WOOOAAH! I have been showered with favorites, follows, and reviews over the past day! Thank you!

It's funny, I think you guys are seriously inside my head. From reading all of the reviews, it's obvious that you pick up on every little detail and curveball that I have put in this story. You guys are seriously the best.

Disclaimer: The characters aren't mine, yada yada yada...

Okay, here it is, the much anticipated fifth and final chapter!

"What?!" Castle asked in an exasperated tone. "Quitting? Kate, your job is everything to you! You love being a detective! Hell, you're the best in the NYPD! How could you quit?"

Rick babbled on, and Kate tried to stop him and get his attention. "Rick! Richard! Castle!" it was no use. She couldn't stop his rambling. "RICHARD CASTLE!" she yelled.

He instantly silenced when he heard her yell. "Kate, I just don't get it. Why?" he said softly.

Kate reached in her pocket and pulled out the object she put there earlier. "I'm quitting because of this," she said, showing it to him.

His jaw dropped when he saw it. He knew exactly what it was. "Do you mean to tell me-" he started.

"Yes," she cut him off. "Yes, Castle. I'm pregnant."

He threw the pregnancy test down on the table and stood up. He threw his arms around her and picked her up. She wrapped her legs around his waist and laughed at him as he yelled, "You're pregnant! You're pregnant! Oh my God, Kate! This is incredible!"

She saw the tears run down his cheeks and tears instantly welled up in hers, too. "Rick, put me down! Yes, I'm pregnant! Yes, I'm having a baby! Castle! Put me down!"

Finally, he put her down, asking, "When did you find out?"

"I took the test a week ago because I missed my period and I remembered that we've mostly gone unprotected lately. I was curious, so I took the test. I never thought that it would be positive. I figured that I'd tell you at dinner on Sunday, but I realized that now would be the best time. I'm sorry I didn't get you anything else. I was going to." Kate explained.

"No," Rick jumped in quickly. "This is the best gift that anyone's ever given me. Knowing that you're going to have our baby is the best news ever."

Kate smiled wide. "You're the only person that I want to have a baby with, Rick. I'm so happy and excited!"

"How far along are you?" he asked.

"Six weeks," she replied with a smile.

"Wow! It doesn't look like your stomach has grown."

"It actually has, only very slightly. Not enough for it to be noticeable. The doctor said that we'll start to notice in a few weeks."

"God, Kate, I can't believe it!" he exclaimed. "But, why are you quitting your job? Can't you just be on desk duty and then take maternity leave?"

"That's what I said, and I begged Gates to let me stay, but she made a valid point which helped me make my decision. She told me that I need to relax and enjoy the time off. I need to handle my pregnancy like a good mother, and my job is not good for keeping myself and the baby safe. She told me that if it was really necessary, I could always return in the future. I mean, she obviously wasn't happy about losing her best detective," she giggled, "but she wants this for me. For us."

Rick smiled. "I still can't believe you hid it from me!"

"I only officially found out yesterday! You know the doctor's appointment I had? I went to our baby doctor, and she confirmed the pregnancy. You don't even realize how hard it was to keep this from you for one day! I've had to lie to you a few times today to hide it!" Kate explained.

"Really?" Castle asked, astonished. "Like what?"

"Well, did you notice that I didn't drink any of my wine during dinner? And when I went upstairs to "go grab my phone", I took my wine glass with me? When I came back, the wine was basically gone, because I poured it out to make it look like I drank it! And I saw the confused look you gave me when you asked if I wanted more and I said no. Can't have alcohol when you're knocked up, Castle. Oh, and the freaking story about getting kicked in the back? I'm still so shocked that you actually believed that! That suspect would have to have been pretty damn flexible to kick me in the back when he's handcuffed and I'm walking behind him! I can't even do that! I was actually having back pains, but it's just because I'm pregnant! God, you are so gullible sometimes!"

Castle sat there, completely silent, his mouth wide open. Finally he managed to say, "But... How...?"

Kate laughed at his confusion. "Never mind the lies, Castle. You know the whole truth now. Baby, remember?" Castle's face immediately lit up as the word came out of his wife's mouth. "I just... I can't believe it, Kate. You're- we're having a baby!"

"I know, isn't it crazy?!"

Castle looked at his wife lovingly. "What?" she questioned.

"Kate, you're going to be a great mother. Our kid is going to be so incredible. He or she will have your intelligence and my ruggedly handsome good looks!"

Kate scoffed at him. "And what happens if they get my looks?"

"Well, then they'll be breathtakingly beautiful." Rick replied. Kate blushed and smiled big.

"As long as you don't feed our kid s'morelets, I'll be okay."

"Oh please, Kate. You love s'morelets," Rick replied.

"No one likes s'morelets, Rick."

"Someday you'll change your mind."

"Don't think so. Anyway, I'm kind of tired. I know it's only 8:30, but do you think we could go to bed now? I do still have to go to work for another week before I'm officially done."

"Anything for you, my baby mama," Rick responded.

"Oh God, here we go with the preggo jokes," Kate said.

Later, in bed, Rick was stroking Kate's stomach, trying to help her fall asleep. Kate was thinking about all of the things they could do in their new life together, now that she was just about done with the NYPD. Make no mistake; she was planning on going back. Maybe when their kid turned one. She was already upset about the fact that she had to quit being a detective, but she also knew that it was good for her. She would finally be able to live without all of the stress from work and do things that she's always wanted to. Maybe they could go on a long vacation, live in the Hamptons, or do something as simple as have family dinners with her dad, Martha, and Alexis once a week. She would have all holidays off now and they could live life like any other family.

"Kate?" Rick whispered, noticing that she'd gone on her own train of thought.

"Yeah?"

"What are you thinking about?" he asked.

"Oh, a lot. Mostly about the new life we're going to live. Are you sure you're not upset that I'm quitting?" she asked, turning her head to look at him.

"Kate, all I want is for you to be happy. I will always love you and support you in all of your decisions."

Kate swallowed hard before saying, "Then in that case, is this the right time to tell you that I kind of forgot about our anniversary until a few hours ago?" Kate asked, biting her lip.

"What? Seriously?" Rick asked, shocked.

"Yeah. I have been so busy with work in the last few months that I just didn't realize how fast the time has gone by. When Lanie called me earlier, I noticed the date on my phone and freaked out. I'm sorry. I was going to get you something and make a big deal out of our anniversary. I honestly feel like a horrible wife and I-"

"Kate. Stop blaming yourself. You've been under a lot of stress lately, I get it. It's okay. I don't love you any less. If possible, I actually love you more. The fact that you admitted to me that you forgot is the best thing you could've done. It's okay, Kate, really. I'm not mad."

Kate looked into her husband's ocean blue eyes and smiled. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

She leaned in and kissed him gently. He deepened the kiss and rolled over so that he was on top of her, keeping himself off of her body by holding himself up with his hands. He broke off from the kiss and slid her shirt off. He leaned over and attacked her neck with kisses and kissed all the way down her body to the line of her shorts. "Off, now," he commanded. "Yours too," she replied. They helped each other shed their clothing until their naked bodies were against each other. Even though they were both tired, the love making continued for half of the night.

"It's like he's trying to make a twin," Kate thought to herself.

Yes? No? Maybe so? Did it turn out like you thought it would? Let me know in the reviews! ALSO! I want to write more Castle stories! I'll basically do anything, M-rated and all.(; Give me some ideas?

Again, thank you guys sooo much for the love you have shown for this story! I love you all! Adios amigos!
