"Must you always pass out when I tell you this stuff?!" An angry Paige yelled at her husband.
"When it's something this unexpected can you blame me?! We have seen the future! We're supposed to have three sons but the third one is supposed to come later!"
Paige sighed and rubbed her face. "I know this Clark. Don't you think that I am just as shocked as you are?"
He nods before sitting on the foot of the bed. "Where are we gonna put another baby?"
"Stick the baby in there with the boys if it's another boy. Which it probably is."
"He just let that slip! Does he not know the rules?" Phoebe asked Oliver as the two got in bed.
"You would think he would. Pheebs, I have a question. Why would Cole want to help Ethan if he's just as bad as you said?"
Phoebe signed. "I don't even know. I'm still trying to figure it out."
The next day, Ethan and Wyatt sat on one of the couches at Magic School, waiting on Leo to finish grading papers in his office. The sisters were finishing up wedding plans with Phoebe while Clark was at work.
"Coley? You here?" Ethan asked as he and Wyatt worked on a puzzle.
Cole Turner shimmered in beside Ethan. "You okay?"
"Mommy and daddy yelling again," Ethan told the man, glancing up at him.
"When? Last night?"
Ethan nodded. "I no sleep."
Cole frowned. "Don't worry pal. I'll talk to your mother about this."
He shimmered out.
The sisters were going over catering at Pipers restaurant 'Halliwell', when Cole shimmered in.
"You and I need to talk." He told Paige.
"What do you want? You're supposed to be dead remember? Now go." She snapped.
"You and Clark need to quit fighting around Ethan."
Was this demon trying to give Paige parenting advice? That was a line she hoped Cole knew to tread lightly. She stood up to face the man.
"I suggest you don't try to give me parenting advice. Leave my son alone."
Cole scoffed. "I'm here to protect your son remember? Something you don't do very well considering you fight with Clark around him."
Without looking away from Cole, Paige held her hand out. "Ethan." She said. Soon the little boy was orbed down beside his mother.
"Ethan, why are you telling Cole daddy and I were fighting?" She asked, not looking down at her young son.
"Y-You were...yelling." He said, stuttering.
"We were not yelling Ethan." She scolded.
Ethan went to speak but stayed quiet, slowly backing away from his mother.
"Ethan, do not tell this demon anything about what happens in our home" she commanded.
Phoebe stood up. "Paige, calm down."
"Calm down? I'm getting unwanted marriage advice from someone who is supposed to be dead! A man who turned you evil! Tried to kill me!" She snapped.
Finally, her eyes laid on her scared son, tears falling down his face.
Her face instantly softened. "Oh Ethan, mommy's sorry."
She bent down to hug him, but was left heartbroken as Ethan sped to Coles arms, crying softly into the shoulder of Coles brown button up shirt.
Cole gently rubbed the boys back before shimmering away
