"Did you make the potion correctly?"

I paused in my movements, frowning. "What?" I turned to Chris hearing his accusing tone. "I did it exactly like Jack told me to"

"Well, it's not working on me" Chris crossed his arms, "Phoebe just read me downstairs"

I shifted awkwardly, scratching the back of my neck and looking away "Oh, so that's what he meant..."

"Breana" Chris called out in warning.

I threw my hands up, "I swear I didn't know! Jack told me it didn't work on whitelighters. I thought he was joking. It did work on me, though"

"Of course it would" Chris sighed. "You were his crush"

I hid my blush, exhaling slowly "So, are you gonna then find those ingredients to make it the conventional way?"

Chris nodded, "Yeah. I have a few, in case this would have happened" he gave me a look, "Your little boyfriend didn't like me nor the whitelighters around you that much. I figured he'd do something like this"

"I'm sorry" I said sheepishly.

Chris waved a hand, "Don't worry. Not your fault. I'll be back though" He said before orbing away.

I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, looking back at the book of Shadows

~8~

I walked down the stairs, hearing the doorbell.

"I'll get it" I shouted so the sisters could hear, reaching the door and opening it. There was a man behind it, "Hello"

I tightened my grip on the door sensing some kind of lust but directed at someone behind me. I turned around to see Piper walking closer.

"Hey" The man smiled at Piper.

I backed away from the door, standing next to Phoebe "He likes her" I murmured at her

Phoebe looked at me with a look of realization, slowly starting to grin

"Hi" Piper smiled

Wow, you look great" The man complimented her, "I-I'm not surprised, that's just that you normally.."

"Oh, yeah, no bottle, no binky" Piper chuckled

"No spit up" He added with a chuckle

Piper laughed slightly "Yeah"

Phoebe looked like she wanted to interviene. I grabbed her arms, trying to push her back but she just swatted my hands down, "Psst" she whispered at Piper

"So you ready? Wanna go?" He smiled at Piper

"Phoebe" I gritted through my teeth, "Knock it off"

"He likes you" Phoebe continued whispering at her sister. "We can tell"

"And you had to involve me" I dropped my arms, rolling my head and eyes upwards

Piper smiled at him, "One second" she turned to us, smile fading as she narrowed her eyes at Phoebe "Leave Paige alone, I mean it"

"I will" Phoebe whispered. A tingle in my head told me she was lying, giving her a look "I will"

Piper grabbed her bag, walking outside. "Okay"

"Have fun, Piper" I waved at them

"Have fun, I will leave Paige alone" Phoebe waved, closing the door. "I can't"

"Leave her for what?" I asked curiously. Since the day I used my ring for hate, I've been isolating myself from everyone, even missing out what they were up to. I hadn't felt this bad emotionally since I lost my sister that day.

"She got another job involving magic and she got attacked" Phoebe told me, "I have to help her. Chris!"

Chris orbed in, his shirt had dust on it. My eyes widened, "Yeah?"

"Hey, I need you to watch Wyatt for me" Phoebe told him

Chris frowned "What? No, no way"

Phoebe tilted her head aside, "What's wrong? Why you worried?"

Chris gave an I told you so look before looking at Phoebe "What's wrong?" He repeated skeptically "What's wrong is I don't do babies. One and under crowd, not my thing. Leo, however." At that same moment, Leo orbed in. "Great with kids, especially his own" He looked at him, annoyed "You're not following me are you?"

I pursed my lips. Oh, this was not good.

"Why?" Leo asked "Should I be?"

"Oh, there's a lot of love in this room" Phoebe said sarcastically, "Okay, so, um, there's a bottle in the fridge if Wyatt wakes up and the diaper rash cream, only if he needs it, okay? We've gotta keep that butt moist" she said walking toward the kitchen in a rush

Chris turned to Leo "Did you get that?" Before orbing away

Leo looked at me suspiciously before running after Phoebe.

I stayed on the living room, closing my eyes. This won't end well.

~8~

So like apparently Leo couldn't take care of his own son because he wanted to find proof about Chris being evil and was following him around, I offered to take care of Wyatt

I was at the same room as my now little cousin, sitting on the floor just outside his playpen, watching his force field around him, protecting himself from me

"If you knew.... In the future I'm the one with the force field up and you're the one outside in this position" I said in a low voice, head lowered down, still feeling the aftermath of the wrong use of my ring.

Wyatt looked up at the tone of my voice, curiously crawling closer to one of the playpen walls. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see the force field fading away but I didn't move.

Suddenly, a box of tissues orbed in my hands. I gasped startled, looking up at the toddler who was watching me.

"You did this?" I raised the tissue box in surprise. And that's when I felt a cold rush in my cheeks. I touched one and it was wet. I froze, touching my eyes to realize that I was indeed crying. I looked back at Wyatt who had returned back to his toys but this time there was no shield around him.

I scattered up clumsily to my feet, grabbing a tissue and cleaning my eyes before walking closer to Wyatt who looked up when he saw my shadow covering him. I was expecting him to put up his shield but that never came. I leaned down, slowly picking him up and holding him close in my arms

"Wait. So you actually trust me now?" I asked looking down at him.

Wyatt only looked up before orbing us away.

~8~

We ended up orbing in an alley just outside a flower shop

"Wyatt!" I gasped looking around making sure no one saw us having orbed here. Luckily, the alley and street were empty "Why did you brought me here? Or better yet, how did you know to arrive this place?" I frowned at him, not knowing how his little mind worked. Wyatt only smiled, grabbing my the tips of my wavy hair between his little chubby fingers. "Right, you're just a baby. You can't actually tell me"

I couldn't beam away without putting us at risk on my state so I began walking away of the alley, hugging Wyatt closely to my chest, not wanting any danger come to him on my watch

I didn't know what was his goal of doing this but it actually made the negative thoughts I've been having melt away, being focused on Wyatt's safety

~8~

Once I arrived at the manor, Wyatt was already asleep, his head resting on my shoulder while he had a fist of my green shirt on his hand.

When I got close to the house, I grimaced hearing some loud argument from Paige and Phoebe

"Those two always loved to argue" I mumbled to myself, entering the house and walking closer, "Hey, guys. Would you mind lower your voice down? I could finally get Wyatt to go to sleep after he orbed us away and I had to talk around ten blocks"

That made Piper and Leo look at me wide eyed, seeing me walk from the front door, giving them a look

"Orb you away?" Leo asked alarmed 

I gave them a look, "Yeah, we were on Piper's room and suddenly he orbed the two of us away after I picked him from his playpen to give him something to eat" that was a lie as they didn't need to know why I picked him up. Chris gave me a look, frowning. "Anyway, let me get your son upstairs to put him on his bed before he wakes up and orbs me again"

They stayed quiet as I walked past them.

So.... did they noticed my change?

~8~

Once I placed Wyatt on his playpen, I walked out of the room holding my necklace pendant and watching it form again in the ring.

I watched it for a few seconds, seeing it glow briefly. It made me sigh, my Cupid powers were slowly restoring back to normal. I made the ring back to a pendant, shoving it under my shirt.

I took a deep breath before walking down the stairs and stopping at the doorway, leaning against it as I heard them talking about a feud of two families.

I narrowed my eyes. I never liked it when two families fought. It made me remember mom fighting every time she could with Jack's mom.

Long story short, Mom never approved my friendship with Jack. Only because her and Jack's mom never got along. But with that, Jack's and I's relationship actually grew, becoming best friends and maybe Chris was right... I did develop feelings for him because it was forbidden, also I liked being around him.

So that's why I was the first one to say I'd help, gaining a few surprised looks for me involving myself into their business.

The only one who gave me a grin was Phoebe making me even feel better

~8~

While Paige went to get the Callaway's and the Montana's, I was at the attic setting up the place for a seance.

Piper had actually found out the Montana's hadn't been attacking the Callaway's with energy balls nor the other way around, turning out to be a ghost.

Our guess was it was Olivia Callaway's spirit, Richard Montana's fiancé (who Paige had a thing for, according to Phoebe.... I guess I'll see it for myself when they arrive) and we were going to prove it to the families.

I had five candles set up around a table, putting up pillows so they could sit down.

The Montana's, Callaway's, the sisters and Leo walked inside. I straightened up, a twitch on my lips when I sensed the attraction from the youngest Montana to Paige and viceversa.

Phoebe walked closer to me, passing an arm around my shoulders, seeing my small smile "You see what I see, don't you?" She whispered with a smile

I could feel my powers growing with the closeness Phoebe had with me. Even if she didn't know it, her aura was strengthening mine for having the same blood. She didn't know it and she was helping me feel better.

"I do" I whispered back, giving her a slightly wide smile

Phoebe's smile grew "I missed that smile. I'm glad you seem better"

Me too, Mom. Me too

~8~

A/N:

Isn't Wyatt a small cute bean? XD

Helping his cousin (even if he doesn't know she is) to feel better.

Baby Wyatt is the best :)

Let's hope you continue being this way even in the future, Wy :)
