Note: Hi guys! I got so embarassed when I realized I hadn't posted the final chapter of this story yet. Stupid, stupid me. Here it is. I hope you like it! X.

I got lost in your brown eyes.

All of her co-workers noticed the sparkle in Catherine's eyes the next morning. Nick wasn't sure why. The first thing that was on his mind was that Lou asked Catherine to marry him. Then again, there was no ring, and Nick thought Catherine and Lou had been having some sort of fight. After all, when she'd been put on a case with him the night before, she hadn't been happy at all. After their cases for the night had been given he followed Catherine to the sink where she put her coffee cup and said: "So, what are you all happy and sparkling about?"

"Huh?" Catherine tried to put up an innocent act, but she knew Nick would be able to see right through her. He chuckled and replied: "I was almost thinking you and Vartann were getting married or something."

The look of total shock on Catherine's face was a sign for Nick that he was quite wrong. She slapped him lightly on his arm and said: "No, no, no, not at all. Please Nicky, I'm really too old for that. But we're doing good, very good."

"I'm glad. You deserve to be happy, Cath. And, just for the record. You're not old."

When Catherine arrived home that night, she was surprised to find a vase filled with pink roses in her living room. She knew they were from Lou; he was the only one who knew she liked the pink ones much more than the reds.

"Lou?"

She heard a voice coming from upstairs yelling: "I'm in the bathroom!"

She raised her eyebrows in curiosity as she took off the heels she'd been wearing and locked the front door. She then made her way upstairs, wondering why the lights were all off. "Lou, why is it so dark in here?"

"Come here!"

Catherine made her way to the only room that seemed to have light, as rays were coming out of under the door. She got slightly blinded as she opened the door. She chuckled as she found Lou's hands covering his eyes as he said: "I've got a surprise."

"Aha. Well I'd love to see it… But something's kind of blocking my view."

"I know. You're ready?"

"Yeah."

Lou got rid of his hands in front of her eyes and moved his hands so they were encircling her waist as Catherine looked at the bathroom. Lou'd been placing candles around her bathtub, which was filled with steaming water and bubbles that smelled like vanilla and strawberries. "Lou… This is so sweet! How did you manage to do this so quick?"

He shrugged and smiled. "I'm trained to do things fast."

"Lou…" She turned around to face him and threw her hands around his neck. "This is the sweetest thing someone has ever done for me… Thank you so much."

Their lips collided in a sweet and soft kiss. Lou definitely did want to continue it, but he had prepared a bath for the woman that was currently kissing his lips. He didn't want her to bathe in cold water. He broke their kiss and said: "Honey, I'd love to keep on kissing you. But… The water's getting cold. You should get in there."

He let go of her and was about to walk away when he heard Catherine say: "Leaving so soon?"

Lou turned around and wanted to tell her she was supposed to take a bath and relax as he saw her removing her jeans. He cleared his throat before saying: "Well, ehm… You should relax."

"I'm perfectly capable of relaxing when you're around." She unbuttoned the first couple of buttons of her blouse before removing it, standing in front of Lou in a light blue, lace bra with matching panties.

"Jesus, Cath…"

"Come. Join me." She unclasped her bra before turning her back towards Lou. She knew she was driving him insane and she loved it. She tipped her feet into the tub, feeling it tingle as it came in contact with the hot water. She turned her body halfway to face Lou and said: "You're coming?"

When she pushed her panties down and stepped out of them, Lou had had enough. He untied his tie as quick as he could, while kicking off his shoes. He undid his belt, got out of his pants and jacket while never taking his eyes of Catherine, who was letting out a slight moan as she let her body fell down in the hot water. She was covered in bubbles as she closed her eyes. "Damn woman…" Lou muttered as he was finally able to get out of his boxers and made his way over the tub.

Catherine's eyes were still closed as she said: "Knew you'd come eventually."

"You're driving me nuts, woman." He stepped into the tub behind Catherine, who allowed him to sit behind her so she could rest her body against his.

"This is perfect, Lou."

"So are you."

His hands rested around her waist, fighting the urge to move his fingers further down her body. They sat for a bit, and Catherine was definitely relaxed, her eyes closed and a content sigh escaping her mouth every once in a while.

The relaxation soon turned into excitement when she felt Lou's finger brush against her clit. She thought it was an innocent move at first. That was until she felt them again. Lou stroke her opening lightly as she opened her eyes, trying to turn around with losing contact. She sat on the opposite of him as she looked at him, his thumb still touching her folds. A look of pure innocence was on Lou's face, but Catherine didn't buy it.

She bit her lip and smiled as she said: "You're such a tease."

"Oh, am I?"

He trusted his fingers inside here, pulling her closer as he did so while Catherine let out a load moan. Lou's fingers moved up and down as Catherine fought the urge to cum right there. "God, Lou, that feels so good…"

Catherine knew she was reaching her climax as she said: "Lou, honey… Let's move to bed. Please? I want to do this together."

Lou blew out the candles before following Catherine to her bedroom.

He found her on her bed, naked, eying him as he entered the room. "You took long enough. C'm here."

He didn't let her say that again as he crawled onto the bed, immediately covering her body with his. "You're so beautiful, Catherine."

Lou didn't let her reply as he roughly kissed her lips, enjoying the taste of her tongue as their bodies were warming up towards each other. He broke their kiss for a moment, panting heavily as he looked at the woman beneath him. Her angelic strawberry blonde hair that fell under her shoulders in loose curls on to her pale, freckled, smooth skin.

Catherine took advantage of the moment as she managed to tumble Lou around, sitting on top of him. He looked so handsome and so beautiful. She moved her head to his neck and kissed him before she bit him lightly. "I really, really want you inside of me now."

She looked into his eyes, finding all the permission she needed in there. Lou cupped her ass as she sat up before she let him fill her, immediately letting out a moan of satisfaction.

Lou's hands moved to her waist as she moved on top of him and he went along with her movements. She pressed harder, wanting him deeper as she moaned his name.

Before she knew what was happening, his body moved her around again so he was on top of her, making sure their bodies never let go of each other. He trusted inside her, slowly at first, before roughly pushing himself deeper. "Jesus, Lou…"

They didn't take too long before reaching their climax, both panting heavily afterwards, trying to catch their breaths.

"I love you, Lou."

"I love you too, Catherine."

He pulled himself out of her and rolled around to lie next to her, her body immediately searching for his warmth again. Lou's arm rested around Catherine's waist as her head rested on his chest. "Things will only get better from now on, won't they?"

Lou knew it was more of a statement instead of a question, but he did answer her. "I'm very sure they will. I've got Las Vegas' finest in my bed. That's all I need. You're all I need."

The end.
