Thank you to all my faithful reviewers! I'm am soo sorry that it has taken me soo long to update! Writer's Block has been terrible for this poor story, and I am finally able to update! So here is chapter seven of Path :D
Penny's POV
As Patty and Victor went out of the room, I huddled all the girls to the kitchen. Any excuse to have them not thinks about the demon that they had to vanquish. I hope none of them get any nightmares from this. Of course Piper wanted to help mix the cookies, she is most definitely going to go into cooking when she is older. I looked at the timer for the cookies, and Victor and Patty were still talking. As soon as the cookies were done, I moved them to a cooling rack, and put the hot cookie sheets to a place where my granddaughters couldn't reach them. "Now, when those cookies are done cooling off, you girls can have one." Paige started to get fussy; I thought that Paige needed to be changed.
I picked her up and headed towards the stairs, and I unintentionally listened in on their conversation. As I leaned into the conversation, I saw the love in Victor's eyes. He has really changed since leaving them. Maybe over the years I have been too harsh on him. Victor may be good enough for my daughter. I looked at Paige, and she looked really uncomfortable and suddenly orbs surrounded me, and the next thing I know, I was in the attic where the diaper-changing table was. I smiled at my youngest granddaughter and proceeded onto changing her.
She smiled contently and looked at the Book of Shadows, and she gurgled at it, causing it to orb to a page, on the book. "What are you up to Missy Paige?" I asked her, but she just pointed to the book. "Alright, let's see what you want me to look at." I picked her up from the changing table, and walked over to the pedestal. "Hand fastening?" How does Paige know what this is? "Sweetie, I do not know why you orbed the Book to this page. She waved at the book again, causing to orb to another page. The Truth Spell…Fine, I'll re-word it, to show what they have is true love.
"For True lovers, who want their love to reveal, unlock hearts secrets revealed, Let what was once unknown, now be shown," I recited after changing the spell around. Hopefully it will help Patty get insight on how much Victor has truly changed.
Patty's POVThe room fell into complete, and total uncomfortable silence. I just stared out the window. I am really not sure what I felt. Raw, powerful, and un-channeled emotions flew through me. Anger, that I couldn't choose Victor, just because I am afraid. Fear mixed in with that anger. What if I do go back to him, and he runs off again, because of me being a witch? This entire bag of emotions going through me, and yet it has just seemed like I had forgotten about Sam. I want to be with Victor, every night and every day, I knew that in my mind, but I pushed that away. Suddenly, white lights enveloped me, and the next thing I know, it felt like I was in total euphoria, and I also felt everyone's mind.
One problem though, which had taken me awhile to notice, that I was on the floor, in a semi-unconscious state. I vaguely heard Victor saying my name, and I tried to answer. I could feel his emotions, pouring into me. Sadness, from my rejection of coming back together, worry for me, but what I felt most out of all those emotions, was love. It was pouring out of him, and it was all for our daughters and me.
Victor's POVWhat the hell is happening? We were talking, then we stopped. The next thing I know, she is falling on the floor, blank stare on her face, and I couldn't understand what was happening. I desperately wanted to call for Penny, since she knew all this magic mumbo jumbo, but I didn't want to scare my girls. All I could do was watch the woman staring blankly back at me. After about a minute, life flooded back into her eyes. Whatever happened must have scared the living hell out of her, because all she did was wrap her arms around me. She pulled away after a moment. "Victor, I have been a fool," Now I was confused.
"About what?" I asked.
"Not forgiving you." She whispered. "You would have forgiven me if I was in your position. Whatever that was I went through made me realize that, even though I may have some feelings for Sam still-," which made me kind of sting inside, "but I am afraid Vic, I don't want to get you back just to leave. That was what was preventing me, from admitting my heart's desire."
"Patty, as I told you before I made the biggest mistake walking out on you and the girls, and I have regretted it since day one. I am never doing that again. No demon is ever going to drive me away. Not ever again," After months of wanting and needing, we finally were able to do what I wanted to do since I left. Besides just the simple hug, and the kiss, just being back here with her has fulfilled my happiest dreams of returning to her. After we pulled away I tenderly said, "I love you,"
"I love you too," Just as she closed in for a kiss, little Piper came walking in.
"Gwams, can we have a cookie now?" Piper asked, and saw me and Patty kissing. She just looked at us, confusion entering on her six year old face. Penny instantly came downstairs when she saw me and Patty kissing. I saw a small smile, hidden in her features, but quickly covered them after she caught me looking. Suddenly clarity hit little Piper's face. "Is Daddy here to stay?"
I turned to Patty, and she nodded, "Come here you," I said to Piper and she scuttled over to me, and I pulled her into a hug, "I am here to stay Piper, don't you worry.
Ok, I am gonna end it here before it gets too mushy :DSorry! Anyways, hope you are looking forward to a wedding chapter coming up next. As always reviews appreciated :D
