-1I read back over some of the reviews and I now feel so guilty about not updating much that I'm going to make a big effort to try and do at least one update per fortnight!

Paige fan: I love getting your reviews! You're almost always the first person to review, so thank you!

Peanut2lb: Well worth the wait? Thanks!

Anna Caulter: Wow, a NEW reviewer! I can't remember what I wrote in the last chapter properly, and I'm too embarrassed to re-read it, so I don't even know what the dialogue was!

Honesty

Prue awoke to bight sunshine and immediately regretted the night before. Not breaking up with psychopathic Roger, but for sleeping with Andy and giving him false hopes. It wasn't that she didn't like him, she did, but Andy was different from high school, he had to be. People changed, and Prue wasn't entirely sure she'd like the changed Andy as much, or that she even believed in love anymore.

Prue carefully moved Andy's arm away from her, and quietly got up. She kept giving Andy nervous glances as she dressed, praying he wouldn't wake up and catch her.

"Prue. Don't you dare just run away." Prue stopped abruptly, halfway to the door.

"I'm not…" She said hurriedly. "I was going to make breakfast…"

"Yeah, of course you were." Andy sat up and stared at her hard. "So where were you going then?"

"Nowhere! I told you!" Prue was suddenly glad she hadn't just left.

"You were just going to leave, weren't you? Don't I deserve more than that?"

"Of course you do!" Prue moved forward, and sat on the edge of the bed. "But I didn't want to have to explain to you…"

"Explain what?" Prue sighed.

"Just…why I have to go now."

"Go?" Andy said, annoyed.

"Yes…" Prue smiled slightly. "You didn't think I could stay here, did you? I don't love you. It's not that I don't like you, I do," she added hurriedly. "But seven years is a long time, and I not sure that I really know you anymore."

"Of course you know me! We just slept together!" Prue felt her face flush.

"I know. But I shouldn't have done that, not…after everything. Even if I did love you, I'd still go back to the manor first. Piper thinks I left Roger because of you, and I want her to realize that it had nothing to do with you." Andy raised his eyebrow, and Prue reluctantly smiled. "I meant nothing to do with you coming back and me deciding I loved you instead of Roger and screwing up my life." Prue felt guilty at saying that she didn't love him, but she didn't want to lie to him. "You're still my best friend," Prue said, biting her lip, "even if I don't know you all that well anymore. In fact, you're my only friend, thanks to Roger."

"Where exactly are you planning to go then?"

"The manor," Prue said, as if it was obvious.

"Yeah. Of course…" Andy forced a smile. "What are you going to tell your sisters?"

"Nothing! They don't need to know anything, okay? So don't you dare tell them!"

"I won't!" Andy said, insulted that she'd think he would.

"Thanks…I think it's best if I go now…I mean, Piper will…be wondering where I am, and I need to tell her…something. God knows what."

"Sure," Andy said. "I guess I'll see you some other time then?"

"Mmm, yeah. Of course. And Andy?"

"What?"

"Thanks…" Andy just smiled and nodded.

"Piper," Prue said for the hundredth time. "It would have been wrong to stay with Roger when I didn't love him."

"He's devastated, Prue! He kept calling last night, and telling me he didn't understand why you'd left."

"Well he's very stupid then!" Prue couldn't resist saying, and Piper stared at her, shocked.

"I don't know what's wrong with you!" Piper spat furiously. "I can't believe you're being so cruel and cold about this! If you don't love him, then the least you could do is go and explain to him!"

"There's nothing to explain! At least, not from me!"

"Okay Prue, just what is your problem? You keep…hinting that this is Roger's fault, but you're the one who walked out on him, and you're the one who was kissing someone else when your fiancé was only in the next room, so what the hell am I suppose to think? Just what are you saying here?"

"I'm not saying anything! This doesn't even have anything to do with you!"

"It does when you just move back into my house, and I have to keep telling Roger excuses as to why you can't answer the phone!"

"Okay," Prue said, smiling falsely and trying to keep her temper. "Firstly, it's our house, and secondly, I never asked you to tell Roger anything except get lost!"

"I'm not going to say that to him! You can!"

"I have! He just doesn't get the message!" Piper shook her head in disgust.

"I wonder why," she said sarcastically. "You can't just decide like this Prue. Especially if the only reason is Andy. It was eight years ago!"

"Seven, actually," Prue muttered, trying not to think about the previous night. Piper looked at her accusingly.

"See? You've been counting, have you?"

"No! But I do know when I graduated from high school! Just stop blaming Andy! It's not his fault, and he has nothing to do wit the reason I left Roger, except that he finally helped me realize I didn't need to stay with that bastard for a minute longer!"

"Bastard? Roger's done nothing but-" Both of them stopped and looked at the phone which had begun to ring.

"I'll get it, shall I?" Prue muttered and walked over to the phone and snatched it up.

"Hello?"

"Prue! Prue, Please, just listen to me. I didn't mean to-" Prue glared at Piper.

"Look Roger, I want you to leave me alone, and I'm asking you here, but if you don't, then I'll have to go to the police!" Prue slammed the phone down. "Happy now?" She said to an astonished Piper.

"Go to the police? Prue, have you lost your mind?"

"No. You don't understand."

"Yeah, you're right, I don't. But I'm asking you to please explain to me, Prue. This just isn't like you. I thought you were happy. I feel like there's more to this than you're telling me, but I'm your sister, and I want to help."

"Then just leave me! If there as anything wrong, I'd tell you," Prue lied.

"Would you though? You're obsessed with sheltering me and Phoebe form the worst, but we're not little children anymore, Prue, we're adults. We can take it!" Prue sighed and looked away.

"I know that. There's nothing. Okay?" Prue smiled reassuringly as Piper eyed her suspiciously.

"Fine," Piper said. "I'm going to work. But don't think this is over."

AN: Yeah, it's a little short, but I promise the next one will be longer.
