Three years on from leaving the Halliwell Phoebe, had met Coop, the man of her dreams, and was having his child. Phoebe's screams were soon masked by the cry of her newborn daughter. Looking lovingly into her babies eyes she felt as though she recognised someone in them. Phoebe panicked as her mind went into rewind and she found herself seeing a past she suddenly recognised. 'Baby?' Coop questioned obviously worried about his wife, being a cupid he was a master at reading emotion and he could tell something had happened. Phoebe couldn't articulate what she was experiencing; she had not been fighting demons with Leo and Piper for those three years after Prue's death. She had another sister, a sister so like her, Paige. Phoebe wept as she realised what had been missing, overwhelmed as she felt whole, staring at her daughter, 'I need my little sister' she whispered weakly to Coop who was now really worried, 'You don't have a little sister honey, you're the baby, that's why you left home in the first place remember?' His last point was made with no malice, just a hope that he would jog his wife's memory. 'I need Paige' she whispered more forcefully.
Paige felt a shock in her stomach, like a punch and blue lights began to fill her vision. Finding herself in a maternity ward, she was confused and irritated. Did the elders think she had nothing better to do than do their bidding? Suddenly though everything was clear, lying exhausted in the hospital bed was her big sister, tears in her eyes and a baby in her arms. Paige couldn't move, for fear that this wasn't real but Phoebe's sob 'I remembered' confirmed her greatest hopes. Coop stood dumbfounded, magical as he may be the love of his life never failed to amaze him.
Phoebe and Paige became inseparable, to Coop and Henry's relief and annoyance, with a baby to care for and a past to make sense of the girls couldn't bear to leave one another for more than a second. Paige was happier than she had been in years, she was so proud of Phoebe for what she'd achieved, she wasn't just a charmed one anymore, she was 'Ask Phoebe' one of the most respected advice colomnist's in New York, and a proper career woman. Seeing Phoebe in her new role shocked Paige as she realised how like Piper, Phoebe had become, driven and strong-minded, she'd even learned how to cook, Paige was hit with a new wave of heartbreak as she missed her big sister, but Phoebe was happy now, she'd never go back Paige thought.
Walking into Payton's nursery Paige was shocked to hear her niece crying hysterically. Phoebe huddled into her armchair in the corner had tears pouring silently down her face. 'Piper would be able to stop her crying…..she knows how to be a mother, I need her. How can I keep my baby from them, Prue basically raised me and I let her down, now it's too late, they'll hate me.' The corners of Paige's mouth gently lifted into a smile as she mocked herself for thinking Phoebe could cope any better than her without their big sisters, 'They're our sister's honey, they couldn't hate you.' Paige sighed, 'When I first met you guys you remember Piper's reaction? I thought she blamed me for everything, that she'd never accept me but I knew her, I didn't grow up with her or know anything about her at the time, but I understood her, when she became a fury I knew what she was thinking even if she didn't want me to, she's your sister, she'll understand' Phoebe pulled Paige towards her and held her arm firmly around her little sister as she perched on the chair of the arm. 'I love you' she whispered and handed Paige Payton, the baby's cries subsided, Phoebe instantly realised that her tiny beautiful baby girl knew something was missing, just as she had before she discovered Paige, she couldn't do that to her little girl.
