Again, sorry for not updating for a while. Exams suck.
Anyway, it's finally our Christmas break, and yeah, I shall update more since there are no more annoying exams in the way.
This is kind of short, but enjoy anyway.
3x09 "Close Encounters Of The Murderous Kind"
A tense silence was engulfing Beckett's car as it sat there, in the middle of the road, still and unmoving. Inside the car was Beckett herself, asleep on Castle's shoulder.
They both stirred as they remembered what had happened earlier. The bright light, the agents, the interrogation, the injectors… it all seemed distant to them, but it was a very real encounter neither would forget.
Beckett opened her eyes and almost jumped in shock when she realized where she was. She saw Castle's lap, afraid to look up. She weighed her options. She could look down, and wait for Castle to wake up. Look up, and risk being pulled in. She chose to take the risk and looked up.
When her green eyes met his blue ones, she regretted it immediately. He looked just as afraid to look at her as she was for him, but it was too late. They both couldn't move. They were frozen, neither wanting to cross the invisible line, but at the same time, waiting for the other to do so.
Finally, Castle closed the gap between them and pulled her in for a searing kiss.
No words were spoken; no sounds made. Just the two of them, kissing, moving, being. They stayed like that for a while, until they both realized that it was time for them to go.
On the ride back to the precinct, awkward silence was all they heard, ringing in their ears. They were both flustered by that kiss, and inwardly promised to never speak of that again.
That kiss wasn't just a kiss. It was a step; a step closer to that invisible line that is all that separates them. A line which, they will soon find out, does not exist. The line that they themselves created, yet are scared stiff to cross. But both knew that there was still hope for them.
There was still hope, despite the obstacles in their way. Despite all the interruptions, all the bad choices, all the near misses.
Despite their own doubts, their denials, their walls, there was still hope.
Despite everything, there was still hope.
