Vincent was sat on the sofa staring at his phone hoping to God Catherine would call him back soon, when it had gotten to midnight he decided to ring Cat and find out if she would be home soon but when she didn't answer he phoned the office when no one answered there either he called James.

James was Cat's work colleague they shared the same office and worked in the same cases together, they were partners in the lawyer world, and James had told Vincent that he and Cat left the office an hour ago.

That bit of information was fine; however the next was not, James had told Vincent how Catherine was having a low day that the pressure of getting engaged so close to the miscarriage was getting to her and resulted in her coming on to him out of confusion.


Catherine walked through the streets trying to figure out her next move it was pouring with rain and all she had on was the thin blouse and skirt she'd dressed in the morning. It was now 1am two hours ago she'd been sent a serious blow- could she really believe that Vincent would ever do that to her, but, the things James knew were personal and hadn't been uttered to another soul or so she thought!

Her phone ran for the hundredth time it was Vincent probably checking to make sure she would be home soon, she let it ring Cat couldn't talk to him right now in fear she might do something regretful.

After another half an hour she headed back to her car, feeling cold, wet and very much drained she headed home anxiousness creeping up to her every pore each mile the closer she got.


Finally Vincent heard movement outside the front door and Cat burst in

"Where have you been?" Vincent asked, he'd been so worried about her.

"Walking." She said a little coldly.

"So you haven't been with James then?!" He prodded.

That question rattled Catherine up.

"Why would you ask that?"

"Well you come home late and –"

"You what Vincent? Don't you dare try to make something out of nothing."

"I'm not but you mean to tell me you two didn't share a possible kiss tonight?!"

"Un-believable, when did you sleep with her Vincent?" Cat hadn't planned on quizzing him but right now he was pissing her off.

"What are you talking about?!"

"The girl you slept with when I wouldn't sleep with you! I didn't want to believe it but I come home and you question me about what I've been up to- that speaks a guilty mind."

"I do not have a guilty mind- Catherine, I have no idea what has gotten into you, if you weren't ready to get engaged you could have told me I would have understood, but to accuse me of this and tell James about the baby, I thought Tess who is both of our best friend was the only one you told! But no, you told someone I barely know!"

Cat had enough of this- she couldn't listen anymore to how he was trying to blame her for everything, her plan was to come in and tell Vincent what James had said and ask why he would say it, but the way he had questioned her when she came in made her lose all rationalization.

Catherine thought for a second.

"I can't do this right now; I'm going to stay with Tess and J.T!" She stated.

With that she stormed to their room and packed up some things, Vincent tried to stop her but it was all in vain. They both loved each other but weeks of tension due to not seeing each other much had blown up when James had stirred up this whole scenario, both their anger blinded them in realising that James was at the heart of this whole fiasco.


Meanwhile a young brooding man was sat in the dark watching the scenes in Catherine and Vincent's apartment unfold on his computer screen!

James was a cunning man; Catherine had never suspected when he used his kid brother's friend to set up cameras around her home, she just thought he was there to install some cable or something.

He had been obsessed with Catherine the first day he met her a year ago, but she never returned his affections- she was too loved up, he was changing that. At first he would just follow her or take photo's she didn't know about, as time went on he wanted more, he wanted to be able to touch her beautiful velvet skin freely.

Getting rid of Vincent was the ticket to do so!

A smirk rose on James' faces when he watched Cat storm out of her home, leaving Vincent stood alone and confused.

Yes soon he would have his woman!


J.T and Tess woke up to loud persistent knocking; the rushed out of bed and found a sobbing Catherine, they welcomed her in and tried to calm her down as she explained all about her horrible night.

After an exhausting explanation they got Cat settled down comfortably on the sofa and tried to go back to sleep even though they just had a mountain load of information dumped on them.

Their morning was spent tip toeing around Cat.

"Cat would you like some tea?" J.T asked.

"No, I'm good thanks; I'm sorry you two about coming here so late and disturbing you with all my problems!" Catherine sighed and tried in vain to stop yet even more tears she has had enough of being a crying wimp.

"It's okay." Tess and J.T said in unison. "But" J.T continued "I know I haven't known Vincent as long as you guys- but I have known him a really long time and honestly Cat I don't believe he'd ever step out like that. He worships you too much to even consider it!"

"I agree with J.T – Cat, Vincent would kiss the ground you walk if you asked him to!" Tess piped in.

Cat looked at them both. "Thanks guys, I promise to make up for imposing on you guys, I have to go to work right now but I'd like to take you both out to dinner later!"

"It's no problem and Thanks." J.T said.


Catherine got into the office and Mr Lowen her horribly arrogant boss dumped her duties on her for the day.

It had reached lunchtime and even though she had been distracted after last night she had managed to get all her jobs done without any problems until-

"Cat, I need to talk to you!"

Crap, it was James- one of the last people she wanted to see right now!

"James I'm busy right now!"

"Cat listen please, I need to talk to you- It's important and I know you're not busy, you went on lunch 5 minutes ago. Please just have lunch with me?"

He looked at her waiting for her reply. 'Just keep your cool James' was the mantra in his head.

"Well….."
