When Friendship Turns To Love Part 20 (rated pg-13)

The two weeks before the wedding went by quickly for Catherine and Vincent.  Devin was quite comfortable being back home.  He had decided to stay for a little while after the wedding.

Vincent was glad he had decided to stay.  Today he was as nervous as any bridegroom could be. Having Devin there to ease some of his nervousness helped alot.  It wasn't easy thought, feeling Catherine's nervouness in the chamber next to his made it even harder. On top of all that Vincent has this feeling something was going to go wrong.

"Catherine dear, stop figeting."  "I cannot button your dress."

"I am sorry Mary."  "I just have this awful feeling something is going to go wrong today."

"Catherine what could possible go wrong?" "You are marrying the man that you love."

"I know but I cannot shake this feeling."

"Well I suggest that you do and concentrate on getting dress before this wedding starts without you.

Catherine laughed than, "all right Mary, I will try."

"There the buttons are all done now let's do your veil."

Meanwhile in Vincent's chamber he was pacing the floor.  "

"Vincent, everything will be find."  "In just a little while you will be marrying the woman of your dreams." "How can anything go wrong?  "Now finish getting dress and please stop pacing you are wearing a hole in the rug."

Vincent smiled than, and looked down at the carpet a moment. "Thanks for the pep talk Devin, and there�s no hole in the rug."

Devin laughed, "I know but it did get you to stop pacing. "

Vincent laughed as well before taking a seat on his bed.  Grabbing his boots he began to put them one.  "Devin I cannot believe this day is finally here." "In a little while Catherine and I will be man and wife."  "Do you remember when we were little I use to tell you how I wish I could find a woman to love me for all that I am."  "A woman I could spend my life with, have children with even with my differences?"

�Yes I remember you thought it was an impossible dream.�

�Back than I did.� �But a  year after you left,  I started developing feelings  toward  Lisa."

�As yes I remember  Lisa the ballerina.�  �You two did spend a lot of time together.�  �Almost as much as you and I did.�

�Yes we did.� �About a year after you left the tunnels, Lisa and I grew even closer.� �Our bodies were maturing we began to desire each other.�  �Father apparently realized what was happening.�  �To prevent them from escalating any further, father let her go Above to pursue a career in dancing.� "I was so hurt by what he did it took me a long time to forgive him." �Did father tell you Lisa came home several months ago?� 

�Yes he did.�  �Why didn�t she stay for the wedding?�

�Well Dev to make a long story short, Lisa wanted to rekindle our relationship and we almost made love at the falls.�

�Vincent man, how could you have done that to Catherine?�

�At the time it happened, Catherine and I were just friends.� �It was not until I almost lost her in a water hole Below that I realized I cared a great deal more for her than I thought.�  �It was the day we first made love.�  �Making love to Catherine that day was the most beautiful experience of my life.�  �It changed me Devin.�  �I felt like a man for the first time in my life.�


�I can see how it would.�  �Catherine is a very beautiful woman.�  �You are one lucky guy.�

�She is beautiful isn�t she.� �I am lucky.� �That was also the day  I realized I was in love with her and she realized she was in love with me.�

�Wait Vincent.�  �If you and Catherine found out you loved each other that day,  why did father tell me Catherine and baby Jacob had only moved been Below a couple of months?�  �Didn�t she want to live here with you and your son?�

�It was because of Lisa.�

�What does Lisa have to do with it?�

�Well you see Devin and Vincent proceeded to tell him the turn of events.�

�Devin whistled after Vincent told him the story.�  �So that explains why Lisa is not here for your wedding.� �Speaking of weddings we cannot have one without you little brother?�   �Let�s get going so you can marry the woman of your dreams.�

�Most definitely and the brothers left his chamber.�

�Oh I am so nervous.� Catherine looked in the mirror and smoothed her dress, �Mary do I look all right?�

�Catherine you look absolutely beautiful.� 

�I hope so.�  �I want to make Vincent proud.�

�Catherine sweetheart, no dress in the world could make Vincent more proud of you than he already is.�  �Now come on dear.�  �You and Vincent have waited long enough for this day.�
