A/N: Thanks guys for all the reviews! They are very much appreciated. Here's another short fluff piece I just finished. Enjoy!
Company
Detective Beckett sat at her desk in the bullpen, frustrated with yet another dead end lead. It was a case that brought numerous leads, which all ended with a confirmed alibi or a false accusation. She caught a glance of her favorite photo which sat in a silver frame next to her computer. It was her proudest moment captured on camera. The picture showed her husband sprawled fast asleep on their couch, a sleeping baby nestled on his chest. Alexis was sleeping with her head in her father's lap, a small blissful smile across her face.
Every time Kate glanced at that picture all her frustrations flew out the window momentarily. She sat back in her office chair with a sigh and smiled, anxious to go home for the night.
"Mama!" A small and familiar voice exclaimed happily. Kate looked up towards the direction of the sound. Rick stood in the doorway holding their 9-month-old son. The baby was smiling and bouncing in his father's arms, overwhelmed with excitement.
"Hey, little man!" Esposito looked up from his desk, smiling at their visitors. He and Ryan stood up to greet the littlest Castle, who was all too often spoiled by his 'uncles'.
"Alright, boys, I'd like to see my baby," Beckett said, joining them. Rick handed over their son with a kiss on her forehead.
"Mama!" Jayce squealed again, playing with Kate's necklace.
Rick broke out of his chit chat with the two male detectives. "Thought you could use some company," He said to Kate with an understanding smile.
