Cole.
Cole shakes his head. "No thanks Orbing doesn't agree with me remember?, I'll follow you."
