Decisions have been made and stands taken, but someone from their past will force them to face one another one more time. Will Caskette conquer all? This is my first fanfiction EVER!

Mild Spoilers for 5x09 "Secret Santa" "This Christmas is going to be awesome!" he declares, pressing his fingers over his mouth to contain the excitement that looks ready to fly out of him and race around the room somewhere near the ceiling, like the witch in the Wizard of Oz. Change of Rating to M. COMPLETE

The rain has lessened, she thinks inanely, clinging to the random scraps of reality that she can process as they zip and crisscross through her brain. Much less than the downpour that stranded them here, on the side of some highway in the middle of New Jersey. A season four story, set after 'Cuffed.' One-shot. NOT a Christmas story. :)

AU: Beckett is a uniform on the Vice squad at the 12th, five years before she and Castle actually meet in the show. Based on an idea of Cartographical - chezchuckles and I just liked it so much that we each wrote our own. Variations on the same theme, sort of.
