Sorry about the late update I started a new story so I was sort of busy with that and plus I had writers block for this one.
He had rushed into her apartment holding his heart in his hand, in a matter of just a small amount of time from the happiest night of his life. A psycho targeting Kate had blow up her apartment.
"Kate. Are you in there? Kate," He yelled breaking through the burning door.
"Kate. Kate," He was on the verge of tears when there was no sign of movement in the apartment. He didn't even get to do all the things he wanted that involved her; moving in his loft, marriage proposal and hopefully one or two maybe even three mini Castle babies.
His thoughts of grief were interrupted by a small cough.
"Kate?"
She gripped onto the bath tub with her long slender fingers.
He let out a sigh of relief and ran to her.
"Kate, you're alive."
"Oh and you're naked." He stated when he got close enough to see her whole body.
"Castle, turn around." She yelled to trying to cover herself with no avail.
He obeyed her request just happy to hear her voice again.
"You know your apartment is on fire now might not be the best time for. I've already seen you naked." He stated.
She ignored him and raised her hand expectantly.
"Castle hand me a towel." She commanded.
He looked in the direction where he knew she kept them and cringed.
"The towels are on fire."
"What about the bathrobe?" She tried.
"Do you have anything that is not flammable?" He joked almost turning to face her.
"Castle," She squealed.
He turned back around. "Sorry." He just couldn't understand why she was so shy.
"Give me your jacket."
He immediately shrugged it off and held it out for her without looking and a few seconds later they were walking out of the burning building.
She managed to convince him that she could walk for a grand total of 40 seconds. He had lifted her the moment they got out of the apartment and she buried her face in his chest in embarrassment.
"I thought I had lost you." He whispered.
The way his voice quivered when he said it made her raise her head and kissed him.
"Never, you're stuck with me for a long time." she assured.
Kate had been put off of the case after she'd disobeyed the direct orders of agent Jordan Shaw and his desperate pleas for her the stay the van. She put her life in danger running after the man who was trying to take her life.
Castle broke his thoughts and tuned back into the argument currently happening between her and Montgomery.
"You've been running flat out for days, you need to go home and get some sleep." He yelled.
"Sir I don't have a home."
Castle sat up changing his voice to a more commanding one.
"Yes you do. It's a secure building with an extra bedroom, people who care about you with the federal detail at the door it's the safest place in the city."
"Thank you Castle but I couldn't." She refused.
"You can and you will."
"Detective I took that detail off of your apartment and that gave him an opportunity to get to you and I'm not going to make the same mistake twice. Consider it an order. Montgomery added helping Castle in the process.
Kate climbed into the bed that night next to Castle and he immediately wrapped his arms around her.
"Well the good thing about you being off of the case is that now I have you all to myself." He told her suggestively.
Their eyes locked in fiery passion as he lower his face closer to hers. At that moment, they forgot about all of the crazy things they had been through, they forgot about the whole world, just him and her.
Castle pressed his lips on Kate's and kissed her so passionately with all the intense feelings that he kept bottled up in side for the last few nights since they said I love you.
She unbuttoned his shirt, unlatched his lips from her chest and pulled him over her before connecting their lips again.
"Castle, make me forget."
This was how he wanted his life to be, Kate standing in his kitchen making breakfast in his shirt.
"I literally just woke up and smelt the coffee and the bacon!" Castle announced his arrival excitedly.
"Dropping by to return your key?" He gave Martha a kiss on her cheek and walked around to Kate's side and kissing her deeply and whispering into her ear.
"Very funny, very funny. No I'm looking for my other gloves because these clash. Well she cooks." Martha said not ignoring how domestic and natural the couple were living together with the kissing and Kate hitting Castle with a spatula to prevent him from swiping a strip of bacon.
Kate went on through a story about her mother and usually he would be sitting in front of her listening attentively, but he just couldn't stop thinking about how he never wanted her to leave, his apartment again. He wanted her to make it her new home.
"Grams!" Alexis exclaimed when she saw Martha.
"There's my girl, Oh! I missed you."
"I missed you too."
His mother and Alexis flew to each other and immediately headed up the stairs leaving the two on their own.
He wrapped his arms around her waist.
"You'd think it was months. It's been a day... You know I have to say you look really amazing in my kitchen. It's almost like you belong here." He told her trailing wet kisses along her neck causing her to close her eyes.
"It makes me think that you should seriously move in and skip getting a new apartment." Castle added.
Kate froze and he tightened his grip around her so she couldn't run.
"I'm serious Kate."
Her phone rang before she could say anything and she quickly slipped out of his arms.
"Let me think about it first Castle because this was a really big step."
She turned to back him and answered the phone then turned around again to see Castle sneaking a piece of scorching scramble egg to Martha and Alexis returning down with a newly claimed pair of blue gloves chatting and laughing.
She wasn't leaving that apartment.
Hope you enjoyed leave a review or a suggestion, any one will do : )
