**I DO NOT OWN THIS SHOW OR THE CHARACTERS IN THE SHOW, I AM JUST BORROWING THEM**

-House Boat-

"Actually, Catherine and I were…"

"I was just leaving." Said Catherine in an awkward tone. Her and Vincent both were blushing. Catherine turned to Vincent.

"I guess I'll see you around?"

"Oh, uhm..yeah!"

"Okay." Catherine turned towards the smiling JT and Tess, grinned, and walked out of the house boat.

"I think I had best go with her. I'll call you later or something." Said Tess to JT. Her and JT kissed each other goodnight and Tess ran out the door, yelling at Catherine to "Wait up!" JT finally looks back at Vincent to see him smiling and smirking about him kissing Tess. "Well, How was it?"

"Forget about my date with Tess. Did I just see you and Catherine…kissing?"

"Uhh…yes, yes you did." said Vincent while he acted embarrassed and was smiling. "I can't help but think that you are going to interrogate me about why Catherine was over here, so I'll grab you a beer."

"Good call, Vincent."

-The Awkward Drive-

"Will you stop looking at me like that?"

"Like what? I am curious to know what that was back there. Come on Cat! Enlighten me."

"We kissed…..It was just a kiss."

"It looked like if me and JT didn't show up when we did, that we would have walked into something more. Cat what were you thinking? I thought you were upset about Gabe?"

"Tess…I am upset for hurting him. I didn't want it to be like this. Its just…I don't love him like that."

"Well isn't that obvious? Haha…." Catherine gives Tess a hard look for her sarcasm. "Okay! Sorry! Damn!"

"Look, I think I should go see Gabe and try to explain…"

"Explain what? 'Oh hi Gabe! Came over to tell you I'm sorry for hurting you. I kissed Vincent! Okay! Great! Thanks! Bye!'"

"Tess I'm serious! You know me better than anybody. I'm not like that. I want to see if he is okay."

"Alright, but what is Vincent going to say when he finds out you went to see Gabe?"

"Vincent will be fine. He will understand that I am trying to do the right thing. Its not like I'm going to stay there with him."

"Okay. Let me know how it goes."

-Gabe's Apartment-

Catherine arrives at Gabe's apartment. As she knocks on the door, it slightly opens. "Gabe?" Something didn't seem right. The place was ransacked! Gabe wasn't there. Catherine begins to dial Tess. RING!...RING!..."Vargas!"

"Tess…something's wrong. Gabe is missing."

"Whoa whoa whoa! Slow down….what happened?"

"I think Gabe has been kidnapped!"

"Okay…be there in a sec."

"Thanks Tess!"

-House Boat-

"I'm going to ask her JT."

"Wait…your going to what?! Don't you think you should wait? I mean…"

"JT I love her….I'm in love with her. Have been for what seems like years. I'm ready to do this…..I'm going to ask her to marry me."

"Vincent I'm all for you and Cat being together and everything, but you need to think about it first. Don't rush into it. I mean she just got out of her relationship with Gabe and….well…it just seems too soon."

Vincent pulls out a little velvet black box from his pocket. He opens it to reveal a sparkling, sterling silver diamond ring. JT's jaw drops. "I bought it to propose to her the night we planned to go on a romantic camping trip after I finished those missions for who we now know as Bob. Guess it didn't work out that way."

"Again, I'm all for being your support but please…wait until she is ready." BUZZ BUZZ! "It's Catherine….Hello?"

"JT I need your help with something."

"Okay?"

"Gabe has been kidnapped and I need you to track his phone. Can you do that for me?"

"Yeah. Sure. I'll be right on it."

"Thanks JT!"

JT hangs up the phone, then turns to Vincent.

"Well that proves that I was right about waiting. She is at Gabe's and he's been kidnapped. She wants me to track his phone."

"Okay. I'm going to head over to Gabe's and see if Catherine wants me to help."

"Remember what I said about waiting."

"Okay JT."

-Gabe's Apartment-

After constant searches of Gabe's apartment, neither Tess , nor Catherine could find a bit of evidence leading to Gabe's whereabouts. It seemed almost hopeless. Then there was a knock at the door. "Hey! I came as soon as I heard. You okay?"

"JT told you, didn't he? You were right, he has a big mouth. And I'll be fine."

"You sure about that? Your heart is racing."

"Vincent…I'll be fine. I appreciate you being concerned and everything, and I know it must be hard for you to be here right now, but I have to find Gabe. This is all my fault! I'm responsible for whatever happens to him."

"It's not your fault Catherine. You couldn't have done anything to stop it from happening."

"Then why do I feel like its my fault? Anyways, lets get back on track, we got to find him."

"Okay…."

-Dungeon-

"Hello, Gabe. So nice that you could wake up to join me for dinner. Hows your head by the way? Are you feeling groggy? Maybe some short-term affecting you?"

"Where am I?"

"Oh don't you worry about that. We have guests due to be here soon. Very soon." Sam laughs a cruel, yet evil giggle.

(Will Catherine and the others find Gabe before its too late? Will Vincent and Catherine continue their relationship where they left off? Find out in Chapter 3. Please leave your reviews. Thanks!)
