Part Eight
Making her way to her sisters, she took a seat on the other side of Phoebe, across Prue and Piper. She knew she was going to be asked millions of questions as to why she would keep such a secret to her sisters. She knew that if she told them the truth now, Mike would make her pay or even worse one of her sisters, Prue most likely. She just couldn't stop thinking as to what he was getting at, 'Is this fun to him……. to make someone's life miserable? Why payback, I never did anything to him to start the shit I had to deal with as a child.' Paige just couldn't understand, but she was soon pulled out of her thoughts.
"Paige…. Paige…" Phoebe continued to call out waving her hands in front of Paige's face.
Shacking her head, "Oh I'm sorry I was just thinking of something." Pulling a smile across her face.
Piper look up at Paige, something deep down to her didn't feel right the why she's has been acting, but decided to ignore it. "So how's the birthday girl? Did you and Glenn have a good time?"
"Yeah, he took me to the beach and had a picnic out on the sand. It was sweet of him, we just laid back all afternoon talking about good old times."
Phoebe became all excited, "Aww that's great, sounds like you had a lovely time. You and Glenn are such a cute couple." She stood up from her seat, "Well since that, I'm going to go get you another drink birthday girl." But soon as that was said pain shot through her side.
Prue quickly got up, "Phoebe sit down what did we tell you earlier, your not going anywhere or doing anything for that matter, till we figure out what's wrong with you tomorrow."
Phoebe just stuck out her tongue as she covered her side with her hand, trying to hind the pain going through her. Prue took the glasses and had the bartender bring a new around for them all. "Don't give me that look Phoeb's, I know your hurting."
Paige concerned as she saw her sisters face, "You going to be okay, you never told me you been still hurting."
"Paige I'm fine and right now it's your birthday, so lets enjoy the fun." Giving her younger sis a smile.
"Yep it is Paige's birthday and I think we should make a toast." Piper said as everyone picked up there full glasses and raised them in the air. "To Paige, as we all hope you have a great birthday and for the years to come, may all your wishes this year and every year come true." Everyone happily agreed as they hit each others glasses, with Paige hoping that the last comment to the toast would give her some hope.
"Thanks everyone, I still cant believe I'm here with you guy's right now, life's changed so much." She was so happy that moment a tear slide down her cheek, but quickly wiped it away.
"Hey Paige I was meaning to ask you about Mike, how come you never mentioned him before to us?" Asked Prue.
She had a chill go through her hearing the name Mike, but knew it would becoming. "I just never really thought about it that much, I only knew him for a little while before the Mathews. So didn't seem like something to bring up that's all." Fiddling with her bracelet on her arm that her sisters got her for one of her birthday presents. It had little pretty objects that hung off of it like, a letter P for all their names, picture of there mother, and some others that Phoebe added because she thought all the ones in the store were perfect.
Piper stepped in before Prue could, "Paige, we love you and want to know everything that went on in your life, the ones that we missed together."
"True, even if you think it's not important, it's important to us." Phoebe smiles.
"Alright, I'll try to tell you guy's more about my past next time." All she knew was it wasn't going to be all of it.
As on cue all the men made there way back to the sisters. Glen came up around and wrapped Paige in a warm hug, "You enjoying the party Paige?"
Mike kept his gaze on Paige, "Yeah it's great guy's, thanks so much I don't know what to say….."
"It's alright we had fun, got to know Mike more. I never knew he was in the Army, he was telling us some pretty interesting stories when he was stationed in Germany." Said Andy with Prue content on his lap.
Paige look up at Mike, knowing full well what he was thinking, so she decided to not say what she really wanted, "Glad you guy's got along."
"Well Andy, Glenn, Leo and gals I must be going now, it was a pleasure meeting you all. I hope to see you guy's again, if Paige invites me for another time." Giving her a big smile, "Can I have a hug before I go, I miss you so much we need to do this more often!"
She was ready to hurl chunks at the moment, how dare he come and mess my life up and play Mr. Goody to shoes with the family. He had no right, the only thing holding her back from punching his lights out was the fact he threaten her and her family. "Sure, since your leaving and all."
Getting out of Glenn's hold she hesitantly went over to Mike and embrace the monster that he was, pretending the love she was suppose to show for him. Mike quickly rapped his arms around her in a big hug as he slipped a small piece of paper in her right hand away from everyone's view. Feeling the paper being placed in her hand she immediately stuck it in her shirt. "Well I got to be off now." Smiling with a grin that Paige knew trouble would soon rise from hell sooner or later.
