A/N: Just a little F.Y.I, Pandora finally told her cousin's who Collin really was, two days after the wedding. They were really angry but they eventually forgave her and all was well in the Halliwell Household. Any more questions? Any confusion? Feel free to ask me! I know, all this skipping is really confusing. But there is a point to it. So I hope everyone enjoys!

Three years later

The day she had dreamed of was finally coming true; a now twenty-one year old Phoenix was going to marry her Whitelighter boyfriend of five years, Alexander.

The staircase and sunroom were decorated in a similar fashion from Payton and Pandora's weddings. All the same guests were present. Pandora made her way to Alexander, unable to stop smiling. She reached her soon-to-be husband and Grams began the ceremony.

"We are gathered here today to unite two souls as one. Do you, Alexander Scott, and Phoenix Halliwell, join us here of your own free will to acknowledge the eternal bond shared by both of you?"

"I do," Phoenix and Alexander replied in unison, smiling giddily.

"Alexander, you may recite your vows," Grams said.

"Phoenix, you're the greatest. I love you with all my heart and I wouldn't trade this moment for anything. I promise you, I'll protect and love you every second of every day," Alexander promised.

"Phoenix," Grams said, smiling.

"Alexander, this is the happiest day of my life. Nothing will ever come between us. And if something does, it won't be anything we can't handle. I'll cherish every single moment we have together." Phoenix said, her voice barely a whisper

"Here before witnesses, Alexander and Phoenix have sworn their vows towards each other," Grams continued. "With this cord, I bind them to those vows." Magically, a cord loosely tied around their hands.

Smiling happily at each other, Phoenix and Alexander said in unison, "Heart to thee, body to thee, always and forever, so mote it be."

"So mote it be," Grams echoed.

"So mote it be," the rest of the room echoed, applauding.

Grinning, Phoenix and Collin looked into each other's eyes and kissed.

Two years later

Pandora screamed in agonizing pain as another contraction came and went. She cringed. "You always said childbirth sucked, but you never said it would be this painful!" she screamed at Payton, clutching Collin's hand so tightly, he was numb.

"I never said a home birth was fun either but you still insisted on having one, just like me," Payton countered. "Now push!"

"You push!" Pandora snarled, though she obediently did as she was told, pushing and gripping Collin's hand tighter than she had been before.

"Honey, I'm gonna need that hand when this is all over!" Collin yelped.

Pandora glared at him. "No you're not!" she snarled, screaming in pain once again.

"Okay, squeeze away then," Collin gulped, not wanting to anger the very bitter pregnant woman.

"Come on, sweetie, you need to push again," Payton urged her cousin. "Phoenix, dump this water and get me fresh please."

Phoenix nodded and disappeared into the next room. She changed the bloody water and came back, setting it down beside Payton.

Pandora screamed in pain as she pushed again.

"Okay, one more push and this baby is out. So come on, Pandora, one more big push," Payton said.

Pandora took several deep breaths before pushing for the last time. The pain was overwhelming but after she had finished pushing, she heard the soft cries of a little baby and her heart swelled with joy.

"It's a girl," Payton informed her sister, smiling as she had Collin cut the umbilical cord. She cleaned the baby up and wrapped her in the Halliwell baby Blanket and then took her to Pandora.

Pandora held her daughter in her arms, smiling down at her. "She's beautiful."

"She has your eyes," Collin added, grinning down at his daughter.

Payton tried desperately not to cry. She could remember having Presley - the pain, the joy of holding her. Presley would be nine years old by now and everyday, Payton missed her very much. But it had been for the best . . . at the time. No demon had attacked since Piper, Phoebe, and Paige had been killed. Though they couldn't understand why and knew it couldn't be for any good reason, it was nice being able to live a normal life. Now, though, Payton wished she hadn't given her daughter up. She could be anywhere.

"Payton." Payton blinked, crashing back to the real world. Pandora was calling her name.

"What is it?" she asked.

Pandora smiled. "We picked out a name, Collin and I. We chose it a couple months ago."

"That's great," Payton said, smiling. "What is it?"

"Paisley Phoebe Halliwell," Collin replied proudly, smiling happily.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Pandora stood in the kitchen, rocking Paisley and trying to get her to stop crying. It was two in the morning and she hadn't slept in three days.

"Baby keeping you up?" Payton asked from the doorway, walking in to the kitchen.

"Yeah," Pandora sighed, rocking Paisley still.

"Let me try?" Payton asked, holding her hands out. Pandora placed Paisley in her cousin's arms and Payton rocked her, humming softly. In seconds, Paisley had fallen asleep.

Pandora's eyes widened. "How'd you do that?"

"I don't know," Payton said softly. "It's something mom told me she did to me when I was little. She said it always got me to fall asleep."

"You'd be a great mom you know," Pandora informed Payton.

Payton frowned. "I know."

"Don't you miss her?" Pandora asked.

"Every single day," Payton answered, tears in her eyes.

"Do you-" Pandora began, but Payton cut her off. "Don't, Pandora, please," she snapped, handing Paisley back to her and stalking out of the kitchen, leaving Pandora staring after her.
