'Okay, you ready?' Phoebe asked. Paige nodded.
'Here goes.' Phoebe took a deep breath, and looked to the ceiling ' Leo! Get Piper and get in here!'
A moment later, two streams of white and blue lights appeared into the room, and formed into Piper and Leo.
'What? What is it? Is it Wyatt?' Piper asked frantically.
'Wyatt is fine, everything is fine' Paige said,
'Then what's up?' Leo asked. Piper was bent over Wyatt's crib and put him in her arms.
'Okay, that letter' Phoebe said gesturing to the letter on the bed ' Will explain all. Have fun!' Phoebe and Paige quickly escaped the room, before any questions could be asked.
Once the door was shut, Paige took the sheet of paper out of her pocket. It was the same piece as was in her box the night before. Phoebe and Paige placed a hand on the doorframe and read the words aloud in unison:
'Spirits from the other side
Protect this room
Hear our cries.
Guard them from orbs and demons
So they can portray their true feelings.'
The door and frame glowed then went back to normal.
'I hope this works' Paige said
Phoebe nodded. 'The monitor!' Phoebe and Paige bounded down the stairs to listen in on the important conversation.

A giant popcorn bowl sat on the coffee table. Some of the contents had spilled out on to the wooden surface. A bottle of wine, half full, stood in reaching distance of Phoebe, who sat curled up on the couch intently watching the small baby monitor, as if it made her hear the chatter emitting the device better. Paige sat on the large overstuffed chair taking a sip of chamomile tea.
It had been over an hour since they had executed their plan. Piper and Leo were magically locked in her room, forced to talk and rationalise.
'I'm so gonna vanquish their sisterly asses when I get out of here'
'Piper, they're only trying to help us' Leo reassured, taking Wyatt from her arms.
'There is nothing to help, Leo'
'They must think there is if they've done this. And, to be truthful so do I' Leo explained. Silence.
'Is this about the divorce?'
'Yes it's about the divorce, Piper! Deep down, I know you don't want to do this. I know you still love me' Leo retaliated.
Piper sat down on the bedroom couch. Holding her head in her hands, 'Ill always love you Leo. We've been through too much for me not too. But, once again, the Charmed Ones have ruined our chances of a proper family life. I don't want Wyatt growing up in traumatic surroundings, I don't want him to feel responsible for his mom and dad's failing marriage-' Leo cut her off.
'Our marriage would only be failing if we gave in. We can work it out. We always have done before.'
'Exactly. We've had to work at our marriage all the time. I'm sick of having to work at it.'
'Piper, marriage means work. It does for everybody. Sure, our marriage is a little different to everybody else's-'
'A little?' Piper scoffed
'Yes a little. As long as we love each other, that is all that matters.'
'It's not that simple'
'Why not?'
'Because you're a Whitelighter, sorry and Elder, and I'm a witch. It doesn't get more complicated than that!' Piper rose and tried to open the door again with no luck. She could feel herself getting more and more annoyed. Why couldn't he realise that it was just too hard?
Putting Wyatt back into the play-crib, Leo walked over to Piper and held her by the shoulders. 'We could do it, Piper. We could work it out. We have to at least try, for Wyatt's sake.' He led her over to the crib. 'For him'
