The Beginning Of A New Dream                  Part 7

In the morning Vincent woke up smiling.  He and Catherine had a wonderful
time exploring the tunnels together yesterday.  Their evening was spent making love
until the wee hours of the morning.  Vincent thought his stamina was great
but last night and this morning; well let's just say Catherine proved him
wrong. Where she got the energy he may never know.  When she finally let
him retire to his chamber, he was totally exhausted but quite fulfilled.
Rolling out of his bed he noticed a magazine on his nightstand "Modern
Bride"  �now where did that come from? �  Maybe Catherine left it there.  Lying
it back down, he said he would ask her later.  Going to the basin he washed
his face and brushed his teeth. Tiding his bed he went next door to wake up
Catherine as he does every morning. Seeing that she was still asleep, he
removed his robe and climbed in bed next to her and his lovemaking began.

Stretching lazily Catherine said "Vincent promise me you will never stop
waking me this way."  "I have become addicted to your lovemaking."  "I
don't think I could start my day without it."  Pulling him back to her she
was ready to start session number three.

�Catherine isn't amazing how our lovemaking gets better and better and  I am
afraid my love that if I do not get you out of this bed and start our day,
I will be tempted to see how much better is can get."

Smiling at him she said, Vincent I wouldn't mind that at all."

Shaking his head he said Catherine what am I going to do with you and he
kissed her lips.

With a wicked gleam in her eyes she said, I will give you all afternoon to
think about it.  But your evening belongs to me.  Giving him  a quick kiss
on the lips she rolled out of bed and noticed a magazine on her nightstand.
Picking it up she rolled back over and asked Vincent if he left it for her.

"No Catherine I did not, let me see, smiling when he realized it was the
same one left in his room .  "Catherine I found the same magazine when I
woke up this morning and was going to ask you about it."

"Since neither of us left it than who did Vincent?�

�I have no idea Catherine.�  �We can inquiry about them later.� Climbing out of her bed, he told her he was going to go get dressed and  would come to get
her when he was done.  Giving her one more kiss, he returned to his
chamber.

When  he was dressed before Catherine he told her to take her time, he
wants to  see father anyway. He would return in a half hour.  Placing  a
kiss on her brow he went to see father.

Arriving at father's chamber Vincent could tell that he was not there and
noticed a book on his desk titled  "Secrets To A Successful Marriage."
Looking  at the book he said "this is a strange book for father to have�
and he laid it back down when he heard his cane on the floor.

Good morning son, I need to discuss some tunnel issues with you if you
have a minutes.

"Sure father." "What would you like to discuss and the book was
forgotten for now."

Two days later Catherine and Vincent woke up to find a  cake decorating
book on their nightstands.  On the front was the picture of a beautifully
decorated wedding cake. Once again neither knew how they got there.

By the third day another magazine was there and they had a pretty good idea what was going  but kept
silent .

When they woke up the fourth day each found an unopened  box of rice.
Picking it up Vincent smiled and said that's it." Leaving his chamber he almost ran right
into Catherine . They saw each other�s boxes and they laughed..

"Catherine I think someone has plans for us and I am pretty sure who it is.
Taking her hand  and their boxes of rice they went to see father.

"Catherine, Vincent come in."  "You took look well."  "What can I do for
you ?"  At the same time  they held up their boxes.

"Oh I see" said father feeling  slightly quilty  that he had been  caught.  Before
he could respond, "Jacob I took care of their rice do you need me to get
some more magazines?"  "When Mary realized he wasn't alone she said oh my
looking just as quilty as Jacob."

�Mary it seems Catherine and Vincent already know what we did .�

�I hope you two are not mad at us said Mary.� �We just want to see the two of you
married.

Vincent laid down his box and than Catherine�s and pulled her close.
"Father, Mary  we appreciate all you went through for us  but it  was not necessary.  "Four days ago Catherine agreed to become my wife."  "We were
going to tell you than but our subtle  hints  began to appear so we decided to wait.

"Son I am so happy for both of you."  "Have you decided when you would like to get married?."

Looking at Catherine, Vincent  smiled and said in four weeks.
