The next morning I wake up with my stomach throbbing. I lift up my shirt and look. Sure enough it buised. I stand up, and put on a sweatshirt and go downstairs.
"Morning" Prue says.
"Morning"I say
"Hey" Piper says. Pheobe waves her hand at me.
"Are you okay?" Prue asks me.
"Yeah, you look pained" Piper says looking up from her magazine.
"Look" I say lifting my shirt.
"Sory about that" Pheobe says.
"I'll get you a hot water bottle" Prue says getting up. She seems awake this morning.
"Grams went out with some friends, she wants me to teach you guys some basic stuff of wicca" Prue says coming back a minute later handing me a hot water bottle.
"Attic?" Piper asks. Prue snaps and the key appears in her hand.
"I have to learn to do that" Pheobe says.
"Yeah" I agree as we head upstairs. We settle on a couch and some chairs in the middle of the room. I put the bottle on my stomach and look around. This is first time I have ever been up here. Ther are boxes and old junk, and in the very center of the room is a big book with the same symbol on my necklace on it.
"This is the book of shadows. It has spells, and vanquishes, and almost all the information we will ever need." Prue says
"Vanquishes?" I ask.
"Hell is real, us wiccans call in the under world. There are whole other forms of life there called demons and warlocks. There is also a heiarchy. First upper level demons, then lower level demons, then warlocks, there are also evil witches" Prue says
"What are demons like?" Piper asks.
"You can take a look through the book later if you would like, but they are all difrent." Prue says
"So we vanquish the demons" I ask
"Basically" Prue says.
"Have you gotten your power yet?" Piper asks me.
"Don't you think if I had that I would be screaming with joy about it" I say. I can't believe I still haven't gotten it. I should get it today since everyone else got it so close together.
"Maybe you just aren't old enough." Prue says
"Or mature enough" Pheobe says. I hit her playfuly.
"Don't worry you'll get it" Piper says.I sure hope so.
"Is that it for now?"I ask.
"Yeah, for now. We'll do more once you get your power." Prue says.I nodd and head downstairs. They all follow me except Pheobe who stays inside the attic to look through the book.
The next morning I follow my usual rutine and go downstairs. All my sisters are already down their eating breakfast and reading magazines.
"Good Morning" Prue says
"Not really" I say. I still haven't gotten my power. I think I'll give up.
"Wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?" Piper asks.
"So what do you want to do today?" Prue asks us.
"See Cole" Pheobe says.Then gets a wierd look on her face.
"I mean see Colateral, the movie" Pheobe says
"Nice cover..not" Piper says
"Paige, did you read my diary?" Pheobe asks me.
"I already lied to you about this. Yes I read part of it" I say. I put my hand over my mout. Why did I just admit to that.
"I knew it. I never trusted you." Pheobe says
"Why don't you trust me?" I ask
"Because you are just a kid" Pheobe says
"Guys keep arguing it's entertaining" Prue says then puts a wierd look on her face.
"Pheobe did you cast the truth spell?" Prue asks.
"N..yes" Pheobe says
"Why?" Prue says
"Cause I wanted to know if Paige was telling me the truth" Pheobe says
"How long does this last?" I ask.
"Twenty four hours" Pheobe says
"Come on guys, how hard can it be not lying for twenty four hours" Piper says.
"Come on we'll go shopping. Get dressed." Prue says.
"Good" I say
"You like shopping?" Prue asks.
"No, but I want new clothes, and maybe if I dress sexier I can get Glen to pay more atention to me like what Pheobe said" I blurt out.
"You took what I said seriously?" Pheobe asks. She wasn't suposed to know but I take almost everything she says seriously. I dont respond.
"Does this make my hips look big?" Pheobe asks me after putting on a pair of jeans.
"Yes, it makes you look disproportional" I say. She looks shocked, then changes.
"What do you think of me?" I ask curious to see what she honestly thinks.
"I wish I was as skinny as you, I think you are just a kid, and I think if you were to wear that padded bra that I got you, you could look half decent, and much less like an 11 year old boy" Pheobe says
"How could you ask me that?" she says
"I was curious" I say
"Do you really think I'm a slut?" she asks me.
"I don't know you are a very private person." I say. Thank god I didn't say something stupid like she was a slut.
"Are you guys ready?" Prue asks.
"One second" I yell.
"Can you hand me a pair of pants" I ask Pheobe
"Here" she throws me a pair of black pants. I put them on.
"I think you grew from last time we went shopping" Pheobe says
"I noticed that, but I didn't want to tell you because I would rather have to sit through The Notebook eight times that go shopping again for me" I say. The notebook is Pheobe's favorite movie, but its too sappy for me.
"I love that move, but what I love most about it is how much you hate it. Thats why I always insist on watching it." Pheobe says. I shake my head at her.
"Guys come on! I'm impatiant" Prue yells from downstairs. we head down the stairs and all ge into the car.
"Why don't I drive" Piper offers.
"Because we want to live" I say
"Hey!" Piper yelps, "I don't drive that badly"
"Yeah, you do" Prue says putting the key into the ignition and heading off.
