As the sun started to shine lightly through the window, spilling over the sheets...unfamiliar sheets. Prue's eyes opened up. It all came back to her. Why did she break down? The spell was over, and she had no reason to stay there at Andy's apartment. Prue sat up on the bed, and didn't expect Andy to be there still. "Prue..." Andy's voice appeared out of nowhere. Prue jumped, and Andy tentatively put a hand on her shoulder. "So...do you want to talk about last night?" Andy asked. Prue sighed, and Andy turned her around to face him.
"Ok..." Prue said. "You said you wanted proof that I was a witch?" Andy nodded his head. "Fine...I don't know how I can explain it...so I guess I'll just show you...again..." Prue murmured. She focused on her shoes on the floor, and made them levitate in the air. She felt Andy's hand tense. "You are reacting the same way...look I'll leave you alone..."
"No, Prue..." Andy said. "Stay," Andy whispered. "Just tell me about this..." Andy said, still trying to wrap his mind around this whole witchcraft thing. Prue hesitated, "Please," Prue nodded her head. "I have no idea how I reacted the last time...but right now I am just confused. Why didn't you just tell me? Why did you use a spell?"
"A witch telling her cop boyfriend that she vanquishes evil on a daily basis. Yeah, that is so a topic to bring up during dinner," Prue murmured. Andy nodded his head in understanding, and waited for Prue to continue. "Andy aren't you going to be late for work?" Prue sighed.
"Prue...I am going to be fine," Andy whispered. "I am just here for you...and unless I get called in...I'll be fine. Now...please go on," Andy murmured, taking his hand into her own. Prue looked at his face, concern and love playing out in hazel eyes.
"Andy..." Prue murmured in protest. Andy sighed, it didn't look like Prue was going to open up anymore about this.
"Its ok if you don't want to talk about this right now..." Andy whispered.
"Andy...its not just my secret to tell," Prue explained. "Its mine, Piper's, and Phoebe's as well...I don't want to reveal it without them..." Andy smiled softly, and rubbed his hands up and down her arms. Prue leaned into him, and felt like she could forget everything...until her cell phone went off. Prue opened up her cell phone and saw it was Rex.
"Prue...where are you?" he asked a bit of anger hitting his voice.
"I'm sorry I am coming right in-," Prue started.
"Prue...you sound terrible...stay home today," Rex said, and Prue sighed in relief.
"Thanks Rex, see you tomorrow," Prue said, and she closed her cell phone. "Andy...I want to talk about this...but can we wait until both of my sisters are with me?"
"Of course Prue..." Andy murmured, and Prue once again leaned into Andy. His arms wrapped around Prue, and he buried his head into her hair. As he continued to hold her, Prue felt herself drifting off. She tried to stay awake, but was starting to succumb to her drowsiness. "Prue its ok...go ahead and go back to sleep," he murmured. Between the tiredness and when Andy started to rub her back; she fell asleep. Andy smiled at Prue's sleeping form, and heard his pager buzzing. He groaned, and transferred Prue on the bed fully. He got up and cleaned up his appearance before heading outside. He went to a shop and bought a rose for Prue. He went back up to his apartment room and laid the rose on the bedside. He scribbled a note saying he got called in for work, and that he would call at the apartment later. Andy looked at Prue as she slept, and smiled. He bent down, and brushed his lips against her forehead. "I love you Prue," he murmured, rubbing her cheek with his thumb. Andy reluctantly brought his hand back from her face, and left the room. He made sure to lock the door behind him and went towards his car dialing his cell phone simultaneously. "Morris what is going on?"
"Just a mandatory meeting...didn't want you to get in trouble," Morris said, and Andy sighed. "Something wrong?" he questioned.
"Prue just told me her secret," Andy said. "And I just wanted to be there to assure Prue that I was ok with it,"
"Well...it was just the meeting...I can handle doing the rounds," Morris said.
"Thanks Morris," Andy said.
"We are friends Andy...you can call me by my first name," Morris said.
"Thanks Darryl," Andy said, "I'll be there," he hung up the phone and headed towards the police station.
In the Halliwell Manor, Phoebe was waiting for Prue to get home. She had expected that Prue would have been home by now at least to change her clothes and get to work. Phoebe sighed, and suddenly the house phone rang. "Hello?"
"Hey Phoebs," Piper's tired voice came on the line.
"Piper...you sound tired. What's up?"
"Nothing...look I just wanted to check in. Is Prue home yet?" Piper asked.
'No...she hasn't come yet," Phoebe said in a worried voice.
"Well I wouldn't worry too much," Piper said, "Andy is going to be there with her,"
"But we have no idea how he took it," Phoebe whispered.
"Phoebe, I have to go," Piper said quickly, and she hung up the phone. Phoebe sighed, and also hung up the phone. Phoebe was worried about her older sister, and she headed towards the front door. The house phone rang again and Phoebe sighed, "Hello,"
"Hey Phoebe,"
"Oh hey Marcy," Phoebe said to her friend on the phone. "What's up?"
"Well, I was thinking we could go out for lunch," Marcy said, "it has just been a while since we have seen each other,"
"Oh I know," Phoebe said with a sigh. Being a witch did have a downside; social lives tend to slip. Phoebe bit her lip; she wanted to be sure that Prue was alright. Phoebe knew that Prue would be fine, and Phoebe smiled. "Sounds good to me," Phoebe said.
"Alright, I'll come pick you up in a few," Marcy said.
"You are already that close?" Phoebe said with a light laugh.
"Well I was going to drag you to come over if you didn't say you'd come," she said in a mock serious tone. "Is Quake ok?" Marcy asked.
"Sure, you can see Piper as well," Phoebe said grabbing her coat. She went outside and waited for Marcy to come up with her car.
Promise there will be some action next chapter :)
