44 Blueberry Hill, Saturday

[sleepswthdemons]

Phoebe was tired of being cooped up and feeling a little restless. She couldn't seem to get comfortable and her emotions and hormones were slightly frayed.

Ok, more than slightly.

After some wheedling, begging and threatening, the boys had helped Phoebe get settled on the front porch swing.

She was, of course, wearing a jacket and there was a blanket nearby in case she got chilled. There was also a pitcher of Lavender Jasmine tea on the table next to her as well as her laptop and a selection of trashy novels.

Piper spotted her sister sitting out on the porch next door, so she wandered over. "Hey, Pheebs. How are you feeling?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Cooped up and henpecked," Phoebe said with a smile. "How are you?"

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"The guys are being over protective, huh?" Piper smiled, taking a seat next to Phoebe. "I'm doing okay."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Pretty much."

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"I guess I can understand that, but it's not like you have some terrible disease or something," Piper pointed out. "It's nice to see you out."

Connor had spent yesterday sleeping under the gazebo. He'd slept in worse places in Quartoth. He'd also raided the supossed Divine Leaf's trash. Scrounging for food was a valuable survival skill in hell.

He just didn't know what to make of this place. It looked, felt, and even smelled like Milieux. Either someone was going to a lot of trouble for this charade, or something impossible had happened.

He was still dressed only in the scrubs he'd found at the clinic. Prowling around during the day probably wasn't the stealthiest thing he could do, but he needed to get a sense of this place during daylight hours.

His senses were still tuned to hell. That might be why he didn't know Phoebe was there until it was too late to hide.

Phoebe felt someone arrive near her and she lifted her head from the impromptu nap she had taken.

She stared for a moment.

"Connor?"

[prodigalpawn.livejournal.com]

Connor froze, turned, and stared as well. He'd been gone a long time. It took a moment for him to remember her name. "Pheobe?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

She nodded slowly.

He shook his head. "No, I don't believe you. This is a trick. It's all a trick." But he really wanted to believe it.

Lana was passing by on her way to check on Dean when she saw Phoebe out on the swing. She hesitated, but she really wanted to see her friend and hadn't since before Jim - well, since before Jim. She wasn't sure if Anders - Sam, god, she was never going to get used to calling him Sam - had told her about it or not.

"Hey, Phoebe," she said quietly.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Lana!" Phoebe looked genuinely happy to see her.

[dark-innocence.livejournal.com]

Lana smiled at her. "How are you - and the little ones- doing?" she asked gently.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

She extended her hand for Lana to come sit with her.

"I'm tired and the twins are active."

[dark-innocence.livejournal.com]

Lana came up and sat beside her. "I can imagine. Not too much longer now, huh?"

Sam drifted out of the house at some point, just to check on Phoebe. He didn't say anything at first, simply content to stand in the doorway and watch her with a smile on his face.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

She turned to look at him and smiled.

[beenthroughthat.livejournal.com]

"Hey, gorgeous," Sam said. "Enjoying yourself?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Come sit with me?"

[beenthroughthat.livejournal.com]

"Twist my arm, why don't you?" Though Sam didn't exactly wait for a response to that before he came to sit beside her. "How're my three favorite girls?"

Isabel was returning from a day playing tourist when she saw Phoebe on the porch. "You're glowing," she smiled.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Isabel!" Her face lit up.

[desertaliengirl.livejournal.com]

"Hey stranger," Isabel replied, climbing the steps to the porch. "How are you?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Much better now that you're here. How are you?"

[desertaliengirl.livejournal.com]

"Tired," she admitted. "I took one of those walking tours in New Orleans. I feel like we walked forever. But it was really interesting."
