Chapter 3: New guy and a surprise!

Beep, beep, beep, beep. Piper's alarm went off. Piper groaned reached over and slammed on it trying to find the snooze button.

'Who set this thing for so early?' Piper asked herself.

"Hun, you need to get up. Prue is on her way here. She says she has big news." Phoebe called up the stairs to Piper.

"Alright I'll be down in a minute." Piper got the stuff for her shower then headed to the bathroom.

'Finally. A hot shower.' Piper thought as she felt the warm water hit her arm.

"So Phoebes what is for breakfast?" Piper had just gotten out of her shower and had come down to eat.

"You tell me. You're the cook in the family. And I have to go to the library." Phoebe got up hugged Piper and walked towards the door.

"Pheebs wait. I thought you said Prue was on her way here." Piper yelled as Phoebe turned around.

"She is flying. Duh." Phoebe said in her baby voice and gave Piper and innocent grin.

"Phoebe. So you dragged me out of bed for no reason."

"Ummm…I thought you were gonna come straight down to make breakfast. Love you. I have to go.

"Love you to." Piper stared at her sister going out the front door of the manor.

Piper went outside to get the newspaper after she had finished eating breakfast. When she got outside she saw a moving truck.

'A very cute guy getting out of the moving truck.' Piper thought as she walked over towards the truck, or rather the guy.

"Hi I'm Piper. I live right next door." Piper shook the new guy's hand.

"I'm Dan. Nice to meet you. What school do you go to?"

"M.R. Private. It's just a small private school in the middle of SF. You probably won't know it."

"Wait that's where I'm going. At least I'll know someone."

"Well I should probably get back to the house. My Grams will be calling to check in on me and she will freak if I don't answer the phone. Hopefully I'll see you around."

"Yeah. Hopefully. Nice meeting you Piper."

"Same to you." Piper started to walk back towards the manor. "Hey you could probably come over for dinner tonight if you aren't doing anything already." 'Where am I getting all this confidence from?'

"Sure. That would be great. I'll see you then." Dan waved at Piper as she walked in the manor door.

Piper was up in her room still thinking about Dan.

'At least I'll have decent clothes on next time I see him.' She thought after remembering she went out with only her pjs on.

'Phoebe will like him. She'll probably go after him. I'll just say I saw him first.'

Just then Piper heard the phone.

"Hello. Halliwell residence. Piper speaking."

"Very well rehearsed Piper."

"Phoebe. Why are you calling?"

"Did you like the new guy?"

"What! You new about him."

"Yeah that's why I left. I figured it was about time you meet a decent guy."

"Well thanks for the opportunity Phoebe. He's coming over for dinner tonight."

"Oh. Fun. Well Prue called me and she wants you to turn your cell on so she can call you when she gets of the plane. She is going to need you to pick her up."

"Kay. Why can't Grams?"

"She'll still be at work."

"Oh. Well I'll see you later then. Love you."

"Love you too Pipes."

It had been half an hour since Phoebe told her to turn her cell phone on before it finally ran.

"Hello," Piper answered

"Hey Piper. It's me Prue. Can you come pick me up from the airport?"

"Yeah sure, I'll be there in a little bit. How come you came home anyway?"

"I'm going to tell everybody tonight at dinner. Hey, I heard about your dad. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay. I'm sure he'll be fine."

"Okay well you should get out the door so I don't have to wait much longer."

"Already doing that." Piper said as she shut the door behind her.

"Kay, love you and buh-bye."

"Yep, see ya later." With that Piper hit the end button on her phone.

"Prue!" Piper yelled as she ran toward her older cousin.

"Piper, it's so good to see you. Come on let's grab my bags and get out of here."

"Sounds good. I'm not parked that far away." Piper picked up one of Prue's bags and started to lead the way.

"I can't believe you're a junior already Piper."

"Yeah, it seems like just yesterday I was starting high school. Now I've started the last two years. Crazy huh?" Piper said slightly sarcastically.

"Piper I didn't mean it like that. It's just I haven't seen you for so long." Prue said slightly hurt.

"It's okay Prue. I was just joking around. I know what you meant."

"Thanks Piper." Prue said feeling better.

"Well here we are. I'll put your big bag in the trunk and the others in the backseat." Piper said taking all of Prue's bags.

"So Piper, what is new in your life?" Prue asked when Piper got into the car.

"Oh. Nothing much. You already know about my dad and me living with you. A new guy named Dan moved in next door and is coming over for supper tonight. What time is it any ways? I forgot to put my watch on."

"About 1:30. We should probably get home and start making lunch if Grams hasn't come home on her lunch break already. She will be thrilled to see you. Oh and instead of telling you guys my news at supper I'll do it at lunch."

"Pheebs!" Prue squealed as she ran to give her little sister a hug. "I haven't seen you in so long."

"I know! We have so much to talk about. Come on Grams already has lunch ready. Baked ham with mashed potatoes and corn." Phoebe led them all over to the dinning room table.

"Prue. Honey come here and give your grams a hug. You to Piper." Grams said in her soft way and pulled the two girls into a hug. "Sit now. Prue honey what was your big news?"

"Well. I was going to tell everybody tonight, but since Piper is having Dan over…" Prue started.

"Wait who is Dan?" Grams asked looking at Piper.

"He is the new neighbors kid. I like him so I thought it would be nice to invite him over for supper." Piper stated simply.

"Oh well that's nice. He is welcome here any time. Now Prue continue what you were going to say." Grams turned her attention to Prue and Phoebe and Piper followed her lead.

"Well, everybody…"

:I'm going to leave it there for now. Cliffy I know, I'm horrible. All you have to do is give me two reviews and I'll update. And again who should I add: Cole/Jason, Andy/Bane. The girls need to have boyfriends. And what about Paige and should I add magic. R&R please.
