Heather was the one who rudely interrupted their 'activities'. She was very worried about Cat, but she told her not to.
"Someone is with me, looking out for me. Don't worry, little sis." She said, while watching Vincent. He was studying one of the files that they found in JT's room.
"Who?" she asked curiously.
"Someone, okay. I cant tell you his na…" she said but got cut off by Heather.
"Oh my God! Is it your medical examiner friend… whats his name? Oh yes, Evan?" she asked.
Cat laughed loudly, making Vincent look up from his files.
"No, not him! I really gotta go, sweetie." She said.
From the other line, Cat suddenly heard Heather gasp out loud.
"Oh my God! Were you two making out just now? Is that the reason why you didn't pick up your phone immediately? OMG! Were you 'busy' with him. Oh please tell, is
he a very good kisser?" Heather rambled.
"No! We we w... Heather, stop it!" Cat exclaimed. Her cheeks have turned crimson red by now.
Heather smiled wickedly and stated." Remember what you told me: Keep it SAFE, sis!"
"Heather! Why you little…" she exclaimed, but her younger sister had hung up her phone, laughing wickedly.
Cat groaned and shook her head.
"What's the matter?" Vincent asked.
"No, nothing. Heather is just being... Heather that's all." She replied.
"Shall we?" he asked.
"Yes, we shall." Cat responded.

Cat and Vincent went back to the warehouse and grabbed the stuff that they would need for their journey. They were planning to go to the addresses to find JT. ROADTRIP!
They had been driving for 10 hours straight, when they decided to take a rest and eat some dinner. The drive was nice up until now. They had been talking a lot. About her family and about his. Vincent still desperately wanted to tell her how he felt about her, but he was waiting still. For what, he did not know.
Cat didn't feel rejected anymore, because in that kiss she discovered what she desperately needed to know. It didn't matter anymore that he hasn't told her yet. The important thing was, that she already found out without him using any words.
Now and again, they stole glances from each other, making Cat feel like there were butterflies in her tummy, dancing around. She really felt like a teenager. A teenager in love.
"Hey, this seems like a good place."Vincent said.
Cat saw a Bed and Breakfast."Okay, this will do then." She said.
Stepping out of the car, she said."I will check in and get 2 rooms. Will you take care of the luggage?"
He nodded in agreement, so she walked inside the building. Cat had taken care of her part and was waiting for Vincent.
"Okay, what is taking him so long?" she muttered.
It was already dark out, but she still could see clearly. She couldn't believe this was happening in the parking lot! Vincent was in his Beast form and was fighting more than 5 men! She saw and heard how the men were screaming from pain… It was the most horrific sight and sound that she'd witnessed. Cat had tears in her eyes and grabbed her gun. Firing a few bullets in the air, made Vincent stop with what he was doing!
The men who were able to do so, immediately got up and tried running away from him.
Cat walked closer to Vincent and whispered."It's okay. They're gone. And I am here."
His chest was still heaving, while he was still in his Beast form. She walked closer to him, till she was able to touch his face. Cat cupped his face and made him look at her.
"It's safe again. Relax." She whispered.
Within seconds, she saw his face change back to his human form.
"Vincent." she said.
He heard how her heart was speeding up. In her eyes, he saw only love…
They were gazing into each other eyes. And just as he was about to say something, the owner of the Bed and Breakfast walked out to give Cat their keys.
After Cat accepted the keys, they silently walked towards their rooms. Their rooms were next from each other.
When they reached their destination, Cat turned and worriedly asked."Who were they?"
"My guess is that they were Z's men." He answered, sighing deeply.
"Did they say anything to you?"she asked.
"Nope. They surrounded me and tried to capture me." he replied.
It was then, when Cat saw the deep gash on his arm.
"Oh my, Vincent! You're hurt! Let me see that." She exclaimed.
Looking at it closely, she saw that he was bleeding a lot.
"Come inside my room. I must take care of it." She stated.
Vincent followed her inside and she said."Sit on the chair, please?"
He did as she asked and looked around. The room was very nice and neat. It was a girlie room. PINK.
Cat walked out of the bathroom, with a first aid kit in her hands. She grabbed a chair and sat in front of him, inspecting the deep wound.
She grabbed a scissor. And just as she was about to cut the part of his T-shirt where his deep gash was in his upper arm, he stopped her.
"Let me make it easier for you." He whispered and pulled his T-shirt over his head.
Cat swallowed hard, seeing him shirtless. She knew that she should be looking at his gash, but instead her eyes locked on his chest… and his six pack…
She almost went berserk. Vincent had purposely done it to tease her. He wickedly smiled and placed his finger on her chin, making her look him in the eyes.
"Cat, I don't think my gash is on my chest…" he whispered.
Her heart began to speed up, while her cheeks were flushed. Avoiding his gaze, she began working on his wound. He was watching her closely. Very closely. She was trying to concentrate on patching him up the best that she could.
"I'm not a doctor like you. So forgive me if I don't do it properly." She said, her voice very shaky.
Still watching her, he smiled."It's okay. I'm sure that you'll do well." He said with his throaty, deep voice.
A shiver went up and down her spine, hearing him say that.
'God! Please let me be able to control myself.' She thought.
He was still watching her and she almost shouted.' Stop looking at me like that! You make me nervous!'
But instead, her hands began to tremble while patching him up. He saw it and a wicked smile crept on his face.
"That really isn't funny, Vincent." she accused.
"What?" he said, acting innocent.
"You know what." She stated.
"I really do not know what you're talking about, Cat." He lied, while he smirked.
Cat so wanted to shut him up by crashing her lips onto his, taking his breath away... But that was such a bad idea! Vincent was injured. She had to take care of his deep gash.
She sighed deeply and tried to concentrate on her task. He didn't even say 'ouch' one single time. He was still watching her intensively, but she tried ignoring him. She thought back on the day that she listened to JT's last message.
When she thought that something had happened to Vincent, she needed to open up and tell him how she felt. But when he gave her the cold shoulder, she didn't want to tell him anymore. He was acting like such a jerk, but he only did that cause he wanted to protect her.
Was this the right time to tell him though? It sure felt like it. Should she now tell him how she felt about him? That she couldn't live a day without him anymore? That she was scared to death to discover one day that he was captured by Muirfield? That he meant the world to her? That she constantly worried about him? That she loved him somuch, that it almost hurt her physically when he was not with her? Should she? Really?
Will she?
Please review?
Ruby.
