Ch.16
It had been 9 months since Leo's parents took the girls and Adam again. They did go back to Colorado, but had moved a week later to somewhere else in Denver. The three sisters only knew this because Adam had called Phoebe the day before they moved, but didn't tell her where because he didn't even know. That was the only time he had called. Leo had left the three days after his parents, going everywhere, trying to either find his brother and the girls, or trying to find someone that would help him get his girls back. He called once in a while, but hadn't been home in 9 months. So much had happened during those months, that Adam or Leo wouldn't believe when or if they came back to Phoebe and Piper.
It was 12:45 on a Saturday afternoon. Prue, Piper and Phoebe were in the living room of the Manor. Phoebe was lounging on one couch, as Prue and Piper sat in the two chairs. Grams was in the kitchen cooking. Prue was feeding her 5-month-old son as they talked.
"So, Prue, how has it been being a mother?" Phoebe asked.
"It's been great. I never knew that I could love someone so much and Jacob has been great. He barely cries through the night and he's so content just lying in his crib or bassinet," she responded, smiling down at her black haired, blue eyed baby.
"How about you Piper?" Phoebe asked.
"I have to agree with Prue. But, why are you asking all these questions?" Piper questioned.
"I don't know. I guess that I'm just scared," she replied, resting her hand on her 9-month pregnant belly. That's right, she was pregnant. She had found out that she was pregnant a week after Adam and the girls left. She was now due any day she had no idea what she was carrying, she had wanted to be surprised.
"Don't worry, there's nothing to be scared about. Bit even the labor. Even though it'll hurt, all you have to remember is that in the end, you're going to have a baby. Once you hold that little baby in your arms, you'll realize that all the pain was worth it," Piper explained.
"Thanks, Piper. I think that'll really help with today," Phoebe said.
"You're welcome," Piper said, "wait, what?" She was now confused, but Prue had caught on.
"Oh, Phoebe, is it time?" Prue asked.
Phoebe smiled before saying, "My water broke!"
