N/A: Before someone says it's not possible, it's OOC and all that shit, I have to mention this one is a little bit AU and OOC indeed. And I'm not saying it'll make lots of sense, so if you don't like, just skip it; this is the one out of line and I'll post the next chapter soon, so it's not an endless waiting. The chapter's song is 'What If The Storm Ends?' by Snow Patrol. That's it; I hope you enjoy.
Yellow
Now it's found us, like I have found you
Yellow is the color of Gina's hair. Yellow is the freaking color of his ex-wife's hair. She can't express in words how much she hates yellow as Gina sits next to him at their table. She's talking to him about his next book. Nikki Heat's book. A book that's mostly based on her and her job. And the freaking woman can't even look at her face! Gina just ignores her as she's just a harmless fly. Oh, she would show that snob some good manners. Oh, she would. She was having a delicious breakfast with Rick in a bakery near her apartment, talking about nothing and making fun of each other; feeding each other, for heaven's sake. And then, somehow, that unscrupulous bitch arrives and thinks she's the owner of the freaking place. Oh, she would show Gina not to mess with Katherine Beckett. Kate would show her that Castle was hers and no one else's.
Castle sees her expression and he's not happy at all. He can tell she's jealous, but he doesn't like what he sees underneath. She's showing a side he never saw. A possessive side she never showed before. Not even when cases were taken off of her hands. No, he never saw it, but he could see how dangerous it was. He tries to think of a way to get them both out of the place and while during it, he almost misses Gina's try to kiss him. He doesn't even want to look to his girlfriend's face. But as fast as Gina was in her attempt, Kate is even faster grabbing Gina by her blonde and well-cared hair. Kate's really kicking her ass, but then he sees a painful look in her face. A look that's not coincident with the whole situation. Gina smiles, however Kate is falling. She was shot in the chest. He runs to her side, but it's too late. She's dead.
He wakes up screaming her name. His heart is racing. He tries to take a deep breath, but he can't. He needs to know if she's alright. He wants to hear her voice saying that everything is just fine, but he can't call her in the middle of the night. He can't call her at all. They fought only a day ago and she didn't seem to forgive him yet. She said she would call, but she didn't call until now. He wanted so desperately to hear her voice.
She wakes up screaming his name. Her heart is racing like never before. Gina killed her. In her nightmare, Gina killed her. And she didn't even have time to say something to Castle. She's dead. She caresses the scar on her chest and cries. Her cellphone rings, but she doesn't answer. She can't answer. Not like this. Once more, her phone rings. She tries to calm down. She takes a deep breath and answers her phone at the last ring. "What?" Kate screams. Then she hears his voice. It's all that takes to calm her down. It's all that takes to make her stop crying. "Castle," she whispers, "I need you here." He's all she needs to scare her nightmares away.
