Part 3

After being released from the hospital Phoebe was back to school. Her life was back to normal, accept that she had some homework to catch up on.

After her almost endless first schoolday she was taking her stuff out from her locker when she felt a hand taking a strong grip around her neck. Managing to turn around she saw that it was Bruce. She was scared when he pinned her against the lockers, just like he had done with Gary.The corridor was empty, everybody was on their way home.

"Don't you dare telling on me again Halliwell!" he said loudly.

"What do you mean, telling on you?"

"You told my parents about what happened to Gary, I know you did!"

"I didn't, I promise!" Phoebe squirmed trying to get out of his grip.

"If you don't give me your lunch money every day, I will tell your grandmother that you stole my wallet and thats why I beat you" Bruce threatened.

" I didnt steal your wallet!"

" Do you think she will belive you?" Bruce let her go and disapeared around the corner. Phoebe stood up, defeated, and started to walk home. She knew her grandmother would never believe her.

Walking up the steps to the manor, she could hear her sisters and grams laughing together.

"Phoebe, your late" Piper called from the kitchen.

"Sorry" Phoebe tried to walk quietly up the stairs.

"Dinners ready soon"

"I,m not hungry Piper"

"Fine, then go do your homework"

Phoebe went to the bathroom and took a razor. She silently went back to her room and pressed the razor against her wrist.

Who says childhood is easy?
