The next morning they are cuddled up, she was rested on his chest with her arm wrapped around his waist, he twisted a lock of her hair, he feels his hand in someone's hair it's silky and smooth and feels the warmth of them on his chest, she slowly stirs too, she groans and digs her head into his chest more, Castle kissed the top of her head, her eyes opened.

"Castle?","yes?","what happens now, are you going to leave"," I'm not going to leave, I actually want a committed relationship with you","for the first time I want a committed relationship, one were I'm not having to make up excuses when they want to see me", "me too"," I have something to admit Castle","what?","this is the first time, I've ever woke up with someone","really?","I don't know what it is but I like my space when I sleep", "so you don't treat them as a teddy bear", they both laughed at his joke.

"I'm sorry, if you want me to move I can", "no I like this side of you"

They spend the rest of morning with her cuddled on his chest her fingers making circles on his chest.
