Celebrate
Sometime later; Castle and Beckett were back from their appointment with Dr. Wahl's. An extravagant lunch waiting for them. Jake had stopped by to see how the wedding preparation was going. Martha had invited her soon to be grandson in law to stay for lunch. At first Jake said no but after Martha insisted due to the fact that Jake was now family; Jake agreed to stay.
"So what are we having?" Martha asked after her son and daughter in law were home.
Castle and Beckett exchanged a No you tell them look.
"Oh just tell us already."
"We're having a boy!"
Everyone was thrilled to hear the news.
"Do you have a name picked out yet?" Alexis asked.
"We do." Castle replied.
"Well what is it?"
"James Roy Castle will be his name." Beckett said.
"That very sweet."
Jake was a bit curious when it came to his future brother in law's middle name. Beckett detected Jake's curiosity.
"Roy comes for my late Captain. Captain Roy Montgomery who died in the line duty a number of years ago."
It was clear that both Martha and Alexis approved of the baby's middle name.
"That is a lovely way to honor Captain Montgomery; darlings."
In the back of Castle and Beckett's minds it was clear that they both knew that Montgomery would be honored if he knew. They also knew Evelyn Montgomery and the kids would be pleased too.
"Captain Montgomery was and always will be family. It felt right to give his name to our son." Castle said.
With that Castle and Beckett put Kat and JJ in their respective high chairs. Alexis was helping Johanna Martha into her seat before she took hers. Jake and Martha took their seats. Once that was taken care; the family enjoyed the lunch that Martha had prepared.
A toast was made to Alexis and Jake in regards to their engagement. Another toast was then made to James Royce Castle. As they sat and ate; Castle took Beckett's hand in his and squeezed it three times in a row.
"I love you too; babe." Beckett responded.
