Chapter 12
Piper jumped up and ran into Phoebe's room, afraid her something had happened to her. Paige looked up and down the hall, checking for the source of the scream. nurse came running down the hall and went into the room next to Phoebe's. Paige peeked in and saw a small child, maybe six years old lying in the hospital bed. It was obvious she's had a nightmare. Her eyes were still heavy with sleep but she was sweating and crying. The nurse gently soothed her and watched until the child fell asleep. Paige quickly moved away from the door as the nurse tiptoed out, sadness etched into her expression. Piper walked out of the room, and looked at Paige questioningly. "It was the little girl in the next room. She had a nightmare," Paige told her, thinking about the child. She heard a small voice and quickly entered through the ajar door. "Who are you?," the child asked when Paige walked in. "I'm Paige. I just wanted to see if you're ok. The nurse thought you were asleep," Paige told her, trying not to frighten the girl. The little girl nodded, with a very adult like quality. "I know. I didn't want her to watch me. I'm a big girl. I can handle bad dreams," she said in a very grown up tone. "Would you like me to leave?," Paige asked, backing away. "No, you can stay. That nurse treats me like a baby. You're nice. I'm Trielle. Can I tell you a secret?," Trielle asked conspiratorally. Just then, Piper walked in behind Paige. "Hi," she said to the little girl, then turned to Paige, "Paige, you really shouldn't be in here. You might scare her." Paige looked over at Trielle. She was so pretty with big, brown eyes and long, shiny chestnut hair. "Trielle, this is my sister Piper. Can she hear your secret too? She's really cool," she said, stepping closer and dragging Piper with her. Trielle thought a moment, then smiled. "You're pretty. Just like Paige. You can hear too, but you guys have to promise not to tell anyone," Trielle said, again dropping her voice to a whisper. "Cross my heart," the sisters said in unison. "It wasn't really a dream that made me scream. Not really, anyways. I have them all the time. My mom calls them visions. My Daddy thinks me and my mommy are crazy. What do you think?," Trielle asked earnestly. Piper and Paige exchanged glances that said 'She's a witch?'. "No, honey. You aren't crazy. In fact, my other sister is in the room next door and she has visions too," Paige said, then felt an elbow jab her. "Sorry," she muttered at Piper. Trielle's eyes had gone wide at that information. "Wow, can I meet her too?," she asked. "Well, when you both get better, I think that would be fine," Piper said. "Trielle, can you tell us what the premonition," she began, and got a confused look from the child in front of her, "vision was about?" "It was real scary, but I'll tell you. I saw a pretty lady with a gun. And she shot someone else...The people looked familiar, but it was really hard to see. It was kind of snowy, you know like on television sometimes," she told them, concentrating hard. "Do you think she means Phoebe?," Paige whispered. Piper shrugged. "Where were they at? When the lady shot her?," Piper asked. "Here, in the hospital," she told them, then her face brightened in recognition. "Duh, it was you I saw," she said staring at Paige. You were beside the woman who got shot. Was that your sister?," she asked, delighted at figuring it out. Paige nodded sadly, then whirled around at the sound of a voice. "You shouldn't be in here. She needs rest, and if you aren't immediate family, then I'm afraid you'll have to leave," said the nurse from earlier. Paige smiled at Trielle and Piper winked. "Good talking to you kid. Get better, ok?," Piper said softly. The little girl saddened. "I can't. I got AIDS," Trielle said, but only Paige heard her. Paige slowly followed Piper out of the room, walking past the nurse as she went into the room. "Piper, do you think it's just coincidence that we met her? She has AIDS, Piper. She said that when we walked out," Paige said when out of ear shot of the nurse. "Maybe it isn't a coincidence. I can't believe she's dying. She's just a little girl," Piper said sadly. Did anything good ever happen anymore? Leo and Glenn came walking down the hall with coffee in hand. Neither Paige nor Piper noticed their absence. They both felt guilty for ignoring them, but knew they understood. "Want some coffee?," Leo asked, handing them the cups before either had the chance to answer. "Thanks," Piper said. Paige nodded in agreement. "You ok?," Glenn asked, then mentally kicked himself for the question. "Not really, but we're together. Eventually things will get better," Paige said. A pesky little boice spoke up. "You only have two days left before you have to decide to stay. Don't make promises, Paige." She still hadn't told Piper, and didn't intend to anymore. Why worry her uneccesarily? In fact, why should she wait any longer? She'd made up her mind. It had been made up when she's said that word to Piper. 'Anything.' That included her life, and Prue could get them through all this if anyone could. Glenn noticed her distraction and his eyebrows came together in worry. "Paige?," he asked. "Huh? Oh, I'm ok," she said, seeing his expression. She needed to say goodbye to her sisters. First, though, she kissed Glenn. In her kiss, she put all her goodbyes into it, all her 'I love Yous', all her 'I do's'. Paige pulled away, and went into Phoebe's room, with Piper at her heels. "Don't make this harder on yourself. Just make it short and sweet," she told herself. She hugged Piper tightly and kissed her cheek. Then she walked over to Phoebe and kissed her forehead. "What's wrong Paige?," Piper asked suspiciously. Paige smiled, "Nothing. I'm going to the bathroom," she said and hurried out. Piper stared after her, then turned to look at Phoebe. "I love you sis," Piper said, "Please get better."
