Cleaning up (Leo/Open)

[Piper Halliwell]

Piper opened the door to her room and winced slightly at the mess she saw. Lamps and vases were knocked over and broken, the bed was in a mess, papers were blown all over the place...well basically it look like a storm with just the wind hit. The wind part being thanks to Keira. Keira had just found out about Selene, and how she was responsible for Coop and lucky for Piper she was in her room at the time.

Keira had been upset, and explained about her power. Something that affected Piper just as much as it did Keira- it was the power that had killed Prue. Why did Keira have so much things relating to Prue? It scared her and she was sure it scared a lot of other people too. Keira had a personality similar to Prue's, except sweeter like Phoebe.

Her gaze focused on the room. "Stupid wind manipulation..." she muttered. Keira had only gotten the power recently so Piper knew from experience they weren't going to see that extent to Keira's power unless she was angered again. Oh you have got to be kidding me.... She just noticed another similarity between her older sister and niece. Both of them channeled their power through anger.

Going around the room, she tried to tidy it but it frustrated her. How the hell was she supposed to fix everything without magic? If she used magic it would be personal gain. But since the mess had been made magically...

"Let the object of objection become but a dream
As I cause the seen to become unseen," she said from memory, unsure if she had gotten it right. A second later a ripple seemed to go over the room and everything righted itself. She had been so disturbed by the mess she hadn't even heard the door open as someone had entered.

[Leo Wyatt]

Leo was just coming upstairs to his and Piper's bedroom from the kitchen. He had made himself a quick sandwich, since he hadn't eaten breakfast. He opened the door in enough time to see the room look like a tornado had come through and messed everything up, and to see and hear Piper cast a spell to make it all disappear. Not to mention it was for personal gain. He stared as the room righted itself and everything was put back into it's place. "Piper!" he said as he looked at her. "You know that you aren't allowed to use spells out of personal gain. If the Elders found out, they would freak" he said as he walked towards her, the floor in one piece.

Not that he was saying he didn't prefer the room this way, it was just he hated it when the sisters used spells for personal gain. They had never been ones to follow rules, but still. And yet, Piper had just used a spell that was all too commonly used in this house. He looked into her chocolate brown eyes, some......okay almost all of his anger draining from him. He hated that he couldn't stay mad at her; she just had that affect on him. He was an angel, not to mention a pushover. A big one at that. "We could have cleaned that up ourselves" he said as a smile flicked onto his face.

[Piper Halliwell]

Hearing Leo's voice she turned around to see him standing behind her. Had he been there whole time? "Screw the elders," she muttered. Piper had never liked the elders. "They aren't the ones who had to clean up this room." Piper hated messes, she always had. Even more she hated cleaning up something she hadn't done. She smiled when she saw Leo was no longer mad - he had never liked how much Paige and Piper used that spell.

"I tried cleaning it up but it was too much, in case you didn't notice," she told him. "Besides, magic made the mess so why can't magic clean it up?" she asked cheekily.

[Leo Wyatt]

Leo smiled as Piper made her last comment. He knew how much she hated messes, even more cleaning up the ones she didn't make. After all, with the kids and nieces and nephews, she never really got a break. "Well next time, I'll help sooner and see what we can make of it" he said with a grin. "No matter how much you like using magic to clean up things, you have to be careful. Persoanl gain is goign to come back and bite you in the ass" he said as he walked over to her.

"Well at least it's back to the way it used to be" he said a she looked at her and gave a smile. "I do have to say, that you have a way with cleaning up. I mean before, it looked like the underworld. But now, it looks good" he said, taking another look around.

[Paige Matthews]

She thought she would check up on Piper, she hadn't seen her big sister in a while, and figured since she had things at Magic School taken care of she thought she'd pop over and see what was going on. Landing in a swirl of white and blue orbs, orbing in, she always did have a habit of showing up when least expected, especially lately. She appeared in the Halliwell Manor, the one place where everything changed for her.

She saw Piper and Leo right away, though something gave her the feeling that she had intervened and was just about ready to orb back out, but didn't. Instead she just stood there watching her big sister and her brother in law. She had heard Leo talk about the personal gain consequence, of course they'd dealt with that in years past, so she was sure Piper had done something like using that one spell that Leo did not think was ever appropriate.
