A/N: Yes, I'm still on the Chris being unglamoured and how he and his family react.

Chapter 10

Piper was satisfied her son agreed and understood what they wanted. Phoebe and Paige where both surprised that Chris had agreed so easily. Leo was also surprised, but he was worried; Chris had a look he's seen many times before, in himself as a teen ager when he'd agree to anything his father said and then turned around and found a way to do it anyway. That worried him; he was beginning to realize that although Chris resembled Piper, he was his father's son. It was eerie how it was the little insignificant things that Chris did that reminded him of himself, everything from his tone of voice, to the way he expressed himself, to the way he stood and walked. He remembered that before they knew about Chris, Paige had laughed at something Chris had said and had asked Leo if they had attended the same training session or if there was a handbook for white lighters, "because mini-Leo over here, gives the same advice that you do, and by the same I mean basically word for word". Leo had wondered about that but hadn't given much attention to it. When he'd found out about Chris, he and Piper had talked and they'd both laughed at how blind they had been. Chris looked like Piper but acted and sounded exactly like Leo. He had always wondered who it was that Chris reminded him of, he now knew who; himself.

Chris was lying in bed contemplating his new situation. He now had to report to his parents and had, had a list of rules read to him that where now posted on the fridge for all to see. He hated that list, he hated that he'd been found out and he especially hated that now he had to defy his parents especially if he was going to save Wyatt. In a way it was comforting to see his parents acting like his parents but at the same time it was upsetting. The Leo and Piper of this time weren't his parents, they only had one son here and that was Wyatt. In a few months he'd be born but he wasn't and his parents where novices when it came to dealing with a non-toddler, he was going to use it to his advantage. His parents were not going to be dictating to him, he had a job to do and nothing else mattered, saving Wyatt was more important. Besides they had no right to tell him what to do, technically he wasn't their son yet; at least that was what he kept telling himself as he fell asleep.

Piper was thinking about her baby boy as she lay in bed. He'd agreed pretty fast to what they wanted, she knew he would listen to reason. She was not about to lose him, she would keep him safe. Leo had just given her a look when she'd commented on how easy it had been.

Leo was also thinking about the way things had played out with Chris. He wasn't as convinced has Piper about Chris apparent agreement to the new situation. If the last couple of months had taught him anything, it was that Chris rarely did what others asked and was always going off half-cocked. He seriously doubted that Chris was actually going to do what they asked, sure he'd agreed but agreeing and doing where two different things. Leo was a pacifist by nature but if being in Valhalla had taught him anything it was that sometimes you had to fight with everything you had for what was yours. Leo was positive that Chris would resist and try to work around the new restrictions; he wouldn't be a teenager if he didn't, but he had to make sure Chris realized that yes he was here to save Wyatt but he had to rely on the rest of them to help him and not go of on his own anymore.

Piper was up earlier than usual, baby Chris had woken her up around 4:00am, he was apparently doing summersaults and she hadn't been able to fall asleep again. She'd brought Wyatt down when he began fussing, so here she was making breakfast for everyone and feeding a two year old. She was making Chris's favorite, blueberry pancakes; she wanted to show her son that she appreciated his efforts, because one of the rules was that he had to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner with his family.

Chris woke up as the sunlight streamed through his window. He decided that he needed his family to realize that he wasn't going to do as they asked. First thing he'd do is miss breakfast, his mom had been adamant about him eating with the family, so he figured that was a good way to start. He could smell the pancakes and almost changed his mind, but he had a statement to make. He quickly showered and changed, he then orbed out of the manor.

Leo walked into the kitchen and found Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Wyatt having breakfast; who he didn't see was Chris and he'd assumed he'd be having breakfast because he wasn't in his room, he'd checked.

"Good morning, where's Chris?" asked Leo.

"Hi, he's still sleeping" answered Piper.

"No he's not" said Leo.

"Of course he is Leo, I checked on him earlier" said Piper.

"No he's not, I just checked, I assumed he was here with you girls".

"Leo where is he? He knew he was supposed to have breakfast with us." asked Piper concerned.

"I'm sure he's still here Piper, he knew he was expected at breakfast" said Phoebe.

"Yeah Piper he's probably in the attic looking at the book of shadows you know how committed he is" said Paige trying to calm Piper down.

"He'd better be and if he is then we have a problem because he's not allowed in the attic this early in the morning, or do you think he misunderstood us?" asked Piper

"I don't see how "no being in the attic before 10:00am and after 7:00pm" be misinterpreted. Besides he knew you guys wanted him to eat with the family" said Phoebe.

"I have a issue with that, why do we also have to be hear for three square meals like Chris?" asked Paige

"Paige, it's to help Chris, but I guess you guys can show support by been hear at least for breakfast, I understand you have life's too, but maybe twice a week you could join us for dinner" said Leo.

"That sounds good, thanks."

"That is not the issue here people, the issue is my son, who is not here."

"Sorry Piper, you're right. I'll check the attic and maybe Leo should check the rest of the manor" said Paige.

"You don't need to do that Paige, I'll just sense for Chris from here" said Leo.

Piper watched as Leo concentrated, she hoped he was here because if he wasn't she didn't know how things would unfold. Her hopes plummeted when she saw Leo start to frown and shake his head.

"He's not here and he's blocking me" said Leo clearly upset.

...I like this and the way it's progressing...I hope no one is dissapointed...I know I'm making Chris a brat but hey he's sixteen and out of his time...he's going to give them trouble...I think that's why he was killed in the first place he was to careless...

...anyway tell me what you think...be honest...I can take it...thanks...
