Chapter 11
Piper watched her baby sister sleep for hours until she herself fell asleep. She could have only been asleep for five minutes or so until she her Paige sobbing quietly thrashing around in her sleep.
"Paige, Paige!" Piper said nudging her awake. Paige jolted up, glancing around confused.
"Piper?" Paige mumbled rubbing her eyes, "What time is it?"
"It's only eleven, you were thrashing around in your sleep, you okay?" She asked her little sister.
"It was nothing," Paige lied.
"Uh huh sure, spill it little sister," Piper said.
"Really, Piper it was nothing," Paige lied again. The dream was still vivid in her mind.
Paige and two of her older sisters in a caged in garden blooming with flowers. Paige was in a light blue gown and was sitting in a wheelchair.
"Paige, we just want to help you," Prue said.
"Help me! You stuck me in this place, because you thought I was crazy, I'm not ask Pheebs, she'll back me up," Paige pleaded.
"Paige, Pheebs is in New York, she left after Grams passed, don't you remember?" Prue asked worry in her voice.
"'Course I remember, she left us when were supposed to get our powers," Paige said matter a factly.
"Paige, sweetie we don't have powers," Piper said kneeling in front of Paige's wheelchair.
"You don't understand, neither of you do, only Phoebe does, we are witches, Mom was and so was Grams, she bound our powers, Why I don't know," Paige said shaking her head sobbing, "I don't know." Piper held her hands as Prue placed her hands on Paige's shoulders as they moved up and down.
"Where's Phoebe? She's supposed to be here, she said over the phone last week that she'd be here," Paige asked.
"Phoebe got held up is all," Piper said, wiping the tears from Paige's face.
"With what? Her boyfriend?" Paige said bitterly. Prue rubbed her hands on Paige's head.
"Doctor," Prue called out, soon after a tall blonde haired woman came out taking Paige's wheelchair.
"We'll see you soon, sweetie 'kay?" Piper said, kissing Paige on the cheek.
"See you soon," Prue said, kneeling down giving her baby sister a hug. Paige didn't say anything, nor did she look at either of her sisters. Tears fell down her cheeks as she was rolled into her room, and only then did she start to sob.
"Paige?" Piper asked, she knew her sister was reliving her dream as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I'm not crazy, Piper I'm not," Paige said.
"Why would you think that?" Piper asked.
"I-I can't tell you," Paige whispered.
"Mhm and what is it you can't tell me?"
"Something that Grams won't tell us," Paige said.
"Piper you wouldn't leave would you? Me, that's is," Paige asked.
"Of course not," Piper said her heart breaking at her sister's sorrow.
"Promise?" Paige asked.
"Promise," Piper said, "You should get back to sleep."
"Do I have to?" Paige whined with a hint of a smile.
"You want to leave in the morning don't you?" Piper asked.
"Well yeah, but it isn't moring yet," Paige said.
"Then you wouldn't mind if I did this?" Piper said reaching over and tickiling Paige. Paige nearly shrieked with laughter, then she did the same to Piper. Both sisters giggled for what seemed like hours, they eventually became exsauhted and fell asleep.
"Hey Roger," Prue said sitting down at the chair across from her fiance, "Thanks for coming on short notice, things have been so crazy at home, I don't even know where to start."
"That's okay," Roger said giving Prue a kiss, "I actually have something to tell you too."
"Good news I hope," Prue said. The couple ordered their food as Prue told Roger all that had happened since Friday night.
"Wow sounds like you've had a busy weekend," he said.
"Yeah, and what about you what did you have to tell me?" she asked.
"It's about your little sister," he said slowly.
"Which one? I have three," Prue said.
"Phoebe," he said.
"What'd she do?" Prue asked sighing, "She egg your house? Car? Prank calls to the museum?"
"Um no, no silly pranks like that," he said.
"Then what?" Prue asked.
"Your sister came onto to me," he said gingerly.
"She WHAT?" Prue screeched, turning heads in the chinese restuaraunt.
"Look, I took care of it, told her no, but I thought you'd want to know," he said.
"I got to go, I'll see you Monday," Prue said storming out of the restuaraunt.
"Phoebe! Dinner!" Grams called upstairs from the dining room. Phoebe came downstairs and sat across from Grams.
"Good evening," Grams said.
"What's so good about it? Paige is in the hospital, Prue is going to explode from stress and, Piper well, she's still Piper," Phoebe said.
"Phoebe Halliwell, don't talk about your sisters like that!"
"Like what? I was telling the truth!" Phoebe nearly yelled, "Grams you aren't supposed to leave us. But you are, aren't you?"
"Phoebe, I don't want to leave," Grams said her tone softening.
"Then why are you?" Phoebe asked.
"It's not like I'm leaving by choice," Grams said. Phoebe started crying, tears spilling down her cheeks. Grams got up from the table and went around and hugged her grandaughter. At the momnet Prue stormed in but stopped when she saw Grams hugging Phoebe. Since when did Phoebe allow Grams to hug her? Her anger had dissolved at the moment as she quietly went upstairs to her room.
