Hello, humanity ! First of all, thanks for reading. English isn't my mother language so please excuse my mistakes :) Didn't write any fanfics lately so I'm a little out of practice... The fanfic is written in the time before Castle and Beckett (finally. OMG still can't believe it !) came together.
DISCLAIMER : I neither own Castle nor any of the characters. If I did, oh my I wouldn't be writing this.
It's a monday morning and like everybody, Kate Beckett is no fan of monday mornings. Except Castle's coffee that brightens up every day of her. It was one week after her breakup with Josh and she didn't tell anyone about it yet, not even Lanie who seemed to know more about Kate than she does about herself. Kate isn't sad or torn after he said he doesn't steal what belongs to others, though she enjoyed coming home to an apartment that wasn't empty. Since she's single again and well, even when she was in her relationship she can't get Castle out of her head. She feels a little pathetic for not hiding her obvious attraction to him anymore. Everyone knows it is just a matter of time for them to get together but Kate Beckett wasn't ready back then. The time when he offered her to accompany him to the Hamptons. Not like she didn't want him, more like she didn't want to jump the gun. But now she feels ready to dive into that relationship. He is stuck in her head and she knows he feels the same way about her.
"Good morning, detective." He says with his charming smile as he hands her the cup of coffee. "Morning." She replies and tries to control herself from not jumping him. "Damn, he's so seductive. His cologne is driving me crazy and he wears blue." Kate thinks. "There's a murder uptown, you coming?" Esposito shouts all across the bullpen. Both grab their coats and get into Beckett's car. It'll be a 30 minutes journey and Kate was aroused by just looking into his eyes. Blue eyes, brown hair, blue shirt and this smile. Who can resist ?
"So how are you and Josh doing?" Castle says knowing something must've happened between them. Kate was prepared for anything except that. "We um... We broke up." She knows that's another step for both of them. "Woah, I'm sorry. Shouldn't have asked this. I'm sorry." Actually, Castle isn't sorry, or at least he doesn't know if he should be. "So, how are you doing with that ?" he asked with a comforting voice. " It's actually not hurting as much as I thought it would. We both knew it wouldn't last forever." Kate couldn't lie to him anymore. "There's someone else in my life. He's charming, caring and really handsome." While saying this, she drives to a parking garage, not letting Castle know what she wants. "Oh, that guy is lucky. Does he know about his luck yet ?" The smile left his face. He was okay with Josh because even he knew that it wouldn't be permanent but now that there's a 'someone' in her life again he is deeply disappointed. Not in Kate, in his self for believing that he even had a chance. "Don't think he knows. He's a little clueless sometimes." Kate can't avoid grinning. The car stops on an empty floor. "I want to tell you something about him, Castle." She undoes her seatbelt and turns to Rick. "Please, Kate I don't need to hear anything about this guy what would hurt me even more." Kate rises her finger and places it on his mouth. "Just listen. He's taller than me, very attractive, has brown hair, blue eyes and I'm about to kiss him." Kate removes her finger from his soft lips and presses hers on his. She needed this for so long, this inevitable tension for over 2 years was killing her but now she finally finds relief. Opening her lips to grant him better access, their tongues are duelling yet fighting for dominance. "It's you I desire." Kate whispers in his ear, nipping his ear lobe. "It's always been you. I'm sorry for torturing you so long. I just needed time." "It's okay Kate, every second of waiting was worth it." Her lips found his, again and again. "You're so beautiful Kate. So beautiful." Beckett pushes away, looks into his eyes and smiles. Her eyes darken as Castle's fingers wander downwards her chest.
So that's it for now. I know it's short, it really is. Hope you enjoyed it tough. Next chapter is gonna be longer, promised. Please let me know what you think. So review. :) Lea xx
