Kate stood against the wall next to the principal's office with Castle, waiting for her son to come. She tapped her foot on the floor as she grew impatient. Castle turned to her and said, "Calm down, I'm sure it's not that bad."
"Castle, Liam have been in trouble at least 3 times this MONTH. And you think it's not that bad?" Kate argued.
"Well, he IS 13. Teenage boys can't really help it." Castle responded. "Trust me. I know." He continued.
"Yeah, but you're you. No one knows what exactly you did as a teenager." She said.
Castle furrowed his eyebrows, "That was mean."
"I'm sorry. I'm just stressed. This case is hard and our son had been trouble lately. It's just makes me grouchy." Kate groaned and sat down at the bench near them.
Castle sat down next to her, "Hey, it's okay. We will fixed this problem with Liam and we will help him go past this. For right now, let's just see what he does and we will ground him if need to." He rested his hand on her shoulder.
Kate only nodded and leaned back against the wall. After a few more minutes, Liam finally showed up, looking a little scared as he sees his parents.
"Hi Mom. Hi Dad." Liam said, putting his hands in the pocket of his jeans.
The three walked in the principal's office. "Hello Mr and Mrs. Castle." Dr. Huddle said, standing up to shake both of the parent's hand. "Please sit." She offered. The three sat down on individual chairs.
"As you know, Liam have been causing trouble lately and it's really getting out of control." Dr. Huddle strictly said, looking towards to Liam. "He first spray painted the lockers, saying 'Losers'. He dumped water on a disabled student at lunch. And now today he punch a student and started a fight."
Both parents looked at Liam strictly. "Liam, why are you doing this?" Kate started sternly.
Liam looked at her with his blue eyes and unable to spit something out. "There has to be a reason for all of this." She continued. Still, nothing came out.
Dr. Huddle spoke, "Well, with no reasonable explanation, I'm am going to have to suspend him for a week. He not suppose to be on campus what so ever till the suspension ends."
"Thank you, m'am." Castle said while Kate sat quietly. The three stood up and left the school building.
"I don't know what's up with you lately but you are grounded, mister." Kate confirmed while walking to their car.
"Mom. I had a reason." Liam argued.
"Then, what is it?" Kate questioned and stopped walking. Castle and her both look at him.
"But I can't tell you." Liam responded. "But it is very reasonable." He added as they started walking again.
"Liam, if you're not telling us what it is, we're still going to ground you." Castle said as they got in their car.
The parents turned to the back seat and stared at him. Liam looked at both of them and sighed.
"The spray paint was a dare. Apparently, those are the lockers for the Beta Club." He started.
"And who dared you?" Kate interrupted. "Cody. Cody Harmon." He replied.
"He said if I don't do that, then he would take Rachel's teddy bear and released photoshopped nude photos of her."
Castle and Kate slumped back into their chairs. Liam had always been close to Ryan's youngest daughter, who is the same as age as him.
"The water incident was also a dare. I swear to god, it was the worst thing I've ever done. Matthew had a fear of water and now he hates me."
"What about the kid you had a fight with?" Castle asked, looking at him from the mirrors.
"I punched Cody. He was saying mean things about Rachel and he threaten her multiple times. I couldn't help it. I didn't want her to be embarrassed about something she didn't do and I don't want anything to happen to her." Liam finished quietly with a tear rolling down his cheek.
Castle and Kate looked at each other. "Well, you're still going to be grounded. You really shouldn't done the date. You should have talked to a teacher or the principal." Castle said softly.
They heard Liam sighed. "But we do appreciate you watching over Rachel and making sure nothing happens to her. So you won't be grounded for long." Kate added and looked at her son. Liam has the same protectiveness as Castle does when something happens to people he loves.
"Okay. But now I'm afraid that Cody is still going to do something to her now that I'm suspended." Liam confessed worriedly.
"Why won't you tell Aaron?" Castle asked. Aaron is Espo and Lanie's son, who is also the same age.
"I'm going to text him. He the only other person who knows about this and he's pretty concern too." Liam said, pulling out his phone.
The parent smiled. The three has been best friends since they were born.
"Alright well, let's get going. It's almost time to pick up Jo and Megan at school next store." Kate said, started to drive.
Liam looked at the window and saw Rachel walking out the school building. She smiled at him and waved. Liam gave her slight smirk and waved back.
Castle noticed and smiled at the connection. "Those two are going to get married someday." He thought.
How was it people? Horrible? Good? Stupid? Cheesy? I'm asking you. I accept criticism and would really love if you helped me.
Give me a suggestion for the next one shot!
Thank you!
