"Parents?" Shea shouted.

"Shea…" Piper started to say.

"Parents?" Shea yelled louder, backing away from Piper and Cole.

"Shea, what's going on?" Ian asked.

"You want to know what's going on? These parents of yours, that's what. This is my aunt." Shea yelled.

Ian stared with disbelief at Piper and Cole.

"So my mom and dad, are your aunt and uncle?" Ian asked.

"No." Shea responded. "These people aren't my family anymore!" Shea yelled. She turned and ran out the back door. Piper started after her, but Cole stopped her.

"Let her go. She needs to calm down." Cole explained. Piper nodded, then turned to Ian.

"Ian, if you want, you can come home with us. We are your parents, but if you want nothing to do with us, I understand." Piper said, her eyes shining with unshed tears.

Ian nodded excessively. "Heck yea. I didn't know if you'd want me, it not being a good time and all." Ian said, referring to Shea.

"Yea, it's good." Piper said, with a smile on her face.

Cole slipped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close.

"It'll be okay." He whispered softly. Piper turned away from Ian.

"What if she hates me now?" Piper asked

Ian spoke up. "She won't. I've seen this happen before; she's just a little confused that's all. She'll be fine, I promise." He said reassuringly. Piper nodded.

"You're probably right. So, Ian. Want to go home?" Piper asked.

Ian nodded. "Sure." He replied. "Mom." He whispered softly. Cole threw his arm around Ian's shoulders and Ian felt like he was in heaven. He felt like a teenage boy, getting advice from his dad. It felt right to him. He wondered about Shea, and if she was all right.

Shea looked at her watch. 3 o'clock. Where is he? She thought to herself.

"Colin?" Shea yelled in a hoarse whisper. Nothing.

"Colin?" She repeated. Behind her, Colin shimmered in. Shea didn't hear him. Colin put his hands over her eyes.

"Guess who?" He asked good-naturally. When she didn't respond, he knew something was wrong. That's when he realized her cheeks were wet, and her shoulders were shaking. He turned her around so that she was facing him.

"What's wrong?" He asked, concerned.

Shea couldn't speak. She was angry, her rage hidden behind tears.

Colin shook her slightly. "Babe, what's wrong?" He asked again.

Finally, she opened her mouth. "Piper. Cole. Ian." Shea stammered out.

Colin didn't understand. "What do you mean? What happened?" He asked.

"Piper and Cole. They have a son, together." Shea said. "His name is Ian. They lied to me, they lied to everyone." Shea yelled.

"Hey, it's alright. Everything's going to be okay" Colin whispered as he pulled her into a hug and stroked her hair, trying to calm her down.

"Why didn't they tell me?" Shea asked, speaking into his shirt.

"I don't know baby, I don't know. But I do know that if we don't get you a jacket, you could freeze." Colin said. It was then that Shea noticed the temperature had dropped about 15 degrees, making a little cold at the moment.

"Yea. Let's go back to my house." Shea said. Colin nodded and, still holding her, shimmered to the manor

The inside of the car was uncomfortable. Piper looked in the rearview mirror, her gaze traveling from the traffic behind her to her son in the back seat. Ian noticed this.

"I'm going to jump out of the car you know." He said, slightly amused. Piper quickly looked at something else.

"I know you won't." She said. Finally, she turned back to him. "I just can't believe it's you." She said.

"Hey, I know I'm no George Clooney, but come on?" Ian replied. Cole laughed and the silenced was filled.

"No. I meant, I just can't believe that I have you again." Piper said, serious again.

"When you were born, my mom was gone. She had died years before and I was raised by my grandmother. She was absolutely appalled at me being pregnant, so the minute you were born, she had the orphanage ready and waiting. I've never seen you since. And look, now you're all grown up." Piper said, tears in her eyes again.

"Honey. We're here." Cole said, his hand gently moving the steering wheel. Piper parked the car and sighed.

"Let's do it." She said as she wrapped Ian in a hug and gave Cole a kiss.

"Time to face the torches and pitch forks." Ian said as they climbed the front stairs.
