1. Present
She should have seen it coming, but it didn't stop her from jumping when a hand attached to a cup of coffee was being placed straight ahead of her.
"Jesus, Castle!" She exclaimed as the writer grinned shamelessly at her as he plopped down on his chair before leering at her.
"Not the religious figure you usually refer to me as."
"Hmm..." She nodded blushing. "You are a creature from hell most of the time." She agreed teasing. "Especially when you scare the crap out of your partner."
"Hey!" He protested. "Is it my fault you are easy to scare? Really Beckett, you're a cop!"
"Ha. Ha. Ha." She glared at him but still reached for her coffee.
"And you called me god this morning when..."
"Thank you for the coffee Castle." Kate stressed glaring at him as he shrugged cockily.
"You're welcome, though I don't think it's fair."
"What don't you think is fair?" She asked leaning back into her chair knowing she wouldn't be finishing her paperwork any time soon.
"That the birthday boy has to get the take away coffee, surely there is some law against it or stating that the birthday boy's stunningly beautiful partner – slash- girlfriend should be getting the coffees, even if it's just for today!"
Kate laughed shaking her head. "Birthday boy?"
"Yep! I even have the badge to prove it." He gestured to the small blue badge exclaiming that phrase which he had discovered in his daughter's birthday card to him pinned to his jacket.
Beckett rolled her eyes but couldn't help but smile as she replied dryly. "You know I would never have known it was your birthday Castle!"
He smirked, both of them sharing a private smile before he voiced. "I'm just saying I think my birthday present should be you getting the coffee"
"Oh?" Kate raised her eyebrows. "So what was that present I gave you this morning then?" She sultry teased as Castle blushed, remembering how she had woken him up that morning.
"That was my private birthday present, which I don't mind if you find the urge to repeat later tonight." He winked.
"Dream on birthday boy."
"Oh believe me detective, it's all I'm going to be dreaming off, hell it's all I dream of even when it's not my birthday!"
Kate bit her lip before continuing, "So your public present is a cup of take away coffee?"
"Yes, and you said I was hard to buy for!"
Kate laughed before sighing dramatically as she swivelled in her chair to open her top desk draw. "I suppose if that's all you want" She retrieved a box which had a bright red bow placed on top it. "You don't want this?" She waved the box amused as his eyes followed the movement. "Alright then!" She turned to put it back in the desk draw.
"No!" Castle exclaimed "I accept!" He went to grab the box but she pulled it out of his reach.
"Are you sure? I can just get you a take away coffee instead!"
"No! Box!" He replied pouting like an eight year old.
She laughed fondly at him as she passed him the gift "Happy Birthday Castle." She watched amused as he ripped open the box's lid to discover eagerly what was inside it."
"An used key?" He asked as he took it out of the box. "Ohh was it a key to Roswell!"
"No." Kate shook her head. "Castle Roswell-"
"It's my birthday!"
She sighed smiling sweetly. "It's not a key to Roswell Castle, it's a key that is very much in use today."
"Hmm..." He pretended to think about it before exclaiming "A key to your apartment!"
"You've already got one!"
"Oh right..." He realised nodding as she rolled her eyes. "Erm... is it a key to your heart?"
"Seriously?"
"What?"
"That's like the cheesiest thing ever, who does that?"
Castle shrugged.
"It's not a key to my heart Castle!" She sighed.
"Yeah because that's another key I've got." He grinned happily as she rolled her eyes groaning but couldn't help but feel the urge to kiss him develop.
"Guess again Castle and please try to be serious about it."
"Fine, you have no fun – even if it is my birthday!" He fake glared before giving all of his attention to the key in front of him, Kate watched in amusement and slightly disbelief that he didn't know what it was to.
"Hey bro! Happy Birth-"
"SHH!" Castle intruppted as Kate looked up to see a wounded Esposito.
"He hasn't figured it out yet." She gave as an explanation which cast aside Espositio's kicked puppy look.
"Ahh." Esposito nodded as Ryan looked on in amusement.
"Can't believe you don't know what it is." Ryan smiled.
"They know!" Castle pouted looking at Kate. "That is so not fair."
Kate rolled her eyes again as Esposito added. "Come on bro, figure it out, we've got a present for you ourselves."
"Really?" Castle's attention diverted for the key briefly at the sound of more presents.
"Yeah, a body has dropped and..."
Castle literally squealed as his turned to Kate, his eyes aflame with excitement.
"IT'S THE KEY TO YOUR SQUAD CAR!"
Kate laughed. "Yes it is Castle."
"So does this mean... I mean..."
Kate nodded. "You can drive my car Castle, but only for today!" She stressed
Castle looked chocked up before he whooped with joy and ignoring all the rules they had firmly put in place when they had decided to give 'them a shot' he reached over a placed a firm, loving kiss on her lips.
"Thank you." He whispered as he pulled away, stroking her hair back to be behind her ear.
"You're welcome." Kate smiled.
"Also thank you for not telling me off for breaking our... well your no PDA while at work rule."
"Why is it just Beckett's rule?" Esposito asked.
"Well it was both of ours but then we were in my office and OW!" He glared at Kate who had stepped on his foot.
"We've got a crime scene to get to Castle."
Castle squealed again and tripped over his own feet and chair in his haste to get up to rush to the lift. "Come on Beckett!" He whined as he was half way through the precinct and she was just getting up.
"I'm coming Castle!" Kate laughed, shaking her head as she grabbed the two forgotten coffees.
"How long do you think it'll be before your regret your birthday gift to your boyfriend?" Ryan teased as Castle interrupted.
"Do you think I could use the siren?"
Kate sighed and turned to Ryan, "I already am"
