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.

"Glad to see my sister," Piper replied, putting her arm around her shoulder. "Otherwise, still doing okay."

Just okay.

Phoebe leaned into her. "Glad to see my sister, to. Would be happier if she'd talk to me."

Piper gave her a strange look. "I'm talking to you right now."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"You seem... not your usual self, Piper. You never tell me that you're just okay."

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"But I am. There's nothing for you to worry about," Piper replied. As far as she was concerned, this was her usual self. "Just got a few things on my mind, but nothing serious."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"If one person tells me that it's nothing for me to worry about..."

"I'm sorry. I'm not trying to upset you," Piper said sincerely. "I guess...lately I've been thinking about the past a lot."

The dream last week and seeing Wyatt and...it wasn't that surprising she'd be reminded of things.

She curled close to her sister. "So, talk to your sister."

"I had that dream last week, the one I always have around the anniversary..." The anniversary of when Leo had gone away. "And I talked to Wyatt the other day. It was so good to see him, but...he reminds me of Leo. You know?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Wyatt's here?" She had missed that news, but she was glad he was here. "I wish I could bring Leo back for you, Piper. I wish so much that I could." She raised her eyes to Piper's face. "Why didn't you tell me last week when you had the nightmare?"

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"Because it wasn't that much of a big deal," Piper shrugged. "It was a little different this time. He told me to move on in the dream. Probably my subconscious telling me not to keep living in the past."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"How do you feel about that?"

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"I think that's the smart thing to do," Piper said quietly. "But I can't help hoping that maybe I could have a family someday."

The family she could have had with Leo.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"You can have a family, Piper," Phoebe said softly. "It just won't be with Leo because the Elders are assholes."

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"I know," Piper said. "Maybe someday..."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"I know you will... and hopefully soon."

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

Piper smiled. "But first I have to spoil my nieces."

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

She laughed. "They're going to love their Aunt Piper."

[snarky-witch.livejournal.com]

"And I am going to love them," Piper replied, grinning.

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"I'm excited."
