"I don't think we should let them go," Prue said rearranging the dining room chairs.

"Prue! They are going, it'll be fine, they will be perfectly fine!" Piper said putting the chair back that Prue had moved.

"But it's two weeks!" Prue said sitting down.

Piper ignored her and went into the kitchen. Prue had been having a hard time with the idea of the three youngest Halliwell's attending summer camp for two weeks without her and Piper.

Moments later Phoebe strolled in the back door, "Hello!" Piper exclaimed.

Phoebe waved and kept walking, "I'm going to take a nap," she said and her footsteps were heard going up the steps.

Within seconds Paige walked in holding the hand of the youngest Halliwell. "Hi Piper!" Penny said giving her big sister a hug.

"Hi sweetheart, how was the pool?" Piper asked taking Penny and Paige's wet clothes and putting them in the laundry.

"Good! I jumped in the deep end!" Penny said taking off her shoes.

"Wow! I bet that was so much fun!" Piper said, showing the 6 year old just enough enthusiasm to show that she cared.

"Did you have fun Paige?" Piper asked.

"Yes, I learned to dive," Paige answered.

She was looking in the refrigerator for something to eat.

"That's great, how about you two go get in the shower and I will get your snacks ready?" Piper told the girls.

"Where's Prue?" Penny asked.

"In the dining room," Piper said closing the fridge so Paige couldn't look anymore.

Penny turned on her heels and went to find the eldest sister.

"Hi Prue!" Penny approached her sister who was resting her head on the dining room table.

"Hi baby, how was swimming?" Prue asked.

"Good! I went in the deep end all by myself!" Penny said with the same excitement as when she told Piper.

"Great job honey, you're such a big girl!" Prue said giving her a hug.

"Go shower and then you, me and Missy Paige will play a game ok?" Prue asked. Penny nodded and smiled, "ok." She said chasing after Paige who was heading up the steps.

"I get to use Prue's shower!" They both yelled in unison and bolted up the stairs.

Prue shook her head and laughed, "What is so special about my shower?" she asked Piper who had walked into the foyer.

"Who knows," she answered.

An hour later the girls sat at the table playing Sorry.

"How many days until we go to camp?" Penny asked.

"Three!" Paige answered wiggling in her chair.

"This is going to be the best year! Penny gets to go! Finally!" the 11 year old cheered.

Penny smiled at Paige. "And just think, you get the house all to yourselves!" Phoebe said joining her sisters at the table.

"Well good evening sleepy head!" Piper said. Phoebe smiled a big mocking smile, "Good evening Pipe!" she answered lifting Penny up and setting her back down on her lap.

Penny let Phoebe wrap her arms around her and give her a hug.

"Soo Baby, are you excited for camp?" Phoebe asked, using Penny's nickname.

"Yes! I wish Piper and Pruey could go too though," Penny responded taking her turn at the game.

Prue sat up, "Maybe you guys should just.." She trailed off as Piper interrupted.

"What do you guys want for dinner?" She asked. All of the girls said something different, Prue laughed at Piper who looked shocked at the outburst.

"Okay! I'll just figure something out," Piper headed for the kitchen, but not before glaring at Prue who was trying to get the girls to stay home.

"Only 3 more days," Piper thought before heading into the kitchen to make dinner.
