"Rick... I have to tell you something." Kate started, "I heard you..."

"What do you mean?" Castle asked, pulling the blanket over them a little more.

"I heard you... When I, when I got shot. I'm sorry..." Kate finally had plucked up the courage to tell him, and nothing was going to interrupt them now.

A grin was spreading over Castle's face. "I know... I realised that when you kept saying you had something to say but we kept getting interrupted. Why are you sorry?" Castle asked, as he wiped the tears that were silently falling down Kate's cheeks.

"Well, I thought you would be grumpy, get mad; because all of this time I had been lying to you... I thought this might hurt you..." Kate trailed off.

"Well, I'm not mad at you am I? I knew you would eventually say. I can never get mad with you, Kate. I love you too much." Castle finished wrapping his arms round her tightly and kissing her forehead.

"That's good then, because I wanted to wait for you, solve my Mum's murder so I could have a proper relationship with you. Because I... I am in love with you Rick. I am in love with you. I love you." Kate said smiling.

Castle's face lit up like a little kid who just got that new puppy or scooter. "Wow, Kate, that's great! God I love you." Castle said, literally grinning from ear to ear. "This is just amazing!" Castle was beginning to babble.

"Just shut up and kiss me Rick." Kate said, twisting on Castle's lap so she could properly face him.

"As you wish Ms Beckett." Castle said as he leaned towards Kate, they locked lips. This kiss wasn't like the night where they had pretend kissed, that was full of hunger and desperateness. This kiss was slow, tender, deep, and full of love and passion.

Kate could feel all the butterflies just flying around in her stomach, it felt like fireworks were surrounding them; just like the movies. Kate had been waiting for this moment ever since she had met Rick. His hands reached the back of Kate's neck, playing with a few strands of hair. When they broke for air Kate let out a moan of pleasure. "Wow that was..." Castle started.

"Amazing!" Kate finished, and just like Castle grinning from ear to ear.

"I love you Rick..." Kate said, her hand trailing down his chest, feeling his abs quiver at her touch.

"Aww Katie, I love you too, I love you so much." Castle replied, still grinning. "You have made me the happiest man alive!"

"Well... You have made me pretty happy to Castle." Kate said blushing.

"When did you know? That you were in love with me?" Castle asked.

"When..." Kate drew out a breath, "I had realised I had feelings for you when you and Gina walked off together to go to the Hamptons. I was going to say that I would come. That's when I knew I was falling for you, I was falling for you hard Rick. Just to see her walk off with you broke my heart. I then realised I was crazy in love with you. That day when we nearly froze to death I was going to say that I loved you."

"Wow, Kate. If I hadn't have gone to the Hamptons with Gina we already may have been together. I would've given anything to wind back the clock and not go with Gina, but with you. I knew I certainly was in love with you then. I took Gina to the Hamptons after you said you didn't want to come because I was jealous of you and Demming."
"Oh, Rick, I broke up with him to go to the Hamptons with you." Kate said.

"Kate, Katie, I'm so sorry baby." Castle said kissing her.

"It's okay, and look we are together now! That's all that matters."

"It sure is, come here!" Castle said grabbing Kate as they rolled around on the couch kissing each other, it was like neither of them wanted to stop.

Castle's hand slid up Kate's top, making Kate shiver at his touch. It felt so good; she began to unbutton the top Castle was wearing. Running her hands up and down his abs. Kate broke the kiss apart. "I think we should take this to the bedroom." Kate said getting up, "You coming Castle?"

"Oh yes!" Castle said as he ran over to Kate, scooped her up into his arms, just how the groom would do to his bride. Castle carried Kate all the way to the bedroom and kicked the door shut behind him.

...

"Wow, Rick. That was the best thing that has ever happened to me." Kate moaned.

"Yeah, that was the best." Castle said, cuddling Kate. "I think that was the best night in my life!"

"Agreed! Isn't it lucky that today is my day off?" Kate said teasing Castle.

"Why Detective, what are you hinting at?"

"Ohh, Mr Castle, you know what I mean. After breakfast if you've been a good boy you might just get to come in here again."

"Oh yes!"

"Thought that you would be interested." Kate said smiling, "This moment is perfect, I don't want it to end."
"Me neither, have I ever told you how much I love you?" Castle asked, stealing a kiss from Kate.

"You might've, just once or twice... I love you too."

"I want to wake up to this every morning Kate. This is perfect, and you never know I might convince you to become a Mrs Castle."

"Rick... Is this you proposing?" Kate asked sitting up.

"It could be, what would you answer be though?" Castle asked, looking nervous.

"You know my answer would always be a yes, Rick. I love you too much."

"Wow! Oh my... Did you just agree to marry me?"
"Yup, I'm pretty sure I just did." Kate said grinning; the look on Castle's face was just priceless, "But I do want a ring mister."

"Yay! We are engaged to be engaged! You have just made me the happiest man alive! God I love you Kate!" Castle said, wrapping his arms around her.

"Yeah, and I think only we can be engaged to be engaged! I mean look how long it took us to get to here!" Kate said laughing.

"Yes, but all that time we spent waiting has been good. Look at us now!" Castle said leaning in to kiss Kate.

"One more thing Rick... I think we need to change something on Facebook. Huh?"

"You want to? Wow Kate!"

"Of course I want too, I love you Rick. Then we can let the others stew over this. It will be perfect." Kate said grabbing her phone off the bedside cabinet to log on to her Facebook.

One relationship request, from Rick Castle. "Wow that was quick Rick." Kate exclaimed as she accepted the request. Before she logged off she quickly typed "Rick Castle, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love you so much. XXXX" Then she logged off her Facebook.

"So I was thinking time for breakfast?" Castle asked as he got out of bed.

"How about we go out? I umm don't have much in the cupboards at the moment." Kate said sheepishly.

"Well in that case then, my shout then we stop by the supermarket?"

"Sure Rick. I'm going to have a shower; I may need some help in there Rick." Kate asked, teasing Rick.

"Serious?"

"Yup, come on Rick!" Kate said as she got up, there was a pain between her upper thighs, making it difficult to walk. But the pain was also pleasurable from last night.

Kate grabbed Rick's hand and led him to the bathroom, she turned on the spray. Waiting for it to warm up, her and Rick were already naked so when it was ready they leapt in. First Rick shampooed Kate's hair and massaged it in for her. It felt so good, Kat relaxed into Rick's body. Then it was Kate's turn to shampoo Rick, they then rinsed off the shampoo from their hair. Stealing kisses in between. "Mmmm, you smell like cherries Kate." Rick grinned as he lifted Kate out of the shower and grabbed the towels.

"Well, you smell like cherries to Rick." Kate said grinning as she dried herself.

Rick went back into the bedroom to get dressed while Kate did her hair and makeup in the bathroom. When Kate finished she walked back into the bedroom she saw Rick, with is phone in his hand. "Uh, Kate. I just had ten missed calls from Lanie and lots of texts from her and the boys." He said, showing Kate his phone.

"So it looks like they have been on Facebook today. Just ignore them that will be fun!"

"Good plan, my beautiful and cunning girlfriend." Rick said grabbing Kate for a kiss.

When they broke apart Kate said, "You are gonna have to let me get dressed Rickkkkk. Otherwise we will never get out of here!"

"Oh, fine. But can I watch you?" Rick asked hopefully.

"Sure Rick." Kate said smiling. It was weird to think this time yesterday she was still trying to bring up that she loves Rick and now here she was going out for breakfast after an amazing night. Kate was the happiest girl in the world. She was sure she had a glow too, for the first time in a while Kate was genuinely happy.

Hope this was all you imagined! I loved writing this chapter, sorry if you find mistakes I wrote this quickly so I could update and put you guys out of your wait! Haha, I will write a few more chapters to this and eventually a sequel I think. Hopefully I will get to update soon.
