Chapter 15:
A/N: HEY I'M BACK!!!!!!!!! YIPEE!!!!!!!! I had an amazing week, although it was really sad. I was at a church camp (yes, Presbyterian Church camp whatup!) in North Carolina. It was sad because my youth minister is leaving us after 13 years because she had "another calling" and next year is my senior year, so she won't be there with us. So yeah, Friday night, we were all crying our eyes out. It was awful, because I'd known her basically my entire life. So yeah, I'm really going to miss her. But on a happier note, I'm back in action so I get to write a lot more. I know some of you were confused about the age, so I'm trying to make it a little better, but yeah. I also would like to thank you all for reviewing. It was amazing to come home from church camp and see all those reviews! I've almost reached my goal, yippee! Okay, so, I'm going to shut up now so you can read the story. As always, don't forget to REVIEW!!!
Prue looked at her daughter for the longest time. She knew that her daughter was meant to be there, and that things happened for a reason. She believed in fate and destiny at that very moment for the first time in a long time. She knew things were going to be okay.
Prue thought back to her pregnancy. She thought about how she had been sent to live in another plane, where time worked differently. This was the reason that her daughter was so much older, because while she had been gone only nine months on Earth, it was a few years in the other plane. (A/N: I hope that cleared up the age confusion some).
Prue thought back to how she had watched her daughter grow. She had been able to spend more time with her, and play with her. She was grateful for that now; she hadn't understood when she came back and had to give Jessica away. She thought that the Elders had done that to make things harder on her, but now she realized that they were giving her time with her daughter.
Finally, Jessica was the one to break the silence. "Mom?" she asked, in a quiet, quavering voice.
Prue snapped out of her reverie, and walked toward Jessica, absorbing the details of her daughter's appearance as she walked. She saw that Jessica had her mother's hair and sharp, blue eyes, but she was a nice mixture of Cole when it came to her body structure. She also had the Halliwell face.
As Prue reached her daughter, she stopped walking. After standing still for a few seconds, she reached over and gave Jessica the biggest hug she'd ever given anyone. "I'll never leave you again. Never, never, never." She whispered into her daughter's ear.
Prue felt the tears falling from her daughter's face, getting her hands wet in their embrace. She felt the love that was in her daughter's heart and the connection of family. She felt her daughter sigh, and even without the power of telepathy, Prue knew what her daughter was thinking. "Peace at last. Thank God I'm finally home."
Jessica thought those words, and as she thought them, her mother said the two words that Jessica had wanted to hear most her entire life. "Welcome home."
