San Francisco

Phoebe dragged out her two large suitcases from the basement. She kept everything she didn't want destroyed down there. Getting to the bottom of the stairs she encountered a problem, she couldn't get them up the stairs.

"Piper!" Phoebe yelled hoping her sister could hear her.

Piper's body loomed in the doorway, blocking Phoebe's only source of light. "I'm kinda busy making a salad. What do you want?"

Phoebe sighed. "I need some help with these suitcases."

"Why don't we have lunch first, then we'll lift those heavy things." Piper suggested.

"Deal."

Phoebe ran up the stairs taking two at a time. "Whats for lunch sis?" She said linking arms with her older sister.

"Salad and a BLT."

"Yum! Sounds good!"

Phoebe sat at the kitchen table watching Piper cut tomatoes to put into the salad. Phoebe couldn't believe how fast Piper diced them up! That would take me forever to do! Phoebe thought to herself.

Everyone knew that Piper was the chef in the family, just like everyone knew that Paige was the artist in the family. Phoebe could remember many times when Piper would be out of town and her and Paige would have to fend for themselves, even when Prue was alive and Piper was the middle child, Piper would cook for the three of them. Phoebe smiled at remembering the time Piper went to Hawaii. Prue, of course, was working so Phoebe tried her hand at cooking. Big mistake. She burnt the roast, made the mashed potatoes into a big lump on a stick, and all in the progress of making salad, cut her finger. Snapping out of her day dreaming, she noticed Piper picking up the phone instead of dicing the tomatoes."Who is it?"

Piper put her index finger up to her lips in an attempt to keep Phoebe quiet, but instead she walked over to Piper and put her right ear to Piper's left so she could hear the conversation. "Hold on Daryl, I'm putting you on speaker."

With that said she went to the phone jack, put the phone on the jack at the same time pressing the speaker button. "Ok, shoot."

"Paige was in a car accident, she's beat up pretty good too."

Phoebe looked at her sister and then back to the phone, both sharing the same worried look. "Well is she alright?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't know, sorry."

"Its ok Daryl." Piper said. "what about Wyatt and Chris? Are they alright?"

"Wyatt and Chris are at the police station with me." There was a pause. " the little guys appeared in my office, thats when I got the call about Paige."

"Thanks Daryl." Phoebe said

"Anytime."

Piper hung up the phone as Phoebe grabbed the keys. "You go to Daryl and pick up the boys. I'll head to the hospital and make sure Paige is alright." Piper stated.

"Gotcha."

Piper rushed to the hospital like a madman-well, madwoman. She couldn't believe how many stop lights there were in the city. If only I could orb, she said to herself, I am a witch after all! Just use a little spell Piper, it won't hurt - I mean its not personal gain if Paige is hurt, right?

Casting a little rhyme, the stop light changed from red to green. Well, that went swimmingly! Now to the hospital...

Phoebe made her way through the crowded police station trying to look for Daryl and her nephews. While trying to look for Daryl she felt a tiny tug on her pants leg. Looking down she found her nephew, Wyatt, grinning at her. "Hey big guy!" She said lifting Wyatt into her arms, "where's Daryl at, huh?"

Just as she spoke Daryl came running out of his office. "Nobody move! I'm missing a toddler!"

"Daryl? He's right here."

Daryl sighed as he walked over to Phoebe. "I swear, I didn't mean to lose him."

"Yeah. Hey, Chris is in my office. I have to go, see you later?"

"Possibly." Phoebe watched Daryl leave the office before she went and got Chris. "lets go find your brother, shall we?" She said to Wyatt.

At that Wyatt pouted which made Phoebe giggle. Phoebe found Chris in Daryl's office playing with a Barbie. Now that both Wyatt and Chris could walk, Phoebe held both of their hands tightly and started heading toward the door. "Lets go find Auntie Paige and mommy." At the mention of Piper's name Wyatt smiled and repeated what Phoebe had said and orbed Phoebe, Chris, and himself out of the police station.

Piper sat in silence in Paige's hospital room when a swarm of bright, white lights appeared.

Phoebe looked utterly confused at her surroundings. "Oh dear."

"Don't tell me my son orbed you three here."

"Fine, I won't tell you."

While Piper was glaring at Phoebe, Wyatt walked over to his mommy." Auntie Paige ok?"

Piper's heart melted at the concern Wyatt had for his aunt. Wyatt was trying his hardest to climb onto the bed with Paige but it seemed he just wasn't tall enough. Phoebe of course but Chris into Piper's arms and helped Wyatt out. "You have to be very, very quiet." Phoebe explained to Wyatt.

For the first time since she arrived at the hospital Phoebe looked at her sister. Paige had a deep gash on her forehead and a couple scratches on her pale cheeks. Her right leg was broken and he left arm bruised up, badly. She couldn't stand looking at her sister this way. Phoebe never did like hospitals. With Innocents she knew she could help, but with just sick, normal people she felt totally helpless. When her Grams was sent to the hospital she refused to go. But, at that time her sisters just thought she was coldhearted, but the truth be told, she hated seeing her grandmother so weak when all her life she saw her as a strong human being. Phoebe didn't want her last memories of Grams to be of her laying in a hospital bed. That just wasn't her.

Piper could see the discomfort in Phoebe's eyes. Phoebe was so happy when they learned they had another sister, she was the one that was closest to Paige. Paige looked up to Phoebe like Piper had done to Prue. Piper knew Phoebe hated hospitals but she couldn't help but wonder if that ws the only reason Phoebe was uncomfortable. "Sweetie, whats wrong?" Piper patted the seat next to her signaling Phoebe to sit and talk. "I just realized how dependent we are on Paige." There was a long pause and Piper could swear she saw a single tear fall from Phoebe's eyes. " I wonder if she'd still be alive if someone didn't pull her out of that car in time."

Piper put an arm around Phoebe's shoulders. "Stop worrying. She's going to be alright."

Phoebe put her head on Piper's shoulder. "She's my baby sister Piper, I'm supposed to worry."

"Number one, I thought I was the worrier in the family. Number two, both of you are my baby sisters too! I have one sister unconsious and one crying on my shoulder...I should be the worried one."

Now that Phoebe thought about it, Piper was right. Piper was the eldest and yet she wasn't worrying - or was she?

"Phoebe? Why are you crying?" A bewildered Paige asked, now awake holding Wyatt in her lap with her good arm.

Paige was bombarded by hugs and kisses. "Smothering me!"

"Sorry, we were just worried." Phoebe said.

"What happened? Oh my god! Are the boys ok!" Paige inspected Wyatt like she was inspecting a dog for ticks.

"Paige, he's prefectly fine!" Piper said chuckling.

There was a deafing silence in the room. Chris broke the tension by crying. "Someone needs a nap. I guess this would be the time were we leave." Piper said trying to calm Chris down. "we'll be in the lobby." Piper gave her sister a quick kiss on the cheek and a hug. "You get better now, love you." Piper then left.

"I got to be going too, I have suitcases to put away."

"Don't you mean suitcases to get out?"

"Not anymore I don't" Phoebe said.

"Why?"

"Your hurt Paige. Someone needs to take care of you."

"I don't need taking care of." Paige said rather hurt.

"Well no offense honey, but you have no say in this, and you know me once I make up my mind there's no changing it."

Paige glared at her sister. "You're lucky I can't get out of this bed."

Phoebe smiled with satisfaction. "You'll thank me later."

"Yes honey, I know I didn't call. I'm sorry. This woman got hit by another car and I had to help." Jim stood by a payphone getting nasty stares from a old woman for over twenty minutes. "honey, honey! I got to go. You can tell me about the party later. Someone is waiting to use the phone. Yes, I love you too. Bye."

After hanging up Jim had to akwardly squeeze between the old lady and the wall. He wanted to find the woman he talked to in the toy store, then later saved her life. After ten minutes of trying to get to her room he finally found it. Noticing her asleep in her hospital bed he left not wanting to disrupt her. So, he started heading back to the parking garage, and then to his hotel.
