Later that day after everyone congratulated the happy couple, Rick decided to surprise his Fiancé with dessert and having the night to themselves in a gorgeous room. Rick had the room covered in rose pedals and candles, which was dimly lit. He wanted their first night as an engaged couple to be special and romantic. Kate saw the room and immediately turned around to a smiling Rick. She told him that this was the best birthday she could have had. Rick cups her cheeps and gives her a gentle kiss and says, "You're welcome, Miss Katherine Beckett". She hates when he calls her Katherine. He has a look on his face like he is thinking and she asks, "What". He replies, "Well technically it will soon be Katherine Castle, with a smirk on his face. While she is blushing, She can't help but smile because she keeps repeating that name in her head.
"How many times do I have to tell you to not call me Katherine, She says with a mad tone to her voice.
He smiles and says, "Well isn't that the name you were given Katherine." How can she be mad at the man who just made her birthday more memorable then every expected. Rick, at that moment looks into Kate' eyes and grabs her hand and asks for their first dance. Kate looks at Rick and says, "Are we dancing to no music or are you going to belt out your voice?" They laugh and he leaves her to walk over to his I-pod dock and set music.
She looks at him, "Really, you want to dance to the Backstreet Boys, "This I promise you". He looks back at his i-pod and then back at her, "Its the only romantic slow song I have" He then takes her hand and starts to dance with her.
As the night continues and so does the slow dancing. Rick kisses Kate gently and whispers, "I Love You" and she replies back with a kiss and an "I love you too." Rick then asks what she wants for dessert and she automatically says ice cream. Rick departs to go get the ice cream when Kate realizes they have been dancing together for hours enjoying the touch and the silence together. Rick returns with two bowls of ice cream and He hands one bowl to Kate. The night goes on with this comfortable silence between them. Rick realizes Kate looks exhausted and suggests they go to bed.
Kate agrees and walks hand in hand with Rick to their bedroom. Kate sets the alarm early. Kate then goes to the restroom to change into her PJ's while Rick changes in the bedroom. Kate sits on the other side of the bed and looks at Rick. Then she continues to lay down with Rick's arm around her torso. Kate whispers to Rick, "There is something we need to do tomorrow. I want to take you somewhere. I love you Rick." She turns to kiss him and he replies, "I love you too Kate". They settle in the bed together feeling each other's heart beat until they both drift off to sleep.
