Enjoy
Kate broke from the kiss "Castle" he simply hummed in response, "where are we going?" Kate was unsure with where Castle wanted this relationship to go where they just having a little dance? Or was this it? because she wanted it all with him but they never talked about it. "To the bedroom" as Castle made his way to the massage chair he had set up in his bedroom Kate didn't move she needed to know, she stood there holding back the tears normally he is so understanding when she was upset or mad, "Kate you coming?" how could he be so clueless was all Kate could think⦠"No" Castle looked up at Kates face her eyes looked very glassy like she was about to cry he walked over to her "Kate, what's wrong?" Kate looked up took in a deep breath before she spoke "Castle, what are we honestly doing I mean where are we" she signaled between the two of them "where are we going because every time I ask you just change the subject don't think I haven't noticed I mean come on Rick".
Castle wasn't sure how to respond, he stood there speechless for a moment he was trying to wrap his head around her words he loved her so much and wanted everything with her he just was upset with himself because he hadn't been paying that much attention to Kate lately unintentionally, he knew it was wrong he just didn't realise until the other night. But the idea of her thinking that he didn't want a future broke his heart. Kate couldn't believe how long it was taking for him to answer, she had, had enough for tonight she walked over to grab her bag and headed for the door "Kate wait" she turned to him she was pissed "no Rick when you can manage to get your words together you know where to find me maybe next time you might hear me" and with that Kate left she knew she had to leave before things got out of hand she loved that man that she just walked out on and she knew if she stayed they would either fight and break up for good or get into a passionate fight that would lead to them solving their issues in bed. They needed tonight for space and if Castle wanted more like she did then he would find her tomorrow.
Next Morning
Kate hadn't slept all night she got a text from Espo saying they had a body drop she still hadn't heard from Castle and knew if she was sticking to this then she would go to the crime scene by herself.
Castle sat in his office all night he didn't get a wink of sleep Alexis had come in early to grab a change of clothes she noticed her father's office door was closed and there were two wine glasses on the table still half full she assumed that the two of them were still in bed as it was only 7:00am so she left them alone she knew she would probably see them at the morgue today if they had a murder. Castle was so out of it he didn't even hear his daughter come into the loft and leave.
Martha however was home the night before and had heard the yelling she knew Kate had left but felt it was safe to not speak to her son until morning when he had slept it off she walked down the stairs just missing Alexis, and headed to his office she knocked on his door "Richard?" he just mumbled in response Martha was fully aware of that mumble so she slowly opened his door and saw her son sitting in his chair she walked over to him sitting down next to him waiting for him to speak. "mother I think I've lost her, god I'm a WRITER! I'm not supposed to be someone who loses his words seriously!" Martha placed her hand on his knee, "dear I heard last night you haven't lost her yet though" Castle looked up he had definitely been crying last night and there was a definite sign of lack of sleep, "she left mother she asked me where we were going and I just stood there not even being able to process any words I mean come on" Martha breathed in "this may sound silly to you but do you see a future with Kate or was this in a way just trying to get the woman who was to hard to get?".
Castle stood up he couldn't believe his mothers question of course he loved her "how can you even ask that mother of course I love her this has never been a game to me I was just so scared of moving too quickly that I would scare her away. Mother she is the one my one". Martha stood up and walked to her son pulling him in for a hug "you need to tell her that Richard, Katherine is someone who can't have her heart broken again it is too much for her that's why she is so cautious she needs to know that you're here for it all forever". Castle nodded he knew what to do but he would wait a bit until she is at the precinct.
Crime Scene
"Hey girl, here's your victim woman, early to mid thirties name is Jane Kres" Lanie looked up at Kate "where's Castle?" something was up Lanie thought Castle was never far from Kates side especially now that they are together "he is at his loft, COD?" Lanie looked up and gave Kate a look then back at the woman, "gunshot wound to the chest, she died instantly by the look of the amount of blood around her I'd say she died between 12:00 and 2:00am.
"Hey detective Beckett" Alexis walked passed Kate she wasn't expecting to see Alexis here Alexis started to look around "oh didn't dad come?" Kate breathed in unsure on how to answer that question she shook her head "uh nah he had a chapter due so I told him to stay home" Kate just smiled she looked back at Lanie "so if that's all for me here I'm going to go back to the precinct" she gave Lanie and Alexis a smile but Lanie could see right through that smile she stood up and asked Alexis if she could tell the other ME's that they were finished with the victim and that they were able to transport it back to the morgue carefully. She caught up to Kate, she cut in front of her and saw a shine in Kates eyes, she stopped her and pulled her away from everyone in view "what the hell Lanie I need to get back to the precinct!" Lanie had scared Kate grabbing her the way she did, "uh uh girl now what's going on what the hell happened between you and Castle, and don't say it's nothing because you look like your just about to cry!".
Kate shook her head she loved Lanie and was very humbled with how much she cared but she couldn't deal with it she had a case to solve "Lanie not now! I have to go" and before Lanie could stop her Kate was on her way to her car.
