Back At School and an Older Sisters Threat
A/n: Here's the new update. Sorry for the wait! I've had major writers block!
The next morning, Alex came to pick Paige and Piper up from the hospital. Paige, now on crutches, was extremely thankful for her orbing power because she couldn't get upstairs without it. They arrived a few moments later and got Paige settled in on the couch. Skyler frowned at her and toddled up on the couch.
"Paypay otay?" she asked in a small voice. Paige nodded sleepily at the child and yawned, causing the same effect on the tiny toddler. They both fell asleep curled together on the couch.
On Monday, Paige got up and did her modified routine. She orbed all her stuff downstairs and ate some breakfast. Piper, Phoebe, and Prue were all there and ready to go. Phoebe would be accompanying Paige to school that day to monitor her pain meds and to keep an unofficial eye out for the guy, Michael, who attacked her little sister. The empath helped her only younger sister out to the car. They tossed their bags into the back seat and drove off to SFU. They arrived some twenty minutes later, actually early. Phoebe looked around.
"So what's your first class?" she asked Paige. The witchlighter was grabbing her bag and crutches out of the backseat. They walked over to the Social Sciences wing, and got settled into Psych. Paige looked around, nervously fiddling with the silver chain around her neck. Phoebe noticed this and followed Paige's eyes to find a young man with dark blond hair and sinister hazel eyes. Phoebe raised an eyebrow and nudged her sister.
"Is that him? The evil looking dude two rows down and 3 seats over?" she asked. The injured Charmed One nodded. Phoebe opened her empath senses, letting her scan him. She bit her lip. The professor walked in and started the class. The empath looked around the room, trying to spot Paige's friends.
"Are any of your friends in this class?" she asked. The younger one nodded.
"Sara, Amy, John, Kyle, Jase, and Ashley," she listed off. Phoebe smiled, immediately locating them. Paige begins to sign to them, causing the older one to raise an eyebrow.
"You can sign?" she asked dubiously. Paige smiled and gave a light laugh.
"Amy and Sara's younger sister, the one I babysit for, is 90 percent deaf in both ears. So, I've know sign language since I was 8. That's when I met the two girls," she replied. Phoebe nodded, slightly confused. Paige started on the assignment.
At the end of class, Paige and Phoebe walked up to the group of friends.
"Hey, Paige. I'll meet you at your next class in ten minutes ok. I need to... use the bathroom," Phoebe lied. Her younger sister nodded, and walked off with John, Jase, and Ashley. Phoebe waited around for a moment, and spotted Michael Porter. She took a deep breath and walked up to him.
"I need to talk to you," she said under her breath. The evil man nodded and walked away from his jock friends.
"If you EVER lay another hand on my SISTER, I will personally guarantee you at least 5 years in prison. Do you understand me?" she threatened him. He nodded, slightly scared of the power the small brunette was showing off. She stalked off, leaving the blond trembling slightly behind her. She found her way to Paige's Spanish 6 class and settled in just as the bell rang. Paige raised an eyebrow at her, but said nothing otherwise. Phoebe closed her eyes and took a short nap, as she was the Italian speaker, not the Spanish one, in the family. Paige chuckled slightly before listening to Profesora Ramirez. Ashley raised an eyebrow at the sleeping empath.
"The kids don't allow her much sleep anymore," she said. Ashley chuckled slightly at the blatantly drooling girl.
As it turns out, Spanish was her last class of the day, so the sisters headed home after that. They opened the door and immediately started laughing. Alex was sleeping on the sofa with a brownie in her mouth and two children sitting on her stomach. Skyler and Preston smiled at them as they walked in.
"I have a funny idea," Paige whispered. Phoebe nodded and they set the two babies on the floor. Phoebe filled a bucket with water and smiled a little evilly. She channeled Prue's power and lifted the bucket over her head. She tipped it over on the sleeping blond. She shot up.
"OLIVIA NICOLE BENSON! I TOLD YOU NOT TO DUMP WATER ON ME ANYMORE!" she shouted. The kids giggled happily and Phoebe and Paige laughed at the sopping wet blond.
"So Liv has employed this tactic before?" the younger one asked through her laughs. The Bureau Chief blew her bangs out of her face and got up off the couch. She stalked towards Phoebe with a look on her face that scared the crap out of the empath. Phoebe orbed away moments before the lawyer pounced on her. The young one tried to help her up, but ended up falling on her bruised ribs. The young one curled into the fetal position. Alex knelt down to help her.
"PHOEBE!" she yelled in a slight panic, as she tended to do. The empath ran down the steps, and seeing her sister on the floor, fished out Paige's medicine, and popped two pills into her sisters mouth. She rubbed her throat until the little one swallowed and fell asleep. Phoebe carried the injured one upstairs and placed her in her bed. She walked downstairs to find Alex in dry clothes, sitting on the couch. Phoebe sat next to her.
"Its not your fault Lex. It was an accident," she said, wrapping her in a hug. Alex nodded, calming down from the Empaths presence.
A/N: Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Buon Natale! Have a great day. I hope you loved the chapter.
