The First Time I Loved Forever Part 3 final chapter By Shirley Johns Six months have passed since Catherine and Vincent first consummated their love. Catherine is sitting at the Chamber of Falls remembering how her life was a little over a year ago when she first met Vincent, her husband's name always brings a glow to her ace. She now had her happy life. She had told Joe she was reassigning and getting married and thanked him for everything he did for her. One day she assured him he would meet the lucky guy. She knew Vincent had joined her even before she heard his beautiful voice. He reached down to help her to her feet and wrapped his arms protectively around her and gently rubbed her belly heavy with their child. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him hard. He asked what she was up to and she told him she was going over her life and could not be happier with him and their baby on the way. They both remember the day the baby was conceived and they still carry that same indescribable passion for each other. They do not love as they use to with her advanced pregnancy but the times they do are still earth shattering. As they admire the Falls, which they do any chance they can, Catherine 's labor started. Vincent gently lifted her in his arms as if she weighed that of a child, carried her to their chamber and summoned Father. It had been a painful twelve hours of labor for Catherine and Vincent was beside himself asking if there is anything he can do. With their Bond he could feel; all of her pain. Father, Mary and Dr. Alcott all assured him labor was painful for most women. He relaxed a little but stayed by Catherine's side. Father told him that he can see the baby's head and should not be too much longer. He asked Vincent to go to the end of the bed and hold out his hand to catch the baby. Vincent did and could see the head with its crop of unruly blond hair. Next came the shoulders than the legs and Vincent and Catherine welcome their baby boy. Vincent carried the baby to Catherine kissed her lips with a Thank you and gently laid him by her breast. As soon as he lay on his mother he opened his eyes and saw his father for the first time. Catherine looked at both father and son with the same gorgeously slanted sky blue eyes and blond hair. The rest if him took after his mother from his tiny little hands to his tiny little toes. Yes, Catherine and Vincent's product of love was an extraordinarily beautiful child. Father looked at the lovely picture of his son's family and almost wept. He told Mary and Dr. Alcott they should go and give them some privacy. As soon as they left Catherine and Vincent were silent for a while and both spoke at the same time. Isn't he beautiful and they cried. Six weeks had gone by and Catherine and Vincent could not be happier with their son Jacob whom they named after father. He was the apple of the tunnel community's eye and has been spoiled by everyone since the day he was born. The tunnel community decided Catherine and Vincent needed some time alone so they fixed up a Chamber in the community that was private but not far away from everyone else. They would look after baby Jacob for them for a few days. Father surprised them with this information and they gave their thanks. Catherine and Vincent could not believe what they had done. The chamber was absolutely breathtaking. It had a beautiful white bed with red satin sheets. Hundreds of lit candles and dozens and dozens of red and white roses, a symbol of their love. They stared at the room than into each other's eyes. Since it has been a while since they loved they wasted no time. A while later passion spent the share a passionate kiss as a new life is created. They break for air and Vincent proudly informs her she was pregnant again. She smiled into his sky blue eyes and said if we keep loving like this, I'll be delivering babies every year. The sound of that was so wonderful they loved the rest of the day. After all, practice, "does"make perfect". The End Shirley's Fanfic Index |
