Package
Days later there was a bit of a surprise waiting for Castle and Beckett when they got to the precinct. There had been a package waiting for them at Beckett's desk. Neither of them were quite sure of who had sent the package or what the package exactly was.
"Who left this?" Beckett asked as they got to her desk.
"A messenger. He didn't say who it was from either." Ryan said.
"There's only one way to find out what is inside." Castle said.
Beckett took Castle's hint. With that Castle and Beckett opened the package. What they found inside was a framed photo of Castle and Beckett together just after they got married. With the framed picture was handwritten note from the person who gave the gift to them.
Welcome to the family; Mrs. Katherine Houghton Castle. You are a wonderful addition to the family.
"I know who this is from." Castle said.
Espo and Ryan were a bit confused.
"Your father."
"Yeah."
Beckett and Castle loved the gift from Castle's father; Jackson Hunt.
The work day went on after that. Both Castle and Beckett reveled in the gesture of the gift from Castle's father.
Later on that night; there was another surprise waiting for Castle and Beckett.
"Mother, what's this?"
"Oh, it came for you this morning. Why? Is it important?"
"Mom, there's something I want to tell you."
Castle and Beckett's eyes went straight to the package that was waiting for them when they got in that night.
"Mother, what's this?"
"Oh, it came for you this morning. Why? Is it important?"
With that Castle looked at Beckett. Once again they both knew who the package was from.
