A/N: Thank you so much for the reviews :) They made me feel slightly better. So I decided to listen to you and continue this story. It probably won't be a very long one, but we'll see. I've already got some ideas for the next chapter as well.
So, this chapter is just very simple, it continues where the last chapter ended. If you've got the time I would really appreciate it if you would let me know what you think about it.
Chapter 2: Phone Call.
"Beckett."
"Hey." Castle replied.
"Um, hi." Beckett said. She took a glance at her watch, Eleven PM. Why would Castle call her at eleven PM?
"Hola."
What the hell? She thought. "Hello?" She asked, not sure what Castle was up to.
"Bonjour."
"Castle!" She said. Did he call her just to annoy her by saying hello in like, a lot of different launguages? Because if he did, it sure worked.
"Beckett." Castle replied.
"Stop it!" She ordered.
"Stop what?" He quickly shot back.
She rubbed her temples and sighed. "Never mind, why did you call me?" She asked, hoping this annoying phone call would quickly be over.
"Why, do I need a reason?" Castle asked, although he sounded surprised she could hear a hint of teasing in his voice.
She sighed and replied, "Yes, you do."
"Well in that case, I just wanted to hear your beautiful voice." He said in a low, almost husky voice.
She blushed. She hated herself for doing that but she did. And she wasn't really the kind of girl that blushed. The first time she had blushed in a long time was, oh god. It was the first case she'd worked with Castle. Ryan and Esposito where teasing her when they found out she was 'a fan' of Castle.
"Check it girl, you're totally a fan." Esposito had said.
"Yeah, of the genre." She had quickly replied.
"Right, of the genre, that's why you're blushing."
Somehow every time she blushed it had got to do something with him. Stupid Castle."Hellooo… Beckett? Are you still there?" Castle asked after a few moments of silence had passed.
His words brought her back to the current situation and she was about to reply when she a sound on the other end of the line. A tapping sound. At first she couldn't quite place it, but suddenly she remembered.
"Castle, are you typing?"
"Yes, very good detective. As a matter in fact I'm writing a new scene for the next Nikki Heat book as we speak." He replied and she could hear him tapping continuously on the keys of his keyboard. "Do you want to know what happens…?"
She rolled her eyes and said, "Sure."
"Well, one night, Rook calls Nikki and they get into a heated argument. Because Rook is totally annoying Nikki and she's got something better to do then talking to Rook−"
"Ah" She interrupted, "I see you sometimes can read me very well, because you really annoy me and I'm going to hang up now."
"No, wait. Don't you want to know how the scene ends?" He asked and she could almost see the childish grin on his face.
"How does it end Castle?" Although she pretended not to care, she still was curious what Castle would write.
"Well, as the argument gets more heated, the heat turns into another kind of heat. They end up sort of having phone sex until Nikki can't take it anymore and she goes to Rook's apartment."
"Bye Castle." She said and hung up the phone. Stupid, arrogant, childish, sexist Castle. The only reason that he had been in her imaginative wedding was because he was spending way too much time around at the precinct. Yes, of course, she thought. That must be it.
She got up, went to her bedroom and walked over to the bookshelves that hung on the wall. Nothing got her mind better of things, or in this case Castle, than reading a good book. That's when she spotted his name all over her bookshelf. Great, she thought sarcastically. She had almost forgotten that his books were the ones that could distract her the best. She sighed and decided to read one of his books anyway. She picked 'the special' book out of her collection and took it with her to the living room.
Her 'special' book was the one he had signed. The one she had read about a million times, kind of just like she had with his other books. Yes, he had gotten into her head way before he'd started shadowing her on cases. She was just about to start reading when her phone rang again.
"What?" She answered the phone after having checked the caller id.
"I just wanted to say that I finished writing the Nikki Heat scene." Came the reply.
"Good for you." She said coldly.
"Yes, anyway… Stay right where you are and just continue doing, whatever you're doing."Castle said.
"Why Castle?" She asked but he had already hung up. She stared blankly at the phone and was thinking whenever she should call him back or not. Finally she put down the phone, shook her head and started reading her book.

A/N: Ok, so I'm not really happy with this chapter and I rewrote it a couple of times, but this will just have to do. I know it's short, but I already started writing the next chapter which will probably be longer. Please review, that would make me very happy :)
