It was just fatigue, the day catching up to her. It had nothing to do with the knowledge that his phone could ring in fifteen minutes and he would be on his way to parts unknown just a little while after that. - Castle and Beckett have a complicated past, but after two years, things may just be getting a little more simple. Meeting AU/Job AU.

14 year old Samantha Peterson is the daughter of a wealthy businessman and has strained family life and a history of acting out because of a great loss when she was 9. Will Castle and Beckett warm the frozen heart of this troubled teen, or will she continue on the path of towards delinquency?

"She sinks into him without a word, pressing her lips to his shirt, relishing in the strong, steady thud of his heart under her mouth. Does giving her husband a hug count as taking a time out from the time out?" - Beckett goes to her husband after the press finds out about Castle's visit to Lindsey Trent's office. Post 8x07, written pre-8x08.

... must come to an end. But maybe not entirely. A little ways down the road post season 8 oneshot.

(AU Castle Meeting/World) Kate saves a young Alexis

"Life's a long and winding ride, better have the right one by your side, and happiness don't drag its feet, time moves faster than you think" Warning: Brief mention of character death in final chapter.

Happy Fourth of July, America. An AU season 2 hiatus Castle fic. Sort of makes a series out of unrelated "Independence" and "Liberty." Thanks to Airbefore and Caffinate-me for the beta.

'Fireworks spooked her, they had for years prior and likely would for years to come, and it was an occasional hazard she had learned to live with, despite sometimes dreading the welcoming of a new year, the arrival of summer.' A future fic for the Fourth of July.

One shot. If Johanna died in season 3. "Back in her apartment, he sees everything is the same as it was two weeks ago. Same mess. Same dishes. Same clothes he peeled her out of laying across the chair."

'Castle's chest tightens. This is her team, their team. She's family to them, so important that they're losing sleep and working themselves into the ground. He wonders how much of it is a pure desire to get justice for Beckett, and how much is a distraction.' AU after s2 finale.

Yet another post-"The Limey" tale, a bit of silliness prompted by inkycoffee. "Kate takes Colin out for dinner after the case and they run into Castle and Jacinda. Bonus points if Jacinda and Colin end up together (they're both on the way to the airport, anyway)." Not canon compliant.

Inspired by the prompt: 'Castle is looking for Beckett and the boys tell him she's in the gym, but he finds her crying in the shower.' Set post 4x09, Kill Shot.

It'd been one of the more bizarre phone calls she'd ever received... AU post-ep for episode 4x20, 'The Limey.'

Set during 4x01: Rise. Castle strode past the diner's long bank of windows as quickly as his legs would take him. A bead of sweat trickled down the middle of his back despite the cool of the evening. He was desperate to get inside. Kate's father had called him not a half hour ago and he couldn't get there fast enough.

Post-ep AU for The Limey, written for a prompt from Lou @inkycoffee on Twitter. I hope i did the prompt justice. The actual prompt is at the end, because reasons.

A week after she is shot at Captain Montgomery's funeral, Kate calls Rick and he comes out to her father's cabin where she is recovering. Slight spoilers for Knockout/Rise. AU.

Jim Beckett reflects on his new granddaughter. My explanation of Lily Castle's name. And because there can never be enough Jim Beckett. Disclaimer: I don't own Castle, I just wish I did.

Following the interview Castle had with People Magazine, arrangements were made for them to interview the team at the 12th. What will they say?

She must be more tired than she'd thought because at that moment, more than anything, Kate wanted a hug. A Castle hug. A birthday present for EvaKAlways. Possible spoilers for any and all episodes. Set during the season 2 two-parter.

It feels like they might be crossing that line they've been toeing for years. That line between friends and something more. An early relationship AU. COMPLETE

The s'morelet will no longer be the only strange food in the Caskett household. And Castle is happy to help his son Reece create his perfect sandwich.
