A New Life
By: Kristy J/ElenaGilbert1064
Full summary: When Catherine is being forced to marry Gabe will Vincent be able to stop the wedding Or will Catherine end up married to Gabe and he loose her forever.
I stood there on Catherine's roof top waiting for her to get home from work. I had been waiting for hours but I would wait as long as it took for her to get here. I need to know what she told Gabe when he asked her to marry him. I hoped that she said "no I will not marry you." I could tell that Catherine and I still have feelings for one another. But she still wanted to see what her and Gabe's relationship would go.
Finally, she arrived home and turned on the lamp. She placed her gun and badge on the table beside the lamp. I came down the fire escape and into her bedroom.
"who's there"
"its me Catherine"
"Vincent thank god"
She wrapped her arms around me and I took her hand she had a engagment ring on her finger.
"its not what it looks like I am taking it off"
"why you are happy with him do not let me..."
Catherine cut me off in the middle of my sentence I was saying.
"I went to his apartment to end are relationship I love you Vincent and I just wish that it was you that put this ring on me"
"what"
"I was going to come back to you once I broke up with Gabe but he said that if I did not say yes he would kill you and the put me in jail for covering up cases that you had helped with in the past"
She headed to her room to get ready for bed. I grabbed her arm to stop her and I then turned her to face me.
"look at me don't be with Gabe be with me I will find us away out of New York so we can be together"
"I can put us into witness protection easy"
"yeah see that would help us be together easy"
"can I get a shower now I have been working with a drug case all day and I can still smell it on my clothes"
"yeah I will wait"
"you staying tonight"
"yes of coarse I will fix us something to eat why'll you take your shower"
I kissed her and she went to the bathroom and was taking a shower. I started supper with what I could find that there would be enough of for to go around. As she came back around the corner from taking her shower there was a knock at the door. Catherine ran up and asked how it was and looked the peep whole in her door it was Gabe. Catherine whispered "shut go to my bedroom and lock the door. I ran to the bedroom as I shut the door, Catherine opened the front door of the apartment. I sat on the bed and waited for her to say that he was gone. Gabe then noticed that dinner was on the stove.
"why so much food Catherine"
"I invited Vincent and J.T over for supper to tell them about are engagment I figured you wouldn't mind after even if I am not happy about it they are my friends and would like to know I am marrying the ADA"
"yeah and it better be a good bye to Vincent tonight or I will kill him"
"it will be I promise"
Gabe stormed out of the apartment and rushed to Catherine. She was in tears he had made her upset and I did not appericate him upsetting her like that.
"you okay"
"yeah we need to leave as soon as Tess can bring us the ID's and things from the station in the morning"
"I will call and tell J.T that I am leaving town and why"
"that part wait until we are out of town and have new phones so he can not trace mine that would be bad Vincent"
"I know"
I then walked over and pulled the hamburgers off the stove, along with the vegetables I was steaming. Catherine grabbed the wine and the glasses. She set them on the counter and stopped. She walked over to me and put her arms around my neck.
"I love you Vincent"
"I love you more"
"marry me"
"yes I will marry you"
Catherine kissed me and we then, at the table and ate. After dinner Catherine got up and went to the sofa and sat down. She turned on the television and quickly fell asleep there on the sofa. I picked her up and carried her to bed. She has told me not to carry her but I do not listen at all to her. One the sofa can hurt her back or shoulder if she sleeps wrong. I placed her on the bed and cover her up and slid in beside her. She turned and ans snuggles against me. I quickly fell asleep that night knowing that she was going to be mine we were going to be together now. But in the morning we will have to do something even more dangerous before we can be together in public. We had to pack up are clothes and important things and get out of here. Catherine was going to call in sick so that would by us some time with Gabe. But if he found us in the small town we where going to we would go into witness protection. The next, morning we where up at the crack of dawn. We admittly started to pack her things. We where about to head out when Gabe knocked on the door.
"get my suitcases and go to the bedroom"
I quittly grabbed them and rushed to the bedroom and shut the door.
"Catherine why are you not ready for work"
"I am not feeling well this morning I think I am going to stay home"
"yeah of coarse I will stop by after work"
When Gabe was gone we got in Catherine's car and drove to boathouse. We then, packed my things and headed out of New York. She shut had shut off her phone's GPS so it could not be traced. I deleted the tracking app in my burner that J'T had put in there in case I was taking against my will again. J.T would and could have us found in five seconds if Gabe asked about it. Gabe didn't know about the app but all he would have to say was we where kidnapped and it would all be over in the matter of minutes. Catherine would be arrested and I would be killed. But if she would have stayed she would have been married to Gabe and I could not let her do something that she was not happy with. But me and her are now together and Gabe will never touch her again.
A Week Later...
A week later we arrived in Denver to start are lives together. We got are stuff in the hotel and decided we didn't want to wait and get married, besides who would show up. None of are family wouldn't ever know where we are at and if we get married before Gabe finds us there is nothing he could legally do to seperate us then. Catherine pulled out a nice out fit and so did I. We got in the car and went to the courthouse to make things offical. But first Catherine and I stopped and bought a cheap ring until we could buy her a real one in a few months. We arrived at the courthouse. We payed for the marriage license and a judge married us there in a court room.
"I Vincent Keller promise to love and protect you from this day forward as your husband, I will stand by you threw sickness and in health threw good times and in bad as long as we both shall live"
"I Catherine Chandler promise to love and protect you from this day as your wife, I will stand by you threw you threw sickness and in health threw good times and in bad as long as we both shall live"
"you may kiss the bride"
Catherine and I then left the courthouse and went straight back to the hotel room. When we arrived I ran ahead of her and unlocked the door, I even opened it. She give me a strange look. We she got to the door I picked her up and carried her to the bed. Where we had a romantic even that night for a small honeymoon. One tomorrow we were going to start looking for house that we could afford for now. So we thought we where going to be able to start a life together anyway. This morning I woke up to find Catherine in the bathroom with a pregnancy test in her hand. She looked up at me.
"this can not be happening"
"what? Its not positive"
"look for yourself"
She threw it at me and went to grab a piece of gum out of her suitcase.
"so it is Catherine we are married"
"it could be Gabe's Vincent"
"can you go to a doctor first, you still have medical insurance"
"okay let me get dressed"
"okay I will go with you"
"and what happens when I am to far long that is not yours Vincent"
"I will be the father of this child no matter what I am your husband"
"I will have to tell Gabe if it is hear me no buts Vincent"
"yeah I hear you go get dressed and grab me a t shirt while you are at it"
I drove Catherine up to the closes walk in clinic up the road. I found a parking spot next to the door and we went in.
"yes may I help you to"
"yes I need to have a pregnancy test done"
"okay name"
"Catherine"
"last name"
"Keller"
"here is a clip board fill it out with all of your medical information and give it to the nurse when she calls you back into the room"
"I will"
Catherine took and seat where there was no one seated. She filled out the forms and give them back to the nurse when was finished. When she sat back down I took her and told her everything would be alright.
"I know Vincent"
We waited for thirty minutes before the nurse to call Catherine's name. When she did we got up and made are way to the back. In the back once the nurse closed the door I took Catherine's jacket, phone even her hand bag she was carrying on this so the nurse could take her weight. The nurse lead us to a exam room at the end of the hall that had a ultrasound machine and everything that was needed for what they would need to day. I looked up and Catherine was now even more nervous her heart beat was off and she was upset. I stood and up and she wrapped her arms around me. Just then, the doctor came in and seen what was going on.
"what is this pregnancy scare not suppose to be happening or something'
"no we found out her father has passed away as of yesterday"
"oh I am very sorry for your loss Mr. and Mrs. Keller"
"thanks me and my father where very close after my mom died when I was nineteen"
"oh dear you have had it rough"
"yes I have"
"okay lets get everything taking of here how late are you"
"one month and two days"
"when was the last you have had blood drawin or donated"
"over a year ago"
"okay that can not be the reason but with your father just passing yesterday okay I am going to do a blood test today but you may be expecting"
The doctor went and got the papers and we went down and they took some blood. Witch was hard Catherine one has rolling veins and after her mom was murder in front of her eyes she has been bad with the sight of blood. I held her hand and kneeled down so she could look at me and not focus on her arm with the needle in it. When they where done we went back up to the room and they came in five minutes later.
"well I do not what to say"
I stood and went to Catherine's side and she took my hand. When the doctor told us she was pregnant we knew the baby was not mine but I would love the child anyway. The OB done a ultrasound to comfirm the tests and the sent her home. Catherine made a appointment for three weeks from now. When we got out of there we went and looked at a couple of houses. We decided on the three bedroom home that had a privacy fence in the backyard so are child would not have to go out side and a not be picked on. It was in a budget so we can pay the bills on it. We went up to the bank and took out the loan and went to put the down payment on it. That night we went out to eat and Catherine was getting to feel more better about the baby and it not being mine. I told her she does not have to tell Gabe we will put my name on the legal documents as the father. Maybe someday we will tell the child about Gabe but for now I am going to be a dad and I will do anything to protect them now. Catherine took on my last name and asked her to. I knew she wanted to but in are past that was not an option for us. There could not have been marriage, a house, or kids. But she told me she is not the girl who need a white pecked fence and big rock on her finger to be happy. But that was after her pregnancy scare we had. Honestly when that timer went off on her phone I hoped that she was pregnant with my child. But at the same I knew it was to risky for with my genes and with me being hunted and everything at that moment it would not have looked good at all on Catherine. But then, I had tried some of the pills that Gabe gave me so we could have a date night once and awhile have at least that part of a normal life together. Then we notice that it was curing me and I wanted that so badly to have a life with her. But if she would not have got the injection we both would have died and at the same time I was caught and taken. When she found me I had no memories of her but I slowly regained them back. When I did get them back I had changed and had lost her to Gabe. But now I have her back and will never let her go again. The next day we where up at the crack of dawn to get something to eat and take showers. We went and had the lights turned on at the new house. After that we packed are clothes back in the suitcases that we used. But we headed down the elevator and when they opened at the bottom level Gabe was standing on the other side. We just pushed him out of the way and headed to the car. In the parking lot he was running after us.
"Vincent no wait in the car please I do not need you getting arrested"
"holler if you need me okay"
"yeah I will just let me take of this"
"I will be in the car"
By this time I had managed to get Catherine a real wedding ring that she loved. I got in the car and cracked the window to hear what they where saying.
"Catherine how could you do this to me we where going to get married"
"Gabe you where forcing me into something I did not want to do"
"and"
"Vincent would never do that to me he would never hurt me like you did he would want me to be happy"
"come with me now why'll you sill have a chance'
"no stop it"
"why?'"
"I don't want to"
"Detective Chandler come with me now"
"It's Keller now we got married a couple of days ago"
"what"
"and we are expecting a baby so if you do not mind"
Catherine hurried to the car and got in. I put my foot down on the gas a hard as I could and got Catherine out of there. We then shortly arrived at are new house and got it set up. Now we need to wait for the one thing that is going to make this family complete, the baby and I can not wait. But with Catherine saying she was pregnant I am afaird that Gabe will sign a warrant or something to take DNA. So he knows for sure it is mine but it is his and I will fight for this to make are family happy.
