The next morning, Phoebe was the first up. It was 9:00 am. After taking a quick shower, she gets dressed. Then she goes to the kitchen, and pours herself cereal. After eating, she gets on the computer. Then Piper comes downstairs.

"Hey Pheebs, good morning." Phoebe smiles. "Hey Piper, good morning." Piper takes a seat next to her. "Pheebs how did yesterday go ?" "Not to good." Piper raises a eyebrow. "What happened ?" "Didn't make a good grade."

"Aw, honey I'm sorry." Piper hugs her gently. "Pipe do you think I can do college ?" Piper smiles. "Yes, honey. I do. If you want, I can help you study." "Your busy being a chef, you dont have time." "I only work 4 days a week, I'll make time for it." "Ok, if you say so." "Now, what are you struggling in ?" "Science and math." Piper takes a deeo breath. "Yeah, those are hard, but your in luck. I'm good at them." "Oh, that good." Prue walks in, rubbing her eyes. "What you guys up to ?" Piper looks at her. "Um, talking about Phoebe's classes" Prue looks at Phoebe. "Everything going ok ?" Phoebe looks down. "Not exactly. "Why ?" "There are just some classes I have trouble in."

Prue looks at her sadly. "I'm sorry. Maybe Piper can help you. I would, but I work 40 hrs plus." "Me and Pipe talked, and she will help me when she can." Prue smiles. "Glad to hear it." Prue ruffles Phoebe's hair gently.

Bane wakes up to find his wife reading the newspaper. He hugs her from behind. "Morning baby. Rough night ?" Prue laughs "Oh, yes. If it wasnt for coffee, I would have fell over." Bane seats down. "My night, wasn't great ethier."

"I figured so. With the crash that happened and all." Bane sighed. "I heard on the news one died." " Yeah, he lost to much blood." Bane looks at her knowingly. "Yeah the 16 yr old. Didn't think he would live." Prue swallows hard.

"Its always hard to see a kid die. We done all we could though." Bane takes her hand. "I know. Wanna go with me to eat at Johnny Rockets for breakfest ?" Prue smiles. "Sure. Lets go. I'm starving." They leave a note for the other two.

Piper gets a idea. She goes to Phoebe. "Hey Phoebe. How about you and I go shopping ?" "Ok, sounds good." They drive to a shopping mall, which is crowded. Phoebe groans. "God, Piper. We'll never find a parking spot. Piper laughs.

"Sure we will a car is backing out now. Here we go." They get out and walk inside. "Where to first Pheebs ?" "Best Buy. I want a playstation." "Ok, hope their on sale." They walk in, and Phoebe finds a clerk. "Um, excuse me sir, but do you guys sell playstations ?" "Yes we do. Right this way." They follow him to the gaming section. He walks away. Phoebe scans the selection. Finding one for $165, she turns to Piper. "Found one, at a good price." "Do you have cash ?"

"Just my weekly allowance." Piper looks at her getting aggervated. "Phoebe, how much exactly ?" "Well I've saved for 2 months. So I have $80." "Ok, heres the deal. I'll pay the rest, but you have keep your grades up. If you make a F, and it affects your GPA, I WILL take the playstation away. Am I understood ?" Phoebe gulps. "Yes." They pay for it, and then go to a cosmetics store. Piper buys herself new make up and Phoebe acne cream. Piper's cell phone rings. "Hello ?"

"Hi Piper, it's Prue. Where are you and Phoebe ?" "We are at the mall. Phoebe got a playstation and I just bought make up." "Well thats nice, but please come home by 2 : 00 pm. Severe storms are suppose to come." "Ok." After shopping, they make a quick stop at Mcdonalds then go home.

All of them gather up flash lights, and blankets then go to the basement. Phoebe gets up to look out a window. Prue pulls her back. "Young lady, that is dangerous. You stay put." It is lightening bad, and hailing pretty hard. Piper and Phoebe become frightened and cuddled close to Prue. She rubs their backs. "Girls it's ok. We are safe." Soon the storm is over, and they all go back upstairs. Piper cooks dinner, Prue and Bane go to their bedroom and Phoebe hooks up her playstation.

Prue and Bane make love and soon is dinner ready. Prue and Bane's beepers go off. They rush to work. Phoebe calls a friend to barrow a game, and Piper plays with her. They fall asleep on the couch.
