Part 2, just like I promised you! Continuation of the father daughter talk and might include Paige, but read to see if it does…

Chapter 8: 'Big Sis, Lil Sis And Dad'

Last Time…

Sam watched Ginny's reaction to his death and the event after.

"Wow," Was the first word out of her mouth. She was thinking it through in her brain, taking it all in. Then she looked up at her father. "Guess working for the law runs in the genes, doesn't it?" She grinned.

Kinetic Tower…

"I guess it does." Sam replied, all nervousness leaving him as he watched Ginny grinning like he had always been part of her life. "But Paige doesn't fit it anywhere."

"I think you'll find that I help the needy everyday." A voice came from behind. They turned but before they saw the figure they both knew it was…

"Paige, hi." Sam said, smiling at his daughter. "What are you doing here? How did you know that I was here?"

"Harry flooed me in the tower, so I thought I'd pop down and see you both." She took a seat next to Sam.

"And by pop in, you mean orb?" Ginny asked with a grin.

"Of course. I didn't want to waste energy running to catch you here when I could orb in a second." Paige frowned. "That makes me sound pretty lazy doesn't it?"

"Yes." Sam and Ginny both said, then they all cracked up.

"So, what were you talking about?" Paige asked.

"About what I was before I was a Whitelighter." Sam replied.

"Which was…?" Paige indicated for him to go on with the story.

"A police officer. I was killed in action. Trying to catch a child attacker." He replied. "I didn't return to England after I became a Whitelighter, too many memories of my life. I moved to New York at first, then in the 20's, I moved over to San Francisco. The 20's were great, there were many parties, especially some unforgettable ones by the cousins who lived at 1329 Prescott Street. Phoebe Russell, Prudence Bowden and Piper Baxter."

"My sister's past lives?" Paige asked. Sam nodded.

"Yes. They held weekly parties, until Phoebe Russell turned up dead in 1924. Strangled to death. I'm sure that you heard what happened from this Phoebe?" Paige nodded. "Well, then there were really no parties in that house until Penny and Jack, her first husband, began to throw Wiccan get togethers in the 60's. I always used a glamour at the parties, a different person each time, but that was the first time I caught a glimpse of your mother. She was only a teenager then, but I fell in love. It was then that I was assigned as her Whitelighter. I watched over her for 10 years, until she realised that I was her Whitelighter. It was then we fell in love."

"We started to see each other behind Victor's back. I hated her being deceitful to him, but she told me not to worry. Then they broke up, she found out she was pregnant and 9 months later, we were blessed with you." Sam's smile dampened a bit. "We knew we couldn't keep you. Within 12 hours of your birth, we gave you to Sister Agnes at the church. But we never forgot you."

"Wow, I never knew all of that." Paige said quietly. Ginny echoed this in her mind. She had learnt about her real father's life in a matter of minutes.

"What did you think of my mum when you first saw her?" Ginny asked.

"Well, I saw something in her that I had only seen with Patty. She had similar eyes, they actually looked very similar except the hair. Patty's was brown, near a black colour, but Molly, her head looked like it was alight. It was a fire red and suited her personality perfectly. Same as you actually." She smiled. "Your smile is the same as hers too."

"I think we should do this more often. Just the three of us. Big sis, lil sis and dad. What do you think, dad?" Paige asked. Inside, Sam was shouting with joy. Paige had actually called him dad! He didn't expect it from Ginny, but from Paige, it was like Christmas had come a few weeks early.

"I'd like that." Ginny said. The two sisters looked at Sam.

"Yeah, I'd like that too." Sam said, failing to hide his huge smile.

"You could come to Godric's Hollow for Christmas? I'm sure Lily and James wouldn't mind, they love having company round." Paige said. "I'll check tonight and then we can get back to you before the end of the week."

Sam thought for a moment. "Victor wouldn't be there would he?"

"I don't know actually. I'll check that too. But will you come anyway?" Paige asked. Sam looked as if he was going to say no before one word changed his mind.

"Please?" Ginny asked her biological father. Sam looked at her and his answer was certain.

"Yes, I will come for Christmas."

Godric's Hollow, Later That Day…

"Yes of course. The more the merrier." Lily said cheerfully to Paige and Ginny. They instantly smiled.

"Thank you so much Lily, you're a great friend." Paige said, giving the pregnant woman a hug. Lily hugged her back.

"Well, he is going to be Harry's future father in law, so we should consider him family." Lily and Paige looked at Ginny's pale face.

"Why does everyone think that me and Harry are going to get married?" She complained. "We've only been going out a few months."

"Ginny, hunny, Potter men always go for red heads. You and Harry are a great couple and you are going out. All these signs point towards wedding bells." Lily said. "But watch out for them, when you marry one, you never can get rid of them. They seem like little lost puppy dogs. Or maybe that's just James…" Lily paused, looking thoughtful. But she only did this because of a certain eavesdropper.

"Oi, Lily!" James said, walking into the corner of the library the three women were currently situated. "I resent that!"

"James, I agree with her. She has you whipped." Sirius leaned on a book shelf, having followed his friend.

"Sirius, you would do best to shut your mouth!" Lily snapped at him. Sirius paled. Lily was more angry only one other time. When she was pregnant with Harry. And an argument with a pregnant Lily Potter was a lost battle.

"Yes Lily." He said sulkily. James laughed.

"Now who has who whipped?" He taunted his best friend.

"James…" Lily growled. "Don't. Even. Start."

James paled to Sirius's colour. He, like Sirius, knew not to argue with Lily when she was pregnant. "I'm sorry Lils."

"Just go." Lily said. Sirius was about to argue back when James grabbed his hand.

"Going." And he orbed himself and Sirius away from the library.

Lily smiled. "Those guys are so easy to control. Just act pissed and they stay away." She gave away her words of wisdom to the two half sisters.

"So, you really weren't pissed off then?" Paige asked.

"Not as much as I acted." Lily grinned, then rested a hand on her small bump. "But I can blame it on the hormones. And this little girl of mine."

"Have you decided on a name yet?" Ginny asked, changing the subject to Harry's new sister.

"Well, James said that since Harry had his father's first name for a middle name, that we should do the same with me and this one. So the middle name will definitely be Lily, but we can't decide on a first name."

"Can we join this conversation?" a voice said from behind. Phoebe and Piper appeared.

"Yeah, Lily was saying about a first name for the baby." Paige said.

"I like the name Alyssa." Phoebe said.

"I think Elizabeth is quite nice." Piper said.

"See, I prefer something like Krystyna." Paige said, thoughtfully.

"Christina? Like Aguilera?" Ginny asked. Hermione had introduced her to some muggle music and she like some of it.

"Yeah, but not spelt the same way. K R Y S T Y N A. It's more original." Paige said.

"Where did you get that from?" Piper asked.

"One of my friends from middle school had that name. It's always stuck with me though."

"If we're going for original names, I'd pick India." Phoebe said. Paige thought about it.

"Sounds nice. India Black." Phoebe went a very bright red while the other four snickered.

"I'm not dating him you know." Phoebe muttered.

"We know how close you two have got lately. It's only a matter of time." Piper said.

"Back to the names, I like Alyssa and Elizabeth. James and I are still talking about these things though."

"Well, I for one can't wait for the birth. Paige and I are already trained to be midwives." Phoebe told Lily.

"And I would want to give birth at home, why?" Lily said, making Piper laugh.

"Exactly what I said." She said.

"Look, your baby is practically all Whitelighter, it's going to be hard to explain an orb covered baby in any hospital, magical or muggle." Paige said.

"True." Lily said. "Maybe I'll reconsider that."
