Title: Faith's Star Author: icee-bear

Chapter One: Wishing Star

Piper Halliwell looked out the night sky with her eighteen-month-old son, Wyatt, sitting in her lap. She stared out into the dark, subliminally thinking about many things. Her sister, her club, being 'Charmed', Wyatt, and Leo. Piper found herself thinking about Leo more often than usual, and she often convinced herself that it was because of Wyatt's existence. After all, he's starting to take a splitting image of his father. Piper didn't think of it as missing him, although deep inside her heart that was the reason behind everything.

"Mama! Star!" Wyatt exclaimed as he looked at his mother and pointed at the tiny twinkling light in the heavens. "Star!"

Piper smiled at her son's curiosity and answered him, "Yes, honey. It's a star. You can make a wish and it will come true."

"Wha wis?" Wyatt asked Piper, clearly interested at what he just heard.

"It's anything you want." Piper tried to put in a simple way. "Anything you want to have or see or happen. If you wish really, really hard, it's gonna come true."

"Oh..." Wyatt sighed. "Bou' woo?"

Piper was surprised at this question, and answered carefully, "Well," she started, "it's supposed to be secret so that your wish will come true."

Wyatt looked up at the stars again and said, "Oh. Okay." He looked back at Piper with his beady blue eyes and crawled closer, "Can wis?" Wyatt asked.

"Of course, Baby." Piper kissed Wyatt on the head. "But you better make it fast because it's already time for bed."

"Okay." Wyatt closed his eyes in concentration, as much as he could muster, and thought in his young mind, "I mama happy." His eyes slowly fluttered open and hugged Piper, ready for bed. "Sweep no!"

Piper smiled and picked up Wyatt from their position. "Alright, buddy. Time for bed." She looked up at the stars and sighed, "I wish you'd be back here, Leo. For Wyatt."

Paige stared at the bottle of mineral water she was holding. She was at p3, apparently trying to forget things she ultimately wanted to forget, but can't. One of her friends, Laura, came up from the dance floor and tapped Paige on the shoulder. "Hey Paige." She said. "Are you okay?"

"What?" Paige said as she jerked back from the bar stool, surprised. She saw Laura standing beside her and looked at her. "Oh. Yeah. I'm fine. I was just uhh... thinking. You know try to get a break from Wyatt at home."

"Oh. Sorry I startled you." Laura sat beside Paige and asked the bartender for a drink. "Well, that's cool. I mean, Wyatt's starting to become curious and everything."

Paige laughed and took a sip from her mineral water. "You don't know how much he talks. And he's been asking me questions ever since he learned how to talk! It's like never ending. I mean, yeah, he's just stringing words together and stuff, it doesn't really make sense to an adult but it works for us."

"Really now." Laura started. "You're rambling."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are." Paige sighed. Laura stared back at her and said. "Hey, let's talk about you."

"Me?" Paige asked. "There's nothing to talk about me. I lead a very boring life."

"I haven't seen you in a while, Paige." Laura said. "I haven't seen you out in a while."

"I know." Paige answered as she twirled her straw around the bottle. "It's just been very busy lately and even if my sisters are trying to force me out the house, I never did. So I just stayed at home. And stayed there."

"Oh. So you and your sisters are getting along fine?"

Paige smiled. "Us? Yeah. We're like best friends and all. We've all been hanging out together."

"That's great!" Laura said as Paige's cell phone started to ring. "Oh. Are they calling you to come home already?"

Paige took the cell phone from her bag and stared at it. Richard. She slammed the phone back into her bag and faced Laura. "No. It's uhh... it's someone else. Besides, my sisters know I'm here so they probably wouldn't call me. Or they'd call the office or something. But yeah. I do have to go home now, try to wrangle some sleep or something."

"Yeah. Sure. Okay." Laura stood up the bar stool and headed the dance floor. "I have to get back on my dancing anyway. See you soon!" She waved to Paige as she went back to the dance floor.

"Yeah. See ya." Paige said as she turned towards the stairs and went to her car.
