As Paige moved in with Piper and Phoebe, she realized that the girls are that annoying as she thought, and that she actually loving the feeling of having big sisters. Phoebe, is just… well Phoebe! Although she matured a bit since Prue died, she was forced to be the middle sister but she's still the fun, free-spirited Phoebe. Piper, she used to be the heart of the family, the middle sister who kept Prue and Phoebe from killing each other, she take care of her big and her baby sister at the same time, but now, she has the 'big sister' role, of course not by choice but by fate. She adores Paige, she loves being a big sister for both Phoebe and Paige, but she needs her big sister, she never got used to not having Prue around. But what is important is that, all three of them got along smoothly.
Everything was not easy for the three sisters; they have been through hell for like a year before they finally adjusted to their new found sisterhood. Paige mastered her powers in a month time; she was so dedicated and wouldn't want to disappoint Piper and Phoebe. She studied everything she can; Phoebe taught her spell writing skills and martial arts while Piper taught her potion making and how to control her powers.
Piper and Phoebe told Page everything about Prue, just by listening to their stories; Paige developed a very strong feeling for her deceased sister. She's secretly crying to sleep upon thinking of Prue. She hated the fact that she didn't get the chance to be a "baby" sister for Prue. But something inside of her knew that it's never too late, that somehow she'll get the chance of meeting her big sister.
One lousy Sunday morning, the girls were having a great breakfast with their men, Leo, Cole and Glenn. Everything was ok until they heard the doorbell.
Piper looks at Phoebe who looks at Paige.
"Fine…I'll get it..." Paige pouted that's one of the downside of being the youngest. She was about to stand up when Glenn stopped her it's ok Paigey, sit and relax, I'll go get it for you..."Glenn said, kissing Paige on her cheeks who on the other hand stuck out her tongue to sister.
Glenn went to answer the door; it reveals a man who looks like he hasn't eaten anything good for years. Glenn studied the man in front of him, he was about to ask something when the man talked "is Prue around?" he asked.
Prue. Where did I her the name? Glenn thought for a moment "wait here" he instructed the man and closed the door behind him.
Meanwhile the group at the dinning table was laughing at Cole's recent encounter with the bounty hunters. Phoebe notice Glenn's confused look "who's that Glenn?" she asked.
"Hmmm someone" he begin, the corrected himself "a male someone is looking for a certain Prue?" everyone at the table looked so shocked, unable to move or say a word. Glenn went to Paige and whispers "something I said?" Paige glared at her giving him a don't you-know-who-Prue-is look, then it hits Glenn "she's…" she begun but was cut off by Piper and Phoebe running to the door.
Phoebe got there first, she's hesitating but she wanted to know who would look for her sister. She took a deep breath and opened the door. "Bane?" she asked not taking her eyes off to Bane.
Bane looked at her trying to remember her name "it's Phoebe right?" he asked.
Piper and Paige were just standing behind Phoebe.
Phoebe nodded. "What are you doing here?" she asked, even if it was obvious to her what his intentions are.
"Well I'm looking for Prue, is she around?" Bane asked looking at Piper.
"I think you might want to come in inside… we needed to talk" Piper said getting past Phoebe and practically pushing Bane inside.
Bane gave the sisters a confused look when he reached the conservatory, "what's wrong Piper?" he asked.
"Bane, first..." Piper started but she receives a look from the boys and Paige "introduction..." she continued.
"Bane this is Leo my husband, this is Cole Phoebe's boyfriend, that's Paige my baby sister with her boyfriend Glenn," Piper randomly points to everyone, Bane gave them a nod, waive and smile.
"Why are you here Bane?" Piper didn't waste time.
"Well like I said, I was looking for Prue, where is she anyways?" Bane asked looking at everyone.
Most of the look everywhere but Bane, Paige looked at her sisters, obviously they couldn't say it, she stepped forward and look at Bane's eyes "She's not with us anymore" she said sadly . "What?" Bane understands her statement but refused to believe it "Phoebe?" he asked for some sort of confirmation.
Phoebe's tears escaped her eyes and nod at Bane.
"No…she's…no" Bane said barely audible, he knelt on the floor crying. Phoebe looked at Piper who's about to have her own breakdown, she decided to go beside Bane to comfort him "it was nearly 3 years ago Bane, we couldn't do anything, we tried…"Phoebe explained while hugging Bane.
"She died saving us…"Phoebe added, Bane let out a small laugh "very Prue" he smiled to Phoebe. "I did everything she said, I behaved myself in prison, I gave up my properties that came from you know…" Bane said looking at the sisters "I was just out of the cell for like an hour ago, I went straight to her, to you guys…but I was late..."Bane cried some more, this time Piper move towards them.
"Why…" Piper asked.
"Piper, believe me or not, I've love your sister the moment I laid my eyes on her, it doesn't matter to me if she was the one who put me in jail, that was a welcome sacrifice for her, I wanted to be good, to be good for her, she likes me, but not enough to love me…and now that I'm all good and clean.." he was cut off but Paige and Phoebe's giggles "Hey I was just out for like an hour ago remember?" he asked turning to Phoebe "I'm sorry, go on.."Phoebe said sheepishly.
"I wanted to be with her, Phoebe. I know she'll learn to love me someday…I'm so determined in making her mine even if I have to wait a lifetime…" he finished it was evident, he's in love with Prue, no one in the room can deny it.
Piper went to hug him "Thank you Bane that made me feel good, thank you for loving my sister…" she said in tears.
"No need to thank me Piper, if not for you three I'd still be…you know…"
The sister didn't need to hear the rest of his sentence; they knew exactly what he's saying. "But I can only imagine Prue when she saw me..." Bane laughed at Prue's memory.
"Yeah so go ahead and clean up, join us for breakfast" Paige said, surprising her sisters "Hi, I'm Paige, the youngest charmed ones…" Paige introduced herself again.
"Youngest?" he asked looking at Phoebe.
"Yup, we'll catch up when you clean and shaved ok?" Phoebe answered.
"Follow me buddy" Leo offered and smile at his wife, he knew how much this means for her. Piper smiled and mounted "Thank You".
