Summary: Everyone knows Prue and Andy were reunited in Heaven, but will Prue have to sacrifice yet another thing for her sister's happiness? Set in Season 4 when Piper can't conceive a child of her own.

Hey, this is a story I wrote almost a year ago, before any of my other stories. But I never finished it, so I finished it last night, and decided it to post it after a friend said I definitely should. So I hope you like it, if I get reviews from people saying they want more, I have lots of ideas for this story.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two long months had passed since the mighty Prue Halliwell had passed away, reuniting her with her soul mate Andrew Trudeau. From the moment she came into the afterlife, they were inseparable. After being separated by death for two years, the emotions built up over those years came out immediately, leaving no time for chitchat.

The Elders foresaw this, and decided they would be given a very special, secret gift for their duties to destiny, and the greater good. No one knew what this gift was, or would know for quite some time. The Angelic Child was on its way.

Manor- End of Season 4

"Okay, what's going on?" Paige asked, noticed Piper's silence after the phone call she received moments earlier. "Spill."

"That was Dr. Harris on the phone. I got the results for my fertility tests." Piper began, wiping a tear away as she held back many more.

"And?" Paige questioned, she had never seen Piper look so defeated since they had met after Prue died.

"There's some problems." She added, letting a small sniff out. "Um, he said something about scarring or scar tissue, something about blunt trauma injury."

"Oh, honey." Paige comforted, she had no clue what to do other than offer hugs and support.

"He asked me if I had suffered any serious blows to the abdomen." She mumbled, giving Paige a 'you know why' look. "He seems to think, um, it would be difficult, if not impossible for me to conceive."

"I'm so sorry." Paige said, still trying to figure out how to comfort her. She had only known her for several months, although Prue probably knew exactly what to do. There it was again, 'Stop thinking that Paige!' She thought to herself. Then turning her thoughts back to Piper.

"It's weird, 'cause when I went to the future I met that little girl, I saw my little girl. I saw what she looked like and what she sounded like and the sound of her laugh." Piper rambled, wiping away tears with her sleeve before Paige offered a box of Kleenex. "I just, I can't imagine not knowing her."

"You still might." Paige insisted, fighting off tears of her own. In the past few months, Piper had been through so much, she didn't need this too.

"I might not. A lot has changed from that future." She added, thinking of what seemed like a horrible future at the time, seemed perfect to her now. It had Prue, Leo and a beautiful daughter. "I just, don't know what to tell Leo. He's so excited about having a baby."

Silence broke between the two as Paige simply pulled Piper into a tight embrace, doing all she could as a sister and friend.

Meanwhile…

Prue and Andy were walking around through the fields that were the Afterlife when good old Grams walked up to them.

"Have you made your choice yet?" Grams asked, looking towards the happy, yet heartbroken couple holding their new beautiful daughter.

"One more minute." Andy answered, seeing Prue's want to hold their daughter a little while longer. As much as they loved her, they knew Grams was right in saying she deserved a life, on Earth.

"She will be safe and happy with your sisters." Grams soothed, placing a hand on Prue's shoulder, admiring the small babe as Patty emerged from the mist. Prue simply sat down on their swing, taking several long looks at her precious daughter.

"You're my little angel." She cooed, placing a finger to her little nose, capturing every detail of her face. She looked just like Prue, with her fathers stunning crystal blue eyes. Her tiny bits of dark hair were so soft and fine, and she was so small and innocent.

"It's time." Patty said, urging them to move on. Although she sympathized deeply for Prue, since she could relate very well. Prue would feel the same way she had after giving Paige up for her own good. The only reason she was ever able to live with it was because it was to give Paige a better life.

"Did you choose a name?" Grams asked, watching Prue and Andy exchange glances.

"Yes." Prue began, beaming down at the little one in her arms. "Peyton Andrea Halliwell." The little infant in her arms began to squirm with excitement, causing everyone in the area to smile. She was a dream come true.

"It's a beautiful name." Patty smiled, wiping a tear of joy that was slowly falling down her cheek.

"For a beautiful girl." Andy grinned, playing with Peyton's tiny hands as she grasped onto his finger. He really was going to miss her, but he wanted what was best for her. Which meant living a real life.

Grams watched Prue's smile fade as she leaned in and took the babe into her arms. "It's for the best." She reminded as she handed the infant to Patty, letting Andy kiss Peyton's tiny head one last time.

"We love you." Prue smiled, wiping away a tear of her own as Andy wrapped his comforting arms around her. She fought off tears as the tiny babe held her small arm out to her parents, trying to reach them with her tiny arms. This tore at both their hearts seeing her reach out to them, begging to stay.

"See you soon." Andy muttered, smiling to his tiny daughter. It was then the three of them disappeared in a swirl of white lights, leaving him and Prue to grieve.

Manor

Piper had fallen asleep with Leo in front of the fireplace after she told him the doctor's news. They were both still sound asleep when the three entered the room.

"Piper." Grams said, brushing Piper's bangs from her eyes as they fluttered open.

"Grams?" She questioned, pulling the blanket off carefully, trying not to wake Leo. She found this very strange; Grams had never just showed up in the middle of the night like this.

"We have a gift for you." Patty said, walking into view with a white silk blanket bundled in her arms. "A gift from Prue."

"Prue?" Piper jumped hearing that, she still missed her sister deeply, and had been waiting to see her for months. "What type of gift" She asked, looking to try and see what was bundled in the blanket.

Her mother bent down, moving the blanket away from Peyton, so Piper could see the little bundle of joy. She gasped, seeing Prue's eyes and facial features on this tiny infant. And those crystal blue eyes were ones that Prue had always talked about. Every night in high school, she would ramble about Andy's beautiful eyes.

"Her name is Peyton Andrea Halliwell." Patty added, smiling as she watched Piper study the little girl.

Piper was at a loss for words, but a few managed to come out. "How?" She asked, gazing at the beautiful girl every chance she could.

"Even in death, there is life." Grams explained to Piper as she watched Piper beam as Patty handed little Peyton to her. Piper had no words to explain the excitement and sadness she felt. Prue had always given everything up for her. She gave up her childhood, Andy, her life, and now her daughter. Tears of joy and sadness sprung in her eyes as she felt the warmth from the innocent being in her arms.
