~~~Line break~~~
August 2006
Paige gazed up at the house with yellow panelling and the big double doors and smiled. She gripped Henry's hand tighter and turned to look at him. He looked back at her and smiled that dazzling smile she loved so much. She turned back to the house and bathed in its image. The house had three storeys and there were Victorian windows on every side of the house. Paige loved every aspect of the house. She loved it so much because it was exactly the same as the Manor. She loved it even more because it was right next door to the Manor, which she recently moved out of to live in her own house with Henry.
"I can't believe it, or own place!" said Henry, excitedly.
"I know! And it's so close to Piper, as well! Its perfect." answered Paige.
"Anywhere's perfect with you." said Henry, smiling still.
"Awww, you're such a sap. But I love you for it."
Henry's grin widened and he leaned in to kiss her. Paige smiled and kissed back. The kiss deepened and Paige looped her arms around the back of Henry's neck as Henry's arms snaked round her waist. They couldn't get any further, though because someone was shouting at them. It was Piper.
"Hey! HEY! There will be none of that on the street outside my house! If you're gunna do it, do it inside your new house on your new bed, not outside on the street traumatising my children!"
Paige grinned and waved at her sister, a slightly mocking grin forming on her face. Piper grinned back, but motioned towards the house and went back inside.
"So, should we take her advice, then? Go inside and ... break in our new bed?" asked Paige, in a husky voice.
"I think we should." Replied Henry, in the same husky tone Paige used.
They continued kissing and somehow they managed to get to the front door and into the house. They stumbled up the stairs, bits of clothing getting flung in all directions. The couple somehow got across the landing without paying attention to where they were going and into the bedroom.
(A/N: I don't think I have to go into much detail here, I think we're all mature enough to understand what happened in the bedroom)
~~~Line Break~~~
One month later...
Paige jerked awake from the dream she was having and panted heavily. Her stomach lurched and she ran into the bathroom and threw up violently. She felt hands draw her hair from her face and hold it behind her. When she finished, she flushed the toilet.
"Thanks, honey." She said to Henry, giving him a weak smile. She brushed her teeth, undressed and got in the shower. She relaxed under the water, letting her muscles relax under the flow of the hot water. When she was out and dressed, she went downstairs, her stomach still feeling a little uneasy. However, when she smelled the breakfast being cooked, the uneasiness was replaced by ravenous hunger. She ran down the rest of the stairs and into the kitchen to see Henry over the oven, frying eggs and bacon. Hen turned around with the pan in his hand and saw Paige stood at the door. He smiled at her.
"Are you hungry? I didn't know if you would be after you threw up, so I only cooked half a breakfast for you."
As he was telling her this, he was dishing up the food onto plates. Paige grabbed her plate and dug into the food. Henry stopped eating his and watched her devour the food with wide eyes. When she finished in a total of two and a half minutes, she went over to the cupboards and started rooting through them to find something else to eat.
"I take it you were hungry, then, huh Paige?"
"Yeah. I was. I still am hung- wait." Paige's stomach lurched again.
"What?" asked Henry.
Instead of replying, she just ran out of the room and into the bathroom. Henry sighed and followed her, ready for his hair holding duties.
Later, at Piper's house.
Paige let out a triumphant cry when she found the Oreos in Piper's cupboard. She opened the packet and dug in.
After the eighth biscuit, Piper took the packet away from her. Paige made an indignant noise and tried to grab the packet. Piper held them away from her.
"No! No more! I want some more food left in my house before you leave. And, anyway we need to talk."
"About what?"
"This. The eating everything, the throwing up, but only throwing up in the morning, the weight gain..."
"I'm not following."
Piper sighed. "Well, when was your last period?"
Paige stared at Piper, with a confused expression on her face. Then, realisation dawned on her face and her expression was one of shock. "Oh, God no."
"Oh, yes. I think you need these."
Paige looked at the white sticks in Piper's hand as if they offended her greatly, which they did.
"Nu-uh, that is not possible. I am not-"
"Paige, I think you are. I should know, I'm five months along myself for the third time", said Piper, motioning to her belly, which was, as she said five months along.
Paige sighed and took the pregnancy tests from Piper's hand and went into the bathroom. She took one test after the other and sat down on the toilet seat, awaiting the results.
After a few minutes, she looked at the tests.
Three pink plus signs looked back at her.
