Love you all, Review please I enjoy all you have to say especially you Tiger-X!

part four

=crescent=

::Temperance::

I stroked the soft tendrils of his hair. Inhaling the fresh summer breeze as it blew gently through the open window.

"How did you get in here?" I whispered almost afraid to ask.I continued to stroke his hair, not able to denie myself

what had not been mine to do for so long. "How long have you been here?" I asked before he could answer. My gray

eyes misty as I continued to gaze upon his face.

::Geir::

I smiled, loving the feeling of her finger on my hair. I sighed softly. I had missed the simple gestures she did to comfort

me. I remember as children we would get into all kinds of trouble. I so loved her then. And I still do now. I use to write of her

in my journal, use to carve her name into trees, furniture, and even myself. Father never wanted me to see her, he said she

was evil, that she ought to be hanged. Father was right, she always was evil, but not to me. Father had to die. And so he did.

Then I could spend so much time with her. She asked me how I got her but before I could answer she asked another question.

Always the curious the one. She would lead and I would follow. Yes, I would follow her anywhere. "I've been here for 300 years..."

300 years of crying, screaming, hating him. I know not who he is. I dreamed of him the night before I was trapped here. I dreamed

he would capture her heart. That he would take her away from me. She's mine and I won't ever share her. I put the crestinan next to

her on the bed then put one hand on her and one on it. I thought it would bind us together in here, but instead it only took me. I thought

she'd figure it out and think I was protecting her. I thought we were in love. I'll make her forget him. This place can make you forget anything.

::Tempus::

I lay awake listening to the storm raging outside. I hadn't slept since she was taken from me, and it had not stoped raining since that day

as well. Holly thought she was so clever, but she will take Temperance's place. She will. I rolled onto my side touching the spot that Temperance

usually occupied.Her scent lingered there and I could not bring myself to wash anything with her scent upon it. my eyes shifted to the silver cube

upon the dresser. She's so close and yet so very far away. I squeezed my eyes shut, tears spilling from them. Holly had so many who supported her

truly love her. I have Temperance. Only her. No one ever supports the evil ones. They think our love is false, or that she turned me evil. She has done

nothing but loved me. How can that be wrong? Tell me, please?

::paige::

She had locked herself in her room. She refused to eat or come out. Piper was having a nervouse breakdown and Leo was pleading at Holly's door once again.

The girl was stubborn, after Robby had left she tore herself free of me. Screaming she hated me as she ran into her bedroom and locked the door. No

amount of pleading could get her out. The only signs of life coming from the room were the random I hate you's that she would yell. I sighed heavily. It had been

three days and robby still hadn't returned. I stroked Piper's hair, trying to comfort her as best I could. She mumbled about prue and Phoboe in her sleep. She didn't

however mention me. Not that I ever thought she would. After all I'm only the half-sister.

::Leo::

I sighed. Holly wouldn't answer my pleas, I couldn't orb into her room because she had a shield over it. I am so tired. So tired of being the loyal husband, the supportive father, the strong silent one. Always in the background. I love piper,holly and paige. But sometimes I wish I could breakdown like piper, hide away like holly, be so optimistic like paige. Life is hard and for me it seems to be getting even more hard. Tears welled in my eyes, I couldn't fail them. But I can't live like this anymore. No,my love for them isn't strong enough anymore. I looked around me for only a moment before I orbed for the last time.

::Holly::

I glared at the broken mirror. I hate her. She doesn't understand that robby loves me now that Temperance is gone and the spell is broken. He 's

come to his sense. Why won't paige? I don't care what she says, He and I are meant to be. It is as simple as that. I adjusted the black wig on my head.

I almost looked like her, only I wasn't pale enough, my eyes weren't right either. I threw the wig at the wall violently. I hate wanting to be her. I thought after she was gone I'd be happy with me again. But I'm not. I want what she wants. Robby. The difference is I can actually have her...I mean him. Robby is what I want, not her. She's evil and mean and so pretty and smart and.....I must be tired. I need to sleep and when I wake up I can think of a way to get near Robby. Because he is what I want. Right? I mean Robby is what I have always wanted. He is good deep down inside I know it! And he needs me to help him forget her. Forget everything about her...Her beauty...Her grace...Her voice...Her body...Her eyes and face... Why am I breathing so hard? I don't understand. I screamed, nothing in particular, I just needed a release. I felt so hot and laid down upon my bed closing me eyes and seeing her face. I smiled as I feel asleep.
