With Love All Things Are Possible Part 8 With tears in his eyes Vincent wrapped their son in a blanket and layed him in Catherine's arms. He's beautiful Catherine my love thank you and softly kissed her lips. Caressing Vincent's face she said he is beautiful just as I knew he would be thank you my love as tears form in her eyes. Catherine had told him that she had brought diapers and a few clothes for the baby and to look in the back of the bedroom closet. He gently took their son from her and carefully cleaned and changed him. Returning to the bedroom he layed the baby at Catherine's breast where he immediately began to feed. Vincent slide in bed beside them and rested his head at her other breast. Looking down at him she ran her fingers through his beautiful blond hair and felt a tear upon her breast. Closing her eyes she was content having the two most important people in her life so close to her heart. A few hours later Vincent woke up next to Catherine and looked at the sleeping form of his lovely wife and the mother of his child. Looking at his beautiful son in his mother's arms he cannot believe how his life was changed since he met Catherine less than a year ago in the park. Father had told him that night before he ventured out that he did not know what may await him. He would have never expected it would be the woman of his dreams. He feel in love with her, married her and fathered two children with her. Slowly rising out of bed, he gently removed his son from Catherine's breast and laid him beside her on the bed. Stirring Catherine said Vicent holding out her arms come here. Taking his lips is a kiss she thanked him for their child. Releasing his lips she smiled saying how is our little one doing.? Vincent said he is just fine. Catherine asked him if he could watch their son while she tended to her personal needs. Helping out of bed, she went to the bathroom. When she returned Vincent was laying on the bed just looking at his son holding is baby finger in his tiny little hand. Seeing the picture before iracle of their love sleep. Gently rising from the bed being careful not to wake the baby, Vincent told Catherine to rest while he called Peter to see if he was still coming to the cabin. A few minutes later Vincent came back to the bedroom to tell Catherine Peter would be up later and will bring the baby crib but she had fallen asleep next to their child. Pulling a chair close to the bed he sat and looked at the sight before him, his lovely wife Catherine and their son. Softly touching the baby's unruly blonde locks and giving the baby a kiss on the cheek, he said I love you my son as a tear rolls down his cheek. Reaching over he lightly touches Catherine's face saying you have made all of my dreams come true I love you my beautiful white rose and placed a light kiss on her lips. Stirring Catherine said and I love you too. I am sorry Catherine I did not mean to wake you. That's all right Vincent I would rather be with the two beautiful men in my life than sleep. Vincent will you hold me in your arms so I know this is not a dream. Going to her he gathered her in a tight embrace. Vincent hold me tight, tighter you feel so good around me never let me go. Catherine it feels so right with you in my arms I could never let you go and he takes lips is a kiss. Oh by the way I talked to Peter and he'll be here around 4:00 and I asked him to bring the baby crib. Vincent you think of everything thank you. Catherine how about you holding that thought until later tonight after the baby is asleep for the night. Vincent what do you mean? Ah Catherine you just have to wait and see. Come on Vincent why a mystery can't you tell me? Catherine I am afraid I cannot. I'll go make us dinner. Leaving her staring at him from behind, he turned back to her smiling and said you won't be disappointed. Oh Vincent. When she heard him chuckle, she tossed a pillow at his back as he left the room. What could he be up too? Well I could try and read his thoughts but he probably shut them down. Catherine she heard her name from the kitchen you have to wait my love. Oh Vincent I don't let being in suspense. Trust me Catherine you won't mind this a bit. I'll call you when dinners ready my love rest now. Well rest was the last thing on Catherine's mind as she tries to figure out what Vincent's up too. As she lay by their son thinking she was more tired than she thought and drifted off to sleep. Waking to Vincent calling her for dinner, she rose out of bed. Picking up the baby she went in the kitchen. Here my dear take a seat and I'll serve you dinner why you feed our little one. I may not be a gourmet cook, but I am not half bad. Hope you enjoy it and he laid her plate in front of her. Actually the food looked good he had made fried chicken macaroni and cheese. Tasting it she said if you keep cooking this good, I may never cook again. Smiling he said thank you Catherine but I know you would miss fixing those fabulous dinners. Of course your right Vincent but how about I let you cook once in a while. Catherine it's a deal and they sealed it with a kiss. As Vincent cleaned the kitchen Catherine fed the baby. Every now and than Vincent would stop what he was doing to look at his wife and child and a warmness settles in his heart. Catherine with her back to him knows what he is thinking and smiles as she shares his feelings. Vincent told her to take a seat n the livingroom and he would be there shortly. When his cleaning was done he out the dished away and joined her on the couch. Placing her on his lap, they enjoyed watching their son take in everything around him. Catherine he is so beautiful taking the tiny hand in his own. Looking at his father his slanted blue eyes seemed to recognize him and he smiled. Vincent it seems he knows his daddy already. Catherine there is a Bond between us. A few minutes later Catherine was just about to ask Vincent what he meant earlier but the look in his eyes told her he would not tell her. Around 3:00 Vincent asked her if she wanted to freshen up and change while he watched the baby. Vincent that is a great idea I'll do just that. While she showered Vincent held his son as he anxiously awaited Peter's arrival. Showered and dressed Catherine returned to the livingroom looking as beautiful as ever. Going to her he placed the baby in her arms and took her lips in a kiss. Catherine you look beautiful as always. I love you. Vincent I love you too and she returned his kiss. At 4:00 Peter arrived but was not alone. Smiling Vincent told Catherine to relax he will help Peter. Catherine heard voices a lot of them (thinking Vincent what have you done?) Vincent entered the cabin first carrying the baby crib and behind him was Jenn, Peter, Father, Mary, Jamie, Mouse, Kipper, Eric Samantha and a few other tunnel children all loaded down with packages. Looking at Catherine's expression, Vincent said my love since you could not be Below for Christmas, I thought I would bring it to you. Merry Christmas sweetheart. With tears in her eyes she went to Vincent wrapped her arm around him saying this is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. Thank you Vincent I love you. Everyone gather around Catherine to wish her a Merry Christmas and to see the baby. When father saw his first grandchild it brought tears to his eyes. Catherine and Vincent he has got to be the most extraordinary beautiful child I have ever seen with his golden complexion, slanted sky blue eyes and the same unruly blonde hair Vincent had at this age the rest of him took after his beautiful mother. He could not stop looking at the miracle before him. Father asked Catherine if he could hold the baby. As soon as he held him in his arms, he gave father a big smile as if he knew who he was. Father along with everyone else fell in love with the baby and could not wait to spoil him. While the food William had sent was put away and the Christmas gifts placed under the tree, Peter asked Vincent to hold the baby until he examined Catherine. Taking her to the bedroom he gave her a clean bill of health. She was fine. Returning to the livingroom, he told Vincent Catherine was just fine and he wanted to check the baby. After the baby was examined he was given a clean bill of health as well. Peter said since mother and baby are doing fine let us begin the celebration. The evening was great for Catherine getting to spend Christmas with her new family. She will always remember what Vincent did for her. But all too soon they had to return Below. Catherine wrapped the baby in the beautiful blanket outfit Mary has made and they went out on the porch to say goodbye. Catherine thanked everyone for coming with tears in her eyes. Father was the last to leave, giving them both a hug and kissing his grandson, he was overcome with tears looking at his son's beautiful family. Catherine thank you for making Vincent's life so happy. Father no need to thank me, if it was not for you raising Vincent, my life would never have been this wonderful. Father I thought I could not love Vincent any more than I already did until he gave me his child. Father I gladly gave up my life above for Vincent and I would do it all over again. I love him more than you know and she gently kissed Vincent's lips. He is everything to me I have no regrets and a life full of love and happiness because of him. Looking at Vincent with tears in his eyes he said he was glad he did not listen to the words of a foolish old man and followed his heart. I almost made a big mistake trying to keep you two apart and Vincent I am glad your stubbornness led you to pursue your dream. I love you both. See you two in a few days and take care of my precious grandson. Catherine said we love you too father and your grandson is in good hands. Smiling he said I know and walked to the van.. Turning around after shutting the door, Catherine grabbed Vincent in a big embrace and said how can I ever thank you for doing this for me. It was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. I love you so. Catherine seeing your face and your happiness made it worthwhile. Vincent I am glad you did not tell me earlier it would have ruined the surprise. The baby had fallen asleep so Catherine put him in his crib in the bedroom. Taking Vincent's hand, she led him to the bedroom and thanked him the best way that she could. At 11:00 p.m. they were awaken by the sweet sound of their baby�s cry. Telling Catherine to rest Vincent went and picked up the baby. Approaching the bed with his son in his arms, he unbuttoned Catherine�s nightgown and laid the baby at her breast. Seeing the sight before him left his heart filled with love. Come here Vincent, rest your head on me I need you close. Vincent watched as she finished feeding and burping their son. After holding him a while he feel asleep and Vincent returned him to his crib. Coming back to the bed he held Catherine as they fell asleep dreaming of the love they will share when Catherine�s six weeks have gone by. The next day as Vincent and Catherine take down the Christmas decorations they will always remember their first Christmas together. When all the decorations were put away, they started getting things done to close down the cabin. They will be returning Below tomorrow just in time for Winterfest. Vincent told her that this is the tunnel community�s special day of celebration between Christmas and New Years. Vincent could feel how excited she was about the celebration and it made him happy knowing that she was looking forward to sharing this special time with him in his world. After everything was done, the three of them spent their last evening at the cabin in front of the fireplace until dawn. <> Part 9 Shirley's FanFic Index |
