24. A growing family and brothers till the end

A HALF YEAR LATER

It was time for another celebration. Chris' second birthday has arrived. Piper and Leo sighed heavily as they remembered what had happened during this time. Their sons had played many tricks on them as Wyatt and Christopher practised their powers. Mostly orbing and telekinesis. So the father had started to work as a handyman again, because his sons had destroyed some furniture during their practise. The mother on the other hand was not enthustiastic about it at all, but let it go – for now.

This year Wyatt had made a special gift for his little brother – with the help of his father, of course. Through their orbing play both boys had discovered a beautiful place with an amazing view over the city. The Golden Gate Bridge. The younger boy had immediately liked this place, so Wyatt and Chris decided it was their secret spot. Even though they'd been here before, but they never really enjoyed it here and noticed its beauty. Now the older boy wanted to replicate it for his baby brother. He grinned proudly while his daddy kissed him and smiled as well.

Like last year the party started with the gifts. Chris was delighted. From his parents he got clothes and some papers for training his spell abilities. From his aunties and uncles more clothes – the little boy growled a bit – and more magical stuff for training. Green eyes lightened up as his older brother gave him his gift. Their spot en miniature. The brunette swung his arms around the blond's neck so tightly, that both fell on the floor laughing.

"Thank you,Wy. That's the best gift today," Chris said still laughing. As he stood up he also hugged his parents, aunties and uncies to thank them as well.

"So hungry?" Piper asked her boys.

The answer all got were orbs floating over to their highchairs grinning like chesire cats.

The family sighed helplessly but enjoyed this day. In the evening the adults and kids played together some board games like "Ludo", "Queen" and many more.

Some time later the boys fell asleep on either Leo's or Piper's lap. Both smiled and kissed each boy on their heads and each other. Phoebe, Coop, Paige and Henry took the hint to say quietly their farewells and go home. Before going the women and men embraced each other briefly and then tiptoeing out of the Manor.

The parents took each a boy in their arms and brought the kids to bed. Kissing them once again Piper and Leo held hands and walked slowly to their bedroom. With a smile and tucked safely in each other's arms the couple slept carefree through the night.

A FEW MONTHS LATER

Piper was yet again in her bathroom. The sickness she had reminded her strong of that what had happened twice already. Some days ago the wife had gotten very intimate with Leo, so therefore the woman had brought a pregnancy test. Now she was waiting for the result. As it turned positive the eldest Charmed One sighed. Breaking the news to the family was another hard point. How would her three men react?

In the evening the family came together. Leo from Magic School where he worked as the headmaster, the boys came back from playing in the garden after they had been both in a normal as well as magical preschool. As Wyatt and Chris entered they laughed wholeheartedly and looked like an ogre. They stank as well like them.

The parents had to cover their noses from the smell. "What were you doing boys?" Leo asked through his nostrils.

"Just playing," Wyatt answered.

"But we were so, so ..." Chris continued tapping on his chin while thinking, "you see we had fun and fell in a mud." The older boy nodded in agreement.

"That explains a lot," Piper stated. "Now you two clean up and come back for dinner. I got some news for you."

"Yes mom," came the prompt reply from both and they ran upstairs to the bathroom. At first Wyatt cleaned himself and then helped his little brother. They were so close and nobody was able to break their brotherly bond. Quickly they changed clothes and walked slowly back to their parents.

Downstairs Piper and Leo talked about the social and magical lives. Magic was really involved in the mother's life, not only caused by her sons' practise in the house and many more.

"So what about the school?" Piper asked. "And the boys?"

"Everything's fine," Leo sighed. "I have never thought leading a school would be so hard." His wife laughed a bit. "The boys are cool. They're learning fast. Especially Chris. He's really smart. Smarter than Wyatt, but just a bit."

"And their powers?"

"Growing fast. I wanted to know how many they'll get and how big they'll be. So I asked the Elders."

"What did they say?"

"The normal stuff. Just like always, you know. They're really reserved."

Piper snorted. "The boys will be back any minute. Let's drop that issue!"

"Okay," Leo replied and kissed his wife passionately.

The sons of them stepped in, looked briefly at each other and commented loudly, "EWW!" Wyatt continued covering his brother's eyes. "There are minors in the room."

The parents broke their kiss immediately – embarrassed.

"So mom, what's the news?" Chris asked with big green eyes.

The mother looked at each men in her life. "I'm pregnant," she said shyly.

"Wow," came the reply from all. Leo kissed her again. This time with no comment from Wyatt or Chris. Instead they laid their ears on her stomach for listening.

"What is it? Girl or Boy?" Wyatt asked.

"I don't know yet. I'll tell you tomorrow. After I've been at the doctor. Okay?" Piper replied and her sons nodded.

One day later the mother of soon three children was pleased. At least she'll get the daughter she had foreseen years ago. Leo would be proud and the boys would be bicker over who would be the better older brother. Piper smiled. As she entered her home Wyatt and Chris ran to her eagerly.

"So what is it?" Wyatt asked.

Chris repeated, "What is it?"

Piper sighed and looked at her husband for support. Instead he only smiled as well. She sighed helplessly. "It's a girl. You'll get a sister!"

"Cool!" came the boys' reply and immediately they started to fight over who would be the better older brother.

Leo kissed his wife while their kids played together on the floor. Nine months later, shortly after Chris had turned three, the family was gathered around Piper who had just given birth to their third child. A daughter. Wyatt and Chris looked eagerly and somehow very interested in her.

"Mom, what's the name?" Wyatt asked.

Piper smiled and kissed her boys on their heads. "Melinda. Melinda Prudence Halliwell."

The men smiled happily. Piper was finally pleased that her family was complete. Two boys and a daughter. She wanted to see the reaction of her sisters and brothers-in-law. Phoebe and Paige would spoil the baby as well as Coop and Henry. Now was the time for peace.

20 YEARS LATER

Christopher sat alone on the Golden Gate Bridge. Just thinking. About the difference between his two lived timelines.

His older brother Wyatt was his best friend. He worked as a doctor in both the normal and magical world. The young man was respected by all, even the Elders who had once thought two Twice-Blessed children were not good enough for the world. But they proved them wrong. He snorted a bit as he remembered Wyatt's new girlfriend and his excitement. The blond man acted like a child again. But the family accepted her.

He himself had graduated faster than anyone expected. The normal school was proud of him – like his parents. In the Magic School Chris worked as a teacher, after he graduated as well fast. Slowly he followed his father as the headmaster of Magic School. But he still had years. Both he and his brother worked as whitelighters, taught by their Aunt Paige. The most important fact for him was certainly that his mother was still alive and his father had always been there for him.

Their baby sister Melinda was now at university studying economy. Later she will take over P3, so that their mom could open her restaurant where Chris could also work. He was as good as his mom in the kitchen. The family loved his cooking.

His thoughts now drifted to Phoebe and Coop. The middle sister was blessed with three girls. They were all teenagers. Hysterical teenagers. And they loved to annoy their elder cousins – with pleasure, actually. The eldest was also at university while her younger sisters were still in high-school. All three were dating boys and gave their parents many headaches and worry. Sometimes his uncle and aunt were helpless against their three girls. The brunette sighed.

Wandering with his thoughts to his youngest aunt Paige and his uncle Henry. Paige had taught him and his brother how to work as whitelighters. Both got children as well. Twin girls, another great exception in the Halliwell family, and a boy. These three kids were still in high-school. Henry Jr. adored his elder cousin and both were really close in their relationship. The three youngest looked up tp the six elder cousins.

Life was the way he had always dreamed of.

"There you are," a voice the brunette recognized all too well said. "I was looking for you."

"No need to worry, Wy," Chris replied. "I'm fine."

"You're my little brother. Will always be," Wyatt responded truthfully. "Of course I'm worried about you."

"I know," came his whispered answer.

Wyatt took his little brother in his lap. "So tell me what were you thinking about?"

"How the timelines had changed, you know."

His older brother nodded. Both brothers were silent for a moment. Suddenly the younger man burst into a laughter. "What's so funny now?" Wyatt snorted shaking his head.

"I was thinking about our powers," Chris replied. "You with the heavy department and me with the sensing one. You are the army and I am ... What am I,Wy?"

Blue eyes looked into the green ones of his younger brother. "You are my companion and best friend. When I'm lost to talk to a charge or someone else you'll help me out. After all you're half Elder, so you certainly have more tact than me. In this case you are like dad."

"Thanks Wy." Chris spoke looking into his brother's face. "But you are more like him. You know figure, height and features. Here I follow mom."

"But taller," Wyatt contradicted. His brother laughed and the older man soon followed. Chris sat up and beside Wyatt. Both looked over the bridge.

"You know I love you, Chris." Wyatt said all of a sudden. "You mean the world to me. Beside our baby sister, of course."

Chris looked at him. "I love you, too, Wyatt. You really are my best friend. Our baby sister has always a place in our hearts. Like Mom and Dad. The cousins, aunts and uncles."

"I know. Okay, let's face our destiny."

Chris and Wyatt orbed off to fight their latest demon and find new charges. They were after all the almighty Twice-Blessed Halliwell brothers.

There were only a few demons who were a real challenge for the men. In reality they loved challenges, because that would be using all their inherited powers. But sometimes the brothers loved to irritate the demons as they used their aunt Paige's favorite glamour effect to alter themselves. But their mother hated it. Speaking of her they should be back at home – by now.

Later that day Wyatt and Chris entered the Manor and saw their mother and father already waiting for them. Impatiently as always. So they both put on their most innocent faces. But in their hurry the door stayed opened.

"Is something wrong?" Chris asked sheepishly. Wyatt only nodded as well.

"No, you are late," Piper stated. Leo stood close behind. With their daughter away the boys were the only regulary visits at the Manor.

"Never happen again, mom." Wyatt promised. Chris snorted a bit.

"That's a good one, but I don't believe it."

"OK, time for dinner," Leo spoke. "All at the table."

Wyatt and Chris obeyed immediately, not wanting to upset their mother more. Piper still shook helplessly her head and seated herself beside her baby boy.

"Boys – door!" Leo demanded at least.

Grinning both they held out their hands and telekinatically closed the front door of the Manor.
