After Castle and Beckett have been together a while, kinky smut in the Hamptons ensues. Please be warned - very mature content.

When Kate tries to help Alexis, Rick winds up helping her-and they all wind up helping eachother with lots of laughs, tears, and trials along the way. Funny how sometimes you don't realize you need help until you get it.

A one shot, Rick paints a portrait of Kate on their last night in the Hampton's. Takes place right after 5x04. I thought we could all use a little swooning before the events of 5x05 take place. Feedback is both desired and appreciated. Disclaimer: I do not own these characters, they belong to the great Andrew Marlowe.

AU from Undead Again. In which the zombie case really *is* Castle's last case, and Beckett has to try and deal with the prospect of never seeing Castle again. COMPLETE.

Vague spoilers for 5x05. Inspired by Sneak Peek 2. "Castle pushes the small gift bag towards her across the desk, and she frowns, staring at the offering while fighting a nascent smile." COMPLETE

An evening of boredom at the precinct makes Javi becoming nostalgic. Yes, he misses her. One Shot, Esplanie. Javier's POV in the end. Enjoy!

ONE SHOT possible final scene from 5x05 Probable Cause. Possible spoilers if you are spoiler free! In this episode Castle is a suspect in the murder of an ex. Beckett doesn't believe him capable of murder, but is left with the niggling question of whether or not he was unfaithful to her. I think. Maybe. Let's go with that...

A story to tide us over until Monday night's episode 5X05 airs, and we can all 'officially' feel better again. Slight spoilers from promo and sneak peaks for 5X05.

A look at some moments between Castle and Beckett during and after the events of 'Knockdown'.

Sometimes you don't know how much you need someone until you think you've lost them.

Alexis is surprised by Kate and they finally discuss their feelings.

Kate knew what she wanted: him. Now Kate Beckett is jobless but very much in love. This is the summer that could change everybody's lives forever.

SPOILERS. Pre-5x05 story based on the Promo. "There's such a look of absolute relief on his face when he answers the door to her that Kate allows him to draw her inside by the elbow and enfold her in an all-encompassing hug. But her body is stiff inside his embrace, rigid, and he pulls back after just a few seconds to look at her..." COMPLETE

"No, Beckett. I'm tired of trying to convince you that I love you. I'm tired of having to do that. You should already know and if you don't already…I don't think we should even continue." Minor-spoilers for Monday's episode. R&R

Summary: Loosely based on I Almost Do By Taylor Swift. She knew. She knew all along. Kate Beckett knew that Richard Castle loved her and she never told him. Now he knows. Somewhere after 47 seconds. Sort of AU? I don't really know, 1st Fanficton attempt. Be easy on me?

Continuation of the end scene in Kate and Castle's Hampton Escape. SERIOUSLY M FOR A REASON! MATURE READERS ONLY!

*SPOILER* One shot loosely based on a slight spoiler for an upcoming episode of Season 5. If you avoid spoilers please do not read this until probably late January 2013.

He had been wondering about this for quite some time now...

A family dinner, the creation of a new holiday,some mischeif and a few nudges in the right direction could lead Castle and Beckett where they need to be. Sequel to 'Someone To Tell My Troubles To'. Family/Romance/Humor Cover Art by Andy (vwlvbugg).

25-year-old Tessa Horton is murdered, and there's reason to believe that Castle's the killer! Castle tries to prove his innocence, while the detectives nearly seem to be trying to prove his guilt. It's becoming a cliché, I know, but I had to. Rated T really just because of the murder.

AN ONGOING COLLECTION OF DRABBLES. Once upon a time, while everyone was betting on one boy and one girl, there was another boy and another girl in the background. This is their story.

"If he wasn't allowed to tell her how much he loved her, well, at least, he could still physically show her and if she only allowed him to that at the moment, he wouldn't complain." Esplanie all the way, One shot, post 5X02.

She couldn't sleep. No way. Not when everything in her own apartment haunted her from the knick-knack, he'd asked her about last week, to his toothbrush sitting unassumingly next to hers. So she'd come back here and was now just watching him in the dark hallway of holding fighting back tears.

She was the guardian of the dead, and she never once took that placement as ominous or forbidding. It was a job worth doing, and she had drawn a sense of pride in it.

Possible scenario for Probable Cause. Started as an inteorragation scene but has morphed into more. Includes possible spoilers for 5x05. "Beckett, you know me." "Do I?" Is this about murder or trust. Play on words from chapter to chapter, kudos to anyone who can figure it out at the end. Chapter 3 up.
