Author’s notes: Okay I don’t know if Chris ever started staying at the manor or not, and if there was a bedroom for him or not. But I’m gonna assume for this story that there was.

***********


Had been two days and three nights since the spider demoness attacked. Two days and three nights since Leo came to know he had… or was going to have another son and that son was ry vry very angry Chris. Didn’t do much for his confidence as a father to know his son hated him so much. Chris for his part continued to ignore Leo and pretty much everyone except baby Wyatt. Leo played the conversation they’d had on top of the Golden gate bridge in his head over and over.

//You were never there for me. You were there for everybody else… Mom, Wyatt, half the world. But you were never there for me.//

//Maybe you didn’t come back just to save Wyatt. Maybe you came back to save us too.//

//I doubt it.//

Leo tried during dinner again. Piper tried to mediate but to no avail. Their second son refused to yield his stubborn silence. His resentment.
His pain.
Chris shrugged into his grey duster soon after.
“I have to go.”
“Go where? Shouldn’t you head to bed, its almost eleven.”
Dinner almost always got delayed in the Halliwell household. Chris scowled in irritation.

“Please mom, I’m a big boy you know. And you never cared what time I came in or went out six months ago.”
Piper bit her lip. She had always felt a bit concerned about him even before they knew Chris was her own son, but at the time she thought it wasn’t her place to butt in. At twenty one he was supposed to be a grown-up technically. Unfortunately, when it comes to feeling protective and worrying about one’s own children, the legal age for adulthood sorta never comes. Right now, she simply resorted to another of her short and to-the-point replies.

“Now is not same as before and its also beside the point. You’re *not* going out.”
“What? I don’t believe this!”
“Try.”
And Piper turned away. Chris looked angry and almost on the verge of retorting back rudely again when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He sensed his father standing behind him.
“Chris.”

Leo who’d been listening quietly knew Piper needed no help. But he felt inclined to remind Chris that she was his mother before he ended up hurting her with his disrespect.
“Do as your mother says.”
Something snapped inside Chris. He turned his fury towards Leo.
“I don’t believe its any of your *heavenly* business Leo. Now if you’ll excuse me… I got a dragon to track.”

Phoebe had left to check on Wyatt earlier and Paige was cleaning up in the kitchen so the sisters missed the confrontation. Piper and Leo stood stunned and not sure how to handle what looked and sounded like a full-blown teenage rebellion. They hadn’t expected to face it so soon and were obviously not prepared.

“Chris you know its too dangerous for you to go alone. That demon can sense the magic in you from a mile away, not to mention he now knows you by name!”
“I’m going to be careful *obviously*!”
“Damnit Chris you listen to me!”
Piper was agitated now, and Chris realized he’d probably drawn his last straw.
“We plan this first and we do this together and we do this tomorrow! Not today and definitely not alone! Do I make myself clear?”
Chris smirked.
“Your angry-mommy routine really needs a lot of practice mom.”
Piper opened her mouth to say... something… but started laughing instead. Chris chuckled and so did Leo, they sounded exactly the same.

Piper shook her head.
“I’ll work on it. For now this will just have to do. Now promise me you will not go after that demon tonight.”
Chris pouted and looked like he was about to argue. Piper threw him one of her patented looks.
“Christopher…”
He huffed. “oh alright. I promise.”
But he started orbing out anyway.

“Hey where you going?”
He posed dramatically with his hands spread eagled.
“I need some fresh air that’s all!”
“But…”
Leo stopped his wife. They needed to show Chris that they trusted him, and supported him. Besides he was sure Chris would keep his promise and was generally a smart and careful boy. He wasn’t as worried as Piper was.
“Let him go Piper.”
Chris heard and his eyes darkened, but he didn’t react. And then he was gone.

Piper sighed, not hiding the fact that she was a bit annoyed.
“I know you want to resolve things with him Leo but…”
“He’ll be fine! Don’t worry…”
Piper didn’t respond. So Leo just pulled her into a tight hug. They may not be married anymore, but there was still a lot of love and understanding between the two. And then there were the two kids. He gently comforted her.
“Everything will be just fine.”
