I just escaped from possibly the most awkward date in the history of Earth, and I need to decompress. I brought ice cream. And wine. And cupcakes. 1x7, Home is Where the Heart Stops.

AU after S3. Its been just over a year since Rick was shot, nearly 2 since Kate was. She lives with him now, and late one night, she discovers that she isnt the only one having nightmares and Rick isnt the only Castle that worries about her. Kate finally gets the mother daughter relationship she's been missing, even if it is a little different. Kate/Alexis, established Caskett!

Castle and Beckett will do anything in their power to protect an abused little girl. However, when the case threatens to reveal their secret relationship to the world, will they be forced to give it all up?

This picks up where Always ends. It's about the possible journey of things moving forward, both for Caskett and the fallout from the events of Always. It's AU for after Always since I have no idea what season 5 will bring. SQUEE!

Join Kate, Castle and their three kids for a summer at the beach. Fluffy summer fun.

What was she supposed to do with this information? They had just dumped the information in her lap with brotherly concern and a disconcerting faith that she would know what to do. Katherine Beckett didn't have the faintest idea. Light drama with Caskett, too. NOW COMPLETE

The model on the cover of the Nikki Heat books shows up dead on the steps in front of the DA's office with a warning that the "real" Nikki Heat will be next. Story is set in Season Three. COMPLETE.

After a difficult case, Kate decides she's tired of waiting and wants to experience a sample of the heat between her & Castle. She never dreamed things would get so out of control.

Beckett is awaken by a call and it's from the last person she expected. Alexis has been attacks and needs her...

Post Always... New take to the post love bliss scene... AU set s5 opening scene :

A series of bedroom - and maybe a bathroom and deck and other locations near a bedroom- conversations between Beckett and Castle in the first year or so of their relationship.

Set 18 months after 'Always' and things have changed. Meredith attempts to sweep back into Castle's life but she is in for a big surprise!

Great relationships are based on little things ... starts at the end of "One Life to Lose"

Sometimes a countdown is necessary.

Sometimes, the only way to become whole is to break first. Post-Limey/Headhunters.
