Lanie was shopping for some new lingerie; every girl needs to feel sexy right? Well today Lanie was treating herself to a new set from the new shop called Sassy Boutique. Being a sassy woman, she had to go there.
On entering the shop, Lanie could see it was rather busy. A few male customers were dotted about, obviously looking for an outfit for their special someone. While looking through the racks near the changing rooms, Lanie overheard a voice she didn't expect to hear.
"I'm sure it looks great. You look great in anything and nothing too. I'll look for something else though." Lanie watched stealthily as she saw none other than Richard freaking Castle walk past the changing rooms to pick up a rather sexy black lace baby doll and gown. Who the hell was Castle buying underwear for? He better not be shacking up with another blond bimbo. She thought Kate and Castle were getting closer, closer than they had ever been.
"I'm going to pass it over now." Lanie stays back just close enough. She browses through the racks, trying to look inconspicuous. She sees someone in a changing room take the lingerie, making her even more curious as to who that person was.
Lanie moves around the shop staying hidden, she gets to a spot where she can see the cash register and the door, so she can spot whoever is with Castle when they pay, or when they leave. Lanie keeps her head down browsing through another rack when she hears a voice she never thought she'd hear.
"How many times Rick, you get to pick, I get to pay." That was Kate Beckett. Her best friend. What was she doing buying sexy lingerie with Castle?
"Are you ever going to let me pay for anything?" Castle pouts.
"Maybe. But not today." Lanie watches as Kate snags the baby doll outfit, great choice she must admit, and walks to the cashier to pay.
"As long as I keep getting to see you wear it, this is one situation where I don't mind you paying." Castle places his arm around Kate's hip, his hand slipping under the side of Kate's shirt. If Lanie wasn't so frozen in her place, she would be gasping in shock, or screaming for joy at her friends finally doing it. Lanie watches amazed as Kate slips her hand into Castle's back jeans pocket leaving it there while they move further along in the line.
"Well, maybe you can pay today." Kate stops Castle, putting her hand in his inside pocket she grins as she takes his wallet out. "Where's the fun if you get all the payoff." Kate hands over Castle's gold card as they finally get to pay, passing over her purchases she smiles at the cashier who tells her what a good choice she had. Kate looks up at Castle, looks him in the eyes as she says. "Yeah it is." Referring to more than the underwear choice, Castle leans down giving Kate a quick kiss on the lips. As they pull away Castle reaches around Kate for his card and she takes the bag. They begin their walk out the shop, when a voice causes them to freeze in their tracks.
"No freaking way!" Castle and Kate glance at each other, both gulping, as they hesitantly turn around to see Lanie Parish standing in the middle of an aisle her eyes bugged out, and eyebrows hidden in her hairline.
They were busted.
