Chap.5

Last Time:

The black haired man was thrown into yet another wall. Kris cried out trying to break out of the tight hold of his father's arms, he yelled out to Joshua but got no response. He felt tears burning at the back of his eyes. He elbowed his father's gut and ran forward. "Josh," he whispered once he had made it to his side, "I'm so sorry,"

The black haired man smiled up at him, "Nothing to be sorry for," he whispered his voice horse, "I knew what I was getting myself into."

"I love you so much," Kris chocked out, crying for once in front of his father, "You can't leave me." He felt something be pressed into his hand; he looked down and blinked four times.

"I was going to ask you," Joshua said, "I was going to ask you to marry me," Kris bit his lip, "Just tell me your answer,"

"Of course," Kris whispered.

"Finish what we started, baby. Go back before he can stop you again. Save him, you, me, everyone who has died fighting here." Kris nodded and kissed Joshua for one last time…

Kris woke up with a jerk; he gasped for air and looked around. Wyatt was still sleeping and he felt a glassy tear slip out. He leaned down and pressed his head into his father's chest. What kind of nightmares were those?

End Last Time.

"Dad!" Morgan Halliwell yelled at the top of her lungs as Kris ran after her. Wyatt appeared raising an eyebrow at his kids.

"Give it back!" Kris yelled at his little sister as she ran over to their father; she was holding a dark green notebook, one that was obviously very personal. Wyatt snatched the notebook out of his youngest hands.

"What's this?" Wyatt asked in a teasing manner. Kris glared angrily at his father, he needed that notebook. Wyatt wouldn't read it, would he?

"Please dad." Kris begged almost dropping down onto his knees.

Wyatt smiled amused, "Here," he handed it back to Kris, "what's so important about it anyway?" Kris' gaze fell down onto the floor.

"Nothing. Just some thoughts is all." His father's gaze turned concerned.

"If anything's bothering you Kris, you can tell me."

Kris smiled, "I know dad, thanks." With that said, he ran up the stairs, closing his bedroom door behind him. This notebook, it held all of his most complex thoughts, and now it held the dreams. Aunt Phoebe told him that it helped if you wrote things down; that it would help you understand some things. Kris was already confused as it was. His father was not, nor could he ever be evil. Therefore, he dismissed them as simple nightmares. However, they seemed so real, they weren't vague at all. He could feel the emotions, the pain, and he could swear that if it was not for Joshua and his father's constant company that he would probably had gone back to anorexia. He wouldn't be proud of it, no, but he would probably do it.

Other than that, Christmas had past, as did January and February, now they were in the mist of March and Kris could feel some gnawing feeling in the pit of his stomach. Something was going to happen, what though? He flopped down onto his bed and stopped himself from thinking any farther. Nothing was going to happen. However, being raised a Halliwell you learned things, like whenever your life seemed to be going perfect, something just had to come and ruin it all. That something came in the form of demons and Joshua…

Kris placed his head onto Joshua's shoulder and sighed, today was going fine. Maybe he was getting too paranoid. He remembered what his grandmother had said to him earlier in the year… "You're so much like Prue. Don't let them take your life to soon either. Don't let magic become the only thing you have left in your life." He didn't understand those words than, but now they were clearer than crystal.

"Penny for your thoughts." Joshua's quiet voice cut through Kris' thoughts like a razor.

"Nothing." Kris smiled gently, "I'm just thinking to much."

"So it seems," Joshua muttered, he placed his chin atop Kris' head. "Just don't hurt yourself."

"Ahh, fuck off." Kris said good naturally. Joshua laughed and trusted himself to peck Kris' head. Kris gazed up at him, and Joshua leaned down to kiss him. Their lips met softly, and Kris felt the feeling of a blossoming flower in the pit of his stomach hit him once more. Joshua pushed himself onto Kris, allowing the younger of the two to fall back onto the bed. The TV was turned on and the door was closed, no one would think anything of it. Kris felt Joshua's hands begin to wander, his logical side of his brain argued with the illogical to have Joshua stop. The logical said that it was illegal, which was, of course, true, what they were doing (and had done nearly twice before) was statutory rape. Joshua was eighteen, Kris was only sixteen.

However, the illogical part had a good point. They had done this before, and they would use a condom. Nothing was wrong with doing it. They knew all the risks, didn't they? Moreover, Wyatt, his own father, had done it when he was fifth teen! But, the logical part argued back, he had regretted it, he had gotten a girl pregnant and he had become a father at 15. Not that he didn't love Kris very much; he just wishes that he never did it.

Kris moaned into the touch and felt Joshua chuckle… soon though they were interrupted, by whom but Mr. Demon of the week, Dead-Eye. He opened his hand to show a fireball, he released it at the two boys. Kris felt his breath catch, he flicked his hand, and boom! The demon disappeared in a flash of red lights. Kris knew he'd be back, but at least he was gone for a moment.

Joshua backed away from Kris, his hand shook and he pointed at Kris. "What, what are you?"

"Josh please." Kris tried to reason.

"NO! What are you!?"

"I'm a witch Josh."

"A- a witch!" Joshua ran out of the room, disbelieving what he just heard. Kris ran out after him.

"Josh Please! Let me explain!" He couldn't stop him though. Joshua ran right out of the house, and slammed the door closed behind him. Kris couldn't help himself, he felt as if a part of him had ran away with Joshua, and he fell into his father's arms, allowing himself to cry openly. When Wyatt had appeared he had no idea, all he knew was that his very world was collapsing around him. That he couldn't breathe. He couldn't help but feel angry, he couldn't help but feel as if a piece of his heart was ripped out and thrown away into the trash. That was the end of his first love, however if that was the end, than what about that vision? That dream? Joshua said that he loved him, that he knew what he was getting himself into. Nevertheless, that is all that one was… a dream…

Later that night, Kris was finally asleep, but it was not a welcome sleep, it was painful…
"Get back here Kris!" The man, who has yet a name, yelled joyfully at the young half- white lighter.

"And what! Not allow myself happiness! Isn't this what you wanted for me?" Kris yelled back laughing despite himself. For once he was having fun, having fun in the past. He never had fun here.

The older man scowled and disappeared in a blur of lights, appearing not a second later in front of the eighteen year old. He caught Kris around the waist and pulled him into an upright position. Kris smiled up at the older man. The man sighed and wiped a piece of strawberry blonde hair out of his eyes. He sighed, his brown eyes holding sympathy. Kris' smile disappeared. "What?" He asked feeling his good mood slip off his face.

"About yesterday," Kris swallowed and looked down nervously; he did not want to talk about it. "About what you said. Kris, I don't want to hurt you. But I'm afraid that may be all your grandparents are looking for."

Kris shook his head desperately, no, he would not believe it. "No, it's all Piper and Leo are looking for. Not my grandparents." The older man gave him a strange look.

"Their the same per-"

"No," Kris interrupted, "No their not. I managed to separate my grandparents from the people here. Plus, all Leo ever wanted in either time was to hurt me."

"Kris-" The man said.

"No! Listen to me, Harrison! They are NOT the same person!" Kris said to the blonde angrily, "They NEVER will be!" and he orbed away.

He woke up with a start and sighed. Who was Harrison?

The next day Kris sighed and threw his head onto his arm, this was the worst day of his life. God, he missed Joshua. But he could not help wondering if Joshua really did love him. Or was in it just for the sex? He sighed, this was too much... this was all too much…
(Up In Elder Land)
"You are to be his white lighter." Stated one of the Elders, Frank he thought, from the top of the court like stands. The blonde gave the Elder a weird look; he narrowed his eyes at the brightness of the room.

"Really you guys have to lower down the lighting up here. Imagine how much the electric bill must be." Harrison said scowling at the Elders, it was meant to be a joke, but he guessed that the 'Elders' did not have much of a sense of humor.

"Not now, Douer," One of the old men spit out. Hmm, Harrison thought, wonder why they have no women on this counsel. "You will go down there immediately."

"And tell the kid what? Hey, Kris! I'm Harrison, your new white lighter! It sure is a pleasure to meet you. For, like, the second time. Oh yeah, I'm here to stop you from dieing this time around!"

"Harrison." One of the anonymous Elders growled out.

"What?! I want to know what to tell this kid!"

"How about what you told him before." One suggested.

"Yeah, and do you know how well that worked out! He nearly killed me!"

"Don't start Douer."

"Fine!" He gave up, throwing his hands up into the air in surrender. "Fine! Where do I find him? Obviously not the same place I found him before."

"The Halliwell manor, now go."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."

"And remember, we'll be watching."

To Be Continued…

A: N- Hey! Sorry that I didn't update sooner. And I'm sorry Sirin, but that's probably all that will be left of Joshua. I hope you'll still read it though. I realize that these aren't really long chapters, but I'm trying. It's just with school and shit… just a lot's been going on at home, and I have a project for English and two stories, plus some new ones in the making… so yeah, I have a lot going on. I'll try to update sooner!
