Beauty & the Beast doesn't belong to me, if does Jay Ryan would be shirtless a lot more. And Cw you better get us season 2. English is not my first language, so any typo or grammar mistakes (I don't use google), please let me know.

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.(Lao Tzu)"

In the next morning, Catherine woke up lying on the living room carpet; she looked around and didn't see Vincent. At first, she was confused. What she was doing in the living room, with nothing but Vincent's shirt? Then images of last night popped in her head…they had a chocolate party and they sure had a lot of fun doing it.

"Good morning" she heard Vincent's voice and when she lifted her head a little to look at him, she realized how much fun they had had.

"Oh my god, we did all of this?" Catherine she stood up and walked towards Vincent who had a broom and a bucket in his hand and of course, a naughty smile on his face; which Catherine pretended not to notice.

He shrugged "Well, it wasn't Muirfield"

She looked around there was chocolate almost everywhere…and Catherine's face was turning red.

"You know you have to stop this, walking around just with my shirt, it's so tempting…Especially when you are embarassed" Vincent said grabbing her into his arms, kissing her lips.

"It's not funny!" she murmured in his lips.

"Oh I'm sure it is and it was" he said laughing "In fact, I don't know what was my favorite part, maybe the tub and I certainly don't mind going back in a few" he winked at her and Catherine hit his arm playfully.

"First we need to clean up this house or we will be eaten by bees and ants"

"That means we can go to the tub when we are done?"

This time Catherine was the one who winked "Maybe."

After an hour and had eaten breakfast Vincent and Catherine were in each other's arms. The bathtub was in the master bedroom and they sure were enjoying. After making love in the water Vincent had his eyes closed as he felt Catherine's lips on his face and then in his chest. Vincent pulled her closer to him; their bare chests in contact with each other. He open his eyes and found those beautiful eyes staring him…her eyes were one of things he loved the most on her.

Since the first time they met, even when he tried to scare her and push her away, he never saw any fear towards him; she was never afraid of him. In her eyes he found a stillness and bravery, passion and love, loyalty and trust.

"You keep staring" she mocked him.

"And you keep saying that" he answered and kissed her lips. "I'm gonna miss this, you know? Have you all by myself, all day, all night…" He sighed

"I know what you mean." She put her head on his chest "But you are very welcome to spend the night with me. Of course, we have to be really quiet, since I have a roommate."

Vincent laughed "I don't know if we are the quite type."

She looked at him and said serious "We will make work. We are in this together and I'm sure as hell won't let you go so easily, Mr. Keller." She smiled.

"Since I don't have any plans to go anywhere but where you are, I think I'm ok with that!"

"I love you" Catherine said and after Vincent kissed her once more he replied "I love you too."

"Did you send Jt a text today?" Catherine asked after a few seconds.

"No, I forgot!" he laughed "I guess you distracted me."

"Now it's my fault you forget your best friend?" she asked pretending to be mad.

"Well, what can I say? You were the one wearing nothing but my shirt; do you have any idea how hot was that?"

Now was Catherine's turn to laugh "I guess you showed me once or twice."

"The water is getting colder, we should get out and taking this to bed. What do you think?"

Catherine laughed "First, you are going to called JT or he will get worried without any reason."

Vincent nodded and when he was about to leave the bathtub he looked at the light and his eyes bothered him. Catherine who was already out of the tub with a towel wrapped around her body, noticed something was wrong. "Vincent? Are you ok?"

"Yeah!" he answered "My eyes…have been playing up on me."

Catherine gave Vincent a towel "What do you mean? Are you in pain?" she asked really concerned.

Vincent wrapped the towel around his waist "No, it's not pain…I don't even know how to describe it. It lasted less than a few seconds."

"Are you sure you are fine?" Catherine asked again as they entered in the bedroom.

"I sure, don't worry." He said and smiled. Catherine wasn't totally convinced but she let it go for now.

Vincent called JT and his friend answered in the third ring "Dude, I have some good news! I think I finally understood what Evan said about your DNA!" JT said excited.

"Really? What is it?" Vincent replied and Catherine looked at him.

"I've been thinking about evolutionary step, did you notice any physical changes?"

"My eyes have been playing with me, I don't know."

"I think I have a theory, the whole mutation thing that Evan mentioned to Catherine in the wedding, it might be you evolving, into what? I still don't know, but it doesn't about you becoming more animal either."

"That's comforting!" Vincent said contemplative "Maybe I should go back and…"

"Hey! I didn't say that to ruin your vacation. I'm just saying because it's good news, you're not going to turn into a tiger or something. Keep enjoying your time and we talk about this later; see what it can be. Say hi to Catherine and don't forget I want full report when you come back."

"JT!" Vincent exclaimed

JT laughed "Just saying"

Vincent told everything to Catherine and once again he asked himself what he did to deserve her.

"I already told you, I accept all of who you are. Mutation or not, it doesn't matter to me."

"I don't want hurt you!" he murmured.

"I think we did a lot of thing that proved that you won't hurt me." She laughed "Now, what do you say we go downstairs and watch a movie?"

"How do you do?" he asked wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Do what?" she asked confused.

Vincent gently rested his forehead against her "Erase my fears"

She caressed his cheek "You are responsible for that. When I'm with you I feel strong, like I could take anything!"

"You are amazing, you know that?" he said looking into her eyes.

"You are too." She said kissing him.

So, what do you think of Last week episode? I'm so mad at Evan. Not because of the episode, but because of the promo. I said weeks ago that I could forgive him because he was just trying to protect Catherine, but now he is just jealous and feeling rejected…It's a terrible combination…but I love Mark so….I'm really confused! LOL Its April 18 yet?
