Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed, any of the Charmed characters, or anything Charmed-related, so it would be pointless to sue a broke-ass college student with bills coming out the wazoo.
A/N: Okay, well here's the sequel to my other story, "Reading Chris' Letter." You don't really have to read it (at least, I don't think you do), but it could definitely help you out as you're reading this story. It's really short (the other story), so you'd have enough time to go back, read it, and come back here (wink-wink).

Chris
was thrown unceremoniously through the glass door as Learsi, the new
freak of the week, came poofing into existence, and into poor Chris'
life. Ugh, today was not his day…. As he was helping himself up, he
heard a few more battle sounds, followed by Learsi's screams of
agony, and Piper groaning a "Finally!"
Chris sighed and dusted off his behind as he walked to the sisters. "I thought the plan was to use Paige as bait, not me," he said with a raised eyebrow at the girls. Piper turned to leave to the stairs and headed to her room, while Phoebe went to the kitchen, claiming she left Jason hanging on the phone.
"Yeah, well, that's what can happen in the heat of a battle: plans change," Paige commented with a smirk as she playfully patted Chris' shoulder.
Chris rolled his eyes. "Whatever." He turned to leave, but it seemed like Paige wasn't done.
"Hey, no! Wait! I wanted to talk to you about Bi--" But Chris had already orbed somewhere else, obviously not in the mood to discuss with Paige whatever it was that she wanted to discuss.
"'Bi' what, Paige?" It was Phoebe. Oops. She appeared behind Paige, arms folded as she carefully studied Paige's reaction.
"Uh, Jason hang up?" Paige tried to sound casual, which clearly wasn't working as Phoebe walked a couple of steps closer.
"Yeah. Guess he got tired of waiting for me to come back to the phone. So what was it that you wanted to talk to Chris about, again?"
"Um, well, what I was about to say to Chris was that he needed to be more careful next time, is all. Damn kid nearly ruined a whole month's worth of planning, that's what! That damn… kid," she lied, and added a swing of her arm and a nod for good measure.
Phoebe raised her eyebrow at this. "Uh-huh…. Well, I'm going upstairs to see if I can still reach Jason in Hong Kong."
"Yeah, well, I'll be right here…. Just… talking to myself," Paige said to no one in particular as she noted that she was now alone in the room. "Great, just… great."

A/N: Ooh! What was Paige gonna say before Chris orbed away? I wonder, I wonder. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, albeit, a short, miniscule, not-much-happened-here chapter. Heh. I promise the next chapter will be significantly longer. In fact, I've already typed up about 900 words (not including the author's notes and whatnot) and I'm only about halfway done. Anyway, just so you all know, I plan to make this story maybe two or three chapters long, but you never know. So with that in mind, feel free to e-mail me on any suggestions you would like to see played out on the next chapter. Flames are accepted, but please make them constructive; there's no need to get all nasty about it. Well, bye!
