She was going to die!
It was the only thought that was running through her mind as she clung onto the edge of the building, desperately trying not to look down as she realised that this was probably the end of it all. She was going to soon let go of the building and she'd fall to her death, fall and hit the ground where people were scream around her and the cops would be called to stare at her dead body and then send her off the morgue. She was going to die now and the last memory Rick was ever going to have of her was of the two of them ending their partnership because she was too stubborn and because she'd lied to him! She loved him, loved him more than anything she'd ever loved before and here she was clinging onto the wall, about to die because she wouldn't listen to him. Her father was going to grieve another Beckett, this time his daughter and her colleagues were going to mourn her death but most of all Rick, her writer, her one and done, was going to mourn the life they never had because of her!
"Kate," a voice started shouting, amazement covering her face as she looked up, tears filling her eyes as she listened to her name being shouted. It had to be him. It had to be her Rick, her writer! It had to be his voice calling for her, the writer coming to save her from this! He was coming for her like he always did. He was her partner, her friend, the man she loved and he was coming to save her.
"Rick, Rick," she screamed, tears running down her cheeks as she felt her fingers start to lose their grip of the building, tears running down her cheeks. He had to make it, he hand to save her. "Rick, Rick please help me," she shouted, losing her hope that he would find her as she desperately attempted to cling on to the brick, the rough material cutting into her hands as she prayed, prayed that he would save her. "Please, please save me," she whispered quietly, feeling her fingers lose their grips, her eyes shutting before she gasped when she felt someone grasp her wrist. Feeling whoever it was pull her up, Kate gasped as her body was pulled over her side and she fell onto the roof again, breathing out quickly in the realisation that she was safe! She wasn't dead!
"Kate," the voice said quietly as Kate looked up to see the writer staring at her, tears filling her eyes as he knelt down and felt her wrap his arms around her neck quickly, her face burying into his shoulder as she sobbed in his arms. "We need to go, we need to go now," he whispered as she shook her head, not wanting to move out of his arms. She was safe! She was safe again; Rick had saved her like she knew he would. "Kate, there's a car downstairs and we need to go, we need to go now," he declared as he stood up and helped her off the ground, still holding onto her as she continued to shake in his arms. "We need to go now Beckett," he whispered as she stared at him.
"Go where?" she asked quietly as Rick led her towards the door, keeping an arm around her as they slowly began to approach the stairs. "Rick where are we going?" she questioned, stopping them as she looked up at him.
"Do you trust me?" he asked as she nodded slowly, knowing that he was the person she trusted more than anything, even though he'd investigated her mother's case. "We're getting out of New York, I'll tell you more in the car Kate but we need to go now, we need to get you as far away from New York," he stated as she bit into her lip, surprised when he found her hand and squeezed it. "I know you want to stay and fight this but you need to trust me, we have a plan and we're going to keep you safe but you need to get in the car with me," he declared as she slowly nodded, not caring anymore about her stubborn pride!
It was time she started trusting him.
So what do you think? I have a plan for this but I'm waiting to see whether you think I should continue this or not! I know I seem to write stories all the time but it keeps me busy and I need an escape from real life right now because everything is a nightmare at the moment and writing and listening to all of you and reading all your amazing work just makes me happy at the moment. Anyway please review and tell me what you think because it means the world to me and also I want to know whether you think I should continue! I promise, this story will be a happy, angst filled, Caskett explosion of emotions; at least that's what I'm hoping for and well, I really hope you want to read this!
Also I apologise for the short chapter but it's an introduction into the start of the story and you know, short is sweet sometimes!
