Chapter Fourteen

Piper blinked, slowing opening her eyes to find Leo and her sisters staring down at her. "Thank God, you're awake!" Prue exclaimed, hugging her sister.

"Ouch!" Piper exclaimed as Prue accidentally elbowed her in the stomach. Prue jumped back, a look of horror and concern on her face.

"Omigod, did I hurt the baby?" Prue gasped. Piper turned to Leo, a murderous look on her face. She shrugged sheepishly.

"They were going to find out anyway!" He protested.

"I would have preferred to tell them myself!" Piper snarled. Kyle nudged Leo and said jokingly, "Don't mess with pregnant women, mate, especially not pregnant Halliwell women…unless you want to be blown up into thousands of pieces."

"What was that, honey?" Paige said in a sweet voice, her eyes flashing dangerously.

"Er…nothing, sweetheart," Kyle replied, staring at his feet. Piper snorted. Suddenly, Phoebe burst into tears.

"Pheebs, what's wrong?" Piper said, shocked at this sudden display of emotion from Miss 'I don't care about anything anymore' Phoebe.

"You're what's wrong!" Phoebe yelled. "You horrible selfish bitch! You have to go and get yourself pregnant now, don't you? You've got it all now, haven't you Piper? A husband and now you're having a baby! I don't even have my fiancé anymore! You have to have everything! I hate you! I HATE YOU!" And with that outburst, Phoebe ran out of the room. Piper's jaw dropped. She tried to say something but no words came out. She was utterly speechless.

Phoebe slammed her bedroom door shut, sobbing loudly. "It amazes me how you manage to look so beautiful, even when you're crying," a male voice said.

Phoebe looked up to see a man with slicked back brown hair and…she gasped. One of his eyes was white on black and the other black on white! He wore a simple white T-shirt and faded blue jeans. Phoebe levitated into the air in a battle pose.

"Wait, you don't need to attack me! I'm the God of Balance!" He exclaimed, quickly putting his hands in the air. "I mean you no harm! I didn't mean to intrude, but I've been watching you for months, Phoebe…you're so unhappy…so alone."

"So you thought you'd barge into my bedroom?" Phoebe snapped, levitating back down to the ground. The God smirked.

"Glad to see you're still as sarcastic as ever," He told her with a smile. "Allow me to introduce myself…my name is Alexander." Phoebe had to laugh at that.

"A god named Alexander?" She said, raising one eyebrow. Alexander blushed slightly.

"It means Protector of Mankind," He said quietly, staring straight into her eyes. Phoebe smiled.

"Why are you here, Alexander?" She asked.

"To restore balance in your life and to bring back your hope," He replied. Phoebe stepped a little closer towards him.

"Bring back my hope in what?" She said. Alexander stepped closer to her. Their chests were no pressed together, their faces only an inch apart.

"That you will find love and be happy," He whispered, leaning towards her. Phoebe gasped, unable to move, unable to fight his seduction as his lips pressed against hers. As she responded to the kiss, she was hit with a premonition that turned her world upside down.

Premonition

"Mommy, mommy, look!" A little girl exclaimed. "Mommy, mommy!" An older Phoebe turned to the little girl and said sweetly, "What do you want to show me?" Beaming, the girl levitated into the air. Phoebe grinned.

"Mommy, I can levitate higher!" Another girl yelled. She had dark brown – almost black – hair and unusual black on white eyes whereas the other girl had light brown hair and white on black eyes.

White on black eyes…

Black on white eyes…

Alexander.

A/N: Oooh, what does this mean? Yeah, so I've made a few changes involving the kids. Nothing major! It's mainly to do with Phoebe's kids and you will find out later on in the story! Oh and there will be a sequel. It's going to be called A Blessed Life. It's centered on the Charmed Ones' kids: Paisley, Payton, Phoebe's kids that will be born in the sequel to this story and Prue's kids that she will be pregnant with at the end of the sequel to this story.

Next chapter: Phoebe introduces Alexander to her family and apologizes to Piper for her weird behavior. Kyle finally proposes to Paige! (Yes, I haven't written that in yet, but it'll DEFINITELY be in the next chapter.) More of the Trinity's plots to kill the Charmed Ones.

Seven more chapters to write before the story finale!
