Based off a prompt on tumblr.
If she had a list of the worst murder cases this one would be the second on her list.
1-Her mothers murder.
2-The murder of a child.
Often the cases are about adults they sometimes get teenagers but never a kid they had a kid was kidnapped once but never one murdered. So how did it come down down to this.
A mother was trying to run away with his son but the babies dad caught them.
She found herself crying in the bathroom a couple times while solving the case.
The case was closed and all she could think about was holding her baby boy but the pile of paperwork was stopping her.
"Detective go home, hug your boy I know I'm going home to hug my children" Gates said walking out of her office.
"Thank you Sir" Kate packed up her stuff for the day and went home.
She turned the keys into the lock and opened the door. Castle was holding their seven month old son Mason on his hip.
"Hey honey" Rick said with a loving smile.
"Hey babe" Kate walked towards him and pressed a light kiss to his lips. "Where are you going?" Kate asked noticing that Rick was getting ready to go outside.
"I have to pick up something's from the store,"
"I'll feed Mason and put him to bed," Kate said.
"Okay I'll see you soon"
"Ma," Mason complained from his highchair.
"I know your hungry but just give mama a couple of minutes"
Kate grabbed a jar of baby food and sat down on the lounge with Mason on the lounge. Once Mason had finished she ran a bath for him and her.
Kate sat in the warm bathtub with Mason in her lap playing with the bath toys. Till Mason started to get fussy.
"Ma ma ma"
"What's the matter baby boy"
"Ma" he said again.
Kate got him out of the bathtub and wrapped him in a towel while changing Mason he kicked and was starting to get more cranky.
Kate held him in her arms and gave him a bottle. Mason looked up at with his big blue eyes that melted her heart his little hand was placed on her hand as he fed him his bottle.
