Chapter 6

The next morning Piper woke up to see an empty space beside her. She looked at the clock and it said 9:00 AM. She assumed Leo was down stairs so she got up and headed down stairs. She saw an empty kitchen and a note attached to a tray of food.

'Sorry Honey had to go into work. The kids are coming back at 10:00. Love Leo.'

She sighed. She decided to go get dressed as the kids were coming soon and she would eat the breakfast later. She went upstairs and got into the shower. As she was washing her hair she put her hands on her stomach. She pushed her stomach out to make herself look pregnant and she caressed it. She smiled. She liked the look. She washed her hair and got out of the shower and got dressed. Just as she touched the last step on the stairs the door opened and Charlotte ran in followed by her brother and sister and her two cousins.

'I'm going to get you.' Hallie shouted. She was chasing her little cousin and Kym, Noah and Jack were helping.

Piper couldn't help but smile. She looked over to the door and Phoebe and Prue walked in carrying the kids' bags.

'Here let me carry it Prue.' Phoebe said.

'I can do it.' Prue said.

A confused look appeared on Piper's face but then she shook it off. 'Hey! Thanks for bringing them back.'

'No probs!' Phoebe said. 'Don't push Jack!' She shouted.

'Sorry Mom.' Jack shouted back.

'Aow!' Kym shouted.

'Stop nipping Noah.' Piper shouted.

'Okay!' Noah shouted back.

'How did you know he was nipping her, your back was turned to them.' Prue said.

'I just know.' Piper said and smiled.

'Flip me. You're good.' Prue said.

'I know.' She smiled, 'Ok well let's go sit down.' They headed into the lounge and sat down.

'Here Prue here's a pillow.' Phoebe said handing her a pillow.

'Thanks but I'm ok.' She said giving it back.

'Sorry I just want you to be comfortable.' Phoebe said.

'Ok what is going on with you two?' Piper asked.

'Well Andy has been back in town for a few months as you know and well...' Prue smiled.

'Is there more to that or are you just going to leave me hanging?' Piper asked.

'Well I'm pregnant.' She smiled.

Piper's face fell. 'Oh.' She plastered a fake smile on her face. 'Congratulations!' She got up and hugged her. 'I'm going to be an aunt again!'

Phoebe had noticed Piper's facial expression and she made a self note to go talk to her later about it.

'Come join Pheebs.' Piper said opening her arm for her to join.

The kids ran in and saw them all hugging again. 'What's going on?' Kym asked.

'Do they know?' Piper asked. Prue shook her head. 'Shall I tell them?' Prue nodded. 'Well um...Hallie your mommy is going to have a baby. Noah, Kym, Lottie and Jack you're going to have a new baby cousin.

'Yay!' Charlotte said and she ran over to them. 'Make it a boy!'

'Aww baby you can't chose if it's going to be a boy or girl.' Piper said lifting her up.

'Oh, well I want a brother then mommy! Get me one!' Charlotte said.

Piper looked at Charlotte 'Um...no baby we can't'

'Why not? Hallie is getting a brother so why can't I have one?' Charlotte asked cocking her head.

'You just can't ok.' Piper said angering rising in her voice.

Charlotte, taken aback by her mom's outburst, just nodded.

'Good now go and play.' She set her down and the children all ran off. 'Ok tea anyone?'

'Um...yes please.' Prue said. Phoebe nodded and Piper left the room. 'Um...what is wrong with her?'

'I don't know Prue but I'm going to find out.' Phoebe said and she stood up and walked off like a woman on a mission.

Piper was pouring the tea into cups when she heard footsteps. 'Charlotte go back and play and no you can't have a brother.' She said.

'Well if she can't have a brother can I have a word?' Phoebe asked.

Piper tuned round. 'Phoebe, sorry I thought you were Charlotte. Do you want something other than tea?'

'Yes, a word.' Phoebe said and she sat down at the table.

'What do you mean?' Piper asked.

'Well let's just say I'm very good at reading people and your reaction to Prue's news wasn't exactly great.'

'What. What do you mean?' Piper asked. She sat down at the table.

'Well when she told you the news you had this huge fake smile plastered on your face. What was that all about?'

Piper looked at her. 'Nothing I'm happy for her honest.' She lied.

'Piper...look I'm no shrink but are you okay?' Phoebe asked putting her hand on her sisters hand.

'Me? I'm fine! Yeah fine!' She said as she stood up. 'Well lets not let this get cold or Prue will kill me!' She got the tea and went back into the lounge. Phoebe just watched her leave and then shook her head.

A few hours later Prue and co. were leaving.

'Bye honey!' Piper said to Prue. 'And again congratulations! Bye-Bye baby!' Piper said as she kissed Prue's still small stomach.

'Thank you!' Prue said. 'Now get off!'

'Ok sorry.' Piper said and she stood back. 'Bye Pheebs.'

'Bye.' Phoebe said and they left. Piper looked around to see Kym, Noah and Charlotte sleeping on the sofa beside one another. She smiled at the sight. She went over to them and placed a blanket over them. 'My angels.'

Ok end of that chapter! Next chapter is more on Piper's yearnings if you get what I mean!
