I am so sorry that it took me forever to upload this story. I had stuff going on, then I wrote this chapter, then rewrote it because I wasn't too sure about it.

So I hope you guys like it and don't hate me too much for waiting so long. Enjoy!

Sara sat there in her car staring at Jim Beckett's house. Kate had been in there for hours now and Sara wanted to know what they were doing. She assumed Kate was telling their father about all the horrible things Sara had done to her. It's not that Sara was a bad person, but she was just so jealous at the fact that Kate got to grow up with a father. Honestly, if they weren't in this whole situation Sara thought she would probably get along with Kate really well. The similarity between the two was astonishing then again they were sisters. At that moment Kate walked out of the house. Before she left the porch she turned and gave her father a hug and kiss. The site before her made Sara jealous. She wanted to hug her father like that. After Kate got in her car and left Sara walked up to the door and knocked.

"Hello," Jim said as he opened the door, "I've been waiting for you to stop by."

With that he ushered Sara into the house.

"Castle," Kate called as she stepped into the loft, "Are you here?"

"Hey," he said as he peaked out of his office, "How's your dad?"

She walked to the kitchen and he followed, "He's doing well. We had a nice long talk about everything and even though I'm not happy about the whole thing I understand why he did what he did."

He started making tea as she sat down at the bar and watched him.

"Anything you want to talk about?"

"No, I just want to forget everything that my dad said and focus on planning our wedding."

"Kate, if this is a bad time to be doing this we can postpone the date for however long you need."

Kate got up and walked to him, "The only thing I need right now," she grabbed this hands, "Is to be married to you."

There was that goofy grin of his that she loved.

"Alright then, let's plan this wedding."

Castle leaned down to kiss Kate. It felt like they hadn't kissed like this in forever which caused the kiss to become passionate. Just then the teakettle started whistling signaling that the tea was ready. They broke apart laughing at the situation.

"Go get the tea ready Mr. Castle. We're going to need something to drink while we plan this wedding."

"As you wish Mrs. Soon to be Castle. "

She laughed at that one before she sauntered off to the living room leaving Castle there to think about how he couldn't wait to call her Mrs. Castle. This wedding couldn't be soon enough.

"Why did you leave me?" Sara commanded Jim to tell her.

"Sara, I loved you and your mother very dearly, but your mother made me choose."

"Really? Because the way she saw it was that you left us for Kate and her mother."

"I never meant to hurt you."

"Well you did. You've screwed up my life! Because of you I can't help but be jealous of Kate, I've had horrible luck with guys in the past, and not to mention I can't trust people."

Jim felt awful. He had completely screwed up his daughter's life and all he wanted to do was help her, "Let me make it up to you."

"I don't really see how you can."

"Let me be there for you. I wasn't in the past, but now I can be. Please Sara."

He could see the wheels inside of her head turning as if she were pondering his offer.

"Ok," she all but whispered. That's when she broke down and tears started spilling out of her eyes, "I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry. I never meant to hurt Kate or do any of the things I've done to her. Please forgive me."

Jim had embraced his daughter in a hug and was trying to soothe her.

"It's alright. It will all be alright."

"Will Kate ever forgive me?" Sara hiccupped out.

"Kate is very stubborn so I think it will take time, but she will come to forgive you."

Jim stared at his daughter as a very grim look covered his face. He lowered his voice and muttered the words, "I hope," more to himself than anything.
