Chapter 1: Pretty Brown Eyes.
A/N:
This is a teen (high school) fic. I have had this in my head forever and I just have to get it out. This will be in modern time, Castle and Beckett won't have the big age gap. This should be fun. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it. Chapters will be song titles. However, some songs may last longer than one chapter. (And I'm sorry for my poor taste in music. A lot of the chapters will be One Direction songs)The rating will remain T for now. Idk if i'll write any graphic smut. (We will cross that bridge when it cums) (-I'm so sorry I think I'm funny)
This is my first fic EVER. So please bear with me.
I am basing this story off of my high school experience (I am currently enrolled in high school) and high school I see on T.V…. Also, even though English is my first and basically only language I know, (unless you count the two years I took Spanish) I am actually bad at it. All I am saying is THERE WILL BE MISTAKES. I AM AWARE AND PLEASE FEEL FREE TO POINT THEM OUT. Thanks :)
Disclaimer: Castle does NOT belong to me. I am just using the characters I love and adore. The songs aren't mine either.
Pretty Brown Eyes: Cody Simpson
This girl she came round the corner
Looking like a model
Magazine figure
She was shaped like a bottle
Long straight hair…
First time ever
I was lost for words
Felt so right
Just couldn't be wrong
Love at first sight
If that exists at all
I couldn't move
Felt like I was stuck
'God I'm so tired' -he thought as he walked into school. Probably should have gone to bed sooner. But hey it was his first day of his Junior year, and he was the new kid. Again. Rick Castle did not have trouble making friends. No that wasn't the problem was finally becoming good friends with someone and then finding out you have to move. Again. However, this time he was staying for good. His mother promised. He missed his old friends already. Especially Damian Westlake. His only "real friend"
Speaking of- Rick pulled out his iPhone and read
How's the new school? Damian texted.
So far it kinda blows. He texted back.
At least u get to go to a school with girls and don't have to wear a uniform. Damian instantly replied.
At his last school, Faircroft Preparatory Academy, it was an all boys school, and they were very strict on dress code. And right now Rick was enjoying his new freedom of wearing his new jeans and his favorite white t-shirt. So yeah this new school couldn't be all that bad. But so far no girl has really caught his attention.
I guess. He answered truthfully.
He finally found his locker. Opening it, just to make sure his combination works. He stood there with the locker door open, killing time before the three minute bell rings. Looking to his left he saw a girl walking around the corner. She was beautiful. In a black shirt, with jean shorts showing off her long, toned legs. She had straight brown hair. "Wow" he said. Staring at her, with his mouth hanging slightly open. His heart skipped a beat.
Kate Beckett was actually very happy starting her Junior year. That means she is only one more year away from graduation. She also missed seeing everyone. Especially the ones she never found the time to hang out with over the summer. She stopped at her locker. She opened it and put her notebooks inside.
"Hey, girl!" a voice she was very familiar with said behind her.
She turned around to see her best friend Lanie Parish. "Hey, Lanie." She replied, happy to see her best friend.
"Don't look now, but there is a major cutie checking you out…" Laine said quietly
"Who?" Kate whispered. Lanie shrugged. Looking to her right she saw who Lanie was talking about. She didn't recognize him. 'Must be new' she thought. He was tall, his short disheveled brown hair was hanging in front of his face. -which if she might add, definitely worked for him. He was cute. And why was he staring at her? He turned away. Hiding behind his locker door.
Lanie and Kate giggled. "He is sooo cute. If I didn't have Javi I would jump on that." Lanie said. "Yeah well if I didn't-" she was cut off by a hug from behind from her boyfriend.
"Hey, Baby!" the tall, hulking guy exclaimed.
Shit. She totally saw him staring- gazing at her. 'Crap. Now she's going to think I'm creepy.' he said to himself. Now she was with someone. Another girl, shorter than her. Her friend? 'Maybe, I could talk to her friend and find out more about this girl' he planned.
Now another person joined the pair. A guy. He gave the mystery woman a hug from behind. Oh. 'That must be her boyfriend.'
Shit.
"Josh" she smiled. Turning around to plant a kiss on his dry lips.
"Miss me?" he said smugly.
"Little bit." she answered.
"I'll leave you two alone." Lanie interrupted. Leaving the couple alone at Kate's locker.
"Aww, C'mon Katie. I know you missed me a lot." He reached behind her and grabbed her ass and squeezed.
She gasped. "Josh. Stop" she said sternly."Finnnee." he whined as he dropped his hands.
Kate rolled her eyes. The bell had rung. "Ok, I'm going to class. See you after." she turned and gave him a small peck on the lips. "Ok." he replied.
Kate went to her first period class, Baking. 'This should be fun, and easy' Kate thought truthfully. Luckily Jenny O'Malley- one of Kate's closest friends was in the same class. Kate sat right next to Jenny. "Hey, its been a whole two days since I've seen you last." Jenny joked. Kate just smiled.
Next thing she knew, that kid who had been staring at her came in. He wandered up to the teachers desk and talked to her. She couldn't quite tell what about.
"Do you know him?" Jenny questioned. She noticed Kate was staring.
"Huh? What? No. No." Kate nervously replied.
"OKayyy" Jenny smiled. "Someone has a crush" She mumbled just quiet enough for Kate not to hear.
The final bell rings. "Ok, Class, take your seats. You can sit anywhere you'd like for now." The whole class silently cheered. "I'm Mrs. Miller, your Baking teacher. Some of you may know or have had my husband, Mr. Marlowe." she added. "Oh! and this is Richard Castle, he is a new student here at, Stuyvesant. So I expect all of you to welcome him. You can sit anywhere you'd like Mr. Castle." she gestured.
He smiled and walked away from her desk. He looked around and decided to sit in the last open table behind the girl who he had been staring at. 'God, now she's going to think I'm even creepier.' He thought. Taking his seat he slumped down in his chair, listening to his teachers "Rules and Guidelines for Fun and Safe Class. Rick rolled his eyes."
Just then the girl sitting next to the girl he'd been 'admiring from afar' turned to him. "Hi! I'm Jenny and this is Kate."
Kate. He finally knew her name. And it fit her. She looked like a Kate. "Hey" he muttered. "I'm Rick."
Just then Kate turned around and looked at him and smiled. 'Damn, those eyes. I've always loved blue eyes' she thought.
'She has gorgeous eyes' Rick thought to himself. "So, where did you come from?" Jenny asked. "The city. The last school I came from was Faircroft Academy." He explained. "My cousin goes there!" Jenny exclaimed.
"Don't make me make a seating chart." Mrs. Miller said.
Jenny and Kate turned around, facing forward. Not talking for the rest of class.
Rick couldn't get her- Kate's, he corrected himself, hazel eyes out of his mind. Although, they were a little more brown than green.
Thats all he thought about all throughout class, her pretty brown eyes.
A/N:
So? What did you think? There will be more I promise. And it will be better.
By the way… I hate Josh more than anyone in this world. So trust me they WILL NOT be together for long. And if you like Josh, I will make you hate him.
