Re: Action

[Personally, Prue is grateful that Phoebe doesn't come from really early, because explaining that she can say "I love you" now isn't really on her list of things to do. But that's furthest from her mind on the cab ride over- what she is thinking about is plans, logistics, apartment size and rent rates. She hasn't asked Chris to move in with her yet, but she had planned to, and this doesn't change that. But the Charmed Ones can't live apart- and Prue doesn't want to live away from her sister.

They have a month to find a place they can all afford, with room for Piper (and Leo) if they show. It's enough. It has to be. She scribbles and notes and marks things down in the notepad she always carries with her, spending the last 15 minutes of the ride mapping out how much overtime she'll have to work to make enough money. And to account for Phoebe- who she will not let stay jobless, not until they have the cash.

A pothole startles her out of her concentration, and she notices they're close. The Towers are looming on the left, with the baseball field stretching out behind some buildings down to the right. Prue puts everything away and neurotically smooths her skirt over and over again until it's time to pay and get out.

She watches the cab drive away with her back turned to the field. A deep breath- okay.

Her eyes widen when she first sees Phoebe, and she actually manages to walk a whole ten feet before breaking into a jog and yanking Phoebe into a crushing hug as soon as she can.]


Phoebe. I can't believe you're here.
