Chapter 1

Paige Halliwell threw the enormous amount of papers in her hand onto the couch. Groaning loudly, she sat down next to them and began organizing them. She looked out of the corner of her eye, as Phoebe lay on the couch, continuing to watch TV, not offering to help once. Getting slightly annoyed, she groaned once again, as she saw Piper walk into the kitchen, mop in hand.

"Ya know Phoebe; the attic is still a wreck from our last few demon attacks. We really need to start cleanin' this place up."

Phoebe groaned slightly, and just glanced at her younger sister. Turning her attention back to her shows, she dug into the opened pint of cookie dough ice-cream that rested on her stomach. Placing the three magazines in the garbage folder, since their covers and several pages were not attached any longer, Paige stood up and walked into the kitchen where Piper was placing the chairs on top of the table.

"What is wrong with her?"

"She'll snap out of it. It's just a phase." Piper sounded almost like a robot, no emotion talking about the state of the Middle Halliwell sister. When all the chairs were up on the table, she started mopping up the green slime that was all over the kitchen.

Paige rolled her eyes and slowly walked back out of the kitchen. "Man, do I miss the days I didn't have a family."

Mumbling softly to herself she headed back into the front room, sorting through the papers. Phoebe continued to look back at her, but never said a word. Her eyes would quickly turn back to the television as soon as Paige felt her watching.

"WHAT" Paige had enough, she was wondering why her sister kept staring at her, and trying to hide it on top of everything.

"What are you talking about?" Phoebe actually shut off the t.v and turned to her sister, still not leaving the comfortable couch.

"Why do you keep staring at me Pheebs? Why haven't you talked to us in days, your have almost gotten us killed, why can't you just talk to us?"

By then, Piper had entered the front room and was leaning against the open frame.

"I..I. I can't." "Why Phoebe? We know you miss Cole, it's ok.We understa.."

"I'm pregnant" Phoebe blurted out and quickly put her head in her hands to muffle her sobs. Piper's eyes widened as she stare at her sister. Quickly her and Paige rushed to the couch, and sat down next to her.

"Phoebe hun are you serious?"

Phoebe pulled off the covers and lifted up the baggy sweatshirt. Her stomach was still flat and skinny, but you could see it was begging to pudge. "About 2 and half months."

Piper looked shocked, and subconsciously placed her hand to her already swollen stomach and rubbed it slightly, before taking her other hand and placing it on Phoebe's stomach. "Does Cole know?"

Her voice was quite when she asked as Paige had her hands also on both of her sisters stomachs, smiling widely. She heard Pipers question, but didn't quite care of the answer. "Hello Melinda, Hello my baby niece or nephew." She whispered slightly, still grinning.

Phoebe gently shock her head no, as her own hand was on top of her two sisters. "I found out right after we broke up. I. I don't want him in this baby's life. I'm already scared. Last time I was pregnant the baby tried to kill Paige."

Paige's smile disappeared but she didn't move her hand from Phoebe's stomach. "That wasn't yours and Cole's baby though. That was yours and the Sources." Phoebe whispered something about she didn't see the difference, but was shortly cut off as Piper announced this called for a celebration.

4 months latter

Phoenix smiled as she quickly undid her apron and hung it on the top hook. Grabbing her purse from behind the counter, and her leather jacket, she waved bye to her co-workers as she head towards the glass door. Cole stood in the frame, leaning against it causally. Wearing nice black pants and a nice gray shirt, hidden mostly behind his own leather coat, he smiled as he saw Phoenix bouncing around with a smile plastered on her face.

"So where is it I am taking you exactly?"

"My friends having a party out on the beach. About an hour and half drive from here. So let's go buddy."

Her smile seemed to be contagious, as Cole smiled himself. He didn't smile a whole lot, it seemed when ever he was around his new perky blonde friend he felt better of himself. At times, she could even stop him from thinking about what he had been missing for months now. More specifically, 5 months, a week and two days, But Cole would never admit he knew that. She wrapped her arm around her waist and led him away from his car, and into hers. "You don't know that way. Your car will be safe here for the night."

Cole glanced sideways at her, still having a smile on his face. "I can file kidnapping."

"Aa Cole you'd go anywhere for me." She batted her eyelashes and smiled seductively. For a moment they both stared at each other, until Phoenix's smile crept through and both began to laugh uncontrollably, as they entered the car. ~

Phoebe held three month old Melinda next to her on the bed, as they watched some cartoons. One arm holding Melinda protectively at her side, as the infant chewed on one of her dolls while watching Scooby unmasks the villain, the other sat on her swollen stomach rubbing it slightly.

"Awww what the Kodak moment." Phoebe turned to see Paige standing their smiling. She slowly walked into the room, and picking up Melinda, sat down on the bed, the young one in her lap.

"Damn, I'm glad the Demons have stayed off for a few months. I'm on bed rest, and to much "activity" would result in me loosing the baby."

"Maybe they are afraid your carrying baby Lucifer again?" Paige smiled slightly, bouncing Melinda softly as she cooed and looked back from aunt to aunt with big adoring eyes. "Where's Piper?"

"Getting much needed rest. I offered to watch Mel." Phoebe smiled at her young niece who was now pulling at Paige's hair.

"How long Doctor put you on bed rest for?"

"Few more weeks, I have my ultrasound today. Care to go with me?"

"Yeah sweetheart, I have a little bit of paperwork to fill out, but after that I'm all yours." ~

Phoenix was dancing in the midst of the crowd full of people with Cole. Their bodies close together, both laughing and smiling as a slow song came on, they wrapped their arms around each other and continued to dance. They smelled of beer and cigarettes, and Phoenix had been coughing over the smoke.

"Why don't we head back to the restaurant, grab some coffee before you pass out on me." Phoenix nodded, and covered her mouth as she once again started coughing. ~~

Phoebe climbed into the car as Paige shut the door after her. Phoebe lightly kissed her stomach and began rubbing it. "Now I get a niece and a nephew. One big happy family." Paige joked, as she slowly pullet out of the parking lot smiling.

"Yeah one big confusing, hectic, abnormal family." Paige pulled out onto the interstate, but cars were backed up bumper to bumper. Honking her horn, Paige groaned as she tried to see around the cars.

"Looks like their was an accident." Phoebe said turning through radio stations and trying to relax.

"Probably dumb teenagers drinking and driving." ~~

Cole felt a seize of pain rushing through his body as he blinked a few times before he was finally able to open his eyes. When he did, he realized he was suddenly in the back seat, and was aware of people looking through his windows and trying to open his doors. Groaning loudly, he placed his hand to his head, taking it off it was full of fresh blood, and for the first time he noticed so were his clothes. The car was a wreck and he tried to remember what happened.

"Phee?" He whispered softly, trying to pull himself into the front of the car. He noticed Phoenix, as she laid their body bent in way it wasn't meant to. Her beautiful blonde hair was caked in blood, and glass lay all around her. Reaching out with one of his arm, he gently tried to shake her awake to no use. The doors finally swung open as paramedics and police took him and Phoenix and placed them in different ambulances.
