"Let's talk." Paige said sitting on Pipers bed.
"What about?" Piper said.
"What's on your mind? You look like you need to vent." Paige said.
"Yeah I guess I do." Piper said with a sigh.
Paige took a bite of her cookie and waited for Piper to begin.
"Leo and I are learning to work as a team again. After spending so much time apart it's kind of hard to imagine us being together again." Piper said.
"Your enjoying being by yourself right now. There's nothing wrong with that." Paige said.
"It's not even that I like being by myself. I just don't think I want to get back together with Leo anymore." Piper said.
"I think what you need is a date. You need a breath of fresh air. Maybe that's what you need to make your mind up." Paige said.
"That's what Prue said in the kitchen a few days ago." Piper said.
"Well Prue is right." Paige said.
"Yeah. I don't think I'm ready to just jump back into dating yet." Piper said.
"That's understandable. But for right now I'll be here whenever you need me." Paige said.
"Don't you mean your apartment?" Piper asked.
"No. Prue and Andy can have the apartment. Phoebe can move in with Jason and I'll move in here." Paige said.
"Paige you don't have to do that." Piper said.
"I know. I want to though. It's not fun sharing an apartment with a couple. Plus right now we are both single." Paige said.
Piper raised an eyebrow.
"You sure your single? What would Roman think?" Piper asked smiling.
"He wants to get back together. But his mother is trying to kill me left and right." Paige said shrugging.
"Do you trust him?" Piper asked.
"Yeah I do. I got to see a different side to him that you guys didn't. Roman is a good guy that was just born evil. His dad made a deal to become human and left him and Cynthia behind." Paige said.
"Well that explains why he's still protective of her." Piper said.
"Yeah. Cynthia might be evil but she's a damn good mom. It's the source that's taken her over." Paige said.
"So we will have to figure out how to make them both human." Piper said.
"I know." Paige said putting her head on Pipers shoulder.
"I missed this. Just sitting and talking. I missed having you to lean on." Piper said.
"I know. I did too. It's hard to believe awhile ago we couldn't stand each other." Paige said.
"We've come a long way and I'm proud." Piper said wrapping her arm around her.
Melinda started crying.
"Well moments over." Paige said smiling.
Both of them went upstairs.
"You sure you want to move in here? This is going to be the new normal." Piper said.
"Positive." Paige laughed.

At an Italian restaurant across town.
"So your moving in?" Jason asks with excitement.
"Yep." Phoebe said smiling.
"That's amazing." Jason said.
"What changed your mind?" Jason asked
"Paige came home. Pipers not alone anymore now." Phoebe said.
Jason nodded.

Back at the apartment.
"Thank you for bringing my sister home today." Prue said.
"Always." Andy said hugging her.
"I love you." Prue said.
"I love you too." Andy said holding her tighter.
He looked at the clock.
Prue noticed.
"What? Do you have somewhere to go?" She asked.
"No not at all. I'm just getting tired." Andy said.
"You never go to bed this early." Prue said suspiciously.
"We'll it's been a long day." Andy said.
"It's only eight." Prue said.
"Fine. I will watch one more movie with you and then we will go to bed." Andy said.
"Great!" Prue said smiling.

The next morning
Prue and Andy orbed into the manor to see Paige and Piper cuddled in Pipers room.
"I don't want to wake them up. Let's just check the book to see what we can find." Prue said.
Both went up the stairs.
"Didn't Paige already check the book?" Andy asked.
"You really think she did much checking with Roman up here?" Prue said smirking.
"No." Andy replied flipping through pages.
"I mean I still don't see anything that would help." Prue said looking over his shoulder.
"We might just have to stick with the transformation spell and just add what we need. We can make some potions that kill their demon half's." Andy said.
"But Romans full demon. Wouldn't it kill him?"Prue asked.
"I don't think so. Paige told me awhile ago that Cynthia was a witch and gave everything up for Romans dad. A part of her must be human. The same way you guys are half mortal." Andy said.
"Are you sure?" Prue asked.
"Positive." Andy said looking at the clock again.
"Why do you keep doing that?" Prue asked.
The conversation was cut short.
Paige and Piper walked into the attic.
"Hey guys. I'm surprised your awake already." Prue said.
"It's hard to sleep when someone is in the attic pacing." Piper said.
"Sorry." Prue and Andy said at the same time.
"We figured out how we are going to turn everyone human." Prue said.
"What about Cole?" Paige asked.
"We will just have to vanquish him again." Prue said.
Andy looked at the clock again.
"Paige? Can I talk to you downstairs?" Andy asked.
"Yeah." She said walking downstairs.
Andy turned to look at Prue who just cut her eyes at him. He made his way downstairs too.

In the kitchen
"You really think that's a good idea?" Paige asked.
"I mean how bad can it be?" Andy asked.
"Very bad." Paige said laughing.
"Prue can't find out. She'll kill us both." Andy said.
"I won't tell her. It's our little secret." Paige said.
"I need you to get them out of the house so that we are alone." Andy said.
"Okay." Paige said walking back out.

In the attic
"What was that about?" Prue asked.
"Just something the elders said." Paige said
"Oh okay." Prue said locking eyes with Piper who seemed uncertain.
"I'm really in the mood for an iced coffee." Paige said.
"Wanna go get one?" Prue said.
"I would but I have to call Roman here so I can talk to him." Paige said
"I'll go with you." Piper said.
"Good. Well I'll watch Melinda for you." Paige said.
Piper and Prue gave her another strange look.
"I'll go tell Andy." Prue said.
"The elders called him. He's up there." Paige said quickly.
"Right....Okay well good luck with Roman." Prue said as her and Piper left the attic.
"Do you think they are possessed?" Piper asked.
"Who knows." Prue said walking out of the front door.

Back up in the attic
"It's clear." Paige said.
Andy orbed in.
"Hear these words, hear my cry,
Spirit from the other side,
Come to me, I summon thee,
Cross now the great divide." Paige said.
Both Penny and Patty appeared.
"Paige?" "Andy?" Grams said.
"We need to talk." Andy said.
