Kate was 7 months pregnant. With Josh. One night they forgot the condom and 6 weeks later Kate found out that she is pregnant. She left her apartment and moved toward him. She stayed with him only because of the child. She didn't want the child to grow without dad. In a drawer in the nightstand she had a paper where it said: "I love you, Rick. But I can't tell it to you." Two days before that fateful night Josh found the paper. The next day they went to check and doctor told them that they will have a baby boy. The next day, Kate was all day at the precinct. She returned in the evening. As soon as she opened the door, there were suitcases with her things and Josh waiting for her.
"I wrapped you all your clothes. I kept all things we have for the baby. It's over. Give me the keys here, "Josh said quietly. Kate nodded. She removed the key from her and placed it on the table.
"I stayed with you just because of the little boy. I see that it didn't have meaning. You found that paper, didn't you? "Kate asked.
"Yeah I found. You lied to me all the time! Get out! "he yelled at her and gave her a slap. Kate took the suitcases and slammed the door behind her. She loaded things into the car and drove to the Castle. All things she left in the car and went up. She slightly knocked on the door. Rick was home alone because Alexis was with her boyfriend and Martha was in the theater. He went to the door and opened it. Kate just stood there with her hands on her stomach and her head bowed. Rick took her hand and invited her inside. They sat together on the couch.
"Is something wrong?" he asked.
"Josh and I broke up. He threw me out of the apartment. Can I stay here tonight, please?" she asked with a shaky voice.
"Yes of course. You can stay here with the baby as long as you want. Above is a spare room, you will stay there, "he said and grabbed her hand. Kate hugged him and squeezed him hard. "Thank you. Thank you so much. It means so much to me. Will you help me with my suitcases? It stayed down in the car, "Kate whispered.
"Sure." They went down and took Kate's suitcases into her new room.
"Go take a shower and then come down, okay?" he asked. Kate nodded and 15 minutes later she lacked stairs into the living room. Castle wasn't there. He sat in his office and on the table laid paper where Kate wrote her feelings. Kate stayed in the kitchen and made some tea. Rick came up to her and hugged her from behind. Kate winced and turned to face him.
"I don't want to bother you. I don't want to interfere," she said. Rick put his finger to her lips.
"Don't talk. You don't bother. We will arrange room for you and your baby. I'll take care of you both, "he put his hands on her belly and she smiled.
"This means a lot. I don't know how to thank you, "said Kate.
"You haven't to thank. Now take the tea and go to bed, it's late and you need to rest, "Castle said. Kate took the cup, gave him a kiss on his cheek and went up to her room. When she finished her tea she went to bed and around midnight she fell asleep.
