Chapter 21

Vincent came flying into the house, yelling, "Catherine?!"

From the back of the house, he heard a loud, "Daddy!" followed by a splash and the scamper of little feet. Mikey, as he was called to distinguish him from his father, came running in the living room, bare naked and soaking wet. He collided with Vincent's leg, and held tight.

"Daddy, missed you!" he said, smiling up at his father with a big toothy grin. Vincent reached down, and disregarding how wet he was getting, pulled his son in for a bear hug. Mikey hugged him back, and then wiggled in Vincent's arms. "Down, daddy!" he ordered. Vincent chuckled and set him down.

"Hey, bud! Where is mommy?" Vincent asked. Mikey looked around the room, a quizzical look on his face. He shrugged his shoulders and ran out of the room, yelling, "Mommy? Daddy home!"

Vincent chuckled again. Mikey had two settings: off and full out maniac. He sat down on the couch and pulled off his shoes. He leaned his head back and closed his eyes. They promptly flew back open when he felt his wife slide onto his lap. He grinned, gripped her hips and kissed her.

A loud, "EWWWWWW!" made them pull apart. Mikey stood next to the couch, still naked. "Daddy, yuck!"

Catherine turned to look at their son. "If we didn't do this, you wouldn't be here," she told him. Vincent chuckled. Whispering naughtily into her ear, he said,"We did a lot more than that to get him." He was rewarded with a blush spilling over Catherine's fair cheeks.

"So," Catherine said, wrapping her arms around his shoulders, "What was all the yelling about?"

Vincent sat up straighter, holding Catherine so she wouldn't fall. A huge grin spread across his face. "I got it!"

Catherine's eyes widened. "Chief Surgeon? You got the position?" she asked excitedly. He nodded and she screeched. Vincent picked her up and spun her around. Mikey laughed from the floor, shouting," Me next! Me next!" Vincent put Catherine down and picked up Mikey, spinning him. "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..." he screamed.

After he set Mikey back down, Vincent turned to Catherine. "Pack a bag for the weekend. We are going to celebrate!"

"What about Mikey?" Catherine asked. Vincent shook his head.

"Taken care of. My parents will take him. You know how much they love to spoil him," he said.

"I know they do. Too much," Catherine said, rolling her eyes. Vincent slapped her ass.

"Get going, woman. Time is a-wasting."

Catherine mock saluted him. "Aye, aye sir!" she said, before she headed to their room to pack clothes for them. Vincent took Mikey into his room, got him dressed and packed a small bag for him.

"Hey, bud. Wanna go visit grandma and grandpa for a couple days?" he asked Mikey.

"Gammy and Gampy? Yay!"

After dropping Mikey off at his grandparents, Vincent told Catherine where they were going was a surprise, so he blindfolded her. Catherine protested, but Vincent held firm. After a few hours of driving, Vincent pulled into their destination. Grinning, he pulled the blindfold off.

They were back at Spatastic. Catherine raised a brow at Vincent. "Really?"

"Well, Mr Lowen did say we could come back anytime we wanted."

Catherine smirked, and they got out of the car. Vincent grabbed their bags and they headed for the front desk. Heather squealed when she saw them and ran around the desk. She grabbed Catherine in a bear hug.

"Can't...breathe...Heather..." she gasped out. Heather released her and pulled Vincent in next. He laughed, and returned her hug.

"The room is all set, big guy," Heather said, winking at Vincent. Catherine looked between them.

"Was I the last to know about your promotion, big guy?"

Vincent had the grace to look sheepish. "Well, I wanted to surprise you..."

A month after they got back from the spa, Catherine stood in the doorway of the bathroom, watching as Vincent finished shaving around his goatee. He was naked, save for a towel wrapped around his waist. He turned from the mirror and grinned at her.

"Like what you see, Mrs Keller?" he asked.

She laughed, and walked farther in. He grabbed her waist and hoisted her up on the sink in front of him. She sighed, and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. She slowly shook her head.

"What?" Vincent asked her.

"We really need to stop going to that spa..." she said. He raised an eyebrow. She sighed and said, "So, daddy, are you ready for number 2?"

Vincent's grip tightened on her hips. He started grinning. "Another baby?"

"Yes, another baby. You sex addict, you," Catherine giggled.

"Didn't hear you complaining..." he said, just before the towel disappeared.

8 months later, Isabelle Marie Keller came into the world screaming. She weighed in at 7lbs, 9ozs and was 19" long. Mikey took one look at his sister, and said, "Put her back. She too small."

Vincent and Catherine grinned at each other.
