Ex-Girlfriend


This takes place five months after Returning Home.  Cole couldn't leave his job for so long, so he couldn't come but the rest of the gang has come.


Georgia walked out of the house as Andy and the gang walked toward the house with their luggage. She was excited to see them. When they finally reached the house, Andy and Prue dropped their bags and gave Georgia a hug.
"Okay guys, follow me." She said opening the door for them.
The beach house was big. It was originally her grandfather's. He often let her and her friends stay their during the summer. When he died, he left it to her.
"So, do I get to share a room with you?" Cody asked.
"No, you get a room to yourself."
"It was worth a shot." Cody said.
Andy sat on the bed watching Prue unpacking their clothes. He offered to help, but she wanted to do it by herself. He didn't say anything. He just watched her with a smile on his face. She felt him staring, so she turned around.
"What are you smiling at?"
"My gorgeous girlfriend."
"Really?" She said grinning.
She walked over to him and lightly pushed him back on the bed. She climbed on top of him and passionately kissed him. He held her tightly and rolled on top of her. They were kissing until someone opened the door. When he and Prue looked up, they were instantly upset.
"Oh my God!"
Andy slowly got up off Prue and sat at the edge of the bed.
"What are you doing here?" Andy asked.
"I could ask you the same thing." Isabelle said.
"What are you doing here?" Georgia asked coming up behind Isabelle.
"My plans changed. It's a long story."
Georgia gave Andy and Prue an apologetic look.
"This is just great." Andy said angrily.
"Well, I'm leaving. I'll talk to you later Georgia."
"I'll walk you out."
When they left, Andy stood up and walked around the room.
"I can't believe this shit."
"Andy, it might not be so bad."
"What? You obviously don't know her that well."
"I don't, but it's been two years."
"That doesn't mean anything."
Prue got off the bed and walked over to him.
"Sweetie, calm down okay. We'll be fine." She said touching his face.
"I hope you're right."
"Of course I am." She said giving him a soft peck on the lips.
Just as Andy was about to kiss her again, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Prue said.
"I'm so sorry about this guys." Georgia said.
"It's not your fault." Prue said.
"I was so sure that she wouldn't be here."
"Where did she go?" Andy asked.
"She said she was going home."
"And you believed her?" Andy said.
"Look, if she gives the two of you a hard time, she'll have to deal with me."
"Are you gonna shoot her? Cause I might." Andy commented.

Later that night, While they were asleep, the phone rang. Prue fumbled with the phone and picked it up.
"Hello.....hello" She whispered into the phone.
When she didn't get an answer, she hung up and went back to sleep. An hour later, the phone rang again. This time Andy reached across Prue and answered the phone.
"Hello. Hello."
Andy hung up the phone, but didn't go right back to sleep. He had a feeling that Isabelle had called. He decided to stay up to see if she would call back. They had all had a nice day, but the sight of Isabelle made it a little difficult for him to enjoy himself. He hoped that she had finally grown up. He didn't want her causing the trouble she had caused between them two years ago.

The next morning, when Andy opened his eyes, he didn't see Prue in the bed next to him. He looked at his watched and noticed that it was 11am. He got up and walked into the living room.
"Hey sweetie."
"Sleep good?" Leo asked.
"Not really." He said going over to sit next to Prue.
"Why is that?" Cody said raising an eyebrow.
"Oh Cody, get your mind out of the gutter." Prue said.
"I just asked a question."
"So, what are we doing today?" Piper asked.
"I don't know about you, but I wanna go swimming." Phoebe said.
"Me too." Georgia said.
"I think you'd rather go on a date with Cody."
"Cody give it up." Phoebe said laughing.
"She wants me."
"Cody please." Georgia said.
"He's not used to girls turning him down." Piper said.
"Hey!"
They were all laughing when Isabelle walked in with this guy. The laughing ceased when they saw that it was her.
"Hey guys."
"Hi Isabelle." Georgia said.
"I'd like you all to meet my boyfriend James. James this is everybody."
"Hi." They said.
She looked over at Andy to see his reaction. He was unfazed by her appearance with James, so she put her arm around him.
"So, what are you two doing today?" Georgia asked.
"I don't know. What are we doing today James?"
"Something romantic." He said gazing at her.
Piper looked at Andy and then back at Isabelle. She understood why Andy couldn't stand her. It was like she was trying to make him jealous. She had just met Isabelle, but she already didn't like her. She seemed like such a snake.
"Well, I'm going to get dressed." Piper said getting up.
"Yeah, me too." Phoebe said.
When Phoebe, Leo and Piper got up and went to their rooms, Isabelle and James sat next to Andy and Prue. Andy instantly became angry, but hid it. Georgia looked at them with an uncomfortable expression on her face.
"Come on Prue." Andy said grabbing her by the hand.
"We'll see you guys later." Prue said.
"All right." Isabelle said.
Andy glared at her and they went to their room.

"Did you see that?" Piper asked Phoebe.
"See what?"
"How Isabelle was trying to make Andy jealous."
"Oh yeah."
"I can't stand women like that."
"Could she have Been more obvious? She saw that Andy didn't care about her having a boyfriend, so she put her arm around him and looked at Andy like he was supposed to cry or something." Phoebe said.
"I know!"
"We're gonna have to keep an eye on her." Piper said.
"Yeah, she obviously wants to break them up."
"We won't let her." Piper said.

A few days later while Andy and Prue were walking along the beach, he noticed a note on his car.
"What the hell?" He said walking toward the car.
The note was taped to his car. He took it off, unfolded it and then read it aloud.

Hi Andy, I just wanted to tell you want a great time I had with you the other day. You're such a great person to be around. It's too bad you have a girlfriend, but I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.
Bye Lover


"I knew that I shouldn't have come here." Andy said bawling up the note.
"Wait, don't ball it up."
"Why not?"
"Come on." She said walking back in the direction of the beach house.
Andy and Prue walked in and saw Isabelle, Georgia, and James, sitting on the couch watching TV. Prue walked over to Isabelle and threw the note at her.
"What is this?" She asked.
"You tell me." Prue said angrily.
Isabelle read the note and looked at them innocently.
"I didn't write this. Maybe some other woman wrote this."
"Don't give me that." Andy said.
"I'll handle this Andy. Isabelle, I've been nice about this, but I want you to get this straight. Andy is my boyfriend now. We're together and will stay together. If you think I'm gonna let you or this note come between me and Andy, you're dumber than I thought. I'm not letting him go, so give it up." Prue said storming into her and Andy's room.
"Isabelle, I think you should go now." Georgia said angrily.
"I didn't write that letter. If he's cheating on her, it's with some other woman, not me."
"Isabelle, I don't want you. Can you please just leave me and Prue alone?"
"What's going on?" Phoebe asked coming in with Piper.
"Isabelle's being a bitch as usual." Andy said.
"Don't talk to my girlfriend like that." James said.
"You and your girlfriend can go to hell." Andy said.
He left the living room and went into his and Prue's room. Georgia went over to the door and held it open for them to leave. Phoebe and Piper glared at her as she and James walked past them to leave. When they stepped out, Georgia slammed the door behind them.
"What was that all about?" Piper asked.
"She wrote a note to Andy and put it on his car to make it seem like he's cheating on Prue. Of course she's denying it though."
"What's wrong with her?" Phoebe asked.
"I don't know." Georgia said shaking her head.

"My Mom said that she called her?" Andy asked.
"Yeah. Your Mom called this morning. I didn't tell you because we had a nice couple of days without her and I didn't want to get you all upset." Prue said holding his hand.
"We should just leave."
"Andy, I'm not letting someone like that run us away from here. We came down here for vacation and to see your friends."
"I know. I'm just so pissed."
Prue caressed his face with the back of her hand to calm him down. After a few minutes, he wasn't upset anymore.
"You do believe that I'm not cheating on you right?"
"Of course I believe you."
He was worried that she would stop trusting him. They had found another letter on his car implying that he was cheating the morning after they had arrived, but didn't mention it to anyone.
"Promise me that we won't let whatever she does break us up." Andy said sincerely.
"I promise."

A week later, while Phoebe, Piper, Leo, and Georgia were sitting on their blankets on the beach in the sand, Isabelle walked over to them.
"Hey guys. How's it going?"
"It was going good until you got here." Phoebe said.
"I take it you guys don't like me very much." Isabelle said.
"That's an understatement." Leo commented.
"I'm not the one doing the stuff Andy's accusing me of."
"Oh please. They've never had stuff like this happen to them until they got here, and as I recall, when they were here two years ago, you were causing trouble." Piper said.
"That was two years ago."
"And yet it's happening again. Coincidence, I think not." Phoebe said.
Just as Piper was about to say something else, Elliot walked up the beach and stood behind Isabelle.
"Hey Elliot." Georgia said.
"Hey. Who are these pretty ladies?" Elliot asked grinning.
"These are friends of Andy's from San Francisco. This is Phoebe, Piper, and Leo."
"Hi, nice to meet you guys."
"You too." Piper said.
"Where's Andy and Prue?"
"Oh, they went to the mall."
"Man, I still can't believe Andy managed to stay in a relationship this long. As long as I've know him, I've never seen him with anybody for more than a minute. I can tell he really loves her."
"He does." Piper said looking at Isabelle.
Elliot saw the look Piper gave her.
"You cause any trouble yet?" Elliot asked Isabelle.
"No, I haven't."
"Yeah right." He said.
Cody approached them with a radio in his hand. He sat it down on the blanket next to Georgia and turned it on. Once he found the station he wanted, he laid back and put his hands behind his head.
"And this is Cody." Georgia said.
"Hi." Cody said grinning.
"You two have a lot in common." Georgia said.
"Yeah. Cody loves women. A whole lot of women." Phoebe said.
"Cool, we should hang out." Elliot said.
"Sounds like a plan."
"This next song is dedicated to Isabelle from Andy and Prue. It's called Ex-Girlfriend, by Mariah Carey." The DJ announced.
Cody turned the song up a little and smiled.

Ex-Girlfriend you can't have him
It's about time
That you found you a new man
He's moved on
Don't you know, don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go
Ex-girlfriend you don't listen
Stop trying
He's not gonna give in
He's not yours anymore
Don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go

Hey ex-girlfriend
It's too bad when you had him
Y'all thing didn't work
But he's all mine now
So stop pursuing him
Before you get your feelings hurt
See our love is hot
And no, it won't stop
'Cause I got him on lock
And although he rejects you
It don't seem to affect you
'Cause you just keep trying
To get wit him

So don't, don't keep, keep calling
Hanging up the phone
When I answer I know it
Tears you up inside and
Why do you sit in silence
On the other end
'Till I hang up and you
Predictably call right back again

Ex-Girlfriend you can't have him
It's about time
That you found you a new man
He's moved on
Don't you know, don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go
Ex-girlfriend you don't listen
Stop trying
He's not gonna give in
He's not yours anymore
Don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go

Hey ex-girlfriend
Whatever your name is
I'm really not amused
'Cause the things you do
Are very offensive
And sometimes straight up rude
All those late night calls and notes
On his car
Won't get you anywhere
You can call his mom
As much as you want
And he won't really care

So don't, don't keep, keep calling
Hanging up the phone
When I answer I know it
Tears you up inside and
Why do you sit in silence
On the other end
'Til I hang up and you
Predictably call right back again

Ex-Girlfriend you can't have him
It's about time
That you found you a new man
He's moved on
Don't you know, don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go
Ex-girlfriend you don't listen
Stop trying
He's not gonna give in
He's not yours anymore
Don't you know
You gotta let him go
Let him go, let him go

I understand why
You want him back
But don't you know
Our love's too strong
For you to penetrate
It's too late
He's not your baby no more

When the song ended, they all looked at Isabelle with smiles on their faces, especially Cody. Andy and Prue had called while he was still in the house. Prue told him that she wanted Isabelle to hear the song, so she called the radio station for them to play it. At first Prue asked who was on the beach with them, and when Cody informed her that Isabelle was there, she came up with the idea.
"Well, it looks like I'm not wanted here, so I'll be going."
She turned around and walked down the beach. The gang laughed as she walked off. She heard the laughter behind her, and vowed to herself that Andy and Prue wouldn't be happy for long. They had embarrassed her and she was furious. As she walked down the beach, a plan formulated in her mind. It's perfect, she thought to herself. When she thought of what to do next, a smile spread across her face, replacing the hurt and angry expression that was obvious only minutes ago. She had noticed that Andy was going out a lot more without Prue. Sure he had Cody or Leo with him, but she knew that she could use that to her advantage. Isabelle knew that Andy wasn't cheating on Prue, but she was sure gonna make her believe so.

A week later, while Prue was sitting on the beach by herself, James walked over to her and sat beside her.
"Hi." He said to Prue.
"Can I help you?" Prue said a little angrily.
"I don't blame you for not liking me. But I haven't done anything."
"Well, your girlfriend certainly has."
"I know. That's why we're not together anymore."
"You broke up with her?"
"Yeah. I just couldn't take it anymore. She doesn't know when to let go."
"I'm sorry."
"It's all right. I'm sorry she's putting you and Andy through this."
"It's not your fault."
"Where is Andy anyway? I wanted to apologize to him."
"I don't know. Him and Georgia went somewhere."
"For how long?"
"They left before I woke up this morning."
"Oh. Well, I guess I'll see him later." He said getting up.
"Okay." Prue said preoccupied.
She hadn't even noticed that James walked away until minutes later. She had never been suspicious of Andy's friendship with Georgia until now. Talking to James had made her think about how much time Andy and Georgia had been spending together. She felt silly, because Georgia had helped them out in their relationship, and was a really nice person, but they were going places without even telling her about it. It was like they were sneaking out together. She trusted them, but something wasn't right.

Prue was taking a nap when Andy entered the room. He looked over at her and smiled. She was asleep when he had left earlier. He walked over her and sat on the edge of the bed. He took her by the hand and kissed her lips. After a couple kisses, she finally opened her eyes.
"Hey, sweetie." She said.
"Hey. I missed you."
"I missed you too. Where did you go?"
"Oh, me and Georgia went to visit her Dad in Orlando."
"Why didn't you wake me or leave a note to tell me where you were going?"
"I'm sorry." He said leaning in to kiss her.

The next day, Prue walked through the hall and heard whispering. When she entered the living room Andy and Georgia stopped talking.
"Hey Prue." Georgia said.
"Hey." Prue said feeling weird.
"You all right Prue?" Andy asked.
"Yeah, I'm just trying to wake up."
"Well, I'm going to start breakfast." Georgia said getting up and going into the kitchen.
"Prue, are you sure you're okay?" Andy asked again.
"Yeah. Are Piper and Phoebe up yet?"
"I don't know."
"I'll be back."
Prue turned around and headed in the direction of Phoebe's room. Andy watched her walk down the hall, wondering what was really wrong with her. He felt that she was hiding something from him. He wondered if she was angry with him for the stuff that Isabelle was doing.

Prue entered Phoebe's room. Piper was there waiting for Phoebe to wake up.
"Hey Prue. Do I smell food?"
"Yeah, Georgia's cooking breakfast."
"What's wrong with you?"
"I don't know. I just get the feeling that maybe Andy and Georgia like each other."
"Well duh, she's one of his best friends."
"No, that's not what I mean. I think that they have feelings for each other."
"Who told you that?" Piper asked with her face frowned up."
"Nobody. It's just a weird feeling I have. They've been spending a lot of time together, alone, and yesterday they went off all day. He didn't wake me or leave a note telling where he was going. He didn't even call. That's not like him."
"Prue, you have nothing to worry about."
"What makes you so sure?"
"Well...um....I don't know." Piper said.
"What's going on?" Phoebe asked rubbing her eyes.
"Prue's being ridiculous."
"What?"
"She thinks that Andy and Georgia have feeling for each other."
"Prue, they're friends. You've never gotten like this before about the two of them." Phoebe said getting out of bed.
"I know. I hate feeling like this."
"Prue, really, I don't think you have anything to worry about." Piper said.
"I hope you're right."

The whole time they sat at the kitchen table eating breakfast, Prue was quiet. Andy and Georgia exchanged worried looks, but didn't say anything. She only ate a portion of her food and gave the rest to Cody, who happily accepted. She got up from the table without a word, and went back to her and Andy's room. Andy got up from the table and followed her.
"Prue, I know something's wrong. Can you please tell me what it is?"
"Andy, I'm just a little tired that's all."
"Okay. I'll let you be alone. We're all going out later, you coming?"
"No."
"Okay. I love you." He said closing the door.
She sat there on the bed with her face buried in her hands. She hated having to lie to Andy about how she was feeling, but she didn't want him to think that she didn't trust him. She just wanted everyone to leave so that she could be alone with her thoughts.

Later that evening while she was sitting in the living room watching TV, James came over. She sat and talked to him about how she was feeling.
"I've actually thought that they might be seeing each other, but I didn't want to say anything."
"I mean, I know it's not impossible, but, It's still a little hard to believe. It doesn't make any sense to me."
As Andy approached the house, he saw Prue laying her head on James's shoulder, with his arm around her. He was instantly hurt. It was obvious that she was confiding in him. He had left everybody at the club they were at, to be home with Prue. He stood there waiting to see if anything would happen, but it didn't. He didn't know whether to go in and confront them or turn around and leave. Minutes later, Andy got in his car and drove off. He didn't want to believe that Prue was interested in James, but her crying on his shoulder led him to believe that she was angry with him and wanted comfort in the arms of another. He couldn't understand it.

The next day, Prue watched as Andy dressed. She wondered why he was saying anything to her. She was now ready to tell him about her suspicions. She figured that the reason for his silence, was because she wasn't acting like herself. She couldn't stand the silence anymore.
"Andy, I need to talk to you."
When he walked over to her to hear her out, there was a knock on the door. Andy opened the door. It was Georgia.
"Hey."
"Hey Andy, hey Prue. Andy can I talk to you for a minute?"
"All right. Prue, I'll be back." Andy said closing the door.

Twenty minutes later, Prue was still waiting for Andy to return to the room. When she got tired of waiting, she went into the living room. No one was there. She walked to Georgia's room and listened at the door. She heard laughter, and whispering. She wanted to open the door and question them about what's been going on, but instead she returned to their room.
When Andy returned to the room, he found a note on the bed from Prue. As he unfolded the note, he began to tremble. He knew this was bad.

Andy,
Things haven't been going that well between us since we arrived here. I don't know what's going on, but I don't like it. I've decided to leave here to clear my head. I can't stay here another minute. Don't worry, I'm not breaking up with you. I said I wouldn't. I know that we need to talk about things, but right now I can't. I was just about to tell you what's been bothering me, but instead, you went to talk with Georgia. I'm really confused about some things and I feel that I owe it to us to think things through. I'm almost ashamed to tell you what's been going on inside my head, but I know that I'll have to tell you eventually. I've noticed that you were a little angry today. I'm not sure if you're mad at me, but I would also like to know what's bothering you. I shouldn't be gone long and I'll call to let you know I'm okay.
Love Prue


Andy sat on the bed with tears in his eyes. His head was hung low when Elliot walked into the room.
"Andy, what's wrong?"
Andy couldn't say anything, so he handed him the note. When Elliot finished reading it he just looked at him.
"What does she mean by all this?"
"I don't know, but I saw her laying on James's shoulder last night."
"Andy, you don't think.....
"I don't know what to think. It sounds to me like she might like James."
"Andy, you two have been together for two years."
"I can't believe this."
"Andy, don't you trust her?"
"Yeah, but this doesn't make any sense."
"That's why you two have to talk."

That night, Andy got a call from Prue.
"Prue, where are you?"
"I'm at a hotel."
"What hotel?"
"I just called to let you know that I'm okay."
"Prue, what's going on?"
"I love you. Bye Andy."
"Prue wait......
Andy sat in his room with the phone in his hand. He didn't understand how things could go bad so fast. It reminded him of two years ago when they were in Florida. They were just getting to know each other and Isabelle did her best to make sure that wouldn't happen. He was furious with her. All the bad events that had taken place, had Isabelle written all over it. Just as he was hanging up the phone, Isabelle walked in looking angry.
"What the hell are you doing in here?" Andy said angrily.
"Y'know all this time Prue thought that I was after you, and it turns out that she was after James."
"What?" Andy said jumping to his feet.
"I know we broke up and everything, but I think she's the reason."
"What are you talking about?"
"They're at a hotel together."
Andy felt his heart drop. Part of him didn't believe it, but the other part wasn't so sure. He suddenly felt to weak to stand, so he sat back down on the bed. He wasn't sure he could handle all this. He was too devastated to ask which hotel they might be staying at. He had forgotten that Isabelle was standing in front of him. There were a million thoughts swirling around in his head. Could this all be true? He thought.
