Cole came home from work, and sat down on the couch. He started rubbing his neck.

"Hey," Phoebe said walking out of the bathroom.

"Hi" Cole sighed.

"How was work?" She asked kneeling behind him and starting massaging his neck to work out the knot that he is rubbing on his neck.

"It was okay, I lost the case."

"I'm sorry are you okay?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah, I'll be fine. So how was your day?"

"I turned in my column, and it was pretty quiet at the office today no big drama, and talked with Piper and she wants us over for dinner on Friday."

"But Rachel comes over on Friday."

"I know but Piper loves her and We all love Piper's cooking." Phoebe said. "Wyatt is getting so big and Her belly is getting big as well."

"Are you okay with that?" Cole asked his wife.

"Okay with what?"

"Piper and Leo having are about to have thier second child, while we are still working on trying to have our first."

"I think so, but there are babies born everyday, so my best friend having a baby, I'm happy. And it isn't like we don't have children. You have Rachel, who feels like mine."

"That means alot to me."

"I love her, even she has a psycho mother."

Cole turned his head," Why do you always..."

"But she also comes from you too and we can see that in her." Phoebe stopped Cole from freaking out, "You know I start ovulating today?"

She moved her hands down his chest to unbutton his shirt.

"Then why are we talking?" Cole asked to start a kiss.


Phoebe came home from work, and saw Rachel and Cole on the couch watching cartoons.

"Hey you two." Phoebe said putting her laptop on the chair.

"Hey honey," Cole replied laughing at the cartoon.

"Hi Phoebe." Rachel said quietly.

"Are you two ready for dinner?"

"Uh...Yeah," Cole said.

"Um... No" Phoebe stated looking at them with Cole's wrinkled and Rachel was just a mess with greasy hair and dirty clothes.

"Rachel let's go pick out your outfit for tonight, and get you a bath, while your daddy takes an iron to his clothes."

"Okay."Rachel said walking to her room and Phoebe following her.

"So what do you want to wear?"Phoebe asked looking the closet.

"You can pick." Rachel said.

Phoebe got out an outfit and laid it out on the bed,"Okay after your bath we'll throw out these raggedy clothes Okay?"

"No." Rachel quickly said.

"But honey they have holes it isn't really good anybody to wear those kind of those clothes." Phoebe explained. "And we'll buy new ones tomorrow."

"No, It is okay, it was my fault. I over slept for bus today so I just grabbed what was on the floor. so I just need to wash them." Rachel informed.

"Okay, well take a bath and get dressed, so we can go out to eat okay?" Phoebe said walking out the door.

"Phoebe" Rachel said.

"Yea?" She questioned.

"Can you braid my hair for tonight?"

"Sure."


Phoebe was in Rachel's room to braid her hair after Rachel was done with her bath. Rachel was in her undershirt.

"Hey Rachel, where did you get this bruise from?" Phoebe asked seeing a bruise on her right shoulder.

"um...Baseball."

"You don't play baseball."

"I know it was at school we played in gym."

"How did it get on your back?"

"Well when I hit the ball. Jimmy caught it and threw it to Kyle, but I acciendently got in the way."

"Okay, and you are done." Phoebe said handing Rachel her overshirt, and seeing that Rachel was looking unconfortable, "Are you okay?"

"Alright are you guys ready?" Cole asked walking in the room.

"Yea." Rachel told Cole finishing her buttons.


They walked into Piper and Leo's house, with Leo greeting.

"Hey guys." Leo said, while Piper was walking out of the kitchen with Wyatt.

"Hii, Wyatt." Phoebe said picking him up. "It looks like I have the cutest man alive in my arms right now."

"What?!" Cole asked jokingly.

"You don't think he is cute?" Phoebe smiled at Cole, and looked down at Rachel,"Rachel do you think Wyatt is cute?"

"He is adorable."

"Cole the game is about to start." Leo said looking at his watch.

"Okay." He answered Leo with them walking into the livingroom.

"Hey Rachel why don't you go sit down with your dad." Phoebe told.

"Fine" she said not really wanting to watch baseball on TV.

Phoebe and Piper back into the kitchen.

"So... How are you doing?" Piper asked.

"I'm fine. Why do you ask?"

"I wanted to know how you were, because I am less than a month a way from having my second baby."

"Why does everybody keep asking me that?" Phoebe questioned irrated.

"Because we all know how hard you and Cole have been trying. And I haven't really asked you." Piper infomed.

"Honestly, I don't get it. I thrilled for you having another baby, because you are basically my sister and seeing how this little man has turned out so far." She started and looking at Wyatt, and back at Piper," But how can it be so hard to have a baby. When almost had two. and now that we are trying it is like impossible."

"Well you did get..."

"I don't want to count that as excuse. So if it doesn't happen this month I want to go for help."

"Really does Cole know,"

"No, but after trying for over a year, and no results. It sucks, we need help."

"Daddy?" Rachel said while Cole and Leo were getting into the game.

"Yeah, babe."

"Why don't you and Phoebe children?"

"Well, we have you." Cole telling Rachel trying advoid the subject.

"But Phoebe doesn't have a child, because I'm not hers."

"Well do you want us to have one?"

"Yeah, So why don't you have one?"

"Oh yes..." Leo said at the game.

"Guys I hate to break up this exciting event, but dinner is ready." Piper walked out of the kitchen.


"Kiha would never mistreat Rachel." Cole stated changing his clothes for bed.

"Well Rachel was acting wierd on Friday night and then was really quiet before we dropped her off tonight, and we picked her up in clothes that had holes in it and were dirty?"

"Oh so she is acting wierd, and wearing dirty clothes, you automatically think that Kiha abusing my child." Cole said getting mad at Phoebe even thinking that Rachel could be abuse.

"Did I tell you when I was braiding her hair on Friday, I saw a bruise on her back?" Phoebe asked making her she is telling her husband everything about his daughter.

"Just stop! I don't want to hear it." Cole snapped at her.

"Well it doesn't mean that it can't be happening." She yelled at him, trying to prevent her step daughter from getting hurt.

They were both looking at each other, Phoebe knowing that her husband doesn't want to heard about abused children. Cole knowing that his wife being the psychologist and has worked with children in this situation before and can tell behaviors.

"But she wouldn't do that Phoebe. She knows what will happen if we find out that Rachel is being abused." Cole stating if it is true Kiha would never see Cole again. He sat on the bed.

"I know but it isn't about Kiha now is it?" Phoebe step closer to him brushing his hair, "It is about your daughter and her safety."
