"No, I'm not getting in the closet!" Beckett whispers.

"Okay, fine. Just...get behind me."

She retreats, grasping his duvet-covered waist.

Castle attempts nonchalance as his mother enters the room. "What're you doing here?"

Martha's eyes don't meet his as she recites her practised plea. "Well, I wanted to talk to you about your daughter's many fine qualities–"

"Do we have to do this now?" Castle whines.

Martha looks up, a slight arch in her brows when she notices the unexpected guest.

"Oh, Katherine! What a surprise. Good to see you two finally finding your rhythm." Martha winks knowingly.

A/N: Since this is only allowed to be 100 words, I did cut some parts of the dialogue/scene. Hope this still satisfies!
