GOODBYE

Summary: Chris is poisoned by a demon, but doesn't tell anyone. When the poison begins to spread, will a father's power save him or will he give up his life?

Chris the snake-eyed demon flying to the oppisite side of the room. But not before he was injured by her claw-like nails. The wound hurt for a moment, but stopped almost immediatly. When the young whitelighter looked up, the demon had already gotten away. "Damn," he muttered under his breathe. Chris checked his wound to find it wasn't deep so it wasn't fatal,of course. But all the same he bandaged it up. With that, he orbed to meet Piper at the hospital.

She was getting a check-up for Baby Chris. He was going to be born within a few weeks and everyone in the Halliwell Manor was on edge about it. They'd seen less and less of Leo lately. He'd shown up for check-ups and healing purposes, but usually kept his distance. This irritated Chris to no end. To him, it was as if Leo didn't even care that his son was about to be born. It made Chris seem insignificant. Leo had been there or Wyatt's birth, but right now, he was afraid Leo wouldn't be there for his.

Chirs controlled his emotions when the elevator doors opened for him to see Phoebe, Paige, Leo and Baby Wyatt. "What's going on?" They all turned to look his way.

"Oh, nothing much," Paige said restless, "Where were you anyway?"

"I was..."he hesitated, not sure if he should tell her about the demon attack or not, "Um, I was fighting a demon you should've been vanquishing," telling the truth but, of course not every little detail. They didn't need to know everything that happened, did they?

"Oh, sorry! Piper thought she was having the baby now, so we rushed. Is it gone? Is there anything we can do now?" Phoebe explained.

"What?!" Phoebe flinched slighly, "We-when? Is she ok?!" Phoebe and Paige nodded in unison. "Wait, why isn't 'he' in there too?" Chris asked pointing to Leo.

"He got here late, said he was picking up Wyatt." Paige said, obviously wondering why he even cared.

"Oh, and about the demon, she got away," his voice slightly faultered at the end. Now he knew he wasn't as important as Wyatt. Leo cared more about Wyatt at daycare then Chris about to be born! Chris stopped these thoughts when he noticed the looks he was getting from Phoebe (I know Phoebe didn't have her power to sense other's feelings anymore but just go along with it kk).

The double doors to the Emergency Room swung open to see an old wry looking doctor. He walked straight up to them. "Are you the family of Piper Halliwell?" They all answered 'yes' in a whisper. He nodded with a smile, "You're the father I assume," he didn't leave room for Leo to answer, "Your son will be with you shortly, and your wife is free to see," With that said, the doctor walked away and everyone's eyes turned directly to Chris. "What?'

"Why didn't you mention it was you're birthday?"Phoebe asked, ready for a party.

"Uh...I forgot?" Truely, he hadn't really thought about it.

Paige started to follow Leo through the same doors the doctor had come through. "How do you forget your own birthday? Especially, if your about to be born before your own eyes!"

"I never knew you could be so klutzy, Chris!" Phoebe laughed softly.

"So that's what I get from you!" Chris stated sarcasticly. She gave him a dirty look and entered Piper's room. Following in after her, Chris saw how crowded the small hospital room was, Phoebe, Leo, and Paige hovered around Piper asking questions such as: 'Do you know how Baby Chris is?' and 'How are you feeling?' ect. But Chris just walked by saying Hi and sat in the seat near the head of the bed behind Leo.

"Chris?" Piper's voice came from the bed.

Chris stood, "Yeah, Mom?" She was smiling but worry filled her eyes.

"I don't have to worry about any illnesses or anything, right?" Before he could answer, a nurse entered carring a small bundle in her arms.

With a large smile on her face she introduced the small baby in her arms, "He's a perfectly healthy boy and very excited to meet you," The young nurse handed Baby Chris to the first pair of open arms, Leo. Chris's heart stopped as he looked up at his father's face afraid to see what his expretion gave away. He was smiling! Chris alsmost smiled too, but caught himself. Piper was becoming restless so the baby was passed to her. "We also need a name for--"

"Chris," his head immediatly swung at his name, "His name is Chris Perry Halliwell," she was smiling agan, even brighter than before.

"Alright, Chris it is. That' such a nice name!" She walked out of the room writing something down on the charts she was carrying. As soon as she left, an akward silence filled cramped room (AN: A GAY BABY WAS JUST BORN, let's hope it wasn't Chris 00;).

Just then the wound began to sting. Quietly checking it, he saw a fair amount of blood on his shirt. "Um, I'm going to go look in the Book of Shadow's for that demon," Chris said excusing himself.

Paige stood, "I'll go with you."

"No!" They all gave him a look, "No, you stay here. I'll be fine." Without giving any of them time to try and stop him again, he orbed away. He landed in the living room, where he fell onto the couch; careful not to get any blood on the furnature. Chris hen lifted his shirt over his head (which just made the wound hurt even more) and walked upstairs to change. 'I have a bad feeling about this,' he thought to himself. But there was no way he was going to tell anyone about it!
