Halliwell Manor-Phoebe's Room
Phoebe is sitting on her bed, crying.
She cannot believe that the whole time she and Clay were together he lied to her. This situation with her and Clay is much like the one with Andy and Prue. The main reasons she and Clay broke up were the same reasons Prue and Andy had problems. Clay was always very mysterious, would have to leave suddenly, sometimes even without an explanation, and Phoebe always felt like he was hiding something from her. Phoebe did not mind having a mysterious boyfriend, it added a sense of adventure, but too much was what had bothered her.
Phoebe hears a knock at her door.
"Phoebe, can we come in?" asks Prue.
"Yeah," calls Phoebe, as Prue and Piper open the door enter the room.
They walk over to the bed and sit down next to Phoebe.
"How are you doing?" asks Piper.
"I'm just in pain," says Phoebe, single tears rolling down her face.
"Oh, honey, come here," says Prue, as she and Piper pull her into a hug.
"Knock, knock!" says Clay, knocking on the already open door.
The sisters break the hug,
"Phoebe, can we talk?" asks Clay, lowly.
"Will you be ok?" Piper asks Phoebe.
"Yeah, I'll be fine," says Phoebe, as Prue and Piper leave and shut the door.
Clay moves over and stands near the bed.
"Listen, Phoebe, I know you're hurt," starts Clay.
"Hurt?" asks Phoebe, loudly. "Clay, I am beyond hurt!"
"How come you were never honest with me?" asks Phoebe, sadly.
"Because I was afraid," says Clay.
"Afraid of what?" asks Phoebe, curious.
"I was afraid that if I told you, you would freak out on me," says Clay. "And I was also afraid that if I told you and you accepted it, you and I would become even closer."
"I don't get it, wouldn't you want us to become closer?" asks Phoebe.
"Of course, but I was afraid that if we got close, demons would attack and hurt you. I would've never forgiven myself if something happened to you," explains Clay.
"Do you love me?" asks Phoebe.
"Of course I do," replies Clay. "Do you love me?"
"Yes, I do," says Phoebe.
"Do you wanna be with me?" asks Clay.
"Yes, more than anything," replies Phoebe. "But, it's complicated."
"No, it's not complicated. We know each other's secrets, we love each other, and we wanna be together. It happens to be very simple," says Clay, smiling.
Phoebe begins to protest but Clay asks, "Do you ever shut up?"
He rolls his eyes, crawls onto the bed, and silences her with a long, fiery, passionate kiss, something neither of them have experienced they broke up.
Halliwell Manor-2 Days Later
Clay and Phoebe have gotten back together and are very happy. Ryan has been unsuccessfully trying to talk to Prue. Every time he tries to talk to her, she either avoids him or blows him off.
Prue, Piper, Phoebe, Ryan, Leo, Clay, and Kelly are all gathered in the living room. They are watching the television show, "Dawson's Creek."
"Prue, can we talk?" asks Ryan, as the commercial starts.
"Not now, I'm watching TV," answers Prue.
"It's a commercial!" exclaims Ryan.
"Well, I like the commercials," says Prue.
Ryan raises his hands in impatience and anger. He was never one to abuse magic, but he had to this time.
Ryan quickly grabs a piece of paper and pen from the drawer and sits at the kitchen table, writing a spell.
3 minutes later the spell's done.
Ryan teleports up to the attic. He arranges 3-lit candles in a circle.
Ryan recites the following spell:
"Guiding spirits I ask for your charity,
Lend me your focus and clarity,
Erase this memory from my girlfriends' mind,
So peace of mind we can both find."
Ryan blows out the candles and quickly teleports back to the kitchen.
Once he arrives in the kitchen, he puts the spell in his pocket and heads into the living room.
"Ryan!" exclaims Prue, as she gets up and hugs him. "I missed you!"
"I was only gone 2 minutes," says Ryan, as she planting kisses on his lips.
"Well, it was 2 minutes too long," says Prue, rubbing her hand down his back.
'Now this is a spell,' thinks Ryan, happily.
"How about we head upstairs?" suggests Ryan.
"Just what I had in mind," says Prue, as they grab hands and head for the stairs.
They are almost at the stairs, when Phoebe goes to reach for the remote, in order to change the channel, when she is struck with a premonition.
Flash: Grimlocks attacking a little boy at the local park. End Flash.
"Phoebe, what'd you see?" asks Kelly.
"Two demons attacking a little boy at the San Francisco Park," says Phoebe.
"When?" asks Leo.
"In about a half hour," says Phoebe.
"Ok, so we have time to go id the demon," says Prue, as she, Piper, and Phoebe head toward the stairs.
"What are we supposed to do?" asks Clay.
"Just stay here, we'll call if we need you," says Piper.
Ryan shrugs his shoulders, as he, Clay, Leo, and Kelly go back to watching TV.
Prue, Piper, Phoebe ascend the stairs to the attic and head over to the Book of Shadows.
They begin to flip through the pages.
"Pheebs, let us know when you recognize the demon," says Prue.
"There, stop!" says Phoebe, as they stop on the page entitled, Grimlocks.
"Grimlocks are underground demons who roam city to city killing powerful forces of good by seeing the unique auras that surround them," reads Piper.
"Which they're able to do by stealing the sight of innocent children," says Prue.
"The stolen eyesight will only last twenty-four hours, but only if the children are alive," finishes Phoebe.
(A/N: Some of the lines were taken from Season 1, Episode 19, "Blind Sided.")
"There are ingredients for a potion," says Piper.
"Ok, well it looks pretty easy," says Prue. "Let's go the kitchen and get started."
They grab the Book of Shadows and head downstairs to the kitchen, to make the potion.
15 minutes later, they enter the living room, potions in hand.
"Ok, the potions are done," says Phoebe.
"Let me teleport you guys there," says Clay, as he grabs onto each of the sisters and they teleport away. Apparently, Clay also has the power of teleportation.
They teleport in behind a bush and hear a little boy.
They come out from the behind the bush and see the two Grimlocks attacking the boy.
"Hey, Grimlocks," calls Piper.
They turn around and see the sisters.
"Clay, get him to safety," calls Phoebe, referring to the little boy.
Clay quickly runs and grabs the little boy and teleports him away.
One of the Grimlocks raises his hand and begins to choke Phoebe.
Prue raises her hands and is able to use her telekinesis on him.
"Prue, did you just use your power from your hands?" asks Piper.
"Yeah, I guess my powers have advanced," says Prue, smiling. "The first one of our powers, I might add."
"Gloat later, vanquish now," says Phoebe, as she and Prue throw the potion as the Grimlocks and they are vanquished.
Clay comes back to them.
"Did you get them?" asks Clay.
"Yeah, let's go home," says Piper.
They teleport out.
Halliwell Manor
They teleport into the kitchen, to find Leo and Kelly drinking coffee.
"How'd it go?" asks Leo.
"We got them and we saved the little boy," says Phoebe.
"That's great," says Kelly, smiling. She knew how great it felt to save an innocent.
"Where's Ryan?" asks Prue, suddenly.
"Um, upstairs, in the bathroom," says Kelly.
"Why?" asks Kelly, Prue has already left the room.
"Does anyone else think something's going on with Prue?" asks Phoebe. "She was avoiding Ryan and before in the living room, she was all over him."
"Maybe she forgave him," suggests Clay.
Kelly, Leo, and Piper look at him, wondering how he knows.
"Phoebe told me what happened," says Clay, as they nod their heads.
"I don't know, I don't think she forgave him. I think it's something else," says Phoebe.
"You mean like something magical?" asks Piper.
"Maybe," says Phoebe.
Prue walks into the bathroom, to find Ryan washing his hands.
"Hey, how'd the vanquish go?" asks Prue.
"We got the demons," says Prue.
"That's great," says Ryan, as she dries his hands with the towel.
"This is even greater," says Prue, as she goes behind him and gently rubs her hand over his chest and stomach, feeling the muscles and his rock hard abs.
Prue, lust in her eyes, pulls Ryan into the shower with her and turns on the water.
They begin to kiss, as the water beats down on them, soaking them.
