Caskett Undercover

Disclaimer: I own NOTHING that pertains to Castle! That is all ABC's business. (I'm like Shultz, I know nothing!)

So you want a description huh? Castle and Beckett go undercover looking for a huge drug dealer/murderer, & things get a bit complicated when they find out things are going to be.

It was 4:32 when Beckett and Castle arrived to their new apartment building. "Ahhh, I know this building well" Beckett thought, taking in the familiar scent of the ancient building. There was nobody sitting at the lobby desk, which didn't seem out of the ordinary to Beckett, but what caught her off guard was the fact that the entire apartment building seemed completely abandoned, with the exception of her and Castle.

Castle then came bounding in, his luggage in tow, making as much noise as he possibly could. "Hey Beck…"

"SHHH!" Castle was interrupted by her in mid-statement, as she turned quickly on her heel and moved briskly towards him. "Do you want to blow our cover?" Beckett whispered, turning back around to head toward the old spiral staircase leading to the second floor.

"Ok sweetie." Castle added, keeping his cover as Beckett's boyfriend, only she thought he was enjoying it a bit too well. "But darling, isn't there an elevator we can take?" He complained.

Beckett stopped going up the stairs, rolled her eyes and turned to look at the loaded down man pulling up the rear. "Well, dear…you are the one who insisted on carrying everything!" , chimed Beckett, taking a few bags from Castle's grasp. Together they climbed the spiral stairs, (fortunately for Castle only one flight) and reached their room.

Beckett noticed, as Castle was digging around in his pockets for the key they had been given to their apartment, the floor they were on was practically abandoned too, just as quiet and empty as the lobby downstairs. When Castle finally found his key, he put it in the door handle, turned it and opened the door to their small apartment.

When they walked in, the first thing to be seen was a rather small living room/kitchen, with all the furnishings straight out of the eighties, and by the looks of things, it hadn't been touched…since the eighties.

Castle, being the explorer he was, decided rather quickly to drop his things and check out the bathroom and bedroom. Being the first one, he got to see how he and Beckett were to sleep, and in doing so, he found out something he knew Beckett would NOT like. When he came out of the bedroom, he had a mischievous smirk on his face, and of course Beckett knew he was up to something.

"You um uhhh…you aren't going to like what you find in the bedroom" Castle added, his smirk fading to a more straight face.

Beckett wasn't sure she then wanted to see what horrible thing was in the bedroom. She knew that they were going to have to share a room and a bathroom, which she felt she could live with, but when Detective Kate Beckett walked into the bedroom that she and Richard Castle were going to have to share for at least the next two weeks, she dropped everything on the floor, including her jaw.

The windows and curtains were fine, there was a door leading into the bathroom, and there was a decent sized walk-in closet for the two of them to share, two separate dressers, and a nightstand, which Beckett let out a mental 'yes!' when she saw it was on her side of the bed, but when Kate Beckett saw that there was only ONE bed in there (queen size), she was absolutely furious. "I told them TWO beds!" Beckett thought, her mind racing, wanting to know which imbecile (either Esposito or Ryan) she was going to have to impale when she got back to the precinct.

"Yeah um, so…" Castle trailed off as he came up behind her.

"Castle" Beckett said his name with a firm tone in her voice.

"No worries, I'll sleep on the couch. It really isn't a big deal. But I am sure going to find some awfully wretched way of getting Ryan and Esposito back for this." Castle informed Beckett, and began to gather their things to put away for their stay.

After everything was put away, Castle and Beckett ordered Chinese, and ate in the living room, talking about what was to come in the next couple of weeks with their case. After they ate, Beckett decided to relax in the tub for a bit, while Castle relaxed on the couch, enjoying his glass of wine while typing on his laptop for his latest book. When Beckett was done in the bathroom she opened the door that lead directly to the bedroom, and proceeded to change into her pajamas there.

Afterwards, a very tired, pajama clad detective plopped down on the bed, and closed her eyes. She hadn't had them closed for 30 seconds when she realized Castle had to sleep on the horrid couch in the living room. She almost felt bad, and a slight ping of guilt began to rise in the pit of her stomach.

Frustrated, she stood, and began pacing around the bedroom in her bare feet, trying to think of the best solution so she wouldn't compromise the case. Finally, when she came to a decision, she went over to the living room where Castle was typing away on his laptop, a lack of sleep showing deeply around his eyes, she stopped at the end of the hall and called his name.

"Castle" she spoke tiredly, "I…I felt bad about making you sleep out here…would you like to join me in the bedroom?" Not two seconds after Beckett had uttered her sentence; Castle had already closed his laptop, and walked past her towards the bedroom.

Just in the doorway of the bedroom, Castle stopped and turned around to face Beckett, who had started making her way slowly back to the bedroom.

He spoke three words to her, and when all he got was a weak smile and nod as a response, he knew he was in the clear. "Are you sure?"

TBC...

I need some R&R for continuing! (I already know I am going to continue to at least one more chapter, but I do still like the R&R)
