As requested by some, here is the start of how Castle met Genevieve Beckett and how he came to marry her mother. AU. Prequel to "When her two favorite people fight" and "Lucky to Have You" but can stand alone. Eventual Connected series of one shots.

AU End of Season 2. Everything changes when Castle decides he's had enough. How does Kate handle his departure? What happens when they next meet? Rated M for Adult Situations. ***Officially Abandoned, Sorry***

'Castle opens his mouth, determined to set the words free in this moment of solace with her, but the noise that escapes his throat is hoarse, raspy, silent. He can't speak.' AU for 4x16, Linchpin. Two shot.

A storm rolls in that night. Post Knockdown.

Dreamworld is a Caskett story about how Kate's life might have gone if her mother hadn't died. Will she become a lawyer? Will she find the love of her life? Will she start a family of her own? Starts in December 1998.

What if Detective Kate Beckett didn't meet Richard Castle because of the Tisdale case? What if they were childhood friends? Best friends even? What if Johanna Beckett never died in that alley? AU. Set way before season 1.

Prompt: Headhunters; After Slaughter punches Castle in the gut, and after Kate walks away, Castle feels an explosion of pain in his midsection and passes out.

In which people have their soulmate's last words on their body. You're here. I'll be home soon. COMPLETE.

"She knew it was a bad idea. She doesn't know how, but she did. She could tell he had something in mind by the way his tongue was working her neck, ravishing her alive like a starving man." Story based off the two pictures that made Twitter go ballistic today. (Fanart inspired fic. Art found in my bio.)

Castle gets shot at Montgomery's funeral

It all started with flowers - an AU story that starts during 3x13. Castle goes to comfort Kate on a bad day, not knowing that bringing her flowers is the start to something entirely different. Some references to/lines from episodes.

There is a snowstorm and the detectives have to stay at the precinct so the families have been brought in for the evening to be kept safe. While they are there secrets are told, confidences are made and the ladies find out things about the guys they never knew.

They turn in opposite directions and his skin is on fire, hot annoyance like acid through his veins and - it stuns him - he's hurt. Set S2 during When The Bough Breaks. M for language and content. Now Complete.

"She asked him once what his perfect day would consist of. In response, he wrote her a list of all the cool awesome things that he would include in this so called "perfect day." Laser tag was the first thing on that list."

This follows directly after the episode "To Love and Die in LA". Contains spoilers for season 3 at this point.

A short story on seduction between lovers.

"He loved her. He wanted to marry her. He loved her more than his job, more than his plans. He already considered her to be a part of his family. In spite of everything that had happened today, she could honestly say that she had never been happier in her life." Smutty post ep for Deep Cover. One shot.

They'd survived kidnappings, a fire and a father who could never tell a straight story... but together, they would be just fine. Post ep for 6x11-12, with reference to season 5's two parter.

"Ca-Castle! You two slept together?" Ryan practically screamed in shock. Everybody around them turned around and looked at them. "Great. Thank you Ryan," Kate groaned and went back to Lanie. Castle wanted to follow her, but Esposito grabbed his arm. - What will happen when everybody starts finding out about them?

Beckett has planned a little vacation for both her and Castle, but she will not tell him where they are going. Will he like this surprise and will he already be planning an even bigger surprise for Kate? Filled with Caskett wonderfulness and Caskett babies!

"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival" C.S Lewis. In the aftermath of the toxin, Castle realises that he can't be there for Beckett the way he once was, but he'll be damned if he leaves her partnerless and lonely. Post 602, lots of Beckcord/Rickcord bromance

"It's too bad. We would have been great." "You have no idea". What if they did have a little idea? Series start with a significant detail altered.

Castle and Beckett are married and are now dealing with the idea of having a baby! Summaries are not my thing, sorry!

Rick and Kate celebrate the new year and their lives may be changed for ever. Please give it a chance, the summary is really horrible.

What happens when Kate falls pregnant while Castle is on a book tour? And the unborn child is not his. Will he forgive her or is this the beginning of the end?

He would die the way he'd lived. For her.

Those warm, heavy, "I want a baby" feelings didn't scare Kate so much anymore. Shamelessly fluffy pregnancy fic. Set beyond s5. Rating subject to change

"He pushed her and she fell. And fell. And fell. Her weapon slid out of her hand. She rang for air when she hit the water, but instead of air, she inhaled water. The water was cold and she felt icy instantly. She coughed to get the water out of her lungs..." **Chapter Three I don't care is up**

Because I don't believe Kate is the only one who has trouble saying 'I love you.'

Castle has been with the love of his life for nearly a year and is spending a week telling her just how much he loves her. But when an old face comes back into Kate's life, it has the potential to all go horribly wrong. But it isn't what they think. Inspired by Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man" but not a songfic.

What happens when the guys (with Lanie and Jenny) accepts the offer to spend the weekend with Castle and Beckett in the Hamptons? I'm sure it's been done before, but seriously, does a trip to the Hamptons ever get old? Enjoy!

Another night. One more night that Kate spent torturing herself, thinking about Richard Castle. A few days ago, he gave her a letter: his resignation letter. Why? **English version of "Ce n'est qu'un au revoir" **

Everything changes in the blink of an eye.
