The sun was peeking through a tiny gap from the curtains illuminating Billie's broken, pale face. Phoebe had been watching the younger women since she woke up, an hour ago, it was clear she was having a disturbing dream, she was whimpering slightly, biting her dry, cracked lips and moving her head a little bit, but try as she might Phoebe couldn't get the younger girl to wake up. 'Stupid potion.' Phoebe thought. 'Peaceful sleep my arse and now I can't even wake her up. A light knock on the door pulled Phoebe out of her musings.
"Come in." She whispered, the door opened and revealed Paige.
"How is she?"
"She's having a nightmare but I can't wake her up." Phoebe told her sighing and sitting up. "I don't want to leave her in case she wakes up and freaks out."
"I can stay with her if you want to get a shower and something to eat." Paige offered. Phoebe was torn, she really didn't want to leave the blondes' side but she knew she would be of no use if she didn't take care of herself. Smiling to Paige, Phoebe accepted her younger sisters offer.

Billie's broken, battered body was curled up, the poor girl couldn't make herself any smaller if she tried. The whip was out and was crashing into her back. It was as if Billie wasn't in her own body, she could hear herself screaming but didn't recognise it as her own, she could hear the whip crashing into her back before she felt the fiery, unbearable pain, she could hear the demons sick, manic laughter after every crack and scream. But she wouldn't give in, she'd rather die.
"You're such a pretty girl Billie, it's such a shame we have to mar your body with these scars." The demon attempted to sound sorry but she knew he wasn't. She knew he was also didn't care, she no longer cared about herself, they could kill her and it wouldn't faze her. She already knew she was going to die in this hell.
"No matter how many scars I give you your still hot, I still want to fuck you." He said with a sick grin on his face. His eyes had darkened with lust and looked practically black. Billie whimpered, she tried not to look terrified but knew it wasn't working she was going to be raped. This was worse then death.
The demon slammed his lips onto Billie's in an aggressive way, claiming her. He bit her lower lip hard enough to draw blood before sucking it off. "Tasty." He murmured as he toyed with the bottom of her tank top, ripping it off her viciously his hands trailed across her torso. Billie couldn't move, she was frozen in fear. All she could think about was this was it. He was going to make her, filthy, dirty, disgusting, worthless nothing more than a whore. She would hate herself now even more than before.
He slowly pulled her leggings down and Billie bit her bottom lip and slammed her eyes shut, as if that would stop it. She could feel his hands on her body, his hot sticky breath making her want to throw up.
"NO!" She screamed. Not being able to stop herself as he continued his torture. "NO! Get out of me! Stop please! NO!" Billie screamed, begged, pleaded but all this did was make the demon get more rough, hurt her more, make her want to die!
~o0o~
"NO!" Paige jumped in shock at the outburst from Bille. "NO! Get out of me! Stop! Please! NO!" By the time Billie finished her outburst Phoebe and Piper had run into room.
"NO! NO! GET OUT OF ME! PLEASE! STOP! STOP! STOP!"
"Oh god is she? Are they?" Piper tried to ask but couldn't get the word out.
"GET OUT OF ME!"
"Yes." Paige whispered.
"Billie wake up. Sweetie you're safe here you're safe. Just open your eyes, you are safe here. I promise you. Open them Billie. Wake up." Phoebe begged pulling the terrified but still sleeping blonde into her arms. "Come back to me Billie. Wake up." She whispered so only the blonde could hear quickly opened her eyes and panicked, she could feel someone touching her and immediately stiffened.
"It's okay Billie, it's just me. I won't hurt you. I promise." These words broke Billie's resolve and the young girl crumbled, finally breaking down. Tears cascaded down her cheeks and her whole body shook violently. Phoebe pulled the broken girl close to her and whispering sweet nothings to comfort her.
"I'll go get something for you to eat." Piper said to Billie but the blonde didn't hear her over her violent sobs. Phoebe continued to stroke the young girls hair and whisper comforting words but she didn' take her eyes of Paige, both of whom were trying desperately not to cry themselves.
"Don't let him hurt me." Bille begged. "Please make him stop. I... can't... stop please... I... I stop him... please." Billie whispered through her tears.
"I won't let him hurt you Billie. I won't let anyone hurt you ever again." Phoebe said forcefully.
"Please. I don't want to be dirty anymore."
"You are not dirty honey. None of this is your fault." Phoebe told her still looking at Paige and now Piper who had just walked through the door. "Sweetie, Piper has bought you a sandwich do you think you could eat it for me?" She asked as if talking to a three-year-old. Billie sniffed and nodded slightly. Piper handed Phoebe the plate and Phoebe laid it on the bed in front of the blonde.
Slowly and tentatively Billie reached out for the sandwich as if expecting someone to move it away from her and beat her for going for it. Picking it up she glanced at the sisters before moving to take a small bite. After three small bites she put the sandwich back on the plate and looked down at her lap.
"What's wrong Billie?" Piper asked her.
"Not hungry." Billie said so softly that the other three occupants of the room could barely hear her. The Charmed one's all exchanged a confused look. All noticing how skinny the young adult looked.
"I can make something else if you don't like the sandwich." Piper offered from her place at the foot of the bed.
"I'm full. Thank you it was very nice." Billie said still avoiding eye contact. Paige nodded knowingly and motioned to her sisters to meet her in the hallway. After excusing themselves they followed Paige.
"Is this about why she won't eat?" Phoebe asked clearly worried.
Paige nodded. "She hasn't eaten properly in so long her stomach has shrunk. I don't want to think about how often she ate if three bites, well they barely even count as bites, fills her up."
"I'm going to see if I can get her to eat some more." Phoebe said walking back towards the room.
"Okay. I've got a new charge so call if you need me." Paige informed her sisters before orbing out.
"I'll be downstairs with the boys. I'll come up with some water for her soon." And with that Piper walked downstairs. Taking a deep breath Phoebe calmed herself down, she couldn't break down now. Billie needed her to be strong.
"Billie sweetie?" Phoebe asked tentatively as she sat down on the bed. "Do you think you could do another two bites for me?" Billie looked up at her like she was crazy. Asking her to eat. 'Eating gets me beat.' Billie thought to herself. 'She's tricking you into eating so that she can hurt you. Phoebe. This is Phoebe, she wouldn't hurt me... would she? No. Yes. Maybe. Ugh I don't know.' Billie's thoughts were running through her so quickly she thought she was going to be sick.
"I-I can't" She faltered.
"Okay honey, we can just get a bit more sleep if you want?" Billie nodded and as Phoebe moved the plate away she laid herself down onto the bed. Phoebe moved in next to her and was thoroughly shocked when Billie scooted into her and fisted her tank top. 'It's just for comfort.' Both witches thought before drifting off to sleep.
Piper came up a few hours later with two glasses of fresh orange juice and a plate full of sandwiches for Phoebe and Billie to share. Easing the door open she saw the two younger women curled into each other, Billie resting her head on Phoebe's chest, fisting her vest top, Phoebe with her arms wrapped around the younger girl as if protecting her from the world, her face buried in Billie's hair with a content smile on her face. Piper thought about taking a picture but quickly decided against it, Billie would have enough reminders about this horrendous time she didn't need photographic evidence. Piper walked over to Phoebe deciding to wake her up first so as not to freak Billie out.
"Pheebs wake up, I've got food." She said quietly into the middle sisters ear. Phoebe moaned but snuggled further into Billie. "Pheebs wakey wakey." Phoebe slowly opened her eyes and smiled when she saw Billie. Turning her head slightly she saw Piper.
"Hey." She said her voice thick with sleep.
"Good afternoon." Piper replied with a knowing smile on her face. "I've got some snacks for you two to share. I let you deal with Billie just text me when you're done and I'll come back for the tray." And with that Piper left the room and went back downstairs to her sons and husband. Phoebe turned her attention back to the blonde in her arms who looked so small and broken in her sleep, a frown marring her perfect face.
"Billie honey, wake up." Billie whispered managing to get one hand free and stroke the girls face. 'Waking up like this every morning would be perfect.' Phoebe thought. 'No Phoebe you can't think like that, she has just been tortured. Do you get that? TORTURED! Keep your feelings to yourself at least until she's better.'
"Billie?" Billie scrunched her eyes and nose up in the most adorable way making Phoebe's heart skip a beat and Billie tightened her hold on Phoebe's top, before opening her eyes and looking into the empathic witch's eyes. "Hey honey. Piper bought us something to eat. Do you want some?" Billie didn't answer Phoebe straight away she just looked into her eyes, as if she was searching for something, anything. After a few seconds that seemed to last an eternity in Phoebe's opinion Billie finally found what she was looking for. Removing herself from Phoebe's clutches and letting go of her top she sat herself up and nodded.
"We have ham or cheese, what kind do you want?" Phoebe said looking at the large array of sandwiches her older sister had prepared for them.
Billie swallowed thickly and Phoebe passed her a glass of orange juice which Billie took gratefully and drank all of it as quickly as she could. "Thanks." Billie managed to get out.
Phoebe smiled. "So what do you want?"
"Ham please." Phoebe nodded and handed Billie a triangle ham sandwich and watched her take her first small bite before getting herself a cheese one. After eating half of her sandwich Billie had enough and went to put it down on the tray.
"Honey could you please try to finish that. I know you're full but if you don't eat properly you'll get ill." Phoebe gave Billie a look pleading with the girl to get her to finish the halve sandwich. Taking a deep breath in Billie brought the sandwich back to her mouth and forced herself to finish it off.
It took Billie five minutes to force herself to eat the rest of her dinner and now she was trying to ignore how her stomach felt. She could feel it churning, feel the acid rising. She knew she was going to throw up but she was trying to last as long as she could. Phoebe was still eating her dinner but she wasn't really paying attention to what she was doing, she was watching Billie intensely.
Suddenly Billie launched herself of off the bed and into the bathroom, slamming the door behind her she emptied the little contents of her stomach into the toilet. It didn't take long until she was dry heaving. Phoebe had followed her in and held her hair back as she emptied herself into the porcelain bowl. Billie rested her hot, sweaty, clammy forehead on the cold toilet welcoming the coolness.
"Come on sweetie lets get you into some different PJ's and get you back into bed." Billie didn't answer just let Phoebe pull her up and into the bedroom. Phoebe left the room and went downstairs whilst Billie got re-dressed. She returned with a bowl of cold water and a flannel.
When Phoebe came back into the room Billie was wearing baggy sweat pants and a baggy top and was already back in bed. Phoebe walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed. Getting the flannel from the bowl and ringing it out she placed it carefully on Billie's forehead.
"This should cool you down a bit." She said quietly biting her bottom lip in worry. Billie smiled her thanks before closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep.
