Sam intellect knew why Piper gave Victor Paige's room for the night. He did. Sam slammed his fists into the all ready flattened pillow.

"Paige is … was … is my daughter. Not Victors." Sam slammed his fists repeating as he said this. "I should be in Paige's room tonight; I should be smelling my daughter's last scent. Not Victor.

"Victor, who would have denied Paige, her rightful place in her mother's life; had Patty lived." Sam new this not to be true. But he found it easier to be angry than to have to deal with the overwhelming grief.

IN PAIGE'S ROOM

I shouldn't be here. I have no right to be here. Paige wasn't my daughter. I know that Piper gave me the room, because Prue spent the rest of her life, after Piper and Leo got married, in here. I left the night of Pure's funeral, so I didn't get the chance to say a final good – bye to Prue in her bedroom. Victor got off of the couch that was next to the bed.

I lost my chance with Prue. I won't allow Sam to lose his chance with Paige. Victor left the bedroom.

DOWN STAIRS

PUNCH, SLAM, PUNCH

"Sam." Victor said walking into the living room.

PUNCH

"Sam." Victor said a little louder. He knew better than to place a hand on the white lighter's shoulders.

"What do you want?" Sam grunted as he tossed the pillow aside.

"I wanted to tell you I'm taking the couch tonight." Victor said.

"What." Sam stare unbelieving up at Victor.

"Go to Paige's room." Victor gently said.

"Piper gave you Paige's room tonight. NOT ME. Her father." Sam stood up. "Piper gave her father my daughter's room; on the night of my daughter's funeral nerveless."

Victor stayed where he was. "Keep it coming Sam. Let it all out."

"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Sam screamed.

PIPER'S OFFICE P3

Tears rolled unheeded down Chris's checks.

"I'm so sorry Aunt Paige. I – I didn't mean for this to happen." Chris stared up at the ceiling. He knew that they could hear him up there. So he was able to mix a blocking post ion.

"But with your death that means she won't die." Chris wiped his checks as he sat up. "Doesn't it?"

PHOEBE'S BEDROOM

Phoebe stared at the wall. She held Paige's favorite sweater in her hands. "Why can't I get a premonition?" Angry tears crept into her eyes.

WYATT'S NURSERY

Piper leaned against the door that led to Wyatt's nursery from her bedroom. She watched her only son sleep thru dried eyes.

Piper hadn't shed a tear since the moment when she realized that Paige was truly dead. She forbid herself to shed any tears of grief for Paige.

If Piper allowed grief in, than Paige was really dead, gone, to never return. Piper refused to lose another of her sisters. Another family member to the all mighty Elders!

HALLWAY

"SHUT THE HELL UP!" echoed off the walls.

Piper opened her door and quickly shut it before Sam's screaming woke Wyatt.

Phoebe joined Piper in the hall as they listened wide eyed.

DOWN STAIRS

"WHERE DO YOU GET OFF TELLING ME TO LET IT ALL OUT! I'M THE ONE WHO LOST HIS DAUGHTER. THE DAUGHTER WHO HE JUST REUNINTED WITH! Sam screamed getting red faced and bugged eyed.

"Lower your voice Sam." Victor said.

"NO!" Sam roared. "HOW DARE YOU TELL ME TO LOWER MY VOICE! I DON'T GIVE A FREAKING CARE IF THE STUPID, SELFFISH ELDERS HEAR ME!"

"What about my daughters and my grandson?" Victor asked.

Sam suddenly rushed at Victor and slugged Victor in the chin. The rave and anger finally found its home. Sam rained punches on Victor.

"Oh my God." Phoebe cried as she rushed down the stairs behind Piper.

The two Halliwell sisters stop at the shake of Victor's head.

Sam suddenly stepped away from Victor breathing heavily.

"Is that all you have in you Sam?" Victor spat out the blood that welled up in his mouth.

Sam rushed and rammed his head into Victor's solid chest.

Victor stepped back a step but stayed up right. He waited for even more blows.

Sam broke down with heart wrenching sobs. He wrapped his arms around Victor and cried on the other man's right shoulder.

Victor grabbed hold of the white lighter allowing Sam's heart wrenching tears to soak his cotton pajama long sleeved top.

Piper turned eyes dried and went into the kitchen. She knew that tea was in order that night.

Phoebe wrapped her arms around herself as she allowed her tears to fall.

END PART TWELVE

Author's Note: I know white lighters are 'angels'. That's why I didn't have Sam cussing when he screamed.

But what a wonderful powerful moment between Sam and Victor.
