"So?" Jake said as Courtney stepped in the door. "How did it go?"

"Oh, it was fantastic," Courtney said with angry sarcasm. "It was just fucking fantastic. I haven't seen my sister in fourteen years, and then after we reunite, it's just so great to have to lie about half of my life to her! I told her about everything after I ran away, including meeting and falling in love with you, which is all true of course, but then everything after that is all lies! I have to tell her that you're a fucking chemist because I can't tell her that you actually make meth, considering that she's a cop! I just loved telling her about how we're both soooo devastated about your mom's death and about how I didn't know anything! But oh wait, I DO! I KNOW EVERYTHING BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE WHO KILLED HER! So yeah, it was great!" she yelled. She was now crying angry tears, so upset that after the one wish she's always had- being reunited with her sister- she has to lie about her life.

"I... I don't know how much longer I can do this, Jake," she choked out.

Jake's eyes widened. "Do what, Court? Do you mean-"

"Oh God no," she said, cutting him off. "I didn't mean us. I want to be with you forever baby, nothing's going to change that. I mean lying to Kate. Having to hide."

Jake turned slightly angry. "So what do you suggest you do about it then, huh? Turn us in? Go to jail? You think that is going to fix things?"

"No," Courtney said calmly, "I'm thinking that I should talk to Kate about it and see what she says. She just got me back, Jake. She's not going to arrest me. I can work something out with her."

"Or we can kill her," he said.

"WHAT?" Courtney yelled.

"We can kill her," he repeated.

"Oh I heard what you said! What the fuck, Jake, we can't kill her! She's my sister! We've barely gotten away with one murder; we can't commit another! And she's a cop! We'll never get away with it! Why would you even believe that it would work?"

Jake grabbed her hands gently. "I know I sound crazy, but you have to listen to me, Court. She's the only person who's suspicious of us. That's the reason we killed my mom, right? She was going to turn us in, and Kate will do the same exact thing. It's the same scenario with a different person. As much as this will pain you, it's the only way we can do this."

"I just got her back," Courtney whispered to herself.

Jake tipped her chin up and looked into her eyes. "I know you did, but this might just be the only way. Just think about it, okay? We can talk more about it later."

"Okay," she sniffled.

He could see how tense she was, so he said, "How about we go out to the alley and smoke? I made a bunch today."

She nodded briefly.

He smiled, kissed her forehead, and led her out the door.


Castle stopped at the red light. Kate was looking around, and she realized that they were at the light right in front of Courtney and Jake's apartment. Looking to the left at the building, she could see right down the alley.

She saw two dark figures in the alley. There was a huge cloud of smoke around them, and as Kate inhaled, she started to smell what she thought was meth.

Kate's jaw dropped as she saw the couple both drop their pants and the girl get pushed up against the brick wall. The guy grabbed her legs and wrapped her legs around his waist as he entered her.

"Oh fuck!" she heard the girl practically scream.

Kate's jaw dropped to the floor.

It was Courtney and Jake.
