"So exactly how serious are you and Detective Beckett?" Alexis asked while helping her father pick out an outfit.
"Well you are smart, you can determine how serious we are tonight." He said chuckling.
"Red or purple?" he asked holding up two ties to his chest.
"Purple!" she said taking the red tie and putting back in the closet.
"You are a genius." He said tying the tie.
"Who knows where I get it from." She said grabbing her things.
"You ready?" he said putting his coat on.
"I was born ready." She said taking his arm.
Meanwhile, she sat there more nervous than she had ever been before. She thought that a night with Castle and his daughter would be completely fun and stress free but she was wrong. While getting ready she realized how serious this was. She had never done this before. She had never been serious enough with a guy to meet his family. She had met Alexis before, and she was a great kid, but it meant something this time.
In reply to one of the comments to the last chapter, you can write in your own part to the story. I like to leave some to the REVIEW :)
Right in the middle of her thought, the doorbell rang. She hopped up and pushed the wrinkles out of her dress. She took a minute to breath and calm down before walking swiftly to the door. She opened the door and saw Castle, and his red headed daughter.
"Hello." She said reaching up and grabbing her coat.
"Hey detective Beckett!"Alexis said reaching her arms out for a hug. She attacked Kate, and squeezed her tightly. Beckett was tense at first, but she relaxed as soon as she saw castle's smile. He had the proud father smile on his face, and it made her smile. She loved seeing him like this.
Alexis released her death grip on Kate, and she smiled at her. Kate began to wonder why she had been so nervous. Alexis was a great kid, and she knew it would be a great night.
"Shall we?" He said holding out both of his arms for them.
