Phoebe lay in bed. She wasn't asleep but she could still not face the thought of getting up. Today was the day that Paige would start her job as Cole's whitelighter.
It was so unfair! She punched her pillow with frustration. Why? She had spent the last five years trying to forget Cole, and now she would have to face a reminder of him every day for the rest of her life. Would she never be able to escape him? She just wanted to be able to get on with her life!
She heard raised voices coming from downstairs. She sat up, walked over to the door, and opened very quietly. She heard Piper talking.
"Oh come on Paige! Isn't it obvious! She's jealous! I know she's supposed to be over him now, but she's obviously not. We're not allowed to mention Cole's name, Michelle Branch is banned form the house and I can't remember the last time she went on a date. And now you get to see Cole all the time, where as she's not even allowed to mention his name in case we figure out that she still has feelings for him!"
Phoebe closed the door again.
Darn. And she'd thought she'd gotten away with it.
When Paige reappeared, she was in a huge circular room, with walls such a bright white it hurt her eyes. Gradually, she got used to the light, and eventually her eyes made out about 20 men and women in a circle around her. Leo wasn't with her.
The man directly in front of her spoke. "Paige Mathews, of the Halliwell clan, you have been summoned here to receive you briefing on your new charge, Cole Benjamin Turner. We have information regarding him that you will need in the months ahead. First of all . . ." then he stopped and looked inquiringly at Paige, who was loudly clearing her throat. "You have something to say?"
"Well, yes" said Paige. "I don't mean to be rude or anything, but I already know pretty much everything there is to know about him. And did you do something wrong? Its just Leo seemed pretty mad when I saw him a minute ago."
The man looked a bit sheepish. "Well, as he is your white lighter, we thought he deserved to know the information that we are about to tell you just as much as you do. He wasn't very happy about it. To be honest, he quite told us off. Never knew he had it in him".
"And you do not 'know' Cole. You are blinded by your hate towards him. You must overcome that" added a woman with long red hair behind her.
But Paige was still concentrating on the man in font of her. "What do you mean 'told you off?' You mean he yelled at you?" she said with an amazed look on her face.
"Yes. He really was quite angry with us. Said something about being disgraces to the name of good."
"But what could you have told him that would have made him that mad? I mean, he doesn't get angry very easily" said Paige looking confused.
"We're trying to tell you! But you keep interrupting!" said the man, looking exasperated. "Well, anyway, here it is. It all starts with . . ..
Dun dun dun! Review me quick, or I won't tell you what the secret is! Aren't I evil! Mwa ha ha ha ha !
Remember: reviewers get a virtual monkey and a lifetime supply of virtual bananas! And their very own pet Cole to grow in a jar!
