Hey guys I know its been awhile since I updated this story and I'm sorry for that but When I started WMN and could it be? I kept having writers block for this so I put it on hold...until now
Here is chapter 8 hope you enjoy and please review :) x
"Hey what are doing here?" Catherine asked her eyes still a little wide
"Hey Cat I ah I need your help" heather said taking a deep breath
She remained silent as her eyes travelled to her side and cats eyes followed close behind and she released a slight gasp
"It's ok sweetheart" heather whispered as a child who couldn't have been anymore than 1 and half walk out from behind her leg and stood by her side
"Catherine I'd like you to meet Ali melony chandler ...your niece" heather said holding her daughters hand And Catherine eyes Welled up...from anger, excitement, confusion and every other emotion you could imagine as she stared down at the little girl who was the spitting image of there mother
Catherine covered her mouth in disbelief and looked back to Vincent who was wearing the same wide eyed look she was earlier
As Catherine looked up at her younger sister she stepped aside so they could come in and rose her index finger
"Just give me a second" She whispered as she closed the door and practically ran to bathroom
"Catherine..." Vincent called after her just as the door slammed shut
Vincent sat there for a minute in an awkward silence not quiet sure what to say or do so he rose off the couch and walked toward heather putting out his hand
"Hi I'm Vincent, Catherine's boyfriend it's nice to meet you" he said as he shook her hand and she replied with a sheepish smile
"It's Nice to meet you Too, I'm Heather, the sister"
Just then Ali tugged on her mothers jeans "mommy is aunty cat not happy too see us" Ali whispered as her eyes began to water and heather dropped to her eye level
"No, no of coarse she's happy to see us she's just a little surprised" heather consoled her daughter and wrapped her arms around her
Vincent took and deep breath as heather looked up at him with tear filled eyes
"Am...Could you just wait right here, I'll be...I'll be right back" he said pointing to the spot heather was standing at
She nod her head and Vincent walked toward the bathroom and knocked on the door
"Catherine, it's Vincent"
he slowly opened the door to find her sitting in the bathtub, her head buried in her hands
He closed the door behind him and walked toward the tub kneeling beside her he placed his right hand on the back of her head and she looked up him her eyes puffy and red
"Vincent" she said in a whisper as
tears streamed down her face
"What am I suppose to do?" She asked in a sob and he pressed his lips to the side her head
"Catherine she's your sister you need to go out there and talked to her, from what you told me you and her were pretty close before she went off to collage and right now it looks like she needs you" he stroked her hair and wiped away her tears
"Vincent I should've protected her...after our mom died she said she was feeling lonely and didn't want to go back to school but I made her...I pushed her before she was ready and now look at what's happened"
She paused before continuing "she became reckless and had a baby for crying out loud, shes twenty years old and she's a mom" Catherine took a shuddering breath as Vincent leant over the tub and wrapped his arms around her
When he pulled away he lightly traced his hand down her right arm
"Will you stay tonight" she asked in a whisper and he nod his head
"Of coarse but right now I think there are two very important people out there waiting for you" he said softly and she nod her head, gripping the sides of the tub she rose onto her feet, placing her hands on Vincent shoulders as she got out of the tub and straightened out her clothes she walked to the door, Vincent following close behind
When she opened the door and stepped out Catherine saw heather standing by the couch
While She and Vincent had been in the bathroom Ali had fallen asleep in her moms arms so heather laid her down on the couch
Vincent moved quietly grabbing his jacket from the table and cleared his throat walking over to stand by Catherine's side
"Well I am going to give you lady's some space" he bent his head and brushed there lips together
"I love you...be back soon" he whispered careful not to wake Ali as she kissed him back replying
"love you too"
he smiled at both ladies as he picked up his bag, throwing it over his shoulder he walked out the door leaving the two sisters to talk
"Vincent seems like a nice guy" heather whispered as she sat at the bottom of the couch and covered her daughter with a light blanket
"Yeah he is"
Catherine replied and pursed her lips together as she walked into the kitchen heather following close behind
"Why didn't you tell me?" Catherine whispered as she leant her back against the countertop, her arms folded across her chest
"I didn't know what to say!" Heather release a sighed and shrugged her shoulders "I didn't want you to be disappointed in me, my entire life I have looked up to you, wanted to be like you and then mom died" heather wiped away a few stray tears
Catherine tilted her head to the side as she looked at her little sister
"It was a frat party" she whispered looking over at her daughter asleep on the couch "if you were wondering"
Heather looked back to Catherine and continued
"I was upset and angry and...and confused I just wanted the pain to go away" she whispered as tears streamed down both there faces
"But I don't regret it, I don't regret her" she paused before continuing
"you mighten know this and you might think that I was too young and stupid but Catherine ali's the best thing that ever happened to me and I love her more than anything in This world and I'm sorry, sorry for being such a failure" heather began to sob as Catherine wrapped her arms around her little sister
"No heather your not a failure" Catherine whispered in her ear "I'm sorry I should've been there for you after mom died when you said you were lonely i shouldn't have pushed before you were ready"
as Catherine pulled away she brushed her thumb across heathers cheek wiping away the tears
"It's late"Catherine cupped her sisters face
"why don't you stay tonight and we can talk more in the morning" Catherine whispered and heather nod her head walking over to couch she lifted Ali into her arms and followed Catherine as she led them to the spare bedroom
Pulling back the quilt heather laid Ali down on the bed then laid beside her as Catherine pulled the quilt over them
"See you in the morning Heth" Catherine whispered and kissed the top of her head before walking toward the door and stopping in the doorway, she smiled at her sister before switching off the light and closing the door.
Catherine walked down the hallway and into the living room climbing onto the couch she laid her head on the cushion and closed her eyes
It could've been minutes or hours later when she felt a pair of arms lift her against there chest and bring her into the bedroom
"Vincent..." She whispered As he laid her down on the bed
"Yeah..I'm here" he whispered and laid down beside her gathering her into his arms, she snuggled closer to him As his arms instinctively tightened, she lift her head up rubbing there noses together and lazily planted a kiss on his lips as she fell into a deep slumber.
