Authors note: PLEASE READ!

Hey everyone, i've been on a HUGE writing hiatus so i'm really really sorry about that. I've been trying to update my stories now because it's summer but i've just had NO time during the school year and i've ad to deal with some personal stuff. But, it's great to be back!

So for this story, it's pretty much AU that takes place in the past, where Paige grew up with her sisters. This isn't their accurate past, but i've used some information from the show to make it more realistic. This is a three-shot, there are only going to be three chapters but I hope you guys like them! :)

I do not own Charmed but if I did, Prue would be alive and so would the show!

Enjoy!

"I don't understand, I got into a great school in France, why can't I go, I'll be with Andy I'll be fine." Prue was begging to her Grams with everything she had. She had been dreaming of this school for months. Her and Andy wanted to go to college together.

"You just can't go," her Grams stated calmly.

"Why not! I already missed one opportunity, you're not even giving me a reason!" Prue was both furious and confused.

Penny shook her head, "You have to take care of your sisters, they are your responsibility,"

"My responsibility! I have been taking care of them all my life, it's not like they ever listen to me, they won't care if I leave, they still have you and Piper, and each other, they don't need me!"

Penny sighed it was time she told Prue the truth. "I'm ill Prue."

Prude's eyes widened, you don't blurt that out during an argument. "What do you mean, you're ill?"

"It's my heart dear," Penny explained, "I don't know how long it will be before I…" she trailed off and Prue fell to the couch.

"No, no,no,no,no,no," she put her head in her hands, "No you can't be… No! I was supposed to be in France with Andy and the museum and the fancy restaurants and the…"

"Prudence listen to me!" Penny grabbed hold of her granddaughter and steadied her.

"No! Why didn't you tell me?" Prue got up violently, Penny jumped back in surprise, "You let me get so excited about France, why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't want to worry you, I…" Penny began feeling a sharp pain in her chest and gripped her heart, but Prue didn't notice and kept going.

"Didn't want to worry me? Didn't want to… so you just lied to me until you thought it was a good time to tell me?"

"Prue…" Penny sat on the couch because she couldn't stand anymore, Prue suddenly turned around and only then did she notice her Grams weak features.

"Grams…" Prue rushed to her side, Penny suddenly fell unconscious, "Grams!" Prue steadied her unconscious grandmother, "hold on Grams," Prue took the phone and called 911.

Phoebe had heard the yelling coming from downstairs, so she headed to the top of the stairs to try and hear what was going on, she didn't have much else to do, Paige was out with Glenn, and Piper was at the bank.

Phoebe couldn't believe what she was hearing, Prue was leaving? Why would she think they wouldn't care, sure they fought at times, but she still loved Prue, and didn't want her to leave the country.

She was in such deep thought that she didn't hear the rest of the argument.

"Phoebe!" Phoebe heard her name being called, it sounded as though Prue was crying, Prue never cried.

"Phoebe! Help! It's Grams!" Phoebe came racing down the stairs like her life depended on it. When she saw her Grams her eyes welled up and she turned to Prue.

"What happened?" Phoebe asked her voice hoarse from surprise.

"Phoebe, I think she had a heart attack, the ambulance is on their way it's gonna be ok just…" Prue was interrupted by her sister, who just looked at her discussed.

"You!" Phoebe spat.

Prue looked up at Phoebe with a confused and hurt expression.

"You!" Phoebe repeated, "You did this! You yelled at her and gave her a heart attack! You killed her!"

Prue gulped down the guilt she suddenly felt, "Phoebe she is not dead, I didn't know I…"

Before Prue could finish her sentence, Phoebe ran out the door and slammed it shut behind her.

Piper was just filling out some forms, when she got the call from her worried big sister, 'Grams had a heart attack, were at the hospital' the words ran through her mind like a broken record. She had left immediately, Prue had asked her to pick Paige up from her date but Piper didn't even know if she could drive.

Piper got into her car and let the tears fall down her cheeks, she had to be strong, for Paige.

Prue was pacing in the hospital waiting room, how could she let this happen? Her Grams had just told her she was dying, and she yelled, She gave her Grams a heart attack, she might have just killed her. It was all her fault, her sisters were going to hate her, heck! She hated herself right now.

Just then, the doors to the hospital swung open, revealing Piper and Paige, both looks of concern and fear on there faces. As Prue looked at them all she could think was You caused that pain, it's all your fault.

"How is she?" Piper ran up to her dry tears on her face and new ones forming, Paige remained silent, though Prue could tell that she'd been crying. Prue just shook her thoughts away, she opened her mouth to answer but no words came out.

"Prue?"

"Uh, they haven't told me anything yet," Prue explained hesitantly.

"Where's Phoebe?"

Prue sighed, "She ran off,"

"Oh…" should she go get her? Would she be ok? Piper decided to just give Phoebe some space."So they don't know what caused it?" Piper questioned sadly.

I caused it Prue told her silently, "Uhh…"

"Family of Penelope Halliwell," The doctor walked up to them holding a chart in his hand.

"Yes, uh, were her granddaughters," Prue explained.

"Is she ok?" Piper cut in.

The doctor didn't answer "May I speak to your mother or father?"

Prue shook her head, "Our mother is dead and our father is well…not in the picture."

"Is she ok?" Piper repeated impatiently.

The doctor still didn't answer, "and you're the eldest," he asked pointing to Prue.

Prue nodded.

"Is she going to be ok or not dammit!" Piper yelled catching the attention of everyone in the room.

"Piper…" Prue warned.

The doctor sighed, this was always the hardest part of the job, "May I speak to you alone," he gestured to Prue.

"No!" Piper yelled out through her tears, Prue turned around to meet the scared and worried face of her younger sisters, Paige was still silent, she turned back to the doctor, "I think you better just tell us while were together."

The doctor looked at all the scared, and worried faces, and sighed, "I'm so sorry, she's…"

"NOOOOOO!" Piper fell to the ground on her knees drowning in her tears. Paige let out a sob and fell next to Piper.

Prue felt guilt wash over her, she felt more tears arriving but held them back, "Thank you doctor," she mumbled and the doctor left quietly.

Prue bent down and held her sisters tight, giving out all of her love to them.

Piper and Paige sobbed into their big sisters shoulder, gripping her for comfort.

Phoebe watched in disgust from behind the wall, her Grams was dead, it was Prue's fault and they're hugging her. The anger and sadness building up inside her, she ran to her sisters and pulled them apart.

"You killed her!" Phoebe screamed, not caring who heard, "You gave her a heart attack!" the whole hospital turned to Prue, including Piper and Paige. "You were yelling at her, because of your stupid school in France, and you killed her!"

Phoebe ran out of the hospital furiously leaving her sisters, sitting there.

"How could you!" Paige got up, and pointed a shaking finger at Prue, "How could you!"

"Paige…" Prue begged getting up too.

"No! You…I…" Paige couldn't think of anything to say, she hadn't heard the yelling but Phoebe wouldn't lie about this. Paige turned in the direction Phoebe left in, and stormed out.

Prue heart shattered into a million little pieces, she turned to Piper but she would meet her gaze.

"Prue, she's lying right," Piper looked to her big sister, but Prue remained silent.

Piper couldn't believe it, she knew Prue would never do anything to hurt Grams but right now, Piper was so sad and so confused, she just ran out of the hospital, with out another word.

After seeing her sister leave, Prue slid down the wall and fell to the floor. She cried, she cried because her Grams was gone, she cried because her sisters hated her, and she cried because there was nothing she could do about it.

So that was part 1, I should have part 2 up tomorrow but PLEASE review and check out my other stories! :D
