Prologue

AN: I know that I published this story before and then took it down; but I hated the writing and it needed much much editing. I will re-publish the chapters that I had posted before over the next few days; whether I continue or not is up to you guys. The more reviews I get, the more encouraged I am.

This takes place at the end of Morality Bites.

After Leo left, Piper noticed that Prue was standing and staring off into nothing at the window. She slowly approached her and put her hand on Prue's back, startling her and making her jump.

"Oh, Piper it's you"

"Sorry sweetie, I didn't mean to scare you, are you ok?"

Prue was struggling internally between telling Piper and just lying about it, but Piper solved the problem for her.

"You do know that I will be able to tell if you're lying, right?"

"Can you please get Phoebe? I think we need to talk."

"Sure PHEEEEEBS" Piper yelled making Prue jump and glare at her, to which Piper gave a cheeky smile.

Phoebe came into the living room and looked at her sisters "what's wrong you guys?" she asked.

Prue sighed and motioned for them to sit down. She started playing with her fingers nervously as she sat between them on the couch.

Piper finally decided to break the silence "come on Prue you're scaring us, what's going on?"

"Whatever it is sweetie I know we'll work it out" Phoebe said, as she rubbed circles on Prue's back.

Prue looked up from staring at her hands and they realized that she had tears in her eyes "I'm pregnant"

Prue looked at her sisters carefully to see their reactions, Piper was looking at her as if she had two heads and Phoebe's mouth was as wide as the Grand Canyon.

"Guys please say something" she said through her tears.

"How?" was all Phoebe could master.

"After we switched back our powers- after saving Daisy from that darklighter- I went to see Andy because I knew I wouldn't be able to see him again for a long time and I wanted to say goodbye…." She trailed off as she stared at her shoes.

"And?" a still shocked Piper asked.

Both Prue and Phoebe gave her this look of 'you know and'

"Piper she said she's pregnant, I think the 'and' part is pretty obvious" Phoebe said incredulously.

They looked up at the sound of Prue's sobs, Piper took her into her arms and Prue rested her head on Piper's shoulder while Phoebe rubbed circles on her back and held her hand.

"When did you find out?" Piper gently asked.

"Remember when Abraxas unvanquished Nicholas the warlock?"

Both sisters nodded.

"How can we forget? He nearly killed you!" Phoebe exclaimed.

"Well they ran tests at the hospital and the doctor told me right before I got home, which is why I felt so horrible"

"Oh my God, sweetie I'm so sorry; why didn't you say anything?" Phoebe said.

"I think I wasn't ready to admit it to myself yet, not to mention that I wasn't sure if I was gonna keep the baby"

"What do you mean?" Piper asked, as she raised an eyebrow.

Prue sat up straight and looked at her sisters' faces to find that both of them had the same anticipating look on their faces, "come on you guys, you know what kind of life we lead….I didn't know if I could bring a child into a world where he/she is being constantly attacked, and don't tell me we'll be able to protect is since what happened to its daddy is proof that things can get out of hand sometime" Prue practically screamed the answer through her tears.

"Ok, I get that you are frustrated with the situation, and your fear is completely rational and justified, but sweetie Andy took us by surprise so we weren't prepared but with a baby in the house I think we'll always be on alert" Piper said.

"Yea and if any demon tries to go for it they have to get through me first" Phoebe said in her famous 'baby voice' causing Prue to laugh.

"Look Prue, I promise you no one will lay a finger on your baby" Piper said.

Prue smiled down at her stomach and said "Thanks you guys"

They both hugged her tight.

"You are gonna be so cute…yes you are…oooooooh yes you are" Phoebe said in her 'baby voice' to Prue's flat stomach causing both of her sisters to erupt in giggles.
