AN: Ok thanks for ur comments and sorry KT I should have said. Nearly all my fics
are a series. MorningStar, No One Listens, Maybe Memories, Mixed Emotions and
then Shadow. I dunno if I like this. Think its pretty crappy. Next part will probably
be the last.
Part 2
And we've been here for so many years
Still it seems as if you're not there
Everytime I talk, you turn away
Isn't dad an obligation to care?
And we've been here, for so many years
So many years still it seems...so complicated
Overrated
Complicated...well this feeling is love
Piper closed the manor door and turned to Phoebe, "ok, that was weird. I think dad was kinda hurt."
"Well, Prue did draw him a dirty look then leave. I can't really blame Paige for going but Prue is over
all that dad stuff!" Phoebe said as they walked towards the stairs.
Piper sighed, "let's go see what she has to say." She took Phoebe's hand and led her up to the attic.

Prue sat with her head resting on Paige's shoulder. She wouldn't have been like this 5 years ago. She
would be making work for herself and locking everything up. But once she started to share her true
feelings and thoughts with her sisters, she found it impossible to stop.
Paige was gently stroking Prue's hair. She had got Prue calmed down and now wanted her to talk.
"You ok, sweetie?"
She felt Prue nod, "yeah." She paused, "I just..."
Prue was cut off by Piper and Phoebe barging in the room. Prue sat up straight trying to avoid their
questioning eyes.
"What the hell was that all about, Prue?" Phoebe asked, pissed off at the way Prue behaved.
"Back off, Phoebe" Paige warned. She was surprised, it came out without her thinking. She saw the
anger about to boil in Phoebe so she stood up and led Piper and Phoebe out to the stairs. "I'm sorry
for snapping at you but she's upset."
"You saw the way she acted with our Dad, Paige. I think we should be the ones talking to her."
Phoebe argued.
Paige was hurt by Phoebe's comment. Just because she had a different dad, didn't mean she couldn't
talk to them about father stuff. "You really think she's going to talk to you?? She won't because she
cares too much about how you feel about him. Maybe you should trust me for once and let me help
her instead of barging in their shouting at her!"
Piper stepped in to play mediator. A role she missed but seemed to her place again. "Phoebe, go
downstairs and put the kettle on. I'll be down in a minute."
Phoebe glared at Paige then went downstairs as Piper had told her.
Piper laid her hand on Paige's arm, "you're a good sister, Paige." She smiled at her then walked
downstairs.
Paige took a moment then walked back into the attic. Prue hadn't moved, she still sat on the sofa,
her eyes glued to her hands.
Paige sat down next to her again, "Sometimes three sister's is just too much huh?"
Prue couldn't help the small smile that crept on her face, "It can be when you don't agree, otherwise
I wouldn't trade it for anything."
Paige smiled as she tucked a piece of hair behind Prue's ear, "you know Phoebe, she won't be mad in
an hour."
"Thanks for sticking up for me. I just can't make them see through him. They don't know him like I
do."
"Why not?" Paige asked, intrigued.
"Because they weren't old enough to remember. They don't know what he was like. How he treated
mum, how he treated us." she said trying to swallow the lump in her throat.
"Did they brake up because of my dad?" She asked, scared of the answer.
"Not really. Mum had the affair with Sam and then Victor moved out for good but it had been a long
time coming. Sam was a good man, they loved each other. I think Mum and Victor fell out of love
after he found out what we were."
"What did he do to treat you so badly?"
"They used to argue and shout all the time. Victor would always put mum down, I used to hear it
and watch it but they never saw me. When he found out about Sam he went crazy. He threatened
her, I thought he was going to hit her or worse so I picekd up a baseball bat that belonged to one of
Grams' husbands and I hit him with it until mum took me away and the next day he was gone."
Paige's heart went out to her eldest sister, to go through that at such a young age must have hurt
her so much. She took Prue's hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.
"He used to come to the manor when he was drunk and kick the door down and shout at mum and
grams. Piper and Phoebe don't remember. I think if anything they blocked it out. Then he just
disappeared and we didn't see him for another 20 or some years." She said as she wiped away a few
stray tears.
"That must have been hard on you growing up." Paige asked more than stated.
Prue nodded, "I guess, I've just left it inside, all the anger I feel towards him. I could never talk to
Piper or Phoebe about it."
"You've got me. I'll always listen."
Prue looked at Paige, "Thank you baby sis." She pulled Paige in and hugged her.
Their hug seemed to just go on and on as Prue laid her on Paige's shoulder, no intension of breaking
away.
"I don't know how to go down and face them. What if they try and find out why I'm suddenly acting
like I did before."
"Honey, what do you mean like you did before?" Paige asked
"He came back 5 years ago and he used us, then left again. Then 2 years ago he came back again
but this time he almost got Phoebe killed but he saved me. I forgave him, I thought he had changed,
Paige, I really did but he just abandoned them again!" Prue said becoming upset again.
Paige realised something, he had hurt Prue, he hurt her a lot but what hurt her most was how he
treated her sisters and her mum. She rubbed Prue's back.
"I'll get you out of any talks with them. And next time he comes here, you have a free orb to
wherever you want, ok?"
Prue sniffed and nodded. She felt special that Paige had said that. "Thanks you." She whispered.
"No, thank you's. I'm your sister."
"I love you."
"Love you too, Prue."
