AN: Hey everyone! After watching Hunt this story popped into my head and I can't drop it so hopefully writing a fanfic will help. At least it will keep me occupied for these last few days we have to wait for the new episode…can't wait! Obviously I don't own Castle or the characters. This story is pretty much my idea of what happen after Hunt ended from Kate's point of view. Caskett love is the best kind of love!

"Mom, there's something I want to tell you." …

After Castle explained to his mother and Kate how he met his father and the true events of the kidnapping they all sat down for breakfast. This is where this story begins…

As they all made their way to the table for breakfast Kate took Castle's hand and lead him to the side. She wanted another private moment with him, more like a private night but she knew that had to wait till later, so she settled for this short moment.

"Castle." She stared up at him with her big gorgeous eyes and in a soft tender voice whispered, "I'm just so glad you're home. I was so worried." She reached up and gave him a tender and loving kiss that showed just how much she missed him. The kiss was too short for the affection she needed from him so she wrapped her arms around him and just held him in her arms for a brief moment.

"Uh Kate, I think we should head back to the table. I think they're waiting for us." Castle said as he interrupted the endearing moment.

Kate looked over at the table with the most innocent face she could muster and turned back to Castle. And with one last quick peck she replied, "Ok, come on." She grabbed his hand and they moved towards the table.

All through breakfast she did not stop touching him. She held his hand, touched his knee, wrapped her arm around his shoulders, or simply just stared at him. The minute Castle and Alexis walked through the loft's door she was overcome with an overwhelming feeling of relief and an overwhelming urge to make love to the man she loved more than anything else in her life. She wanted more than anything to take him to his bedroom and make slow passionate love to him all through the night. It was during this thought that she was interrupted…

"Gram, that was delicious. Thank you so much but as you can imagine I've had a rough couple of days so if I may be excused I think I need to head up to bed."

"Oh! Of course dear, your father can make sure you have everything you need while Kate and I clear up these dishes." Martha exclaimed with a dramatic flair.

Castle's ears perked up at this statement and as everyone was getting up to complete their given tasks he blurted out, "Well Alexis if you ever want to get out of cleaning up dinner you just have to get kidnapped again." Laughter was heard all through the loft as Alexis headed up the stairs and Martha began to bring dishes to the kitchen.

Kate, still holding Castle's hand, looked down and with a slight pout reluctantly let go. "Don't worry Kate, I'll be right back. I promise." Castle reassured her with a quick kiss on the forehead and hurried up the stairs after Alexis.

Kate stared after him and just stood there for a moment reveling in how much passion and love she felt in that moment. She couldn't stand it she wanted to jump up and down and twirl around like a little girl. But then she remembered Martha was standing not too far away and to Kate's surprise watching the whole private moment she just had.

"I'm sorry Martha, if I've been hogging him. But I'm just so glad he is home and safe. I..I couldn't imag…I'm just so glad he is home." Kate rambled trying to explain the lovey touchy mood she was in.

"No need to explain dear. I'm just happy he finally has someone that cares for him as much as he cares for them. You two make a great team and you should never feel like you have to explain your love for my son. I'm glad it is you that he has to come home to." Martha said.

With a shy awkward smile Kate thanked Martha and they began to clear the dishes and put everything away. The two were just finishing up the last of the dishes when she heard creaking from the stairs. She threw done here towel and headed toward the stairs to be greeted by a yawning Castle. He did look awfully tired, Kate admitted to herself. But still he reached out his arms for her to walk right into which she did without hesitation. There was no greater feeling then being surrounded by this man's warm body, at least not one that could be reached outside of the privacy of the bedroom, God she wanted to make love to him so very much she kept thinking. The two just starred up into each other's eyes for a good few minutes while Martha put the finishing touches on the kitchen. As she came around the corner she had to stop and admire the love and heat she could see between the two as they stood in each other's arms…

"eh em." Martha interrupted. "Well Kate, if I may steal a hug from son before I head up to bed myself, he will be all yours."

"Of course Martha." Kate replied as she shied away from Castle.

Martha embraced her son with as much love as she could and looked up to him, "You are a great father and I appreciate you getting our Alexis back, but Richard, if you do anything like that again I will kill you myself. I love you. And I think I can speak for everyone in this room, giving Kate a knowing smile, we missed you very very much. Goodnight dears." And with that she swirled off up the stairs leaving the two alone at last.

They each let out a sigh of relief, they were finally alone, together, for the rest of the night (well day to be more accurate). Kate grabbed Castle's hand and stood there with his hand in hers just admiring the sheer fact that he was standing next to her. She gently rubbed her fingers over his trying to be as gentle and loving as she felt. Castle wrapped his free arm around her waist and pulled her in as close as he could to his body.

"I take it from how touchy and close you've been since we walked in you will be going to bed with me Ms. Beckett." Castle presumed.

"Yes. If that is ok with you Mr. Castle…" Kate shot back. She leaned up so her lips grazed his ear and whispered, "I want to make slow passionate love to you until we both pass out." in her most seductive and sexy voice. She stayed close to his ear for a moment biting her lip in excitement and pleasure. "That is if you're not too tired…"

Oooooohhhh…! To Be Continued.

*Please review and let me know what you think. Kate is my favorite character on the show so I love thinking/imagining/writing stories from her point of view and about her.
