After the last real chapter I got a nasty comment from someone. Just FYI I take CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISM. I hope that they know who they are.

Chapter 10 –Charm.
I have been missing school because I didn't want to face the kids. Since I am pretty thin and small after four months I had a pretty big bump. Carlisle said it was because I was having twins. That is the only news I liked in a while.
Alice has already taken me shopping for maternity clothes. They are okay but mostly for older woman. I managed to find a great outfit for dinner tonight
Casey transferred into all of my classes to keep an eye out on me. I really do like his protective side. Kind of sexy.
In the car I was taking really deep breaths and started to hyperventilate when we got closer to the school.
"Casey I can't do this. I have to back home." I was cuddled up to his chest.
"You can do this hun. I am in your every class and I won't leave your side."
He started to rub my back.
"Okay I'll go. Will you help me out of the car?"
"Sure." He got out and went around the car. I opened the door and he grabbed my hand.
When I got out of the car the lot got dead quiet. It was starting out exactly like I thought. If things keep going this way I will have to leave school and move to Texas. I was seriously dreading the rest of the day.
Casey squeezed my hand as if to ask if I was okay. I nodded and I started to walk to my first class.
I was wearing a Plain long sleeve black shirt with a white skirt with black trim. My shoes were red flats with a flower. The necklace matched.
Katie a girl from my class just stared at me. I never really liked her. She was always so stuck up. "Nessie, did you forget something?"
I blushed. Casey put his arm around me protectively. I really wish I had friends that go to this school. Most of the Girls hate me because I am rich. I try to make friends but all they do is write me off.
When we got to class Casey handed a not to the sub explaining why he was there. She barley looked up from her schedule. Mom looked at us a in a weird way and shook her head and laughed. We sat in the back row playing with each others fingers. My engagement ring was so beautiful. I couldn't wait for the wedding. I could just picture us saying 'I do'. I sighed and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Class was so short because Case realized he could freeze the people around him so time would continue going. We talked and kissed. But then I pointed out there was only a minute left so he should let the people move. It was hilarious watching the people look at each other and wonder where the time went.
We held hands all the way to P.E. and I got to sit out. Turns out that is not as good as it sounds. Everyone was staring at me and pointing. I don't think the blush ever left my face. Casey came over to me twice to see how I was doing. Each time I heard people whispering "I hope he's the father." and "I told you this would happen." I gave him a kiss and told him I was fine. I don't think he believed me but he always turned around to get back to the game.
I felt something hit the inside of my stomach and I winced. It didn't hurt but it was just unexpected. Casey must have seen because he was by my side stroking my hair. I noticed that people were frozen again.
"Sweetheart are you okay?"
"I'm fine one of the babies kicked that's all."
"Are you sure you are okay. If not I can call you Grandfather."
"Casey. I. am. fine. No need to worry."
"Okaaaay." He slowly walked back to where he was standing and looked over at me again. Then every one was moving again.
Class ended shortly after that.
After science we went to lunch. Casey and I sat at a different table then the rest of my family. We held hands across the table as he was telling me his plans on supporting the family.
"I hope to get this next job that I applied for. It's pretty much a little job to have until I finish High school. I think I want to be a firefighter."
"Casey I don't think I like the idea of you being a firefighter. They get hurt a lot and some iven die. I couldn't stand losing you." I started to feel tears at my eyes.
He got up to sit on the bench next to me. He put his arm around my shoulders and I snuggled into his chest. He rubbed my back and I felt instantly better.
"Nessie, are you forgetting what I am? I can magically put the fire out and I barley have to move my hand."
"True. That makes me feel better."
"Nessie do you want to go to dinner tonight?"
"Sure. Alice will love to do my hair and makeup I haven't been around for her to tourture me lately."
He laughed. "Let's go to a quiet but classy place."
"Perfect." I kissed him softly on the lips.
After school was out Alice and I talked about what we would do with my hair. I put it half up and the rest of my bronze ringlets fall down my back.
Alice picked out a strapless green dress, a brown suede-ish coat, black purse, and black pumps as my outfit.
Casey was at our apartment getting ready. He showed up in a blue striped button down shirt and khaki pants. I thought he looked hot with his hair slicked back. Now you could see those eyes I love.
When we go to the restaurant I noticed the parking lot was halfway full. Which is always good because now we could have some privacy.
I took his hand and we walked to the door. The restaurant was nice but not to nice. Just the way I like it. We gave the lady our name and she had us wait. When our waiter came he looked at me like most of the boys did on the first day of school. I felt Casey wrap his arms around my waist.
I giggled.
We sat down at the table. There was a single candle for us to read our menus. I decided not to get anything. I set down my menu.
"Oh sweetheart I am so sorry. I forgot. Would you like to go to the pizzeria?"
"No it's fine I should just pretend to eat."
The waiter came back and Casey grabbed my hand.
"Have we figured out what we want for the evening?" He said not paying any attention to Casey.
"I think my fiancée will order first."
He unwillingly looked at Casey. I wish I could hear what they were thinking.
Fiancée! Damn! I thought maybe just a boyfriend I could cut out of the picture.
I gasped. Where did that come from?
They both looked at me.
"Darling are you all right?"
"One of the babies kicked." I lied.
Baby! She's pregnant! There is no way that she will ever like me.
I hope Nessie is okay. The baby sure has been kicking a lot. I think I should tell Carlisle.
I got up from the table. "Will you order for me I...I...I need to go to the bathroom."
I walked to the restroom, checked to see if there was anyone in there, then called dad.
"Daddy, I don't know what's happening! All of a sudden I heard voices inside my head."
"Are you sure? Was it everyone's voice or just a specific person?"
"I heard Casey's and the waiters."
"Not to worry Nessie. You have a new power. But unlike me you can control who you want to hear."
"Really? Cool."
I hung up.
I walked out of the bathroom felling upbeat and down right happy. I kept testing out my power out.
Who is that chick? I saw her going to the bathroom but it looks like she's knocked-up.
A divorce!? That is why she brought me here! To tell me she wants a divorce?
I decided that conversation was a little personal.
I hope the food here is good. Oh look. tsk tsk What is the world coming to? "Harry look at that pregnant girl. What is the world coming to? She looks about 17." Said the lady to her husband. "Shannon not to worry. She is married or engaged. Look at her ring finger."
I stopped listening and went to the table.
The waiter was go so I decided to tell Casey.
Case, Guess what! don't tell me what you are going to say though.
He looked worried. Is she okay?
"I'm fine. But guess."
How did she know what I was think-
"Thinking. I read your mind." I said finishing his sentence.
He looked shocked.
"Really? Wow. You are the most special person I know."
I blushed and looked down.
I saw a plate of oranges. Yum they are my new favorite food. I loved the citrusy taste to them.
"Oranges. Thanks."
He looked like he just remembered something important.
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a box.
He came to sit next to me.
"Nessie you know I love you right?"
I nodded.
"I want to give you something that I hope you think of us when you look at it."
When he opened the box I saw a golden charm bracelet. It was absolutely beautiful.
The charms on it were a graduation cap, a bird and egg, a ring, an orange, popcorn, and a genie lamp.
"Nessie they all mean something. The ring is because we are engaged, the orange is your favorite food, the bird and egg is for the baby, the graduation cap says the year that we will graduate, the popcorn is for the movies where we said 'I love you', and the genie lamp is magic."
I felt tears in my eyes. I was speechless so I showed him how I felt.
I love it. The rest was just blank thoughts and feelings.
I kissed him with so much passion we didn't notice when the waiter came.
He cleared his throat.
"Would you like anything else?" God! Can't they do that somewhere else.
I sighed "We're good. But thanks."
He left. Casey tuned to me. "Love do you know why I got you a bracelet?"
I shook my head.
"Because you are my charm."
I started crying. He was so sweet.
"I love you Nessie."
"I love you too, Case"

There was Chapter ten.
I always wanted a Juicy charm bracelet so I decided to give Nessie one. All outfits are posted on my profile. I love comments and CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISM.
