O.O
Thanx for all the reviews I got! It really means a lot to me that you guys are supporting my through the last days of my writers block! I love all the support, because it's making it go away faster! I promise longer chapters later on, really. But I can also promise that it's not going to be the next chapter. Oh, and in the next chapter, we're going to have a permanent special guest! I guess that doesn't make him a guest then, huh? Oh well! It's me! A lot of things I say don't make sense! Anyway, enough chit-chat! On with the story!
Coping With Two Homes:
Chapter 2: Frustration
Chris and Leo turned around quickly.
"How long have you two been standing there?" Chris asked, moving out of the way so Brian and Bianca could walk in.
"Long enough," Bianca said, glaring at Leo while sitting down on the couch.
"Don't blame me for your horrible parenting skills," Leo said, glaring back.
"Dad!" Chris whispered, glaring at him.
"What? I was just stating the truth," Leo said, sitting down in a chair opposite Bianca, never taking his eyes off her.
"Who cares about that?! I only care that my family's talking about what's going to happen in my life behind my back!" Brian yelled, crossing his arms and leaning against the wall.
"Brian, we're only doing what's best for you," Chris said, walking over to him and putting a hand on his arm.
Brian pushed Chris away. "I know what's best for me! Not you!"
"You're only a kid, Brian! You don't know what's best for anyone!" Bianca yelled, standing up.
"Are you saying that just because I'm a fucking kid that I'm stupid, mother?!" Brian yelled back.
"Watch your mouth!" Chris yelled.
"Why is everyone ganging up on me?!" Brian yelled in frustration, orbing to his room.
Little Chris walked in slowly. "Uh . . . Is this a bad time . . ?" he asked uncertainly, looking from future Chris to Bianca, and back again, then finally at Leo.
"No. It's a great time," Leo said, forcing a smile. "What's up?"
"It's a bad time. I can feel the tension in the air," little Chris said, starting to walk out.
Leo grabbed his arm. "No. It's okay. What's up?"
Little Chris looked back at future Chris and Bianca one last time, then grabbed Leo's sleeve and pulled him out of the room.
"So, what're we gonna do about Brian?" Bianca asked a minute later, breaking the silence.
"I really don't want him to have to switch homes every week," Chris said, facing her.
"We could always get back together, you know. For Brian, I mean," Bianca added quickly.
Chris looked at her like she was crazy.
"Just a thought . . . " Bianca muttered, looking down at the ground.
"We'll take it to court," Chris said.
Bianca looked up at him. "You're kidding, right?"
Chris shook his head. "I know that it could mean that you could win custody over him, but I'm willing to take that chance. I just don't want him to have to live in two separate home for the next three years," Chris sighed, sitting next to Bianca.
Bianca nodded in agreement, then looked over at Chris, staring into his eyes.
Chris scooted closer to Bianca, closed his eyes, and kissed her deeply.
"God, I hate you guys!" came Brian's voice from the doorway.
Bianca and Chris quickly looked up to see Brian, Leo, Piper, Wyatt, and little Chris standing there.
Brian looked at them with disgust then ran up the stairs, little Chris running after him.
"Uh . . . "Piper said uncertainly.
Chris quickly got up and was about to run up the stair when Wyatt started talking.
"Don't talk to him just yet. Trust me," he said.
Chris turned around and looked at him. He sighed and sat down on the steps, putting his head in his hands.
"I think I better go . . . " Bianca said, getting up.
"I think that's a good idea," Leo said, glaring at her.
Bianca looked down at the floor and walked out the door.
Leo watched her leave, then walked over to Chris.
Chris looked up at him and sighed. "I really screwed up."
"Personally, I blame Bianca," Leo said, earning a hit from Piper. "What?"
"You just hate her," Piper said, putting her hands on her hips.
"You can't tell me that you don't after what she did to Chris," Leo said, facing her.
"I don't. Because I don't blame her," Piper said matter-of-factly.
Wyatt walked over. "I do. He may be the future version of my little brother, but he's still my little brother."
Chris smiled weakly up at Wyatt. "Thanks. That means a lot to me."
"I bet. Since you don't have future me here to help you through this all. But you always got me. Sure, I'm younger than you, but I can still try," Wyatt said, ruffling Chris's hair and walking up the stairs.
"Why did you stay here after you changed the future, Chris?" Piper asked curiously.
"Because, since I changed the future, there's already a me there. I really don't belong anywhere, so I decided to stay here with you guys," Chris said, looking down at the floor. "But I can't say that I don't think about Wyatt every minute of every day. Because, you know, present Wyatt was right. I do need him here to help me through this all. I need him so much. He'd know exactly what to do."
"Well, maybe that can happen," Piper said, smiling a devilish smile.
Chris looked up at her. "Mom, personal gain. Remember that."
"Well, I think magic owes you," Piper said, walking up the stairs.
Chris got up and watched her disappear on the next floor.
"What do you think she's gonna do?" he asked, turning to face Leo.
"I think I have an idea of what she's going to do. And if I'm right, I can't tell you. Sorry," Leo said, smiling before orbing out.
O.O
Piper said the last words, a man forming in front of her.
The man looked at his hands then at his body, then finally looking up at Piper, smiling.
Piper smiled back. "You'll be the perfect surprise for Chris . . . Wyatt."
O.O.O.O.O
Hey! I slight cliffhanger! Cliffhangers really aren't my style, but I always thought they were hell on the stories I've read in the past, so I decided they'd be fun on my stories, so I've been working on them. Anyway, I hope you guys liked this chapter! Until next time!
