"Oh no…" Chris kept saying.

"What? What is it?"

"You were right. I wasn't supposed to change the future that much! What have I done?"

"Chris I wasn't being fair. You did an amazing thing, saving your mom like that! You should be proud. I was just being cruel. I'm sorry." Paige pleaded. She didn't understand why Chris was freaking out like that.

"No…you were absolutely fair. I was being selfish. But…I just wanted to save her so much you know? I just missed her…" Chris cried.

"I know, I understand..." Paige said soothingly. Except it wasn't working at all.

"I completely messed up the future!"

"No! No you didn't Chris! You don't know that!"

"You don't know that I didn't completely screw up everything!"

"Chris, calm down. We can figure this out. Just take a deep breath. We can figure it all out. I promise."

"How?!?" Chris yelled.

"I don't know yet, but you're going to wake everyone up!" Paige hissed.

A door slammed in the hallway upstairs.

"Too late…" Chris grumbled.

They could hear Piper's bedroom door opening and Phoebe asking "What's that noise? Is it a demon?"

Piper, Leo, and Phoebe rushed downstairs and Phoebe jumped in front of them screaming "HIYA!" and waving her hands around.

Chris and Paige raised their eyebrows and had identical looks of shock/amusement on their face.

"Chris? What's wrong?" Leo asked, seeing his son's amused expression fade into worry and sadness.

"I am worried that I messed too much with the future…" Chris said, not looking at his family.

Especially Piper. He knew this would break her heart. He knew how bad it sounded.

And he was right. Piper inhaled sharply. This couldn't be happening again. They were just becoming close. And now he was having second thoughts about saving her?

"You think saving me was…a bad idea?" She asked her voice breaking as she choked on a sob.

"No! No! Of course not!" Chris cried, rushing over to her. "It's just that…they warned me not to change to mess with the future so much. Just a surgical strike."

"To save Wyatt?" Leo asked.

"To save Wyatt." Chris said.

"Who warned you, Chris?" Piper asked, slightly calmer.

"I can't tell you that."

"Here we go again!" Phoebe said, trying to lighten the mood.

"Look, Phoebe, Paige, Leo…why don't you upstairs and let me talk to Chris?" Piper asked. She didn't mean to sound rude, but this was a serious matter and she wanted to deal with it without jokes and people telling her to be calm.

"Sure. No problem." They said and headed upstairs.

Chris took Piper's hand.

"You have to know that I wanted to save you. I'm glad I saved you. I love you so much, and I just wanted you to be there. Always be there. You know that right?"

Piper was so surprised. She knew exactly how Chris felt. She always wanted to warn her mother to stay away from water, to prevent her death.

"Of course I do! I'm sorry; I knew that you wanted to protect me. I didn't mean to sound accusing earlier."

"Good. I love you mom…"

"I love you too. And I know exactly how you feel, Chris." Piper said softly.

"You do?" Chris asked, confused.

"Sure. Me, your Aunt Prue, and Aunt Phoebe once time traveled and met our mom before she died. I barely remembered her, and Phoebe had no memories of her at all. But we all wanted to save her. Just like you did."

Chris smiled slightly.

"Although, you know what? I think your Aunt Phoebe should probably tell you this story. Do you think you could wait until tomorrow?"

"I guess. Why Aunt Phoebe?"

"You'll see…Do you mind me going back up?" Piper asked.

"I'm okay. Good night Mom," Chris said.

"Night sweetie," Piper said, giving Chris a big kiss on top of his head.

After Piper had gone back upstairs, Chris headed outside with a blanket.

He wanted to look at the stars for awhile.
