They cleaned my apartment. So I had to sleep on the precinct, because I didn't want to go to hotel and I didn't want to bother my dad. I had the bag hidden under the table and I was hoping that Gates didn't recognize it for those four days yet. In the evening, when it seemed that the precinct is empty, I took the bag and went to restroom. I snuggled into blankets and after short moment I fell asleep. Meanwhile, when I slept, Gates talked with Castle.
"Mr. Castle, please take detective Beckett home. She may think that I did not notice, but I know that she sleeps here for four days," she said Gates. Castle was a little bit surprised about it, but he nodded.
"Okay. I'll take her to my place. Can I just ask, why are you asking me?" he asked.
"I know that you are in love with Beckett and if you decide to be together, I will tolerate it, if you continue to behave professionally." Castle nodded and went into the restroom. He wrapped me in a blanket and took my bag and me into his arms and carried me into the car. We went to his home. He put me into his bed, he took off my pants and covered me with a blanket. I just grumbled a bit and I slept on. Sometime in the night, a storm started. I woke up. I looked around. I did not recognize the place where I was located. I started screaming and I ran out of the room. I tried to run away. I managed to open the door and I ran away. A hand grabbed my shoulder. I turned and I strongly punch the man in the face. He turned on the light. Castle stood before me holding his face. I was still a little confused, so I had just stood there. Only after a while I realized what had happened. I hugged him and he put his hands around me.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," I stammered. Castle looked angry at first but then he smiled at me. He pressed me to him and hugged me tighter.
"That's good, Beckett. Are you okay?" he asked. I smiled.
"I'm not the one who got punched. I'm fine, I was just a little scared where I am," I laughed and I pulled ice from the freezer. I pressed it on his cheek. For a moment he complained of pain, but then gently kissed me on the cheek. I blushed. I ran into the bedroom and sat on the bed. I grabbed a blanket over myself and I was watching storm. Castle came to me and hugged me. He held me in his arms and kissed my hair.
"It doesn't matter. I shouldn't have done it," said Castle, and kissed me on hair again.
"But you're doing it again," I said and I laughed.
"I cannot help it. You're very beautiful," he whispered in my ear. I unbuttoned my shirt and showed him my scars. He was blinking at me in surprise for a moment and then put his hand on each of the scar. We both closed eyes and I was panting. I had a problem to deal with so many emotions, but I tried for Castle, for both of us. When Rick put his hand away from my body, I felt the scars on his lips. First on the side of my body and then he kissed the scar between my breasts. Then he buttoned my shirt again and kissed me.
"You should get some sleep, Kate. I'll be there with you if you want," he offered. I nodded and I was lying in his arms. In the morning we explained everything to each other. He told me why I slept at his place, what he told Gates and what she told him. Then we were shouting at each other for a moment, and at the end we started kissing two bodies became one. We have combined our love together. We stayed wrapped in each other's arms and we just stood in the kitchen. I was happy because my dream finally became a reality.
The End
