A/N: So here is the next chapter sorry for the wait, this one is much longer than the last and I think the longest chapter so far, I haven't been able to up-load as frequently as I'd like but I'm doing my best- RL keeps getting in the way :(


Disclaimer: I do not own these characters, I'm just borrowing them!


Vincent's plan of surprising Cat didn't go quite to plan as they both got super busy with work, that was a blessing in disguise though since he now had his plan, it was a Saturday – Cat's birthday none the less - and both he and Catherine had the day off.

Vincent had been up for a couple of hours and had created a masterpiece in the kitchen; he just hoped it tasted as good as it looked.


Catherine turned over in the bed expecting to find her handsome beau sprawled beside her, instead she was greeted with cold crumpled sheets, and then she was hit with the smell of fresh bread (her most favourite thing in the world other than Vincent). She rose herself from the bed and padded down the hall in her silky lavender nightdress. Cat wasn't the type of girl, who just wore sexy, sultry lingerie to bed, but she'd been waiting for Vincent- he ended up working late – as the clock struck 2am she gave into sleep. So she was sorely disappointed when he wasn't beside her this morning, especially since they hadn't made love since last week and that had been the first time since the miscarriage – Damn their crazy work life .

As she walked into the kitchen Vincent had his back turned towards her filling mugs of coffee, he swirled around and sucked in a huge sharp breath when he saw her.

"Oh, look at you!" Vincent said breathlessly biting on his lip.

Catherine giggled "That's the idea".

He put the mugs down and crept over to Cat; he placed his hands around her waist and gently pulled her toward him.

"Mmm, I thought it was your birthday and yet it feels like mine right now, happy birthday my love." He bent down and breathed the scent of her neck whilst planting soft sensual kisses there.

"Hmmm, thank you! Well you could have had your present last night but I accidently fell asleep." She blushed. "So I'll give it to you now and since it's my birthday you'll just have to think of a way to make it up to me!" She winked.

Vincent groaned as he pulled her even closer (they were so close not even a piece of paper could've fit between them) the fabric of her nightdress allowed her to feel his already hard manhood, she rubbed her-self against him and if it was even possible she could've sworn he became bigger – Catherine loved that she could do that to him, he always reacted to her and that knowledge excited Cat to no end.

As Catherine's hands roamed his body, Vincent was having an internal struggle- he had a plan to follow through with today but who was he to deny her, to deny himself, he lifted her off the floor and carried her to the bathroom.

"I have plans for you today so you're gonna have to give me my 'present' in the shower!" He whispered to her as he placed her back on her feet.

She smiled up at him and raised her eyebrows at him wondering what his plan was, before Cat could even ask he cut her off with a rough deep kiss. He peeled her nightdress off slowly and caressed her body with his hands and lips, Catherine conveniently hadn't put any underwear on, Vince growled into her mouth when he'd realised this.

Vincent tore at his own clothes desperate to be inside of her, he hopped in the shower and helped her in too; Vincent lifted Cat back up, she wrapped her smooth thighs around his hard muscled waist, he pushed her up against the shower wall and entered her. He was rough- but not hurtful, it was exactly what she needed, what they both needed! They kissed each other frantically and at one point Vincent's thrusts were so hard and quick their lips could barely touch. It was hard, fast, primal bliss! With one last push both parties grunted and moaned, Vincent released Cat – his legs no longer able to support them both- she slid down his body, they clung to each other and sunk to the floor of the tub letting the shower wash away evidence from their lovemaking.

After the two lovers reached coherent thoughts again Vincent shut the water off and gave Cat a set of instructions for the day's activities.

Her instructions were to wear something comfortable, that she wouldn't mind getting greasy and to be downstairs waiting in their apartment lobby for 10:30.

This made her really suspicious- what an earth would she be doing that involved grease that he thought could interest her in any way?!


She was waiting in the lobby when a very smart dressed man had a piece of paper with her name written on it, she walked over to him.

"Are you Miss Chandler?" He asked.

"Yes I am!" Cat replied cautiously.

"Excellent my name is David; your boyfriend Vincent has hired me to be your personal driver for today." He smiled warmly at her as to assure her.

Luckily for him she believed what he was saying; Catherine was no damsel in distress when it came to protecting herself.

David escorted Cat into a rather extravagant limo and drove her to the unknown destination.

When she stepped out of the car and walked into the little shop she had no idea what to expect until the receptionist spoke to her.

"Hello, my name is Cath-"

"-Erine Chandler, we've been expecting you!" The receptionist cut in. "Mr Keller was very specific with his instructions, please follow me!"

Cat walked into a room that was lit with candles and she could smell massage oils. 'Oh that's what Vincent meant by getting greasy!'

She was instructed to lie down on her front with a towel covering her.

During her time at the spa Catherine was treated to a full body massage and a pedicure and a manicure.

After she was done the girls at the shop handed Catherine a coral pink summer dress and white pumps to get changed into.


After her appointment David drove her to a posh restaurant, when she walked inside the host approached her, he took her to a table at the back and handed her a glass of champagne.

2 minutes later Heather and her dad walked in.

"Cattttt!" Heather squealed, and her father scolded Heather as did all the other customers.

Catherine stood up and embraced her family in a big bear hug.

The Chandlers enjoyed a great meal with 5 star service Cat felt like a movie star she had everyone at her beck-an-call.


It was now 2pm and as much as Cat had enjoyed all the things Vincent had done for her she really wished she was spending her birthday with him.

Her next stop was a boutique one that Heather would die to shop in! When Catherine entered she saw Tess standing there with a huge smile on her face.

Her next set of instructions as dutifully delivered by Tess were to find any dress, shoes and accessories her little heart desired and not to dare look at any price tags, that had been covered.

After hours of shopping Catherine finally chose a lavender purple (much like the colour of her nightdress this morning) knee length dress with a sweetheart neckline that hugged her tightly showing off her curves, matching shoes and a silver bracelet, necklace and silver diamond hoops were chosen.


Catherine was whisked back to the salon where she had her make-up and hair done. Her make-up was simple light and natural since she was extremely beautiful any way, her hair was done in soft curls that gave her long hair a slight bounce. Cat was helped in to her dress and jewellery and then escorted back to the limo by David.

"David?" Cat asked shyly.

"Yes Miss Catherine."

"How many more stops after this?" Cat was extremely grateful for the day her wonderful man had given her but she missed him dearly and needed to be near him.

"This is the last stop Miss." David stated.

Catherine sighed in relief- That meant she was one step closer to Vincent, what an earth had he got up his sleeve?! She fiddled with her newly brought bracelet as she nervously waited to find out what her last surprise was.

The car came to a stop.

One more second and she'd find out what the hell was going on!

She couldn't wait any longer!
