The next few weeks go bye in a slow blur. Nothing happens. the same routine school- home- sleep, and see Glen or Leo or Cindy on the weekends.

"Paige, Phone!" Prue calls me.

"Hello" I say

"Hi, it's Ron from math." Ron says

"Hi" I say. It's wierd that hes calling me we almost never talk.

"I'm having an open party at my house this weekend, feel free to invite your friends" He says. Then he gives me his address, and we hang up. Finally something intresting is going on here.

"What's that all about?" Piper asks me.

"A party"I say

"Finaly somone is doing something, I wish more would go on around here" Piper says

"I know!" I agree.

"Pheobe, comercial is over. Oprahs back" Piper yells.

"Yes!" Pheobe says jumping onto the couch from the other room.

"Do you guys want to go to the party, its open" I say

"Shhh!" Pheobe shushes me. I roll my eyes at her.

"Ron's party, yeah his brotherinvited me last weekend" Piper says

"So are you going?" I ask

"Of coarse, Pheobe is too" Piper says. I nodd and go upstairs. I wonder if Prue is going.

"Prue!" I call. Then I notice she is in the bathroom so I go into my room to wait for her. A few minutes pass and she isn't back so I knock on the door. It opens and Prue is throwing up.

"Oh my god are you okay?" I ask

"Lovely" Prue says flushing the toilet and wiping her face.

"Want me to call Grams?" I offer.

"No, I can take care of myself" Prue says splashing her face with water.

"Whats wrong?" I ask

"Nothing" she says and pushes past me into her room. She locks the door. It's not fair she gets a lock. Then again I'd hate to walk in on her doing something.

"Paige come down here, Oprah's hving a real revelation!" Pheobe calls to I go back downstairs.

The next day at school I tell all my friends about the party as soon as the bell rings. Then I rush out to meet Prue in the parking lot.

"Sory I'm a few minutes late" I say

"Its okay I'm a week and a half late" she mutters

"Huh?" I ask. What is that suposed to mean?

"Nothing" she says, and we drive home.

"Are you going to the party?" I ask.

"Yeah, that kid Ron has an older brother in my grade who invited me, and like half the school" Prue says

"I think it'll be fun" I say

"I guess. It always gets broken up a few hours after it starts though. he Bouchelli Boys do it every year" Prue says

"Whatever, I'm still excited" I say.


That night as I sit in bed it dawns on me what Prue meant. She's pregnant. I wonder if she would get rid of her baby. I bet she would. She doesn't even realize that the baby has fealing too, that it will grow up to be a real person who needs parents. Maybe she would even get an abortion. Imagine if Sam and my mom did that. I wouldn't even be here. Wait, if Prue getting pregnant is kind of like a mistake, then am I a mistake?

Am I just a burdon on the family? I always loved having a big famly, but now that I think of it I bet mom didn't plan on it. I shouldn't even be alive.

The next morning Pheobe wakes me up.

"You don't look so good" she says

"I didn't sleep very well" I say feeling really low. What if I am a mistake?

"Maybe you have what Prue has, she is staying home today. You should too" Pheobe says

"Yeah, I think I will" I say closing my eyes and drifting back to sleep. When I wake up again I go downstairs. Prue is at the table drinking tea.

"Hey" she says to me. I glare up at her.

"Bad mood?" she asks

"I know all about you" I say angrily. How could she be so low as to bring a child into the world that she is just planning on abandoning.

"I would hope so after living with me for thirteen years" she says taken back at my bluntness.

"Don't try to pretend like nothings going on. You are a really bad person" I say almost crying. Prue loks as if she is going to cry.

"Look I'll figure out something to do. Besides I'm not even sure if I really am.." she starts to trail off.

"Oh please, your just like Sam" I yell at her and run upstairs.
