I felt a little cheated when Lanie finding out about Kate and Castle happened off-camera. So, I decided to write this little fic. This is how the conversation goes down in my own imagination. A S5 one-shot. Takes place prior to Probable Cause. I hope you enjoy it! Disclaimer: The characters and settings are not mine, they belong to the brilliantly talented Andrew W. Marlowe and Co.

"Kate?" His voice, pitiful and unsure, was soft and scared. Her head cocked to the side and she raised her hand, fluttering a small-finger wave. "Wait! You're not Kate!" "Ba-bye."

Not one of my best stories, but I had to get it out there. I promise to update Saving KidCastle soon for those who are reading it. This is for TheDevilChild. (Not the best title; I know.) Set in this season's two-parter.AU

Tradução. Alexis tem uma quedinha pelo Ryan, e para afastá-la gentilmente, Ryan pede a Esposito para fazer uma pequena "atuação" com ele. Se ele só soubesse onde isso o levaria. Ryan/Esposito. Slash

Kate's thoughts surrounding the shooting and her return to work.

She sometimes forgot that Esposito was a soldier. A personal headcanon of mine.

A man from Kate's past makes an unwelcome appearance at the Haunt and forces Rick to make a choice that stuns everyone. Kate and Alexis get caught in the middle of the trouble and form an alliance to sort out the mess and guard the homestead. Emotions come alive and lives are changed with the aftermath. This is Castle and Beckett romance with a Wild West flare. Enjoy!

Follow up to my story "What Happens in Vegas Does Not Stay in Vegas" After what these two pulled in Vegas, they have to return home and face their friends and co workers. Not to mention a very strange new case. And exactly who is Alexander Richardson and what is his connection to Kate?

Rampant speculation for the upcoming two-parter. "She wakes two hours later, the loss of his bulk and the ease with which she can take breath hitting her harder than any punch to the gut could." *Nominated for the the 12th Precinct's Fan Awards: Best Episode-Specific Fic*

Once in life, even Kate Beckett can have fun

All she leaves is a note. :: For Morgan.

Beckett and Castle have a talk. Then Beckett takes a sudden vacation

The thumping pulse of the music vibrates through her body. Her bones sing with it, a high pitched resonation that rings in her ears and echoes inside her chest. She lets her spine sway and her hips roll, losing herself in the movement, the freedom that comes when she shuts off her brain and just feels. **An ode of sorts to 5x12* One shot. Complete.

There's so much of Beckett that Castle doesn't know. She's not good at sharing her past and Castle knows now not to push (too much). But every so often a little bit of her history will be revealed and shared between them. As they learn and share more, their relationship will change. Set sometime in late Season 5 or perhaps Season 6.

Castle is away on a book tour leaving Beckett at home and alone. Beckett misses him terribly until she stumbles across something late one night.

"He has always thought that it was the man's job to cherish a woman in bed. Make her feel beautiful, extraordinary. He ever knew he could feel the same way, would want to feel the same way."

What happened during Kate's recovery at her dad's cabin? My AU version of that summer. Jim Beckett makes an appearance, cause I love him!

Concludes the "Four Winds" series. "The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him." (Revelation 12:9 - NIV)

"She can't help it, the love pours through her, and she is feeling the need to finally tell him, to take that step, to climb the messy pieces of her wall that still remain" Short one-shot

He found himself standing on the stage in his favorite suit and her favorite shirt— the purple one, having bids thrown out at a pace slightly faster than he had expected and she was nowhere to be seen. One-shot. Complete.

A super fluffy ficlet. Imagining our favorite partners trying to be normal people and visiting a flea market.

Just a short scene of suspense and humor. Castle and Beckett are trapped in a warehouse, hiding from bad guys.

Kate comes home late from work and puts her and Rick's son to bed.

contains possible SPOILERS for February 4th's 'Recoil' (though I've only seen the promo that aired after the episode): Beckett and Castle have blinders on, but there's a better way out.
