So here´s the next chapter!
Ps: Phoebe ( nine months older than Paige) and Paige aren´t in the same class because Patty believed that there will be less sibling rivalry if they aren´t . And Phoebe´s actually proud to be one class over Paige because that´s almost the only thing that shows that she´s the bigger sister.
Penny and Patty Halliwell were sitting in the living room when the phone rang . Patty picked up the phone and instantly she knew that at least one of her children caused problems at school .
"Who was it ? " , Penny asked her daughter with a light smile.
"Phoebe had a fight with a boy.
Why does such a small girl cause so much trouble ?" ,Patty asked her mother while sitting down next to her .
"That´s typical for a Halliwell , you weren´t easy as well ."
Patty smiled and tried to imagine Phoebe´s punishment. She knew that today the Manor would contain a lot of arguing.
"Why do they make such a big thing out of a little kiss ? Now mom will never ever permit me to sleep at Andy´s .",Prue shouted furiously.
Piper couldn´t believe that Prue really french kissed Andy at school in front of pupils and teachers .
Actually she was a bit jealous because she had never french kissed a boy :
"Prue you know that noone is allowed to kiss at school especially not the way you and Andy kissed . It looked like you wanted to put your tongue into his throat. And why did Andy and you even chose to kiss in front of all the littluns ."
"I did not put my tongue into his throat that sounds gross and we didn´t choose that place, Piper .
I don´t know how it happened , we just felt the desire to kiss each other and then… I mean noone complaint , except of that Mrs .Doldman. That teacher so hates me . I cannot believe it , now I shouldn´t even try asking mom if I can sleep at Andy´s",Prue spoke in rage .
"Good decision .But compared to my problem yours is nothing . Today was the worse day I ever had.
Remember , Dan is my partner , which is really , really awful and a short time ago the teacher mentioned our project´s topic . Prue it´s so embarrassing .Imagine , one of our class got pregnant and … O gosh,I´m going to die . Dan and I have to talk about prevention . Prue PREVENTION" , Piper yelled.
Piper wished that the whole day would be a bad dream and that she would wake up,right now.
But none of it happened .
"I still can´t forget the talk with grams and mom . I hated it and blushed all over my face . And now I have to talk about it in front of all my classmates and with Dan , that´s so humiliating ."
Prue looked shocked at Piper :" You didn´t tell me that one of your class got pregnant . How ? I mean I know how but she´s so young and …"
Piper stared at Prue :"Did you even listen to me . Not the girl´s pregnancy is the point but my disaster . It´s all the girl´s fault . Why did she have to get pregnant ? I mean it´s bad that Dan´s my partner but the topic…that´s worse…"
Prue stopped talking and let Piper twaddle .
She wasn´t in the mood to discuss Piper´s problems because right now all she thought about was how to solve her own problems .
She really wanted to sleep at Andy´s but the girl´s pregnancy somehow confused her .
Didn´t they use prevention ?
Or worse DID they use them ?
Piper still twaddled when they finally reached the Manor .
"I hope that Phoebe or Paul are in some troubles so that mom will be occupied with them . "
"Oh , that´s mean , Prue ."
"Why , they´re always in troubles . To my mind it´s meaner if the day I´m in trouble -which almost never happens- they won´t be ." ,Prue declared seriously .
Then the two entered the Halliwell Manor:" Oh , no , it´s so quiet … Shit… , it´s tuesday . We are the first one at home on tuesdays ."
Normally Piper and Prue enjoyed being the first ones at home because there seemed to be a lot more harmony in this house without Paul teasing them or Paige and Phoebe fighting and screaming .
Prue examined the Manor and tried to sneak into her room when suddenly Patty stood behind her saying :"Hey sweeties , how was your day ? "
Prue frowned , slowly turned around to see her mother smiling uneasy at her .
"Does she know it , or not ? There are two possibilities . Either she knows it already and wants me to spill it , then my punishment would be less worse OR she doesn´t have a clue and I shouldn´t mention it cause then there´s a bigger chance that I´ll sleep at Andy´s . But what if she does know and I don´t spill it? Maybe I´ll never be allowed to sleep at …" ,
Prue´s thoughts were interrupted by Piper who recognized that Prue didn´t know what to say and decided to help Prue a little
"Well mom , my day was the worst I ever had , don´t ask why . I already hate working with Dan . And that stupid pregnancy ruined my life."
Prue didn´t have to answer Patty´s question because her mothe´s attention was immediately drawn to her second daughter. Patty looked confused , shocked and widened her eyes .
"Wait "she shouted after Piper who was about to enter her room "What … what pregnancy ? "
Prue saw her mother enter Piper´s room and closing the door .
She was really thankful because now there was no chance that she would reveal her secret by accident because in one hour Patty´s attention would be drawn to her other siblings .
Until then Piper would talk to her mother .
"Perfect "
Prue said to herself while walking into the kitchen with a grin on her face . She drank a water , took an apple , hummed happily and decided to watch TV.
Suddenly she heard her grams , who was sitting at the table reading the newspaper ,asking her :"What are you smiling at , sweety ? It seems like you had a good day ?"
Prue widened her eyes
Oh no I forgot grams .
Prue knew that Penny was the second adult person in this house who could easily smell if one of them Prue,Piper,Paul,Phoebe or Paige hid anything.
Okay Prue , just say you´re smiling at…at…gosh,I don´t know! Why can´t I invent little lies as fast as Paul ?
"Well , grams , I … just smile …because of nothing … ähm I mean nothing …mm special , you know…" Prue tried to lie .
Good , really ,really good: I smile cause of nothing ,that´s the silliest answer I´ve ever given
But Penny Halliwell didn´t really listen to Prue´s answer because Paige came home from school :"Hi grams , hi Prue. What do we have to eat , I´m starving right now ."
Prue immediately walked to her little sister and hugged her :
"I love you , I love you , I love you .",
she said happily ,Paige had saved her life by interrupting the discussion between her and grams.
Paige looked confused at Prue , she knew that Prue loved her and it wasn´t the first time that Prue told her but she definitely never said it when she arrived from school .
"Okay thanks Prue …, stop hugging me I cannot breath ."
Prue kissed her little sister on her cheek and run to her room .
Both of them , Penny and Paige looked confused after Prue and began to laugh when they glances met .
"So how was YOUR day , Paige?" , Penny asked the next grandchild .
This time she got a real answer :
"It was very good . Today we could paint a lot and I decided to paint my family , look."
Penny smiled happily when she looked at the picture .
Paige had painted all of them . Prue and Piper were holding a comb and mascara in each hand , Paul was dressed in a football outfit , Phoebe stood besides Paige on a ball and was as big as Paige , Paige wore a ballet outfit , Penny and grams stood behind them putting their really long arms around them .All of them were wearing a witch hat .
"That´s beautiful Paige but why are you dresses as a ballerina ? Do you want to take ballet lessons?And why are we wearing witch hats , you know that…"
"Yeah , I know that we aren´t allowed to talk about it . I said that we love to dress in witch costumes and in a few days it will be Halloween and…I didn´t reveal our secret , I can keep secrets , grams . It´s me Paige , not Phoebe!AND I would love to take lessons."
Grams smiled and promised Paige to talk with Patty about that.
Paul was on his way home . Instead of going into the Manor he waited outside in order to catch Phoebe . It was very important that he would talk to her
C´mon Phoebe, hurry up –it´s really cold…Why does she always dawdle that much ?
Then he saw Phoebe coming around the corner with some of her friends , they were running after a ball and didn´t pay attention to any other passengers .
Paul whistled loudly and Phoebe said her friends bye and ran to her big brother .
"Hey , what´s wrong ? Why are you waiting outside ? " she breathed heavily because she had run too fast .
Paul stooped down to Phoebe , took her hands and looked into her eyes .
"No , I´ve waited for you , Pheebs .
It´s for sure that mom already knows that you had a little fight and we two know that she won´t agree with us and think that that … what was this boy name ?"
"Jason"
"Right …,that Jason deserved your kick .
Soo…I want to help you a little out of your trouble : Don´t confess that you kicked him and that I taught you how to do it but especially don´t mention that I´ve been with you when you had to go to the direc . Cause then the both of us will be in very , very big troubles ."
Phoebe answered :"Okay I understand , but what am I supposed to say if mom asked what happened."
"Well , just say how mean this… this Jason was and that he destroyed the bascap and emphazise that he started the fight . Leave the rest up to me sis , okay ?"
"Yup "
Then Paul and Phoebe entered the Manor .
Paul hoped that Phoebe would not forget what he had said .
His baby sister tend to confess everything when she was in rage and she was always furious when Petty punished her .
Piper Halliwell left her room and knocked at Prue´s door .
Prue jumped up and hoped that this would not be her grams or her mother , she hesitated but heard Piper´s voice saying : "Don´t panic , it´s just me."
Relieved and with a huge grin Prue opened her door and saw a Piper pointing at her :"You missy , owe me that much !That was the second most embarrassing talk with mom I´ve ever had ."
Prue hugged Piper thankfully :
" I´m sorry , I´ll do anything you want . But you really saved my butt . Now mom and grams will be busy with Phoebe or Paul, they´ll stop asking me about my day . Even if they ask I´ll just say that …that ."
Piper rolled her eyes :
"You had so much time to think about that and you still don´t have an answer ? C´mon ,just say your day was okay or just say you think that you failed in biology and that´ll be definitely all they care about or …"
"Okay , okay …I understand " Prue said waving with her hands .
"Mom and grams don´t have a clue , as long as you stop being so clumsy they won´t find out that you french kissed Andy wildly at school in front of ALL the teachers AND all of the the littluns which is of course forbidden but you and Andy couldn´t …" Piper grinned .
Prue threw a pillow at Piper and a little pillow fight began .
After a short time they heard an argument and Prue ran out of her room and tried to listen to it from upstairs .
"That´s perfect , it seems like Phoebe had a fight … I mean it´s…not good … and we should have a little talk to that small child …but you know …now mom and grams will …" , Prue gladdened .
"Yeah , I understand , which also means that we can go downstairs and eat something without worrying.", Piper said annoying and went downstairs.
"Paul , I didn´t ask you . Stop answering for Phoebe .", Patty grumbled .
"Yeah , I know but…"
Patty looked furiously at him which for the first time stopped him from saying more .
"Okay Phoebe Halliwell , now I want you to tell me what happened at school ."
Phoebe looked at her big brother and began to stutter :
" Well , I played soccer … and …I was the best ." , she smiled and saw Paul nod behind Patty .
"Good , that´s great , go on ." ,Patty said while trying not to laugh because she already recognized that Paul tried to help Phoebe with gestures behind her back .
She smelled that there was more than this one fight .
Phoebe looked down and tried to remember what Paul had said
Don´t mention me
Unfortunately Phoebe couldn´t use her outward appearance , the sweetness , her small size and her big brown puppy eyes to soften her mother because in opposition to some teachers Patty couldn´t be fooled by her daughter .
"There was this guy … Jason , a big idiot…and …he…he . We were playing soccer and I was better than him and he just pushed me that I fell to the ground and THAT was definitely a foul . "
All Phoebe thought about was that Jason , how mean he had been and that this fight had not been her fault .
Paul realized that his sister talked faster and faster which often caused her to say the wrong things , he had to interrupt this discussion .
"…then he destroyed my basecap and I remembered what Pa…", Phoebe stopped talking when she heard Paul coughing very loud .
Patty turned towards Paul rooling her eyes :
"Would you please let us two alone .", she said calmly but determined .
"Why , I don´t disturb ."
"PAUL"
"Okay , okay , I´ll leave but let me say one thing that boy startedthe fight and Phoebe just defended herself . AND THAT WILL BE THE SAME THING PHOEBE WILL TELL YOU", he looked into Phoebe´s direction and saw Phoebe nod wildly :
" Yes mom …there´s not more …I defended myself ."
Petty did know that Phoebe didn´t tell the whole truth but she realized that normally they had already eaten and she decided to postpone this discussion .
"Okay Phoebe , we will talk about it after meal , go and wash your hands. " Patty ordered and rolled her eyes again.
It´s sweet that my son wants to help his little sister but sometimes that really goes on my nerves.
Phoebe ran to Paul and whispered into his ear :"I think it went very well , that was really easy ."
Paul pretended to think the same and nodded
Easy,That was definitely not easy!
Then he and Phoebe went into the kitchen where Piper , Prue , Paige and Penny were already sitting at the table .
Then all of the Halliwells ate pizza talking to each others and three of them trying to protect their little secrets.
Piper, Prue and Paul were talking about a teacher they all didn´t like ,
Penny and Patty discussed whether they should go to this witch meeting next week
and Paige and Phoebe were laughing while they were playing with their pizza .
"Hey , I think I can get two pieces into my mouth" , Phoebe said smiling and grabbing two pieces .
"Never they´re too big." , Paige answered and watched Phoebe putting the pieces into her mouth.
"Look "
Penny watched her two youngest laughing and enjoyed seeing them so happy but when Phoebe almost put two pieces into her mouth , she had enough and yelled at her a little to loud
"Phoebe Halliwell , would you stop that."
Paige burst out into laughing because Phoebe looked that ridiculous with her huge smile and the pieces of pizza looking out of her mouth.
Phoebe laughed, too but when he mother yelled at her without any caution she jerked , swallowed the wrong way , coughed loudly which drew her whole familiy´s attention to her ,
then she spit out the pieces by accident and all of them landed on her shirt and trousers .
Paige couldn´t help but laughing and almost cried.
Piper groused at first at Phoebe : " Ewww , that´s disgusting . You should not play with your food, Pheebs."
Paul and Prue almost swallowed the wrong way , as well beause Phoebe´s whole shirt and trousers seemed to be a red spot because of the sauce and they couldn´t stop laughing.
Now Piper and Patty laughed as well .
At first Patty wanted to scream at Phoebe but she had shocked Phoebe that much with her first yell , that she decided not to grumble .
Penny stood up and washed her granddaughter´s dirty face with a wet sponge .
Phoebe still coughed :"G..raaams , s..t..o..p it."
But Penny didn´t let go off her and continued washing her face and hands
"Anybody who does such nonsense has to deal with its consequences . "
Phoebe hated if someone washed her face with cold water and tried to flee but her grandmother was stronger and hold her arm .
Then Penny gave Phoebe a little kiss and sat down again .
She loved to take care of her grandchildren .
Then the different conversation continued .
"Piper I heard Jodie Hold got pregnant. Is that true because rumours say that Brian Klein is the father.",Paul asked Piper openly.
"What Brian Klein, no I don´t think so . He´s so…ewww . " ,
Piper looked to her little sisters and her mother and grandmother when she saw that they didn´t pay attention to their discussion she continued "I don´t think that Jodie would sleep with him."
"Poor Jodie , she ruined her life , she´s still a teenager …and..",Prue stopped talking when she realized that Paige was talking to Penny and Patty about her favourite teacher who had said that she was the best in biology and that Phoebe whose ears always seemed to be everywhere actually listened to her biggest sister .
Phoebe´s interest was even more awakened when her older sibling changed the topic .
"Wait , why did that girl…äam , Jodie ruin her life?What did she do?"
Piper turned towards Phoebe and looked down :
"That´s none of your business missy that´s a teen theme and you´re a kid."
Phoebe kept answering questions:
"Who is that girl , do I know her? How does he look like.."
"Phoebe be quiet , it´s nothing you should know , it´s…it´s a secret ." Prue answered calmly .
Phoebe always wanted to know everything and her interest increased when she heard the word "secret" .
"But I wanna know … and … I always tell you about my secrets " Phoebe begged .
Now Prue interfered and laughed :
"Yeah Pheebs but that's cause you can´t keep any secret ."
"That´s so not true . I can keep secrets and I got lots of them . " ; Phoebe whined and crossed her arms .
Prue sometimes loved to tease Phoebe , she was so sweet when she was mad .
Penny and Patty seemed to enjoy their little discussion and smiled at each other .
"Okay Pheebs , then give me one secret that you didn´t reveal ." , Prue said with a huge grin on her face .
Paul wanted to stop Phoebe from answering to that mean question but it was too late , his little sister talked without thinking again :
" I didn´t tell that I used Paul´s special kick on Jason or…"
Patty´s and Penny´s eyes widened :
"You did what?"
Phoebe didn´t pay attention to Penny´s question or to Paul´s expression otherwise she would have stopped talking .
"…that Paul went with me to the direc invisible ."
Phoebe didn´t continue confessing her little secrets when she realized that her family was staring at her , all mouths opened and eyes widened .
Then she covered her mouth with her hand and whispered :
"Oh no."
She looked towards Paul who covered his face with his hands .
He knew that he was in big , very big troubles.
Nevertheless he wasn´t mad at Phoebe because he knew that she didn´t do it intentionally .
Patty and Penny didn´t know what to say , they were speechless and looked from Phoebe to Paul and vice versa .
There was a frightening calm in the Manor , nobody dared to say a word . But all of them knew that this calm wouldn´t last very long …
Prue was the first one who said anything :
"You used your power at school, That´s so personal gain" , she laughed at Paul .
Paul answered immediately:
"Well it´s less personal gain than french kissing Andy wildly at school in front of all ." , he shouted .
Patty´s fork fell down at her plate and made loud sound .
"You did what?" , this time the question was directed to Prue .
Prue looked uneasy to Piper but Piper couldn´t help her and Prue tried to think what Piper would say said :
"I think I failed in biology."
Piper shook her head and rolled her eyes
wrong timing ,Prue ,
she thought .
Can this day get any worse?
Obviously yes , because Phoebe asked :
"What´s a french kiss ? Why did you kiss a french ?"
Paige didn´t know what a french kiss was , either :
" I thought you only kiss Andy , Prue?"
Both of them Phoebe and Paige seemed to be worried because they liked Andy and they thought that it would not be right if their sister kissed another , french guy.
"That´s not right Prue , you shouldn´t do this to Andy.", Phoebe declared with a very serious face .
All of a sudden all of them except of Paige and Phoebe were laughing loudly .
Paul and Piper almost swallowed again , Prue couldn´t say a word because of her laughing fit and Petty and Penny seemed to have a paroxysm of laughter .
"What´s so funny ? " , the youngests asked confused .
Petty was the first one who was able to talk again :
"Okay , you two can go playing outside a little .
And Phoebe you don´t need to smile that much because we will talk later about your behaviour and it will have some consequences."
Then Patty pointed at her three teenagers :
" And the three of you are going to have a little talk with us two ."
Piper knew the topic of that talk :
"Me why , me ? I DIDN´T FRENCH KISS SOMEONE AT SCHOOL."
"Me neither.I already now everything about sex." ,Paul blushed immediately when Prue and Piper looked shocked at him " I mean not that I … "
Patty ordered them to go into the living room and to sit down at the couch .
"I know we already talked about sex and…"
" Mum don´t say sex , it´s disgusting to hear it out of your mouth .", Prue spoke rollong her eyes .
Patty laughed :" But that´s the way Penny got me and I got all of you five and …"
Prue covered her ears and made a grimace "Now I´m going to vomit ."
"Prue , it´s just preventive so that when you will have sex –of course not before you will be old enough-you will know how to react responsibly." , Patty answered .
When Piper heard the word preventive she looked furiously at Prue because she was the one who got her into that embarrassing situation .Piper pressed her face into a pillow .
Can my day be any worse?It really sucks being me!
Luckily she didn´t know that this had just been the beginning .
So , did you like it ? Please review and tell me what you liked and what I could improve. Any desires? I´m open for any suggestions ; )
Shall I continue ?
Lovely greetings ,
