AN: Oh, I'm American, so I am ecstatic now! Carly Patterson and Paul Hamm won gold in the all-around gymnastics in the Olympics, we won silver in gymnastics for both men and women, and we have both 200 freestyle relay golds! Yay! Also, I am SO happy South Africa won the men's 100 freestyle relay! My dad's from there, so my entire family was celebrating! Yay! I love the Olympics! I suck at sports, but I don't mind watching them! Yay! Also, didn't Jodi Henri win a gold in a relay? I think she did, and she did a great job. Also, congrats to all the other gold medal winners! They all rock!
CharmedMillie - Thanks, and thanks, and thanks! tee hee.
piperleo4eva - I'm thinking I will end up bringing magic in... eventually. It will slowly come in to play. I'll probably end up writing more than just two stories about this group... I've just really fallen in love with the characters and time. I love writing, and reading, fics with teens! Thanks for the review! Note: I said slowly, and I mean slowly. It probably won't be big in this fic.
winter blaze - You are not my only reviewer curious about that house. Yes, that house will come in to play more in the story. Oh, and Piper grabbed Kit. I really didn't put that in there, but Kit is just a kitten now, so they aren't really letting her walk around a lot.
charmedeva - Thanks, and yeah, I did make her sound a bit more witchy, but witches are good. Yes, they very much are. p3charmed4eva - Thanks!
C.C. McKenna - Yup, that is Piper and Phoebe, definitely. Thanks for the review!
Gryffindor620 - So would I, so would I. But, they love their little sisters too much, so they'll just be mad at them for a bit... but, of course, Piper can't stay mad at anyone for long... and Prue only over huge things.
Shann51 - Thanks!
peanut2lb - Yes, I knew I would succeed in that! What is with that house anyway? I know! Teehee... Anyway, thanks!
Now, the jiggy-wit-it chapter 10...

"You ring it."
Prue and Piper were standing on the doorstep to the Manor, arguing about who would ring the doorbell, as neither really wanted to explain what had happened with the rental car to Grams. "I can't ring it, Prue. I'm holding Kit!" Piper said, indicating the small kitten curled up in the palm of her left hand. "Piper, that kitten is so small, you have a free hand. Ring it." "No! I... think that Kit is afraid of doorbells." Piper tried quickly, hiding Kit in the depths of her jacket. Prue just stared at her like she was insane. "Anyway, I have one free hand, you have two. You can ring it!" she said, and stepped away from the door. "Besides, you're closer to it!" she pointed out. "Fine." Prue said, and moved her finger towards the little button. She figured that she couldn't win the fight with Piper's danger-avoidance skills, so she gave in. She pressed it, and they could hear a 'ding-dong' resounding throughout their house.
Immediately, Paige opened the door. "Piper! Prue!" she shouted happily. "Pheebs, Grams! They're here!" she shouted back into the Manor. She then grabbed both of their hands, and pulled them into the conservatory, where Phoebe and Grams were waiting. "Prudence, Piper, where were you two?" Grams asked right after they sat down. "Didn't Phoebe tell you?" Prue asked, looking at her grandmother queerly. "She said that you played a joke on her, and then you hadn't come home." Grams said sternly, standing up to tower over the two on the couch. Paige moved over to join Phoebe in the chair, not wanting to be in Grams' sight when she was angry. "Well, she wasn't telling the truth." Prue said, glaring daggers at Phoebe.
"Wait, but I thought..." Phoebe said, her eyes widening. "Then, you really were in a car accident!" she said. "Yes, Phoebe, where do you think I got this bump on my head?" Piper asked, indicating the bump on the right side of her head, right above her forehead. "Oh my God!" Phoebe exclaimed, and she and Paige ran over to their older sisters. They both began inspecting them for injuries. Grams suddenly realized something. "Where are all your things, darlings?" she asked, noticing that they had no baggage. "They would be in the rental car." Piper stated. "Which is now a burned clump on the side of a road." Prue added. Piper nodded in agreement.
"Wait, you called me last night, saying you were in a car wreck." Phoebe said. "But, where did you spend the night?" Prue and Piper looked at each other, not wanting to mention the house quite yet. "We had to spend the night on the ground." Prue said, nudging Piper subtly. "Yes." Piper added, getting Prue's point. "And let me tell you, that really doesn't do good for backs." Piper said, rubbing her 'sore' back.
As Piper did so, a meow came from within her jacket. She and Prue glanced at each other and grimaced. "Piper, darling, what do you have in your jacket?" Grams asked suspiciously, noticing her two eldest granddaughter's looks. Piper guiltily reached into her jacket, and pulled out Kit. Phoebe and Paige's eyes lit up. "Kitty!" they squealed, and immediately reached forward to pet the small kitten. "Can we keep it?" Paige asked, looking at her grandmother with puppy dog eyes. "Can we keep HER?" Piper corrected, imitating Paige's look. Phoebe and Prue did the same thing.
Grams, caving under the looks in her girls eyes, said "Okay, darlings, you can keep the cat." "YAY!" they all squealed, and began cooing over Kit. "What's her name?" Paige asked Piper, knowing that she would have chosen a name already. "Kit." Piper said. "Oh, cool, like a Kit Kat! A little play on words!" Phoebe said, giggling.
"Um... Piper. I feel like spending some quality time with our sisters, don't you. I think we should spend the entire afternoon with them. Out of the house. Don't you?" Prue asked, opening her eyes very wide. Piper immediately caught on to what her older sister was saying. "Um, yeah, I do. Phoebe, Paige, do you want to go out with Prue and I?" Piper asked, winking. Phoebe and Paige, though they had no idea what their older sister was hinting at, nodded their heads. They were curious to Prue and Piper's plan. "Darlings, if you think I'm going to let you drive after getting in an accident..." Grams started, but Prue interrupted her. "Oh, Grams, lightening hit the car then, and it's clear skies now. And Piper can drive. I was driving." Prue said, getting up. "Is our car back?" Piper asked. "Yes, darling, I picked it up last night. But..." Grams started, but Piper had already grabbed the keys and was halfway out the door. "We'll be home by six!" Prue shouted as she took Phoebe and Paige outside.
"Children these days." Grams muttered, shaking her head as she heard the front door close. She turned to see the little kitten that she had just agreed to keeping. "You're a scrawny little thing, aren't you?" she asked, picking up the kitten. Something shiny then caught her eye. She grabbed the tag on the cat's red collar, and gasped in surprise. On it, was a picture of the triquetra, the symbol for the power of three. Grams looked into Kit's eyes, and Kit winked. Grams smiled. She was now very happy that she had agreed to keeping this 'kitten'.

AN: Okay, I'm so sorry for this short chapter! But, if I hadn't cut it off here, I would have had WAY too long of a chapter. But, now the next chapter will just be a really long chapter, instead of this being a really, really long chapter. Yup, yup. Also, just to let you know, there was no house originally, I just had a dream that there was a house in this story, and I figured everything out. I dedicate all the chapters with the house to my personal Sandman! Oh, before I forget, this is after a song by U2!
