Chapter 2
Piper Halliwell sat on the cold stone steps in front of the manor, staring endlessly into the distant. She's gone…she's really gone thought Piper. Suddenly a small drop of water darkened the pavement around her. At first the little girl thought it was rain, until she realized it was her own tears that dampened the gray ground. She sighed and looked to the house adjacent to her. The red 'For Sale' sign covered with numerous "SOLD" stickers, swung slowly to the rhythm of the soft breeze. Amy was gone, she had left and there no use holding on. Even though the girls were only 7, they had been best friends since that day they had met in preschool.
Piper riffled through the gigantic box of crayons, but she was too late. There was nothing good left, only the remnants of the bits and pieces that had chipped off old crayons and the nasty brown ones that looked like poo. She sighed, there were white ones, but her paper was white…what good were those? She thought. Piper sighed once more and picked up the nasty brown crayon and walked to the corner of the room where she sat alone and began to color. Slowly and neatly making sure that she stayed within the lines. Everyone else was sitting with a group of friend. She was the only one that was left all alone. 'Well, who needs them anyways?' she thought bitterly. She never fit in with the other kids, so she gave up trying to.
"Wanna share my crayons?" a quiet voice asked her.
Piper glanced up and saw another girl, she wore a pretty sun flowered dress and her hair was tied up in two small pigtails. She smiled.
"Sure!" and walked over to join the girl at her table. After about ten minutes of silence, the girl with pigtails said
"I'm Amy"
"My name's Piper"
"Wanna be friends?" Amy inquired hopefully
"Sure!"
Suddenly the slow screeching of truck tires interrupted Piper out of her thoughts. She slowly shifted her eyes to a U-Haul moving truck that had stopped in front of Amy's house. A tall young man and a beautiful young woman with long flowing blonde hair stepped out. She was followed by a little boy that looked about Piper's age with sandy blonde hair and mesmerizing green eyes.
"Ohhhh" awed the little boy "Mommy this house is so big" he said tugging at his mother's skirt. She laughed
"Yes honey, I think we're gonna be very happy here. Why don't you run upstairs and go pick out a room?"
Suddenly the young lady noticed Piper staring at them and waved.
Piper glared back and kicked at a pebble. 'That's Amy's house!" she thought angrily as she ran back into the manor slamming the door behind her.
"Piper dear is that you?" yelled Grams stepping out of the kitchen carrying a freshly backed pie, just in time to catch Piper stomping up the stairs.
"Yea it's me Grams" she sulked.
"Oh great! I'm glad I found you! Here take this to the Wyatt's they've just moved in next door."
"No thanks Gram's I'm not feeling up to it right now."
"Piper please, I know you've been sad ever since Amy moved to New York but I think it would be good for you if you just met the new neighbors."
"But--" protested Piper
"GO!" Grams said sternly.
She stomped her way back down the stairs extra loudly, grabbed the pie out of Gram's hands and stormed out the manor. Two seconds later she found herself standing in front of Amy's door. Well, what use to be Amy's door, it belonged to the Wyatt's now. She knocked softly and prayed that no one would answer.
"Goodbye Piper. I'll miss you so much."
"I'll miss you so much too Amy! I'll never forget you." Cried Piper
"Try not to have too much fun without me."
"Why hello there sweetie!" Exclaimed the young woman.
"Hello Mrs Wyatt, I've come to bring you this." Piper handed the lady the pie. "My grandmother made it."
"Why aren't you just the sweetest thing? Thank you!" she gushed. "I want you to meet my son, Leo."
A young boy poked out from behind his mother. It was the boy with mesmerizing green eyes. "Hi" he said shyly
"Hi"
There was a long moment of silence. "We'll I have to go, I hope you enjoy your new home." Those words brought tears to Piper's eyes. "I'll see you at school Monday Leo."
"Bye" Leo said sadly. Piper caught the look of disappointment in his eyes but she didn't look back, instead she quickened her pace and broke into a run, running through the door of the manor, past a surprised Grams, up the stairs and into her room, she collapsed on her bed and began sobbing deeply. Her only friend Amy was gone and without her, she would be all alone again.
