The Call of the Moon
Chapter 3:
When Castle woke up, he noticed he was in a hospital room. Understanding that everything that had happened had been a dream, he sighed in despair.
« Richard! » Said his mother noting that he had just woken up.
« Mother please! Don't scream like that…Ow, my head…What's happened? »
« You've hit your head during one of your night walks. And you'll make me the pleasure to stop them. »
« Dad! »
« Hey pumpkin. »
« Fortunately she was passing by. Do you realize your luck? » Continued his mother.
« Wait, who are you talking about? »
« You don't know? »
« No mother I don't. I don't remember what happened. Who saved me? »
« It must be me Castle. »
Castle's jaw hit the ground and his eyes were the size of two tennis balls when he saw the woman in the doorway: Kate Beckett.
There was a silence in the room. Castle stared at her. There was something changed in her. She seemed more…animal.
« What's happened to you? » He asked suddendly.
Kate didn't answer immediately. She hesitated a moment, then entered the room and approached the bed. She gave a polite smile to Martha and Alexis the returned hes attention to Castle.
« I was followed by a man, three months ago. He attacked me in my apartment and the he kidnapped me. I managed to escape. Luckily, I was passing nearby when you had your…accident. »
Her story sounded terribly wrong. It was ridiculous. It shocked him that his mother and daughter believe her. However, he didn't insist. For now anyway. Instead he caught her hand in his.
« I'm glad that you're okay. »
« Me too. » She replied softly.
Suddendly a shock surprise both of them, making them jump a little. Kate frowned and looked at her hand confused. Castle was about to tell something but the noise from the corridor stopped him.
Esposito, Ryan and Lanie came rushing into the room to freeze seeing Beckett.
« Hey. » She said.
Lanie was the first to recover and jumped into the detective's arms.
« Oh my God! Oh my God! You're here! You're really here! »
« Damn, we hadn't believed Mrs Rodgers when she tell us it was you who found Castle. » Said Esposito after the embrace.
« What's happened to you? » Asked Ryan.
Before Kate could answered the doctor entered.
« Oula, there are too many people here. Mr Castle needs rest. Only his family can stay. »
Kate began to leave with the oser when Castle grabbed her hand again.
« Don't leave…please… » He whispered.
« I'll be there when you Wake up. »
« Promise? »
« I promise. » She then walked away and left the room. Castle felt a weight in his chest. The more she moved away and more the weight became more heavy.
When Kate arrived in the hall she turned to him. Her face betrayed the desperation and the pain she felt at this moment. She seemed torn between the decision to stay with him or let him rest. She took a deep breath and went away.
Before she reaches the gates of the hospital, Kate was stopped by a voice.
« It was really careless what you did last night. »
« Hi Leïla, how are you? Me? I'm fine, think you. »
« Kate… »
She stopped walking and turned to Leila.
« What did you want me to do? They were about to bleed him to death! »
« There was other way to save him and you know it. »
« Listen. When I saw that he was in danger…I dont know…I just couldn't help myself. I had to save him... I didn't think okay? »
« If I tell you this Kate, it's for you protection. »
« I know, I know… »
« Nevertheless… I was impressed to see how you kicked their asses. »
« Oh yeah? Really? » Smiled Kate.
« Really. » Smirked Leïla. « You should join your colleagues now. »
« Okay. »
« I'll see you later Kate. »
When Castle awoke, he noticed that the weight in his chest had disappeared. She was here. He opened his eyes and turned his head to see that in fact Kate Beckett sat on a chair beside the bed and she was staring at him. She ends up realizing he was awake, she smiled and gave a slight pressure on his hand she held in her own.
« Hi. » She said in a soft voice.
« Hi. »
« Did you sleep well? »
« Not bad. But it could have been better. »
A silence fell between them, their hands still tied. Nobody wanted to release the other afraid to feel this pain again.
« So, now that we are alone, could you tell me what really happened? » She looked at him, no surprise he know she lied.
« I can't. » She replied simply.
« Why? »
She chuckled lightly.
« For so different reasons Castle. »
Castle looked at her a long time, he examined the young woman carefully leaving no detail escaped him. Kate did not move an inch, keeping her eyes on him while he was studying her.
« You've changed. » He finally said.
« I did. » She didn't deny anything and that surprised him a bit.
« Will you tell me? One day? »
« Probably not… »
« If you dont tell me, I'm going to have to guess myself. And I warn you, I work with the NYPD for some time now. »
« Thinks for the warning Castle. »
« It's normal, we're friends. » He paused a moment before taking a serious voice. « I will eventually discover your secret Kate. » There was no threat in his words, just a promise. Kate looked at him intently, then gave him a little smile.
« We'll see. »
Castle could leave the hospital the next day. He returned to work with the police but this time it was not for his research. At least not the search for Nikki Heat. He never left Kate. He was always with her. Every day he looked at her, watched her minutely and he could see almost insignificant little things that had changed in her. Almost.
First of all, She used a lot more senses such as smell, sight or hearsay. He worldt have questioned if she had not heard the footfall of a suspect on the other side of his house or she had felt the scent of a suspect on a jacket she had not even in hands. She also came to growl when something annoyed her. All dogs seemed to love her when all cats hated her.
One day she was in a mad mood, she growled at anything and everyone. She even almost killed a suspect who had the courage (and misfortune) to call her 'baby'. She also had a funny reaction when she had seen the screen of the computer of a suspect who represented a plain moon: she had a great start and was doing everything to avoid looking at the picture.
That day, Castle and Beckett had gone searching for one of their suspect at his home in the border separating New York and New Jersey. Kate knocked at the door.
« So? This research? » She asked innocently.
« I have somme ideas already… » He replied, looking intently trying to see her reaction. But she merely nodded calm and quiet. The door opened suddenly and Kate was nose to nose with the barrel of a shotgun.
« I was waiting for you chickens. »
OMG! Did you see the promo for 3x13? OMG! Beckett is going to be so hot! And for the record I'm not a lesbian (And I have nothing against them neither.) but damn, I don't know for you but for me Stana Katic is really the hottest actress I ever see! Oh and that kiss!
Please tell me, There people that said that Mondey it's not going to be the 3x13. Can someone confirms this? Thank you!
