I do NOT own Castle.
One A Day Still Doesn't Keep The Meddling Ghosts Away...
A puffy-eyed Kate Beckett was surprised to find Castle ringing her doorbell late one night, holding various tubs of ice cream, after she had just had a very nasty break up with Josh.
Said break up had only occurred a few hours ago, and she had yet to tell anyone, so of course she was curious as to how the writer knew.
"A little birdie told me." He would say no matter how many times she asked him once she had let him in, and he told her that he was there to bring comfort food after hearing about her break up with Josh.
Even though she still didn't know how he knew she needed company, she was grateful that he came over, bringing ice cream and cheering her up with his antics.
She was, however, starting to doubt his sanity when she walked in on him talking to himself, for the third time, but brushed it off as they got caught up in a conversation that eventually led to them talking about their childhoods.
"You know, I wish you could have met my mom, I think she would have liked you." Beckett casually mentioned, completely missing the look Castle gave to an invisible form casually floating in the air off to the side of them.
"If you only knew..."
She looked at him with a confused expression but he distracted her with something else, trying very hard to ignore the form of Johanna Beckett floating around the apartment, watching them with an amused, and pleased, expression.
Beckett was wrong. Johanna didn't like him, she loved him. Loved to mess with him, and his love life, that is.
