Hey I'm back and hopefully this will get a complete fanfiction... ;)

One word before I start: This is totally ESPLANIE...it's Esplanie all the way! There will be NO caskett, because right know I can't take any more of these two! I know I'm nearly alone with this opinion, but it is what it is...

Oh... and English isn't my mother tongue, so please forgive spelling mistakes:

It starts 6 months after "Watershed"

"Hey, what 's going on, " Esposito asked his girlfriend, after he had watched her, while she chewed her lower lip, a sign that she was nervous.

Lanie grabbed his hand and intertwined her fingers with his . "You know I had lunch with Angela today, " Lanie told, while she played nervous with his fingers.

"Yeah, but why are you so nervous now ," Esposito asked confused, she was adoreable when she was that nervous, but he knew it was better not to tell her that.

"She offered me a job . Nothing long-range, just half a year as a guest lecturer," Lanie told him.

"But that sounds great. You are certainly a great teacher , so where is the hacking of the matter , " asked Esposito , who felt that there had to be more.

"It would be a job at the Stanford School of Medicine " Lanie replied quietly.

"Wow, that's ... quite far away , " Esposito said softly .

"I know. And it would really appeal to me , but I don't want to end up like Beckett and Castle. I mean things a great betwenn us, we had just moved in together and I 'm really happy as it is now. I don't want to risk that. I'm going to cancel ," decided Lanie and wanted to get up to get her phone as Javier held her on the wrist. Although the two were back together only since Valentine's Day, Lanie had overcome her fears and asked him to move in with her shortly after Kate went to DC, because she had realized that she wanted him, that she wanted a live with him.

"Hey, not so fast . We won't end up like Castle and Beckett , I think you should really consider taking this job," replied her boyfriend .

"Do you want to get rid of me, " Lanie asked skeptically.

Javier shook his head and pulled her onto his lap. "I really don't want to spend any day away from you ," said Javier and gently kissed her cheek. "But it would be selfish of me to ask you to stay here because of me . If you want it , then go and take this job . It's only half a year and I promise, I 'll be there for you , " Esposito explanied quietly.

"Do you really think it'll work? I mean look at Kate and Rick," Lanie murmured , thinking of the nearly broken relationship between the author and the FBI agent . Although Kate had accepted his proposal, she always comes up with new excuses to keep Rick at distance and didn't want that he moved in with her in DC. Beckett also avoided contact with the boys or Lanie.

"Lanie, we're not Castle and Beckett. Alone , that you told me at once, shows that we're different. Besides, I know where you are. Unlike Castle I know where my woman is . I mean you don't have any top-secret stuff you can't tell me. We will , unlike Beckett and Castle talk to each other. Because that is my condition , I want to hear your voice at least once a day, " said the investigator , before he pushed her hair behind her ear and kissed her neck.

"Thank you Javi , " Lanie whispered and kissed him long .

"For what ?" asked Javier.

"You are giving me the feeling that nothing will change ," she said smiling.

"Because nothing will change . I love you, I always will,"said the detective , smiling , and she could read in his eyes that he meant it.

"I love you too," she whispered, kissing him passionately as she began to unbutton his shirt. She was supposed to call Angela and compel to the job, but actually it had also time until tomorrow , at least she would have to deal without him for long enough.

"Last call for passengers to San Francisco, " it echoed through the check-in hall.

" You have to go ," stated Esposito, while he held Lanie in his arms.

She had clung to him and her eyes closed. "I know , but I don't want to," she mutterd and came off a little from him, to look him in the eye.

"Take me back home with you ," she pled , and when he looked at her, there was nothing he would have wanted more.

"Hey , those are just 6 months time will pass quickly and you'd regret it if you don't get on this plane now, " Javier said softly.

Lanie knew that he was right. She reached up and kissed him once again for a long time.

"I love you Javier Esposito," she whisperd after their lips had parted .

"I love you too, " he replied , while Lanie took her bag to go to the check-in counter .

"Call when you arrived ," he asked, while he let go of her hand.

"I'll call when I get there, " promised Lanie , turned around again and kissed him.

"I really have to go now , " she smiled, finally got away from him and went to the counter.

Esposito looked at her, as she handed her passport and the ticket to the employee of the Airline, and took everything from her in. Her beauty , her long hair falling over her shoulders , that dazzling smile , she gave him and the glint in her eyes as she winked at him. He let his gaze wander over the attractive curves of her body and Lanie had to know in which direction his thoughts went, because she swayed her hips a bit more than normal, while walking away. When she winked at him once more over the shoulder before she disappeared from his sight field, Javier was sure that it would be hell of a long six months .

So, what do you think?
