"Celebrate Paige! You just graduated!" Pheobee tried to give me enthusiasm. She took a drink of her soda or alcohol. I wasn't really sure at the moment.
"You just graduated too so you go celebrate and let me stand here." I attempted to persuade her. I was behind the counter at P3, serving drinks for Piper while she was talking to the band. The band she booked is having some 'creative differences' as Billie put it.
"No. That's not fair! Come on, Paige." Pheobee tried to persuade me. I looked at her. She had on a short black dress with black heels on and her hair up. She did her make-up then played 'Bella-Barbie' as I used to say. Flinch.
Between her, Billie, and Piper I was in a white strapless dress that came to a little above my knees. It had a thick blue belt under the upper torso and I had on blue heels. Being a witch taught me impeccable balance. My dress is really a bridesmaid dress but who am I to complain?? 'Oh, yeah. I'm the one wearing it.' I thought bitterly. 'Why am i bitter?' I pushed that thought aside as i shot Pheobee a look and answered her.
"I'm going to go home if you don't stop." I threatened.
"Let's get this party started." Billie said sitting on a stool. Her blonde hair was down. She had on a short red dress that had spagetii straps and black desighn's on the bottom. She also had black heels.
"Are you even legal to be in here??" I asked rudely. Why did i say that?
"Nope but I'm glamoured." She answered looking around. "Who's the Pheobee?? An admirer??" Billie grabbed her arm and half turned her.
"Probably here beacuse of Coop. Can't he take a hint?" Pheeb's complained.
"Coop or the guy?" Billie wondered, to keep up.
"Coop. I don't want love." Pheeb's drank more of her drink.
A tall guy with long blonde hair was standing a few tables away. He had blue eye's and looked to be about twenty five. He was in a blue dress shirt and dark blue denim jeans.
I noted to kill Billie later and walked from behind the counter. She shouldn't be using magic and risk personal gain.
"I'm going home. The elder's have been calling for five minutes." I half lied. They just called and I was going home to try to talk to Prue again. "Bye." I didn't let her object. I walked past a lot of people talking and drinking.
"Where is she going? I told you to keep her here? I'm worried. She hasn't been herself lately." I heard Piper say. "It's like she's not here and drowning herself in demon's."
"I konw sweetie. She's going through something. But we have to leave her be. She doesn't want us to help. We all did it." Pheobee said to Piper. I looked down and orbed.
I was standing in front of the potions table in the left part of the room. I threw a mix of potion ingredients I specially made yesterday. It had a pinch of rosemary, a sprig of cypress, and a yarrow root. Then I ground it and put a little of my blood in it to call a lost witch.
'Powers of the witches rise,
Course unseen across the skies,
Come to us, we call you near.
Come to us, and settle her.
Blood to blood, I summon the,
Blood to blood, return to me.'
I repeated from memory. The jingling went off in my head again.
"You shouldn't ignore you're white lighter side Paige." A voice said from behind me. I turned but it wasn't who I thought.
"I think I can." I said and threw some more ingredients into the pot. A tall elder with blonde hair to her shoulders and the traditional robes was standing there.
"We have a new charge for you and you're sisters. A family. They are in danger of demon attacks because of you're past with them. You will save someone very valuable to you if you protect them. You will loose many if you don't. They will be here on Friday." The elder said and disappeared in blue orbs. I looked to where she was standing. My bangs fell in my eye's.
Loose someone valuable. Who?? Why are they coming here?? Why Friday?? What family would be in danger because of me?? Beacuse of what i am……. Or who I am??
Who am i now?? Am I Human Bella mixed with a new Witch Bella..................or have i changed enough to go from fragile Human Bella to go Witch Paige.......??......... A completely different person???? Who am I???
What i do know is Piper was right. I haven't been the little sister they need. I've been snappy and sarcastic. Not talking to them if possible. I was drowning myself in demon's and Prue. I was spending a lot of time apart from my sister's and trying to find……………… something……..
………………………..Who was i now……???…………I'm not the same fragile human girl that fell in love with a vampire, but yet I am….......someone….. I can't let Bella go, but I have to be Paige now. Bella couldn't survive this, but Paige has to. For her sister's, her nephew's, Leo's sake, Billie, the inoccents and my charges.
I hate how I am acting and how I am thinking. But what can I do??
Great, more identity issues................. I guess the question is now...............
Can i be a mix of Human Bella and Witch Bella or am I Paige, and never can be Bella again??? Did i losse that much of myself that i can't even pretend for my family now???
More identity issues and I hate it, am I Bella or Paige now??
(((((A.N.: I hope i lived up to you're hopes. The point of the chapter is too show that Paige isn't notcing much and can't be anyone anymore. Can she Bella, a witch/whitelighter/sister, or Paige, a new person that is fearless and notices nothing?? I know a lot of you, if not all of you know who the family will be, but my ending will totally shock you, i hope. I accept flames, thought's, compliment's, complaint's, idea's and whatever else you wolud like to say. Thank you. 'End of A.N.')))))
