A/N: This is intended as a fun, short story combining three of my favorite things: Castle, Selena Gomez, and Burberry! My last story focused on Ryan and was more on the serious side, so with this one I decided to lighten things up with Caskett :) I think Castle has always wanted to make Beckett proud, especially since she became Captain. As always, I would love to hear your feedback/reviews and I hope I do not disappoint. Thank you!
"Beckettttt! Hellllpppp!"
Beckett dashes out of the bathroom and into the closet as fast as she can. She finds Castle, standing in nothing but his boxers and starring at a rack of clothes.
She doesn't bother to catch her breath before asking, "what's the emergency?"
Castle turns to speak, "the worst kind Beckett! It's a FASHION EMERGENCY!"
"SERIOUSLY Castle?" Do you know how lucky you are that I don't have my gun in my hand right now?"
Castle gulps before answering. "Yes and I'm sorry for scarring you but I really can't decide what to wear!"
Beckett smirks before stepping in closer and wrapping her arms around Castle's waist, "well you managed to pick out a pair of underwear, that's a good start."
"And I owe it all to you considering you bought them for me."
It was a navy blue pair from Burberry. Beckett was headed up to the women's floor when she spotted them. The color perfectly matched his eyes and she had already been plotting to make him as big of a Burberry fan as she was. He was a bit shy until she convinced him to try them on. He spent the rest of that night (and most of the next morning) thanking her for them.
"Castle, why are you so worried about what to wear? We're just going to a casual dinner with a small group from the precinct."
"Because Beckett…"
Castle pauses for a moment before he pulls away and walks out of the closet. Beckett follows but stops when she notices him pick up the remote for their CD player and hit play. The song Good For You by Selena Gomez starts playing through the loft. Castle starts swaying along to the music and repeats some of the lyrics to Beckett.
"I just wanna look good for you…"
"Let me show you how proud I am to be yours…"
Beckett smiles and walks over to him. This time, she puts her arms around his shoulders and gives him a kiss.
"I love you. And you will always look good to me."
"I love you too."
They head back towards the closet while dancing along to the music. She helps him pick out a navy blue polo (to match his boxers, but that will be their little secret.) Then she mixes things up with a pair of nice black shorts and sneakers.
"You look great babe! Are you ready?"
"And you look stunning as always. Let's go."
The restaurant was in walking distance from the loft and they arrived right as the rest of their group was walking in. While Castle was greeting everyone, Beckett couldn't help but overhear all the compliments he was receiving.
"Looking good Castle!"
"Nice shirt dude!"
"Love the sneakers!"
Castle turned to Beckett and they shared a smile, "I owe it all to Beckett."
One of the other guys turns to the rest of the group and says, "That's it boys, we all need to start shopping at Burberry!"
Everyone laughs.
