I wrote this for Mogie, but it was really cute so I decided to post it here :] It seems I'm a little bit obsessed with Pregnant!Kate and Alexis~
I do not own Castle.
"Alexis? Alexis, get up."
Kate made her way over to the bed and nudged the sleeping girl's leg, sitting down on the edge of the mattress. Her hair was thrown up in a bun, her bangs hanging in her face as she yawned. Seeing that the redhead made no move to get up as she requested, she leaned over carefully and pulled the comforter down.
"We have to get ready, Lex. Come on."
A groan came from the lump that was Alexis as she rolled over and looked up at Kate.
"I don' wanna."
"Yeah, well, neither do I but we should."
"You have the perfect 'scuse," she yawned, pulling the comforter back over her.
"Your dad will be upset if we miss it."
"He'll get over it. Tell him you were too tired."
Alexis rubbed her eyes as she pushed herself up into a sitting position against the headboard, her hip popping.
"I am tired.."
Kate pulled her bottom lip between her teeth as she studied the younger girl, debating with herself for only a moment before kicking off her slippers and crawling into bed beside Alexis.
"I'll text him and let him know we aren't coming," the brunette smiled slightly.
"What's my excuse?"
"You're taking care of your seven months pregnant step-mom," Kate nodded matter-of-factly, snuggling down in the bed.
"Sounds good to me," Alexis grinned sleepily as she sunk back down in the bed beside Kate, her eyes immediately closing. "Plus, if we go outside the baby might get frost bite."
"You are so your dad's daughter," Kate muttered as she closed her eyes and allowed her body to relax again.
