With Love All Things Are Possible Part 7 The Chambers of Falls was just the beginning of Catherine plans for Vincent. When Catherine felt they loved enough at the Falls. Both wrapped in towels she took his hand and led him back to their chamber. Hoping Mary was able to do everything she had asked her to do she was looking forward to Vincent's reaction. Upon entering their chamber Catherine noticed the red satin sheets she wanted and the few candles remaining placed the chamber in a soft romantic glow. The red wine she brought was chilling in a ice bucket and the last of her request the box of mixed chocolates, she ordered from Paris, were next to the wine. To herself she said Mary thank you it's perfect. Well Vincent what do you think of my surprises? Pulling her against him he took her lips in a kiss and said I love it sweetheart. Leading him into the room she seated him at his writing desk and poured them each a glass of wine. Grabbing the box of chocolates she returned to him and sat on his lap. Being only towels between them the contact was electrifying making them both gasped from the feel of it. Smiling Vincent told her she definitely needs to sit on his lap in only a towel more often. Returning his smile she said that can definitely be arranged and they leaned toward a kiss. Taking a sip of wine she opened the box of chocolates and asked what he preferred light or dark, plain or peanut? Well Catherine I only tasted chocolate once a long time ago so I cannot say. I'll tell you what how about you tasting my favorite and letting me know how it is? Taking a dark one with peanuts she popped it in her mouth and ate it. Grabbing Vincent's lips she explored his mouth with her own and said well how does it taste? Catherine as he licks her lips absolutely delicious and the chocolate does as well. Oh Vincent lightly hitting his arm let's try a plain white piece. After Catherine chewed the next one Vincent kissed her again and said Catherine that was ever better, as for the chocolate I prefer the dark. Good choice. Turning around she straddled his legs, her tiny feet dangling at his sides and they ate half the box.. So Vincent as she enjoys licking the last of the chocolate off his lips what do you think of your first chocolate experience. Well Catherine I need to experiment so more. And how my love are you going to do that? Reaching behind her he grabbed two pieces of chocolate and placed it in his empty wineglass. Holding the glass over the candle on the desk, he let the chocolate melt. When he was satisfied that it had melted enough, he opened Catherine's towel and she found out. Holding each other as they recover from their primal love, the only words spoken I love you. A little Catherine and Vincent the picture of happiness holding hands, are the last ones to enter the grand hall for breakfast. All eyes are on the fairytale couple whose extraordinary love is spellbinding to everyone around them. The Bond shared by the delicate gray green eyed beauty and her magnificent lionize mate still astound all watching as they communicate to each other without saying any words. Vincent gently seats his lovely wife at the table with father and takes his seat by her side. Once they are seated everyone begins to eat. During breakfast Catherine and Vincent discussed going to the cabin for a few days to visit their child. With Catherine starting her seven month of her pregnancy, they knew her time was close and wanted to go before the baby was born. Father and Peter already told them, that based on the child�s size, she would not go the full nine months.. They decided to leave for the cabin late Friday night to arrive at dawn and return by dawn on Monday Christmas Day. Catherine wanted to decorate the cabin for the holiday eventhough they would only be there for a couple of day, so she asked Jenn to pick up some decorations for her. Friday evening came they were all packed and ready to go. They told father to expect them around dawn Christmas Day. They arrived at the cabin early Saturday morning. On the way up Catherine had put on the car stereo and they were predicting a white Christmas, Possibly six to eight inches of snow Catherine has always love a white Christmas and was very excited. They arrived at the cabin and unpacked their luggage and put away the food. While Vincent made a fire Catherine cooked them a small breakfast. After they ate they made sweet ,tender love and fell asleep for a few hours. At 9:00 they woke up and loved each other, showered and changed. Catherine had a full schedule for them today. Going into the kitchen cabinet she retrieved two granola bars tossed one to Vincent and keep one herself. And they were ready to go look for their Christmas tree. They were in the woods about half a hour when Catherine found the perfect tree a six foot, long-needled, blue spruce. Vincent chopped it down and carried back to the cabin. Since it had been snowing all morning the tree was wet. Catherine went into the storage room located the family tree stand and got her new red velvet and gold tree skirt. Vincent placed the tree next to the fireplace. Giving it a chance to dry out,, they began to decorate the cabin. It took them about an hour and a half.. They had decorations on the fireplace, the mirror above it have a lovely wreath, they put garland around the fireplace and Catherine placed a beautiful Christmas centerpiece on the top of the mantle. They put lights in the windows. Christmas candles and holders on each livingroom end table and she had a lovely centerpiece for the coffee table as well. She even had them put some in the bedroom. They had lights in the windows and votive candles with the scents of Christmas all around the room. After they were done they started the tree. Catherine knew Vincent had never did this so she let him have the pleasure of doing most of as she �supervised�. When he was done, she told him she had something for the tree and she would be right back. Vincent heard her rummaging in the bedroom closet and returned with a box in her arms. Opening it for him, inside were three special Christmas bulbs she had made in her spare time. Vincent removed the first one it was the same shade of blue as his eyes and had his name written on it in silver. Catherine this is beautiful. Thank you and he hung it on the tree. She removed the next one the same shade of green as her eyes and on it in gold was her name and she hung it on the tree. When she removed the last one Vincent noticed the glistening of tears on her eyes as she handed it to him. It was a small, lovely white bulb and written in red, was �baby wells�. Laying the box aside Vincent took her in his arms and held her close. A moment later she lifted from his arms and said she was OK. Tilting her head up to him, he lightly kissed her lips and said I know. Together they hung their first baby�s bulb on the tree. Vincent was getting ready to light the tree when she told him they have one last thing to make the tree complete. Going to the bedroom again she returned with another box. Vincent opened it and inside was the tiniest thing he had ever seen. A Christmas village complete with a train. Handing him the box she attempted to sit on the floor by the tree which was no easy feat being seven months pregnant. Vincent looking at her trying to find the best way to do so, he couldn�t help but smile ay her task. Feeling him she said Vincent get that smile off your face I can handle this. Trying another way with no success, he said here giving her his hand let me help you. No thank you I can do it myself. Finally after a few attempts she reached her goal in a very unladylike slight flopped to the floor. Tugging on his pant leg she said come on let�s see how well you do. With his usual catlike grace, he gallantly took a seat on the floor. Looking down and under her breathe she said show off. Raising her head they smiled, shared a kiss and proceeded to set up the village. The village was now set up and the tree was ready to be lit. Vincent rose from the floor and placed the box in the table. Looking at Catherine on the floor knowing it will probably be harder for her to get up, , he gently lifted her in his arms and placed her on her feet. Thank you Vincent. No thanks needed my love and he reached behind the tree and turned on the lights. Pulling Catherine�s back against his chest, he put his arms gently around her protruding belly and they looked at their finished product. Vincent looked all around the cabin than back at the tree saying Catherine it looks absolutely beautiful. Yes it does Vincent. Catherine asked Vincent to put on some Christmas music while she made them some warm apple cider. Bringing their drinks to the table, they cuddled together on the couch listening to Christmas music as they enjoyed their tree. About a half-hour later Catherine fixed them lunch. She had a bowl of soup and a salad and Vincent had soup, salad and a sandwich. They ate lunch each lost in their own thoughts but when their thoughts crossed, they would give each other a look of love. After cleaning the kitchen, they returned to the living room and sat on the couch making plans for tomorrow. When Vincent saw Catherine beginning to drift to sleep he told her to lay her head on hi lap and take her afternoon nap, as she needs more rest since her time is near. Going by the date the baby was conceived Catherine should only be five months pregnant but the baby is growing faster and is now the size of a seven-month-old. Placing a pillow on his lap, she said no she prefers to feel his thighs beneath her. He gently began to caress her face and hair as she falls asleep. Looking at the tree and all around him he looks at the beautiful woman asleep on his lap and thinks about how much he loves her and how happy she has made him and falls asleep as well. An hour later Vincent was awaken by Catherine's soft lips upon his own. Hi my love. Laying her in his arms, he lightly caressed her cheek with his thumb and placed her hair behind her ear. Starting from her lovely neck, he laid soft kisses there and worked his way to her lips. Lifting off the couch he knelt on the floor and gently laid her down. Straddling her body, he began to once again kiss her as he slowly unbuttoned her dress to the waist. His eyes never leaving hers he remove his clothes. Having thoroughly loved her, she held him tight not wanting to let him go. Vincent I love you so much and she huggedhim even tighter. A while later they washed up, dressed and went for a walk on the snow. Returning just before dark they were able to see how lovely the Christmas lights looked in the window. Catherine and Vincent started dinner when they returned. While it cooked they sat by the tree and talked about various things holding each other close. When dinner ws done they ate and returned to the living room. Drinking hot apple cider they lsiten to more Christmas music and decided to play chess by the tree. After Vincent beat her twice she called it quits and asked him to love her. Taking her hand he led her to the bedroom where they loved until dawn. The next day Sunday they visited their baby, walked around the grounds and made Christmas cookies. After dinner Catherine took her nap in Vincent's arms. Waking a hour later with a desperate need to make love to Vincent, she seduced him into oblivion. She loved him with an urgency they had never known. Catherine, what has gotten into you? Vincent I have no idea but I need to love you and she did reckelssly and abandonly. When they were through they drift off into an exhausted. Around 10:00 they woke up when Catherine's water broke.. Within fifteen minutes her labor began and Vincent called Peter. Beside himself with worry he told Peter that her contractions were five minutes apart. Vincent how long has she been in labor. About a half hour. Vincent it seems your little one is in a big hurry to be born so Vincent be calm and listen to me. The roads are blocked due to the blizzard and I cannot get to the cabin until tomorrow morning so you two are on your own. I will come there as soon as I can tomorrow and keep me posted. Catheriine went through two hours of hard labor and Vincent shared it with her. At precisely 12:01 December 25 Catherine and Vincent welcomed their Christmas bundle of joy, a blond hair, blue eyed baby boy as beautiful as his mother.
