"Wow, aunt Grace, I can't belive I'm finally going to see Paris! I just
think it's all a dream, a beautiful dream; I'm afraid of waking up!" said
Charity smiling at her aunt, who was sitting in an armchair in the living
room. Charity's eyes were sparkling with happiness. She couldn't stay
still; she just kept moving around in the room.
"I'm so happy for you, Charity! You know I am; because you've been like a daughter for me, ever since you've arrived here in Harmony." Said Grace while holding Charity's hand.
"I can't belive that in only one week I'm going to get on that airplane! I'll count the minutes, - no, the seconds left till then!" said Charity, feeling that she was going to explode with happiness...
"That is the nicest thing Miguel has ever done for you! He loves you, Charity. From the first day I saw you together I knew that you were made one for another." Said Grace looking into Charity's eyes. She knew that Miguel was the one who could make her sweet Charity happy forever!
"Yes, aunt Grace! It's such a beautiful gesture..." said Charity "This most be the best birthday gift that I've ever had. Miguel is so sweet!" she continued.
"I bet it is! You two are going to spend a whole week in Paris, the city of lights! Just the two of you! That is going to be so romantic..." Grace said.
"I know auntie, I just can't wait!" Charity said.
"Oh, honey, I'm so happy for you. And I bet Sam will be as happy as I am when he will come home and find out about it." Grace then notices that Charity's smile disappears. "What is it, Charity? What is with that sad look on your face? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, aunt Grace, but it's just that I realized..."
"Realized what, Charity?" Grace asked quickly.
"What if uncle Sam decides not to let me go with Miguel to Paris?"
"Oh, honey, I'm sure he'll let you go there!" said Grace, putting Charity's head on her shoulder. "Maybe he'll be a little worried, but that's it! You know that he wants to see you happy as much as I do!" Grace said, beginning to smile.
"Do you really think so?" asked Charity.
"Of course I think so, Charity!"

"Oh, just look at them. Goodie-goodie two shoes! They're so pathetic..." said Tabitha, who was watching all the conversation the two had from the window. "They always manage to make me sick!" she said, beginning to smile.
"Tabby, I think they're sweet!"
"Sweet, Timmy? I'll tell you, they're a lot of things, but they're not sweet!" she said.
"It's getting cold, Tabby, why did you wanted us to come spy on the Bennets anyway?" Timmy said wrapping his arms around himself.
"Why, Timmy?" she said enraged. "Are you forgetting that ever since that Charity came here in Harmony, she's only done us harm?"
"Well, I think that we've done her more harm than she' done us, Tabby! Charity wouldn't be able to hurt a fly!" Timmy said.
"Oh, shut up Tim-Tim! Stop getting on my nerves! Do you want to go play with Fluffy? Let me hear what they're saying!"
"Ok, Tabitha! You don't have to be so jumpy!" Timmy said.
"Jumpy?" said Tabitha, rolling over her eyes. "Are you forgetting that we must separate Miguel and Charity no matter what? If Charity gets all her powers there's no telling what she could do; it might be curtains for the two of us, Tim-Tim!" said Tabitha with a serious voice, knowing that there was nothing to joke about. "Now shut up; I'm trying to find out what they're saying."

"So when did Miguel tell you this?" asked Grace.
"Oh, just a while ago, let me tell you just how it happened!" responded Charity to her aunt.
"How nice of you to ask me out tonight, Miguel! It's so sweet of you... Thank you!" said Charity, with a sweet, loving voice, looking into Miguel's dark eyes.
"Well you deserve it, Charity!" said Miguel while putting his hand on her cheek. He then kisses her, while holding her in his arms. "I love you, Charity, and for you I'd go to the end of the world!" he said.
"Is that what you say to all of your girlfriends?" she teased. She then laughs, and puts her head on his shoulder. She was the happiest girl in the world, because she knew she had the best boyfriend a person could have. He then also began to laugh.
"Would you like some popcorn, Charity?" he asked her, realizing that in front of them was a popcorn stand.
"Well, ... I'd love some, Miguel!" she said, impressed by the way he treated her. She felt like a princess.
"Well, let's go then!" He said, holding her hand.
...
"Here you go, Charity!" he said while handing her the popcorn.
"Thank you!" She said, smiling at her boyfriend.
They then begun to walk through the park, holding each other's hands. They bought wanted the time to stop, so they could be like that forever. But time flies when you're having fun, doesn't it?
"You know, there's another reason I brought you here tonight, Charity!" he said, looking at his girlfriend.
"Really? And that is..." she said,, smiling at him.
"Well, it's about your birthday..." he begun.
"Oh, Miguel, you remembered when my birthday is!" she said happily.
"Well, I guess that that's what a boyfriend is for ..." he said, smiling. He then took a deep breath and continued. "So, I decided to get you an early birthday gift."
"Oh, Miguel, you know that you shouldn't have!" she said, realizing how good Miguel was to her. He reached for his pocket, and shows Charity a city guide!
"Paris?" she said surprised. "I don't get it..." she said looking at the guide.
"It's so you - we - don't get lost in Paris, where we'll going to be in a week. I made airplane reservations!" he said looking at Charity.
"No, you didn't! I don't belive you! Charity said, smiling at Miguel. "You did, didn't you?" She said, jumping into Miguel's arms.
"And that's how I found out that in one week I was going to see Paris, aunt Grace! Isn't it incredible?" Charity said, looking at her aunt.
"Yes, it is incredible, Charity! I never thought Miguel would do such a thing for you, but it seems like he proved me wrong, doesn't it?" Grace said, laughing.
"I'm so happy!" Charity said, placing her hands on her chest.
"Me to, I'm very happy for you!" Grace said.
***
"Oh, please! Give me a break!" Tabitha said, rolling over her eyes once more. "Just look at them..." she said, looking at Timmy, pointing at Charity and Grace!
"They're just happy!" Timmy said.
"So what, now you're on they're side? Don't make me lock you in the attic with Fluffy!" Thabitha said. "We must find a way to control the situation! We can't leave them go to Paris, all by them selves! Do you know what could happen, Tim-Tim?" said Tabitha.
"Well, let's see! You've only told me a gazillion times." Timmy said.
"Now don't play smarty with me, young man! This is no joking matter!" she said, trying to think of a way to stop them from going. "What? What can I do to stop those two from going?"
***
"So, are you going to stay up all night, young lady, or are you going to get some rest?" asked Grace, after looking at the clock and realizing how late it was.
"Yes, you're right! I didn't even realize how late it is." Said Charity. "I'll go brush my teeth, and then I'll go get some sleep."
"Good night, honey!" said Grace, giving Charity a good night kiss.
"Good night, aunt Grace!"

"I can't belive this is happening, Simone!" said Kay, looking at Simone with a worried expression on her face!
"But how can you be so sure that Charity and Miguel are going to Paris, Kay?" asked Simone.
"I've heard them! Miguel clearly said that they were going to Paris in a week from now!" Kay answered.
"But, how do you know about all of this?" Simone inquired.
"Well ..."
"You've been spying on them again, haven't you Kay?" Simone said.
"So what if I have? Are they going to sue my. They didn't even know I was there." Kay yelled. "Plus, Miguel can't stay with Charity, you know that Simone."
"No, I don't know!"
"Charity's not the kind of girl that could make him happy!"
"And I suppose that YOU are!" said Simone biting her lip.
"Of course I am!" said Kay, convinced by what she said.
"Well, I think that you should get some help, Kay!" said Simone.
"Oh, please, Simone! Give me a break with all that ..." said Kay. "The only crazy person here is Charity."
"I'm so happy for you, Charity! You know I am; because you've been like a daughter for me, ever since you've arrived here in Harmony." Said Grace while holding Charity's hand.
