A/N: I know nothing about San Fran made up the school (i think) and the area. Sorry for the wait, and the semi short chapter .Working on the next one now and it should be longer. Hope people are still enjoying this. :)

Piper placed the soup bowls in front of Prue and Phoebe. Prue smiled and Phoebe smiled and honestly said thank you.

Piper wanted to ask Phoebe questions but every time she thought of one she chickened out and just lifted the spoon to her mouth.

Wanting to break the awkward silence Phoebe compliments the soup, "Umm. Piper the soup is really good. Probably the best I've ever had."

Piper smiled, "Thank you. Um, what's your favorite food? Maybe I can make one day. You know, if you want."

Phoebe nodded and shrugged her shoulders, "I, umm, I don't really know. I love all food really. I love pancakes though and maybe like chicken pot pie. I've only had it once, and it was frozen but it was really good."

Piper nodded, "Pancakes and chicken pot pie, I think I can handle that."

Phoebe smiled and took another bite of her soup.

When the silence came back Phoebe looked at Prue and could see the questions in her eyes, "It's ok you know. You can ask me questions. Worst case I just don't answer, but you can ask."

Prue nodded, "Sorry, right… Umm. I guess. I'm sorry. I want to ask you everything but I don't even know where to start."

Piper smiled gently, "How about something simple, where are you going to school?"

"Long Ridge" Phoebe replied.

Both Piper and Prue knew that Long Ridge wasn't the best area to be in, especially with all the drugs and gang activity. But they figured they would address that later.

Prue then asked, "What grade are you in? 10th?" Phoebe shook her head, "11th, I skipped a year in middle school. So I graduate next year. Finally."

Piper smiled, "I did too, I was always the youngest in the grade. What's your favorite subject?"

Phoebe smiled as well, "Cool. Yeah sometimes it sucks, but for the most part no one really cares or even knows I'm the youngest. I guess either math or art. I really like photography."

Prue's attention was definitely peaked, "You like photography? What kind?"

Phoebe started telling Prue and Piper about how she was really into black and white and rembrant photography, but she's getting into digital.

Prue loved that there was something that they could bond over. "Well I sometimes go out on shoots for fun, if you ever want to join."

Phoebe smiled and nodded, "For sure." A phone chimed and Phoebe blushed apologizing, "Sorry. I forgot to turn the ringer off."

Phoebe quickly read the message and typed out a quick response before putting the phone on silent.

Soon dinner was done and they were cleaning up the kitchen when Phoebe's phone started ringing. Prue noticed first and picked the phone up and handed it to Phoebe who was drying the clean dishes Piper was handing her. Phoebe sighed and mouthed thank you as she left the kitchen and walked into the living room. Prue and Piper finished cleaning the kitchen, trying not to eavesdrop but they did hear, "Cole that's just too damn bad… well that seems more like a you problem.. don't…"

Prue sat at the kitchen table with Piper, "You see it too now, don't you? You think it's her."

Piper rubbed her eyes but nodded, "I do, but what if it's not… she's such a nice girl but do we have her stay with us? Do we help raise her as a sister? Do you adopt her and raise her as her mother? I just have so many questions."

Prue took Piper's hand, "I know, I do too. But I just… I know and I don't want her ever gong back into the system, she's such a sweet girl and I…"

They quickly ended their conversation when they heard Phoebe end her call and head back towards the kitchen.

Phoebe blushed slightly and apologized again, "Sorry."

Prue smiled, "It's ok. Friend of yours?"

Phoebe rolled her eyes, "Kinda, we are, were, kinda dating but not really."

Piper's eyebrows rose, "So kinda boyfriend? Do tell."

Phoebe laughed. It was the first time she'd heard her laugh and she got chills; Phoebe's laugh was the same, bellied and genuine.

Prue pat the seat next to her smiling, "Come on! I know we all just met but what better way to get to know each other than girl talk?"

Phoebe sat down and began to explain her relationship with Cole, "Well we met at a bus stop of all places. I was going to see a friend and he was just hitch hiking and bussing it cross country. He made some stupid joke about how he's half demon and it's my job to extinguish him and have him at my mercy. It was so stupid but it made me laugh and he was nice. We ended up on that bus for like 15 hours just talking."

Piper smiled and Phoebe continued, "When we got to San Fran we exchanged numbers. We kept in contact but nothing really more. Like 4 months ago me and a foster sibling got caught in some trouble and needed some help, turns out Cole was there and he saw me. He helped us. Long story short after that we basically saw each other everyday. But soon I got placed at a different foster home, and I was taking care of my foster brother, I just I couldn't balance school, my brother, and Cole; so I told him we needed a break. Cole got mad and stormed off, got into it with some people and now he's running. He wanted me to come, but my life has enough drama, I don't need his too."

Prue internally growled at the thought of Phoebe running off with some guy.

Piper smiled, "You should write a book."

Phoebe laughed, "probably.

Phoebe then looked at Piper, "Alright well I shared, what about you. Anything to dish?"

Piper blushed, "No, not really. Me and Dan have been dating for like 8 months. He's really sweet."

Prue smirked, "Oh yeah, and what about that other nice boy Leo?"

Piper rolled her eyes are Prue, "Leo, he's a nice guy I WORK with. He's the bartender some nights. He's polite and makes silly jokes. But we are just friends."

Prue smirked at Phoebe and mouthed 'just friends'. Phoebe laughed while Piper reached across the table and smacked Prue's arm.

The sisters spent the rest of the night talking, it was the best night any of the girls had had in a while.
