I do not own Beauty and the Beast.

Hallo, you guys! I really love Catherine and Vincent. They have so much chemistry together.

Here is a little something I wrote.

I hope you like it. :)

Catherine woke up, gasping for air. She was in a sitting position and observed her surroundings. She was home in her apartment and felt tears rolling down her face.

"Mom." she whispered.

She closed her eyes for a couple of moments, trying to forget the images of her mom being murdered. But it was no use. It's been more than 9 years and she could still remember every little detail of that horrible night.

She shook her head furiously and got up. Catherine sighed deeply and went to her bathroom to wash her face. She walked back into her bed room and looked at the clock. It was 2:30 AM. It was then, that she decided to do something about it. She wasn't sure what she was going to find there, but she just needed to go there. Even if it was just for one last time. She needed to be there and maybe she could get the closure that she so desperately wanted. And needed.

Walking out her room, she wondered if she should tell her sister about it. While standing in front of her room, she decided to leave a note for her. Catherine walked in and left the note on her sister's night stand. She gave her a kiss on the forehead and walked out her room. She went back into her room to change and packed a back pack. Before walking out the front door , Catherine grabbed her car keys and phone.

She got in her car and drove away, thinking about the people in her life. She had gotten to know Vincent well. Very well. For more than 6 months, he had been helping her with her cases. She had very strong feelings for him, but she hadn't act on them because she felt that she wasn't ready yet. It didn't matter to her that he wasn't 100 % human anymore. He was Vincent, the man that saved her life more times than she could count. Of course, her heart seemed to race every time she saw him. But still, she knew that it wasn't wise to act on her feelings for him. Not yet anyway.

She sighed deeply and drove passed his place, but after a couple of minutes she stopped her car and drove back. Catherine stayed in her car and waited. She waited patiently for him. She knew that he would come. She knew that he would sense her. She knew that he'd notice that she needed him.

It was almost 3 AM, but Vincent couldn't sleep. He dragged himself out of bed and splashed some water on his face. Catherine. She meant so much to him. She had the power to wake up feelings in him. Feelings that he thought he'd never have again. Feelings that could be wonderful, but also very painful if they weren't answered back. She was 'the' beauty and he was the Beast. He laughed at himself and told himself that she didn't feel the same way as he did for her!

He wasn't sure if he was imagining it. But there were times, he saw something in her eyes. Like she cared for him, but more than a friend. Was that really possible?

Vincent cannot forget the first time, she touched his face. The feeling of her soft hands on his skin, made his cheeks heat up tremendously. Like they were on fire! And the look in her eyes were so convincing. And pleading.

But he didn't have the chance to linger on it too long, because she was here! She was close. Catherine. He jumped up from his chair and almost ran to see her. The closer he got to her, the faster his legs moved. His heart raced, almost beating out of his chest. He could hear her breathing and also heard her heartbeat. He took in her scent and almost lost control.

The second she saw him, she jumped out of her car. He saw that she had been crying, making him feel an upcoming rage.

She almost ran towards him, but stopped right in front of him. She looked him in the eyes; two pair of hazel eyes locking on one another.

"What's wrong?" he asked with his gruff voice.

A tear escaped her eye and she whispered." A lot, but I do not want to get into all that. Would you just hold me, Vincent?"

That was all it took. He wrapped his strong arms around her and held her close. She rested her head on his chest and that's when the dam broke. She sobbed uncontrollably. He closed his eyes and tried to soothe her, by running his hand through her gorgeous hair.

Catherine kept crying and after she had calmed down a bit, she said those words. The words that made his heart drop. "I need to sort things out for myself, so I will be going away for a little while. But I will be back, Vincent. I promise."

Should he go along with her?
