D/C: I don't own Charmed.

Chapter 3

"Where have you been?" A man with golden blonde hair asked Lexi, he picked her up and walked into the kitchen, where a woman with light brown hair was chopping vegetables.

"Across the street. Did you know Leo lives there? And he has a wife. Her name's Piper, and she has two sisters, their names are Phoebe and Paige. Ha, they all start with Ps isn't that funny?" Lexi asked. Dennis laughed and nodded. Morgan rolled her eyes and put the chopped vegetables into a pot.

"And they are really pretty and super nice." Lexi said. Dennis smiled and put Lexi down. Morgan looked at Lexi.

"Jake, Matt, Josh come down here please!" Morgan called. Dennis looked at his wife curiously. She looked at Lexi again.

"Alexis, please ask before you go anywhere again, okay?" Morgan asked firmly. Lexi nodded and looked down. Dennis put a hand on Lexi's back.

"Come on Morgan she's five years old." Dennis started. Morgan rolled her eyes.

"She's a five year old that's not supposed to be here. She could get hurt." Morgan hinted. Dennis now had his eye rolling turn.

"She can't get hurt there's nothing to hurt her. She's a five year old that has an aunt that she just met going crazy over a little accident, a coincidence." Dennis said. Again Morgan shook her head.

"She's a five year old with an uncle who won't admit that there is a problem with her family, and that something is after her." Morgan whispered the last three words. Dennis rolled his eyes. Three boys, another dark haired one, a blonde haired one and a brunet arrived, coming from outside.

"Josh, watch over your brothers and sister. I'm going to china town to pick up a few things." Morgan said. Dennis rolled his eyes again, watching his wife go out the door.

Lexi put her plate in the sink, and turned around to see her three brothers standing there. Lexi lifted an eyebrow.

"What?" Lexi asked. The boys smiled, and started to laugh.

"Hey Lexi, we're bored wanna play?" The brown haired boy asked. Lexi shook her head.

"No, I'm gong to go to Leo's. I can go to them when every I want to." Lexi said. Two of the boys grimaced.

"Come on Lex, you haven't played with us in a long time." Jake begged. Lexi laughed and shrugged.

"That's okay; I don't really like my head being put in a toilet." Lexi said. The three boys laughed, and then they turned towards the boy with the blonde hair.

"You're next Matt." Jake said as he grabbed his brother's arm. Josh laughed, and joined in. Matt at first resisted, and then started laughing hysterically. Lexi started laughing as well, and then jumped on her oldest brother.

"Let him go let him go!" Lexi playfully yelled. Jake shook her off, and then it was interrupted by a phone call. Lexi fell, and then got up to get the phone.

"Hello?" Lexi asked.

"Yeah can you hang on?" Lexi asked. She looked into the living room where Dennis sat.

"Uncle Dennis it's for you." Lexi said. Dennis smiled and took the phone, his face turned to a frown.

"Yes, yes I, I understand, a car accident? Yes, thank you." Dennis said before hanging up the phone. His eyes were teary, as he looked to the kids.

"Get your coats we're going out." Dennis said.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"I don't get why we were invited here. We don't even know Megan and David." Phoebe said, looking at the sign that said 'Walk in'. Paige opened the door, and stepped inside.

"It's Dennis, and Morgan." Piper corrected. Phoebe nodded as she stepped inside the deeply depressed room. She looked around, at the people mingling, no one smiling. They saw Dennis trying to calm down Lexi's brothers.

"Boys will be boys." Leo said. Piper looked around, this place had definitely set it's own mood. They spotted Lexi sitting Indian style on a rather big chair. They overheard an elderly lady say to her husband as she they walked by.

"This is just terrible! First his nephew he barley even knew and now his wife!" The elderly woman exclaimed. Paige looked behind her at the woman, and then focused on Lexi. She sad in the chair and seemed to rock.

"Hey Lexi." Piper greeted, as she put an arm around the small little girl. Lexi this time didn't even acknowledge her, nor the rest of the party. She was in the same black dress, and her hair was scattered in a pony tail.

"I'm sorry about your aunt." Leo comforted. Lexi shrugged, and looked up at the ceiling.

"She's with Prue now. She's with my daddy and Danny. She's going to be happy." Lexi said. Piper froze, that statement startled her. She looked at Leo who shrugged. Phoebe watched nervously, as Dennis came by them. His face was pale, and he had bags under his eyes, that were also glassy.

"Hi, you must be Leo." Dennis said, shaking Leo's hand. Leo nodded.

"Dennis, it's great to finally meet you." Leo said. Dennis gave him a half smile, and looked from Piper to Phoebe to Paige.

"I've heard a lot about you." Dennis said. Piper smiled, and looked at Lexi, who was mumbling something. The group heard Dennis's name being called, and he waved and walked towards the back of the house.

"One by one they'll leave you until there's no one home. One by one they'll leave you until your all alone." Lexi sang, Leo looked down at her, and Phoebe placed an arm around her.

"Sweetheart, remember what Paige said? The song doesn't go that way." Phoebe said, beginning to think that the song was getting to her mind. Lexi looked up at Phoebe.

"Will you leave me?" She asked. Phoebe shook her head.

"No, I won't ever leave." Phoebe said in her baby voice. Lexi looked down again.

"He said you would." Lexi actually sang it back. She looked up at Leo, and then smiled.

"Are you an angel?" Lexi asked with a smile on her face. Leo smiled and nodded.

"That's what Prue said." Lexi replied. Piper dropped her eyebrows, and then looked Lexi in the eyes.

"What does Prue look like?" Piper asked, making sure it wasn't a coincidence. Lexi giggled and started humming.

"You know cuz there's picters of her in your house." Lexi answered. Piper looked at Leo, and then looked to Paige and Phoebe.

"What does he look like?" Phoebe asked. Lexi's eyes shut, and then she opened them again.

"I never see HIM, I just hear him." Lexi corrected. Phoebe tilted her head, not so sure about her answer. Lexi looked around the room, and then looked at Leo again, and paused. Then she looked back down. She started singing again, which made Piper realize there was more to the song than they all thought.
