Paige stood figiting infront of Prues bedroom door

She knew she had to tell Prue this wasn't just something that could be kept a secret, but she and Phoebe had always been the ones that never went running to Prue. She decided to ask Phoebe first and turned running smack bang into Piper

"Whoa!" Piper grabbed her by the shoulders

"You ok Paigy? You look like you've been crying" she asked Paige shifted

"Nothing" she concentrated on the floor

"It's half six on a Saturday morning your not exactly the early bird now whats wrong?" Piper asked "I promise not to tell Prue" she added quietly Paige looked up at her sister and felt a rush of love for her as much as Phoebe and Paige had been closetest Piper was always the one who Paige would go to in an emergency, This is an emergency she thought pulling Piper into her room she closed the door

"It's not really anything I've done" Paige squirmed suddenly regretting her decision

"Paige I promise not to judge" Piper flicked a piece of hair back as the doorbell rang

"PAIGE FOR YOU!" Paige hot footed it straight out glad for the intrusion but who could be calling so early?

"Halliwell" Kyle Brody's grin was greeting her from the stairs

"Kyle? How did you know were I live?" Paige asked

"I spotted your Car out front I live across the garages you can see for miles" he smiled she suddenly realised she was wearing her pink sheep jamies and folded her arms

"Sheep are cool" Kyle winked "I'll call back at a more civilised time" he waved and shut the door Paige sat on the stairs smiling Prue appeared from the kitchen

"Boyfriend?" she asked

"Friend friend" Paige replied standing up

"Whatever get Phoebe tell her she's got a message from Cole" Prue chucked the phone at Paige who stood staring at it she flipped it open and dialled voicemail before listening to it

"Heya Phoebe baby I um no I was a jerk last night but I um think we need to chat yeah we do alright call me? If you get this, if you don't I'll call you back um tomorrow bye" Paige instantly realised Phoebe must have told cole and he freaked she jogged up the stairs and into her room were Phoebe lay sleeping on the bed she shook her awake

"Paige!" Phoebe jumped

"It's a message from Cole" she held out the phone

"Did you guys have a fight?" Paige asked Phoebe nodded

"About" Paige asked Phoebe nodded

"He said that it wasn't his problem and I was just a stupid kid anyway" she looked at the phone Paige was holidng out and took it she didn't listen to the message just clicked delete and shoved the phone into his pocket

"What are yu gonna do about him?" Paige snuggled upto her sister

Phoebe shrugged "Don't know depends what happens doesn't it" Paige nodded

"Your gonna have to tell Prue you know" Phoebe lept off the bed and stared at Paige as if she had three heads

"Are you crazy!" she shrieked Paige stood up

"Well I think she'll notice when you come home with a baby phoebes!" Paige hissed

"Well I've been thinking about that" Phoebe said

"What d'ya mean?" Paige asked not liking the way Phoebe was talking

"I'm gonna move out"

"What! You can't"

"Why not theres nothing keeping me here" Phoebe replied turning on her heel she stormed off slamming the door behind her

"What about me" Paige whispered to the door.

She showered and got dressed deciding on her black combats and a white vest top pulling her slightly damp hair into a topknot she made her way downstairs Phoebe gave her complete daggers Paige almost flinched she walked straight past her and into the kitchen

"Paige I'm going out are you coming?" Piper asked Paige shook her head scuffing her boots on the floor

"See you then Prue's at work I'll be back in a few hours"

"Were are you going?" Paige asked

"Theres an apartment across town that I'm thinking of moving into"

"your moving out?" Paige asked

"Well I'm strating collage soon Paigy I can't keep staying here"

"Does Prue know?"

"I'm a big girl sweetie I can decide things for myself" Piper smiled and left without a word about that morning Paige pouted and stalked into the living room Phoebe turned to her

"Did you tell Piper?" she asked accusingly

"No what makes you think I did"

"I heard you talking to her before Prue yelled" Phoebe's voice held an accusing tone she only ever used for Prue

"I didn't" Paige said

"Your just like those two I thought we were best friends!"

"We are!"

"Best friends don't tell secrets" Phoebe shouted

"Phoeebs I didn't I just don't know what to do"

"You don't know what to do? How the hell do you think I feel!" Paige suddenly felt a whirl of anger,

"I don't know! Your always so busy telling Cole what you feel that I don't get a look in anymore"

"Maybe that's because I can trust him" she got up and went to walk away

"Yeah cause he's so trustworthy bailing out the moment you need him for something!" Paige shouted leaving behind an empty silence

she bit her lip as she watched her sisters face flush an angry red colour and begin to walk upstairs

" Pheebs!" Paige called

"Save it Paige I don't care anymore" Paige wanted to run after her, to tell her everything would be alright and that she would stick by her even if cole wouldn't but she couldn't even tell herself that the doorbell rang ad Paige turned opening it

"Civilised enough?" Kyle brody leaned on the doorframe grinning Paige felt the anger leave hr and be replaced by a rush of gratitude

"Come on Halliwell" he held out her hand and she took it pulling him inside and hugging him to her

Piper looked at the forty something estate agent who was slightly bald with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes

"You see Miss Halliwell it's quite right"

"No it's not sorry but I'm afraid I need something else maybe not so mouldy" she wrinkled her nose at the falling down wallpaper

"Thanks but no thanks" she shook his hand and strolled out thinking about that morning with Paige, Sometimes she felt like she was starting to get closer to her youngest sister and others she felt like she was further away that Phoebe and Prue. Shaking her head she bought a coffee and sat down at one of the silver tables

If it was an emergency Paige would have told her but at the same time she wouldn't have come to her sister if it wasn't important and she hadn't been her usual sarcastic self that morning making a mental note to have a word with Prue she jumped as her phone rang

"Hello" she sipped her coffee

"IT's Prue"

"Hey what's up"

"Dad just called apparently he wants to visit tonight"

"Talk about short notice"Piper replied their father never had been commended on his timing

"He's never been one for taking others into account" Prue added sourly Piper understood her sisters feelings towards their father after all he'd walked out on them when Prue was ten Piper hardly remembered what life had been like with him around and Phoebe was too little also Paige wasn't around she was the result of her Mothers short lived fling with a man the girls knew nothing off Paige didn't know that she wasn't Victors daughter he hadn't been to see them since Paige was seven or eight and even then Grams made sure that she had been kept two busy to notice the way Victor treated her

"What about Paige" Piper thought aloud

"We just have to hope he doesn't say anything" Prue mused

"WHAT! Prue he could say something about her dad or Mum or anything and then how will she feel"

"Calm down he'll behave himself or else I'll make sure he never sees any of us again" she hung up after another chat Piper drove back to the manor thoughts wizzing through her mind the first thing she noticed when she went in was the TV was still on and the door open

"Paige! Phoebe! I'm home" she dumped her keys and bag on the side and locked the door flicking off the Tv she worried when nobody answered suddenly Paige;s head poked out from the kitchen

"Hey" she smiled she seemed happier than earlier on but Piper was suspious

"Why was the door open and the TV on?" she asked

"I uh got distracted" she seemed to be trying not to laugh

"Whose In there" Piper strolled past her sister to find a sheepish looking Kyle Brody

"Surprise" he smiled

"Indeed" Piper smiled at Paige knowingly

"Prue's gonna be home any minute" she added Paige looked embarresed

"I'll call you or something" she smiled he nodded kissing her cheek he let himself out Piper grinned

"What" Paige tried not to smile

"I should tell you off having boys in the house while we're not home but I suppose it doesn't count as Phoebe's in"

"She's not she went out a few hours ago" Paiges face darkened

"Did you two have a fight?" Piper asked Paige shrugged

"Alright well Dad's coming for Tea so I suggest you go get ready

The doorbell rang and Prue answered

"Pruedence" Victor smiled and attempted to hug her she sidestepped him

"Long time no see" she replied icily he stepped inside as Piper walked out

"Hi Dad" she hugged him casting Prue a dark look which she pretended not to see

"Wheres my other daughter?" he asked as Paige appeared at the bottom of the stairs he looked up

"PHOEBE" he shouted

"She's ot home but I am" Paige smiled sweetly not really sure what to do

"Hmm Well then" he walked straight past her and into the living room Paige frowned and Prue squeezed her shoulder

"He's just not a usual Dad" she smiled Paige returned it reluctantly knowing there was more to it

after an hour when Paige had served tea a meat filled casserole and choclate cakes for afters they held small talk, Paige slouched in her chair

"So What's New york like?" Paige asked

"Piper pass the sugar please" he cut across her Paige looked at Prue for help

"Dad Paige asked you a question"

"I heard her I chose not to answer" he replied cearly annoyed Paige slammed down her mug of tea causing it to slop every where

"What have I done to deserve this! Your fine with Piper and Prue you even want to see Phoebe but not me why don't I matter?" she shouted Piper was making danger signals to Prue

"No not realy I-" he was cut off by the door slamming open and Phoebe wobbiling through clearly drunk

"Phoebe" Victor gasped

"Dad! Heya!" she struggled to focus her eyes

"I want an answer!" Paige said

"I prefer to spend time with my real daughters" Victor said coldly his eyes meeting Paiges as she felt the air leave her body a roaring in her ears she was numb

"Yeah Paige is just our half sister she's only half of the family" Phoebe murmured sitting on the couch and throwing up

"Half the responsiblily Half the looks Half a brain" Phoebe wasn;t making sense now

"Half the trust I bet you told them didn't you well I don't care I;m gonna go live with Cole and our baby in New york when he goes to collage"

"What!" Piper Prue and Victors voices sounded in a trio Paige was still staring blankly she suddenly noticed that nobody else was shocked at the revelation

"You knew" she murmrered Prue looked up

"You knew I wasn't your real sister and you still let me believe he was my dad!" she suddenly realised her whole world was crashing around her so she did the only thing she felt she could she bolted straight out of the wide open door Phoebe had entered through

"Paige!" Piper shouted
