A/N: It hasn't been to long since I last updated and I knew what I wanted to write for this chapter so I hope you enjoy. Last chapter there were four reviews!
MissyCole23: Thank you, they should, but not this chapter!
StrangelyBeautiful3: Thanks! I hope you're pleased with what happens next.
Kc1690: If Prue died, or any of them died, there would definitely be a problem. Because this time there is no other Charmed One, when Prue died the powers shifted to Paige but I'm not sure yet. I want to get through season one first before Shax shows up, or maybe one of them will meet their demise by another demon….
Rose Long: Thank you, I plan too.
Chapter 44
Prue, Piper, and Phoebe joined their father sitting down at the table at the restaurant.
"How was the rest of your afternoon? Anymore attacks?"
"None," Phoebe said. She excused herself to go to the restroom.
"Good, good," he said, "I never wanted you or your sisters involved in this stuff."
"It's still not a good reason to leave," Prue said bitterly.
"You're right. After your mother…" he trailed off.
"After she what, Victor? After she had Paige or after she died? You just decided to leave? Last time I checked you left well after any of that," Prue said.
"Prue, give dad a chance," Piper said, "He's sorry for his past mistakes."
"Why should I give him a chance? The last thing I remember was him walking out of our lives! You know what we had this conversation earlier this week, which stopped when the waiter tripped."
"Prue, please give me a chance to explain. I wanted to come back but I didn't want to disappoint you. What about Paige? I couldn't live in the Manor when-," he stopped when Phoebe interrupted.
"When she's not your kid? Something you should know is that Paige found her dad. She's smart, she's the reason we have powers, I'm glad we have powers okay? You can't change that we're witches."
"I know that. I don't want to change that about you. You handle yourselves very well."
"It's because of Paige. Isn't it?" Prue asked.
"How can I return to her life when she has a dad?"
"If you had returned when we were kids, Grams may have allowed Sam back into her life," Prue said.
"What about now? Is it too late for me to come back into your life? Surely you'll allow Sam in her life."
"Sam's dead," Piper said.
Paige entered her room that she shared with two witches. They weren't in, they were still at dinner. Paige went to her bed and put her suitcase on it. She put the rest of her clothing in her dresser and placed the two pictures of her mom and dad on her nightstand. She put the now empty suitcase under her bed and grabbed her textbooks.
Several hours later her two roommates stumbled in. They were giggling and when they saw Paige they stopped.
"What are you doing?" Hadley asked.
"Studying," Paige said.
"Why?"
"If you didn't notice I haven't had the privilege of knowing I'm a witch my whole life."
"Says the Charmed One," Melanie said.
"I'm not here because I'm a Charmed One Melanie. I'm here because I actually want to learn more about this witch stuff. The Book of Shadows doesn't have everything. I happen to actually want to fight demons and use my powers for good unlike half the students here."
"So we're rooming with a goody- goody," Hadley said.
"I wouldn't think keeping the fact that I'm a witch- whitelighter from my sisters for three months very 'goody- goody'," Paige said.
"You kept that secret for three months?" Melanie asked.
"Yeah, I mean Phoebe knew but she was clear across the country. Prue and Piper were busy with work. I mean I accidently blew up a chair and told Prue I spilled something."
"And she believed you?"
"I glamoured a burn and she probably just thought I was playing with fire."
"When did they find out?" Melanie asked sitting next to Paige on her bed.
"A little after school started. Before they found out my best friend left me, I fought a couple demons, and my dad was killed by a water demon," Paige said. There was an awkward silence then Paige spoke again.
"My sisters found out soon after that. I orbed Phoebe home and well Piper sort of saw me orb."
"Did she freak?" Hadley asked joining in sitting on the other side of Paige.
"It's Piper, she'd freak if I twisted my ankle. I orbed to New York after Glen didn't want to be my friend anymore and Prue was so pissed." They continued talking into the night and still did even after lights out. Maybe, Paige thought, Magic School wouldn't be so bad after all. Then at three in the morning when she was finally falling asleep she was called by her sisters.
A/N: I know short chapter. I didn't have a lot to do after school today so I had some free time! I hope you enjoyed it! Please don't forget to review!
