Chapter 11: Don't Give Up
Disclaimer: I do not own Charmed or any of the Characters
Kyle watched Paige from above, his heart breaking every time he sensed she was about to give up. He silently urged her to keep going and not give up. But he felt her pain. Not just because he was a Whitelighter, but because he loved her. That was why he was determined to get back to her. Nothing was going to stand in his way. Paige needed him and he needed her. That was why he stood there waiting to speak to the Elders. He silently rehearsed his speech he would deliver about why he should be able to go back to Paige. They had to understand; he would make them.
"Kyle," an Elder dressed in all white said as he emerged from behind Kyle.
Kyle turned to face the Elder. "Thank you for meeting with me," he said. He held out his hand, but he wasn't really sure if shaking an Elder's hand was appropriate. He still hadn't learned Elder ettiquette yet.
"What can I do for you today?" the Elder asked.
Kyle took a deep breath before answering. "Well as you know, Paige Matthews and I had a relationship before I was made a Whitelighter. As you also know, she was in a horrible accident recently. In the accident, she lost her eyesight."
"What are you getting at?" the Elder asked.
"Look, I know it's not your policy to allow Witches and Whitelighter to have relationships, but what Paige and I have is really special. We really do love one another, and I know how you made an exception with Leo and Piper."
"And you want us to make an exception for you and Paige, correct?" the Elder asked.
"Yes. If you could please just find it in your heart to do this for us I would appreciate it so much," Kyle said.
"Believe me, I would like nothing more than to see two people in love and together, but unfortunately it is not possible at this time."
"Why?" Kyle asked. "Why could it be done for Leo and not for me?"
"Leo was a Whitelighter for quite some time before he was assigned to the Charmed Ones. You have just become a Whitelighter. If we let you go back to San Francisco, people would notice. No one recognized Leo because he had been dead for years," the Elder explained.
"This is a bunch of crap!" Kyle exclaimed. "Paige is hurting and she needs me more now than ever. There has to be some way that you can let me be with her."
"I'm sorry, it can't happen."
At this point Kyle didn't care if he was being disrespectful or not. "Then I don't want any part of this Whitelighter crap that you glorified to me. What good am I if I can't even help the person I love more than anything in the world?" He put his head in his hands and then looked up one last time, "Please. There has to be some way."
The Elder sighed and shook his head. "There is one way, but I can't do it alone. All the Elders have to be in agreement."
"What is it?" Kyle asked.
"We don't do this often, but there is a memory dust we can use on the people who knew you, making it seem like you never died. They will not remember anything that has to do with your death."
"Then why don't you just do it?"
"As I said, the Elders don't like to us the dust very often because there is always the chance that it won't work properly and our magic will be exposed."
"Sir, please, we have to try. Paige needs me."
The Elder placed his hand on Kyle's shoulder, "I'll do everything I can to convince them. I'll be in touch."
With that the Elder was gone and Kyle once again looked down upon a now sleeping Paige. "Hang on Baby, I'll be home soon," he whispered and prayed that it would be true.
A/N: I know that was kind of short, but I'll update again soon. I have some ideas for this story, but let me know what ya'll want to see happen. Thanks!
