Different Paths Part 3:
Things get serious

--------------------

Prue came the next morning down the stairs and went straight for the kitchen.
"Morning"
she mumbled as she sat down on the table in the kitchen
"morning"
she got as answer from Leo, piper and Phoebe
"where's Paige?"
"She had last night a date with Glenn... I don't think she came back home..."
Phoebe said as she stood close to the sink
"umm... Pheebs... can you hand me a mug of coffee over, please?"
"Prue... we had an agreement we let you continue to drink coffee till the last trimester if you promise us to not drink coffee anymore in the last one"
"well I don't care... I have in an hour a doctor's appointment and the man, who is supposed to be my husband and the father of this child... is once again nowhere to be found!"
"Did you try to call him already?"
"Yes... he's not reacting on my calls"
Leo tried to ignore the conversation. But finally Piper shot her looks at him
"Leo... do you know where Andy is and why he's not reacting on Prue's calls even thought he's her whitelighter?"
"He's on an important mission"
Leo lied
"I'm sick of this... you can't tell me he's the past few weeks like permanently on a special mission, Leo! If he betrays me you or he could at least be as kind to tell me!!!"
Prue yelled at him as she pushed herself up from her chair again. She went for the wardrobe, ignoring the calls of her sisters. She got her jacket, pulled it around her and then reached into her pocket. Her ceil and keys were there... what was everything she needed right now. She went for the front door, just as Piper and Phoebe hurried after her and the front door flung opened
"a wonderful good morning everybody"
Paige announced. Prue just ignored her and rushed past Paige and hurried to her car...
"Wha..."
"Why didn't you stop her?"
"Excuse me?"
"It's okay honey... it's nothing"
Phoebe told Paige and wrapped an arm around her...

Andy was in heaves and talked with patty
"you need to talk to her… I can't always come back… Prue needs me now..."
"I know…. But she just misses you... a lot"
"I understand that... but... I can't do this anymore... I can't permanently lie to her! not to her"
"then tell her..."
"I can't hurt her like that..."
"You should"
Patty said serious... Andy looked down at his watch
"shit!"
he cursed and without another word disappeared in bright blue orbs

Prue sat up once more form the ultra sounds.
"well... everything looks fine... even though I'm a little worried about your blood pressure... did you have a lot of stress lately?"
dr Andrews asked
"umm... yeah my... my husband and I had some problems"
"well... if we don't want this little girl of yours to be premature you should rest the next few days. Relax. Let yourself be pampered till your blood pressure is down again. Also leave the work out for a few days"
"okay... thanks"
Prue said smiling as she got completely dressed again. She got up and left the doctor's room again... just as Andy ran up to the door... bumping like directly into her
"Prue... I'm so..."
"Sorry?"
Prue asked ironically
"I don't want to hear this anymore! Be there or we soon enough will have serious troubles here!"
Prue yelled at him a she passed him. Andy sighted and ran after her
"Prue... listen to me, please"
"I don't want to hear your apologies anymore, Andy... where were you last night? I waited nearly an hour for you!"
"I know... I'm sorry"
"I didn't want to know if you are sorry or not... I wanted to know where you were"
"I can't tell you..."
"Why not?"
"Prue..."
"No... Where were you? What did you do?"
"I... sweetie... I can't tell you... I'm sorry"
"well you better soon find something you can tell me... or you finally just tell me who it is, you sleep with!"
"What?"
"Oooh did I find out about your little secret?"
"Prue... it's not like you think it is... "
"I don't care what it is... it's simply driving my condition down... and driving me slowly as far as to go into pre-mature-labour... whether you are there now or you stay away from me and MY daughter!"
Prue yelled at him as she got into the car again, driving off and left Andy standing there alone.
