Chapter 2

Kate opened the door to the bathroom and steam poured out as she ran a towel through her hair the bath robe she borrowed tied around her waist. She felt the soreness from the bruises around her body a little more now that her body was more relaxed from the shower, but she was suddenly caught off guard by the smell that wafted through the air.

It smelled fantastic. She could smell the pancakes and the coffee of course but something else was sizzling in the pans. She smiled to herself and went back into the bedroom to find something to wear.

Richard Castle was on top of the world! He still had a hard time believing that it wasn't a dream he was in right now but he didn't care. Kate Beckett the women he loved and adored was in his house, his bed, and he was now making her breakfast. He smiled as he moved around the kitchen almost dancing as he moved. He checked the pancakes flipping them with ease and went to turn the bacon he was cooking in the pan on the stove. He hummed to himself some tune in his head as he took the eggs out of the fridge and closed the door with his foot. He slid back to the counter to crack the eggs into the bowl. He still had to figure out how he was going to explain all this to Alexis and his mother but for right now he didn't care as he cracked the first egg into the bowl and free threw the shell into the sink and heard the cheer of the imaginary crowd in his head. He smiled again cracking a second egg and thinking if he should make toast to. He was unaware of the hazel eyes peaking around the door frame of his study watching him, and the smile that was on the lips just beneath them.

He was dancing, well sort of but she loved it anyways. He was still same old Castle even after everything they had just been through, the wounds of the last year seemed almost like fading scars. They were still there just not as visible as they were sense she showed up on his doorstep last night. He flipped the pancakes and stirred the eggs poring them into the pan and the smell filled the air and as she watched from her little hiding spot. She thought about nothing except how handsome and well sexy he really was. She studied him like she had a million times before when he didn't know she was watching and all the things she had noticed is those 4 years now seem amplifyed. She loved it. Everything seemed so perfect now that she had allowed him into her heart. She promised herself right there that she would never be so blind again. It had almost cost her, her life and something far more important. Castle himself. He started pulling out plates and she took it as he cue to make herself known. She slipped around the corner into the room.

Castle was placing the scrambled eggs onto both plates and just about to place the bacon on them as well when he looked up and almost droped the pan. Kate had on a pair of what were obviously his sweat pants cause they were tied extra tight, fair to big for her slender waist. The Batman t-shirt was also to big but seemed to fit her just right. But the fact that he had never seen her in such casual cloths was not what stopped him. It was her face and the way the morning sun caught her drying hair through the lofts window. The way that hair framed her face. God she was so beautiful and the sizzling pan in his hand was like testament to what his insides were feeling right now. He didn't stop staring at her even as she stopped at the counter. He was speechless. God he loved her, she was so beautful, all he lived for.

She saw him freeze as she came closer to him and stopped at the counter top. She staired back at him a smile crossing her face as he stared. She could see the love in those blue eyes and it took a combined effort from both of them to not tear into each other again and express that love like so many times last night. This time she broke the silence.

"Castle your staring." she said breaking eye contact.

"I know." he said.

"Can you stop?" she said looking back up at him.

"Don't wanna." he hadn't even blinked yet.

Kate smiled and picked up one of the plates holding it in front of him. "Bacon please."

The reminder of food and the hot pan in his hands snapped him out of his trance this time.

"Right...food...on it.." he said almost stumbling over the words.

She smiled as he placed the bacon on her plate. She picked up a piece and took a bite as she turned towards the table. Rick still stood there remembering the taste of her lips before he to piled some food on his plate and rushed to join her. The sizzle of there hearts still as hot even as the pan cooled on the stove top.
