Fall For You – Secondhand Serenade

Fights

Yelling

Screaming

Crying

That's all it's been for a month straight between the writer and detective. Yes, things were rough. With the wedding planning and the long, strenuous cases at the 12th, things have been rough between Castle and Beckett.

"What the hell Kate! It's three in the morning! I thought we agreed that you would try to come home at a decent time!" Castle shouted right when the door to the loft opened reviling the detective.

"I'm trying Castle! You know this case is complicated!" Kate yelled back, throwing her arms into the air.

"Then try harder Kate! We have plans to make, you know for OUR wedding! If you don't want to marry me, just say it Beckett. You don't have to blow me off every night and every dinner I make for us." Castle retorted, starting out screaming and then getting quieter.

"Rick you know damn well I want to marry you! So don't pull that shit on me! I love you, okay!" Kate said, moving towards the writer, "Do not think otherwise. Yes, I stay at work for too long, that's just how I am and you know that."

Castle backed away, still facing the detective, "Well if this is who you are, blowing me off for work, blowing off our plans for work, then maybe I need to think about things." And with that he went to his room and sat on his bed, running his hands over his face.

Kate sat down her bag and took off her shoes, heading into their room. She walked in front of him, dropped a kiss to his hair, "I'm sorry Rick." She then went into the bathroom, closing the door between Castle and her. Beckett stripped of her clothing while the shower ran. She slipped in and let the hot water wash away the grime of the day. His words echoed through her head as she sat down under the spray, the water and sound covering her sobs. After a few minutes, she got out and dressed in his shirt that she found on the floor. Kate slipped into the room to find him asleep, deciding to get into their bed alongside him.

This is how every night would end. No matter how mad, no matter what harsh words were said, they always slept side by side.

He was gone by the time she woke to leave for work the next day. There was a muffin, banana nut, her favorite, sitting on the counter with a note that read "I love you. No more fighting. I love you and don't make me change my mind. 7 o'clock tonight. I will make all of my cruel words up to you if you just show up on time." She smiled and took a bite of the muffin. Tonight she would be home on time, both of them were wearing thin straight to the core of their relationship that meant more than any case, she just took a little too long to realize it.

True to her word, Kate was home by seven.

"This is my trying."

The note lay right in the middle of the entry way to the loft, Rick's handwriting spelling out each word with light pen strokes. On the coffee table she saw another note.

"Tonight will be the night I will fall for you over again."

She smiled, noticing the song lyrics that he was using. He was a sap, she will give him that, and she loves him for it. Another note was on the Tv.

"Talk is cheap. Meet me on the roof."

Opening the door to the roof, she saw him, the man she first fell in love with three years ago. Kate ran to him, hugging him full force. His scent, his feel, all of him, she loved. She took a deep breath, taking in the smell of him.

"I failed Castle… I failed you. I let work take over when I started to feel too much. I won't, I can't live without you Rick. I found you once, I can't let you go. I didn't intend for work to take over again. I may have failed at that, I know, and I thought I was stronger now that I had you, but I guess I just went back to my old self. I may have failed but I have loved you from the start and all the way through this hell we put ourselves through." She held her breath, waiting for his response.

"Breath Kate, I love you too. I'm all yours Kate, I'm not going anywhere." He kissed her softly, "Hold onto your words, remember the note? Talk is cheap, Kate. Just be here with me. The best thing about tonight is this right here, no yelling, and no fighting. I don't think it's been this way before tonight for a while, and there won't be any more fighting after tonight."

They stayed on the roof wrapped in each other's arms for quite a while until Kate fell asleep against Castle's chest. He carried her back to their bed, both falling asleep the right way, wrapped around one another.
