The Future…

Melinda crossed her legs letting the slit down the side of her dress fall openly, smiling at her brother across the other side of the room she focused on the youngest member of the family. She'd found him earlier, lying on the bed in their mother's room.

His smell, my God, she'd forgotten how good he smelt, how good it felt just to lie with him.

"Tired of me darling?" Wyatt's voice came from across the room.

Melinda shook her head, "Of course not, my love."

He patted his knee, "Come here."

She got up and undid her hair, letting her chocolate curls spill over her shoulders, she smiled as she settled herself on his lap, "You miss him, don't you?"

She rested her head in the crook of his neck, her hand over his heart, relishing the closeness between them, "Don't you, my love?"

Wyatt nodded, "Of course."

Present day

"Ah, I have something I have to do. I'll be back soon." Chris disappeared in a swirl of blue orbs reappearing in the attic.

Lying down on the Day bed he closed his eyes, "Where are you two?" he whispered.

No sooner had Chris left the room did Piper call Paige, Prue and Phoebe in and got Paige to follow him, standing in the attic doorway they watched the boy lie down and whisper the words, 'Where are you two?'

Prue paled as the air around her cousin began to ripple he was Time Reaching; she knew when he was asleep the witch had that power as a child but in a time when all his dreams were nightmares of innocence lost, it could kill him.

But rather than stop him she watched on in morbid curiosity as Chris' back arched and a shaky breath escaped his lips, a green light pulsed from the wristband on his right arm, as the light engulfed him his body relaxed and he slipped fully into unconsciousness.

Prue gasped, "He did it…I didn't think it was possible…he reached Wyatt."

Phoebe looked at her daughter, "What do you mean reached Wyatt?"

Future

Wyatt and Melinda were still sitting entwined on the armchair when the air beside them began to ripple, Wyatt raised his hand ready to obliterate the source of disturbance but stopped when he saw who it was.

Wide green eyes looked at them, "I missed you."

Melinda bolted off Wyatt's lap and straight to her little brother, she reached out to him, "Are you really here?"

Chris smiled sadly and pulled her hand to her face and leant into the palm and nodded, "For now."

Wyatt stared at him as Melinda pulled away, kissing Chris' cheek she said, "I'll leave you two alone."

Chris and Wyatt both nodded, Melinda flamed out and they stood in silence for a moment, Chris spoke, "Thank you for saving my life, brother."

Wyatt smiled, "It's been a while since I heard that."

He smirked, "You haven't exactly been acting like one Wy."

Wyatt nodded, "Come back to us Chris." He whispered as he wrapped the slender frame in his arms."

"You know I can't." he whispered, "I can't come back to this."

"You can't fix everything little brother." Wyatt murmured as he pressed a kiss in his dark hair.

Melinda walked back in the room and stood in front of her brothers, slowly she eased her younger brother out of her twin's arms and into her own, she kissed him softly and to her surprise Chris reciprocated.

Chris' body slowly started to fade, he turned around and pressed a kiss on his brother's lips and disappeared.

Present Day

Chris' eyes fluttered open and he sat up, looking around he saw his family standing in the doorway.

"Why the hell did you Time Reach?" Prue yelled, "It could have killed you!"

Chris rubbed his temples, "I had to know Prue."

"Know what?" she demanded.

"Stop questioning me!" Chris stood up, towering over the younger woman, "If anyone around here should be asking questions it's me."

"Oh yeah? What do you wanna know asshole?"

"Your premonition. What was it about?"
