A/N: This is my first ever attempt at a Castle story so your thoughts and views would be very much appreciated. (Taken from 'Love and Die in LA…..sofa scene!) It is rather short and for that, I apologise.

"Even now after spending all this time with you I'm still amazed at the depths of your strength, your heart and your hotness."
"You're not so bad yourself Castle."
They held each other's steady gaze looking to into the other's eyes; three years of unspoken and hidden feelings were about to overflow. Neither one of them knew who closed the gap between them all they knew is that their lips were attached and they weren't about to let go. The two of them had avoided their feelings for far too long to let this moment pass. Wrapping his arms round her waist he pulled her closer to him, pressing his lips a little harder against hers, her mouth opening under the pressure allowing their tongues to dance together each releasing a happy sigh at the contact.
Her hands slid upwards and she ran her hands through his hair pressing her body impossibly closer to his while his hands gripped the sides of her waist and in one swift movement he had her on his lap, smirking against her lips when she left out a small scream from the back of her throat. One of his hands came up and gently moved the dark locks that had fallen over her face and pushed them behind her ear then stroked her cheek with the pad of his thumb revelling in the smoothness and silkiness that he felt there.
Gradually, slowly and reluctantly they stopped the kiss drawing back from each other in order to breathe. Little by little, Castle drew his eyes up to meet hers and for a moment he thought she was going to run for it. Instead she smiled while biting down on her bottom lip then she leant forward and embraced him in a hug, sighing in contentment kissing the top of his head. Castle accepted the embrace and sighed in relief! They remained like that for a while longer, enjoying the contact and the comfortable silence that washed over the room. Beckett shifted slightly and Castle looked up at her, his eyes gleamed with happiness and the sigh of it nearly made her cry.
"I ought to go to bed" she whispered her forehead rested on his. "It's getting late and we have to be in the morning. I did fly to LA for a reason."
Castle sighed and pouted a little. Placing a finger under his chin she tipped it so he was looking at her. "There is always tomorrow evening. Goodnight Rick." With that she slipped off his lap, turned and headed towards her own room. Just as she reached the door a hand got hold of her arm; Turning her round he placed a sweet and tender kiss to her lips. "Goodnight Kate" he whispered before releasing her once more.
