Chapter 3
"You're telling me you didn't sense a thing?" Cole asked, looking at Paige. Paige shrugged, and put a finger to her lips.
"Cole hush up! If Phoebe hears you she'll freak." Paige ordered. Cole nodded, and sat on Paige's bedroom chair.
"Just answer me, please?" Cole exclaimed. Paige nodded, and looked down.
"I've been able to sense a lot of things, lately. But, nothing demonic. This is weird Cole I can barley sense you. But I believe you, because as low as you've sunk you always had pride that you never sucked up." Paige replied. That brought a smile to Cole's face.
"Thanks Paige. But we still need to do something." Cole said. He stood up again, only to pace at a nervous rhythm. Paige's eye brows dropped.
"Cole, if Justin really said that to you, then that's beside the point. Did you try telling her?" Paige asked. Cole shrugged.
"What are you kidding? She won't even hear one word of my apology, let alone my advice." Cole replied. Paige nodded.
"I'll talk to her, but I can't really say a lot because if she knew we talked behind her back like this." Paige trailed off. Cole nodded.
"Has she told you and Piper about..?" Cole also trailed off. Paige raised an eyebrow.
"The baby? No I found the test, and I don't even think she knows that I know. I haven't told Piper. Like I said. I'm going to talk to her, and set her back on track." Paige replied. She saw the still worried expression on Cole's face, and then smiled.
"I can't help to think that's with you." Paige said. Cole suddenly felt a big smile creep across his face, as he looked at Paige. Suddenly, they heard footsteps, and finally a door handle turn. Cole waved goodbye at Paige and shimmered out. Phoebe stuck her head in, carrying Tristan.
"Hey, Paige were you talking to someone?" Phoebe asked, looking around the room. Paige smiled.
"Uh, Leo was uh, here earlier." Paige said. Phoebe nodded, and stepped in the room.
"Piper wanted me to tell you that she went to the club. I have a date with Justin later so you're going to have to watch Tristan, okay?" Phoebe asked, sitting on the same chair Cole sat at. Paige smiled, and then let it fade.
"Yeah, about that. Phoebe, I know." Paige exclaimed. Phoebe looked up, and felt as if her heart had stopped.
"About what?" Phoebe asked, still trying to play it cool. Paige rolled her eyes.
"The baby Phoebe. And about Cole and about Justin. How long into the pregnancy are you?" Paige sat down on the bed next to Phoebe, and took Tristan from her. The baby immediately sensed that the room wasn't as cheerful as it had been, and looked up at his aunts questionably.
"Two months. I'm going to start showing soon. I don't really know who the father is." Phoebe blurted. Tears started coming down her cheeks. Before Paige could reply, Phoebe started off again.
"I thought at first Cole, but then I went to tell him and he said I should just assume Justin is because he was my mistake. And he was right I made him feel like shit for about half a god damn year. And I can't answer him because the sound of his voice makes me feel so guilty and the thought of him actually thinking that he should apologize is driving me insane!" Phoebe announced. Paige's mouth dropped. Phoebe was obviously in need of serious help. She started to talk, but then Phoebe cut her off.
"And It's not like he never did anything wrong, I mean I've been in more pain than he has but still he wasn't a mistake, not entirely. And Justin was so happy at first but now it's like he doesn't want anything to do with me or the baby. It's like he's just waiting around until the baby is born for something." Phoebe finally finished. Tears were running down her face, as she stared into Tristan's dark brown eyes. Paige tried yet again to talk, but..
"And I haven't even told Piper yet, and of course she's going to be upset because she would like it if I had told her when I first found out." Phoebe exclaimed. Paige sighed.
"Phoebe, listen to me. Okay?" Paige asked. Phoebe wiped away her tears and nodded.
"Okay. First of all. Don't worry about Piper. She loves you and will stick by you through this whole mess, and so will I and you know it. Even Leo will be here for you. Second of all, this baby is not a curse, it's a gift. And even though it didn't come at the best time it's still yours. It's yours and either Cole's or Justin's. But, Phoebe, you know that Cole is willing to help you. Just think about how he feels, I'm not talking about pain or sadness; I'm talking about joy and happiness. He now has a reason to live again, and it's not completely you. Don't feel so guilty, he let it go and you need to too." Paige paused, Phoebe was so upset, and she didn't want to start to tell her about Justin, not quite yet. Phoebe sniffled, and then smiled.
"Thanks Paige." Phoebe replied. Paige smiled and nodded. She hugged Phoebe.
"That's what sisters are for." Paige answered back. They heard a small giggle, and looked down at Tristan, who had a certain sparkle in his eye.

"You're not, mad?" Phoebe asked. Piper shook her head.
"A little upset, maybe that you didn't tell me. And a little confused about that whole father thing, but you have to admit Phoebe that does make you sound like a slut." Piper replied. Somehow, this time she could tell Phoebe needed some serious humor in her life, and she realized that going harder on her wasn't going to get them anywhere.
"Thanks." Phoebe said. She hugged her sister, and then looked at Leo who had been watching.
"Maybe the elders know." Leo suggested. Phoebe smiled and nodded.
"Oh yeah, Leo can you ask them things like that?" Phoebe asked. Leo nodded.
"Since it affects weather the baby will have an evil history or not, yeah." Leo replied. Phoebe smiled, for the first time in a while, she felt happy again.
