A/N Hey guys! I'm glad you all liked the first chapter.
So a few things, this story is set in what would be about season 5, and Alexis is off in college, It starts out really angsty, but I promise to get to the good stuff soon ;p I will probably be able to update a chapter a day, except on Sundays.
Also, I am addicted to reviews! So please let me know what you think. :D Good or bad.
All gramatical errors are mine.
Disclaimer: Castle is not mine! Darn -.-
Rick sat down at his desk and ran a hand through his hair, today had been anything but ordinary.
Kate was softly sleeping in the guest bedroom upstairs, it truly seemed like time hated them. All of the missed opportunities, longing looks and interrupted moments; he had begun to wonder if they were ever going to get it together. She had looked as if she was going to says something important back to him, but like he said, time was not on their side. Her body had gave out and he had carried her upstairs laying her down, and kissing her cheek. He poured himself a scotch and decided to just write for a while, not particularly on the Nikki Heat series, but about anything and everything,
Four hours, and way too many thoughts, later, he walks out his study and figures that Kate should be waking up soon, and starts on some dinner. He's going to make sure that she has some real food in her before she drives or walks anywhere, and that they finish the conversation that she had started. He decided on something light that wouldn't upset her stomach and made grilled chicken salad, with light thousand island dressing.
The smell of food woke her from her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes and took in her surroundings, the deep red comforter over her, the dark cherry wood of the floor and the amours, the smell that surrounded her, the smell of him. She slowly thought back to last night and almost cried once more, but decided that she was done crying, it was time to face the music. That was the whole reason that she had came here right? She swung her feet over the edge of the bed a waited for the dizziness that the action had caused to pass, and went downstairs to see this glorious man cooking something that had her stomach growling, and mouth watering.
"You didn't have to carry me all the way upstairs Rick." she said with a somewhat small voice.
"Well good afternoon my dear sleepy detective. It was no problem, I wasn't about to subject you to my couch, or my floor. I'm nothing if not a gentleman." He smiled but she could tell that it didn't touch his eyes,
"I just made some chicken salad with thousand island dressing, I figured you would be ravaged when you woke up, sit down and I'll bring you some."
"Thanks Castle, is there anything that I can get, I mean I am the one who came and passed out in you're floor, I should be cooking for you."
"No I already got everything set up, and you're welcome here anytime you like Kate." He smiled and this time it did touch his eyes.
"Thanks Castle" She said as she turned and went to sit down at the table.
Castle brought over their food and scooped them each out a helping of food before sitting down,
"Mmmmmmm" Beckett hummed her approval as she scooped the first bite of food I her mouth.
Castle just smiled at her, and they ate in silence, a silence that they both knew lead to the talk of a lifetime, the talk the would change their lives forever.
I know I'm evil, lol, I know it was short but we get to the good stuff soon. :)
