Disclaimer: i own nothing but the story.
A/N: The song is 'morningstar' by AFI. It's really a great song and worth checking
out. Oh and Piper is maybe 15 or so in this, Prue around 16/17 something like that.
bMorningStar/b
iI saw a star beneath the stairs,
Glowing through the melting walls.
Who will be first to begin their fall?
Or will we become one?/I
Piper Halliwell sat in her room. It was her own personal prison, but also her safe-
haven. The one place she could be herself not the shy awkward girl she was in
public, or rather at school. She hated school because they hated her. It was that
simple. She didn't have many real friends.
A few that she was close with but mainly her sister's were her friends, but recently
there social-standing meant they weren't home a lot. It was just Piper and her walls.
Some night's she'd look at the so long she could swear they were becoming a part
of her. Slowly melting, slowly she was becoming just another property of the manor.
IAm I the star beneath the stairs?
Am I the ghost upon the stage?
Am I your anything?/I
She was so bright and so talented, but know one could see that. She was invisible
only seen at the worst times. She doubted her sister's love at times. Know body else
seemed to like her never mind love her so why would they? Her grams loved them
she knew that but they were like a big burden on her. They used up the last of her
youth, time and energy.Her grams would leave them alone a lot of the time, Prue
and Phoebe would go out making the most of it leaving Piper without a second
thought. Sometimes she wondered if she was even invisible to her own family.
II saw a star beneath the stairs,
Glowing bright before decent,
And in the morning,
There is nothing left,
But what's inside of me./I
She'd watch the same star every night. It always stood out from the rest, it was so
much more alive. She liked to think it was her mum shining down on her, giving her
strength and reassurance. After feeling better she'd awake in the morning and her
star would be gone. She never knew if it would be back and she felt so hopeless
again. Only left with her own mind for company, not even the star to talk to.
She saw the knife glimmering in front of her. All she had to do was finish it. She
wouldn't be so alone anymore. She could see her mum and finally be held. She
couldn't take all the pain inside anymore. Her sisters, her grams no matter how
much she loved them and they loved her, they expected so much for so little back.
She had to break up fight's, cook meals, get A's, clean, everything. This was the
way out.
IAnd I don't want to die tonight.
Will you believe in me?
And I don't want to fall into light./I
Piper struggled with herself whether or not she could or wanted to do this. She didn't
want to cause her family any more pain through loss. She didn't want to take the
easy way out and prove she was a loser. She needed help she couldn't stop this on
her own and just carry on in her daily routine. She wanted to feel loved, needed,
wanted.
IWill you wish upon?
Will you walk upon me?
I don't want to die tonight.
Will you believe in me tonight?/I
Piper now shaking and crying held the blade to her tender wrist. She stayed like that
ready to press it against her skin at any minute when the knife was taken out of her
hand. She still couldn't move the fear, the confusion was just too high. Next thing
she felt was warmth. Warmth and love? She turned and looked at the person who
choose to believe in her.
It was Prue. She looked up at her big sister feeling so ashamed but relieved. Piper
was overwhelmed with emotions as she crumbled into her big sisters arm's sobbing
her pain out. Prue didn't even say anything she just held her, comforted her.
Something broke through the sound of her own crying. Prue: telling her it would all
be ok. She was there for her. Piper believed it. She always had believed what Prue
had said and in her heart she knew now it would be ok.
