The Right Choice                                                          Part 8

Three months have gone by and Catherine is bigger than six months along in her pregnancy. She found out from Father and Peter her baby will be early.  She is still working with Joe and her life Below is perfect.  Vincent treats her like a queen  and waits on her hand and foot.  After the incident with Elliot Vincent made her promise to never close their Bond again and she hasn�t.  Elliot has not attempted to contact her again, which is fine, because Vincent has sworn if he did he would not hesitate to do what he must. So she prays every night  that she never sees him again.  Joe keeps kidding her about how big her belly is getting and Vincent tells her how beautiful she is.  He said �her pregnancy actually has her glowing� but she says no it is my love for you.  They are so happy together.  They spend as much time with each other as their schedules allow.  Catherine is quitting work after the baby comes much to Vincent�s delight.  They had discussed this in her third month.  She  told him she wants to spend every possible moment with him and their child and she told Joe a week later.  Joe was  glad she decided to stay home with the baby.  Both the parents and the child miss out on so much and  he will miss her.

Today is Catherine's  day off and she is sitting in their chamber knitting a blanket for the baby.  Vincent came home early to be with her.  She had such a determined look in her lovely eyes, he did not want to disturb her right away.  So he just watched  his  Catherine for a few moments from their  chamber entrance.  I love this  beautiful woman from Above so much.  She came into my life three years ago and stole my heart.  He had thought he was in love  once when he was a teen.  How wrong he had been.  When  you find true love it is the loveliest thing on this earth.  His love for Catherine gets stronger everyday.  He could not live without her.  She has his heart now and forever.

Feeling someone in the room, Catherine laid the knitting aside looked up  and said   Vincent how long have you been standing there?  Only a few moments Catherine.  I was admiring your beauty as you work and thinking how much I love you.  Catherine  rose out of her chair and held out her arms.  Come here handsome and he gathered  her in his arms.  I love you Vincent.  Oh Catherine  how can our love  be so strong.  The power within it is unbelievable.  Our connection Catherine only increases that powerful love.  Yes Vincent it does and every time I am near you my heart flutters and my love for you warms me.  Vincent make love to me?  Catherine wait right here and he went to close the tapestry.  Returning he lifted Catherine in his arms and carried her to the bed.  Once he laid beside her she said  Vincent let our love become as one and he did.

Later as they embrace Catherine said �every time we make love I love you even more.  Yes Catherine, I feel it too and they drifted to sleep in each other arms.

Catherine is entering her seventh month and her due date could be any day now.   She was working late at the office helping Joe with a case.  Vincent did not mind as he was going to be late working himself.  She was busy at her desk proofreading Joe�s material, while he rehearsed his speech in his office, when she felt a sharp pain in her back.  Oh my I think I am in labor.  Waving to Joe he came out of his office.  What�s up Radcliffe?  Joe I am in labor .  What said Joe , and he started to panic, you're in labor?  Cath what do I do call an ambulance, 911 what Cath?  Help me out here? Joe listen my husband knows I am in labor and is on his way here.  Cath when did you call him?  Joe I didn�t have to he felt it.  What do you mean Cath he felt it? Joe my husband is different from other man, ow as a labor pain hits, he  knows my feelings when I do, he knows my thoughts and right now he is sharing my labor pains.  Joe said Cathy I am really confused here.  Listen Joe he will be here very soon please do not be shocked by what you see and how he gets here.   Joe please just stay with me he�ll be here soon.  OK Cath we will wait.  Within ten minutes Joe heard a noise outside the office window, which is ten stories up, and saw a shadow .  Cath someone is at the window.  Joe I know just open it that would be my husband.  Cathy what ?Joe just do it.  When he opened the window he stepped back when he saw Vincent as he jumped into the room and ran to Catherine.  My love I felt your pain is it the baby?  Yes Vincent I am in labor.  Catherine we must get you home said Vincent..  Joe I would have preferred the two of you to meet under different circumstances but hunching her shoulders Joe meet my husband Vincent. Hello Joe I am glad to meet you Catherine has told me so much about you.   Vincent, Joe said, finally able to catch his voice, Cathy did not tell  much about you.  Well Joe after meeting me I guess you can see why?  Yes I can.  Joe listen said Catherine, we can talk about this later right now I need to get Below to have our baby.  OK Cathy, Vincent can I come?  Sure Joe meet us at the tunnel entrance  on the North Side of the park in ten minutes.  Um Cath how are you getting there?  Vincent smiled the same way I came the roof.  Looking at the stunned looked on Joe�s  face Cathy laughed,  in between the pain, ten minutes Joe and Vincent carried her back through the window.  Shaking his head in disbelief Joe turned out the lights and left the office.

They arrived at the tunnel entrance a few minutes apart.  Well Joe, said Catherine, you ready to enter our world.   Joe nodded  yes and  the three of them entered the tunnels.
