" look all I'm saying is that you talk to us about it....or Leo, I mean he may be my husband but he is also your whitelighter," Piper huffed while shuffling through the crates of beer trying to find one suitable for her strength. She grimaced as she picked up the lightest one she could find and headed toward the bar.
" No, I'm fine!" Paige shouted, throwing her arms up in frustration. She hustled over to Piper and took the crate from her just as Piper was about to drop it.
" Thanks," Piper sighed and followed Paige over to the bar. "Paige I really don't understand what the big deal is," Piper continued trying to squeeze any sort of information out of Paige.
Paige almost slammed the box down in anger. She whirled around and started screaming at Piper, " Look I have already explained to Phoebe that I don't want to talk, think, or hear another word about this until tonight," Paige paused for a moment to make sure Piper was understanding she was getting really ticked off about this. " Look, Piper I'm sorry, I just don't want anymore 3rd degree right now, God only knows how much I'm going to get tonight"
Paige walked past Piper toward a storage room to get the speakers for the band that was going to play the following night.
Piper just stared at her as she disappeared into the room. She began doing what she does best.....worry and pondering about the "what ifs"
" Phoebe's right," Piper began thinking to herself." Something is terribly wrong, and what if I can't do anything about it." She began biting her lip," Oh lord I don't need this right now, we don't need this right now." Piper thoughts began running faster and faster.
"Piper!" Paige yelled from the other room.
Paige's voice came as a shock to Piper and she jumped out of her trance.
" I know your not supposed to but would you help me out?" Paige pleaded.
" Yea sure." Piper shouted back heading toward the room.
**************************
" Hello?" Phoebe shouted as she wobbled through the front door, portfolios of letters overloading her arms, when she got no reply she turned and closed the door and set her work load on a table in the foyer.
She walked in the kitchen to make some tea and as she waited for the water to boil she began to ponder about what was going on in her little sister's mind.
" Dammit" she muttered to herself. That was alllllll she thought about for the last 24 hours, Paige , Paige, Paige. Why couldn't she think of something else to think about, it was nerve-racking. whatever, everything will be out in the open soon enough, and as if almost on cue Paige and Piper burst through the door.
Paige was the first to enter the kitchen she looked at Phoebe who gave an over exaggerated smile. Paige's face fell.
Piper walked in a few moments later. She looked from Paige to Piper thinking it was now or never
" Great!" She said cheerfully "we are all her together so lets go and talk.........and tea we can have tea" she finished feeling the uncomfortable tension in the room.
Phoebe grabbed Paige's arm and moved toward the one of the living rooms.
Piper came in seconds later with the tea.
" So" Piper smiled handing them each a glass.
Piper and Phoebe's eyes shifted to Paige, who tried as best she could to hide behind her cup.
" you promised Paige," Phoebe pleaded
Paige sighed and put down her cup. She rolled up her pants and her long sleeve shirt, and she turned her arms up so that her wrist side of her arm was showing, she choked back tears as she watched Piper and Phoebe's faces twist and turn into expressions of horror.
"Oh my God Paige," Phoebe gasped. She attempted to grasp Paige's arm but Paige was too quick for her and covered her arms and legs back up.
" Paige, what has happened to you? " Piper cried choking back another river of tears.
Paige remained silent.
" Answer me dammit!" it was Piper who had finally became furious.
Paige began to whimper.
" No don't you do this," Piper shouted." You are tougher then this, I have never known you like this, you never cry when something supernatural rattles your cage!"
"Piper," Phoebe cooed. She tugged at Piper's arm, in the mist of Piper's screaming Piper had shot up in anger hovering over Paige. Phoebe tugged again, this time getting Piper to sit down. Piper placed her head in her hands.
" Paige what is going on," Phoebe asked once more.
Paige looked over at Piper whose'' head was still in her hands.
" The cuts are from dreams." Paige said forcing it out.
" Ok, who gives you these cuts?" Phoebe continued to question.
Paige looked down. avoiding Phoebe's eyes.
" Paige" Phoebe pushed.
How was she supposed to tell them? "Paige" Phoebe echoed in Paige's thoughts. They would never believe me. "Paige" I can't, I won't , they don't deserve this. " Paige!" Phoebe shouted for the third time finally breaking Paige's thoughts.
"PRUE!!!!!! Prue is the one who did this to me! It's Prue!" Paige shouted tears in her eyes.
Phoebe looked at Paige with a disbelieving look on her face.
Piper's head finally came out of her heads, " Get out"
" No, I'm fine!" Paige shouted, throwing her arms up in frustration. She hustled over to Piper and took the crate from her just as Piper was about to drop it.
" Thanks," Piper sighed and followed Paige over to the bar. "Paige I really don't understand what the big deal is," Piper continued trying to squeeze any sort of information out of Paige.
