So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, every day. You and me... every day." (Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook)

"Your eyes are ok?" Catherine asked snuggled at Vincent. They were watching a movie on the living room.

Vincent smiled "I'm fine. When we come back, I will do a battery of tests, but I feel fine, I mean more than fine."

Catherine lifted her head and looked at him "What do you mean?"

"I have you Catherine and I'm not saying this is going to be easy, but as long as I have you, nothing else matters."

She smiled then kissed him "The same goes for me" Catherine pulled a part and rested her head on his chest with Vincent's arm around her.

Hours later Catherine was going to make dinner when she noticed that there were no wood in the fireplace so Vincent promptly offered to go and get some. He picked a flashlight and went outside. When she didn't hear from him after a half an hour she took another flashlight in the kitchen and went look for him.

"Vincent?" she screamed his name "Everything ok?" No answer. Catherine started to get worried so she came downstairs, that was the moment she felt a pair of arms grasps her from behind and Catherine screamed and fight in his arms.

"What a beautiful girl like you, is doing here outside in the cold?" a husky voice said in her ears.

"This was so not funny, Vincent" she said slapping his arms "I was worried about you."

He laughed "I'm sorry, it was stronger than me."

"You clearly are still feeling better if you were trying to scare me." She responded.

"Sorry!" he said putting his arms around her "I couldn't resist. But I know it was a terrible joke. Can you forgive me?" Vincent gives her his puppy dog eyes

Catherine looked at him and giggled "I never thought I would see the day you actually would try a puppy dog eye on me?"

"That's depend, is it working?" he kissed her forehead.

"Nope!" she smiled "I'm a detective remember? This won't work with me that easy, I'm used to this."

"So, how on earth I can win your forgiveness?"

"Well, Mister Keller, that's the one million dollar question, but first…"she came really closer to his ear and murmured "you will have to catch me." and then she ran.

Vincent laughed Catherine was really unpredictable and he loved that on her.

"Oh ok, playing hide and seek?" he said aloud "Really? We are no too old for that?" he heard Catherine laughing and he could hear her heart beating. "This will be too easy for me, have you forgotten about the whole mutation DNA?"

And just like that his eyes bothered him again, Vincent stopped he was a little worried, what was happening to him? "Catherine!" he screamed.

Catherine noticed the change in his voice so, she came towards him "he was with his hands in his eyes "Vincent what happened?" she put her hands on his face "let me see it?"

"Go back to the cabin and grab the gun you have there, I don't know what's happening." He was concerned for her safety.

"Don't be ridiculous, I'm not going anywhere. Now, open your eyes." She demanded.

"Catherine, please. I don't want to hurt you." he begged her.

She cupped his face, "You will never hurt me. Now, trust me and open your eyes."

Slowly he did and when his eyes were full open he was in shock, he could see everything in the dark. It was like the glasses he used to wear back in Afghanistan. He now had night vision.

"Night Vision?" JT screamed in the other side of the line "This is fucking cool, man!" Vincent had called his best friend as soon as Catherine and him got back to the cabin "I can't belive we miss this!"

"What do you mean?" Vincent asked confused.

"JT laughed the whole black outs thing, you were evolving so fast they your body didn't handle. You evolving in months what take million years for some species.

"I guess it could be worse, right?" Vincent murmured he wasn't so excited like JT was.

"Well, I suppose. Don't freak out, ok? Enjoy the rest of you vacation and we make some tests when you come back."

"Ok"

"You are quite" Vincent said to Catherine after dinner. "Are you afraid? If you want we can go back or I can…"

"No!" she almost screamed "I'm not afraid of you. You should know that by now. I'm just worried about what JT said,"

Vincent looked at her confused so Catherine continued "He said the black outs maybe it's because your body couldn't handle…what if…" she couldn't finished the words; tears were falling down her face. She wasn't used to cry in front of anyone, but this was Vincent the man she loved and couldn't live without.

"Hey!" he hugged her tightly "I'm not going anywhere, trust me. Nothing is going to happen to me."

Catherine embraced him tightly "I can't lose you!"

Vincent kissed her forehead "You won't"

They went to the bedroom and they lay holding each other. "I'm sorry if I hurt you when I asked if you were afraid. It's I'm not used to this you know. I'm used to see fear in people's eyes when I turn, even JT can't help it. But with you…things are so differently. I don't want you to think that I don't trust you, ok?"

"I understand, but you have to stop to ask me to run when something like that happen. I love you Vincent and I told you a million of times that you won't hurt me and I am in this."

"You can't blame me for want to protect you."

"Protect me from you, when there is no need?" She asked and when he didn't reply she continued. "My first instinct in the woods when we met was that you would never hurt me and I was right. Then, do you remember when I asked for your help with those girls and you turned in the basement?"

Vincent nodded and she continued "You didn't hurt me back then and we didn't feel half of what we feel now for each other. You didn't love me that night but you still didn't hurt me. So, give one good reason to be scared of you now."

"I wish I had the faith you have in me" he murmured.

She caressed his cheek "Look how far we've come. You didn't think we could make love and don't be too cocky, but you are doing a pretty damn good job" They laughed.

"I love you" he said before capture her lips and surrender his body and soul to her again.

Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. (Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember)
