Beautiful Moments between Kate and Rick. Post Always.

Kate didn't quite know why she enjoyed Christmas. She hadn't enjoyed Christmas since her mother died when she was just nineteen.

*AU* Kate goes to the Hamptons with Rick for four days. She returns to the city for work, while he stays back to finish his book. It's Fall now, & she hasn't heard from him in two months. Now, she has to deal with the consequences of their trip alone.

Sometimes new technology can come in very handy, especially when you are not in the same city for your first year anniversary.

Series of One-Shots. Castle asks for Beckett's hand in marriage, which has some hilarious results.

'Secret Santa' post-ep oneshot. Castle's eyes darkened and he leaned back into her, softly whispering in her ear, "I do have one present for you." "Well that was on my Christmas list" she purred in his ear.

Alexis is stunned that Kate wants her to be her maid of honor

This is set when Kate is 18 and just discovering Nebula-9 at Stanford and Rick is a newly single dad of a three year old. They're both apprehensive, insecure and worried, and this story shows the parallels in their very different experiences.

Christmas One-Shot. Beckett really can't stay, but Castle knows it's cold outside. Rated T for innuendo.

Fill for a kink meme (or 2). Read authors note. Takes place in early September. Castle decides he can't go a third night away from Beckett and gets proactive. M for a reason.

"Her calves burn. Her wrists ache. She can't feel her shoulders. It's starting to hurt to breathe. And still she won't open her eyes." :: Written for the kink meme over at livejournal. Trigger warning.

Fourth in Braden Series. It's Christmas with the Castle Clan! Rated K. *Updated 12/09/2012* Final chapter is now up!

One night Castle and Beckett go to Castle's place and waiting for them is a surprise. A woman from Castle's past is there and she gives him some life changing news, and then that night she is murdered. Caskett

"He couldn't take his eyes off of her. She was always beautiful. But tonight…tonight she was glowing." Oneshot.

After she first meets Castle, she writes her first poem. As she spends more time with him, her obsession with poetry grows, until she finds she can't live without it. (Note: This has been discontinued for the meantime. I apologize. There wasn't enough inspiration for me to keep going. I'm leaving up just in case I return to it. I apologize.)

Hardened criminals didn't scare her as much as Alexis.

"...it's silly, it's just a ring, it's not her but..." "It's not silly. It's the piece of your mom that you carry with you everyday... and to suddenly have that ripped away from you... I can only imagine how horrible that must have been..." Rick cupped her face, wiping tears away. "It's important." Caskett fluff, no spoilers.

What happens after the Final Frontier episode finishes in Rick's bedroom. Short one off story just for a laugh.

Richard Castle tem sua vida mudada quando conhece uma certa detetive da Divisão de Homicídios de Nova York. AU 4ª Temporada. Spoiler para quem ainda não viu a season 4.

"She wouldn't have a good enough excuse if she didn't talk to him today." One shot, complete.

Because how could you NOT want to write after reading spoilers for 5x10. Based on spoilers for 5x10: Meredith AND Kate staying at the loft... let the hilarity ensue. **In-Progress** Chapter 11 coming soon!

"She told him to go." Written as a fill over at the kinkofthecastle meme on livejournal so... yeah.
