Its a bit OOC but I just really wanted to write something. This is in an AU but it could go in season four maybe like after cuffed.

I realize that I am not a good writer and this is my first attempt at smut (2nd chapter) so be gentle to me in your reviews but if you have any constructive criticism that would be great to include so that I can improve my writing.

Disclaimer: I do not own these characters they belong to ABC and the wonderful, awesomesauce, brilliant AWM :)

Kate Beckett and Richard Castle were good friends. They were partners and helped each other though every case. They both wanted to be together, for a long time now. Ever since that kiss she had wanted him so badly. She just needed to find the right time to tell him. But it needed to happen soon she was so in love and she never wanted him to leave her side. He had her back and she knew that.

Castle invited Beckett over for diner. They usually had dinner together just as friends laughing and having a good time. Alexis and Martha were gone for a while. Martha had decided to take a weekend vacation with Alexis to go shopping and Castle had relentlessly agreed to let Martha take his credit card. How stupid of me who knows what they could possibly come back with..

After dinner they decided to watch a movie.

"Castle, what movie do you want to watch?"

"You're the lady, you pick!" She rolled her eyes.

"Lets do this one" She pointed to the movie in the case.

They stuck it in and began. Kate was getting tired and snuggled up next to Castle on the couch. He was very comforting and soon she was fast asleep. Beckett had never fallen asleep at his house on their dinner and movie nights before.

He noticed her beautiful sleeping soundly in his arms. He picked up the remote and turned the TV off, he did not want to wake her. He slowly scooted from under her. He observed her sleep on his couch for a while taking in the beauty that lay before him.

He picked her soft body up and walked her to the bedroom laying her down. He kissed the top of her head like a father would do to his daughter. He said goodnight and went out to the living room. He had decided to sleep on the couch. Castle had slowly drifted to sleep but soon heard noises coming from the bedroom. He was a bit worried as he heard faint cries. He needed to go see what was wrong. He needed to protect her.

"Castle. Oh god Castle no. No! I love you !."

Castle was startled and rushed over to the side of the bed she was on. Her soft leg was sticking out from under the covers and part of her back was exposed. Her face was buried deep into the pillow.

"Kate." he said in a soft voice has he kneeled on the side of the bed, as a young child would do as if they were saying their prayers.

He lifted her head slowly off the pillow as gently as he could so that he wouldn't startle her. Her green eyes looked deeply into the sea of blue that gazed at her. He wiped the tears on her cheeks off her face and sat beside her. He slowly helped her sit up as trying not to expose any more of her body than what already was. She pulled the sheets over her so that Castle would not see anything, she didn't want him to, not just yet. But even if she was totally naked in front of her he wouldn't look. He had too much respect for her. He didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable and that's what made Castle such a great guy.

"Kate."

"Ye-ah" she said as she was having trouble finding words.

"What's up? You were saying my name. Is everything okay?"

Beckett and Castle usually kept things to themselves. They did not speak openly to each other about their feelings. Kate just wanted him now and she could not keep telling herself she didn't. She wanted her wall to come down and she wanted Castle to help her. She wanted to speak openly with him and now was the time.

"No Castle nothing is okay I don't want to lose you!" She turned in bed facing away from him, scooting to the other side.

"I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere. What happened?"

"Bad dream.. Y-you were shot and it was my f-fault. You followed me and I didn't mean for-"

"Shh Kate everything is fine. I am right here."

He did something Kate did not expect. She was still turned away from him when she felt his warm hand on her back rubbing in tiny circles. She was startled but content. She didn't mind anymore, she was so madly in love with him.

"Kate I am just going to stay here awhile. There won't any silly business." He was still fully clothed and he wasn't planning on taking anything off.

To his surprise she turned to him and scooted closer nestling her head on his chest. He put both of his arms around her never wanting to let her go and squeezed her tight to his chest. She fell asleep in his arms and he laid her on the bed and snuggled next to her keeping her warm. He pulled the sheets on top of them and he slowly drifted off to sleep.

Sun shined through the window Castle opened his eyes and found Kate snuggled up against him just like he had left her there. He got up quickly to close the curtains, afraid that she was going to wake. It was darker in the room now and he walked back to the bed and snuggled up next to her again. Her face was so cute and her hair was falling all down around her face framing it as if it were a perfect photograph. She blinked and opened her eyes.

Hope you guys enjoyed! Reviews Please:)
