Paige, Piper, and Prue were sitting on their familiar couch at P3. They were chatting away when one of the waitresses asked if they wanted anything.
"I want a Shirley Temple" Paige said.
"Spring water for me, Prue what about you?"
Piper asked.
"A strawberry wine cooler ," Prue responded.
"Is that is?" The waitress asked obviously confused.
"A Shirley and a spring?"
"And a wine cooler" Piper added.
The waitress nodded and left.
"Piper, that chick probably thinks you're nuts now." Paige said.
"Why?" She asked.
"Oh I don't know talk to air? We're the only ones that can see Prue remember?"
"Oh my gosh! I pulled a Phoebe!" Piper said.
"Yeah well, you can just blame it on Paige. "Prue said jokingly.
"Hey! .... Blame it on stress. Or you could always just tell her that your sisters are the charmed ones the most powerful witches, and that you dead sister is who
you were talking too. "Paige suggested with a smirk.
"Hmmm funny Paige. Has anyone seen Phoebe walk in?" Piper asked.
"Oh, speaking of Phoebe.... What about her and Cole? "Prue asked nosily.
"Prue, you've been watching for a year, didn't you see ?"Piper asked.
"Well, I can't see everything."
"Oh well, they are engaged, but Phoebe was holding off to get married until you could be here. "Piper said.
"Well then I guess its a good thing I am here. "Prue stated. Happy to know Phoebes still thought about her.
"Cole gave her Grams' ring, which by the way had a curse on it! But the only demonic power he has now is..."Before Piper could finish, Phoebe and Cole
shimmered in.
"Hello my beautiful sisters, all three of you," Phoebe said with a smile.
"Prue, I believe you remember Cole."
"You mean he hasn't left by now? Or at least been unfaithful?"((now remember Cole can neither hear nor see Prue))
Phoebe could feel the anger building up.
"Prue even when you're dead. You can't lay off? Cole and I are getting married," she said waving the ring. "And to think I put off my wedding to wait so all
my sisters could be there!" Phoebe screamed.
She turned on her heel and walked out. She stood outside trying to compose herself, keeping her anger from exploding.
Cole stood very confused.
"Piper, Paige, some one tell me she isn't insane!" Cole pleaded.
"Actually she's not. Prue is next to me. But only flesh and blood can see her." Paige informed him.
"Oh yeah right. So what did she say to make Phoebe so pissed?"
"Hmmm....I know I know, pick me.. "Prue replied.
Paige and Piper glared at Prue. She was still the same old Prue. Hating every man but Leo either of her sisters had dated, especially Cole.
"Okay now what?" He asked.
"She was merely talking how she used to about and she was very blunt with her feelings." Piper stated, choosing her words wisely.
"What else is new? I'm just going to go check on Phoebe." Cole stated as he walked away and out of the club.
Prue ! "Piper shouted." I can not believe you! After a year, you still hate him! Let it go for Gods sake! I
"Piper did you forget he is a demon! One which by the way tried to kill us on several occasions! "Prue was getting heated, and Piper knew it. Normally, she
would've backed off, but not this time. Cole is good now, and he makes Phoebe happy.
"Cole has changed. You are so bull headed that you can't see that. He helped us many times when we couldn't keep it together. When you abandon us." Piper
said realizing what she had jus said.
Prue just looked at Piper. She hadn't expected her to be this angry, or this hurt.
"Piper, do you really think I abandon you ? "Prue asked.
Piper sighed. Prue wasn't supposed to be seen and she was starting to understand why.
Prue, you've been dead for a year. We had to teach Paige how to be a witch. While saving innocence and at the same time, grieving for you. I
"I'm just going to go check on Phoebe." Paige stated. It gave her an excuse to leave the madness.
"Piper, you now it was my destiny to die."
"But, you weren't supposed to come back. Phoebe and I got used to Paige and have grown to love her. Not that we don it think about you every day."
Prue started to cry. She had accepted her destiny. But she hadn't been away long enough for her sisters to completely heal. She now understood why The
Elders hadn't wanted her to watch over her sisters.
