''Didn't see you much today, what happend?'' Lanie and Kate were in their room, getting ready for dinner.

''Since I don't have writer boy following me everywhere, I met someone on the beach today''

''Ooh.. is he cute?'' Kate asked while holding a green dress in front of her, asking for Lanie's opinion.

''Hum no... and yes, he was very cute''

''Are you meeting him tonight?'' yet holding another outfit in front of her.

''God no... and yes, but after our drinks. Now it's just you and my girl'' she gave her a little smile, and began to go towards the closet. ''Here, this one will make Castle hot'' She was holding this little flowery dress, you know, very hawaiian, but yet very pretty.

''I'm not interested in that.. but it is kinda pretty...'' she took from Lanie's hand and began to put it on.

''I saw the tention, I'm not blind.. I bet even Alexis saw it''

''Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about... So, what do you think?'' she was done in a minute and looking herself in the mirror.

''I think we're ready''


The bar was full of people, and there was some good music playing. There were all kinds of people: hawaiian, newly marrieds, families with 5 children, the Castle family..

Kate was laughing with all the stories Lanie was telling about her worse dates and shameless moments. Just as was getting good, Castle appeared out of nowhere behind Kate, and she almost jumped out of her skin.

''Nice dress Detective.. Lanie''

''Castle.. again.'' Kate said, with an annoyed tone ''Where's Alexis?''

''She and a new friend are still in the pool''

''And you're mother?''

''I think she's also with a friend.. called Bob'' he got a little smile out of her ''So I thought I'd join you ladies for a drink''

''Good, you can make company to Kate here 'cus I have a date''

''What? You said you were having drinks with me first!''

''Yeah, but I see that he's waiting for me, over there, see?'' she pointed where he was ''And you have Castle now, so I can go''with that she drank her drink and left the two alone.

''But.. Looks like it's just you and me''

''Good, I wanted to ask you some questions for my new chapter''

''What now?'' she rolled her eyes

''Okay so I got in this part where Nikki is enjoying her vacation and a man offers her to buy her a drink and I wanted it to be accurate so.. what drink would that be?''

She sighed but began to think ''A cosmopolitan maybe?''

''Very sex and the city but okay.. Excuse me, can I have a Cosmopolian for her? Thanks'' he asked the bartender. She smiled a little, but he didn't see that which she was glad.

''Anything else?''

''No, I belive that's good for today. I'm gonna go to the bathroom and I'll be right back. Enjoy your drink.''

She didn't say anything, just drank. Right after Castle left, a very handsome man asked her if the seat beside her was taken, and she said no.


Castle was in the bathroom, thinking about his next strategy to get closer to his muse, and he heard a noise. Someone slammed the door and began a fight. Castle put his ear to the door and quietly listened to what they were saying.

''You know Griffim is not gonna be very happy to hear that Jake''

''Yeah, and he gave us a little order to make you remember the deal'' He could just listen to the two men beating the other guy up, while he was screaming 'I'll get the money, I'll get the money!'

''You better do that until midnight, or you're not gonna breath another day in your life'' The two men left first and the 'Jake' left right after, with some difficult to walk.

Castle ran out of the bathroom to meet Beckett and tell her all about it. He couldn't belive, an actual murder was going to happen? 'It couldn't get better than that!' When he was close to the bar, he saw a very noisy Beckett laughing at everything a guy sitting next to her was saying. He couldn't help it, he was jealous! He left for 5 minutes and she was already talking to somebody else!

''Hey can I talk to you for a second?'' He decided to interrupt

''Is it really important?'' Ouch. 'Did she just dish him off?' he went over the handsome man and took her hand, beginning to pull her away.

''Excuse me, my wife was not supposed to be drinking, she gets overly bitchy''

''Hey hey...'' they were in the corner ''What the hell was that?''

''Sorry but I really needed to talk to you! I think.. I think there's going to be a murder'' he whispered to her.

Thank you so much for all the reviews, I appreciate it! So how are you all liking my dream? I got into the murder part and now it's getting trickier because I didn't really dreamed about how Jake was killed and why lol. So I might not update this weekend.. I'd be thinking about a good way to kill him lol

As always.. R&R please! (L)
