Author's note: This is my first Charmed Fanfic. I have written a couple Harry Potter Fanfics but they were not very good. I hope you like this one. Read and Review. Constructive criticism is welcomed.

Chapter One

Note: 2 weeks after Paige moves into the manor.

All was quiet in the Halliwell manor until Paige the newest edition to the manor woke up screaming from a nightmare. Paige sat up in bed trying to steady her breath when her two older sister witches, Piper and Phoebe came running into the room.

"Great how am I going to explain this to them?" thought Paige. "You should just tell them the truth," she told herself. "No way," she argued to herself, "Remember all the other times you have trusted or relied on someone."

"Paige what happened, was it a demon?" asked Piper as she and Phoebe made their way over to the edge of Paige's bed and sat down. "No it wasn't a demon, it was just a nightmare," said Paige. "What was it about?" asked Phoebe. "I don't remember" Paige said looking down suddenly interested in her fingernails.

Phoebe looked at Paige suspiciously but didn't press the matter. Piper gave Phoebe a look that said "should we make her tell us?" Phoebe just shook her head in response and then said to Paige who looked up from her finger nails "okay then we will see you in the morning, unless you want us to stay with you until you fall asleep?" "No that is okay, you guys go back to bed and I am sorry for waking you up," said Paige. She didn't want them to catch her tossing and turning in her sleep or yelling out anything that might give away what she was trying very hard to keep from them. "That is okay Paige that is what sisters are for," said Phoebe in a loving voice, which Paige didn't catch. "Okay then we will see you in the morning," said Piper.

Piper and Phoebe walked out of the room and Paige sighed with relief "That was too close for comfort," A few seconds later Paige burst into tears careful not to disturb her sisters again. She eventually wore herself out crying and fell asleep.

Meanwhile Phoebe and Piper were in the other room talking about Paige and her nightmare. "What was all that about?" Phoebe asked Piper her voice full of concern. "Obviously, our baby sister is hiding something," replied Piper. "We can't make her tell us, we don't want to push her away," said Piper her voice full of warning aimed at Phoebe. "Yes Piper, I agree we shouldn't push her away but she is my baby sister and I don't wanna see her hurting," said Phoebe. "What are we going to do?" asked Phoebe her voice full of concern. "I don't know but I wish Prue were here she always knew what to do" said Piper sadly. "I agree," replied Phoebe equally as sadly. Piper and Phoebe said goodnite and then headed to their separate bedrooms. What the three sisters didn't know was that someone not that far away was watching them and was heartbroken about what Piper and Phoebe said and that Paige didn't trust her older sisters enough to tell them what went on in her past.

Okay that is the end of Chapter One Ladies and Gentlemen! Please Review and constructive criticism is most welcome and some that is not so constructive.
