Chapter 1:
"Tell me you need me." Those were the first words out of his mouth, and for a moment, Kate Beckett thought that Rick knew that she remembered. That she remembered him saying those three words that she could never forget. Kate hesitated for a second, thinking of what to say.
"Excuse me?" It was now or never, if he asked if she knew, Kate would admit it. She would admit that she heard him, that she remembered what he had said, and that she was in love with Rick Castle.
"Im stuck at the bank helping my mother get a loan from my banker. Please tell me that there is a murder somewhere that we can be solving." She let out a breath that she didn't even know she was holding, as she heard him complain about his mother.
"Ah sorry no dead bodies just a lot of paperwork. But you`re welcomed to come and do your share. For once."
"The only thing worse than being here, is being there doing paperwork. "
"You know how come we`re partners when I`m chasing down bad guys, and as soon as there`s paperwork I`m on a solo mission?" Rick listened to her through the earpiece, but noticed the people in doctors scrubs holding their jackets.
"Huh." He watched the man give the woman a signal as he scratched his nose.
"What?" Kate could tell that he was thinking about something.
"I think this bank is about to be robbed," he said as he moved from his position so get a better view of the "doctors."
"Really? Are you that bored?"
"There`s a man, and a woman here. Dressed in scrubs. And both of them have suspicious buldges in their jackets," he looks over to his mother to see if she is almost finished. He knew that something was wrong, he knew something was about to go down.
She knew him very well. They were partners, they were best friends. They have been to hell and back together. "Castle, I think you`re writers imagination is acting up." She thought that it was just his inner child trying to keep himself occupied.
Well she was wrong, "EVERYBODY GET DOWN ON THE FLOOR!" She heard it all through the phone. Fear was coursing through her veins.
"Its not my imagination. Its defiantly not my imagination." That was all he could say to defend himself. Instinctively he ran to his mother to keep her safe.
"Castle what's happening?" Kate hears all of the commotion in the background, trying to listen to her partners voice. No response, next question."Where are you?"
"I`m at the New Amsterdam Bank and Trust on Lex," he whispered, shielded his mother, and watched the robbers order everybody.
"Esposito, there`s a 10-30 at New Amsterdam and Trust on Lex. Call dispatch." She watched the confusion come on to her partners faces.
"10-30? Since when are we handling bank robbery calls," Detective Kevin Ryan asked Kate. They handled murders not robbery, that's why there was a different department for robbery.
"Castle`s there!" Kate tried to stay as calm as possible. For Ricks sake, for Kevin and Javier's sake. They didn't need to see her wondering if this was the last time she would ever talk to her partner. If this was the last time that she would ever hear his voice. Her mind was going 100 a minute and she didn't even have time to stop and think if she should confess her love. It hadn't even occurred to her that he would never know how she felt about him.
