Future vs Past

26

A/N:
I'm really sorry.

I had a super massive and BIG writer's block that I never thought I would never get out of it. I'm not ready to like stop writing this book nor leave it discontinued because I have so much planned for this.

I know I'm a slow author or simply I get distracted so easily which leads my mind to create new stories for new books and when that happens, the ones I worked with before gets forgotten until my mind snaps back into actions and remembers them. It's annoying for me and I'm sure it is annoying as well for you as readers. I will try to finish some before I stack myself with more new ones but I don't promise anything.

I do want to keep writing this one and to make it up to you got all the time you've been waiting for an update, this chapter turned out to be a more of 4K words which is so far the longest chapter I've ever written within this book.

I hope you enjoy and forgive me for taking really so long.

I knew we had screwed up. I should know better, I mean, I'm from the future. I'm supposed to help the sisters from making dumb decisions.

Well, technically I was here to stop Wyatt from turning evil.

But uh, little details.

We were still at the Attic.

Paige was frantically looking through the Book of Shadows as Piper laid down on a couch. She had gotten hurt and I felt guilty about it.

Why is it that I couldn't vanquish this demon?

Phoebe walked in, holding an ice pack and I looked away. Phoebe was scary when she was disappointed and I didn't want to face her disappointment directed at me. At least, this time if she did, she wouldn't be my mom. She'd be a disappointed friend.

I didn't know what was worse.

Every day that Phoebe kept going like a stranger to me and not my mom hurt even deeper. I missed her motherly hugs though they annoyed me to death. Had I known she wouldn't be there to give me those hugs but present and oblivious to our relationship, I would have never told mom how annoying she was. That saying was true. You never know what you have until you lose it.

Phoebe raising her voice to the ceiling snapped me from my thoughts "This would all be so much easier if someone that could heal you was actually listening!"

Piper sat up. "It's no big deal, I've had worse"

Phoebe sat beside Piper, placing the ice pack on Piper's shoulder. "Still, those two need a talking to I'll tell you"

Paige groaned, looking up from the book.

I walked closer to her. Now, I was definitely invested with this case after losing Larry, which was totally my fault for not waiting Paige to summon the demon.

"I don't understand" Paige told us. "Faustian deals have been around for more than a century but there is nothing in here on how to break them. How is that possible?"

"Maybe because they can't be broken" Piper told her.

I shook my head slightly, frowning. "It can't be, there's gotta be a way"

Paige nodded, pointing at me, thankful I was on her side. I've always been on your side, Auntie Paige. "I am not giving up on Larry now"
