Enchanted- Taylor Swift
"I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you"
He was talking to the mayor when he saw her out of the corner of his eye. When she entered the room all eyes were on her. He couldn't stop staring at her either. She was the most beautiful woman in the room. He's seen models and actresses but they all had nothing on her. He had never seen her before, but he knew right away that he had to meet her. He saw that she was talking to his old buddy, Captain Montgomery, and he took that as an opportunity to meet her. He excused himself from his conversation with the mayor and headed towards her.
"Roy! Long time no see," Castle greeted.
"Rick Castle! Hey, how's it going?" replied Montgomery.
"It's been good. Gina's been hassling me to get the next draft to her though," said Castle.
"The life of a writer I'm guessing," laughed Montgomery
"Haha don't you know it. Who is this beautiful woman next to you?" asked Castle, turning to face her.
"Oh my apologies. Castle this is one of my detectives. Kate Beckett. Kate, this is Rick Castle the…"
"The novelist. I know," interrupted Kate. Castle started to squirm as he saw her studying him.
"Ah. A fan I presume?" asked Castle casually.
"Haha you wish , Mr. Castle," retorted Kate.
"I do."
Kate chose to ignore his comment. "So what is a best-selling author doing at a police gala?"
"Mayor's a friend and he invited me. I thought I would come. It's another thing I can do instead of writing," replied Castle.
"So you're here out of boredom?" Kate joked.
"I guess you could say that," shrugged Castle.
"Castle here would do anything to get out of writing sometimes" said Montgomery, with a smile.
"Let me guess. Writer's block?" teased Kate.
"No! I don't have that. Ouch How could you say that? I am here doing research" said Castle, feigning a hurt expression, before smiling back at Kate.
"Haha whatever you say Castle. Now if you two will excuse me, I believe I owe my wife a dance, said Montgomery, leaving the couple to themselves.
Castle and Kate watched Montgomery head over to the dance floor with his wife. While Kate was looking at the pair dance, Castle took the time to study her up close. She was even more breathtaking than he thought was possible.
"So Detective Beckett, may I have this dance?" asked Castle, holding out his hand.
"Yes you may," smiled Kate.
The pair spent the rest of the night dancing and talking. Castle felt this strong connection to her and he was pretty sure she felt it too. There was just something about her. Everything felt right. It was just like magic. It was enchanting.
