AN: first story. hope it doesnt sound too cheesy.
He came around the corner with two coffees in hand, knowing that if Beckett didn't get her coffee she would be cranky and he would have to hear about it all day long. When he turned the corner he saw two shabby looking guys in an alleyway smoking some cigarettes. He was getting close to the crime scene and was already two blocks away from the crime scene when he heard footsteps following him. He sped up his walking speed . He was about to turn the corner when a hand grabbed him on his shoulder and pushed him up against the wall.
" Well how are you doing today?" A tall dark haired man said sarcastically. The man brought his arm back and punched Castle in the face he had a chance to defend himself.
"Lets get him." A dirty blonde headed man supplied to the left of Castle. The two men started punching and kicking Castle. He could see another man coming from behind the two men.
" Help.." Was all Castle could squeak out before he felt a sharp pain shooting through his stomach. The men didn't let up they were punching, kicking, and stabbing him repeatedly until they heard footsteps coming toward them.
"Scram!" The man with the knife said in aloud whisper. The footsteps began to get closer and closer before they stopped right in front of Castle. He could feel hands on him checking for a pulse.
"Help.." came out as a strangled whisper from Castle's mouth.
"HEY! I NEED SOME HELP OVER HERE! ITS CASTLE! WE NEED A MEDIC!" LT screamed. "I need some help about two blocks from the crime scene." he repeated into the walkie talkie for good measure. Soon enough Castle heard sirens and footsteps coming toward their location.
"CASTLE! CASTLE!" A pair of cool familiar hands wrapped around his face. "C'mon Castle stay with me!" Kate said a little edgy.
" Honey get back a minute I need to take a look at him," Lanie said gently pushing Kate away so she could examine Castle's condition. " Castle I need you to stay awake for me until the ambulance gets here." she said . Castle could faintly hear noises in the background and could feel Kate's hand wrapped around his. He tried to keep his eyes open but there was so much pain shooting through his body he could barely think straight. Lanie's hands were covering the knife wounds but it wasn't helping so she made Esposito give her his jacket to apply pressure so he wouldn't bleed through.
"Stay with me Rick." Kate pleaded. Her grip grew tighter on his hand. She touched above his eyebrow where it was cut from his attackers punching him multiple times. The sirens in the background grew louder. "They are almost here just hang on." She said with hope in her voice.
A few moments later the ambulance came. "Ladies I'm going to need you to step back we can get him on the gurney." The ambulance worker said. They stepped back, but as soon as they were done Kate grabbed Castle's hand.
"I'm coming with him." She said a little possessive. Once they were loaded up the drove off to the hospital.
