The next day, Piper came in to wake me up.
"Wake up Alyssa. Come on now. Breakfast is ready," she said shaking me.
"Oh ok," I yawned. "I'm getting up."
Piper handed me a towel with some soap and shampoo wrapped up in it. She pointed out how to turn on the water for the shower and went downstairs. I decided to listen to their conversation.
"So she up now?" came Prue's voice.
"Yeah, she's in the shower right now. I don't know how she will be in there though," Piper said.
"Well, I just got off the phone with Andy and he said he doesn't know who she is," said Prue.
I froze. I didn't think that she would actually check to see if my story was real. I tried to think. It was hard to think with the shower going so I shut it off and got out and started to dry off.
"Shower stopped. So, Piper, you want to find out who she really is and where she is really from?" I heard Prue ask.
"Well actually I think we should give her a chance first," said Piper.
I really had to admire her. She is just so trusting.
"Piper, she could be a serial killer or a stalker or something. I just want to get the straight story from her. Oh no! The sink is backed up again. When is Leo coming back?" Prue said exasperatingly.
The name surprised me. Was she talking about Uncle Leo? He never said how he met Aunt Piper. If you mentioned her name he would break down still.
"I don't know. I think he is supposed to be here today to fix it."
Right on cue the doorbell rang. The Council called at the same time. I froze the scene downstairs and orbbed up to them.
"So how's it going down there Piper?" they asked.
"As if you didn't know already but my story isn't working out," I said.
"We noticed. That's why we called you. Here now listen carefully. Take this note to them. Grams wrote it. In it, it says that they are to take care of you. It is written like she wrote it before she died. It'll help." They handed me the letter.
"Thanks, oh and Leo?" I asked.
"He has no idea who you are or that you are a whitelighter. Don't tell him, it might affect his and Piper's future," they said.
"I thought you guys don't approve," I said.
"Well now we don't but apparently we will accept them later on. Just don't tell him."
"Alright I won't. I'll go now so I can unfreeze them."
I orbbed back downstairs a little confused but ready to take on Prue's questions. I unfroze everyone and I heard Piper answer the door and let Leo in. I put the not into my pocket and sighed as I went downstairs. I walked in to the kitchen and couldn't surpress a smile at Uncle Leo trying to fix the sink.
"So, finally up now are we?" aske Prue in a false cheery voice. I thought I knew what was coming next.
"So, umm meet Leo. He is our handy man," said Piper.
"Nice to meet you Leo," I said. It felt weird. I knew almost everything about him, but I'm not supposed to say anything so I kept quiet.
"Well, we are going to eat in the living room so Leo can finish the sink," said Prue.
I followed her into the living room.
"Alright well, I didn't want to say this in front of Leo, but I called me friend Andy today and he said he don't know who you are or where you came from. So is there anything you want to say to us?" asked Prue.
"Yeah, Andy didn't send me and I'm sorry that I lied to you, but I didn't want to tell you the truth at first. Grams... sent me. This letter she gave to me so that you guys would know why I am here. She told me that if anything happened to me, that I should come here and that you guys would help me," I said handing Piper the letter.
She starting reading:
"Dear girls,
I know that if you are reading this than something has happened to my friend here. This is my friend Alyssa. I met her a while ago and we have remained close ever since. Please, help her if she needs it and let her stay here. I know you girls have big hearts. Remember that family is as close as you want them. I love you all, Grams."
Piper had tears in her eyes. "So this is what you meant when you said you knew Grams?"
"Yeah, like I said, she's helped me out a few times. That's how we became friends," I answered.
"So... umm like what kind of things did she help you out with?" asked Prue as she took the letter from Piper to reread it.
"Just some stuff with my family is all. She helped me understand who my aunt was and why we had to lose her and everything," I said looking straight at Piper.
"Hey, I'm all done... Sorry I'll come back in a few minutes," said Leo.
"Oh no, it's ok," said Piper wiping her face. "I'll sho you to the bathroom, I think the sink is leaking."
Piper and Leo left and Prue was still staring at the letter.
"So, why didn't you just tell us from the beginning that you were from Grams?" asked Prue.
"Well, with Grams death being so fresh in our memories I didn't want to bring any hurt to you guys by telling you that I was one of her friends you didn't know about," I answered.
"Thanks, for trying to help but I think it would have been a little better if you would have just told us. We still might have been hurt but then Prue wouldn't question you," said Piper coming back into the room.
"I'm sorry," I said as I hung my head.
"Well, it's not like we are yelling at you. Just be more truthful with us next time ok?" Prue said giving me a smile.
I had never seen her smile like that before. I kinda liked it. It made her entire face light up like I've never seen before and she seemed happy. I smiled at her in response and Piper starting giggling.
"What's with you?" Prue turned to her.
"Nothing, It's just that this morning you were mad at me for trusting her too much and now you trust her. That's funny to me," she said smiling.
God, I liked seeing them both there smiling and being happy. I just didn't know what Prue would say to Piper when she finds out later about Phoebe coming home.
Hope you guys liked it!!! Wait to see what happens when Phoebe comes home. Will Piper2 blow her cover? Please R&R!!!!!!!!
