Richard Castle headed off to the elevator after seeing josh come up behind Kate. It made him sick looking at them together, he wished it was him who could be there for Kate after the events of today. He knew that Kate was happy with josh and that's all that mattered. As long as Kate was happy Castle was happy.
Kate watched as Castle got on the elevator she didn't understand why he left until she felt Joshes arms wrap around her. She knew that after what happened today she couldn't lead Josh on anymore she had to breakup with him.
" Josh can we talk for a second?" Kate said walking to the break room.
" Sure." Josh said.
" Josh I'm really sorry but I don't think this is working out." Kate said.
" What? Did I do something?" Josh asked.
" No you didn't do anything. I just don't want a relationship now." Kate said.
" I'm sorry too. I guess I can mail you your things and you mail me mine?" Josh asked.
" Sure and thank you for not making a huge deal out of this." Kate said.
" No problem see you around Kate." Josh said giving her one last kiss on the top of her head and walking out.
Kate let out the breath she was holding. It felt good not to be in a nowhere relationship. She went to her desk to fill out the last of the paperwork before heading home.
It had been 7 weeks since the bombing case and everything was fine Kate didn't have Josh to worry about anymore, she could focus on the case. She woke up that morning feeling sick to her stomach she quickly ran to the washroom and puked her guts out. After she was finished she got dressed for work. She called Castle and told him to meet her at the crime scene. When she arrived Castle held out her coffee to her, she got a smell of it and felt sick again she quickly ran around the corner and puked Castle called after her but she didn't listen. When she finished she walked over to the body when she saw it she felt sick again. Castle and Lanie both noticed the color of her face was white and she looked like she was going to hurl.
" Girl are you ok?" Lanie asked.
" I think I have the stomach flu but I'm fine." Kate said weakly.
Then suddenly Kate made a beeline to the corner she puked her guts out again. Castle followed her and held her hair.
" I'm taking you home and that's final." Castle said.
" Ok." Kate said again.
Castle helped her to her car she handed him the keys and got in the passenger side. Castle knew see must be really sick if she let him drive. When they arrived at her apartment Castle went around to help Kate out. She was dizzy again and grabbed his hand he led her to her door and led her threw to her bedroom. He settled her down under the blankets he went to head out to the living room when she grabbed his wrist.
" Don't leave me." Kate said.
" I won't." Castle said.
He took off his jacket and climbed in next to her. Kate rolled over and snugged in to Castle's side. He gently rubbed her back and drifted off to sleep. He woke up to the sound of Kate's vomiting he jumped up and ran to the washroom. Kate was hugging the toilet Castle winced at the sounds she was making. He gently held her hair back until she was done and held her up so she didn't fall.
" Can we go to the couch we have to talk?" Kate asked.
" Sure." Castle said.
He helped her off the ground and to the couch he got her a glass of water to drink.
" I need to tell you something and please don't freak out, I need my best friend to help me ok?" Kate said taking his hand.
She just called him her best friend he couldn't believe it he tried not to get excited seeing she needed him calm.
" Ok I promise I'll be here." Castle said.
" After the bombing case I broke up with josh. I realized he wasn't the right guy for me. " Kate said.
" I'm sorry. I take it there's more." Castle said.
" I'm late and I'm never late I think I could be pregnant." Kate said.
Castle froze did she just say pregnant? He looked at her and saw the terror in her eyes he knew he had to stay calm for her.
" Do you want me to go get a test?" Castle asked.
" Could you please?" Kate asked.
" Sure I'll be right back." Castle said placing a kiss on her forehead and heading out the door.
While castle was gone Kate drank 2 bottles of water to make her pee she heard a knock on her door, Castle was back. She went to answer it Castle had bought one type of every pregnancy test.
" Hey. Are you ready to take it?" Castle asked.
Kate nodded and went to the washroom when she was done she put the stick on the counter and called Castle.
" Castle! Can you come here?" Kate yelled.
Castle came running over to the washroom.
" What's wrong?" He asked.
" Will you wait with me?" Kate asked in such a small voice he almost didn't hear it.
" Of course." Castle said.
He sat down on the floor next to Kate he could see how nervous she was. He pulled her on to his lap and kissed her forehead. They waited three minutes it was time to check the test.
" Will you check I can't" Kate said.
" Sure." Castle said he kissed her forehead again and stood up. He went over and picked the test up and looked at Kate.
" What does it say?" Kate said.
" You're…
