Chapter two
February (Billie's Valentine's Day babysitting nightmare)
Everyone sat down at the kitchen table for lunch. Wyatt was too excited to eat, so he settled for just milk. It was Wyatt's 9th birthday, a party was planned. The usual guests along with Wyatt's friends: Dakota, Kennedy, Austin, Carter and Lizzy were attending.
Around three Darryl, Sheila and Darryl Junior arrived, followed by Victor and Billie. Not long after Wyatt's friends arrived. Wyatt greeted them and brought them into the living room. They immediately started a game of cowboys.
"So give me an update on Wyatt" Victor said.
"Well He's very social and playful, and noisy" Piper stated.
"He's smart, well behaved, and very affectionate" Leo added.
"He's a good reader, can do simple multiplication, and write in full sentences" Piper added.
Little Parker was trying to catch up to the other children who were running around like wild animals. P.J. accidently knocked Parker down. Parker started crying so P.J. put her arms around her.
"I'm sorry baby sis, its ok don't cry" P.J. told Parker and kissed her forehead.
Parker slowly calmed down and hugged her sister. P.J. decided to play with Parker instead of her cousins. P.J. placed Parker on her lap and read her a short children's story. P.J. loved reading to Parker.
Phoebe and Coop smiled at their daughters. The bond they had was very sweet. Parker listened to every word P.J. read to her. P.J. was very good with Parker and tended to make her laugh often.
"Billie how's the pregnancy going" Prue asked.
"Not bad. I'm always tired, I always have to pee, morning sickness is bad, and I'm always hungry for marshmallows, and I'm finally showing. How's your pregnancy going" Billie explained.
"Mostly the same, always tired, bad morning sickness, sometimes heartburn, and lots of cramps" Prue explained.
"Be thankful you're not fat yet" Piper stated.
For supper Piper made Wyatt's favourite meal, roast beef and mashed potatoes. The guests seated themselves at the table and Piper served them. Piper then served herself and joined the others. After supper Piper and Leo came into the kitchen sinning while holding the cake.
"Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday dear Wyatt, Happy birthday to you."
Piper and Leo placed the cake on the table in-front of Wyatt. Wyatt made a whish then blew out his candle. After the cake was served and eaten, it was time for Wyatt to open his presents. He got: Games clothes, toys and books.
Two days before Valentine's Day, the family got an unexpected call from Billie.
"Hallowell residence, Henry speaking."
"Hey it's Billie."
"Hold on I'll put you on speaker… ok go ahead."
"Hey everyone, so I don't have any plans for Valentine's Day, I can babysit for you" Billie offered.
"Are you sure, it can get hectic" Paige stated.
"As long as I stay human I'll be fine" Billie said.
"Can't make any promises" Phoebe joked.
"I'll take my chances."
"Alright, what time" Piper asked.
"Is four good for you" Billie asked.
"Sure" Leo agreed.
At 3:50 on Valentine's Day Billie arrived at the manor. The adults gave her the instructions and left. Before leaving Prue handed Payton over to Billie. Holding Payton, Billie found Belle and the other 8 children sitting on the living room couch.
"Ok so Wyatt, Chris I know you have homework, go work on it please" Billie asked.
"Can we paint" the girls asked standing beside their aisles.
"Yes you can, but wear your paint clothes" Billie agreed.
Wyatt and Chris dragged their school bags into the kitchen. Billie put Payton in the playpen and helped the girls set up the paint. Little Henry and Parker where playing with play do. For about five minutes everything was fine, then Wyatt came into the living room.
"Billie, Chris won't do his homework" Wyatt tattled.
"Ok I'm coming" Billie said and followed Wyatt back into the kitchen.
"Chris you need to do your homework, do you need help" Billie asked.
"No, I hate this homework" Chris stated.
"I'm going to count to three, if you don't start your homework you will go on time out" Billie warned.
Billie counted to three but Chris didn't budge. Billie took his arm and put him on the time out chair. When she turned around she discovered Parker was painting the TV. Billie rushed over to her and told her only to paint on the paper.
Parker didn't like being told what to do, so she painted Billie's face. Billie took away the paint brush and Parker screamed her head off. Billie ignored this and cleaned the paint off the TV. Chris then orbed off time out.
Melinda sensed Chris was outside, which was bad since it was freezing that day. Billie rushed out and dragged him back inside. Billie then put Chris in the magic proof room for seven minutes. Back in the living room Billie caught Henry and Parker sticking play do and stockers in each other's hair. So Billie brought them upstairs to the bathroom and removed it from their hair.
When Billie returned she found the girls painting on each other. Billie had enough and took the paint and brushes away. This caused the girls to throw a tantrum. That's when Payton began crying. Billie walked over to the playpen and picked up Payton.
Once she did this a fight broke out between Wyatt and Chris. At first she ignored it, but when she heard a bang against the wall, Billie hurried into the kitchen holding the screaming almost two year old. The bang had been Wyatt's math text book smacking the wall.
Wyatt ripped up Chris's homework, so Chris used his telekinesis to make all of Wyatt's things fly off the table. Wyatt then hit his brother on his arm, this really got Chris riled up. Chris used his telekinesis to make a plastic bowl fly off the counter towards Wyatt. Wyatt orbed out of the way which caused the bowl to smack Chris in the face.
"Boy's stop" Billie ordered.
Chris simply orbed Billie and Payton back into the living room. Hearing Payton cry, the girls throwing a tantrum, and the boys fighting was driving Billie crazy. Billie sighed and put Payton down in the playpen.
"Girl's stop crying, you're not going to die, go to your rooms" Billie ordered.
The girls obeyed and orbed/beamed up to their rooms. Then Billie entered the kitchen to deal with the boys. They were still going at it.
"That's enough! Wyatt go to your room, Chris you stay here" Billie instructed.
Wyatt orbed up to his room and shorty orbed his homework to him. Chris stayed at the table and did his homework. Billie went to get Payton, changed her, and then made supper for the kids.
Supper didn't go well either. Even though Billie had the power of telepathy she didn't manage to stop the food fight fast enough. Chris orbed his mash potatoes on Wyatt's head. Wyatt attempted to use his telekinesis to make Chris's cup of juice spill on him, however Chris used his telekinesis to make the cup of juice spill on Melinda instead.
Melinda chucked her steak at Chris who orbed out of the way, causing the steak to smack P.J. on her cheek. P.J. attempted to throw the steak back at her but it got Tamora instead. From there it go way out of hand.
"Kids stop it" Billie ordered as she dogged a couple of flying peas.
"I mean it… Kat don't you dare" Billie snapped as she ducked a fly steak.
"Stop it right now, or I'll tell your parents" Billie warned.
Not even this worked, so Billie got up and grabbed Parker and Kat by their waists. Billie carried them into the magic prof room. Billie then returned to the kitchen and grabbed P.J. and Melinda's arms. Billie dragged them into the magic prof room. She then returned to kitchen and made sandwiches.
Billie served one to Henry and one to Payton. Billie brought the rest to the magic prof room. There she gave them to the children.
"That's all you're getting, you can leave once you're done" Billie informed.
Billie turned on the TV for Henry and changed Payton. Afterwards Billie had the other children clean up their mess. When they started there was: food on the walls, table, chairs and floor, there was juice and milk all over the table, chairs and floor. When they were done: the walls were spotless, the table, chairs and floor was clean, and all the dishes were in the dish washer.
The next problem was that the kids were covered in food and juice/milk. Billie checked her watch, it was almost seven. So she washed their hair, then they got into their pajamas. Billie disposed the dirty clothes in the hamper.
By then it was 7:20, almost bedtime. Billie read them a story, then tucked them into bed. For the rest of the time. Billie read a book she had brought with her. At nine the adults arrived back home.
"So how was" Piper asked.
"You're kids…are a piece of work" Billie stated.
"Told ya" Piper replied.
