Suite 518/520/San Francisco, Friday night

After freeing Cally from Kalinama's influence, it was time for Piper to go home. Bel quickly volunteered to be the one to take her there.

No reason.

"Okay, so," Bel said. "Where's the amulet?"

[absolutesnark]

Piper walked to the middle of the attic, stepping on a creaky floorboard. She quickly removed it, revealing the amulet hidden underneath.

"It's right here," she said, reaching for it.

[demonbelthazor]

Bel held out his hand. "Can I see it?" he asked.

[absolutesnark]

Piper continued to hold onto it. "Maybe I should be the one to copy it."

[demonbelthazor]

"Just for a second," Bel pleaded. "Let me get a feel for it. If I'm gonna pull of this fake, I gotta know how it's supposed to feel when a demon's holding it."

[absolutesnark]

"That's really lame," Piper said skeptically, still holding onto it.

[demonbelthazor]

"Yeah, well," Bel began, then darted forward and snatched the amulet from Piper's hands. He gave her a regretful look, then quickly shimmered out of the attic before she could try to freeze him.

[absolutesnark]

Piper shouted every swear word she had ever learned when Bel shimmered out. Then she sank down onto the couch in frustration. She couldn't believe she allowed herself to trust him again.

And then she wondered how she was going to explain this to Grams.
