Beginning of the week has not announced colourfully. The weather behind the window didn't cheer up at all, rather spoil mood it even more. Last days were for the entire precinct quite tiring.
Cases dragged on, circumstantial evidence turned out to be absurd, even more than theories of the writer which he created in the course of the investigation, and Kate usually ignored.
Sometimes they incorrectly appointed the killer. Work didn't give a hard time to them for ages, as at the beginning of February.
On Friday evening they were totally exhausted, The only one thing they needed. A peace and rest, when they could newly recharged batteries.
After long lounging about on the weekend, into the Monday morning hustle and bustle prevailed at the precinct and after a few moments spent in this place, everyone had enough. A noise made them dizzy.
"I'm working here 3 years, but have never seen something like that" Rick said, when watched people running after the 12th.
"It is said, that into Valentines the most people are committing suicide or is dying from hands of criminals" - replied Kate.
"But Valentines are tomorrow" she whispered.
"Calm down, you won't be complaining about the lack of the work" said not looking at him.
He fell into a pensive mood. Kate looked after a moment at him. She was surprised when he was so quiet without saying the word. It was not similar to him.
"Castle" raised her voice. "Are you here?"asked.
"I'm" he answered and before he finished something, they heard the scream of another detective.
"Yo Beckett, next body was found at the Arlington's corner" informed Esposito.
"We are going" she replied and along with the partner they set off to the exit.
After a moment they reached their destination, which swarmed from detectives, as well as a crowd of rubbernecks. A place didn't belong to best at the city.
They went through the yellow tape and came to Lanie who watched the body. The victim was dressed quite defiantly, had a lot of make-up on herself and the strangest thing she was wrapped up in the hotel towel, unfortunately the logo carefully was cut out, stayed only after him track.
"They should more often take herds of rubbish away"a writer said removal the nose.
"Castle we are behind the shed with the Chinese food, somewhere they must reproach remains" replied.
"I do not negate this, only…"
"What do we have?"asked Beckett not allowing complete partner.
"Woman, Caucasian, about 27 years" - announced pathologist. "She was hit near the hear, with the blunt tool struck with huge power" said getting up. "The rest I will tell after the section" added.
" Thanks Lanie" said Kate. "Do we know who the victim is? - Beckett looked at Esposito which appeared right next to them.
"We didn't found any documents in the wallet" informed.
"The homeless said, that when he found her wallet, nothing was inside, apart from a few bucks which he took" Kevin interjected. "Unfortunately, immediately he bought some wine and drank with his colleague" he added writing something down in his pocketbook.
:Take him to the precinct, when will sober up it will be necessary to interrogate him" issued the order. "And also his friend" added heading towards the car.
"Bro" said Javier" As always the worst work for us" - Espo bent.
The writer smiled to them and followed his partner. Through a few hours they had no tracks. Lanie sent them necropsy report in which unfortunately she wrote nothing new, apart from that, what they already knew.
"What so young and a beautiful woman could do to someone to die in that way?" asked.
"We don't know who she was, what she did for a living, maybe the reason was one or several" replied.
"I'm a writer, who works with detective, and often I do not know what directs the culprit: whispered.
"Castle, you are an excellent writer, but a life isn't a plot of the novel" stated. "People are acting differently" she added and Kevin appeared at this moment.
"We interrogate the homeless man, but he nothing remembers nothing more" said.
"We are going round in circles" Kate whispered angrily.
"We have the next body" yelled Esposito and after a while they were on their way to the place of the crime.
This time in the park, in the bushes the running girl stumbled over feet sticking out.
"Victim is a man, age of about 25 years, Latino, hit with blunt tool, similar to the previous victim, from with the one difference has a cut still throat" informed Lanie.
"The same perpetrator?" Beckett replied with question to the question.
"I'm not confident, I gotta compare traces, but everything indicates that probably both of these people died from the same weapon and the same murderer" explained.
"There are no documents" said Espo.
"Unknown victim" whispered Kate.
The writer didn't say any word. In silence they returned to the precinct, leaving Kevin and Espo at the crime scene.
About 18 detectives returned with a few pieces of information which could be useful in the matter.
"The victim is Tom Linchos identified by Lanie after the dental card, we checked the address from the driving licence, but for several days he didn't leave there anymore" Javier said.
A few minutes later, Ryan had the next news for them.
"The victim was an instructor of the dance at the well-known school in New York, in "On the dance floor", her owner is just going to us.
"This school has signed a contract with the television show, where one person send his/her fiancé for the course who in a month gets dance abilities, became an instructor and won the main award, a dance school to the property" a writer advised.
The rest watched him open-mounted.
"You do have a lot of free time, don't you?" said Beckett.
"I haven't seen any of episodes, coz the show was supposed to access to an antenna on this Sunday" he replied. "But I read about it on twitter" added.
"Something like in "Dancing with the stars" instead of the known stars, novice dancers" Kevin said. "But on the other rules" whispered when the sight of friends focused on him. "Jenny is a fan" he added after a moment, feeling that cheeks are blushing and getting red.
"I'm glad you are up-to-date with the latest gossips in TV, but we have here a murder to solve" Kate interjected.
"Glad I live alone" added Javier, after a moment everyone went their separate ways to the work.
Velazquez brought the man which arrived to the agreed time. After a moment partners sat in the interrogations room.
"What so did happened to my employee? " he asked upset.
"He was murdered" replied Beckett.
"He was the best instructor I had" he whispered. "Now where I will find a second one as good as he was? asked sarcastically.
"You weren't upset with this what happened to the victim" the writer interjected.
"I'm not the one who killed him " he felt indignant.
"Nobody is accusing you" Beckett tried to calm him down.
"For now" Rick whispered, which concentrated eyes of the partner at him.
"When did you see him for the last time?"she asked.
"On Friday evening, on the banquette he was with his girl Marika Chavez" he said. "From that day, I haven't seen both" he added. " I don't know, what is happening with his partner from the parquet, which was supposed to appear today on the attempt to the program" announced. "I called her, but she isn't picking up" informed.
"Please wait here for a moment" she said and left.
"What are you doing?" Rick asked with whisper, when returned.
"I thought that the previous victim had been a stripper, or a prostitute, but then I associated, that the dress fits to the dancer" she whispered.
"Will you tell me what's going on? the man asked disorientated, when partners whispered.
"Is this her?" asked Kate and she showed him a picture of a previous victim.
"Yes" he replied.
"So we know who the victim is" she said looking at the writer.
They changed some words with a man. Kate and Rick interrogate the owner of the school which unfortunately wasn't able to help them in the investigation, although thanks to him they got to know personal details of the previous victim. About 10pm they went home.
Over the next days, more and more, they got circumstantial evidence which moved them close for solving this strange matter. Statements of partners of participants show, they slowly guided them to the perpetrator, they grouped the elements of the puzzle together.
"One motive, evidence and the time" said taking off photographs of perpetrators.
"Jealousy, money and the fame" determined.
"Yes" she agreed. "For this reason I am glad that I am not a model, an actress, or a singer" she announced.
They sat moment by her desk. Detective filled the report of the case up, and Rick played with the phone. When she finished they said goodbye and went to houses.
February, 13th, at the precinct…
"Hi Beckett" said Lanie. "can we talk?"asked. "in private" added looking at the writer.
"I'm gone" replied understanding allusions.
"Castle can you come here for a moment?" Espo yelled.
"I will be there, if you needed me" - said sending both charming smile.
"What's the problem?" Kate asked, when the writer had grown apart from them.
"Honey, I know that you don't have time for the cinema, you aren't interested in gossip, but
"But?" Kate interjected.
"I got 4 tickets for the newest romance "For lovers Only"" Lanie said giving her the leaflet.
"It is a film for lovers" Kate stated after the title.
"Sweetie, tomorrow we have Valentines, not All Saints' Day" she explained, and Kate turned red.
"Ok, what about these tickets?" she asked.
"The film has a premiere tomorrow in Rome, me and Espo are two persons, and I thought, that…
"In Italy? Kate asked with the grimace.
"You know Italian, I could hear, how you flirted with the handsome Sicilian" Lanie whispered.
"But I am alone, and it is a film for pairs" whispered a little bit self-conscious. "I would be like a spare prick at a wedding " added.
"You do not have to take the fiancé with you" Parish interjected.
"No?" asked.
"No, Esposito already has a candidate" said smiling from ear to ear.
Kate turned the head and the only person which she saw with the detective there was a writer.
"Castle?" asked surprised.
"Honey, you do not have to go to bed with it at once, it is only a cinema" said emphasizing the word "cinema".
"I don't know" she replied. "It can destroy our relations" added sadly.
"I think that, it can only correct them - corrected her. - you have time up to the evening - she added and left two tickets for her on the desk and left her before detective managed to give them back to her.
Kate took them to the hand and started reading what this film is about. With every sentence she read a little smile appeared on her face.
After a moment she looked at the writer which apparently was amused with the conversation with the detective. When this way she looked at him, it reached her, that may try it and it could be worth a try.
They knew each other for so long, they are partner and good friends as well. Friends sometimes go out for dinner, or to the cinema. Besides, nothing strange in this idea, right?
"Only the film is about love, they play it in the Valentine's day in Rome" she whispered.
After one minute…
"This may be the most crazy thing, I have ever done in life" said smiling. "But it might be cool" added biting her lip.
She got up and went over to the writer…
