Chapter 26: Another Paige In History
Paige examined herself in the mirror. The skirt on her wedding dress was hug, like some kind of Southern Bell dress. But her stomach was kinda big now, so the top of the dress was made to be loose. The dress was satin with a thin cover of silk lace. The dress had been her adoptive mother's wedding dress, for her something old. Piper had been kind enough to buy a small tiara to match the wedding veil, as her something new. Prue had let Paige wear a pearl neckless as her something borrowed and Patty, her birth mother, had gave her a pair of blue diamond earrings as her something blue. Patty had been allowed to come for the wedding. Her shoes were white, lace heels, and she wore white lace gloves. The sides of Paige's hair were pulled back into a half pony tail, but not all of her hair. Two stray, wavy strands hung on each side of her face. She wore a darkish-bright pink lipstick, that looked the best on her. Her cheeks were highlighted with pink, sparkly blush. Paige heard a knock at the door. "Who is it?" Paige called.
"It's Piper." Piper answered, from outside the door. "May I come in?" Piper asked.
"Yeah, come in." Paige answered. She heard the door squeak open and turned around. "I'm fat." Paige moaned.
"No, Paige, you look beautiful!" Piper said. "In fact, I envy you." Piper added. Piper was wearing a pale pink peasent top with bell sleeves and a pastel, floaral printed skirt. She had on white, heeld sandles. Piper wore a light pink lipstick, but that was all the makeup she put on. Her nails were painted light pink for the wedding.
"What?" Paige asked, in confusion.
"I envy you." Piper repeated.
"How so?" Paige asked. "I mean...I was the adoptive one. I should envy you." Paige said.
"No. You were lucky and now you get to have a baby too. No that I'm complaing, I love my niece and she isn't even born yet, but I've just wanted kids for so long." Piper explained.
"You'll have a daughter, you know it, don't worry." Paige cajoled.
Before Piper could answer the door squeaked again. Piper turned around to see Prue, Phoebe, and Patty waiting at the door.
Phoebe waved. "Hi?" Phoebe asked.
"Are we interrupting something?" Prue asked.
Piper and Paige exchanged glances.
"No..Nothing at all." Paige said.
Piper quickly turned to Paige and sent her the, I'll talk to you later, look.
Paige nodded in agreement. "Glad you found the time to come and find me." Paige said, as she looked at the now full room.
"Paige, you look stunning!" Prue said. Prue was wearing a dark blue, long, satin dress that went to her ankles. Her heels matched the dress and had little diamonds, to clip onto the toe of each shoe. She had her hair pulled into a bun and tied with a dark lue, satin ribbon. Her cheeks had a slight shimmer of blush and her lips were done in a light red. Her nails were painted blue with little diamonds on them.
"I love the gown!" Phoebe said. Phoebe wore a strapless forest green dress that went to her ankles, with a slit that went up to her knee, on the left side. Her long, wavy brown hair hung over her bare shoulders. Her lips were colored in deep red and her cheeks had a reddish glow to them. Phoebe's nails were painted emerald green and she had on matching heeled sandles.
"It was my adoptive mom's wedding gown. She wanted me to have it." Paige responded, as a wistful look crossed her face, and quickly faded away.
"I'm glad she was good to you." Patty said. Patty wore a long, pale yellow gown. Her nails were painted in a pearl color and she wore no makeup. Her golden brown hair hung down her back and she wore simple, white heels.
Paige smiled. "Ya know, the gown does go great with your earrings." Paige said.
Patty smiled. "Keep them. It isn't like I have use for them anyway, being a spirit and all." Patty said. "You do look beautiful." Patty said, as she admired her youngest daughter.
"But I still look huge!" Paige complained.
"A woman looks the most beautiful when she's pregnant." Prue said, trying to make Paige happy.
"And since your pregnant and dressed to get married, it goes double for you!" Piper spoke up.
A smile slowly swept across Paige's face. "Thanks you all." Paige said softly.
Leo fastened Glenn's tie. "You know what you're getting yourself into, right?" Leo teased.
"Yeah, a world of trouble." Glenn teased back, with a good laugh.
"No man....Once you're with a Halliwell sister, it is waaaay more than trouble." Cole joked.
"They're stubborn as hell!" Leo warned.
"And soon you'll be stuck with two of 'em." Cole added, as he playfully punched Glenn in the arm.
"Thanks for the warning, but I'm sure I'll make it out alive. I've known Paige since we were little kids...." Glenn said.
"How was she then?" Leo asked.
"Let's just say her personality has amplified about three or four...thousand...times more since then." Glenn said, with a sly grin.
In a swirl of white lights Penny and Sam appeared in the center of the attic. "C'mon Sam. You've got a daughter to talk to." Penny said, as she led him out the door. Penny walked down the hallway until she came to her old room and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Prue called.
"Who else?" Penny asked.
"Grams!" Piper called out, as she opened the door. Piper quickly hugged Penny.
Penny walked into the room and smiled at Paige. "You look lovely." Penny said. "Oh..and I have someone who wants to talk to you." Penny said. Penny had on a long, white gown with bell sleeves, and definatly looked like a high priestess. Her shoes were white granny boots with golden trim. She wore light red lipstick but nothing more, makeup wise.
Phoebe felt a sudden rush of insecurity and fright wash over her, thanks to her new power of empathy.
Moments later Sam entered the room. He was wearing a black tux, white shirt, and black bow tie. He had on black, polished shoes and looked well dressed for the wedding.
"Dad..." Paige said.
'No wonder....He's really nervous about being around her...He feels so awful...' Phoebe thought, with a slight shiver. 'Guess I don't have as much control ovet this power as I thought...' Phoebe thought to herself.
"I think we'd better leave them alone for a few minutes." Prue said, as she ushered everyone out of the room. "Have fun." Prue said, as she telekinetically shut the door.
"Thanks for coming." Paige said.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world. I've already missed too much of your life." Sam said.
"That means a lot to me." Paige said. "And I hope that maybe..you could come and visit every so often, so you won't miss all of my daught..your granddaughter's life." Paige said.
"I'll see what I can do about that.." Sam said softly.
"Now, you three are the bride's maids, correct?" Penny asked, looking at Prue, Piper, and Phoebe.
"Of course." Prue said. Without warning her body went limp.
Astral Prue appeared in the kitchen and grabbed 3 bouquets of flowers and walked back to the living room with them. Astral Prue handed a bouquet to Piper and Phoebe and then tossed the last bouquet into the air. Astral Prue faded away.
Real Prue awoke and held out her hand, telekinetically catching the bouquet, before it could hit the ground.
"Prue, I think the bride is suppose to throw the bouquet." Piper teased.
Prue rolled her eyes. "So, can't a sister of the bride have some fun?" Prue asked.
Leo, Cole, and Glenn walked in.
Phoebe grinned. "Cole...You look really nice." Phoebe said, with a sly smile.
Cole smiled back and winked. "You're sister's wedding, remember?" Cole said, rasing an eyebrow.
"Oh yeah..." Phoebe said, as she frowned playfully.
Each guy was dressed in a nice, black tux, crisp white shirt, and black tie. They had on brand new, polish black shoes, and new black socks.
"Phoebe..." Penny warned.
Phoebe nodded in response.
"Take your places everyone!" Penny called.
The group of guests took their places in their seats; Prue, Piper, and Phoebe gathered around the alter; and Glenn took his place before Penny.
Penny turned to the CD player and waved her hand, telekinetically starting the wedding song; the music began to fill the house.
Paige picked up her bouquet of lavender lilacs. "Guess that's my song?" Paige asked.
Sam nodded and pulled the viel over Paige's head. "Congratulations Paige." Sam said, as he took her arm, and led her out the room. He walked Paige down the hall and slowly down the stairs.
Everyone was looking at the stairway and when Paige and Sam appeared, everyone rose up.
Sam slowly and carefully led his only daughter down the stairs of the Halliwell Manor and to the alter. Then Sam stepped back.
Penny smiled as she looked at Paige and Glenn then she began. "We're gathered here today to announce the union of Paige Halliwell and Glenn Belland, long time sweetheats. This union shall not be broken for it binds the souls of both people, as one. Glenn, do you take Paige to be your wife; to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, to death do you part?" Penny asked.
Glenn nodded. "I do." Glenn said, as he took Paige's hand.
"And Paige, do you take Glenn to be your husband; to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, to death do you part?" Penny asked.
Paige took Glenn's other hand. "I do." Paige said.
Penny waved her hand and a red, velvet ribbon floated into the air. She then waved her hand again and the ribbon wrapped around Paige and Glenn's hands. "With the power of the witches around the world and the sould magic of the great Halliwell line, I now pronounce you wife and husband. You may kiss the bride." Penny said.
Glenn gently lifted Paige's viel and passionatly kissed her. He could hear the cheer of everyone in the room, but they didn't seem important right now. He just wanted Paige.
"I now give to you, Mr. and Mrs. Glenn and Paige Halliwell Belland." Penny replied, as she watched Glenn and Paige turn to face the crowd. Penny stepped down from the alter and walked to Paige and hugged her. "Congratulations my dear granddaughter. I knew you'd find your way home." Penny said.
Paige hugged her back. "Thanks for making sure I had a lit path to follow." Paige replied.
Penny then walked over to Glenn and shook his hand. "Welcome, to the Halliwell family. Take good care of her." Penny said.
"I promise to. And thank you, Mrs. Halliwell." Glenn replied.
"Penny, please." Penny answered.
Paige looked at the crowd. "Who wants to catch the bouquet?" Paige asked.
Prue and Phoebe looked at each other, then raised their hands at the same time.
Paige smirked and then turned around, then threw a swirl of orbs into the air, behind her. The orbs vanished and then reformed, as a falling bouquet.
Prue waved her hand and telekinetically pulled the bouquet to her, over Phoebe's head.
Phoebe grinned and channeled Prue's emotions. She had become quite good at this over the last few weeks. Phoebe's body then went limp.
Astral Phoebe appeared in front of Prue and jumped into the air, spin kicking the bouquet away from Prue and flying high into the air. Astral Phoebe disappeared.
Phoebe awoke and levitated into the air, catching the bouquet as it went sailing at her, then she levitated to the ground and held up her prize. "Wha la!" Phoebe said. "I guess I'll be getting married next?" Pheoebe asked, more as a statement. Then she winked at Cole.
Prue glared at Phoebe. "I hate you..." Prue joked.
"I know." Phoebe replied, with a smirk. TO BE CONTINUED....
