Chapter 1: A New Chapter

Prue Halliwell walked toward the door of the apartment she shared with her cousins she was already dressed in her pajamas. She had been sitting on the couch watching t.v. enjoying the peace and quiet for a change her three male cousins were all working so she was alone. Her peace had been shattered by someone knocking on the door she had no clue who it could be it was ten at night after all. If it had been her boyfriend he would have just shimmered in instead of knocking so she was at a loss with who it could be.

Prue threw the door open and she saw one of the last people she would have expected standing there. Her annoyance at being disturbed faded immediately when saw the young girl standing in front of her was in tears. "Val what's the matter sweety ?" she asked pulling her baby sister into the apartment with her.

Val didn't answer at first she just wrapped her arms around her older sister and cried. Prue sat down on the couch and situated the younger girl on her lap. She rubbed her back and made small shushing noises in hopes of comforting her but without knowing what was wrong with her little sister there was no way she could help her.

After a few minutes Val's crying quieted down some and Prue tried again to find out what was wrong with her. "Bumblebee if you don't tell me what's wrong I can't help fix this." she prodded gently. While she silently fumed at her little brother she couldn't even trust him to keep an eye on their younger sisters they were always coming to her in tears because he had dropped the ball yet again.

"Don't be mad at Jakie Prue he didn't do anything this isn't his fault. I just had a fight with mom I couldn't stay at home tonight I had to get out of there. I can go stay at the manor or with Aunt Paige if you don't want me here." Val said wiping her tears from her face her dark brown eyes were bloodshot from crying so much.

Prue wrapped her arms protectively around her sister "Don't be silly you know you can come here for anything anytime you need to besides that we're all alone here the boys are at work." she assured her and she began tickling her.

Val started giggling uncontrollably her big sister always knew just what to do to make her feel better. "Prue stop this isn't fair and you know it." she protested.

"Yeah well I don't play fair now you have two choices you tell why you were fighting with mom or I keep doing this it's up to you." Prue replied.

"Prue I can't tell you why mom and I had a fight because it's something that you need to hear from mom it's not a bad thing it was just a little bit of a major shocker." Val admitted sitting up her sides were hurting from laughing so hard.

Prue made a face at her sister "Oh great I know that I'm going to love this one." She mused rolling her eyes.

"You and Jake are both going to love this one trust me." Val replied snuggling closer to her sister on the couch.

"Whatever it is it will work out I promise." Prue said kissing her on top of the head.

The next morning all the Halliwell sisters were sitting around the kitchen table at the manor. Jack came walking in lugging a heavy box he had sweat dripping down his face. "Mom where do you want this box ?" he asked grunting from the weight of it.

"Jack I can't believe I'm telling you this but orb it to the living room you look worn out." Piper said looking at him.

Jack didn't have to be told twice he orbed the box into the living room without another word. "Thank you mom that is your daughter's doings we barely made it through Thanksgiving and now she wants to decorate for Christmas." he said turning his hat around on his head so that it was backwards.

"If you're doing this where is your sister ?" Prue asked looking at her nephew like he was crazy.

"In the driveway playing basketball with Al and Parks. I drew the short end of the stick so I have to carry the boxes in the house. And before you say anything my sister scares the hell out of me so I do what she asks." Jack said sitting on a stool at the counter.

"Speaking of those two what time did you three get in last night ?" Paige asked they had all worked the night before and slept at her house.

"You mean this morning we didn't get in until five we got off work at midnight and then we went out some places after work." he explained he wasn't about to tell his aunt that they had been at a strip club or that Wyatt was with them because he been bartending too.

"So in other words you boys were out prowling for women again." Phoebe said giving him a rueful smile.

Jack shook his head they just couldn't help themselves "Yes we were but as you can see we have no luck we all passed out in Aunt Paige's living room." he replied.

Prue checked her watch she was wondering where the oldest five were they were supposed to be here by now. "Where the hell are those kids at ? They are five minutes late I swear they don't know when to get off the dime." she bitched.

"Keep your panties on Aunt Prue we're here some of us just got off work." Chris said as he orbed in with his brother and cousins. He went over to Jack tossed his hat to Wyatt, put him in a head lock and he rubbed his knuckles across his scalp. "Hey Jackie what's up baby bro ?"

"Chris let me go." Jack protested trying to get away from him but to no avail Chris had a good hold on him. "Wy make him let me go." he whined like a little boy.

Wyatt looked at both of his brothers and chuckled "Chris let Jack go so he stops whining like a little baby." he ordered in a light tone.

Chris rolled his eyes and released his brother "Fine you guys ruin all my fun." he relented sitting down on the other stool pretending to pout.

Henry laughed at the three brothers and shook his head "Where is Al ? I wasn't done with him yesterday and he orbed out on me before he answered my question." he said he was on the quest to find out what his middle name was and he had no luck so far.

Alan came walking through the kitchen door at that moment and jumped on his older brother's back. "Sorry about yesterday Hank but mom and the aunts were calling me they had another demon." he explained jumping back down.

"Sure they did you are just dodging the question just tell the truth kid." Henry replied smirking at his little brother.

Jake and Prue shared a look they just wanted to know what the hell their mom and aunts wanted with them this early when they had time off school. "What do you ladies want with us this time ?" Jake asked not at all sure he wanted to know.

"And does it have anything to do with why Val slept in my bed last night ?" Prue chimed in she was worried about her little sister.

Piper looked at Phoebe with an arched eyebrow "Phoebe has something that she wants to tell all of you." she said cheerfully a little too cheerfully.

Phoebe frowned at her sister but she was right she did have to tell them. "Well you guys see there is no easy way to say this so I'll just say it." Phoebe began and her son and daughter looked at her expectantly. "I'm pregnant." She shutting her eyes because she was unsure of what her kids would think.

"Mom that is great you know how much I love being a big sister." Prue said smiling that pretty much explained why Val was so upset.

"Let me just start by saying that I love all of my sisters but if it is all the same I think this time I'm hoping for a brother." Jake replied and Prue smacked him on the back of his head.

Jack and Alan shared a look but then they smiled maybe they had changed some things for the better already.

"That is great so what is the problem you called us here to talk about ?" Wyatt asked knowing that to them that could have been the problem.

Paige answered her nephew "That means that all four of us are pregnant and like Alan said we had a demon yesterday and we had to call him and Jack for help. There are just some things we can't do right now hand to hand combat is one of them." she explained.

"So where do we come in ?" Henry asked knowing there was a very good chance he wasn't going to like this.

"Ok you five need to decide amongst yourselves which three of you are going to do something for us. And sorry Hank you have no choice you have to do this." Prue informed her nieces and nephews.

"Wy don't you even look at me like that I'll do whatever it is you have charges, school, work, and sometimes you have to pull shifts at the hospital. My job is easier for me to get away from." Chris said when it looked like Wyatt was going to go into his overprotective jerk mode.

"When you put it that way I can't argue with you." Wyatt said letting Chris think he had won but he would still keep a close eye on him.

"Jakie you have no choice I'm not letting you put yourself in danger when I can do it. And I know with mom and the aunts that is likely to happen." Prue said shooting down her brother before he even opened his mouth.

"God Prue you sure know how to make me feel like less of a man. I can take care of myself and contrary to what you believe it's my job to take care of you sometimes too." Jake shot back he worried about his sister she was one of his best friends.

"You two are not going to start right now Coop you can sit on the sidelines with me and we'll go grab Chuck and find a way to get into trouble." Wyatt said stepping in before they had a chance to start fighting.

Henry laughed at his cousins they would fight if someone was trying to kill them which was actually the case. "C. Perry I hope you know it's not smart to volunteer for anything we learned that much in the marines." he said shaking his head he had no other choice and he had a feeling he wasn't going to like what he had just gotten roped into.

"So what is going on that me and Wy are being left out of ?" Jake asked he hated that his sister had to protect him all the time.

"Chris, Henry, and Prue are going to be the Charmed Ones for the time being. We're not stepping down or anything like that but there are going to be certain demons we can't go after and you guys are going to need the power of three to take care of them. So this way we don't have to go in extra dangerous situations and you get a power boost for a while." Piper explained and the youngsters chins all hit the floor.

Chris, Henry, and Prue stood in the attic along with their mothers and aunts they were looking down at the book of shadows. They were looking at the passage that would give them the power of three.

"Anyone of you three can start reading that any time you want to." Prue commented pregnancy was making her even more pissy than usual.

"Peanut you're the oldest you do it." Piper told her son and he just shrugged.

"Hear now the words of the witches. The secrets we hid in the night. The oldest of gods are invoked here. The great work of magic is sought. In this night and in this hour I call upon the ancient power. Bring your powers to us cousins three we want the power give us the power." Chris chanted he had to make a quick word substitution but other the that it was the same thing Phoebe had read more than twenty years before.

"So did that work ?" Henry asked his cousin he didn't feel any different but then again he couldn't be sure.

"There's one way to find out come on lets go downstairs." Paige said as she led them all down the steps to the foyer and she stood all three of them under the chandelier.

"Alright Aunt Paige we're standing here now what ?" Prue asked sarcastically she had things to do mostly check up on how her plan to get Wyatt and Liz together was going.

"Henry take both Chris and Prue's hands." Phoebe said putting her daughter's and nephew's hands in his.

Prue frowned "Mom nothing is happening here." she bitched.

"Prue I know you like to bitch a lot but bear with us a minute that would be because you and Chris aren't holding hands." Piper pointed out to her oldest niece.

Prue looked reluctant to take Chris' out stretched hand. "Ladybug." Henry growled at her he didn't know why she was being that way.

"Fine." Prue agreed laying her hand in Chris'. The chandelier above them began to shake as if an earthquake was happening. A brilliant blue light shone down on all three of them and then as quickly as it came it stopped.

"Ladybug I think that might have been what you were looking for to happen." Chris suggested to her letting go of both his cousins' hands.

"You think Chrissy ?" Prue asked him sarcastically.

Henry cocked his head to the side and raised an eyebrow. "I thought the Charmed Ones were all supposed to have each of the powers that Melinda Warren had ?" he asked the face he was making made him look like his mother.

"That is right one is supposed to have the power of telekinesis, one the power to freeze time, and one the power to see into the future." Prue explained to her nephew.

"All three of us have telekinesis but Hank does have the power to freeze." Chris pointed out logically.

"That means one of you is going to develop a new power because of this my money is on Ladybug she already has empathy and levitation." Phoebe said smiling at her daughter.

"I'm so excited about that now Jake and I have more powers in common." Prue commented dryly.

"So you guys have any demons that need killing now ?" Chris asked in giddy excitement.

"No you three go home we're fine for now if we have any big demons we will call you. Chris you and Henry need to get some sleep you just got off work." Paige said reasonably they couldn't expect them to go around running on nothing but fumes.

"Not so fast you three there is one more little matter that has to be dealt with you need a whitelighter." Piper stopped them from orbing out.

The three cousins looked and each other and said in unison "Anyone but Wyatt."

"Fine that leaves you with Leo, Andy, Kyle, J.D. and Sam." Prue listed off for them she would do it but her sisters would flip out on her.

"Maybe it would be best if they went with Leo he is very good at what he does after all." Phoebe suggested she really didn't want her baby getting hurt trying to help her out.

"No absolutely not I don't want my dad as a whitelighter and don't even suggest Sam, Hank will hire a darklighter to kill him." Chris said putting his foot down.

"Fine then use Kyle but don't be so damn stubborn you three." Paige said throwing her hands up in the air.

"That was funny mom I said I was trying not to hate him I'm not quite there yet." Henry objected putting a stop to that idea before it ever got started.

"Let me save you the trouble the only one we will all agree on is Uncle Andy that is if he doesn't mind taking the job." Prue said answering for her cousins she could already tell she was going to be the one who kept them in line and on task.

"He would be more than happy to be your whitelighter." Prue answered for her husband if he didn't like it that was his problem not hers.

"Now you three can go if you want to." Piper dismissed them with a wave of her hand.

Wyatt had his long legs stretched out across the railing on the balcony where he was sitting with Liz beside him it seemed like the two of them were spending less and less time with each other these days and that didn't sit well with him at all.

"So you mean to tell me Aunt Piper actually relinquished a little bit of control ?" Liz asked her best friend incredulously.

Wyatt smirked at her "Yeah mom actually let the three of them take on the power of three because they are all pregnant I couldn't believe it either." he replied.

"That is surprising I just hope it doesn't interfere with the whole thirteen thing." Liz said laying her head on his shoulder.

"That is the one thing you don't have to worry about Lizzie they wouldn't let anything come before that. So we've talked about me how have things been with you ?" he asked he genuinely wanted to know he didn't like it when he didn't know what was going on in her life.

Liz blushed "Well things have been going good I'm actually glad that Prue got me back in the dating game I don't know where she has found some of these guys but they have been pretty great." she gushed not noticing the frown that appeared on Wyatt's face.

"You know Prue she wouldn't set you up with a jerk you find enough of those on your own." he joked swallowing the jealousy that was building within him.

"At least I don't date brainless bimbos like you do Halliwell." Liz shot back at him playfully.

Wyatt couldn't help but smile at her "Hey some of those bimbos were on the same cheerleading squad as you and that would make you chief bimbo because if I remember correctly you were head cheerleader." He said acting like he was searching his memory for the correct details.

"And you were the quarterback so they couldn't keep their hands off of you." Liz reminded him a twinkle in her brown eyes.

Wyatt threw his hands up in the air "I will never live that down with you will I Shane ?" he asked already knowing the answer to that.

Liz stuck her tongue out at him "Not a chance Halliwell." she said trying to squirm away from him when he pulled her down on his lap.

"I think that you better tell me you'll let it go or I will go to my last resort." Wyatt threatened a gleam in his eyes.

"You wouldn't dare I will not give in to threats Wy." Liz said stubbornly.

Wyatt smiled big at her "Well you had your chance now we do things my way." he said before he began tickling her.

Liz squealed she hated to be tickled and he knew it t he big dumb jerk. "Wyatt Matthew Halliwell you better stop right now my big brother is in there all I have to do is yell and he will come out here." she managed to get out.

"Oh Lizzie you never needed Troy to fight your battles before now shouldn't be any different." he taunted her and he kept right on doing what he was doing.

Liz frowned up at him the best she could "I was being nice to you but if you don't stop I swear I will call Aunt Piper and tell her everything you ever did bad as a kid." she knew she had him Piper Halliwell was the one person he feared.

"That was cold Lizzie." he said and he started smothering her with kisses on her forehead.

"Oh Wy you never know when to quit." she yelled at him but deep down she really liked it.

Val and Troy were inside the apartment sitting on the couch so they could watch Wyatt and Liz but they couldn't see them. That was a good thing because at the moment Val was straddling Troy trying very hard to stick her tongue down his throat.

Troy pushed her off the top of him and cast a glance outside to see his sister sitting in Wyatt's lap he was kissing her all over her forehead. "Val you know that we shouldn't be doing this Wy and Liz could walk in any second not to mention I'm eight years older than you." he said trying to make her see reason.

"Troy I don't care I think I like you a lot." Val protested not knowing what she really felt for him or if it was just the fact that she shouldn't be with him that was turning her on.

"I'm not saying we can't do this I'm just saying that it is a very bad idea. I like living and trust me if Wy doesn't kill me Prue will it doesn't matter that I'm her best friend you're her baby sister." he replied he knew what she felt for him he was an empath too.

Orbs appeared in the room breaking off their conversation it was the other three occupants of the apartment. The first thing Prue did was crane her head so she could look outside at Wyatt and Liz. "You two have been here with them all morning how are things on the Wyatt and Liz front ?" she asked hoping beyond all hope what she was seeing meant that her plan was working and they were finally going to get together.

"No change they have been sitting out there talking for about an hour. That kissing you're seeing is no more than what they normally do." Val reported praying her sister didn't notice how flushed she was.

Prue stomped her foot angrily "That is it I have had it with them they are going to have to pay for the therapy I need when they make me crazy." she ranted only to feel a pair of strong arms wrap around her waist.

"You do know you wouldn't go crazy if you didn't insist on watching their every move." Chuck whispered in her ear kissing her up the side of her neck.

"Oh please no the last thing I want to see is my sister and her boyfriend making out it is weird for me." Val protested if only they knew what she had just been doing with Troy.

Chris chuckled at his little cousin "Get used to it if you're going to hang out here you're going to have to witness this. If you like you can join our single people association it consists of me, Hank, B, Troy, Liz, Wy, Parker, and sometimes Calleigh." he offered.

"No thanks I'll pass I need to go catch up with the girls anyway maybe they have a demon or something we can go after." Val said turning down her cousin's offer.

"No demons just heart your ass out of here you and I will talk about your problems with mom later." Prue said and Val hearted out.

Chuck looked at Prue confused "I thought her and Aunt Phoebe never fought." he said simply.

"They don't but mom is pregnant and I don't think Val is very happy about it." Prue answered his statement.

Before Chuck could question her any further Liz came storming into the room followed by Wyatt. "Lizzie come on don't be like that." he begged her.

Liz whirled around on her heels so she could glare at her best friend. "I am not Prue or Mel you can't tell me who I can or can't go out with Wyatt. You can never just be happy for me it always has to be like this with you." she all but shouted at him.

"Liz I was only telling you to be careful I don't want to see you get hurt and trust me this guy is going to hurt you bad." Wyatt defended the stance he was taking on the topic.

"Wy it's my choice to make I have to put myself back out there." Liz shot back at him he was so overbearing sometimes she didn't know how the Halliwell girls put up with him.

"Hank, Chris one of you please tell her that Lance Sullivan is going to break her heart and then I will have to be the one to put the pieces back together." Wyatt pleaded with his brother and cousin.

"Don't look at me on this one Wy, Lizzie is a big girl and I assure you I will personally kill Lance if he hurts her." Henry said backing up he didn't want to get in the middle of that one.

"See there Wy even Hank who has a worse track record with love than I do is agreeing with me." Liz said pointing at Hank so that Wyatt would get her point.

Chuck let out a loud whistle "Hey you guys are my best friends there is no need for you to be fighting like this Wyatt if Liz wants to see him again she can. And Liz, Wyatt just doesn't want to see you get hurt." he tried to reason with them but that wasn't working out very well for him.

Wyatt and Liz continued to glare at each other. "Alright Liz go home and calm down Wy you stay here and calm down and then try to talk this out later." Troy suggested knowing neither one would back down.

"Fine Chris would you please orb me home ?" she asked her friend sweetly and he waved his hand making her disappear in a column of orbs.

"I'm going off to think." Wyatt huffed before orbing out.

"Ok we have to do something if this gets any worse this was not supposed to happen." Prue said frantically.

"Prue I don't think I have to remind you that this was your idea now you have to suffer with it." Troy pointed out to her.

"He is right but if it gets worse than this we will do something about it." Chris agreed with both of them.

"Damn right we will after all we're the all powerful Charmed Ones now we can do anything we set our minds to. And right now mine is set on getting two hours of sleep wake me up then." Hank announced happily walking down the hall to his room.

"I am so confused right now I have no clue what the hell is going on." Chuck said shaking his head this was what happened when he didn't talk to one of the Halliwells for a couple of hours.

Prue smiled at him "Don't worry Chip I will make sure to catch you up." she said reaching up to kiss him.

Chris shook and his head and began walking down the hall "And now I'm going to bed wake me up when you wake Hank up. And I'm begging you three slobs not to mess up my apartment I just cleaned." he pleaded with them and he got the finger from all three of them in return.

Jack came in the living room where his sister was sitting on the couch going through a box of Christmas decorations. He had a book behind his back he ran over and jumped on the couch next to Mel.

Mel looked up and smiled at him, for some reason lately he seemed to be attached to her at the hip when he didn't have another demon to go after. "What do you have in your hand Jack ?" she asked mildly curious.

Jack gave her a big smile causing the lines around his eyes to crease. "Mel I know this is going to sound weird but will you read this to me ?" he asked handing her the book he had in his hands.

Mel took the book and looked over it, it had been one of her favorites when she was little. "Green Eggs and Ham a very good choice Jack of course I'll read to you." she said putting the box she had been going through on the floor.

"Thank you Mel it's just that I'm a little home sick and when I was a little boy you always used to read to me." he explained laying his head in her lap.

Mel took his hat off and kissed him on top of his head "You don't have to explain yourself to me baby brother you wanted to spend time with me it's ok." she assured him and she opened the book.

Piper was leaning against the door jamb to the living room where her youngest two children couldn't see her and she was watching them. Leo saw her and walked over and wrapped his arms around her from behind.

"We did a damn good job with that girl Leo." she said softly she didn't want either one of them to know that she was standing there.

"We did a damn good job with all of them," Leo replied resting his chin on her shoulder "Jack seems to really love his sister doesn't he ?" he asked not expecting to get an answer from her.

"I'll tell you this much his sister really loves him look at the way she gets him to open up so like he has no care in the world." Piper retorted.

Leo smiled down at his wife "Piper she is you made over she has a really big heart with a lot of love to give." he pointed out.

"Seeing them like that makes me wish that I had got to be around Parker when he was growing up. That boy could use someone to love him." Piper mused.

"Well he has you now and that's all that matters." Leo said kissing her to shut her up.

Mel looked down from the book to see that Jack had fallen asleep on her "Mom, dad you know you two aren't as quiet as you think you are. I know you're out there sneaking up on me right now is a bad idea there is no telling what will go flying across the room." she called out to them softly if Jack could manage to get some sleep she didn't want to wake him up.

"He fell asleep on you did he ?" Leo asked this was as peaceful as he had ever seen his son.

Mel looked up and shook her head "Yeah he was out like a light before I even got to page five." she replied running her fingers through his hair.

Piper sat down next to her daughter squeezing into the small space while she still could. "You are going to make a great big sister Mel."

"Thanks mom I did learn from the best." Mel said laying her head on her mother's shoulder.

Piper kissed her on the head "I'm not the best I'm just do the best I can your Aunt Prue is a much better big sister than I am." she replied hoping her sister wasn't around to hear it she had a big enough ego already.

Leo looked at his son sleeping peacefully on Melinda "Mel you want me to orb him up to bed ?" he asked it didn't look comfortable for her to have someone so heavy sleeping on her.

Mel looked down at her little brother he looked like a little boy when he was sleeping. "Dad I think for some reason I'm his security blanket when Al isn't around so I don't want him to wake up too far from me in case he gets scared or something." she answered.

Leo smiled at the way his kids always took care of each other "That is probably true he has latched onto you in the last few weeks. I'll just orb him over on the love seat so you can have some more room." he said waving his hand to transfer his baby boy over to the other couch.

Wyatt was sitting cross legged on top of the golden gate bridge he had his elbows resting on his knees and his chin was resting in his hands. His deep blue eyes looked troubled the problem was he didn't know why he was feeling the way he was feeling. He and Liz hardly ever fought and if they did they usually made up in a matter of moments. Deep down he knew he was the one to blame for the fight starting in the first place. But Liz had to understand how much she meant to him. Wyatt had been the one to pick up the pieces of her shattered heart every time one of her boyfriends did something to hurt her. The worse of her breakups had come two years before when she had called it off with her fiancé he still wasn't really sure why she had done it but he was glad. Part of him knew that he was going to have to let her go find her happiness someday but he just wasn't ready to lose her yet.

At any rate though he had been the one who sat up long nights with her when she couldn't sleep from the hurt in her heart. His first inclination had been to kick the guys ass but she insisted that he hadn't done anything to make her call the wedding off. Wyatt would always be there for her no matter what she was his best friend it was like he had told her the night she found out Roman cheated on her he could live without Chuck but he couldn't live without her.

He couldn't help but wonder sometimes if there had been more behind those words than even he knew. As he had always maintained he loved Liz but he loved her like a sister. Then why was it he found himself staring at her more and more lately with lust in his heart ?

He ran a hand through his blond locks he was so confused with his own feelings right now that he couldn't tell which way was up. His musings on life were interrupted when he saw shimmers form beside him.

"Wy it's cold up here and you don't even have a coat on." Jake said sitting beside his cousin it wasn't hard to tell that the two of them were related they had the same blue eyes and the same short blond hair. Hell they even walked alike.

Wyatt turned to look at his cousin he thought for sure they would have sent either Chris or Henry to check up on him. "I hadn't noticed that C.J. I just came up here to think I guess I sort of lost track of time." he said he wasn't being sarcastic he rubbed his arms against the cold he hadn't realized that he was freezing until his cousin said something about it.

Jake looked at his cousin concerned he called him C.J. even less than he called him Jake. Jake pulled off one of the jackets he was wearing and handed it to his cousin. "This is why you keep me around you're never prepared in situations like these." he joked lamely.

Wyatt smiled gratefully at his younger cousin and put the jacket on "Thanks Coop you're a life saver I don't know what I would do without you sometimes." he said sounding grateful.

"I have no doubt in my mind that you would fall apart without me." Jake replied giving him an award winning smile before he asked "You wanna talk about it Wy?" he could see the pain in his eyes. He had to mentally curse his sister for not being able to mind her own business for five minutes.

Wyatt sighed and rubbed his hands over his face. "There is nothing to talk about I was a jerk and now Lizzie is mad at me. It's as simple as that." he said sadly.

Jake shook his head "Wy it doesn't have to be as simple as that you can still fix this you still have time. Go to her now and tell her how sorry you are but don't let a rift come between the two of you, you have been friends for over twenty years." he tried reasoning with the older blond.

Wyatt smiled up at his cousin "Anybody ever tell you that your sisters are very lucky to have you ? Because if they didn't I am now you're a great big brother a lot better than me sometimes. I almost feel sorry for your new sibling though it has to put up with you and Prue. All joking aside though you're a good man Cookie Dough stop doubting yourself all the time." he said before orbing away to go see Liz leaving Jake on the bridge all alone.

Jake looked at the empty spot where his cousin had just been "Something tells me you're not going to be saying that when you find out what I've been hiding this time Wy." he said before he shimmered out to confer with his sister about the mess she had just made.
