"There's one!" Kathleen cried out as they were reaching the seating area.

"One what?" Peter said before he looked over to where the girl was pointing, and his eyes widened when he saw the large plane in the distance.

"That'll be an A380," Skye said, looking with the kids.

"Are you staying grá?" Mary asked as she and Castle walked to the path over to the restaurant.

"Will you be alright?" Skye asked.

"I'll go with them," Jim said quickly.

"You don't have your radio Mum?" Marie asked her.

"It's back in the car," Skye replied, getting her camera ready. "I'll get it once this one lands."

"How close does it get…" Clive said slowly.

"Close but we'll be alright; don't worry," Skye said with a smile at him.

The plane was closer, and Fleur cried out, "Corée!" to her mother.

"Does that mean Korea in French?" Eliza asked her mother as the plane was a Korean Air.

"It does," Beckett said though she was speaking absently as she was checking on Josie. The baby sitter had brought her, and she was in her carrier with her headphones on and seemed to be alright.

"Is she kay?" Eliza asked.

"She is," Beckett replied reassuringly. She then smiled at her second youngest and said, "You didn't take a picture."

"I don't have my camera," Eliza replied. When her mother looked at her in surprise she couldn't help smiling and told her, "I wanna watch, you're gonna take pictures and so is Jules."

"Okay, but stay here," Beckett told her firmly. "Are you alright with her?" she asked Martha.

"I am, go," Castle's mother urged her as she was sitting at the table already next to the carrier. "I think Skye's about to leave."

"I am, I was just going to let you know," the investigator said before she then hurried down the sidewalk to where one of the cars was.

"What's the radio?" Mari asked Julia.

"It goes to the… tower?" the girl asked Marie and Kathleen.

"It does but she can't talk to them, just hear," the latter said.

"There's another one," Ivy said rapidly as she'd been watching the sky to the east.

"It's a Southwest," Skye said, walking back to them already.

Hearing the McDouglas kids groaning Peter shared a confused look with Clive and Mari and asked, "What is it?"

"Southwest has a hub here," Skye said. "And their terminal is right there," she told them, pointing out the planes in the distance. "So we see quite a lot." She saw that Peter looked thoughtful and she said, "If there's anything you want to know about the airport or planes you can ask. No question is silly." She smiled when the boy did before he was asking her while the plane went by them.

"There's more than one runway… you said two, right?" Peter said slowly.

Nodding Skye said, "Two here and on the south side of the airport are two more. We're not going to see every-" she started to say before the radio had had put on her belt started to speak.

"Is that an Air France?" Mari asked as they all listened to the conversation between the pilot and tower.

"It is," Skye said, looking at her watch. "It's an A350," she told them.

"How do you know that?" Eliza said with wide eyes.

"They have… schedules?" Marie started to say before looking at her mother.

"Right, they'll come at a certain time and day of the week," Skye replied. "This one's coming from Papeete."

"Pa… what?" Clive asked.

"It's in Tahiti," Beckett commented. When the three kids looked at her she said, "Did Julia tell you that's where we go?"

"I never said the city Mom," the girl explained to her.

"It's the capital," Beckett said simply as the plane was nearing. She noticed that Julia took a picture of the plane quickly before turning to her. "We're still going," she said quickly.

"You knew what I was going to ask?" Julia said as she was smiling.

"I did," Beckett said.

"There's a Virgin America plane on the way," Skye said, listening to her radio. "And another Southwest." At the groans of her daughters she laughed and then told them, "Alright, alright I know you lot don't like there being so many of those, but they need to land somewhere."

At that moment Castle, Mary and Jim returned with their drinks; since they weren't going to order food just yet; and the writer went over to his wife as Jim sat with Martha to watch Josie.

"Anything interesting?" Castle asked his wife.

Beckett listed the planes and said, when he glanced to the sky, "I know what you're thinking," speaking in Irish.

"How would you know?" Castle said.

Shaking her head Beckett said, "I thought the same when she said the name of the city. But we have a while until… whenever we go."

"It's still for your birthday, whenever that is," Castle said rapidly.

Beckett couldn't respond right away as an Alaska Airlines plane passed them by and she smiled as Eliza was squealing as the Eskimo in the back had a lei around it. When it had gone to the runway, she turned her attention back to her husband and said, "It doesn't need to be if it's past the seventeenth. We can make it just for us."

"True… but you realize in the end it is about us," Castle pointed out to her.

"That's me telling you we should do that anyway," Beckett replied. When her husband wrapped his arm around her she smiled and then told him, "We need to stop."

Castle studied her, since that seemed to be a strange thing to say when they were surrounded by their family, friends and strangers, but realized there was another reason she'd said that. "What's wrong?" he asked her.

Shaking her head Beckett didn't reply to that, but with her husband watching her instead of an American Eagle plane she sighed. "I did want to do something tonight," she told him.

"Me too," Castle said.

"We were together the last two nights," Beckett commented.

"Yes, and we've done that before," Castle replied. "Remember we just let things happen as they will."

"You'll use any excuse to use that phrase," Beckett told him teasingly. When he nodded; smiling at the same time; she laughed and squeezed his arm before she said, "I know… I just wonder if it's normal."

"It is," Castle replied. When she looked at him, he shrugged and then said, "Really."

Beckett shook her head; smiling at the same time; before she said, "Okay, but we should focus on them now."

"Oh, that reminds me," Castle said. "How's Josie been doing?"

"Good, she's awake if you're wondering," Beckett said. She wasn't surprised when her husband let her go and she watched him go to the carrier to check on the baby. When he took her out she said, "She won't see them."

"It doesn't matter," Castle said quickly, making sure the headphones were okay on her head.

"Never too early to introduce them to planes," Skye said with a smile as she had walked up to them.

"You taught them all to fly," Beckett said suddenly, realizing that about their past lives.

"Oh sure," Skye replied.

"You'd be more surprised if she hadn't," Liam called from where he was with the kids, holding the radio.

"That's true," Beckett admitted before she smiled. "And despite my protests."

"For all of that you didn't care in the end," Skye replied. "Just you being a mother."

"That's not a surprise either," Castle commented.

"Mum!" Kathleen called. "There's a 747 coming in."

"I was just checking on Josie myself," Skye said swiftly.

"Richard," Martha called. When he turned she asked, "What are we doing tomorrow?"

"School," Beckett answered before her husband could. "We need to catch up."

"But what about practice?" Julia said, looking at the investigator.

"We're only practicing for a few hours," Derek said, responding to his partner's glance. "And I think you need to pay more attention to school."

"That's unfair," Mari said, pretending to grumble.

"We don't get to go to the camera blocking, do we?" Peter asked.

"Not this time," Skye said. "But once you lot dance you'll need to go for that."

"Would you ever have us dance with you again?" Julia asked rapidly as an Alitalia plane was going by.

Waiting for the plane to go by Derek said once it had, "I will if it calls for kids."

"Hey," Clive said. "We're good dancers," he continued with before they all started to laugh.

"We'll let you know," Derek said when they'd managed to stop.

After they'd watched the planes for nearly an hour more Castle went inside with Mary, Liam and Jim to order their food.

"I thought that was so cool," Peter was saying to Skye as they were sitting for another rest from standing. "The music videos," he explained as she looked at him.

"Oh, I'm glad you enjoyed it, you were mostly watching," the investigator said.

"So you can really play the guitar you had," Clive said.

"I can, we all had our instruments," Skye said with a nod. She listened to her radio and said, "Interesting."

"What?" Marie asked.

"Swiss, I think they started a new route," Skye replied.

"Have you been there?" Julia asked.

"Switzerland?" Skye asked. She smiled when the five Hamptons kids nodded, and she said, "I have, a few times actually."

"For… your job?" Mari asked hesitantly.

"We went," Kathleen told her. "Once and the other times were for something about pilots."

Laughing Skye said, "Conferences in Zürich." She glanced at Beckett and was about to ask her friend what she wanted to know when the writer was speaking first.

"You can speak all the languages over there," Beckett commented.

"Everything except for Romansh," Skye said with a nod. She then glanced to the sky after the Swiss plane had gone by and said, "I think we have a bit of a break just now."

"Why is it so busy?" Julia said then, looking at the drive thru.

"It's always like this," Marie said.

"Because of the airport," Kathleen added.

"What's wrong mon petite?" Skye asked Fleur as the little girl had come over to her and wrapped her arms around her. When her daughter shook her head, she hugged her and said, "Would you like to go inside?"

Beckett wasn't surprised when Fleur spoke to her mother in French and Skye responded in turn. She felt a little bad that she could understand but wasn't surprised when the little girl was asking if everyone knew about her.

"They do," Skye told her. "But you're being very brave."

"You too Maman," Fleur said, pressing closer to her.

"Thank you, I'm very proud of you," Skye replied. She smiled and then hugged her daughter before she looked at Beckett. "You understood?" she asked her in Russian. When her friend nodded she said, "It's alright, she just doesn't want anyone to ask her about it."

"It makes sense," Beckett said with a nod.

"What are you saying?" Fleur asked her mother in English.

"Oh, just talking about how we love our daughters," Skye said. She smiled when Fleur blushed a bit and she kissed her cheek before she handed her the radio telling her, "Ĕtre á l'affut?" asking her to be on the lookout.

"Oui!" Fleur said happily before she went over to the sidewalk with her sisters and the other kids.

"Is it difficult for her still?" Derek asked, having gotten an idea of what the conversation in French had been.

With a brief nod Skye said, "There are times when she'll have nightmares. Luckily the last time Eliza was there with her and she comforted her." She then spotted the others coming with the food and she said quickly, "I should have asked her about the lookout after we ate," before she and Beckett got up to get the kids back to the table.

"But Mommy," Eliza said in protest. "There's another plane!"

"I see," Beckett replied, since she had seen the lights in the distance. "And we'll watch the plane while we're eating. You don't want your burger to get cold."

"We can stand," Julia said teasingly. She stifled a laugh when her mother gave her a 'you're not helping' look and went the rest of the way to the table where their family was.

While they were eating the parents were doing their best keeping the kids from running over to the sidewalk, which was difficult since there were more planes at that point. But when they had finished they went back to watch while the adults stayed at their tables.

"What time do you want me there?" Skye asked her partner.

"Nine," Derek said. "We'll practice until lunch."

"Do you want me to teach them at all?" Skye said to Castle and Beckett.

"After lunch we should have a day in Madrid," the former said.

Alright," Skye said with a nod. "But today wasn't all that bad."

"You're tired, aren't you?" Mary asked her wife with a smile.

"And you aren't?" Skye retorted quickly.

"Oh no, I am," Mary replied. "But at least you admitted it."

"Kind of in a roundabout way," Castle said.

"Close enough," Mary said, rolling her eyes before they started to laugh.

Beckett looked at the kids when she had calmed down and saw they were talking together as Marie was holding the radio. She was about to speak when she realized the older twins were starting to argue, beginning to call to Skye and Mary to let them know when the investigator was getting up.

"Marie, Kathleen," Skye said to them firmly. When they stopped and looked at her she said, "Why are we fighting over the radio?"

"I wanted to hold it," Kathleen said softly at her mother saying her full name.

"Which you have actually," Skye said. "Here," she told her oldest. When the girl had handed the radio to her she turned to Ivy and said, "Your sister hasn't had the chance yet. And if I hear arguing over it, it's going back into the car."

"Sorry Mum," the twins said together.

"I know, but we've talked about it," Skye said, motioning to the two so they would hug her. She squeezed them close and then said, "Though I don't blame you. Now, what're you going to do."

"Watch for the next planes," Marie said.

"Nice grá," Mary said to her wife when Skye sat down next to her.

"They always argue over that," the investigator said, shaking her head. She then smiled and said, "But I suppose there's something exciting in holding the radio."

"Can I ask you about next week?" Castle said after they were silent, watching a private jet coming in to land.

"Yes, we can go around the ship after I talk with Zak," Skye replied. She looked at the couple and said, "Not buying it?"

"Not really," Beckett said.

"Okay," Skye said. "We'll see them first as they want to film their segments. After that we can go through the ship, but I'd suggest going around quickly."

"The aquarium?" Mary asked.

"Why doesn't she know about this already lass?" Liam asked his daughter.

"I just realized," Skye replied.

"What about the lockdown?" Beckett said.

"Well, we'll only be there for half of it," Skye said. She opened her mouth to speak before she paused and then glanced over at her wife, who let out a heavy sigh.

"You're such a coward," Mary told her jokingly before she turned her attention to the other couple. "She's including you two."

"We already knew," Beckett commented. She smiled slightly when Skye turned her attention to her and said, "What you expect me to do though…"

"I suppose it's better to wait until we get there," the investigator said. She was about to speak again when Castle's phone began to ring asking, "Alexis?"

"Yeah… oh, it's only ten for her," he said, looking at his watch.

"Julia, Eliza," Beckett called out to the girls. When they looked over at her she said, "It's your sister."

"Hold on," Castle was telling Alexis. He tapped where he needed to so they could have a video call and handed the phone to Eliza. "Sweetheart," he said laughingly as she made a face at her sister.

"Lizzy," Alexis said with a smile. "How are you… where are you?"

"At the In-N-Out by the airport," Julia answered as Eliza moved the phone so they could all see the young woman. "We've been taking pictures. And we had dinner here too."

"It sounds like fun," Alexis said. "Did you watch the music videos being filmed today?"

"Yeah, we went to the train station, on the train," Eliza said. "And then the street in Mexico and the Promenade."

"The street in Mexico?" Alexis asked in confusion.

"Olvera Street," Castle hurried to explain. "An old street. We had lunch there before we walked around. Your ma and sister have pictures."

"I look forward to seeing those," Alexis said before Julia suddenly burst out speaking.

"We're going on Ghost Adventures next week," the girl said in a rush.

"Not exactly," Skye called so Alexis would hear her. "Your ma will be joining me, your dad and Mary there for support."

"We'll be able to see the episode, right?" the young woman asked.

"You will," Beckett said with a nod. "But that's next week. How are things with you?"

"That patient is still meeting with us," Alexis said. "But I'm working more with them, Dr. Frost thinks I can do better work with them than she can."

"So she has more trust in you," Castle commented.

"It looks like it," Alexis said, nodding. "That's it for me," she then said. "I should let you go to enjoy the planes," having to pause for one passing by.

"What was it?" Eliza asked her grandparents.

"Hawaiian Airlines," Jim said. "It's nice to see you Alexis."

"Oh, sorry Grandpapa, Gram," the young woman said. "I didn't see you there. And what about Josa?"

"She's asleep," Beckett said, glancing at the carrier. "But you're going to bed soon, aren't you?"

"Louis needs to," Alexis said. "I'm going to read some case work. I love you, all of you, and we'll talk soon."

Everyone in the family said goodbye to the young woman before she was hanging up her connection and Castle was doing the same with his. "Okay, how much longer do we have?" he asked his wife as the girls hurried back to the others.

"Not that much," Beckett said. She stood up and leaned over the baby saying, "Since she's asleep." She watched her husband lean over and kiss the baby's forehead before she watched Skye and Mary getting up to join their daughters. "Come on," she told him.

Castle was a little startled at his wife taking his hand, but when she tugged him towards the sidewalk he was quick to follow. And while they were watching the planes coming in he wrapped his arm around her waist as she began taking pictures. They listened to the kids exclaiming over each plane as it called on the radio and flew past them while dusk settled around them.


"Rick?" Beckett called to her husband as she leaned over the railing.

"Yeah?" Castle asked her, turning from the stove to look up.

"Is the tea almost ready?" Beckett said.

"Almost," Castle replied after he'd looked at the kettle. He then glanced up at her asking, "Am I taking too long?"

"No," Beckett replied. "I just feel awkward here by myself."

"It's ready," Castle said rapidly as the kettle began to whistle. He took it off the burner before he poured it out into the two mugs he had set up and then made his way up to his wife. "You don't want anything else?" he asked her.

"No," Beckett said firmly as she kissed him on the lips quickly. "This is enough."

"Did you get everything ready for them tomorrow?" Castle said as they sat on the window seat.

"I did, it didn't take very long," Beckett replied. She set her mug aside; to let it cool down; before she said to him, "What about you?"

"It didn't take me very long either," Castle replied. "Just some history and math… we are teaching them Friday?"

"We are," Beckett said with a nod. She then told him, "But Friday we'll stop early for P.E."

"A walk tomorrow?" Castle inquired. When she nodded he did the same and said, "Great."
"What is it?" Beckett asked him with a smile.

Shaking his head Castle said, "It's nothing."

"Really?" Beckett commented. When he looked at her in confusion she told him, "If you've thought of it I'm sure it's not nothing." She waited then, picking up her mug of tea to drink while she let him find what he wanted to say.

"It's… you asked if what we do is normal," Castle said. "How many times," he quickly corrected himself. "What was it like for you before?" he said after a moment of hesitation.

Beckett couldn't really pretend she wasn't aware of what her husband was talking about and she said, "It wasn't like it is now." She took another sip of tea and told him, "But that's all I really want to say."

"That's fine," Castle replied quickly. "You don't need to say anything else." He looked down at her mug and said, "Do you want another cup?"

"No," Beckett said, handing it to him. She watched him go and then leaned back, looking at the ceiling before she heard the water in the sink running. She stood up and was about to go downstairs to join him when she saw he was coming up. "That was fast," she said in slight surprise.

"I just filled them with water," Castle said, wrapping his arms around her as soon as he was with her. He kissed her but kept it gentle and short before they parted slowly making him say, "You wanted to…" stopping himself when he realized he wasn't sure he wanted to say that.

"Start?" Beckett finished for him. When her husband nodded quickly she smiled and said, "I would. But you should know I don't want to delay."

"Okay," Castle said, not sure what else he could say to that. When she kissed him, he held her tightly against him before they began to duel with each other's tongues until they moved away slowly. "What do you want to do first?" he asked.

"Here," Beckett replied, reaching up to him and unbuttoning his shirt. She pulled it apart once she had finished; as he had remained still and let her continue; and then said, "I didn't want to go that slowly."

"Yeah… I was enjoying that," Castle said though he wasn't speaking apologetically. He then took off his shirt himself before he moved to get rid of the rest of his clothes while she was doing the same in front of him. He watched her move to the bed and he was following, getting on his knees with her before she pressed her hand to his chest and he said, "I'm fine."

"You're sure?" Beckett said.

Leaning over, Castle kissed her gently on the lips before he said, "I am, but if you want me to lay down…"
Beckett's response to that was to kiss him, gently on the lips at first before she deepened it. She gasped into his mouth before she pulled away and said, "You took that as permission," teasingly.

"Yes," Castle said simply as he had reached around her and grasped her ass firmly.

"Come here," Beckett said, pulling him with her and making him lay down on the bed.

"I asked you," Castle told her teasingly.

"I know, but I think how I answered was a lot better," Beckett told him.

"I think I have to agree," Castle said after he pretended to contemplate that for a moment.

"Pervert," Beckett said with a slight laugh before they kissed one another. She let him slip his tongue into her mouth and turn her onto her back though she had wanted him to stay on his. Eventually they needed to stop and when they were apart she reached up and cupped his face before she said, "You interrupted me."

"I know, sorry," Castle said as he let go of her and moved to get on his back. He wrapped his arm around her, rubbing her back and saying, "What're you thinking?"

"You'll find out," Beckett said simply. When he frowned at her she laughed softly and said, "To be honest I wanted to pleasure you."
"First?" Castle asked to make sure.

"Yes," Beckett replied firmly.

"I'm going to let you," Castle said, studying her closely. "I know you want to." He wasn't surprised when she let out an exasperated breath and then pressed her face into his neck. He reached up to caress her hair and said, "As long as you enjoy it."

Raising her head Beckett said, "I do." She studied him for a moment and then leaned down, meeting his lips for a kiss that soon after became intense while she could feel him caressing the back of her body. When she needed to breathe she ended the kiss, pulling away from him and then moving, startled when her husband grabbed her. She looked at him in confusion before he asked her something that made her begin to smile.

"I can do the same to you, right?" Castle said.

"Do you really need to ask?" Beckett inquired, one eyebrow raised.

"I mean you're going to let me finish," Castle said.

"As long as you let me do the same," Beckett pointed out. When he nodded she smiled again and kissed him before he was responding, and they were soon dueling with their tongues again. She didn't let that last for too long, pulling away and then moving to kiss around his jaw. Moving from there she went to his chest, kissing at it a few times before she paused and then said, "Can I?"

"Yes…" Castle said, reaching up to hold onto the back of her head while she was lowering it. He let out a hiss as she wrapped her lips around his nipple and held her with his arm tightly, digging his fingertips into her skin since she had sucked at him. "Kate," he groaned heavily.

Raising her head, Beckett smiled and then kissed him quickly before she moved down his chest again. She worked on his other nipple for a bit, moving down as she found she couldn't wait any longer. While she was doing that she could hear her husband's breathing growing rougher and rougher and she didn't stop until she reached his erection and paused there to look at him.

"What is it?" Castle asked, trying not to strain at how close she was to him.

"Will it be alright if I touch?" Beckett asked him with a smile.

"Yeah but… not too much," Castle begged her.

Leaning over, Beckett pressed a quick kiss to his lips before she moved down as fast as she could until she reached where she'd left off. Taking his member in her hand she lowered her head to it and began to gently kiss him, going over him as much as she could until she had worked her way back up to the tip.

"I… I thought you s-said you were going to t-touch," Castle stammered as he was watching her licking at him almost hungrily. He couldn't wait for her answer, throwing his head down on the pillow under him as her tongue started to try and curl around him.

Hearing the way he was groaning her name, Beckett was pleased to get a reaction from him before she moved again. That time she was slipping him inside of her mouth and she immediately proceeded to bob her head up and down. She kept her speed slow at first and began to speed up a bit more while her husband was calling her name in pleasure. While she was doing that she reached up to him with her hand, gently cupping him as he yelled to her.

Relieved when his wife stopped shortly after that, Castle breathed out, "That… that would have been too much." He half expected her to respond, but she was still working over him and he didn't bother to say anything else, laying back on the bed fully again. She wasn't stopping over him and while he did his best to withstand her he groaned, "I'm going to come love… you're too g-good."

Though she wanted to smile at his stammering, Beckett nodded her head, hearing him swearing as she'd done it enough to move on him. When she felt he was calm she laved her tongue over the tip of him for a bit before she went back to working over him. Doing that for barely a minute more, she could feel his body under hers tense up and she knew he had reached his peak. Her name coming out of him in a near yell, she was quick to take his release and felt him stopping and starting to move as she knew he was trying not to thrust. Finally, he was laying still on the bed and she kissed over his erection that hadn't diminished yet before she let him pull her up to him.

Castle was pleased when his wife was ready to meet his kiss and they were holding onto one another tightly as he plunged his tongue into her mouth. After they'd parted he said, "Thank you," breathing out the words.

"You're welcome," Beckett said with a smile. "But I wanted to," she reminded him.

"Yeah," Castle said, breathing out hard again. He rubbed her back and then said, "I need to recover; don't think I don't want to."

"I wasn't thinking that," Beckett replied easily. She brushed her lips to his and then said, "But I wasn't going to make you start right now."
Castle nodded and then reached for her to bring her down to him for another kiss and once they'd parted he told her, "I can do something now."

A little startled, Beckett couldn't help letting out a gasp as her husband moved so he could flip her onto her back. She only had a moment to respond to his kiss but was lucky to have expected it enough to do so quickly. After they had parted she smiled and said, "I don't need anything so badly you-" when he was kissing her a second time. When he lingered, she realized why that was and she gently pushed against his shoulders so he would look down at her. "Don't worry," she said as he seemed to look both hopeful and concerned at the same time.

"About…" Castle began as she wasn't continuing after that.

"I still want you, but you don't need to race to me," Beckett replied before she reached up and cupped his cheek with her hand.

"I want you though," Castle told her earnestly. When his wife merely smiled at him he had to kiss her and he did so lovingly before they were parting and he told her, "I adore you Kate. I can show you, right?"

Beckett found she didn't really want to respond to that vocally, so she merely nodded her head before he was leaning down to her and kissing at her neck. She knew he would slightly follow what she had done to him as he moved back up to her jaw and she sighed in pleasure before he moved away.

"When you let me have your breasts again… I'm going to work them over," Castle groaned as he pushed himself up. "I mean," he said, frowning when he realized what he had said. "I'll do that with my mouth and hands and pleasurably so-"

Gently covering her husband's mouth with her hand Beckett said, "I know love, just hurry."

As he was nodding his head rapidly, Castle carefully moved her hand from his mouth before he went to her abdomen. He began to kiss over it gently and then trailed his lips down to her mound. Pulling away a little, he looked up at her to see she was watching him, and he took her hand that came down to rest on the top of his head. Kissing her palm lovingly he told her, "Is breá liom tú Kate," using Irish to tell her he adored her again as he felt it was needed.

"Is-" Beckett began, wanting to tell him the same before her husband was moving to her sex. She gasped as he pressed a firm kiss to her clit and then moaned when his mouth was taking the swollen nub to begin sucking on it gently. "Rick…" she sighed as she couldn't stop her body stretching in reaction to the pleasure that he was making her feel. When she stopped she wasn't surprised to find her legs were over her husband's shoulders or that he was holding onto her.

After a moment, Castle moved to go lower on her and gently slid his tongue past her swollen folds. He wasn't surprised when she cried out heavily in pleasure in response to him and he had to push his hands down on her legs so she wouldn't push him off her. He was able to calm her down slightly, but it wasn't for very long as he was moving his tongue within her, feeling her beginning to writhe underneath him. He brought his hand into play shortly after, realizing she was close already, and pushed her steadily to the edge.

"Oh… you… you haven't been working on me for that long!" Beckett moaned as she realized what he was doing. When he wasn't stopping, she arched her back and suddenly broke when his tongue rubbed hard against her that time, crying his name repeatedly. Her orgasm was rough, and she wasn't sure how much she was moving for him but he wasn't doing much to her so she let that go before she was slowing down and then completely still. "Thank you," she breathed when she felt she could speak.

Castle didn't reply at first, too busy making sure he'd finished completely until he was moving so he could lay next to her, kissing her hungrily. He was pleased when she responded to him and they were busy with their tongues for some time. When they had stopped and pulled away he pressed his forehead against hers telling her, "You're welcome."

"You enjoyed it?" Beckett asked him with a smile.

"As much as you enjoyed doing that to me," Castle assured her. He then laid down and wrapped his arm around her, pulling her tightly to his side before he said, "I hope we'll manage something else if you'd like."

"I don't blame you," Beckett replied. She couldn't help laughing when he was looking at her in surprise and she said, "I can feel you."
"Yes… I can feel me too and it's really making me hope I don't explode," Castle said swiftly.

"Why would you?" Beckett said in confusion.

"Even this…" Castle began.

"You don't need to kiss my ass," Beckett commented wryly.

"Oh of course not," Castle said, cupping his hand over her ass as he was well aware that was her invitation for him to do that. "But why are you so unaware of your power over me?"

"Is that you telling me that you want me to be a dominatrix right now?" Beckett said as she pushed herself up to get on top of his body. She raised her body up but kept her head close enough to him so she could feel his breath on her lips.

"You've never done that fully," Castle said. "And I really don't want you to."

"Are you sure?" Beckett said with a smile as she knew he was. When he pulled her down to him, she went with him before she was suddenly on her back again. The kiss over, she smiled at him and said, "I don't want to."

"It's a surprise," Castle confessed to her.

"I know," Beckett said, nodding her head. She then smiled and said, "I did that enough in interrogation, I deserve a break."

"And a reward," Castle said rapidly. When she looked at him in surprise he said, "You're good at it, and I wanted you watching you."

"While we were talking?" Beckett said. She smiled when her husband kissed at her ear before he nibbled at her lobe which made her sigh. "Rick… wait," she told him. She was a little surprised when he immediately pulled away and she said, "How-"

"I've taught myself to," Castle replied simply. He was going to ask her what she wanted when she grabbed his erection, jerking as he breathed out heavily. He moved with her so he could enter her and they were groaning in joy as they were shortly after coupled. "I…" he began. He stopped himself and said, "I'm so glad you're aroused."

"I wouldn't have pulled you here," Beckett said, pausing a bit here and there as she was moving her hips back and forth slightly and feeling him easily.

Castle was more than ready to move when he paused and asked her, "What do you want?" startled as she was shaking her head.

"You pick," Beckett said simply. She saw his desire to protest but she merely stared at him before he sighed and then bowed his head near her shoulder. Though she had to push herself up a little she raised her head and pressed a kiss to the side of his head. "What do you want Rick?" she asked him.

Looking at her Castle said, "I want to fuck you."
"I want you to do that too," Beckett said with a smile.

"Were you trying to get me to say that?" Castle asked her. When she just looked at him again he grit his teeth for a moment before he moved. He was pleased when Beckett cried out heavily in pleasure as he was rough immediately and he didn't pause, moving repeatedly until he realized she was moving her legs. "What-" he started to say.

"I wasn't sure what I wanted," Beckett replied, moaning throughout between her words. She'd wrapped her right leg around his waist and raised her left so he would hold it under his arm. Their first thrust after they were set in their position they were groaning together before he was leaning down to try and kiss her. She needed to push herself up, but they were able to meet and after their tongues were curling together in their mouths she reached up to hold onto his arms as tightly as she could.

Castle watched her fall back fully to the bed, moving at the same time to start varying his thrusts. He was pleased when her leg around his waist immediately tightened in response and he did that for some time. He kept his eye on her while he was giving her his slower thrusts. She arched her back and he felt her nipples just barely brushing against him, making him go into his harder thrusts. Beckett was crying out his name and her grip on his body was even stronger until he was slowing down again. He had no idea how many times he was doing that but finally he couldn't help himself and he stopped, turning her around with him so she was above him.

"Do you want me to…" Beckett began, gently running her hands over his hair, nails raking along his scalp.

Shaking his head Castle said, "This is just so we don't explode now." He smiled when she laughed softly, and they then kissed, doing so sensuously before he started to caress her hair and back until he was at her ass. There he hesitated, wondering if he should ask her for something he wanted badly when she had let him do so much already. Luckily his wife seemed to sense what he wanted, and she was bringing her lips against his to have them brush together while he spoke. "Can-" he began before he stopped himself and pulled away.

Beckett was startled when he had her get off him, but she moved quickly, losing her surprise when he pushed her against the headboard. She looked at him over her shoulder and asked in amusement, "You couldn't have told me that?"

"Not really," Castle said simply, kissing at her shoulder. He moved up to her neck and pulled her hair carefully out of the way before he was nibbling at her skin. "Love," he murmured to her.

"Here," Beckett said, reaching back to him and taking his hand. When she placed it on her ass she told him, "You made me anticipate."

"If you wanted it already you should have told me," Castle replied, moving his head so they could kiss. They were a little intense, but they soon parted, leading him to slap her firmly to her short cry.

"Again?" Beckett asked him.

Castle was momentarily surprised, but guessed she really did want him to, so he responded by slapping her a second time, grasping her ass a little hard before he was moving. Hearing her gasp as he pressed fully against his back he murmured into her ear, "Do you want this?"

"Yes, but…" Beckett started to say. She had to stop talking as her husband was reaching down in between her legs to rub her clit for a moment and she was moaning in response. When she had managed to stop she continued saying, "I want you to fuck me into the bed before we come."

"I will," Castle promised before he was taking her hand and they worked together to help him slip inside her sex. Once he was there he took her hips and while she was leaning over on the bed he thrust as hard as he could until his hips were slamming against her ass. He was groaning and swearing while she was crying out heavily at the sensation. He started to move and was hissing when she thrust herself and he kissed at the side of Beckett's head wildly, wishing he could get to her lips. But he made do with her back and shoulders until he stopped thrusting.

"Don't," Beckett said when she could feel her husband was about to move. "Lay me down."

Hearing her tone, Castle didn't respond verbally, instead moving to withdraw from her and allow her to lay down on the middle of the bed again. He moved down, sucking at her clit a bit before he pushed himself up and entered her again as she held onto him. Thrusting hard he ended up ramming into her and they both reacted vocally in their pleasure which made him start thrusting as soon as their skin was touching, his wife holding onto him tightly with both her arms and legs. He knew they were close, but she was begging him to fuck her, even as he was, and he tried to move faster to please her as they kissed hungrily.

After their kiss they were engaged in at that moment, she wasn't sure how many they'd been involved with, Beckett tilted her head back and she was moaning, "I'm going to come Rick… please… don't stop… I… don't stop fucking me… Rick!" before she broke. Her orgasm was strong and nearly took away her breath, but she wouldn't let it as she was calling Castle's name repeatedly until she was stopped feeling him joining her. She was gasping and clinging to him desperately as the sensation of his fulfilled desire was making her even hotter and her sex was throbbing uncontrollably. When she was stopping she was limp but sated while she waited for her husband to finish which he soon did.

"I didn't… hurt you… did I?" Castle asked panted before he was really ready to speak.

"No," Beckett said, glad he'd given her a moment to process the way he'd shuddered so hard with his last thrust that it almost turned into a second one. He'd collapsed on her a bit, but he had his weight above her enough and she squeezed his back with her hands. "Are you okay?" she asked him with a smile.

"Yeah," Castle said, breathing out heavily. He then moved to pull away from her, a little surprised when she let him go. He lay on his back and wrapped both his arms around her to pull her close against him. He kissed her deeply and after she slipped her tongue into his mouth he was rolling his around hers. They went back and forth between their mouths for a while until they had to breathe, and he pressed a few kisses to her hair. "Kate?" he asked when they'd been quiet for a few minutes.

"Hmm?" Beckett asked, pressing her cheek to his shoulder.

"Have I mentioned how much I love doing that?" Castle told her.

"Which part?" Beckett asked him with a smile.

"All of it," Castle said.

"Pervert," Beckett told him teasingly before they were kissing deeply. She reached up as they swiftly began dueling with their tongues and caressed his hair gently, feeling him shuddering in pleasure at her touch. After they had parted she nuzzled her nose to his and said, "So do I."

"It's a good thing we're going to Tahiti," Castle commented. They kissed again, gently, before he said, "Are you looking forward to that?"
"I am, I want to have the chance to enjoy some sun before winter really hits," Beckett replied.

"It feels like it's going to be a while until that," Castle said, as they were both fine without a cover over their naked bodies. Thinking of that he reached to her and ran his hand over her side until he rested it again the side of her ass. He looked down at her and watched her as she reached up to brush her fingers against his jaw and the side of his neck, making him shudder before he started to speak when she stopped him hurriedly by pulling him hard onto her body as she moved onto her back.

Beckett was pleased when she didn't really have to convey to her husband what she wanted, he moved so he was sliding into her and he began to move. As he was fast and hard immediately, she cried out a thank you before he crushed his lips to hers and they were kissing hungrily at the same time. They were climaxing together in a short amount of time and she was calling to him trying her best to take everything in before she was limp, and he was groaning her name as he finished. When he was still above her she said as she gently started to scratch his scalp, "Still with me." She couldn't help laughing when he groaned in response and she said, "Partially."

"Why are you all… conscious?" Castle asked jokingly as he raised his head to look at her.

"I had a little more time to recover," Beckett said with a smile before they kissed. When they parted, she reluctantly let him go, watching him lay back while she pushed herself up. He was reaching out to her and she smiled while she shook her head at him. Before he could protest, she gently covered his mouth with her hand and said, "I don't need to lay down just yet," waiting to see what he would say.

"Sure," Castle replied easily. He froze a moment when she leaned down but relaxed as she kissed him deeply. After they had parted he pulled her down to him and they were kissing again. Running his hands around her back at the same time he felt himself growing aroused again and he pulled away first saying, "I need to stop."

"Would it be a problem if we were together again?" Beckett asked.

"No, just… I want to take a long enough break," Castle replied.

"What would be a long enough break?" Beckett said with a smile.

"More than a few minutes," Castle said. He paused and then said, "Or seconds."

Beckett laughed and leaned down to kiss him before they parted and she said, "It would be nice, but we're not done."

"I'm glad we don't have much tomorrow," Castle said. He could feel his wife moving around and he said, "I know you don't want to talk about it, but we need to at some point."

Sighing, Beckett let herself collapse onto her husband, not surprised when he didn't say anything, and she said, "I don't know if we should do this."

"You said you could," Castle said. He could feel how tense she was and he suggested, "Maybe we should wait until we're clothed to discuss it."

"That would be better," Beckett said. When he rubbed her upper arm she said, "Sorry."

"No, you make a good point, it's awkward discussing this nude," Castle said. When she raised her head he asked, "Should I have used another word?"

"No," Beckett said slightly laughingly. Kissing him briefly she told him, "But we should talk about something else."
"Okay," Castle said. "The book you're reading?" He smiled when his wife laughed and when she had stopped he said, "I love you Kate," seriously.

"I love you too Rick," Beckett replied in the same tone. She cupped his cheek with her hand and leaned down, kissing him sensuously before he was responding hungrily. They did that for some time before they parted, and she bit at her lower lip before she pulled him with her.

With Castle on top of his wife's body partially, he and Beckett began kissing one another and did that repeatedly. They weren't stopping to move into making love again, just enjoying their kissing while they could. And as they touched one another they knew ultimately they would be intimate again. But for the time being they did what they could showing each other how much they wanted one another as their desire was intensifying yet again while they were embracing tightly.
