AN: Okay! Today, June 23 is my birthday, so if you own Charmed and you don't want it anymore I will more than willing take it as a birthday present! Okay with that said, this is a PiperLeo fic but it has a lot of Paige in it too cause Paige is awesome too. Like no Prue and not much Phoebe at all. The girls are not sisters, but friends.

Piper stared up at the ceiling from her bed. It had been six months since her grandmother had died and she had moved in with her best friend Phoebe. She knew though that she would have to move out soon, she didn't know if she wanted to live in the Manor alone now but she didn't really have a choice. Cole had proposed to Phoebe last night, Piper knew they were going to move in here and she knew she couldn't stay.

Phoebe's so lucky to have found Cole, why can't I have that? Piper wondered as she rolled over. She figured she had better tell Phoebe sooner or later so she got up, got ready, and went downstairs to make breakfast. About thirty minutes later Phoebe walked in the kitchen with a big grin plastered across her face. "I'm getting married!" she said happily.

"I know and I'm just as happy for you this morning as I was when you woke me up last night and told me." Piper joked. Phoebe's smile widened, "Sorry, I'm just so happy!" she said excitedly. "I know Phoebe, and I need to tell you something." Pipers said figuring it was a now or never issue. "Okay, what?" Phoebe asked practically jumping up and done.

"I wanna move out." Piper said in a rush. Piper had done the impossible, she made Phoebe frown. "What? No!" she said sadly. "Oh come on Phoebe, I can move back in the Manor and you can have your privacy here." Piper said trying to convince her. "But are you really ready Piper?" Phoebe asked. "Phoebe it's been six months, I'll be okay." Piper laughed.

There was a silence for a few minutes until Phoebe asked quietly, "Are you sure?" "Yes Phoebe, I am." Piper said, also quietly. "Aw! I'm gonna miss you Piper! I can't believe you're sticking me with a boy!" Phoebe said acting like an 8-year-old. "I'm sorry Phoebe, I'm gonna miss you too." Piper said as they hugged each other.

"Piper, they forgot the freaking pretzels, again!" Paige yelled as she looked through the supply box. Paige was Piper's waitress for her club, P3. P3 used to be a partnership between her and her other best friend Prue but after Prue and her husband died in a car accident; Piper had been left with full rights to the club. P3 stood for the childhood best friends: Prue, Piper, and Phoebe.

"Damn it, why do they always forget the pretzels, do you know how many times I've called that in?" Piper asked angrily as she came out of her office. "The customers don't know that we even serve them anymore so I vote we just quit ordering them..." Paige suggested, getting out the swizzle sticks. "I'm with you there, so Paige, how's it going with your apartment?" Piper asked.

Paige had been complaining over the past few days that her apartment rent was over the edge and Piper had had an idea that morning. "Not well, I'm gonna have to move out, no offense Piper but this job doesn't pay enough for me to have a high maintenance apartment and go to school." Paige said warily. She was going to a community college trying to become a social worker and was working mornings and nights at P3 to pay for it.

"Well Paige, ya know I'm moving back in the Manor because Phoebe is getting married to Cole and it's a really big house, you could come and live there if you want?" Piper suggested. Truth was she that no matter how much she tried to convince herself, she knew she didn't wanna be alone in that house. Paige stopped dead, "Are you serious?" she asked surprised.

"Of course Paige, please, I don't wanna live in that big house alone..." Piper said smiling. "Oh my gosh, thank you so much!" Paige said sounding shocked. "Yeah, there are three rooms though so I was thinking we could rent the last room out..." Piper said as she began counting the boxes. "I vote we rent it to a cute guy..." Paige said grinning. Piper laughed and rolled her eyes, "Paige, count." She said smiling.

A month later Piper was moved out of Phoebe's, Paige was moved out of her apartment, and they were both in the Manor. It didn't take very long to get settled for either of them. They were always hanging out, whenever one had a date the other stayed up to hear details, they basically acted like sisters.

"Yeah Dan's really sweet." Piper said as she and Paige sat on the couch. "Yeah well that's your third date, don't get to serious or you might get married and I'll be out of a home..." Paige joked. "I've known him for a little over a month, I don't think you have anything to worry about..." Piper said smiling. "Never know... He could pop the question tomorrow..." Paige said with a sneaky smile. "And I would say no." Piper said raising her eyebrow. "Yeah, well I need to get to bed, so night." Paige said yawning. "Night." Piper said as Paige got up.

"Oh wait!" Piper said suddenly remembering. "What?" Paige asked. "I'm gonna put that ad for a third room mate in the paper tomorrow so did you read it over?" Piper asked. "The thing about seeking third room mate for large Victorian house?" Paige asked grinning. "Paige, you actually read it!" Piper said pretending to be amazed. "Hahaha..." Paige said rolling her eyes. "Yes, okay, be here tomorrow on time! Night!" Piper yelled as Paige walked upstairs. "Night!" Paige yelled back.

"Well I was in love with this one guy but he totally didn't love me back so I so had to care of him..." Piper and Paige had been through along day of interviewing every psycho who needed a place to stay. This was their newest candidate.

"Okay... Ya know what, we'll get back to you..." Paige said as she ushered the girl out the front door. "I have to say I like her best..." Piper said as she buried her head in the couch. "Okay, one last person, Leo Wyatt, what do you think is wrong with him?" Paige asked smiling. "I don't even wanna guess but there has to be something, I mean he's trying to get into this house..." Piper said as she lay back.

There was then a knock on the door. "That would be Wyatt and that would be your turn to open the door..." Paige said as she sat on the chair. Piper moaned as she got up and went to answer the door. She could swear that her mouth was open when she saw not some crazy jealous serial killer but a very cute sandy blonde haired guy. "Is this the Halliwell Manor?" Leo asked as he saw she wasn't gonna say anything.

"Yeah... Um come in..." Piper said as she led him into the room where Paige was laying on the couch halfway asleep. "Paige!" Piper practically yelled. Paige jumped up really fast and said something about 'I didn't do it.' "Nice of you to wake up to greet the next candidate Paige..." Piper whispered glancing over to Leo. Paige looked as shocked as Piper did. "Hello... Leo..." she said smiling.

The interview went wonderful! Leo was perfect, they were afraid he was too good to be true. He moved in to the house the next week. "Are you sure he's completely sane, I mean we interviewed twelve people and... well you know they always say it's always the quiet ones..." Paige whispered to Piper at breakfast.

Leo hadn't come down yet so they were spending the time talking about how perfectly scary he was. "Well he's been nothing but sweet, caring, kind..." Piper said as she cut open a grapefruit. "Okay, I'm just paranoid..." Paige agreed as Leo walked downstairs.

"Morning ladies," Leo said as he walked downstairs. "Hey Leo, help yourself to breakfast." Piper said motioning around the kitchen. "Thanks." He said as he poured himself some coffee. "Sleep well?" Paige asked. "Yeah, great, you guys?" he asked. "Fine." They both said smiling. "Paige, we gotta get to the club..." Piper said looking at her watch.

"Leo, why don't you swing by the club tonight? You know P3?" Piper asked him. "Yeah sure, I will if I get out of the hospital early enough." Leo worked at the San Francisco Memorial. "That's great, see ya then." Paige said as she and Piper got up and left.
