Thank you for the reviews and for reading. I hope you are all enjoying this story. Sorry about the long wait for this chapter, but I'm in school this summer and I haven't been able to write as much as I would like. Thank you for sticking with me and hope you enjoy this chapter, it's a bit short but I hope to have the next one up soon :]

"Geeze, Rick you made her think I didn't like her. How could you even think that I don't love her?" I whisper yell at him so Alexis can't hear me.

"I know you love her, but I just wanted to make sure I didn't want it to turn out like the last two, I just wanted to make sure that it was genuine." His eyes fall to the floor. "I love you Kate more than you know and I want everyone to be happy and I just wanted to know that everyone is. I'm sorry if I upset you and Alexis, but I just had to know." he steps towards me and holds his arms out.

"I love you too Rick and I love Alexis too. I finally feel like part of a family and it's like I have my own and Alexis is everything that has to do with that. You have changed my life in so many ways and all three of you Castle's have filled a whole that I didn't know needed to be filled and I love all of you." I step towards him and poke him with every word. "So…don't… ever… think… I… don't… love… any… of… you… got it…"

"Apples, apples geese, Kate." He smiles. "I won't I promise." He wraps his arms around me and pulls me close to him. "God I love you." He kisses my head and one of his hands come up and move my hair from my neck. He leans down and leaves a few open mouthed kisses on my neck.

"I love you too Castle." I smile and I feel him smile against my skin before he leans back and kisses my lips. He drags a moan from me as he deepens the kiss further. I push on his chest a bit. "Alexis." I tell him.

"I know." he says and kisses me again.

I laugh. "Rick." I try to pull away.

"Fine." He says as he stops kissing me, but he's not letting me out of his arms. "Kate?"

"Yes." I look into his eyes, the mischief is gone yet there still is a spark.

"Move in with us?" he asks.

I hear her gasp of surprise. "I was going to ask you tonight after dinner, but know seemed like a good time."

"Everyone is okay with this?" She asks me.

I laugh at her question. "Of course, but if you want to you can ask them at dinner."

"If they are both okay with it then yes, Rick I'd love to." She smiles and I smile back before I kiss her, but I keep it light.
