Prologue
So, here's the situation: Piper and Phoebe are the only original Halliwell's at the moment. Prue and Paige were given up for adoption. Paige went to the Matthews and Prue went to this family called the Hennessey's at age six (She was an orphan all her life).
Prue is 29
Paige is 22
Piper is 26
Phoebe is 24
This is in the year 2000. Grams is still alive Leo and Piper are engaged. Plus, Prue has a daughter (Don't kill me!). By the way, I'm new to this so give me some time.
----------
The sound of tittering birds could be heard outside as the sun shone brightly through the window. Somewhere in the room, an alarm clock rang.
Prue, still feeling sleepy, looked up. It was just eight in the morning. "Two more minutes." She muttered to herself as she hit the button and snuggled back into her blanket. "Two minutes…"
Her bedroom door suddenly flew open and in came bouncing a fifteen year old girl, dressed in denim jeans and a tight black top. "Get up! Get up!" She said in a sing-song voice, jumping on the bed and shaking Prue awake. She pulled the covers away.
"Hey!" Prue said, sitting up. She looked at her daughter, Danica, with bleary eyes. "Your mother's trying to get some sleep here."
The girl grinned. "I know. I find it unfair that on school days, I have to wake up this early but now, since it's the weekends, I decided to turn the tables. Now up we get!" She pushed Prue out of the bed.
"As much as I love you, I hate you too much right now to love you." Prue said moodily as Danica ushered her towards the bathroom.
"And I love you too." Danica replied. "Plus, you promised me yesterday that you'd take me on a major shopping spree today."
Prue leaned on the door, fully awake now at the mention of shopping. "Did I?"
Danica nodded.
"Well, I was drunk then when I promised." Prue said innocently.
"Mom!" Danica whined. "You promised! And remember the last time we went shopping? I didn't even get to buy anything! That was so unfair!"
Prue threw a hand up. "Ok, ok, I'll take you shopping just don't whine."
Danica grinned and hugged her mother. "You're the best!"
"Do you have to rub it in?" Prue asked.
"Funny." Danica pulled away. "I'll be in my room. Call me when you're ready."
Prue nodded. She watched her daughter bounce out of her room. She shook her head, smiling slightly. "Kids. Can't live with them, can't live without 'em."

"There isn't any worthy guy in San Francisco anymore!" Phoebe shouted out as she came into the kitchen.
"And good morning to you too." Her sister, Piper, said, looking up from her newspaper. Her sister had been ranting all week.
"I mean," Phoebe continued as she made herself a cup of coffee. "College guys are cute but they're total jerks! I'm sick of them! I just want a man! Like you Pipe. You have Leo. Why can't I have a guy like Leo!"
Piper sighed and put the newspaper down on the counter. "Because Leo's mine and we're engaged."
"You know what I mean!"
Piper walked over to her sister and wrapped her arms around her shoulders. "Don't worry Pheebs, your man will come."
Phoebe rolled her eyes. "Yeah, but when?"
"Ah! That, I don't know."
Phoebe backed away. "I guess I'll just have to wait. Anyway, changing topic, where's Grams? I didn't see her in her room." She said, sipping her coffee.
Piper returned to her newspaper. "She left early. She said that she won't be back until late tonight."
Phoebe frowned. "That woman has a lot of secrets."
"Who has a lot of secrets?" Leo asked as he entered the room. "Morning." He added as he pecked his wife on the lips.
"Grams." Phoebe said. "She's always away, well, nearly always."
"Phoebe, she's Grams." Piper stated. "We just gotta let her be."
Leo nodded. "It's not like we don't have secrets ourselves."
Piper turned to him, brows raised. "Secrets? You have a secret I don't know about?"
Leo gulped. It was true; he did have a big secret that he could not tell Piper or Phoebe. Leo was a magical creature, a whitelighter. A guardian angel was an easier explanation but he couldn't tell Piper just yet. Not until he found her other two sisters, not until the Charmed Ones were reconstituted.
It wasn't that he didn't love Piper; he loved her and fought for her with the Elders to continue their relationship and now they were engaged but he also had a job of finding her sisters.
"Leo?"
Leo snapped out of his thoughts. "Uhh…no, I don't have any secrets. I have to go, bye honey." He quickly pecked her on the lips again. "Bye Phoebe." He added as he rushed out.
"He's got a secret." Phoebe said.
"Oh I know he does." Piper replied, crossing her arms.
Outside of the Manor, Leo looked around the empty streets and looked back at the house to make sure no one was watching. Cautiously, he orbed out in a cloud of blue lights.

"South Bay, Paige Matthews speaking." Paige said tiredly into the phone. "No sir, I wouldn't be interested in buying a vacuum cleaner or a washing machine or even a blender which I do not have. Goodbye." She put the phone down. "Idiot." She muttered.
"Paige!" her boss barked. Paige winced. She knew that tone.
She turns around and puts a fake smile on her face. "Yes sir?"
"Why aren't those papers on my desk yet? Weren't they due today?"
"Well…You see…" Paige began but was cut off.
"I want those papers on my desk by tomorrow!" And with that, her boss (A/N: Don't know his name) walked away.
"Great," Paige mumbled. "I'm just about to be kicked out of my place for not paying the rent yet, I haven't finished those papers that I'm supposed to have finished which means I'm going to be working all day!" She put her head down. "Could this get any worse?"
The phone suddenly rang. Paige looked up and without hesitation, grabbed it. "I told you! I don't want a vacuum cleaner! Take a hint!" She said haughtily.
"Ms. Matthews?" Said a girl on the other line.
Paige groaned. "Danica, I'm sorry. I thought you were one of those sales people. I'm sorry."
"Bad day?" Danica asked sympathetically.
"Tell me about it." Paige complained. "So, what are you doing calling me?"
Danica hesitated. "Well Ms. Matthews, I just wanted someone to talk to really."
"Dani, you can call me Paige. Haven't I told you that before? And how about your mom? Can't you talk to her." Paige suddenly realized that her last statement sounded rude and hurriedly added to it. "I mean, you two are closer than you and me."
Paige and Danica had met three weeks ago and they had been talking to each other ever since. When Danica had introduced Prue to her, they got along fairly well even though Prue was seven years older than Paige.
"She's in the shower plus, I live and talk to her everyday." Danica said casually. "If I keep talking to her, we'll have nothing to talk about."
Paige's boss poked his head out of his office. "Paige! Get back to work!"
Paige sighed. "I'm sorry Danica but I have to go, my boss is gonna have a fit."
"Ok, well, sorry to disturb you. Bye."
"Bye." Paige put the phone down and reluctantly returned to work.
---------
A/N: Ok, so the first chapter. Really boring. I know and I'm not good with introductions but bare with me people!
As for Danica, I just thought it would be nice to have a teen around them.
And yes, if Danica's 15 and Prue's 29, Prue had her at 14 which isn't totally impossible.
Review guys!
