HAII GUYS! First of all, I am so incredibly sorry for being late! (And since it's summer here in my country, I'll have more time to write!)To make up, I bring you two one-shots I hope you like them!
2x06 "Vampire Weekend"
"You smell like cherries."
Kate almost gasped at this. She knew that Rick was hot for her, but she didn't really mind. The fact that he noticed her scent did shock her, though. She turned her head to tell him off for that (even though she sort of liked it), but before she even uttered a word, she saw his face.
And she fell silent.
Her emerald eyes darted to his bright blue ones, then to his lips. Castle, seeing that, decided not to waste the opportunity.
He placed his hand on her cheek and kissed her.
Kate was about to pull away and slap him for kissing her in the precinct, and she raised her hand to do it, but put it back down. She remembered all the reasons she put up with him, all the reasons he was still there, and all the reasons she liked his being there, and realized that she didn't care that they were in the precinct at all.
The world flashed by the two. She saw, out of the corner of her eye, Ryan and Esposito gawking at them. In fact, she though she saw a whole group of detectives bunched around the doorway, just watching them. But that just stayed there, locked in a passionate embrace.
And Kate realized that it didn't matter anymore. As long as they were there, together, the world didn't matter.
But her vision ended in a split second as she opened her eyes. She pulled away from him, looking around, sighing in relief as she saw the bustling bullpen.
Rick looked at her apologetically. "Kate, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." He stood up to face her, but before he could say another word, she took off, saying, "Yeah, you shouldn't have."
He watched as she perused the murder board with her fellow detectives. All through the rest of the day, she seemed to act normal towards him, so all he could do was sigh in relief that she hadn't ignored him completely.
At the end of the day, before Rick went off to go home, Kate called him, saying, "Hey, Castle, you need a lift?" Rick hesitated before agreeing, but did anyway. "Okay, your apartment is at the other side of town, so that means you want to talk. What's up?" he said as he entered the passenger side of her car.
Kate started the car and said, "Listen, Castle, about what happened earlier, I'm sorry for reacting the way I did. I was shocked and didn't know what to do."
"Hey, you know, that's okay. No harm done."
"And…" Kate continued as they drove out of the parking lot, "as I said earlier, you shouldn't have done that, but despite that, I… I kind of liked it."
Castle sat there in silence, processing what she had just said. After all, it isn't everyday that Kate Beckett would say something like that. So out of sheer happiness, he did something he'd never have done had he been in his right mind.
He kissed her again.
And he liked it, too.
Again, sorry for posting late, but I'll update more since it is the summer. :))
TGA, out.
