It has jumped about five years…when Paige is old enough to know that Victor isn't her real father.

Victor's POV

I smiled staring at our recent family photo. Paige was in the middle me and Patty holding her on our laps, with Phoebe right next to her, arms tightly hugging her youngest sister. Prue had her hand on my shoulder; her hair was so much longer than it was when she was younger. She looked so much like Patty, as did Piper. Piper was next to Patty head on her shoulder. . Penny was right next to us, wrapping an arm around Piper. "Hey you…" Patty said, wrapping her arms around my shoulders. "That is a good picture of us isn't it?" Patty said smiling at the picture.

"Yeah…" I said also grinning still.

"Daddy…" I heard Paige's voice coming down from below me. Smiling I bent down to Paige's level.

"Hey Paigey girl…" I said giving her a smile.

"How come I am the only one that orbs?" Paige asked me. Now this is the kind of question I get stumped on.

"What do you mean?" I asked her.

"When I move stuff…things orb…why isn't Prue's, or Piper, or Phoebe's powers…tied to orbing?" I turned to Patty…was this the time to tell Paige that I wasn't her biological father? Before I could answer, I heard Prue coming down the stairs.

"Ok…I am going to go to Andy's," Prue said quickly. Something wasn't right with what she was wearing.

"Wait a minute young lady…" I said walking towards her. She stopped and I knew she was rolling her eyes at me. "Let me see what you are wearing," I said turning her around. Too short of a mini skirt, tank top…and is that makeup? I am not letting my little girl go out into the world looking like that. "You need to change…"

"No," Prue said automatically. "It's just a date Dad," Prue snapped, rolling her eyes

"That is more of a reason to change," I said and she rolled her eyes, not very happy that she needed to change.

"Fine…" she sighed, and trudged back upstairs. I turned back to Patty, and Paige and I saw Paige looking at us expectantly.

"Mommy…" Paige sighed, and I guess it is time for us to tell Paige I am not her biological dad…I hope she'll take it ok. "Why did you and Daddy go all silent?" I picked up Paige, and put her on the couch. My hands started to sweat as I tried to think of what to say to Paige.

Patty's POV

I could tell how scared Victor was of losing Paige. Victor had developed a great relationship with all of our daughters. Paige had grown really attached to Victor…and we still haven't told her about Sam. I'm sorry Sam…I do want your daughter to know about you…I didn't want to tell her this early. "Paige…" I stopped, not entirely sure what to say to my youngest daughter.

"Mommy…did I say something wrong?" Paige asked.

"No sweetie…you didn't" I told her.

"Mommy…why is my question hard to answer?" she asked me.

"It's just a sore subject sweetie…" I sighed, grabbing Victor's hand. "The reason why Prue, Piper, or Phoebe can't orb is because that…Daddy is not your…real Daddy…"

Paige's POV

What does that mean? Daddy isn't my real Daddy? "What…what does that mean?" I am so confused.

"Your real Daddy…he is up in heaven…he did it to protect you," Mommy tried to explain to me.

"Then why did you lie to me about all this? You guys taughted me not to lie…that was the first rule…" I whispered sadly.

"Paige…you have to understand…" Daddy…no…I don't even know what to call him anymore. I am so confused…I don't understand. "Paigey…" he saw me crying…and he reached his hand out towards me, but I shrinked away from him. I closed my eyes and orbed into me and Phoebe's room.

"Hey Paige," Phoebe greeted, brushing her hair. I turned away and went onto my bed, holding a teddy bear in my arms.

Prue's POV

I sighed, getting out of my clothes again. God I can't get anything past the Fashion Police, AKA worried Daddy. God he can trust Andy…and me. Taking a once over on my clothes, I walked out of my room and was about to head downstairs when I heard Paige crying. I stopped and went back towards Paige and Phoebe's room. I knocked on their door and walked in. Phoebe had our youngest sister in a hug.

"What's the matter?" I asked walking towards Paige and Phoebe

"I don't know…Paige orbed in crying," Phoebe informed me.

"Paige…sweetie what happened?" I asked pulling her away from Phoebe and I rubbed Paige's back.

"Mommy and Daddy said…that Daddy wasn't my real Daddy…"Paige sobbed. They did what? Ok…Prue calm down, you need to comfort your baby sister.

"Paige…" I whispered.

"Did you guys know about it to?" Paige asked pulling away from me.

"Paige…"

"You guys did know…" Paige whispered. "Why couldn't you tell me?" Paige cried.

"We didn't want you to get hurt sweetie," Piper's voice came out from behind me. Piper walked to us. "I know you are hurting right now…but you have to know…ever since I have been able to write and read…me, grams, Mom, and Prue have been trying to get your real Daddy back…"

"But our Daddy…he loves you like you are his own…" Phoebe reminded her. Paige stayed silent, and I pulled Piper and Phoebe away from Paige.

"Ok…you guys comfort Paige…I am going to go yell at our parents," I said walking out of their room. I stormed down the stairs, and gave each mom and dad a withering glare. "What were you two thinking?" I snapped at them, automatically assuming that they knew what I was talking about.

"Well…I wanted you to change…" Dad started, "And I think you need to change again missy," I looked down at myself, and rolled my eyes.

"Dad…" I said darkly.

"Prue, sweetie your Dad is right…you can't go out dressed like that," motioning towards some of my stomach showing.

"Ok…lets not talk about me right now. What were you two thinking you could tell Paige that he isn't her real dad?" I shot pointing towards Victor. "She is just a kid…"

"As are you," Mom calmly reminded me. "Paige asked why she was the only one who had powers tied in with orbing of some sort…so we had to tell her the truth Prue," I sighed…and forced myself to calm down.

"Ok…but Paige is up in her room crying right now…she has no idea what to think about what you guys told her," I informed them.

Victor's POV

I let out a small sigh, and ran a hand through my hair. Patty wrapped her hand around one of mine. Prue's face softened, and she wrapped her arms around my waist. "Don't worry Dad…Paige will come around. She loves you too much not to," I wrapped my daughter in a hug, thanking her. I am hoping Prue is right about Paige; I love Paige like she was one of my own.

"Thank you Prue," I whispered, kissing the top of her hair.

"Maybe I should just not go over to Andy's house…" Prue said after pulling away.

"No Prue…me and Dad can handle this. Go ahead and hang out with Andy," Patty said, shooing Prue away.

"If you guys are sure…" Prue said reluctantly, heading for the door.

"Wait…you should," but I heard the door close and sighed. She needed to change her clothes again.

"Girls will be girls Victor," Patty said simply, patting my shoulder.

"Patty…what about Paige…" I couldn't stand it if I lost Paige. I had lost all of my daughter's trust once…now what about Paige? Patty pulled me in for a hug, and I held her close.

"Don't worry…it will work out…" Patty told me, as we held each other in a tight embrace. "I'll try and calm her down…" Patty said after a moment pulling away. I nodded and sat on the couch.

Piper's POV

I walked over to my sisters and embraced them both into a hug. "Where is my real Daddy?"

"Your Daddy is up there," I said pointing up to the ceiling.

"My Daddy is in the ceiling?" she asked in a confused voice. I really shouldn't be the one explaining this to her, Mom or Grams should be explaining this, not me and Phoebe.

"No…your Daddy is…"I was about to finish my sentence when I saw Mom walk in.

"Girls…I want to talk to Paige alone…ok?"

Phoebe and I nodded our heads and I reluctantly detangled myself from Paige and walked out of Paige's room.

Patty's POV

I walked over to Paige who was once again latching herself to her teddy bear. "Paige…sweetie…" I called out softly. She turned away from my voice and I sighed, sitting down next to her on the bed, rubbing her back gently.

"Who is my real Daddy?" Paige asked after a moment. I stayed silent for a moment and she turned around to face me.

"Your real Daddy's name is Sam Wilder…he was my Whitelighter…so that is why your powers are tied in with orbing…" Paige nodded, and I cleared my throat before continuing. "When you were born…the bosses of Whitelighters called Elders, wanted to take you away from me and Sam…but he went willingly and saved you, so you could live a normal life."

"When did…Victor…" she started, and she barely said his name right, "come back?" It felt weird hearing Paige calling Victor by his name, and not Daddy.

"Well…I guess I should tell you about why Victor left…" I really hate calling him Victor for Paige. "He couldn't understand my magic…and after a while, got fed up with it, despite wanting to be with me and your sisters…."

"And you let him come back into your lives? Right after Daddy left? He is a mean man…he doesn't deserve to be here with us," Paige sobbed.

"Paige…when Victor did come back…he instantly fell in love with you. He accepted you into his heart…"

"He is not my Daddy…"

"In his heart he views you as his daughter…" I tried saying, but Paige turned away from me.

"I don't want him as my Daddy…I want my Daddy," Paige said tears streaming down her porcelain face.

Victor's POV

I sighed getting up from the couch. "Hey girls," I said trying to hide my depression from them with a big smile. They both enfolded me into a hug and I hugged them back. "Why don't you girls go play outside…I have to go talk to Mommy ok?" I said pulling away. Phoebe and Piper nodded and I headed up the stairs towards Paige and Phoebe's room. I was about to walk in…when I stopped and started to listen in…

Paige called me Victor…and it sounded like she…doesn't even want me in her life anymore. The better part of me knew I should turn away before I heard something that would really hurt me, but the stronger part of me wanted to stay and listen to what Paige had to say about me. "He is not my Daddy…" I felt tears stinging at the corners of my eyes and I barely resisted the urge to let them fall. Patty tried to defend me…but Paige doesn't want me anymore…she wants Sam back. I should have known that in the end, Paige was going to choose her real dad over me…

I walked away from Paige's room and headed towards Patty's and my own room and sat down on the bed, running my hands over my face. I laid back on my bed and inhaled slowly. I knew this day was coming…and I guess I should have prepared for it.

Patty's POV

"Paige…I am going to go take your sisters out for a while with Grams…but I want you to stay…"

"Stay with someone who lied to me all my life," Paige muttered.

"Paige…I want you to stay with him ok?" I told her turning her to face me. Paige didn't look too happy about it. "No orbing out of the house either,"

"But Mommy," Paige said, but I shook my head. "Ok…" she said a pout on her face.

"Thank you…" I knew she wouldn't orb out of the house, so I just had to get Piper and Phoebe out of the house for a while, and let Victor have some alone time with Paige. I headed back downstairs, but saw Victor was in our room. Did he hear anything of what Paige said about him? He must of heard my footsteps and he instantly snapped up from his bed, and had a neutral smile on his face. "Victor…" I wasn't sure if I should ask how much of the conversation that he heard…since he probably overheard all of the mean things Paige had said.

"How did the talk with Paige go?" he asked, and I knew he overheard everything. His face, even though he was desperately trying to show he wasn't hurt. I just wrapped him into a hug. After a moment, I pulled away and sighed.

"Victor…I think you should stay here with Paige for a while. I'll go get the girls out of the house, and we'll come back later…"

"Are you sure that is that good of an idea?" Victor asked taking one of my hands. I patted his hands, hoping I was doing the right thing.

"Lets just try it, and see if it works out ok?" I asked putting a gentle kiss on his lips. Victor relented and nodded his head. "I love you,"

"Love you too," Victor whispered, and I headed down to go get Piper and Phoebe. I found them in the kitchen grabbing some water.

"Phoebe…Piper…" I started but Phoebe instantly was next to me.

"Is Daddy ok?" she asked me. "Did I do something to make Daddy sad?" she asked. Aw…Phoebe thought she did something to make Victor sad.

"No Phoebe…you nor Piper did anything to make your Daddy sad…we are just going to go out for a while ok?" I said taking Piper and Phoebe's hands.

"What about Paige?" Piper asked as we headed for the front door.

"Paige is going to stay with Daddy…" I said not wanting to explain.

"Mommy…I am not sure if Paige wants to be with Daddy…she was really upset," Piper said as we left.

"She'll calm down…" I assured her. Well I hope she would…

Victor's POV

Patty left and I sighed. This was going to be a fun evening. I started to head downstairs, but stopped. I wanted to talk with Paige still she was just a kid. Walking towards her room I saw her crawled in her bed, clutching desperately onto her teddy bear. She was breathing deeply, and I could tell she was trying to go to sleep. Still I walked into her room, and gently pulled her covers over her, and lightly kissed her on the head. She shirked away from me, and I sighed, "I'll be downstairs if you need me ok?" She nodded, and I sadly walked out of the room.

Walking downstairs, I headed towards the kitchen to grab a snack for myself.

Paige's POV

As Da…Victor tucked me in, I pulled away from him. I could tell he was sad…but I want my real Daddy…I clutched onto my teddy bear really tight. Why couldn't I have my real Daddy? I turned and faced my wall, trying to think about what was going on. I mean…he sounded really sad when he told me he was going downstairs. I pulled myself out of bed, and started to go downstairs.

"Hello little one," a voice appeared from behind me, and I stopped dead in my tracks. I turned around a let out a scream, "DADDY!"

Victor's POV

I paced around in the kitchen, trying to think of something else besides Paige's words flying over and over in my head. Just as I was about to sit down and try to calm down, when all the sudden I heard Paige's terrified scream, "DADDY!" and instantly I sprinted back up the stairs and all I saw was an energy ball heading towards Paige, and I threw myself in front of her, fronting all of the blow so Paige wouldn't get hurt. I crashed into the wall. "Aww…sweet of Daddy to defend the poor little half breed,"

"Stay away from my daughter," I growled at the demon, trying to get a good look at it, but my vision started to fade out. The demon headed for Paige again and instantly I shot out and grabbed a hold of him. "Paige orb out of here!" I shouted. Paige stayed where she was, scared, and shrinking towards the wall. The demon effortlessly threw me off of him, and I painfully thudded against the wall.

"Daddy!" she cried and tried to come after me, but squealed as the demon went towards her again. She let out a squeal, and orbs surrounded her. Hopefully she orbed to Patty, or Penny…or just anywhere far away from here. I was about to let out a sigh of relief, but when I saw a small set of orbs, and Paige reappeared next to me. "Daddy…come on…" she whispered, grabbing my arm trying to pull me up.

"Big mistake little girl," the demon said and instantly I grabbed a hold of Paige.

"Get out of here Paigey…" I whispered, cringing in pain where my back had hit the wall.

"Not without my Daddy," she whispered to me. I gave her a weak smile.

"Paige…you need to go," I told her weakly, as the world started to spin. Paige started to glow and suddenly orbs formed into a shield, and I felt Paige wrap her arms around me, as I entered into unconsciousness.
