Chapter 13

Confessions of a Witch

"Paige while we plan out our sister day why don't you go and take the first shower, and get into a comfy pair of pajamas, okay?" replied Prue. Paige nodded her head and left the room to go and take a nice hot shower.

After Paige had left the room Phoebe said, "We have to make this the best sister day ever since it is Paige's first and since it will the first with all four of us."

"I agree with Phoebe," said Piper.

"Okay then how about I go and get movies, Piper you can go and make a big breakfast, and Phoebe can come with me and can pick out all the junk food we will need for today," said Prue.

"Sounds good to me," spoke up Piper with Phoebe nodding her head in agreement.

"How about I just pick up a bunch of chick flicks, that should lighten the mood after we get Paige to open up," said Prue suggestively.

"Sure," said Phoebe.

"Okay with me," said Piper.

"Then lets get to work," said Prue firmly.

The three oldest sisters got to work on their tasks and when they were finally done they had enough junk food to kill a horse, Piper cooked a huge breakfast, and Prue went and got four chick flicks. She picked up How to Deal, Pretty Woman, Nottinghill, and of course Sweet Home Alabama. When they were done with their tasks they found Paige sitting on the couch in pajamas staring off into space.

"Paige, Paige you awake in there?" asked Prue waving her hand in front of her youngest sister's face.

"Yeah I am awake just thinking," said Paige slightly shaking her head as if to shake away her thoughts.

"Well are you ready to tell us about you getting abused when you were younger?" asked Prue.

"Not really but I don't have a choice do I?" asked Paige looking up at her three older sisters which in return made them shake their heads 'no'.

"Okay well when I was growing up I was shoved from one foster home to foster home, some of them were okay some of them however were not which is probably what Phoebe saw in her premonition, am I right?" said Paige trying to keep herself together.

"Yes I saw you getting whipped by some middle-aged guy," said Phoebe with despair in her voice.

"Did he have brown hair and brown eyes?" asked Paige.

"No he had blonde hair and green eyes, were there others that whipped you?" asked Phoebe in a shocked voice.

"Great I should've just kept my mouth shut," thought Paige to herself. "Yes unfortunately and you didn't even see the worst of it," she replied to her sisters.

"How many did actually hit you?" asked Piper fearing the answer she probably wouldn't like.

"From what I remember at about age seven to age eighteen, 7 out of 10 foster homes hit me," said Paige bowing her head in shame.

Piper gasped in shock, Phoebe started tearing up, and Prue just stared off into space.

Phoebe was the first to speak, "How many out of those whipped you?"

"Three," Paige whispered trying to keep herself from crying and breaking down in front of her sisters.

"Oh my god," said Piper covering her mouth and also trying not to break down.

Prue immediately went over to hug Paige but Paige backed away from the eldest of the sister's embrace but Prue wouldn't give up that easily and finally got Paige to let her hug her. (a/n: a lil confusing lol)

"Paige how come you were shoved through so many?" asked Piper sitting down next to Paige with Prue on the other side of Paige.

"Well the first two foster homes I entered were very loving families and they took good care of me but the first ones they couldn't keep me because they didn't have enough money to support me so Social Services took me away from them. The second one they died in a car crash so after that I was shoved from one bad foster home to the next in which they whipped, hit, and tormented me. The final foster home I had was a very nice older couple with whom I stayed until I was eighteen and then two years later when they died I inherited enough money to push my way through 6 years of college. I eventually became an assistant at Social Services because I wanted to help kids who got in my same situation. Now two years later I am a full Social worker," explained Paige to her sisters.

"Which one did Phoebe see?" asked Piper.

"She saw Jake my fourth foster father, he didn't have a wife," replied Paige.

"Oh, did they get you out of there before he hurt you seriously?" asked Prue trying not to show how pissed off she was. "How dare anyone hurt ANY of my sisters," she thought to herself emphasizing the word any.

"Yes and no, as I said before they got me out but only after he seriously whipped me. I pissed him off by trying to tell someone, they didn't believe me but after they saw that he whipped me about forty times they believe me. 'They' meaning my school counselors," Paige replied.

"I am so sorry you had to go through that you should have grown up with us," Piper said firmly with serious anger in her voice.

"You cannot change the past," said Paige sadly.

"Well the important thing is that you are here with us now and I promise I will never let anyone EVER hurt you ever again," said Piper as she embraced Paige with every ounce of love she had.

Paige snuggled into Piper's loving embrace and Piper started to rub her back to relax her, "Shhh baby just let it all out." Paige noticed Piper called her baby and sat up and gave her a confused look, she thought Phoebe was the one who was the baby in the family. "Paige don't look so confused, you are the baby in the family but if you don't like the nickname then that is fine we won't call you that. You still are the baby in this family, always just like Phoebe will always be 'little one' to me and Prue," said Piper firmly.

"No it doesn't bother me, it is just no one has ever called me that before," answered Paige.

"Well then that will have to your nickname from now on, don't you guys think," Prue replied and got two nods in response.

"Okay enough of all this sad stuff, we can hear the rest of the stuff as we get to know you better," Phoebe piped up.

"Yea good idea little one lets put in Sweet Home Alabama," said Prue trying to lighten the mood.

Piper went and put in the movie and all four sisters got snuggled on the couch. About a half hour later they decided they wanted some ice cream so while Piper went to go dish up some Prue finally got up the courage to ask the question that was burning in hers, Piper's, Phoebe's minds.

"Paige did anyone of your foster fathers ever rape you?" asked Prue hoping she didn't get the answer she was expecting. Phoebe immediately turned her head towards Paige and when Piper heard Prue ask that question she walked out of the kitchen still in the middle of dishing up ice cream sundaes.

The three older sisters stood on edge waiting for an answer from their youngest sister…….
