A/N: Wow you guys you outdid yourselves with the reviews, got a little excited when I saw how many I got for that chapter, well done and keep them coming.
Disclaimer: Thought I would chuck another one in here, if I owned Charmed or anything associated with it then I would be very rich and would not be spending my time writing stories, I would be out spending my millions.

"Aw, sweetie I'm so sorry you had a dream about your parents, I know it's tough but we'll help you through it," Piper said.
"I know that's exactly what she said," Paige said softly looking at her hands.
"That must've been your subconscious telling you that you found yourself some hot and happening sis…." Phoebe said stopping herself before she blurted out their secret.
Paige gave Phoebe a strange look, unsure if she had heard what she thought she had. Her questioning was interrupted however by a sneeze that sent her plate of toast flying, unbeknownst to Paige, but certainly not missed by the other Halliwells, blue and white lights enclosed her as she orbed in and out as she sneezed.
"Oh my gosh," all four Halliwell's said at the same time.
"I'm so sorry," Paige said looking at the mess her fallen plate had created as she tried in vain to stop the itching of her nose.
"Sweetie that's ok," Prue said getting up and picking up Paige's stuff off the floor.
"Do you want anymore toast?" Piper asked her.
Paige shook her head, "No thanks, I don't actually feel to well so I don't really feel like eating."
"Ok, well how about Piper and I go and get you some orange juice while Phoebe stays up here and keeps you company, you got to keep your vitamins up," Prue said. Phoebe pouted at her knowing her sisters were going to discuss their situation and the orb without her, but Prue and Piper just walked out of the room ignoring her look.
"So," Phoebe said settling herself on the bed next to Paige, "Who do you hang around with at school?"
"Umm, this girl Michelle, and oh yeah Glenn," she said.
"Hmm, can't say I can recall ever meeting them but you'll have to introduce them to me when we go back to school," Phoebe said passing Paige a tissue.
"Yeah I will, Phoebe can I ask you a question?" Paige said.
"Sure, what's up?" Phoebe asked her.
"I just wanted to know why I'm here. Why are you guys so willing to take me in, I mean I'm not your responsibility, I don't know…." Paige was interrupted by a coughing fit.
She struggled for breath and Phoebe sat her up and rubbed her back in an attempt to calm her down. When the fit passed, Paige fell down against Phoebe, her body void of energy. Silent tears ran down her face as she attempted to regain her composure, seemingly unaware of how she lay, yet comforted by the feeling of Phoebe's heart beating near her ear.
Surprised at how much Paige was drinking in the comfort Phoebe was giving her, Phoebe continued to gently run her hands through Paige's hair similar to what her older sister's did for her when she was upset. She could feel heat coming from Paige and reminded herself that Paige had had a pretty high fever the previous night.
Paige could feel herself relaxing under the soothing hands of Phoebe and felt her eyes begin to drift closed. She tried to fight it, again not enjoying being so vulnerable around people that she hardly knew. She didn't know why they made her feel so comfortable and safe, there was just something about them. Maybe my dream was real, she thought to herself as she closed her eyes and drifter off to sleep.
Phoebe felt Paige relax against her and heard her snuffly breathing deepen.
"Cause you're my baby sister," she said answering Paige's earlier question.

Meanwhile downstairs Prue and Piper were also discussing they're newest found sister.
"We have to tell her," Piper was saying, "Phoebe nearly let the truth out and I know Paige is going to be asking questions about why we have been so eager to take her in."
"I know, I just don't know how to do it, I mean it's lucky she's sick she seems to have forgotten about the whole magical powers thing, but I'm sure once she begins to feel a little better she's going to start asking questions and it's all going to get very complicated," Prue said sitting down at the kitchen table, Paige's glass of orange juice was on the table next to her.
"I know it's not every day you find out you're a white lighter witch, with three half sisters that you've never met, we'd be her half sisters right?" Piper said her face scrunched up as she tried to work it out in her head.
"Yeah I guess that's what it would make us," Prue said absently off in her own world.
"So when should we tell her, now or when she's a little better?" Piper asked.
"I think now, I mean she is sick so she's already kind of relying on us to get her better which means she has to trust us a little bit, and because she's sick she's probably weaker which means that she's less likely to fight us and she'll be stuck in bed so it will give her time to think things through," Prue said.
"Yeah I spose. I wish Grams was here though, she'd know what to do," Piper said.
"I think we have to look at this as fate, if Grams was still here then we probably would never have met Paige," Prue said getting to her feet. She picked up Paige's glass of orange juice and looked at Piper.
"Ready?" she asked.
"As I'll ever be," Piper said as she grabbed her older sisters hand and they walked up the stairs.

"One glass of orange juice served," Prue said as she walked back into Piper's bedroom.
"Sshhh," was the reply she got from Phoebe who pointed to a sleeping Paige.
"Oh, I'm sorry, how's she doing?" she asked setting down the orange juice and coming to sit next to Phoebe.
"She's ok, she feels pretty hot though, and she had this big coughing thing which really seemed to tire her out," Phoebe said looking down at Paige lovingly.
"Poor thing," Piper said coming to sit on the other side of Phoebe.
"Pheebs, we were thinking about telling Paige the whole situation when she wakes up," Prue said.
"Ok, how do you think she will take it?" Phoebe said.
"I don't know, but we just have to let her know that we are here for her and she can take as long as she likes to accept us into her life," Prue replied.
"Do you think we should go and get her some medicine or something?" Piper asked looking at Paige's red nose and flushed cheeks.
"That'd probably be good, do you want to go or do you want me too?" Prue asked.
"No it's ok I'll go, I can go and get a treat for us as well, what do you reckon is Paige's favourite ice cream?" Piper asked.
"Cookies and cream," Phoebe immediately responded.
"Well, that's funny as that just happens to be your favourite flavour," Prue said affectionately ruffling Phoebe's hair.
"What so Paige can't have the same, we are sisters you know," Phoebe said giving Prue that classic Phoebe look.
"Ok missy, whatever you say," Prue said "Just explain to the pharmacist Paige's symptoms and see what he recommends."
"Ok, see you in about half an hour," Piper said getting up and turning to go out the door.
As she did so, a demon shimmered in right in front of her. Acting on instinct Piper flung out her hands and the demon froze.
"Oh my god what do I do?" she asked panicing and turning around to face her sisters.
"Blow him up!" Prue said.
"Ok, yes blow him up right, what if it doesn't work I mean it doesn't always work and good god I could end up blowing something else up like my own foot or something, and let's face it I really can't live without my foot, how would I walk, how would I drive, how would I cook, I've never heard of a chef with one foot, this is bad…" Piper rambled.
"Piper!" Prue interrupted her, "Just concentrate."
"Yeah Pipe, we know you can do it," Phoebe's voice chimed in from the bed.
Piper screwed up her eyes and faced back at the demon.
"For christ's sake don't do it with your eyes closed then you really could end up blowing up your foot," Prue said.
"Right, right, you're right, eyes open," Piper said looking back at the demon.
Then she flung out her hands again and the demon screamed and burst into flames.
"What the hell was that?" Paige's trembling voice said from the bed.
Her three sisters looked at her with wide eyes now knowing what to say.
