PrueTrudeau; thanks for the review. I WISH I was a professional lol. I am just trying to get better besides, I am better writing about Charmed. Ethan is my huge card in this fan fic, trust me you are going to get to know him way better in later chapters. Although don't expect me to reveal nothing really important until the very end…I really love Ethan…
peanut2lb; thanks for the review. I'll give you a tip, Andy and Prue will remain together, I am so sick of people trying to break them up…Let them stay, they are just fine together. About Ethan, well what can I say, you are right being leery…You'll find out. Oh, I almost forgot, I love your fanfics. They are great! EVERYONE CHECK THIS GIRL'S STORIES, THEY ARE AWESOME.
Random3; Oh my god! Oh my god! Do you really think it was brilliant? I LOVE "Fight the good fight" You are so good at writing…do you think I am good? I am freaking out…! (okay, I breathing…in.. out..) No, Ethan is not Wyatt, he has a little bit to do with Wyatt yeah, but is not Wyatt, nor Chris, nor ANYONE in the Halliwell family. Lol, but that was a good question because I actually thought about writing him as a Halliwell, but that is kind of over used….so…I didn't.
Angel of Charmed, good you are hooked! Don't worry, I'm going as fast as I can with the chapter but I am loaded with hw!
And now, from the Library of my High School, I am delighted to present my third chaper while I decide whether or not to yell at one annoying kid over here, making noises and picking his nose. ( I know I am nuts lol, is just that I am hungry, I get really weird when I am hungry…) Enjoy and THANKS A LOT for the reviews.
Chapter 3
Somewhat like Oprah and the old unknown people
Prue was beyond nervous, her stomach was killing her and her throat was as dry as it had never been. "Why am I nervous? I am an adult!" she thought trying to bottle her emotions. "Are you?" A voice within her mind said. Technically she wasn't. She was Senior at High school. "Bummer" the voice within said. Prue looked around, it was odd how, to the people she hadn't been gone at all while she felt like she had been gone for so many years. Everything looked the same. Well, it was the same. However, neither the people's truth nor Prue's truth was the real truth. Prue Halliwell had died five years ago, which had seemed extremely short in the madness of the vast white nothing. She looked up to Baker High again, she was worried, she had tons of memories from high school but she did not know which ones had actually happened and which ones hadn't. It was sort of freaky to know what stuff like, for example, that she was going to get elected for Prom Queen months before it happened. She never understood Phoebe's power, or how she should feel while she know that something important may or may not had been avoided, now she did. She whished she could turn around to find comfort in her sisters but she couldn't. She knew she could never tell them the truth, it would be to shocking for them. It would be like "Phoebes, your hair looks awesome today, oh by the way, I am thirty five years old and dead…" Well, maybe someday when they already have their powers and everything was fine, then she would tell them. They deserve as much time of youth as they could have.
"Ready sis?" Phoebe asked jumping around. It was her first year of high school and she was as nervous as Prue was. "Second lunch right?"
"Eh, yeah…but, why do you want me to be around?" Prue asked innocently. The last thing the old Phoebe would have wanted is an annoying and overprotective big sister bossing her around.
"It makes me feel safe" Phoebe smiled. Prue smiled her back and pulled her into a hug. "What about you Pipe?" Prue asked.
"Mind your own business Prue" Piper snapped. Prue was about to say something but Piper turned around and left. She was hurt, really hurt, Prue knew that. What she did not know was why and how hurt her younger sister really was.
"Phoebes do you know why…?" Prue started to ask.
"So…I guess I gotta go too. Catch you later" Phoebe quickly said and ran toward a group of girls that Prue didn't know or if she did, she didn't remember. They looked nothing like Phoebe's old friends, they all looked like normal girl, not too popular not too geeky. She was relieved she wouldn't have to worry about Phoebe being arrested anymore.
"Hey beautiful" a too familiar voice whispered in her ear while too perfect arms wrapped her in to a hug that made her thoughts stumble. She turned around and met Andy's gorgeous green eyes. He looked adorable, his black hair as messy as always during high school, his white skin always brightened by his smile. He was wearing the school's ledger jacket as the Capitan of the football team must do. She could see his wrapped knee through one of the holes of his jeans. She remembered that injury, he had been trying to teach her how to play football, tripped with a rock and injured his knee. It had been nothing but it scared them to death. The smell of his cologne brought her a lot of memories and she felt her eyes watering.
"Honey are you all right?" he asked her "Are you crying?"
Prue shook her head and smiled him. "I have missed you" Andy rose and eyebrow, of course he didn't know that, in her world, he had been gone for almost seven years.
"You better have missy. This is the last time I don't drive you to school. The road never felt so boring before!" Andy joked trying to make her laugh. He made it.
"You are so sweet" She said.
"I am! I am the sweetest guy on earth and I am all yours!" he laughed. He didn't know he was right. Then he looked inside his backpack and handed Prue her schedule "You forgot this yesterday"
"Did I?" Prue asked without thinking "I mean…yeah I did. Thank you"
"Second lunch" he said "Your favorite"
"Yup. Forth period always feels shorter" Prue remembered. "Should we start heading to class?"
"Sure I'll walk you"
"Walk me? We don't have first period together?" Prue asked disappointed.
"No way. I'm not taking British Lit. I am going to Creative Writing!" Andy laughed. Prue did too just not to seem as disappointed as she was. She had lost him and now they were back together she didn't want to get away from him for anything. Nevertheless Andy noticed something "You know what we can do? I'll walk you to all of your classes today!"
Prue smiled at him and kissed him. He looked radiant. She was going to get in the class when Andy grabbed her arm. She turned around "Hey Prue, if something was going on…something serious, you would tell me wouldn't you?"
Prue gave him a guilty smile. She thought about all things she was hiding from him, her powers, her…well her death after all. She thought about her mom's behavior She hid from him the demon that killed him, no she didn't. If she would have done it, he wouldn't have died. "Sure" Prue simply said.
"Even if it would hurt me?" Andy asked again. Prue gave him a guilty look and shook her head. Andy held her hand and said "I want you to be honest with me okay, always. I want you to count on me. We are a team" Prue nodded.
"I love you" She said
"Love you too"
Prue got in the classroom, in the past, she broke up with Andy that same year…she didn't know exactly why she did it, probably college had a big part on it. She wouldn't let it happen this time. But what if he asked her to let him go? After all, he wanted to go to Portland's university…Prue shook her head trying to kick out those thoughts from her mind.
"Prue!" Someone yelled her name. It was Danae Hake, her best friend. She was a cheerleader too, just like the two girls sitting behind them. Alyssa Henkel and Erika Galloway.
"Hi girls!" Prue waved them and went to sit by Danae. She was glad she remembered someone in that classroom. However, they wouldn't be the only people she knew there. Ignoring the teacher, Alyssa took a candy bar out her pocket and started eating it. She was the tinniest cheerleader, she could eat whatever she wanted whenever she wanted and she will never gain a pound. Her blond hair was the envy of every girl and her big blue eyes had gotten charmed most of the guys in the school. Danae was a little bit more normal, blond too but her eyes were color brown and she wore glasses. Erika was a little bit fatter, she was one of the bases of the cheerleading squad. She was also a bitch. Prue, Danae and Erika started talking about some new movie and, as always, Danae made Alyssa laughed, she dropped part of the caramel of the candy bar on her shirt.
"Goddamn it!" Alyssa swore.
"Very attractive Lyssa" Erika laughed. "The perfect girl dropped caramel!"
"Ig snt funi"
Everyone started laughing hysterically but almost in silence. None of them wanted to get in detention the very first day of school. The teacher, whose name was McCormack was an old guy who had been teaching there for around forty years, everybody respected him once but, once you get old, and deaf and almost blind, you kind of lose it. That is exactly what happened to the guy, although, he was the best teacher in the school. McCormack, who was taking role, called a name that made Prue's heart jump, it was the first but not last, surprise of her day.
"Cole Turner"
"Oh my God!" Prue turned around and saw Cole. He was nothing like the Cole Turner she knew. He was an attractive seventeen year old, he had long black hair and his eyes were full of happiness. He was kidding around with one of Andy's friends and it looked like he had gotten in to the football team. Cole didn't seem to know her but he stared at her and smiled a little inhibited.
"Gosh Prue! We know that the new Cole Kid is hot but control yourself" Danae joked. Well, maybe not, Cole was really hot, even Prue had to admit it.
"I'm sorry" she apologized
"My bad" Cole smiled cordially. "I should have introduced myself"
All the girls in the room laughed and Cole blushed. Sure he was nothing like the Cole she remembered. Nothing like the demon, he was actually being really nice but, she was Prue Halliwell, she didn't buy it.
"Zup Halliwell? I guess you are mad because your boyfriend isn't the coolest one anymore…Are you going to dump poor Andy?" someone said with a stupid voice tone.
"Shut the hell up Wyatt" Erika snapped "Don't listen to him Prue, Cole, he is an asshole"
"Well, I think I rather to be an asshole than a bitchy cheap whore" the guy called Wyatt snapped. Prue looked at him carefully and recognized him. It couldn't be. That 'Wyatt Person' was no one else than Leo Wyatt, her ex, future, whatever whitelighter. He looked so different, his hair was long and curly and he had a lot of muscle, his jeans were destroyed and dirty and his Led Zeppelin shirt had dirt all over. He was wearing a hat too, it was the first time Prue saw him wearing a hat. "Cole Turner is a nice jock and Leo Wyatt a troublemaker? Stop the world, I am getting of" Prue thought.
"Leo Wyatt" McCormack called. He hadn't heard anything of course.
"Here"
"This year you are gonna get beaten up Wyatt" Andy's friend said and everyone laughed.
…
Prue had already forgotten how tiring high school was. She had trouble to find almost all her classes, hopefully Andy walked her so she didn't get lost. Her schedule, yet tiring, was a pretty good one. She didn't have math which was great because she didn't remember anything. She didn't have science or any hard class she would regret taking. Maybe CI but that wasn't that hard after all. She had two classes with Andy and another one with Cole. They didn't get the chance to talk, even though Cole spent the entire period trying to talk to her. She knew she couldn't avoid him forever but everything was already too complicated. Leo troublemaker, Phoebe nice teen, Piper angry, her mother abusive ( she felt like her stomach got heavier while she thought about her mother) and Paige, well, just Paige. Just before lunch she had Photo III, a class that Piper was taking too, but as a Junior. It was Prue's favorite class and Prue's was the teacher's favorite student.
"Hey Pipe," Prue waved her while Piper ignored her. "Do you mind if I sit with you?"
"Why don't you go sit with your super friends?" Piper was being so rude to her.
"It is what I am doing" Prue said without giving up. She sat by her youngest sister.
"What the hell is your problem Prue? Are you just dumb or the mascara has gotten into your brain?" Piper yelled with no reason. "Just get lost!"
Everyone was looking at them amused. Piper stood up and sat with a geeky guy who Prue and her friends had bullied their freshman year.
"Prue, what is wrong with you?" A guy said while he sat by her side. Prue knew him but she never realized they went to the same High School, maybe was another thing Ethan changed…It was Jack, but not as she remembered him. He was shorter and had braces. He wasn't as good looking as he would be in the future. Jack bounced around Prue singing something like "The first day is great because Prue is with me!" Prue couldn't help to laugh.
She had to admit that she had a really good time in all her classes, well, of course she wondered about Piper's behavior but…oh well, she figured Piper was a little hormonal, that must be all. She was anxious for lunchtime; she will get to see Andy again. However she realized how she had been in high school, and the way people looked at her, some admiring her, some others, with fear. She had never appreciated the happiness she felt in high school, of course, that is something no one does. Everyone is too busy trying to grow up faster when they should just enjoy the ride. She was liking it a lot. So, after Photo class she went to the commons, hoping everybody will sit in the same table they used to, she was right. As soon as she got close to their table Andy run in to her.
"Do you still love me as much as you did this morning?" he asked her with an innocent smile while pulling her into a hug.
"Even more" Prue answered and kissed him. "Lets grab some junk food"
Hey, she was a teenager again, that meant she could eat as much junk as she wanted without gaining any weight! Andy laughed and nodded. There was something different about his girlfriend, but who cared? She was just a little more mature than usual but that was good, wasn't it? There was nothing to worry about. What surprised him the most was that Prue seemed to be real happy for the first time in a long time. She was the Prue Halliwell he initially fell in love with, although he learned to love her all. Prue, Andy and her friends, including Cole, went to grab lunch when they ran in to Phoebe and her friends. Phoebe and Cole stared at each other smiling like the children they were. Prue looked at them discussed; some of Phoebe's boy-friends did the same.
"Phoebs?" One of Phoebe's friends asked.
"huh, what? OH!" Phoebe came back to reality and her face turned red .
"Where you looking at that guy like a psycho or weren't you Phoebe Halliwell?"
her friend asked. "hey, isn't that your sister Prue? She is friends with the new hot guy you like!"
"Miranda! Could you keep it down please? Jezz"
Back in Middle School, Paige wasn't having a really good day. She was mad because Phoebe wasn't around anymore. Boy, being the only Halliwell in middle school sucked. Paige looked at Glen, she had had a crush on him since at least, fifth grade. Glen, in the other hand, liked a girl called Chelsea Bennet, the popular girl in the eight grade. She didn't care about Chelsea being perfect but she did care about Glen liking Chelsea more than he liked her.
"Oh boy I hate history" Glen complained to Paige who was lost in his blue eyes and blond locks. "It is like watching a boring movie, drink a lot of pop and realize that you are not allowed to go to the bathroom. It is a bummer we have to take it!"
"I think is interesting" Paige admitted. "You don't like it because last year when the teacher was talking about Italy and asked you were Florence was, you said it was in South Carolina and you got in trouble!"
Glen laughed. "Yeah, oh well, you said that the Himalaya was in Italy!" Now it was Paige's turn to laugh. They both shared a special connection that not very many people could understand, just like Prue and Andy, well , sort of. Andy actually liked Prue.
Glen was going to ask her something but he didn't. The teacher had just walked through the door. She didn't look weird but Paige didn't like her at all. There was something freaky about her. She was black and had a inscrutable expression. She didn't turn the lights on. "Like if she could see in the dark" Paige thought. The new teacher turned to her and smiled. It was an evil smile.
"You must be Paige Mathews-Halliwell," she said. No one spoke; she was one of those teachers who have the ability to keep the students quiet without raising their voice. She walked towards the white board and wrote her name.
"Serena Seer"
