thank for reading, please review
So, this is the first time Kate has to look after Alexis, by herself, because Castle is away for a couple days.
Day one
"Come on Kate, hurry up or I'll be late for school." Alexis yelled from the bottom of the staircase. "I'm coming, I'm coming." She yelled back, walking down the staircase, a case file in her hand, "I found it," she said raising the case file. Kate put on her long chocolate brown trench coat and picked up a couple more files, while Alexis grabbed her schoolbag. Kate smirked as Alexis rushed down to the car as she walked down the front steps towards her Ford XR8 Turbo. Unlocking the car, Alexis was soon hidden behind the tinted windows, but Kate still heard Alexis yelling at her to hurry up. Opening the glossy black door, Kate slid into the driver's seat.
Kate pulled the navy blue sedan in front of the private school's front gate. "ok so I have soccer training after school, so pick me up around 4:30 and please try not to be late I hate it when dads late,' Alexis said hurriedly, eyeing off her friends, who couldn't see her through the fords tinted windows. "ok, and that's-" Kate started, "at the school oval" Alexis finished. "ok, well you hurry off to your friends then sweetie, I think they've given up on you," Kate said pointing to where Alexis's friends moments before had been standing. Seeing her friends start to walk into school, Alexis grabbed her bag and jumped out the car, "see ya later then." She said quickly before running to catch up to her friends.
Hours later Kate pulled the car into the first spot she could find alongside the footy oval. Her ford, although top of the range, looked out of place alongside a BMW and Jaguar. With 5 minutes to spare Kate started reading a case file, the door opening made her jump. " my teacher is about to come over, apparently she's never talked to my parents before, now I know that your not my mum or anything but I wanna get good marks." Alexis said as she shut the door. "ok, what subject she have you for," Kate said, as Alexis sighed thankful that she would go along with it. "English lit." Alexis said. "Do you like her? Is she gonna tell me that your bad in class?" Kate said smirking at the thought. "of course not, she's ok but she's like obsessed with Dad, its only first term and we've already been made read the first half of the series." Alexis said, glad Kate was getting into it.
"does she know he's your father?" Alexis shock her head. A knock on the window made them both jump. Turning on her car just enough to get the window down she looked up to see a middle aged woman standing there. "Hello," Kate said awkwardly. "hi, I'm Miss Bennit, Alexis's teacher," the lady started, "I'm Kate." Beckett said politely. "well I just wanted to meet the wonderful people that raised, this kid. You should be proud of her." She started and went on for another ten minutes. Finally nearer the end she asked, "is there anything you would like to ask?" "yes actually," Kate started, glancing to Alexis, "I would like to know why it is that you are making her not only read but also do assignments on her father's books? Like it's bad enough her father made her read them. Not only would Alexis written parts of them, she's read many a different chapters than ever got published."Miss Bennit just looked at Kate with a shocked looked on her face. "your Richard Castle's daughter?"
It had taken another 20 minutes before Kate and Alexis were finally able to leave, another hour to get home. Kate was sure she had done ok for her first day. When she was able to finally sit down and relax, it was then that she started missing Castle, it was too quiet around the house. She could tell Alexis missed him too.
