Part 2

Paige Halliwell orbed into her room. The room she shared with her fiancé Glenn, however he wasn't in bed. By her watch it was around 3 am. Maybe he'd stayed behind late to help out at P4.

She considered just going straight to bed but she thought her sisters would prefer she woke them up just to tell them she was home. She felt horrible about not telling them where she was going but she just needed a few hours completely alone to think. It'd only been a day so they wouldn't be that annoyed.

Walking into the next room it was Piper's. She slowly opened the door in case there was something going on she wasn't meant to see. To her surprise there was no one there either. She was starting to get a little spooked.

Next door she began to open slowly as well but this time she saw Phoebe sitting at her desk just staring back at her.

"Hey. I was starting to think this was the twilight zone or som-"

Phoebe tackling her in a hug causing them to crash ungracefully to the floor cut off Paige.

"Pheebs, what's wrong?" Paige asked seriously scared something had happened.

Phoebe reluctantly pushed herself off Paige. She didn't know what to ask first. There were so many questions. She stroked her sister's cheek. "Are you ok?"

Paige made her 'keep the crazy people happy' face. "Yah huh. Are you ok? You're acting kind of... insane."

Phoebe frowned. "It's been over 2 months. I can't be overly happy to see you?"

"Two months?? Since what? I saw you yesterday, Pheebs. Did you hit your head, sweetie?" Paige asked seriously as she looked for some kind of obvious wound.

"What? No. Paige, you've been gone for two months. Since you woke up from the demon thing. We haven't been able to find you anywhere." Phoebe explained as she tried to keep her confusion to a minimum.

Paige sat there with her mouth agape before laughing. "Good one. I'm not gonna fall for that. Where do you get the energy to prank people at 3?"

Phoebe thought for a second about how likely it was she had imagined the whole thing. Then she remembered what they'd been through and knew she hadn't. "Paige, I haven't seen you in over two months, none of us have. We've had the entire SFPD on alert; we've been to morgue's every other day. We've called everyone you've ever known, we scryed for you for a month straight. We even searched the underworld once."

Paige was speechless. She was sure she had only been gone for a day. Now Phoebe explained what they'd all been through she felt horrible.

"Where were you?" Phoebe asked tearfully. She was just so thankfully Paige was back home, safe.

"I was 'up there'." Before she could continue Phoebe interrupted.

"You never knew time moves a lot faster 'up there'?" She asked.

"No! It moves faster?"

"Yeah. When Piper first went up she thought she was gone a day... it was a couple of months." Phoebe explained.

Paige sighed. "I never knew."

Phoebe pulled her into another, less bone shattering hug. "I'm just glad your back. We should go tell Prue and Piper."

Paige nodded, "Yeah. Piper's not in her room and Glenn wasn't in ours."

Phoebe helped her sister up. "I heard Piper get up earlier. Prue's probably down there too."

Paige and Phoebe made their way down stairs, Paige knowing that her sisters not sleeping was down to her stupid screw up.

Paige found herself pummelled by Piper's bear hug just as Phoebe's. This time she understood the ferocity and hugged back trying to provide some comfort.

Piper had a thousand and one questions in hr mind but she didn't ask any yet she just enjoyed knowing Paige was fine and in her arms.

Prue was the only one not involved in the celebratory hugging. She stood, paralysed in place in the living where she'd first spotted Paige.

After a few minutes Paige was released from her older sisters hugs. It was then she fully realised the rather large belly Piper was sporting. It was then she accept that she really had been gone so long.

Piper was having a super hard time stopping herself from sobbing but lately she had that problem a lot, pregnancy hormones were driving her insane but when Paige looked at her and then back down to the bump in awe she happily let the tears trail down her face. Paige carefully laid a hand on her belly then kneeled down and said hello to her little niece.

Paige had a little conversation with her soon to be baby neice then stood up and gave Piper another hug. When she pulled back she found Prue staring at her and gave her a small smile. Then Prue was up in her face.

"Where the hell have you been?!" She shouted and continued without waiting for an answer. "What the fuck were you thinking?! Do you know how worried we've been?! You can't just take off for two months and let me think you're dead!!" Prue finished as she stood there breathing hard, face red and the anger in her eyes turning into tears.

Paige could see that Prue had just let her anger take over because Paige had them so worried for so long. Prue's word's hurt but they were allowed considering .She gently took her sister's hand, all the way keeping eye contact.

Prue gave in to her emotions and pulled the youngest into the biggest hug. She couldn't contain her tears any longer as she cried into Paige's shoulder. After a few minutes she collected herself and pulled away.

Piper took her turn to speak. "Your not off the hook yet, Missy. You have some explaining to do."
