Destiny Took Its Toll
Ch. 9 The Second Generation
With everything that was going on with the Charmed Ones, Sciton Corporation, the Gorgons and Skythorne's, Wyatt Matthew Halliwell didn't have much time to think. He was now the father of the Charmed Ones, but he felt like he hadn't been paying much attention to them. He thought that as the father of the Charmed Ones, he should be there for them. The Twice Blessed Witch was happy that his cousins were helping the boys out, but he still wanted to be there for them. Wyatt had been packing up his work stuff when Kira came down to the dining room. "Whatcha doing?" Wyatt looked at his wife and smiled softly. Whenever he saw her, his heart always skipped a beat. It always has ever since his Senior year of High School. When Wyatt was around five years old, the Halliwell sisters got word that Kira, the demonic seer, had been resurrected by the new Elders. When they asked Them about it, Sardin explained that They went over Kira's case and decided as a whole to resurrect her, with a small price. Kira was to still have her demonic abilities.
They didn't think it was fair that Kira had kept her word to the old Elders, so as a majority, They brought her back. Wyatt, with his siblings, grew up and soon they had met Kira who was living with her family. When Wyatt entered Senior year, that was when they started to date. "Hm, just packing up some work stuff. I'm taking a vacation." Kira looked at her husband, taken completely by surprise. He had always loved his job, and it helped him balance his "normal" life with his Witch life. "Vacation, huh?" She walked up to her husband and put her arms around her, "For how long?" Wyatt was smiling now. He told her that he was off of work for however long he decided. Kira started feeling proud of her husband. It was going to be very interesting to see how he coped being home all the time. "Plus I think it'll help me with my relationship with Tyler." Kira softly smiled at her husband, and told him Tyler still loved him. "You're his father, he's suppose to love you. So you guys get into fights... a lot... but you're still his father, and he's still your son." Wyatt gave Kira a long, sensual kiss. "Hmm, you're right." Kira chuckled saying that she was always right, and will always be right.
Wyatt picked up his stuff, and placed his laptop bag over his shoulder. "Now all I gotta do is store this stuff in my closet." He gave Kira another kiss before going upstairs to put his stuff away. Kira had a huge smile on her face. She was very proud of her husband right now, and began to think of doing something nice for him. Like maybe cook a dinner and a very sweet desert. Kira now was sporting a little smirk on her face. "Oh yeah, that's a great idea." She hurried into the kitchen to get the stuff she needed, and of course she was totally going to call Piper to help her out with cooking some food.
Wyatt got to his room and opened the door. When he was in his room, he took the bag from his shoulder and placed it on the floor. He opened his closet and started putting his work stuff in the back, when he spotted a book. He took it and opened it, revealing that it was a photo album. Walking to his bed, Wyatt sat down and started looking through it. The first set of pictures were of him, Chris, and Melinda when they were younger.
He and his siblings had a very strong bond growing up. He remembered he and Melinda always got into fights and Chris would be the mediator always breaking them up and always being the third vote if Wyatt and Melinda disagreed with something. As he got further in the album, he looked at more pictures of he and his siblings, him and Kira when they first met, and than he eventually got to pictures of him and his friend Derek Morrison. Wyatt remembered all the times he and Derek hung out together, causing trouble with their families, and they always got into major type of trouble for throwing parties and such. It was actually Derek who had gotten Wyatt and Kira together. When the two got married, he had both his brother and Derek be his best men. He didn't think it was fair to choose between the two, so he went with both.
After Wyatt and Kira got married, they were very happy with each other and loved each other very much. Although there was that very bad time in his life when he and Kira had actually got separated. Wyatt started thinking about why the two got separated, but was interrupted when there was a knock on his door. Melinda peeked into his room and told him that their brother Chris and sister in law Bianca had come over and they were going to watch a movie. "Wanna join us? We can tease Chris and Bianca when they do marriage couple stuff." Wyatt chuckled at his sister, and agreed to the movie. "I'll be down in a minute." Melinda smiled and shut the door. Wyatt's thoughts went back to why he and Kira got separated, which Derek had actually had a role in that as well... Wyatt looked at the album again and closed it. He put the album in his top dresser drawer and closed it.
Wyatt remembered that he and Kira was separated for quite awhile, but then the two got back together because of some very rare circumstances, which had to do with his son, Chris' conception. Wyatt shut off the light and went into the hallway. "Wyatt, c'mon! We're ready for the movie!" Wyatt smiled when he heard Melinda call out for him. Hopefully she chose a good movie and not one of the boring ones she always seemed to watch. Wyatt walked down the stairs and hugged his brother and sister in law. "Good to see you guys." Chris and Bianca said the same and they began to watch the movie. Bianca had her arms wrapped around her husband and her head rested on his chest. "Hey Mel, where's your boy?" Melinda rolled her eyes and said he was at some weird meeting of his. Bianca said that sucked, and Melinda agreed. "I miss him..." She looked over at Wyatt, and immediately knew he was thinking about something. "So Wyatt, Kira said you were going to take some vacation time to be with your kids."
Wyatt proudly smiled and said that he was matter of factly. "That's really cool of you." Everyone offered smiles to each other and soon were engrossed with their movie. As the movie went on, Patience and Prudence had beamed in the manor, and asked if they could join their cousins and cousins-in-law. "I brought candy!" Patience showed everyone her stash she carrying in her arms and Chris asked if she had any of those hot candies. She scoffed showed him a whole box of them, and after dropping her stash on the coffee table, she tossed him a box. "Where's my favorite great cousin with the same name as my favorite cousin-cousin?" Wyatt gave Patience a mock laugh, and told her he was with his brothers, wherever that may be. "Oh, cool cool." Patience plopped down on a chair and immediately accused Mel of choosing the movie that was on. Mel, in turn, scoffed and looked away. "So? This is a very great movie thank you very much!" Everyone laughed again and started to watch the movie, sometimes throwing out random commentary about the film. It was no secret that the Second Generation was very close with each other, even with Henry Jr, Tamora, Kat, and Sarah. They always looked after each other, they always had each others backs, no matter what happened.
