Chapter 1
It was one of that usual calm days at the precinct. Our finest detectives didn't get any new case today. Kate was sitting at her desk doing paperwork. Castle was sitting beside, starring at her, of course. And then...
„Beckett! In my office, now!" Gates yelled.
„O gosh... What did you do this time, Castle?" Beckett asked and exhaled.
„What! I... I did nothing! I don't know seriously! Beckett, I..." Castle groaned.
„Calm down... Just kidding! Let's find out what's going on." she said and went straight to the Captain's office.
Kate stopped in front of the door, she took a deep breath feeling her body stiffened. She knocked and slowly opened the door. Gates was sitting in her chair apparently was waiting for her.
„You wanted to see me M'am... Sir?" Kate correct herself quickly as she saw Captain's death stare. Oh, how I miss Montgomery! Kate thought.
„Yes. You can sit, detective." Gates said rough and pointed a chair across from her.
„No... I think I'll stay on feet." Beckett answered coldly and stiffened more if it's possible." Could you just tell me why you called me here Sir?
„Of course. Well, NYPD established some kind of partnership with Paris PJ. We're going to exchange our experiences and knowledge with them.
„That's sound interesting... But why you telling me this in private Sir? It's secret or...
„I had to choose one detective, who go there and show them how 12th precinct work and I chose you Beckett.
„Oh... That's... Well, thank you Sir. I really appreciate that. So when am I going to Paris?" Kate asked. Actually she felt really happy. She always planned to go there. It was her mother's favorite city. Johanna used to told her about Paris a lot. She knew it well, cause she had been on practice there.
„2 weeks from now you will be in plane, heading to Paris. If you want, Detective, you can take a few days off, so you can pack everything, visit your family, say goodbye...
„I don't think I need it. It's not like I'm going there forever...
„You're right Beckett, but 6 months it's quite long and...
„Wait! 6 months? I'll stay there for 6 months?" Beckett was shocked. She wanted to go there, of course, but for 6 months? What about her dad, boys, Lanie and... Castle?
„Is that a problem Detective? If you can't handle it, I send someone else." Gates said but Kate knew that she couldn't refuse. Besides, why did she even hesitate? She's single woman without any serious things, that could keep her in New York, isn't she?
„No, no... I'm just surprised. But I'll go.
„Excellent. I'm going to..." Gates started, but then the phone rang and she let Kate know that she should leave the office. So she left. Castle was gone. He probably went home. It's late. Beckett thought. Boys weren't there either. So she sat on her chair and started to think about what happened a moment before. I'm going to Paris. For half a year! WOW It's big. Kate didn't really know what she felt about this. Yeah, she was happy and excited, but on the other hand... How does she supposed to survive in the unknown city for 6 months! She'll be there only on her own, without family, friends...
„ Detective, are you daydreaming? I hope that I appear there..." Becket heard and jumped on her chair when her partner stood right beside her.
„Castle! Actually, you were on my thoughts... I thought you went home." Kate smiled when she took a mug of coffee, which Castle had brought with himself a second ago.
„Without saying goodbye to my muse? How could I do that? In fact I'm curious about your chit-chat with Iron Gates.
„Yeah, I forgot for a minute that you're the most meddlesome person I've ever known..." Beckett teased him.
„Soo... What was that about?" Castle asked, fidgeting in his chair impatiently.
„You're still like 12 years old boy, don't you!" she laughed and asked " Do you feel like going to the Remy's with me? I'm hungry.
„With you Detective? Always!"
