Part 7
Phoebe was met by silence
'well do you?'
Again, silence.
'You have some nerve coming
here.' Phoebe shouted at them as she understood that they didn't
'Look Phoebe, we don't have a
clue what we have done, can we just talk.' Piper asked pleadingly
'work this out' Prue added
'no, you know what, I wish
you were never my sisters. That way I wouldn't get hurt.' Phoebe grabbed the
door and slammed it in their faces.
'Phoebe please' Piper shouted
through the door
'Go away Piper, I don't want
to talk to either of you ever again. Now go' Phoebe shouted with tears coming
down her face.
Piper and Prue complied with
Phoebe and left.
Joshua came home at one
o'clock exactly and saw that Phoebe's looked upset.
'Phoebe, what's the matter?'
He asked as he sat down next to her.
'Oh nothing much, except my
sisters came over'
'And'
'And they came to apologise
but they didn't know what they had done'
'You mean they still haven't
realised your birthday was nearly a week ago?'
'Yep that's it' Phoebe said
as more tears came down her face
'Oh Phoebe don't cry. Please'
he gently wiped her tears away.
'Joshua, can I ask you a
question'
'Sure, go ahead'
'Would you mind if I kissed
you?'
Joshua hesitated in answering
'no not at all, I was actually going to ask you the same question but I thought
I would be taking advantage of you'
'Why do you say that?'
'Because Phoebe, you are
vulnerable at the moment and it wouldn't be fair but since you asked that's
different'
Phoebe understood what he was
saying and lent in to kiss him. Josh returned the kiss.
'Prue, what have we done?'
'I do not know Piper. I don't
really have a clue'
Just then, the phone rang
interrupting there conversation.
'I'll get it' Piper said as
she ran to the phone.
'Hello, Piper Halliwell
speaking'
'Hello, Miss Halliwell. This
is Dr. Reynolds'
'Oh hello Dr. Reynolds how
may I help you?'
'I am just calling as you
missed your appointment on the 2nd November, and I am wondering if
you would like to rearrange it.'
'Sorry about that, I have
been extremely busy with the club and everything. I must have forgotten. Have
you got any appointments free in a fortnight?'
'Yes, we have 2 free, one on
the 19th and another one on the 23rd both at 2:30pm'
'I'll take the one on the 23rd
please.'
'Yeah sure, just make sure
you turn up' the doctor replied
'I will thanks. Bye'
'Good day miss Halliwell'
Piper put the phone down and
went back into the kitchen.
'Hi Prue'
'Hey, who was that?' Prue
asked
'Just the Doctor saying I
missed an appointment last Wednesday'
'Oh you rearrange it'
Piper walked up to the
calendar on the notice board 'Yeah I did for the 23rd, I just going
write it'
But she was cut off as she
saw something, which caught her attention.

Part 8
'what? What is it Piper' Prue asked concerned as she saw
tears start to fall down her face.
'I… I know why Phoebe is mad at us'
'Why?'
'What happens on the 2nd of November every
year?'
' I don't know what?' Prue asked still not catching on
'Think about it Prue, what always happens on the 2nd
of November. It's the same for what happens to me on the 7th August'
'Your birthday' Prue replied. Then she got it 'oh no! I
can't believe we forgot her birthday'
'well believe it cause we did' Piper replies as more
tears came down her cheeks.
'What are we going to do to make it up to her' Prue asked
'What say we go and bring her home first'
'That is, if she wants to!'
'Are you sure about this Phoebe' Josh asked as Phoebe
started to unbutton his shirt
'as I'll ever be'
'okay' Josh kissed Phoebe signalling that as long as she
was okay with it he would be too.
Phoebe had stripped Joshua down to his boxers. He was
just starting to unbutton Phoebe trousers as he had with her top when there was
a knock at the door
'leave it, whoever it is will go when no one answers'
'Okay' josh replied as he continued the task at hand
while kissing Phoebe
But the knocking persisted.
'I'll have to get that, oh the neighbours will be
complaining'
'Do you have to'
'yes Phoebe, I will be right back I promise'
'You'd better be'
Joshua walked out of his room to answer the door.
He was shocked to see two women there. But as he looked
closely he could tell that they resembled Phoebe, so must be her sisters.
'how may I help you?'
'emm.. please may we talk to Phoebe' Prue was actually
quite shocked at Josh's appearance 'Looks like Phoebe's found another handsome
and muscular bloke' she thought
'I don't know whether she wants to talk to you'
'Please just tell her we are here. And we want to tell
her something'
'okay, but I'm not promising that she'll come' Josh
replied as he let the sisters in and went to get Phoebe.
Prue and Piper were shocked when they walked in to see
how big his apartment was.
'Phoebe love, there's two people to see you'
'well tell them I don't want to see them' phoebe replied
as she knew who the two people were.
'they say it's important.'
'okay' Phoebe stood up and went out to talk to her
sisters without putting a gown on or anything to cover her.
'What do you two want' Phoebe asked coldly
Prue and piper were shocked when they saw their sister
semi-naked
'don't look to shocked. I'm a grown woman now. I'll ask
my question one more time. What do you want?'
'we came to apologise for forgetting your birthday. And
ask if you would please come home' Piper told quietly but loud enough for
phoebe to hear
'you think an apology will make me forgive you. If you do
then I'm sorry to say you're not forgiven. And I'll come home in my own time'
'Please Phoebe. We are truly sorry. We truly are' Prue
pleaded.
'No, you know what Prue. I might forget to buy you a
birthday card every time it's your birthday but at least I acknowledge it is
and say happy birthday to you. It's nearly a whole week since my birthday. A
week tomorrow to be precise and your only acknowledging it now' Phoebe shouted.
'Phoebe we are so sorry, please believe us. We never
wanted to hurt you. But we were both to wrapped up in our work to realise the
date that came and went. We're sorry.' Piper said softly as tears slid down her
cheeks
'Look, I know your sorry but it hurts here' Phoebe
pointed to her heart 'and I don't know if I am ready to forgive you yet. Please
may you just go' Phoebe started walking towards the door, her sisters following
her.
'look Phoebe there's also another reason we came here. It
concerns P3' Prue said quietly
'what's happened to the club now?'
'not the club Pheebs the other P3' Piper told
'oh, look I'll come to talk in the morning okay. But only
to talk about that nothing else.' Phoebe replied as she opened the door, which
her sisters walked through 'now if you excuse me I was busy' with that, she
shut the door in their faces.
You want me to continue??????
Part 9
Piper and Prue woke up the next morning with exceptional
amount of guilt.
'Hi Prue, morning'
'Morning Piper, you want a coffee'
'Yeah, but I'll make it myself' Piper went over to the
kettle and poured herself a cup.
'Look, I've been thinking. What you say we throw Phoebe a
surprise party at P3 tonight'
'That's a good idea, but how are we going to pull that
off in 10hours.'
'Well, I'll get all the food ready, and you Prue will
ring her friends ok?'
'but she's coming later'
'well then you better hurry'
Joshua woke up that morning to find that the space next
to him where Phoebe slept was empty.
'Phoebe' he looked around in confusion as he sat up
'Phoebe'
Josh stood up and put his bath robe on and went to look
around the apartment for her.
'Phoebe' he called as he walked out of the bedroom into
the dinning room 'Phoebe'
no answer he carried on into the lounge. As he walked in
he saw Phoebe asleep by the window, he walked up to her and gently shook her
awake 'Phoebe'
'hmm'
'come on Phoebe, you got to get up'
'but I don't want to' Phoebe said half asleep now
'you need to you have to sort out the problem with your
sisters today'
'oh god, do I really have to' Phoebe replied scrunching
her face up
'yes you do, now come on' Josh lifted her up and carried
her into the bedroom 'but I guess I can let you slep a little longer while I go
and make breakfast. But as soon as it's made you've got to get up. Okay'
'okay'
'promise?' he asked as he placed her down on the bed
'I promise. But first' Phoebe pulled josh down on top off
her as soon as she felt the bed beneath her. and kissed him passionately. But
Josh pulled away
'what, what's the matter' Phoebe asked confused 'you
don't think last night was a mistake do you?'
'no of course not. I just wanted to look at you'
'why'
'because you are beautiful Phoebe Halliwell' Josh replied
as he lend in to kiss her.
Phoebe once again pulled Josh on top of her and within
minutes they were hot and sweaty like the night before.
'Piper, I'm just going to ring Phoebe up to ask what time
she will be making a appearance' Prue shouted to her sister who was in the
kitchen preparing sandwiches for their lunch.
'No need, Phoebe is here' came a reply from the front
door.
Prue knew that voice 'Phoebe, glad you could make it'
'well you said it was a P3 problem' Phoebe replied coldly
'Yeah I did, but you don't need to talk in code now.'
'yeah I do, cause Josh is coming up the driveway'
'WHAT!' Prue shouted as josh came to the door and gave
Phoebe a kiss on the cheek
'Prue meet my boyfriend, Josh, Josh meet my oldest sister
Prue' Phoebe introduced them but added extra spite on the word sister.
'nice to meet you.' Josh held out his hand and Prue shook
it
'Likewise. So how long have you two known each other'
Prue asked
'for a week, I saw her wondering the streets in the rain,
and just asked what the matter was. We got to know each other from there'
'oh right' Prue replied quietly as she knew that was the
day after Phoebe's birthday, when they had had the confrontation. 'ill just go
and get Piper, be back in a minute'
'Piper, Phoebe is here' Prue told her sister
'really, I just thought she wouldn't be coming after you
know'
'well she's not here by her self'
'she's not' Piper asked shocked
'No, she brought that man, Josh, who happens to be her
boyfriend'
'really'
'yep, look lets go and explain the problem'
'but what about Josh'
'I don't know yet'
Prue and Piper headed towards the lounge where they had
left Phoebe and Josh. When they got there they were no where in site.
'I thought you said she was here Prue'
'she was Piper. Phoebe. Phoebe. Where are you?'
where has Phoebe gone? Has Josh done something to her? or
was Prue imagining it?
