A/N: READ THIS: This will be the last chapter of PART 2. CHAPTER 42 will begin PART 3, which is the second, and last, spin-off. After that (Which will be twenty chapters, as Parts 1 and 2 were) I will be completing my other fics and working on the Mini-Series (More details about that coming soon.)
Any questions? Ask me in your reviews, or e-mail me.
Next agenda: I don't really have time for separate thank you's because I have a lot to do before I go to sleep … I go back to school tomorrow – Whimpers. – Lol. But I would like to give a mega huge thanks to everyone who's reviewed the last few chapters that I have been unable to do individual thank you's for.
Everyone loved Charlotte's middle name. Yay! Two people suggested it, and I thank you so much for it! A lot of people asked about Charlotte's name, and the fact that it's the same as Melinda's NYC Cover Name – that will be answered come the Mini-Series.
Question to The Cheese Fairy: in your review, you said, "Andy yay!" I'm confused . . . Lol.
Anyway, enough yapping! Last thing: If this chapter is short, forgive me. I don't have much more to put into it, since the Mini-Series will be coming.
Enjoy and please review!

"In only a matter of days, you'll be a married woman," Katelyn called.
"I know! I can't believe it," Melinda called back.
"Well, believe it!" Samantha added.
Melinda was in her room, trying on Phoebe's old wedding dress. Kat and Sam were waiting in the hall, and making sure the guys stayed away.
The door opened and Melinda emerged.
Kat and Sam gasped, unable to utter any words.
The pure, snow-white gown touched the ground was longer in the back, trailing behind her. It had a frilly white layer on top of the silky skirt. The sleeves were small spaghetti straps. It had a plunging neckline and a crisscrossing back.
"Oh, Melinda. You look so beautiful," Sam said softly.
Melinda smiled. "Thanks. I better go change before I ruin the dress, or before Scott tries to sneak a peak." She turned and went back into her room, closing the door.
She changed slowly, her mind wondering. She had so much to think about and so much to do in only a few days. Tonight she planned on staying home and planning the finishing touches.
Sure, she'd be having a wedding at home, with just her immediate family. But she still wanted to plan for it and make it perfect.
After changing, Melinda checked the time. It was late in the day, almost time for dinner. Scott had taken Charlotte out for a walk in the park and she'd been with him since. He had wanted to give Melinda a break.
Melinda emerged from her room to find Sam and Kat gone.
"Must be downstairs," Melinda rationalized. She went back in her room and shut the door, then lay down on her bed and closed her eyes.
…………………………………………………………………………………………..
When Melinda woke up, the house was dark and silent.
She sat up and pushed the covers aside, rubbing sleep from her eyes. But then she realized that she hadn't been under the covers when she'd gone to sleep.
She got out of bed and made her way out of her room. The hall was just as dark and silent as her room was. Shivering, she went downstairs. At the bottom, she heard hushed voices and walked towards them. In the kitchen, Wyatt and Chris were speaking. Melinda remained outside the kitchen, hidden and listening.
"Do you think the memory block is sticking?" Chris asked.
Wyatt nodded. "It has to be. If it weren't, she'd be showing signs."
"Good, good. But she did name her daughter Charlotte. And that was her name in New York, according to Scott," Chris added.
"True," Wyatt replied. "But it's also the name of Melinda Warren's mother. And since Melinda is named after, well, Melinda Warren, then it might just be that."
Chris frowned. "It seems like too much of a coincidence."
"Maybe it is. But we'll just have to watch her and if it seems like she's remembering, we'll have to fix it," Wyatt said.
Melinda's eyes widened. She heard Wyatt and Chris get up from the table and quickly escaped back up to her room.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
The next day, Melinda was still pondering over Wyatt and Chris's conversation. But it was her wedding day and she didn't want to let anything get her down.
She stood in her room, slipping into her dress and shoes.
There was a knock at her door.
"Just a sec." Melinda finished dressing. "Come on in!"
The door opened and Wyatt entered. Melinda frowned.
"What? Not ha-" Wyatt paused. "Melinda, you look beautiful."
"Thanks," Melinda said, slightly coldly.
Wyatt noticed. "What's wrong? It's your wedding day, you should be happy!"
Melinda opened her mouth to speak, shut it, then said, "What are you and Chris hiding from me?"
Wyatt was silent. "What do you mean?"
"Don't screw around, Wyatt. I heard you guys talking in the kitchen yesterday," Melinda replied softly. She was shaking and close to tears, but she tried not to show it.
"We aren't hiding anything, Mel, promise," Wyatt said, but he couldn't look her in the eye. He hated lying to her.
"Fine," Melinda replied shortly. She left her room and made her way to the top of the steps. The music had started downstairs had started and it was time for the wedding.
Melinda began a slow march down the steps. As she reached the bottom and walked straight ahead, she saw Phoebe, Piper, Paige, Prue, Patty, Grams, Victor, Chris, and Wyatt (who had orbed down), and Scott in the middle of it all, smiling at her.
Melinda reached the end of the walk and stood with Scott.
Grams recited her lines, Melinda and Scott said their vows, rings were exchanged, and they kissed.
The End.
