Lovers
This is just a piece of fiction that popped in my brain one night. I do not own Castle or any of the characters. Mr. Andrew Marlowe owns Castle and the characters.
This is set in the late '90's and early '00's. Kate and Rick are in their younger years.
Kate Beckett started dating Richard Castle when she was in high school. They were very serious about each other. When things would go sideways for them, they would sit down and discuss the issues like adults not children. It was the best was of communication. Kate seemed to be on top of the world with Rick. They would have their fights and break ups. Neither one would be happy without the other. Time was drawing near for Kate to graduate from high school and to get ready for college.
Kate decided to go into law, just like her parents. Johanna Beckett is a great lawyer who goes to bat for the little man. She is a stunning 5'10" woman with shapely legs, slender body well-toned. She has high cheekbones, hazel eyes, brunette hair, luscious lips, pale color skin. Jim Beckett is a corporate lawyer who stands 6'2" tall. He has brown hair, green eyes a square face with an olive complexion. He loves to work out in the weight room. He likes to keep his physique in great shape for his wife. Together, they are a terrific lawyer team.
Katherine Beckett is a stunning 5'9" gorgeous brunette, long slender legs that goes on for miles, hazel eyes with a hint of gold and green flecks in the iris, luscious lips that is everyman's desire to kiss. Her skin is olive complexion, her body is well defined from working out in the weight room and running.
Richard Castle stand 6'2" tall. He has a round face, with brown hair, ocean deep blue eyes, his lips are to die for when kissing.
Rick was four years older than Kate. He graduated college with a degree in English and competitive writing. He loved to use words to tell his stories. Kate loved the way he made her laugh. It was full of robust and gusto. In the many discussions of literature, she would learn how Rick became a writer. He told of going to the library with Martha, his mother and a man handing him a copy of Casino Royale. That was what it took to inspire his writer's imagination.
Kate explained, that she wanted to become the first female justice on the Supreme Court. Her intentions were to learn everything about the judicial system and put it to good use. He admired her drive for justice for people. Kate would study long hours at the law library, sometimes forgetting about her dates with Rick. He understood that this was important to her. She always made up for forgetting about their dates with plenty of hugs and kisses.
Kate's hard work and study paid off for her. She would graduate with top honors in her college. She could write any ticket she wanted too. Upon graduating she had several law firms wanting to interview her for high prestige jobs. Rick was very proud of Kate, he bought her a beautiful 2.5 carat blue diamond princess cut ring in a platinum setting, he planned to ask her to marry him after her graduation. They were at a very nice restaurant celebrating her graduation, when Rick got down on one knee and asked Kate to marry him. Kate was stunned to say the least. The tears filled her beautiful hazel eyes, she said, yes, yes, Richard Edgar Alexander Rodgers Castle, I will marry you.
Placing the ring on her finger, they kissed and decided to have everyone important to them, meet at the Old Haunt for the celebration of the engagement. Javier, Lanie, Kevin, Jenny, Martha, Johanna, and Jim arrived thirty minutes later. Everyone was wanting to find out what so important that their evening was interrupted.
When everyone was seated Rick raised Kate's left hand to show them her ring. There were a lot of whistles, laughter and congratulations from everyone. Jim welcomed Rick into the family as did Martha welcome Kate. Many toast were made to the happy couple.
