"Oh believe me, I already know." Rick said with a chuckle.
"And what exactly is that suppose to mean?" Kate raised her eyebrows at him, giving him a stern look.
Rick rolled his eyes, "I think you know exactly what I'm talking about." 'Of course she knows what I'm talking about, how could she not? She's just playing dumb.' He thought to himself, not being affected by her deadly glare.
"No please, refresh my memory?" Her voice sounding a hint insulted, she can't believe he's going to call her out like that.
Rick's done being a gentlemen, she needs to face the cold hard facts, whether she likes it or not. "Oh I don't know, let me think back…" He stared out into space dramatically as if he was actually thinking, with a finger taping on his chin. "Serena, Sophia? Ring any bells? His eyes on her now, his eye brows lifted up waiting to see what she would say. Although he already knew the truth.
"Oh please! Are you trying to tell me that you think I was jealous of them? Really Rick!" She said rolling her eyes, trying to hide the fact that what he was saying was one hundred percent correct.
Castle let out a mocking laugh. "I don't think! I know!" His eyes dark on hers.
Kate shuttered under his vision, couldn't take his intense stare down any longer. She didn't appreciate that he was being so full of himself at the moment either, sure she was jealous, but does he have to rub it in her face?
"Why would I be jealous of them Castle?" She tried to sound sure of herself, but he kept on coming back with more harsh truths.
"That's a good question Kate." He stepped closer to her, invading all personal space. "Why would you be jealous?" His eyes were questioning her, burning into her heart. She couldn't think clearly or come up with anything clever enough to back herself up anymore, not when he was in such close proximity.
"I…a-am… I…no-" She couldn't meet her tongue to hit her teeth correctly to speak properly.
"Humph, that's what I thought." He shook his head with a laugh, he was amused by her being a coward. This drove Kate over the edge, it's one thing to point out the fact that she gets jealous too, but now he's acting like he's any better? Who does this guy think he is?
"What about you Rick?" her voice raw with emotion. "Last time I checked you aren't exactly modest yourself." She shot at him hoping he would not know what to say to that.
"Kate, you were basically throwing yourself at him!" Rick's jealousy rising once again.
Kate was beyond herself, what is he babbling about 'throwing myself at him?' I was talking to the guy, yeah maybe I said yes to going to get a drink with him but throwing myself at him? He really is over reacting.
"Throwing myself at him? Castle I said yes to go get a drink with him? I don't think that goes on the record of 'throwing myself at him.'" She said with quotations, she can't believe how over dramatic he was being, actually scratch that, she had met his mother.
"You were giggling at him Beckett! GIGGLING!" He didn't care if he sounded ridiculous, he was aggravated.
"So what? Sue me for thinking the guy was charming?" She said her mouth a gap, her arms in a shrug. Not knowing why he was freaking out so much about this, it's not like he had anything to worry about.
Rick nearly gagged at that, how can she be so oblivious to how much of a D-bag Simmons was?
"Oh so I'm not charming enough for you, is that what it is?"
Kate was shocked at what he was saying. what the hell is he talking about. Her eye brows scrunched together, furrowing in complete confusion.
"Charming enough?" She nearly whispered to herself, disarray running high in her brain, not able to put the pieces together.
"Castle, what the hell are you talking about?" She decided it would just be easier asking him, instead of trying to figure it out herself.
"Clearly I'm not good enough for you to date, But once 'Mr. British pretty boy' waltzes on in here he get to take the golden prize!" He didn't care if he just admitted the fact that 'yes he is intimidated' by Hunt, he can't help it. His emotions have been running high lately and it doesn't help that she is flirting with another man right in front of him.
Kate was speechless, that's what this has been about the whole time? He thinks that I don't want to date him because he isn't good enough for me? He thinks I don't want to date him in general! God, what is wrong with him! Can't he see that it's obviously the other way around? He is more than good enough for me, he is too good for me.
"Rick how can you say that? How can you actually think that I would rather date him then you? How can you honestly believe that you aren't good enough for me?" Her mind was running a mile a minute, she was so disgusted in herself for making him doubt himself so much.
Rick felt embarrassed and flustered, at that moment he just wanted to run away. He didn't like the fact that Beckett could make him so emotional. He's a man for Christ sakes, he shouldn't want to cry right now because of all the frustration piercing threw him. He couldn't help it though, his eyes swelled just a tad, leaving the rims them to become red. He looked to his left, trying to gather up his feelings. Plus he couldn't face her when he was trying to hide that part of him almost crying.
Kate's heart broke seeing him look so flustered and angry. She could see him trying to fight back his eyes from watering. Leaving them to look agitated, red rims against his blue orbs. She decided she should take the lead on this conversation, not make him say anymore until she got her feelings out; she owed him that much.
"Rick I know that I may be hard to read at times but." She took a deep breath trying to calm her out of control nerves. She went against her nerves for once, and just jumped on what her heart was telling her to do. "but there is one thing you should already know." She stepped closer to him grasping on to the labels of his jacket, with a nervous smile breaking on her face. "The only person I want to be reading my pages… is you. " She looked up at him, her hands still with a firm hold on his labels.
His eyes shot straight to her on that last line. Did she just… she did. He stared at her, trying to fight back the goofy smile that was bound to show on his lips.
"You mean that?" He whispered, but so much hope in his voice.
"Always" She said, not knowing whether she should kiss him or not. Yes she was jumping the line here, but she didn't know what he was feeling, so she let him ride out with it, putting the ball in his court now.
Rick stared at her in awe, this women really knew how to take his breath away. He couldn't stand the short distance between them any longer, too much anticipation building up inside him, he put his arms around her waist, pulling her in even closer than they already were. He asked permission with his eyes whether he was aloud to move in with his lips now. Her eyes told him yes. He smiled and then leaned in slow but not too slow, he wanted to make sure this was just right.
Kate had other plans in mind, because she ended up pulling his labels to bring him forward to her, leaving his lips to fall onto hers. Though it wasn't slow and measured out correctly, it was still perfect, it was more than perfect it was…it was… extraordinary.
