Hope you like this one-shot……..
Detective Kate Beckett walked up to her apartment door with her keys clutched in her hands. She was moving faster now sure she was not alone. As the detective pondered why she left her sidearm at her desk she reached her apartment door. Upon putting the key in the keyhole the door swung open with a loud *CREEEEEEEEK* Kate flipped the light switch to find that there was no power. Anxiety creped up on Beckett and she began to sweat. Her senses on edge she heard the faucet in the kitchen *drip……drip…….drip* Beckett jumped when she heard footsteps from inside her bedroom. She moved toward the door, forcing herself to take the next step and the next, and the next until she had her shaking sweaty palm on the door handle. She turned it slowly and the door swung open. She walked into the door to find a cell phone emitting the sound of footsteps. She looked around in panic knowing she was being hunted by someone or something. Suddenly the lights came on and she heard a *SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*. The next thing she knew Rick Castle and his daughter Alexis ran at her with super soakers blazing. She fell back onto the bed half screaming and half laughing. Castle approached Beckett and leaned over. "That's for making me stay in the car".
