Disclaimer: I own nothing expect the ideas and the babies. Everything else belongs to Aaron Spelling and co. Wonder how his mind works to come up with so many great shows.
Anyways I´m just borrowing them for the fun of it.
Note: In this chapter I´m borrowing some lines from "The wedding planner" too.
Note2: Thanks to the few of you who reviewed. I wish others would follow your lead. Besides I´m glad you thought I handled the Paige thing well.
Note3 (which is a very important one): I really don't wanna be one of those writers who say they wont post another chapter before they get so and so many reviews but it would be nice to know what people thinks.
Even more now that I´m redoing the whole thing, trying to make it easier for people to read and all.
So as always. Read and review.
The Power of Four- A new beginning
"I do too", chapter fifteen
"I´m fat! And I´m marrying the wrong guy!"
"Look at me. You are exquisite. You´re timeless."
"Phoebe? What are you doing?" Prue poked her head into her sisters room grinning as she saw Phoebe sitting in her bathrobe on her bed watching ´The wedding Planner´. "I´m just watching this movie in hopes of becoming less nervous." Phoebe turned off her TV and touched her hair which was full of curls. "Jennifer Lopez is a very good wedding planner in there so I´m hoping she will work on me too."
Prue laughed and sat down beside Phoebe and gave her a big hug. "Sweetie, you don't need Jennifer Lopez. You have me," she smiled. "Are you sure?" Her big sister nodded and said: "Come on the future Mrs. Halliwell-Turner! Paige has prepared you a nice bubble bath and Piper is finishing your wail and Kyle and Bane are finishing placing the chairs."
"Thank you so much," Phoebe whispered. Then she shot up. "Oh my God. Where is Cole? And dad?"
"He is downstairs together with Cole and Leo in the basement changing getting ready to give away his daughter," a gentle voice said. "Mommy," Phoebe slowly turned and threw herself around her mothers neck. "My darling Phoebe. I´m so happy to be here with you at this very important day," Patricia Halliwell said and gave her daughter a hug. Releasing Phoebe Patty turned to Prue who raced into the waiting arms of her mother.
"Mom! It´s go good to see you. I missed you so much," Prue cried and Patty dried a tears from her own eye and smiled. "No tears on this happy day," Patty said and released Prue.
"We have to get you ready and into bubble bath right away. We don't want to be late on your wedding day," she continued.
"Okay, so I´m just about ready with the…. Mom?" Pipers voice stopped and so did she when she saw Patty standing there. "Piper," Patty said. "Oh my God. Mom" Patty smiled and hugged her daughter tightly. "Oh Piper. I´m so happy to see you," she muttered into Pipers hair.
Phoebe dried a tear of and smiled as Paige entered the room. "Where are you, Pheebs? The water is getting," then she spotted her mother. "Cold," she finished. "Paigey my darling," Patty said and embraced her youngest daughter. "You look stunning." Paige grinned and patted her 8 months pregnant womb.
"Pregnancy does that for ya," she giggled. "Ouch," she exclaimed. "Hey stop that in there. Mommy had things to do. You don't wanna ruin auntie Phoebes wedding now do ya?" she scolded. Phoebe nodded. "Listen to your mother, babies," she said rubbing Paiges belly.
"Now," Patty said. "Let´s get you into the warm bath. When you come out we will be ready for you." Phoebe smiled and raced out into the bath room followed by Paige who wrinkled at the others and waddled after her sister.
Prue sighted and took Pipers hand. "Shall we go get the children ready?" she asked and Piper nodded. "Maybe the grandmother wants to help?" Piper asked over her shoulder and giggled as she heard her mother squeal in delight.
"Hey there, baby girl," Prue cooed picking up Pandora. "How about getting pretty for your auntie Phoebe and uncle Cole, huh?" Pandora smiled a toothy smile and clapped. Prue giggled. Piper had picked up Phanessa getting a happy ´mama´ in return.
Patty bent down, smiling at her youngest grandchild. "Hey Phonix," she whispered. "I´m your grandmother." Phonix yawned and blinked her eyes as to say hello. Patty picked her up gently rocking her as they three women went upstairs.
Phoebe sat in the bathtub enjoying her bubble bath while Paige was painting her nails. The water was getting cold and as if Paige had read her mind she looked at her watch. "It´s time to get up now, miss. Phoebe" she said. "You have a wedding to get ready too besides," she added with a goofy grin. "I kinda need help to get up here." Phoebe laughed and stood up. Grabbing a towel she dried herself off as Paige blew on her nails to dry them up.
Phoebe, finally dry, grabbed Paiges hand and pulled her up. Paige was breathing heavily. "Man, I can´t wait until I give birth," she said caressing her belly. "This babies are getting heavy." Phoebe nodded. "I can´t imagine how it must feel for you. I thought Phonix was heavy but seeing you," she gestured at Paiges very large belly." I kinda think mine was nothing."
The two of them left the bath room and went to Phoebes room. "Hey isn't it unusually for a first time mother to keep the twins inside her belly so long?" Phoebe asked. "I mean, you´re in the 8 month." Paige nodded. "I´m only in the beginning of the 8 months but if my labor doesn't starts naturally in the next few weeks the doctors will perform the C-section."
"So you´re having the C-section?" Phoebe opened the door. "Yeah," Paige said. "The doctors recommended it." Phoebe nodded. "You know, I kinda understand them," she stated. "I mean pushing out one kid is really tough but pushing out two" She wiped her face pretending to be sweating. Paige giggled.
"Hey there," Phoebe cooed as she kissed her daughter. "You look so cute." Phonix blinked at her mother and Phoebe smiled at her mother. Patty smiled. "You got a lovely daughter," she said and Phoebe nodded. "Well, I have some very good DNA," she replied. "Thanks for getting Phonix dressed." Patty smiled. "Not a problem," she said. "I really wanted to do it."
´Man mom did a good job´, Phoebe thought as she checked out her daughter. Patty had chosen a white dress with white shoes matching. Phonix had a pink ribbon in her baby hair and a pink belt around her belly.
"Hey, we are here too," Piper protested and Phoebe giggled. "You look gorgeous," she smiled. Piper had a light green dress on. It had a V-shaped neckline and cut just below the knees. She had added a belt in gold with a leaf for buckle and her long hair hung loosly around her face, slightly curled. She had a brown shimmer eye shadow on and a clear gloss. In her ears hung golden rings.
"And your daughter is so sweet in that dress," Phoebe made a funny face at Phanessa who giggled. She was wearing a white dress too with a green belt and ribbon in her hair. "We figured they should match too," Piper said as she noticed Phoebes stare.
"What about me and my girl," Prue exclaimed and Phoebe giggled at her oldest sister. "You are stunning, my darling sister," she stated while admiring her sisters raven colored hair which was placed in a bun on her head with a few pieces of hair hanging around her face. Around her icy blue eyes were a light purple glimmer shadow and she had a pink lipstick on. Her dress was long and hugged her curves perfectly. It was a deep red color with a golden belt which hung loosely around her waist.
Paige smiled at Pandora. "You are stunning like your mother," she told the little girl who giggled and clapped her hands together. Pandora was dressed in the same white dress as the other two girls but with a red ribbon and red belt on. "Matching," Paige stated and Piper stuck out her tongue.
"Now," Patty scolded. "We need to get Phoebe ready." The women nodded and Prue began taking out the curls in her hair while Piper found makeup. Paige smiled. "I´ll go change too," she said before orbing out.
After getting out all the curls Prue gently brushed Phoebes hair and began arranging them so they would hang loosely around her face. With a few hair needles she fasted some of the hair in the front so it wouldn't get in her sisters eyes while dancing or something like that. Piper began adding foundation and blush on Phoebes cheeks before adding a shimmery silver shadow on her lids. Then she found a golden reddish gloss which she added to Phoebes lips.
Patty had pulled out the dress from Phoebes closet and now they three off them helped Phoebe into it. It was a long off white gown which was small at the waist before going out. Not too much though because Phoebe had stated she didn't want to look like a big fluffy cake at her own wedding. It was strapless which Paige had decided. She had claimed it looked the best on Phoebe and her breast which had all four of them rolling around on the floor laughing.
"Wow," Paige breathed as she orbed back into the room all changed. "Wow yourself," Phoebe said and she was right. Paige had a dusty blue/grey dress on which was very loose. The stomach still showed but it was only because she was carrying twins, Paige had claimed. In her hair Paige had placed a blue flower with a silver needle. Her eyes were shinning clearly brown as she had added a very dusty almost brown, purple eye shadow and she had found her favorite red lipstick.
"Time for presents," Prue exclaimed after giving her baby sister a smile. "Presents?" Phoebe were a little confused. "But what about Cole? He can´t see me like this." She began to panic. "Oh, sweetie," Prue cooed after placing a calming hand On Phoebes arm. "It´s not a present for him like that," she explained. She waved her hand and a blue box came flying.
Prue opened it up and she pulled out a pair of silver earrings, shaped like a drop of water and a silver necklace with a pendant shaped like a water drop too. She gave Phoebe the earrings and placed the necklace around her neck. "This is your something new," she told her.
Piper came into view carrying the veil and on it were a tiara in silver. "This is your something old," she told her while placing the veil and tiara on Phoebes head. "It belonged to our great grandmother."
Paige took out two small boxes. From one of them she pulled out a ring. The fingered with it a little before giving it to Phoebe. "This was My mother´s wedding ring," she told her quietly. "This is your something borrowed." Phoebe had tears in her eyes and hugged her sister close. Paige dried her own eyes before, smiling, she opened the other box. Out she pulled a blue ribbon to go around her thigh. "Oh my God," Phoebe gasped. "Please tell me that isn't what I think it is." She squealed as Paige nodded and laughed as she kneeled to place it on her thigh.
Phoebe giggled and smiled at her family. "I´m so happy," she sobbed and Prue hurried to her with a napkin. "Hey," she smiled. "Don't cry. Or else I will have to do the makeup again," she sniffed in and Phoebe smiled though her tears. "Then who will fix yours?" she teased and Prue slapped her. "Hey," Phoebe protested. "No slapping of the bride." Piper giggled and then there was a knock on the door.
Down in the basement the groom, the best men and the father of the bride were getting ready. Penny had been over them like a hawk inspecting their hair, clothes and shoes. As she nodded in accept and left to get the last things in place Leo, who was the first best man, the man with the rings he had joked, turned to face Cole. "So," he asked, playful. "Are you ready to become a husband?"
Cole nodded and smiled. "I´m kinda nervous," he confessed. Bane who was fixing his tie turned. "Why?"
"Well," Cole looked down. "It´s just. Phoebe wants this to be perfect. She has been dreaming of this day forever and now its here and I don't want her to be disappointed. I want her to be happy and remember this day with joy. And I´m scared," Cole said. "I scared that I will ruin it. I´ll forget the vows or fall when we dance or something like that."
"If you do it wont be the worst thing to happen," a voice said and Victor stepped in behind Cole and patted him. "I must say I have been a little worried about you getting married to my daughter," he said. "I wasn't sure you were good enough for her but now I´m sure. Anyone who worries that much about his wedding, not him but for his wife, is a good man and I can accept that." Victor stopped and gave Cole a sad smile. "But I will ask this of you," he continued. "You take good care of my little girl and if you ever hurt her, I´ll hunt you down and beat you to death with a trout," he said, face serious.
"O-okay," Cole stuttered, half scared and half amused. Then Victor bursted out laughing. "You should see your face." He grinned. Cole shook his head.
"Victor," Pennys voice rang and Victor checked the clock. "I better go find your bride," he said before patting Cole comforting on the shoulder and leaving.
Cole shook his head. "Wow," he said with a smile. "Now I´m not so sure about this married thing anymore," he joked. "How about you," Kyle asked Bane while fixing his shoes. "Will you ask Prue?" Bane smiled secretly. "Maybe" he stated before turning the conversation on something else.
"Hello?" a deep voice said and Victor Bennett stepped in. "Wow," he said as he spotted Phoebe and Phoebe couldn't help but grin and twirl around so her dress flew around her. "You look gorgeous, baby girl," he said offering her his arm. "It´s about that time." Phoebe smiled and took his arm. Patty smiled and winked at Victor before she and the remaining three girls left the room to get in position.
Victor turned his head slightly and smiled. "Are you ready?" "Yes daddy. I´m ready," Phoebe grinned. Victor couldn't help but feel a little sad and as if she read his mind Phoebe said: "Why are you sad dad?" He smiled a sad smile but waved his hands. "I´m just a little upset," he confessed and Phoebe turned to him and gave him a concerned look. "Don't worry," he comforted her. "It´s just that," he paused feeling a little stupid. "I´m loosing my baby girl today."
Phoebe smiled and hugged her father. "No you don't, dad. I´ll always be your baby girl. Now I´m just gonna be someone's wife too. But I´ll always be yours," she told him before giving him a gentle smile and taking his arm again. "Come on now," she stated as she music started. "I don't wanna be late for my own wedding." Victor sniffed back his tears and lead Phoebe down the hallway and down the stairs.
"What´s taking so long," Piper was getting a little worried as the music started but her big sisters face lit up in a big smile and shook her head. "There they are," she whispered and pointed.
Phoebe and Victor came around the corner and Prue heard Cole gasp as he saw his future wife. The little nagging voice in her head telling her that Cole was no good for her sister was bugging her but it went silent as she saw how Phoebes face lit up and her eyes get misty as she saw him there in his black tux.
The ceremony was short but beautiful and Prue wasn't the only one who felt the nagging voice inside her mind disappear as she saw Phoebe and Cole exchange their vows. Paige smiled through her own tears as Penny declared them husband and wife and everybody clapped. Even Pandora who was seated at Pattys together with Phanessa. Phonix was being held by Kyle and was watching carefully as her mother and father kissed.
A kick in her belly told her the babies were also hearing the vows and Paige smiled, stroking her stomach gently. "Soon," she muttered. "Soon you´ll be with me and I cant wait to hold you. Just don't come out right now," she quickly added.
The party was on after a lot of eating. Piper had provided some very nice food. Penny and Patty had helped each other with putting down the kids to sleep and now the adults were dancing or talking.
Prue had left the living room for a while standing outside watching the stars. She sighted as she realized that she was the only one who wasn't married. Even though she was the oldest.
Then she felt arms encircle her waist and she felt her lips begin to smile. "A penny for your thoughts," a deep voice said and Prue lifted her head and kissed Bane gently on the mouth. "Nothing special," she said before turning her eyes back to the stars. "It´s beautiful out here," she said and she felt Bane nod.
"You know," his voice said in her ear speaking softly. "We are the only ones in this house not married yet." Prue gazed up at him and nodded. "And there is something I want to ask you."
He pushed Prue away and fell on his knees. "I have wanted to ask you this for quite sometime but it didn't seem right." Bane smiled and Prue smiled back. "Now it does," he stated. "Will you marry me?" he asked and Prue choked out a ´yes´ before meeting his lips in a sweet kiss.
Smiling he stood up and hugged her close. "Wanna tell them now?" he asked but Prue shook her head. "Tonight's is Phoebes night. Tomorrow will be ours," she kissed him and they lifted their heads and watched the stars as a shooting star fell from the sky.
Phoebe threw herself on the bed and sighted. Cole smiled and laid down beside her. "I´m so tired," she whispered. Cole nuzzled her neck. "Wanna sleep?" he mumbled into her hair. "Mm," Phoebe cooed. "But shouldn't we, know you?" she asked him making him laugh. "Honey," he said still smiling. "That's what we have the rest of our lives to do."
Phoebe giggled and sat up. "Okay then," she said. "Let´s sleep." She stood up and took of her wedding dress and other clothes. Suddenly Cole grabbed her hand stopping her motions. "What are you doing?" Phoebe protested as Cole stared at her thigh.
Cole grinned and gestured at her thigh and Phoebe began laughing too as she noticed the blue ribbon on her their. "Who´s that from," Cole gasped though his laughter and Phoebe giggled. "Paige of course," she said suddenly feeling quite awake. Cole smiled slyly as he began unbuttoning his shirt. "Remind me to thank her," he hissed as he began kissed her neck. After that only laughter sounded.
"Good morning, Mrs. Turner. Mr. Turner," Piper giggled as Phoebe and Cole shimmered in kissing. "And please stop that," Prue added. "At least in as long as my baby is here." She stated pointing at all three kids. Phonix squealed as she spotted her parents as she hadn't seen them al night. She had slept with Piper and Leo so the two newly weds could have a night for them selves.
Paige orbed in, yawning and waved her hellos still yawning. "I´ll keep the kissing on a minimum," Phoebe promised taking a seat with Cole. "And it´s Mrs. Halliwell-Turner," she added. "You´re keeping your last name?" Bane asked as he entered and Phoebe nodded. "That´s how we do it," she said. "Just think about what Grams would say." Piper smiled. "Yeah. That's right."
Shortly after all of the family was seated, eating Pipers delicious breakfast and Paige had just stood up when five demons shimmered in.
"We come with a present to the newly weds," one of them hissed forming an energy ball. "From the source." He added and fired aiming for Phoebe who levitated up.
Cole growled and fired an energy ball of his own hitting one in the chest, vanquishing it. "No," Phoebe cried. "Not at my first morning as a wife," she screamed charging a lightning and hitting one demon which made him explode.
The three remaining growled in rage and shimmered out. The family stood still waiting. "Are they gone?" Paige whispered. Kyle had grabbed the kids and orbed them out as soon as he noticed them.
"No, they aren't," a cold voice stated behind her and Paige whirled around to look right into a pair of red eyes. "No," Prue cried as she saw the demon have an energy ball ready. She screamed as he fired and sighted out in relief as she saw Paige disappear in orbs.
Reappearing, Paige was shaking. Then a loud roar was heard and Paige turned to see four energy balls aiming at her. She ducked down, hugging her stomach. She cried out on fear and closed her eyes to prepare for the impact but nothing happened.
Slowly she opened her eyes to see Bane lie in front of her eyes wide open but so very empty. Then she heard a blood curling scream and after that everything was in slow motion.
She saw how Prue ducked at Bane only to have Cole fly at her and hold her down to keep her from getting hit by an energy ball. She saw how Piper exploded one demon, crying out in anger.
Then Paige saw how Phoebe killed one and Leo hurled a lightning at the last demon who disappeared in a mighty explosion.
Then she saw how Prue pushed Cole of her and raced to Banes side. She heard her sisters desperate cries and saw Kyle orb in with the kids. She saw Pandoras face contort in pain and the girl began wailing. She saw how Prue hammered her hands into Banes chest, screaming at him for leaving her.
She slowly crept closer to her big sister and pulled her into a hug where she began whispering how sorry she was and how it was all her fault.
Prue looked at her with dead eyes and whispered it wasn't her fault. "Never think that, Paigey," her oldest sister whispered before grabbing her daughter from a teary eyed Leo and orb out.
Then she fell to the floor and witnessed, with tears falling from her eyes as a crying Cole closed the eyes of Bane Jessup for the last time.
So, thoughts? Feeling a need to yell or praise? Give it to me.
