A?N Okay, IK I have other stories i need to be writing, and IK this is really short, but it was just stuck in my head and i need to see how it plays out! BEFORE you read, there are things you need to know:
-This is the changed future!!!
-Chris is 16, Wyatt 18, and Melinda is 5
-Although changed future, Piper still passed away
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN CHARMED!!! (BUT I WISH I DID SO THAT THERE WERE MORE SEASONS)
Phoebe's heart soared as she stood in shock at the sight before her. The broken boy sat at his desk hunched over, fingers clutching a charcoal pencil. The headphones on his iPod blared music she could hear from the doorframe. Normally, she would yelled at him that he could damage his hearing, but she just stood there watching him do something he hadn't done since Piper's death. A death they thought they prevented after Chris had gone back in time, a different Chris from the one that stood before her, one that was a neurotic white lighter from the future. The door creaked a bit as she accidentally opened it farther, causing his to take out the headphones as turn his head.
"Hey, what you up to?" Phoebe tried saying as if she wasn't watching him the entire time.
"Nothing," He replied, pushing behind him to get the sketchpad in a spot not seen by Phoebe. "Privacy ever mean a thing to you? I'm 16, knock next time."
"Sorry. I was just wondering if you had any laundry." She said, using her cover. The truth was, she was there to check up on him. Ever since the event a few weeks ago, he'd been a mess.
"Paige did the laundry yesterday, but nice try." He said as he orbed away. Leaving Phoebe alone in his room. She walked across the dark green carpet to the big black wooden desk sitting in front of a window. Right in the center was indeed the book, closed. Feeling slightly intrusive and sneaky, she grabbed it and put it in her laundry basket. Walking down the stairs, Phoebe found Chris downstairs playing video games with Wyatt.
"Hey, Aunt Phoebe." Wyatt greeted, not looking up as she saw something explode on screen.
"Haven't I told you not to play those games in front of your sister? They keep her up all night with the all of the bloody images."
"Not my fault, she can always move. Can't you Mel?" Wyatt asked the little 5-year-old brunette sitting on the floor playing with an antique Barbie doll. She looked at Wyatt, with his determined glaze towards the screen trying to blow up for zombies than Chris. Her bottom lip began to tremble.
"Ever think I want to play with you?" She sat plump, brushing the hair back on her doll.
"Video games or Barbie's?" Chris asked, laughter along the lines of his voice.
"Because I'm sure Wyatt would be a pretty good prince charming for Cinderella, don't you?"
"Damn it, Chris!" Wyatt yelled in defeat as the word loser flashed across the side of his screen.
"Wy, can you play with me, please? Mary needs a date to the prom and I don't want to have to play ken again." She begged, thrusting a male Barbie towards him.
"Do I have to?" Wyatt wined to his younger sibling.
"Come on, Wyatt, you really going to say no to that puppy dog face? Chris taunted. With a death glare towards Chris, he threw the wireless controller at him and went to go sit by her. His eighteen-year-old body sat down as he grabbed the doll. Chris just shook his head in amusement as he turned a movie on.
Phoebe was safely in the laundry room now, a room she knew neither Chris nor Melinda nor Wyatt would ever go into. Setting the basket on top the washing machine, she propped herself up on the dryer. She opened the sketchbook to the first page. She was mesmerized and terrified at the same time. The magnificently drawn horrors were in such detail she felt her stomach churn. They were drawings of them. Being slaughtered by an evil power. Her heart skipped a beat as she realized who the man in black, with curly hair and clear eyes was. Wyatt. These weren't just sketches of terror, they were sketches of the old future.
SOOOO WHAT DO YOU THINK SO FAR? I KNOW IT'S REALLY SHORT BUT I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE RESPONSE I GET, SO EVEN IF YOU HATE IT, PLEASE REVIEW!
