Drabble One:
Foreboding
And in your heart,
You know it to be true,
You know what you gotta do.
They all depend on you.
And you already know.
Yeah, you already know how this will end.
How it Ends
-DeVotchKa
"I cannot make Beckett stand down, Castle. I never could. And the way I figure, the only one who can is you."
Montgomery's words sink like lead in my stomach, cold and hard. What if I can't? I know what I'm asking her to do.
I know her.
I know the way she'll fight it. Run into danger head on and forget about everyone who wants her to continue breathing.
I don't expect her to listen. But I need her to.
She asks what we are.
I don't know.
But she's wrong if she thinks we're over. It's impossible.
She's become part of me. The blood in my veins. The air in my lungs.
I can't lose her. Not now. Not ever.
