Little things change so much Part 20:
Colapsing

--------------------

"No! Andy? Andy?!"
Prue closed her eyes trying not to explode and also trying to suppress the dizzy spell, that once more rushed over her. She then walked into living
"Pheebs... enough TV for today. Homework is waiting..."
"But... just let me watch that to end"
"Pheebs..."
"Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease Prue"
Prue again closed her eyes and backed at the wall.
'Sleep.'
She thought and then started to go back upstairs. She wanted to go down the hall to her room, when she heard crying coming from Piper's room. She opened the door without knocking. If she knocked, she knew, Piper would fast pull her tears away and say she just got something into her eye or something. She knew her little sister didn't want to stress her out. Prue on her side knew, she had to care for her.
"Piper?"
"Prue!
Piper yelped in a still crying voice, fast trying to get the tears away form her eyes and cheek
"What's wrong?"
Prue asked walking up to Piper and sitting down next to her on bed
"Nothing..."
"Piper..."
"The... the girls in my class laughed about me... they... they said I was... stupid... and... ugly... and that I couldn't do anything without you"
Piper said, starting to cry all over again. Prue only then noticed the mirror close to her sister. Prue immediately pulled her into a hug
"Don't listen to them... they're just simply stupid and completely jealous cause of all what you have and they don't"
"Of what can they be jealous? I am ugly!"
Prue looked in shock at her sister. She couldn't believe her sister believed that crap
"You are not!"
"But..."
"No!! You are the most beautiful angel I know and I won't let those bitches tell you something else! Who was it?"
"Prue... let me handle this... a... alone"
"Okay... but what do you think about this: tomorrow you get up a bit earlier and we dress you up and I make you a wonderful make up"
Piper's face lightened
"Okay"
Prue said and gently pulled Piper's tears away then kissed her forehead gently and gave her a warm smile before getting up
"I'm gonna lay down for a bit, if something's wrong, just call me okay?"
Prue asked and as Piper nodded, she left the room to go to her own. But, as soon as she was outside, another dizzy-spell hit her and she froze at the front door. Closing her eyes. She backed on the door and fought against the feeling. She had to get to her room. She then finally recovered and began walking again, but ran straight into Penny.
"Sorry Grams"
Prue got absolutely no response. Immediately tears sprang to Prue's eyes. It were partly her emotions and partly just another sign for how exhausted she was. She closed her eyes to suppress the tears
"How long do you actually plan on not talking to me?"
Prue asked with a really hurt and cracked voice, but again didn't get any respond. Prue still had her eyes closed. She waited for a respond but instead just heard footsteps, which were going down the hall towards the stairs. Prue just stood there., her eyes still closed and she would have loved to start crying like a little kid. Right were she stood. But she didn't. She just took a calming breath and then suddenly felt arms around her. Strong arms. Arms that held her at the same time gentle and tight. Arms which wanted to support her. Prue shrugged together, at first scared, but then smelled the familiar scent of Andy's after shave. She opened her eyes and saw it really was Andy. She breathed relieved and relaxed in his arms. She then turned around and buried her face in his chest. She didn't know if she now could hold back the tears any longer. But it didn't matter, Andy was there now. Everything was alright, as long as Andy was there. As long she laid in his arms, which made her feel so much more protected and safe.
"Andrew!"
Penny hissed at him from the stairs. Andy pulled a bit away from Prue and went over to her.
"You better stay away from the manor for everyone's sake"
"No! I'm not! Prue and my daughter need me! And unlike you, I care for and about them!"
Prue was so tired of hearing them yell at each other, she closed her eyes once more. Trying to block the yelling out. Trying to ignore it, but it had no use. As she opened her eyes again, she again felt dizzy.
'My room... I need to get into my room, and everything is okay.'
She told herself and then tried turning around, finally going to her room, but she couldn't move. She again felt how she got dizzy. But this time it wasn't just another dizzy-spell. She felt dizzy. The whole room span around. And suddenly, her whole world went black.
"A... Andy"
She called lowly before collapsing at the spot Andy left her, unconscious falling towards the floor
