Chapter 10: Casey Knows

Jasper POV

Today was the big day. The day we all had waited and feared. We were finally going to tell Casey the truth. We were going to tell her what we were. She was going to learn everything about us. I was honestly terrified. What if she was scared of us? What if she didn't want this? We had thought of that and decided that if she doesn't want us anymore then we couldn't force her to stay with us if she didn't want too. I hoped so much that she would let us explain ourselves first before she ran right out the door and back to that evil Mrs. Hewitt!

Casey was still in bed and I could sense the nervousness in my family and the excitement that Casey was finally home with us again and after this morning we wouldn't have to hide anything from her about what we were.

Rosalie walked Casey down the stairs and over to the large wooden kitchen table where Esme had Casey's favorite breakfast, pancakes and bacon, ready for her. Casey was eating quietly when we all sat down at the table ready to begin our little talk.

"Casey, can we talk about something?" Carlisle asked slowly taking caution.

"Sure!"

"Umm…" Carlisle had no idea of what to say to Casey. She was a seven year old little human girl and we were extremely old and dangerous vampires, nobody had the words to explain to her the truth.

"Have you ever seen the movie Dracula?" Esme asked trying to get to the point the best she could.

"Yep, Emmett and I watched it together it was scary with the vampire and all the blood and killing!" She said shaking at the end. I didn't know which I should be more concerned about. Casey being terrified of vampires and already having a bias against them or that Emmett actually let her watch that movie!

"Well, you see we all have something in common with Dracula," Rosalie said slowly with the most extreme caution watching her words.

"I don't understand," Casey said putting her fork down beginning to realize where Rose was headed right to the truth that we are vampires.

"Casey we are vampires, but we are good ones," Carlisle admitted declaring what everyone couldn't say.

"What do you mean your good ones?" Casey said asked, "Will you hurt me?" She sunk down a tad in her seat and looked at each of our faces. Tears began appearing in her eyes, but no one could comfort her we didn't want her to fear us anymore.

"Casey we don't hurt people and we will never hurt you." I said slowly.

Casey through herself in Esme's arms and began to sob probably not able to think of her as a vampire. Alice ran to her side and they tried to calm her quietly. Nobody spoke we all hide our faces. Rosalie was crying softly and Emmett had his arm around her his facial expression bleak.

"Are you sure you won't eat me?" Casey asked her eyes wet starring into Alice's pleading as if it was a bad dream and she wanted to wake up.

"I promise, we all do," Alice said smiling and hugging her having a vision that by her happy mood and the sigh of relief that came from Edward that everything was going to be ok. She was going to stay and be ours!

"Now there is one really important thing we need to tell you," Esme said.

"What?"

"You can never tell anyone what we are okay or we will all be in really big trouble."

"Okay, as long as I get to stay with you!

"Forever"
