A few days after the wedding and the party; the newlyweds were enjoying an afternoon to themselves. They were sitting on the couch together. Kate was at one end of the couch while Rick was at the other end. Rick had a book in hand while Kate was doing a bit of online shopping for the twins. They'd be getting a big baby present from everyone at the precinct in a few weeks. Jim's gift for his grandkids was on it's way. Martha was doing her own shopping as was Alexis.
Periodically Kate would show Rick an outfit or an individual piece of clothing for either one of the twins to see what he thought of it. She was currently on the Carter's website on her iPad. One of Rick's credit cards was nearby on the coffee table.
"What do you think about this dress?" Beckett asked as she turned her iPad around for Rick to see.
"It's cute, Harley will be adorable in that." Castle said when the denim shirt dress that Kate had up on the screen.
"I'll add it to the cart."
"Okay."
After a few more dresses, outfits, onesies and pajamas for Harley; Kate started to look for Liam.
"What's the total at now?" Castle asked.
"Does it matter, babe? It's for our kids."
"I was just curious."
"It's a couple hundred dollars."
"Couple hundred….okay." Castle said with a smirk.
A few minutes later, Kate was all done with her shopping.
"And the grand total is….?" Castle asked again.
"Let's just say it's a couple thousand."
"Okay and when is the expected delivery date?"
"March 1st…" Beckett said cheekily.
"Very funny, I meant when are the clothes being delivered?"
"Oh…"
There was a smile in Kate's eyes in that moment.
"Okay, I'll let the doorman downstairs know."
"Okay."
With that, Kate set her iPad down on the coffee table and then rested her head on Rick's lap to take a nap.
