HALLIWELL 2024

"Me?" Bianca said, sitting up on the bed and pulling Wyatt's black t-shirt over her head. "What do you expect me to do? I don't even know the kid!"

"Exactly!" Wyatt replied excitedly as he sat up beside her. " He doesn't even know that we know each other. We can use that to our advantage."

Bianca looked at him skeptically as Wyatt continued…

"You can befriend him. Earn his trust. Then when you have it, you can convince him that it's not in his best interest to cut off his only brother. I know you can be very persuasive when you want to be. " he asserted as he leaned in to give her a kiss.

Bianca however, was uninterested in making out at the moment and shoved him back.

"And just how do you expect me to earn his trust?" she asked him.

"That's easy." Wyatt shrugged. "The same way you earned mine."

Bianca instantly looked disgusted.

"Hold up! Are you telling me you want me to seduce your little brother?"

Wyatt laughed.

"Well…to a point…yeah!"

"Ew! That is just wrong on so many levels." She informed him, throwing the covers back and climbing out of bed.

"Oh, calm down Bianca! You don't have to sleep with him or anything. Just…you know…flirt a little. Believe me, Chris is so hard up, that will be enough."

"Really? Are you sure about that. What if he tries something!"

Wyatt laughed again and shook his head.

"Chris? I don't think so." As Bianca continued to scowl at him, Wyatt continued. "He's a twenty year old virgin for cryin' out loud! You think he's going to make his first move on an older woman? He doesn't have the guts!"

"How do you know he's a virgin?" Bianca challenged. "Did you hold a flashlight or something?"

"Trust me!" he assured her. "The kid's been so caught up in saving the world, he's never had time for a serious relationship. And Chris isn't the type to just sleep around."

"You say that like that like it's a bad thing," Bianca said.

Wyatt could sense in Bianca a hint of admiration for his brother and it bothered him a little, but he just brushed it off by adding…

"Well, it would certainly explain his mood!"

"You're not funny." Bianca said flatly, turning her back to him to stare out the penthouse window.

Wyatt sighed and climbed out of bed. Crossing the room, he approached her from behind and wrapped his arms around her gently.

"Come on Bianca…"he began, gently nuzzling her neck.

Bianca quickly shrugged him off again.

"No Wyatt. I don't like it! What if he finds out I'm a witch!"

"So let him!" Wyatt exclaimed. "In fact… go ahead and tell him! You'll earn his trust that way. Half of his friends are witches anyway. It won't make a difference."

"But I'm a Pheonix!"

"Yeah, and Jeremy was half demon. That didn't stop them from being friends."

"Well, there not friends now. Are they?" Bianca said.

"No, they're not. But that was totally my doing." Wyatt replied proudly. "Look…as long as Chris thinks you don't know me, he'll be cool. Trust me."

Bianca sighed and turn to face Wyatt.

"All right. I'll try. But I have a bad feeling about this."
