AN: So there was a lot of drama going on in the last few chapters that I thought this chapter would be calmer and Castle and Beckett would just bond. Maybe something will happen who knows? (:

About two hours after the drama had died down and Beckett actually finished the paper work that Montgomery left on her desk she was ready to go home. Castle noticed Beckett was leaving and ran to catch up with her.

"Beckett your leaving?" He asked.

"Yes Castle, I've had enough for today." Beckett said, chuckling.

"Well why don't you come over, I'm sure Alexis would love the company, I wouldn't mind it either." Castle said flashing her a big smile. The elevator doors opened and the both stepped in, Beckett wanting to turn down his offer, but a little of her saying to say yes.

"Fine Castle, but no funny business." Beckett said completely serious.

"You got it Detective. Come over at 7?" He asked thinking about what he was going to make for dinner, he just happened to have all the ingredients for Beckett's favorite meal, fettuccine alfredo.

As soon as Beckett arrived at her apartment she headed straight to her closet. She had to pick out the perfect outfit. She decided to wear jeans, boots, and a cute sweater. She went into the living and decided to check her messages before she left. There were a couple from her dad and from different companies and just when she thought they finished Josh's voice came on.

Beckett I know I ended things not in well way and I did it out of jealousy I really care about you and I hope you can…..

Before Beckett even realized she hit the delete button. I'm done with him. He is out of my life now and now there is room for Castle. She thought to herself. With that Beckett left her apartment and headed to Castle's.

Fifteen minutes later Beckett arrived at Castle's apartment, she knocked on the door, and was a little startled when Castle answered the door. He was wearing all his equipment for laser tag game that he had brought for him and Alexis. Soon Alexis arrived behind Castle and greeted Beckett.

"Hello Beckett. Dad said you were gonna join us for dinner. I see dad forgot his manners. Come in." Alexis said giving her the same smile Castle always does.

Beckett walked in a right away she smelt the pasta that was cooking. He didn't she thought. She never liked when he did special things for her and he knew that.

"I know what you're thinking. Yes that is fettuccine alfredo." Castle said walking over to the closet to get Beckett a laser tag outfit. He handed her the outfit, at first she refused but then took the outfit put it on and shortly after her, Castle, and Alexis were chasing each other around the house.

Around nine o' clock Castle stopped them and told them it was time for dinner. Beckett helped him set the table and they all sat down to eat. After dinner Alexis went upstairs into her room but Beckett didn't want to leave just yet.

"Want to watch a movie?" Castle asked her.

"Sure what do you have?" Beckett answered.

"Your choice, their over there." Castle said pointing to a big drawer under the T.V. filled with dvds.

Beckett came back with a comedy and a romance movie and let Castle decide between the two.

"This one." Castle said pointing to the comedy. He popped in the dvd, turned out the lights, and sat on the couch next to Beckett. Half way during the movie Castle felt Beckett curl up next to him and gently lean her head against his arm. He flinched a little from surprise and she quickly pulled her head away.

"I'm sorry." Beckett said in a low whisper.

"No no it's ok." Castle said putting his arm around her as she curled up comfortably against him.
