Part Sixteen: 4 May 2001: P3
Characters: Leo, Cole, Lila, Billy, Prue (30), Piper (28), Phoebe (25), Paige (23)
Paige was dancing on pure adrenalin as she smiled at her two friends. She loved her job but some days it's was just non-stop chaos and afterwards she had this sudden need to hit a club. And for the last couple of years that club had always been P3.
She always felt a certain contention to P3 since she had found out that Piper Halliwell ran the club. It had almost felt like home for a while now and entering the club gave her this warm kind of glow. The same type of glow that she had been missing for the last six years since that dreadful day that her parents had been killed in the car crash. But P3, always worked as a cure when she was feeling as if she needed a boast and that was definitely what was called for today.
All her deadlines for cases had mounted up to run out at five o'clock today. And she felt like she had been on the phone, at the photocopy machine or typing something on her computer all day.
Paige smiled to herself, at five o'clock and as soon as the last file had been sorted out she had decided she needed a night out. Needless to say it had taken very little time to convince Lila and Billy that they both wanted a night out. And after a quick dinner the three of them had headed down to P3.
Billy waved to get Paige's attention, "It's your turn to go to the bar."
"Ah, can't one of you go," Paige pleaded to her friends. "I've been running errands all day."
Lila laughed, "And we haven't. Next time you try that line, you should use it on people who don't have the same job as you."
"Okay, okay," Paige muttered as she turned, before looking back at her two friends, "I'll be back in a minute."
Paige made her way to the bar and enjoyed one of her favourite hobbies of people watching while she waited to be served. She amused herself while trying to think what people could actually be saying while watching in what was a muted tone because of the loud music.
Paige was jolted out of watching a young couple as she saw a young women with dark hair approach her.
"What can I get you?" Piper asked hardly looking at the young woman she was facing as she glanced over her shoulder to Leo and sent him a smile.
"I'll have a mineral water, a vodka and coke and Budweiser."
Paige allowed her eyes to drift again before paying for the drinks and returning to her friends.
Piper turned away and walked back to her sisters, Leo and Cole. She reached over the bar to kiss Leo, while Prue stared back up the bar.
Prue flicked her eyes between the girl that had just headed back into the crowds on the dance floor and the two couple that were sat next to her. Prue sighed looking at her younger sisters and their partners, she was going to have to find someone soon because she was sick of playing fifth wheel.
"What's the matter?" Piper asked as she noticed her older sister's distracted gaze.
"Nothing really," Prue said as much to herself as Piper. "It's just that girl, she looked really familiar like I've seen her somewhere before."
"She was probably an innocent we saved at some point," Phoebe replied, not taking her eyes off Cole. "I mean we've saved millions in the last three years."
Prue stared at Cole for a second before looking back at both of her sisters, she just could not trust the demon, no matter how many times Phoebe told her that he was good and she loved him.
"Yeah, I guess you're probably right."
"Don't worry about it, Prue," Piper suggested as she followed Prue gaze to Cole herself.
Phoebe noticed the looks her two older sisters were sending at her boyfriend.
"If looks could kill," she muttered to herself before glaring back at them and taking Cole hand. "We're going to work on that power striping potion and if you that worried Prue, just go up at ask her."
Piper's eyes followed Phoebe and Cole as they left the club before glancing back to Prue whose eyes had drifted back to the dance floor.
"You've just got to trust her when she saws that he's good now and he's helped vanquish the last dozen demons."
"I trust her," Prue explained. "Just not him."
Piper sighed and looked at Leo. Her two sister were never going to agree on the 'Cole' issue.
"When the power striping potion has been completed you will have nothing to worry about," Leo explained to her.
"Okay, okay, I get the picture," Prue sighed to herself. "Now back to the girl."
"You're obsessing," Piper told her with a grin. "I say unless a demon suddenly throws a fireball at her, forget it. We've got other things to deal with."
Fin
And as we all know, the three girls meet at Prue's funeral on the 4 October 2001, and as we say the rest is history.
