Because in the end they are still standing on either side of the stage. One will exit stage right, the other left. And both will be unsure of how the story really ends.

There was supposed to be more time, but as some of us know, there is never enough.

AU. What happens when teenage Kate Beckett starts at a new school and meets Richard Rodgers. Can she learn to love his quirks? Can he handle her baggage? Songfic for "Just Breathe" by Pearl Jam.

After trying to comfort his daughter Castle realised something... post headhunters

She turns on her monitor, and that's when she notices it. It's very well hidden, and it's an elephant, hiding between her other elephants. It's from Castle. Caskett. One-shot.

Castle confronts Beckett about what he heard her say in the interrogation room

The reaction to the sonic boom of silence in the days after 47 seconds. How the family reacts to the very obvious change in Castle and Beckett's relationship. One family member will get the cold shoulder for awhile. Lightness as heat rises from the ashes

If only had Kate Beckett known about the consequences of a 2 am phone call, she would've never answered. Still, she did. Caskett.

Oneshot. Caskett. Rick tries to impress Kate with a card trick. But does he have something else up his sleeve besides a simple sleight of hand?

Spoiler alert. This story is about what I hope will happen in Headhunters after seeing the promo and listening to the rumors.

"He knows, Lanie. He is never gonna forgive me." Castle has found out by accident and Kate isn't sure if she can repair what her lie has destroyed. COMPLETE

Safety was the first thing on his mind for Kate. Or was it? Based on photos from 4x23 and Aussiello's spoilers. Put them together and you have an M rated fic.

He doesn't know what to do with all the left over emotion. Anger and relief. Sheer joy and terrible, aching fear. Season Three AU. Complete.

Kate's POV about the time of "47 Seconds" and "The Limey"; Rated T for language.

Sometimes things happen that make you view your choices in an entirely different light. And if you're lucky and brave, you'll get the chance to right some of your wrongs. Season 4. Deals with the revelation of Beckett's secret. Chapter 10 now posted.

A night.. secrets come out, words spill out.. it's time for Kate to hear it. One-shot. Complete.

He lied to keep her safe, from the people who killed her mother and tried to kill her. She lied to save him from her and her brokenness, but now they need each other, because they cant fight the dragon alone and win but together they cant lose...

The doors closed them in. Together...Alone. Alone in a twenty-five square foot box. And she was looking at him with those eyes. Dark, hooded...hungry. M for a reason. ONE-SHOT

SEQUEL TO "ALONE WITH YOU" RYAN-BOSTON PD SPIN OFF "For the first time since he'd left his mother's apartment in south Brooklyn to go to the police academy, Kevin Ryan had a place that he could call home."

I am looking for a fic and i need some of your help

Exes, LDRs, and Subtlety: Richard Castle could learn a little bit about all three. Late season 4. Newly established relationship between Castle and Beckett.

This is my very hurt/comfort-y take on how events in and around Headhunters could have gone, had things got a little more out of hand for Castle when he was chasing down suspects with Ethan Slaughter.

Don't you know Kate? Death can't stop true love, it can only delay it for awhile. Castle and Beckett meet in the afterlife.

End of Cops and Robbers. Martha and Alexis wonder how Beckett knew that the Morse code was from Castle

SPOILER STATUS FOR 'THE LIMEY' and 'HEADHUNTER' Read please! Even though everyone is making one of these, level with me : lol
