Chapter 13 - Build it all back up.

Piper watched as her youngest went through the motions. He walked dull and his vibrant green eyes were now slightly darker with grief.

She knew why. Since that night almost a week ago he had been different. Less outgoing and more inwardly focused. Scarlett had hurt him when she ran from him. That was the thing bout Chris she mused as she wiped down her oven.

He cared to much and hated the thought that someone he loves was hurting. And he loved Scarlett of that she was sure. She loved him too. Looking at the pair reminded her faintly of her and Leo. Sighing she resolved to do something about it.

Chris had agreed to take a small job working as a line chef within her restaurant and would be out until later on. She grabbed her coat and walked across the street to the looming building in front of her vision.


She stood o the porch and remembered how Remus had stood here knocking on the door for half an hour before he slipped a piece of paper through the letter box and reluctantly left.

Forgoing knocking she pushed against the oak wood and it creaked open. Tentatively she stepped inside. Gone were the shards of glass and paper that Chris described to them.

The smell of rotting food was also gone replaced by a new smell of instant coffee. She silently made her way into the house and stopped on the threshold of the living room. There in the corner with mousey brown hair and dull gray eyes clutching a, what it appeared to be anyways, half filled mug of cold coffee.

"Has it told you it's secrets yet" She said. Scarlett looked up and if the red rings around her eyes were any indication she had been crying.

"What?" She said questioningly.

"You're staring into the mug with such intensity I assumed it was an interrogation" Piper said. Scarlett shrugged and dropped her gaze to the floor. Piper slowly made her way across the room towards her gripping her elbow she gently hoisted her up and maneuvered her into the kitchen.

Placing her on a chair that sat surrounding an island counter she walked over to the fridge. Surprised at finding it fully stocked and fresh she turned to the teen behind her.

"Freshening charm...Keeps food form going bad...Sirius placed it before he..." She trailed off. Piper began to pull out items and within a few minutes prepared a ham and cheese salad sandwich.

Pushing the plate towards her she motioned for her to eat. When Scarlett had finished she quietly asked "Piper...what are you doing doing here"

"Making sure you're okay"

"But why...I almost killed you...I almost destroyed the world...How can you just sit there and be fine with it" Scarlett said shame filling each word.

"Cos I've been there" Piper said when Scarlett looked up in confusion she elaborated "When my sister died...I was so mad at her...She just left me here to deal with all of this. I didn't know how to be an older sister I was sued to being the middle one who was the peace keeper. Eventually when we faced some fury demons things came to a head"

"You became one"

"I did...And you know what...I liked it. It was easy to just give it up...Until Paige managed to help me grieve and move on...The point is...I know what you're going through and in this family its like a rite of passage to be evil at least once" She joked.

"But with you the fury left...I can still feel it...Pushing in my head...I was in control up until I stole the magic from the book and Wyatt...And I liked it. The source told me I was just like him and Voldemort...What if he's right. What if I am destined to be evil"

"Scarlett...You are one of the nicest and most good person I have ever met...You of all people could never turn your back on the light"

"But what if I do?" She whispered.

"Then we save you...Just like last time" Piper said.

Pipers words washed over her and she felt warm and peaceful with them. Smiling she pulled Piper into a hug. "Think you can face Chris?" She asked.

"Oh god Chris! What do I say...I mean I just ran out of there with no explanation or anything...He'll hate me!" She panicked.

"Scarlett listen to yourself...Chris loves you and you love him. Something like this wont change that" Piper soothed.

"Okay...I'm ready" She whispered more to herself than anyone.


Chris tried really hard to be happy. He got a job as a cook at Halliwells and tried to stay positive. But inside he was crying and churning.

Scarlett, his first and only love, was hurting and he had no way of helping her. This hurt him more, his mother always told him he spread himself too thin about things like this but he hated it if someone he loved was hurting and he could do nothing.

Sighing he made his way home. Unlocking the door he briefly noted the smell of cookie dough baking. Hanging his jacket on the hooks by the door he called out to the house.

"Mom...I'm..." He paused when he saw Scarlett standing in front of him. She had mousey brown hair again but her green eyes were back "Home" He whispered the last part.

"Hi Chris" She said playing with the hem of her shirt like she did when she was nervous about something. He didn't say anything but hugged her close and kissed her softly hoping she would somehow know of his feelings through this contact. They broke apart and he hugged her close again while she whispered "I'm sorry" Over and over.

He didn't care...She was back with him and he felt over joyed with this. Behind him his mother watched dusting flour from her apron smiling softly at her son. Leo came up behind her and smiled with her.

All was well for now in the Halliwell manor.
