It was Friday night and it was the annual get together with Esposito, Lanie, Castle, Ryan and Beckett. The gang arrived at the Old Haunt around 7:00. They all had off the next day and they were going to party all night. After about the sixth or seventh round of drinking they were all wasted except for one. Castle wasn't allowed to drink because he was on pain killers after throwing out his back while chasing down a suspect with Beckett. All of his friends including Kate were totally wasted, that's when they had the bright idea to play truth or dare. Everyone agreed to a couple of rounds, but Castle was a little hesitant. He wasn't sure about playing truth or dare while being sober, but then again no of his friends would remember what he or they would do anyway, or so he thought. Lanie asked the first question "Truth or Dare Kate?" Lanie knew her friend would never give up the chance to get a good dare and Lanie had the perfect dare in mind. Kate happily replied with a smirk on her face "DARE" Lanie then replied with a sarcastic remark "You asked for it honey" she then continued to tell Kate the dare "I dare you to take Castle's shirt of only using your teeth" Kate's cheeks flushed all different sorts of colors as she turned to Castle. Kate was in fact was not drunk but only acting like it because she had lunch plans with her dad the next day and didn't want her father to see her with a hangover. She knew that Castle thought she was drunk, so he probably wouldn't mind, plus it was a dare after all she didn't ask to do it. As Kate and Castle's eyes meet chills ran down her back and the look on his face brightened the room 10 times more. Kate said to Castle "Are you going to make me wait all day, get over here" Castle was a little taken back by what Kate said and the fact that she was actually going to go through with this but he quickly stood up in front of Kate. Kate looked up and down his buff body. Not wanting to waste any more time Kate lowered herself down to the hem of Castle's shirt. She put her lips and her body almost melted when she felt the soft yet firmness of his skin. Castle almost fainted. Kate decided to have some fun. She teased Castle by slowly pulling his shirt up and letting her tongue slide up his bare chest. During this heated event Castle heart pumped at 100 times the speed it was normally. When Kate reached the top of Castle's neck she pressed herself up against him and she could feel his erection and it melted her. Then after a second she slid away from him leaving Castle in shock. All Castle could mutter was the word "Wow" Lanie, Esposito and Ryan were all laughing and Kate sat down with a pride in herself. After Castle pulled his shirt completely off and caught his breath he sat down. He could wait to see what Kate would come up with or who she would ask.
