Chapter 39

Slowly Richard Castle opens his eyes to see his wife Kate Beckett. He didn't wish to say a word to her for now until he was ready to say something.

"Rick, I am very sorry to have this happened to you in the first place. It's all my fault that you had to resort to this type of action with you killing the murderer and yourself getting shot in the process?" she cried out with her response.

"Please don't tell me you're not sorry for anything Beckett?" he croaked out with his response.

She moved in closer to his hospital bed. "What are you talking about Rick?" she had no idea what he had been talking about in the first place.

Crying out with his response. "Please leave here Beckett and don't come back until I am ready to give you the bad news?" he will say with a nurse coming in to tell her to leave with his vitals skyrocketing.

"Fine, I will leave for now nurse." she makes mention to her and to Castle asking something that was hard for her to be leaving.
