Charlie
She headed up to her room and flopped down at the big chair by her desk. She turned on her music and started to tap her foot to the beat. She would have started to dance, but she knew the sound would just catch her mother's attention. In all truth, she was supposed to be washing up for bed, but she fought bedtimes with a passion.
"No magic school. That is totally unfair!"

Scully
::Scully heard her sister griping about no magic school, and orbed over to her sister's room.::
"Hey." she said, sitting on the floor. "You know Dad's probably gonna try to talk Mom outta that, right?"

Charlie
"Doesn't matter. Mom won't budge on it. She'll be all 'she's had a chance and now we do it my way' crap. It's not fair. It was just potions. And one math test. Big deal."
She rolled her eyes and twisted her chair to face her sister.

Scully
"Hmm. You know, you've got a point. But you know what? You...try helping out for a few days around the house. Do a few extra things here and there that Mom usually has to do. Or...get a paper route. Show her you can have a job and keep up with your school work. How long did she ground you for, anyway?"
::She leaned forward, putting her elbows on her knees, and resting her chin in her right hand.::

Leo
After watching his daughters leave the kitchen he took Piper's plate.
"You know, no magic school seems a little harsh."
He placed their plates in the sink turning looking at his wife.
"I mean, yes she messed up in school, but magic is a little more important don't ya think?"
He sighed sitting back down eyeing Piper.
Piper
She shook her head eyeing Leo back.
"Uh, no I don't. I mean she has responsibilities other than magic, Leo."
She sighed a bit.
"I mean, you always do this. Once I punish the girls and take away anything magic you have to defend them."
Placing her cup in the sink alongside her plate she grabbed a rag and began to wipe the counters.
"They have to learn to live as witches and as mortals. Just as me and my sisters did. Only difference, they'll have someone to guide them."
She threw the rag in the sink and headed up to the bedroom. Slammed the door and headed into the bathroom.

Charlie
"Until she sees a raise in my grades at normal school. It's lame."
She winced, hearing the door slam down the hall.
"Think I caused that?"
Her sister nodded and Charlie got up, tightening her bandana and straightening it.
"Better go see if I can make it right." She walked out of the room and headed for her parent's room. She knocked softly on the door, "Mommy?"

Scully
::She jumped and winced as Piper slammed the door. She opened her mouth to say something to Charlie, but couldn't get it out before she left. She orbed behind her sister.::
"Charlie, I--" Piper opened the door. "Hi Mom."

Piper
Not saying a word she left the door open and went back in the bathroom.
"What do you two want?"
She asked while wiping her face and then entered the room in her pajamas.
"What can I help you with?"
She sat on her bed looking at each girl.

Scully
"Oh, me?" she pointed to herself. "I just had something really important to tell Charlie and..." she stalled. Lying wasn't Scully's gig, and she knew it. "...and yeah." she nodded, sighing.

Piper
Squinting her eyes she nodded.
"Yea see, that always never works on me? What's up?"
She placed her hair back in a ponytail eyeing the girls.
"Come on, either you tell me now, or I go and call your aunt Phoebe and she can tell me."
Piper joked but was kinda serious.
"You know she will...soooo..."

Charlie
She placed on her most innocent face, looking hard like she was concentrating and very serious.
"Are you and Daddy fighting because of me?"

Scully
"See, now I came to stop her from asking that." she pointed to her sister. "But in that case, I think I'll take a rain check on this convo."
::She turned around, and took a step towards the door.::

Leo
He came towards the door and stopped her.
"No. England take a seat."
Turning her around she took a seat as he nodded to Charlie and entered the bathroom.
Piper
Grabbing the bottom of Charlie's chin she smiled at her.
"No, sweetie. We aren't fighting because of you. We are arguing because your daddy doesn't understand that being in this world you have to know other things besides magic."
Leo poked his head out with a toothbrush in his mouth as he squinted his eyes at Piper and entered back in.

Scully
::She sighed, her shoulders dropping as she took a seat on the bed, and kept quiet about things, like she always did when she had the feeling she and her sister were gonna get the "We think in your best interests" speech.::

Leo
He came out in his pj's looking at England.
"So Eng, anything you wanna say."
He took a not too close seat next to Piper.
"Anything at all?"
