2 July 2003 - Changing

Faith, Mary-Kate, Kate and Piper

Faith stood behind the bar of P3, dancing as she poured drinks. She and Piper danced together for a second, then resumed to serving when they both spotted Mary-Kate and Kate walking through the door.

"New friend?" Faith asked, pouring a drink.

"Yeah, she appeared today. Mary-Kate seems to get along with her, so, why not let her stay?" Piper flipped the cap off a bottle and tossed it to someone.

Mary-Kate approached the bar with Kate. Kate grinned at Faith.

"Hi, Faith, Piper, this is Kate." Mary-Kate looked around. "I'm gonna dance."

Kate waved her off. "I'll be there soon." Kate looked into Faith's eyes and explored her mind. Hmm... a locked up section. Ah, repressed memories, always fun. She cracked a little hole in the barrier and slowly let Faith's memories trickle back into her mind. By the end of this month, old Faith would be back.

"Hey, Kate." Faith tossed a bottle and flipped it upside down, pouring a drink into a glass.

Kate winked. "Hi. I'm gonna join MK." She danced off to find her as Piper leaned in towards Faith.

"A few hours together, and Mary-Kate has made quite a change. I caught them getting high this afternoon, and the wardrobe department seems to look a little different as well."

Faith grinned. "Ah, kids will be kids." She rubbed her head slightly, she was beginning to get a little headache.

"I don't know... I'll keep an eye on her and oh!" Piper froze the room as she spotted Kate started to make a fireball in her hand. She stalked over and put it out with a glass of water, then ran back behind the bar and unfroze the room. Kate looked down at her hand in confusion, and then started to dance again.

Faith giggled. "Naughty, using powers in public."

Piper groaned. "Let's not even go there."

"You know, you should make this bar like in 'Coyote Ugly'. I'll dance on the bar."

"You wouldn't."

"You know me."

"Go on, I dare you."

Faith grinned as she jumped up on the bar. She tossed her tea towel apron to Piper and started to dance along the bar, grinning as some smart alec slipped money into her pants. She took it out and tossed it to Piper. Piper laughed and put it into the till.

Faith grinned and stuck her tongue out then jumped out onto the dancefloor. She was dancing by herself before she spotted a couple dancing and went and inserted herself between them. She grabbed the guys arms and wrapped them around her waist, ignoring the girl who was getting frustrated.

"Do something!" The girl called to her boyfriend.

Faith rolled her eyes. "Yeah, do something, like this!" She elbowed the girl in the face and Piper quickly froze the room.

"Are you insane?"

Faith smiled innocently. "Nope."

"Take the rest of the night off." Piper shook her head and unfroze the room.

The girl's boyfriend slapped Faith and she kicked him in the stomach, dancing towards the door. The girl came at her, and she picked her up and threw her against the wall. Piper shook her head in confusion as Faith finally left.

Faith laughed as she walked home. Something about that incident at the club felt so right. She walked in the front door and headed for the shower. She showered, dried herself and hopped into bed, not bothering to put anything on. If Zac was home, she didn't realise, she just closed her eyes and went to sleep.
