Warning Spoilers ahead for 5x02 based on the info that came out today, but if you didn't see it then this will probably just be amusing.. that or a dumb idea...
Castle's not mine... sigh...
Dumb Idea
Her door looked very solid when I finally managed to leave the loft without Alexis noticing and only a lifted eyebrow from my mother. It was her idea. It was all her idea but her reaction was just a little too real for her not to have lingering feelings. So I took a deep breath and rapped on the door. It was a solid minute I held my breath as I waited for her to let me in.
And it was a desperate breath in when she opened the door and walked back into the living room without so much as a word. Scrambling to follow her and mitigate the damage I tried, "Hey."
"Hey," it was a short hey, an I'm annoyed with you hey, as she crossed back to the bottle of wine and singular wine glass on the counter. Still not turning to face me or, even really consider my presence.
Well that was simply not going to work. Not at all. Shucking my jacket, I crossed to her, crowding her against the counter as I slid my hands around her waist sneaking a few fingers under the hem of the purple v-neck. I was rewarded with the hitch of her breath before spun her around.
The spark of annoyance was still in her eye as he lifted her head in defiance, even as her hands land on my chest. "It was your idea," I remind her before I'm capturing her lips in a kiss, possessive on a level that she probably wouldn't appreciate normally but I haven't touched her in two days and she's being irrationally jealous.
She's still for just a second before her fingers curl into my shirt pulling me closer, forcing her tongue inside my mouth to stoke the embers already flaring, pulling a groan from me as I slid my hands into her jean pockets to hold her as close as possible.
She finally pulled back, letting her head fall against my cheek. "It was a dumb idea." She breathes against me as I feel her eyes fluttering closed against my check. "It worked, but it was a dumb idea."
"Dumb idea," I agree breathing in the cherry shampoo scent, before the rest of the words processed. "Wait it worked?"
She chuckled and leaned back smiling up at me. "Yeah, Lanie is pissed because she knows I'm having sex but if it's not with you then she's got no clue. And I had to stop the boys from talking some sense into you."
I laughed, "You mean knocking some sense into me."
"Javi." She agreed, "Kevin just wanted to talk to you. He did say that Jenny has a lot of cousin's if you were so intent on dating other people."
"Jenny has more cousins?" One was bad enough.
She lifted a hand up to my cheek, "Jenny's cousins. That's what you're focusing on."
I look back at her eyes all trace of annoyance from earlier gone. Now just mirth sparkling in the depths of the green. "Right. It worked." I nod, "No one aside from my mother knows that we're sleeping together."
She grins, "Is that all we are? Sleeping together?" There's a jest in her voice but it's a serious question.
I duck in for a kiss, "Nope. We're partners." Kissing her again, "in everything."
"Partners?" Her hands sliding up my arms to cup the base of my neck as she lifts up on her toes to give me kisses of her own.
My hands were out of her pockets and under her shirt, covering the soft expanses of skin that I was only just getting to know. She pulled away walking towards the bedroom, fingertips tripping down my arm, before I could get any satisfaction out of it. "Let's go to bed partner," her voice low and sexy and just teasing enough that I was scrambling after her.
Any thoughts?
