ANOTHER ONE of my Caskett stories. I just love them together, and I find the writing just flows with this couple. Please review, and tell me what you think!
Disclaimer: I don't own Castle, or any of its characters.

I collapsed in my chair at my desk after another long day interrogating suspects, and almost jumped when I sat on something. I got up, and picked up an envelope with a box taped onto it. I opened the purple piece of stationery first, trying to recognise the neat scrawl on the front.
Kate, it read.
I have heard from some resources of mine that you feel the same way about me as I do you. I am deeply in love with you, Kate, and whilst your love might not be that strong, I know you have admitted to one of your friends that you love me at least a little. We have been working together for a while now, and I feel I have gotten to know you more and more everyday. I love everything about you, and I want you to be mine. I know you will think this is excessively fast, but I need to do it now, before I chicken out.
Katherine Beckett, you are my life, my soul, my everything. My last breath would be whispering your name into the light breeze, and carrying it lovingly to your ears. Your eyes are brighter than any star imaginable, and your heart is forgiving, but weak with hurt. You are truly beautiful, almost an angel, inside and out…
Richard Castle.

I gasped when I read who it was from, and the note almost made me cry. He actually loved me! I loved him back, a stronger love than I thought possible. I opened the box, and there was another note. I hoped this one wasn't as overwhelming and emotional as the other one.
Come to the break room, I have to ask you something.
I sighed, contemplating whether I should go to the break room and meet him there. He felt the same way, but I wasn't sure if I was ready to face him. Ignoring my internal instincts, I almost ran into the break room, and saw him sitting on one of the desks. I walked over and kissed him on the lips, hugging him. He embraced me lovingly, and I hugged back.
"What is it you want to ask me?" I said curiously, and he got up off the desk. He pulled something out of his pocket, too fast for me to see, and knelt down on one knee.
"Will you marry me?"
I burst into tears, crumpling to the ground. He crawled over and hugged me close to him.
"That was way too soon, and overwhelming. I'm sorry. I'm such an idiot to think you would say yes right away," he was mumbling to himself too, and I looked up, a bright grin on my face.
"Yes"
"What? What do you mean yes?"
"I want to marry you!" I busted out. He kept kissing me, slipping the ring onto my finger. I was giggling, enjoying the moment. Nothing could have ruined this. I was going to be Mrs Richard Castle. Wow. Would he still shadow me at work? Would Alexis and Martha accept me? Will anyone accept us being together?
I started to panic a little, but kept it to myself. It was all about now; all about this moment. He was on top of me, kissing me anywhere his lips could reach. Right now was heaven.
Nope, it wasn't. Well, in my head it was. Man, I hate Sunday mornings. They always caught me off guard with stupid dreams, leading me to believe things. The weird thing was, I enjoyed that dream more than any other dream I ever had. Being Mrs Castle would just have to wait.

Sorry to cut you off with the whole dream thing, but in the end, I thought it was too fast, them getting married. I wrote this the day after a festival I had, so I was very sleepy. Sorry for grammar/spelling mistakes, I'm tired and have had writers block for a while. Anyway, please review!
