Friday came by all too quickly. Wyatt sat by the door waiting for, Beth. Piper and Leo sat on the couch waiting, too. Leo and Wyatt spoke to each other, but it was usually strained conversations. The doorbell rang.

Piper looked at her watch. "On time," she said smiling.

Wyatt grumbled, and opened the door. " Hi," he said without emotion. Beth smiled at him, and walked in with books in her arms.

"Mom, Leo, this is, Beth. Beth, that's my mom, Piper,and that's just, Leo." Wyatt introduced them.

Piper immediatly took to, Beth

"HI!" Piper said to her. " If you guys need anything, we'll be in the kitchen. "

Leo and Piper walked out.

"Can we just get this over and done with?" Wyatt asked, Beth. She gave him a dirty look.

" I didn't have to come here and help you, Wyatt, but I did. If you're gonna treat me like this, I'm gonna leave," she yelled back.

"Calm down, don't have a cow!" Wyatt said.

He walked into the foyer, and sat down by his books. An hour went by, and Wyatt found out they had a lot in common. He found her interesting, and he learned a few things from her.

"Wow, you actually paid attention," she said teasing him. " You know, you're a lot smarter than you think."

Wyatt looked at her differently, seeing her in a new light. They stared at each other for a moment, not talking. Piper walked in, then stopped noticing the two. She cleared her throat. Wyatt and Beth turned around. Piper smiled at, Beth, knowing her charm was working.

"Mom, we just got finished." Wyatt told her.

"So, how's my son doing?" Piper asked, Beth.

"Terrible; He hasn't understood a word I said. I'm this close of giving up," Beth teased again.

"Yeah, okay! She just told me I'm smart; So don't believe her, mom."

"Okay," Piper answered. " Beth, would you like to stay for dinner?"

Beth shook her head. " Thanks, but I have to study for a couple of tests, and I have to go to ' Sit, Read, and Listen ' to perform." She answered.

"Wait, what do you perform?" Wyatt asked her curiously.

Beth smiled at him. "Well, I perform music. I play the guitar, and sing at different places. Mostly bookstores, though."

" Really?" Piper asked. " If you weren't so young, I'd asked you to perform in my club."

"No, way! Getting up and playing in front of a few people, is hard enough, let alone a full club," Beth said to her.

Piper laughed at her nervousness.

"So, what time are you playing at?" Wyatt asked her.

Beth looked at, Piper if she should tell him, and Piper's look said yes. She told them that she plays at nine.

"Well, I really got to go. I know I was only here for a couple of hours, but next week, it will be a lot longer; I promise," she told Wyatt. Beth got her stuff together, and left.

Piper looked at her son. " You like her," she told him.

Wyatt just smiled at his mother, "How do you know these things?"

Piper gave him a charming smile, and put her arm around him. " Wyatt, I'm your mother, and I know these things." she paused for a second. " You can go to the bookstore if you want, and go watch."

Wyatt looked at her. " I thought I was grounded?"

" Well, I can see that in the past hour or so, Beth has brought out the best in you. So, you can go."

Wyatt tried to hold in his excitement. " Thanks, mom." He ran to go upstairs, and bumped into, Leo. "Sorry, dad," Wyatt apologized. He looked awkwardly at him, and ran faster up the stairs.

" Wow, her charm worked faster than yours," Leo teased Piper.

Piper walked over to him, and hugged him. "As I recall, my charm worked very quickly. I am after all, a Charmed One."

They laughed and Leo looked upwards to where his son was.

" I just want my family back, that's all," he told Piper.

"Well, maybe you will," she answered as they sat down on the couch again. " Just be patient. Wyatt just inherited my stubborness, and well, just be patient."
