**I DO NOT OWN THIS SHOW OR THE CHARACTERS IN THE SHOW, I AM JUST BORROWING THEM**

-Restaurant-

Vincent froze. Not able to speak. JT and Tess had walked out of the restaurant for the tension between Vincent and Catherine was too much to bare. Vincent dropped his head then raised it back up to look at Catherine.

"Vincent say something, please." Tears filling her eyes, she continued, "I'm pregnant, Vincent….we're having a baby. Please tell me how you feel."

Vincent walked closer to Catherine, wrapping his arms around her as he said, "Are you sure?"

"I took a test last week, it said positive. So I decided to set up an appointment with the OB/GYN clinic…which is actually tomorrow. I will know for sure then….we will know for sure then."

Vincent didn't want his child to grow up with beastly instincts and suffer as he did. But the thought of being a dad, Catherine being the mom made him feel warm inside. He then smiled, and said, "Catherine, I must admit…I am scared. But even though our child is exposed to beast DNA….I am actually happy. I promise I accept you both into my life. Forever."

Catherine held her hand up and Vincent placed the ring on her finger. He then began to kiss her as JT and Tess walked back in. Then they broke the kiss when JT asks, "So is everything good now?"

Vincent looks at Catherine, and Catherine looks at Vincent…both smiling at one another as Vincent begins to say, "Yeah. Everything is perfect…." Vincent then picked up Catherine as he shouted, "I'm going to be a husband, and a father! She said yes!"

Catherine, still laughing and blushing from Vincent's excitement then asks, "Shall we celebrate?"

"Yes, we should. You have made me the happiest man to be alive, Catherine. I am so in love you. But I was hoping me and you could…uhm….celebrate alone, if you know what I mean." Vincent replies.

-House Boat-

Vincent kicked the door open as he carried Catherine into the empty house. Both were excited about going out for a while. Vincent had rented a boat for just the two of them to celebrate their engagement together. The couple had rushed to pack a change of clothes and their bathing suits for their was a hot tub on the rental boat. While Catherine was bent over putting her clothes into her bag, Vincent walked over to her, grabbing her hips, causing her to raise up and turn towards him. They began kissing, and it slowly deepened. Vincent began kissing Catherine's neck, her hands on the back of his neck to pull him even closer. She then breathed, "Vincent, not now. We need to wait til we get on the boat." but she couldn't resist how he touched her. "Oh, Vincent." she moaned as he picked her up and began kissing her on her lips. He sat down on the bed, now thrusting against her. She pulled at his hair, while arching her back to every thrust. "Vincent...we got….to go…" Catherine said as she began kissing Vincent again. Vincent then broke the kiss, his nose touching Catherine's nose, his hands cradled her face. He then kissed her softly then stood up and said with a smile on his face, "Let's go then because it is so hard to keep my hands off of you. You're an addiction that I can't control and I don't know how much longer I can hold back."

Catherine smiled, grabbing her bag then kissed Vincent on the cheek. She then rushed down the stairs and out the door. Vincent let out a laugh then said to himself, "How did I get so lucky?" He then grabbed his bag, then headed down the stairs. He locked the door as he walked outside to reunite with Catherine.

-Out On The Boat, Under The Stars-

Vincent stopped the boat in the middle of the ocean. Catherine came up from the bunk of the boat, pulling her hair up into a bun. She noticed Vincent was staring at her, "Why are you looking at me like that?" and she let out a laugh.

"Just admiring my wife-to-be in her robe, wondering what is underneath it." he replied, "and I love it when you put your hair up like that."

Catherine began to blush and walked towards the hot tub. She then turned towards Vincent, teasingly taking off her robe to reveal a two piece black bikini that tied around her neck, back, and hips. Vincent was turned on by the site of her. She then turned towards the hot tub and slowly stepped in. She laid her head back against the head rest of the hot tub as she let out a sigh. Vincent stripped all of his clothes off, then joined her. Catherine sat up and walked closer to Vincent. As their lips met, Vincent began to untie the bottoms to her bikini, then sliding them off of her and laying them off to the side of the hot tub. He then untied her top as well, placing them in the same spot. He slightly lifted her up and slid her down on his now hard erection. She pulled his bottom lip with her teeth as he went deep inside her. She grabbed the back of his neck with both of her hands using it to pull herself up and down on him, causing him to grunt out a moan. Their kiss got deeper and deeper with every thrust. Catherine then massaged her tongue on Vincent's neck as she continued to move up and down on his erection. Vincent then laid Catherine's head on the head rest of the hot tub, grabbing her hips as he thrust in and out of her.

"Vincent….don't stop." she said windedly. He then began to thrust even more. Then as they reached an orgasm, she raised up, moaning into his mouth, and he moaned into hers. Both gazing into each other's eyes. Catherine then showered his face with kisses, then grabbed her robe and bikini. She got out of the hot tub, Vincent following behind her. They then went down to the bunk of the boat and got into the bed. Catherine then looked at Vincent and said, "I had a wonderful time with you….and I loved your idea of celebration."

Vincent then said, "I love you, Catherine. Now get some rest. We have an appointment tomorrow."

In no time, Catherine fell asleep, and Vincent smiled kissing her forehead, then going to sleep as well.

-OB/GYN Clinic-

Catherine's legs shook in nervousness as she waited to be called back to see the doctor. Vincent placed his hand on her shaking legs and smiled, "I know your nervous, I am too. But shaking your legs isn't going to have you called back any quicker." letting out a slight laugh.

"Sorry. I can't help it. I'm scared Vincent. What if I can't do this?" she replied.

"Catherine…honey, it's going to be okay. I'm scared too, but we will get through this…together. We will face this together head on, not allowing our fears to stop us. You are so brave, Catherine. Remember what you said to me when your precinct was hunting me down? You told me that as long as we were together….we could overcome anything…and I believe that we will do just that."

Vincent took Catherine's hand in his, webbing their fingers together. She then looked up at Vincent and smiled as she said, "You always have the right words to say."

Vincent wrapped his arm around Catherine, pulling her closer to him. She laid her head on his shoulder. She always felt safe when he held her.

"Catherine Chandler." said a nurse as she came into the lobby. They both got up and followed the nurse to a room. The nurse left briefly then came back with a hospital gown, a sheet, and a cup. She then began to give Catherine instructions, "Okay, we need you to pee inside this cup so we can run a pregnancy test. The bathroom is down the hall, third door on the left. When you come back, just sit your sample in the lab station then come back in here and take everything off and put on this gown. This sheet you can use to cover yourself up until the doctor can come in to see you."

Catherine looked up at Vincent. He now had a worried look on his face. He then asked the nurse, "Is the doctor male or female?"

"Vincent!" Catherine shouted.

The nurse smiled then continued to say, "Its fine. We get that a lot from the fathers. The doctor is male, but not to worry, he's been doing this a long time now. He is fully experienced. I'll be back in to check on you in a few minutes."

Catherine thanked the nurse then directed her attention towards Vincent, "What the hell was that about?"

"Sorry, it's just I am having issues with the fact that the doctor is a male and he will be looking at you in places that only I should be looking at." he replied.

"Vincent, it's not like me and the doctor are going to run off into the sunset just because he looks at my lady parts." Catherine said jokingly, then she continued, "I'll be right back. I'm going to go get this cup thing over with."

Catherine finally returned, closing the door behind her. She smiled when she noticed Vincent had briefly dozed off in the chair he was sitting in, then she began to remove her shoes. Vincent sat up and stretched, "What did I miss?"

Catherine let out a laugh as she started removing her shirt and said, "Well if you hadn't woke up just now, you would have missed out on a strip tease."

Vincent smiled then got up out of the chair. "You keep teasing me and the doctor is going to walk in on how we made this baby."

Catherine laughed then retorted, "Then maybe I should step behind the curtain and change then."

Vincent walked closer to her, placing his right hand on the small of her back, pulling her close to kiss her. Right at that moment Catherine was just in her bra and panties. Suddenly the doctor came in, only to walk back out as he had seen them kissing. Vincent and Catherine jumped, then looked at each other and laughed hysterically. Catherine then removed her bra and panties, then slipped the gown on. She then sat on the table and covered her legs. The doctor walked back in and noticed the couple was blushing.

"I'm Dr. Kaine, and you must be Catherine. I apologize as to how we met a few minutes ago, but I figured I would allow you both time to control yourselves." said the doctor. He then looked at Vincent and said, "And you must be the father."

"I am." Vincent let out in a huff.

"Okay. So you are definitely pregnant, Ms. Chandler." said the doctor, now looking at his chart. "When was your last period?"

"Last month. But it was strange, it had only lasted a day." Catherine replied.

The doctor then pulled out a scale and moved it around a bit. "If I am correct, and its never 100% accurate according to the scale, you are 8 ½ weeks pregnant. We won't know for sure until you have an ultrasound." He then stood up and laid the chart on the the nearby counter. Vincent stood about the same time the doctor did then got closer to Catherine, almost like his instincts to protect her were kicking in. The doctor then listened to her heart, then pulled out the feet rests as he instructed, "I need you to put your feet on these rests and spread your legs."

Vincent's eyes glared to a gold, and he turned towards Catherine trying to avoid the doctor seeing him. Catherine grabbed Vincent's hand and whispered, "It's okay. Calm down."

Vincent's eyes slowly went back to normal. The doctor then sat in the stool at the end of the table and told Catherine to lay back and relax. Vincent could feel himself beginning to change again as the doctor lifted the sheet. Vincent let out a slight growl, his eyes locked on Catherine's as they began to change again. Catherine squeezed Vincent's hand in hopes to get him to pull out of it. Then as the doctor began to push his fingers inside her, Vincent lost it.

"Get your hands off of her!" he growled.

"Vincent!" Catherine yelled.

He then realized that he had went too far. He went back to normal and then looked at the doctor, and apologized.

"It's okay. I get that a lot. It's not easy doing my job sometimes. I even like to think that it's harder for me to do than it is for the patients. But I completely understand. I wouldn't be able to control myself either if some stranger did this to my wife." the doctor claimed.

As the doctor finished, and Catherine had finished dressing, she gave Vincent a harsh look as she exited the room. He laid his face into his hand then ran his hand through his hair as he followed behind her. They made their way out to the car and got in.

"Catherine…I'm sorry. I couldn't help it. I let myself get out of ha…."

"Just drive, Vincent." Catherine interrupted.
