Kate Beckett woke up to sunlight seeping through her curtains. She grabbed her phone from the bedside cabinet as she rolled over, the time read 8:30am. Great hopefully a day of no bodies! Kate thought to herself, she didn't have to go to the precinct either; all of her paperwork was up to date at the moment, which was very rare for her.

Kate threw on an old pair of fat pants as she headed to the kitchen to make herself some breakfast. She opened the fridge, only to find some furry bacon, old take out cartons and a little bit of milk. I really have to go shopping! Thought Kate as she shut the fridge, shopping for groceries was not one of Kate's strong points. Instead she just made herself a cup of tea and padded over to the couch. It had been a very stressful past week; with three homicides. Just as Kate had settled down and started to read the morning paper her phone sitting next to her rang. It was dispatch, which could only mean one thing. A body. She picked up the phone "Beckett?"

So they had a murder, so much for a peaceful, relaxing day. The shopping would have to wait for a later date too. As Kate was getting ready she put her phone and put it on speaker to call Castle. She nearly poked herself in the eye with her mascara brush when it was Martha who picked up the phone, "Kate, darling! Martha here!" Her extravagant voice filled the room.

"Oh hi Martha, umm is Castle around? We have a body?" Kate asked, still a little shocked.

"Oh yes dear, I will just go and get him. Bear with!" Martha replied.

"Thanks."

In the background Kate could hear muffled voices, well to be exact Castle's voice saying something along the lines of "Mother! What have I told you about answering my phone?"

"Why Detective, what do I owe the pleasure? And sorry about Mother, you know how she is." Castle's velvet voice said.

"It's fine Castle, we have a body. But are you busy?" She could hear things clinking around in the back ground.

"Oh, I am just making s'morlette, I would love to come. Otherwise I have to start writing." Castle replied.

"A s'morlette Castle, really? Should I even ask? A weird creation of yours?" Kate teased.

"Oh how you hurt and scar me Detective! Now are you going to tell me where this murder is? Or will I have to continue listening to you insulting me?"

Kate gave him the details and then hung up and headed to the crime scene.

It had been an extremely long day by the time Kate got home and kicked off her killer heels. They had absolutely no leads on the case and every second leads were growing colder and colder. This was one of the downsides of being an NYPD Detective, having no leads at all. But Castle kept them on their toes finding minor details that would help, but today he couldn't find a thing. Kate did love having Castle around, she just hated admitting it! After her take out dinner she headed to bed. Tomorrow was going to be a very long day.

They were in a dark alley chasing a suspect, Castle right on her heels. From behind a bullet came hurdling towards them. Castle shouted and Kate turned around just in time to catch a falling Castle. He'd been hit. "Rick, Rick! Nooooooo!" Kate cried.

Blood was pouring out of his chest and his eyes turned glassy and his expression remained blank. Every one of his features frozen. "Rick, no, I love you!"...

Hope you enjoyed this! Promise my next chapter will be longer! I think she will be in a therapy session with Dr. Burke discussing her feelings for Castle. I will try and update ASAP! But I am busy with school.
