A/N- Hey guys! Thanks so much for reviewing! I got some great input and I hope yall like this chapter! New chapter will be up in a few day J
Disclaimer- I asked for Castle for Christmas but I got socks.
"What? What kind of accident? Is everyone ok?" Castle asked as he frantically searched around for his keys.
"Castle I'm ok and so are the boys but…"
"But what? Lanie answer me!"
"It's Kate. She was shoved off a building, it's bad."
It was like everything was happening in slow motion. The phone slipped out of his hands his keys hit the floor. He could hear Lanie calling his name through the phone but he didn't care. His mind was spinning with thoughts of Beckett. He was truly scared, and Castle was never truly scared as he was in that moment. He was in tears by now but he picked the phone up off the floor.
"Lanie, where are you?"

Lanie walked back into the hospital to find the detectives crowded around a doctor. She rushed over to the group and saw the doctor with a grave look on his face.
"What happened? Is she ok?" She asked frantically
"She lost a lot of blood. Both of her legs are broken from the impact and her right shoulder is dislocated. She has a serious head injury and slight internal bleeding. She's in ICU on life support. She hasn't woken up."
"But she's alive right?"
"She's alive." The doctor confirmed "But her chances of survival are low. We don't know if she'll wake up."
Lanie collapsed against Javier in tears. He caught her and stroked her hair, comforting her quietly as he himself let a silent tear fall down his cheek.

Ryan was still in shock. She might not wake up? Beckett had taken him under her wing when he was just a uniform and basically brought him up. They were more than friends, she was like a sister to him and the thought of her never waking up brought him to tears. He looked over and saw the doctor talking to a distressed Jim Beckett. He saw Lanie sobbing into Esposito's chest and Espo himself shedding a tear. Even Gates looked like she had been crying.
'We don't know if she'll wake up'. He heard those words over and over in his mind and he began to feel lightheaded. As he sat down in an uncomfortable chair, there was a loud commotion at the receptionist desk. He was about to go complain when he heard a familiar voice calling out.
"Where's Beckett? Where is she?"

"Sir I'm sorry we can only give that information to family members." The secretary said as calmly as she could. "Now if you could take a seat in the waiting area we can get you what information we can."
"I'm not going anywhere until you tell me where she is. Is she alive?" Castle asked loudly through the tears on his face.
The secretary was about to speak again but before she could open her mouth someone called his name from the waiting room. Castle looked over and saw Lanie rushing towards him.
"Lanie! Is she ok? Where is she?" Castle called
Lanie crashed into him giving him a hug "She's in a coma. She's on life support and they, they don't know if she's going to wake up." She said through tears.
Castle stumbled backwards and a nurse's aid grabbed his arm.
"Maybe you should sit down sir" He said calmly as he led Castle to a chair. "Can I get you some water?"
"No I'm-I'm fine"
"Are you sure sir? You look like you-"
"No!" Castle snapped "Just leave me alone."
As he walked away, Lanie sat down beside him and rubbed his back.
"It's going to be ok Castle. She's made it through worse, she strong." She said, although not fully believing it herself. She was scared.
"But what if she doesn't Lanie? If she dies in there? What am I supposed to do then?"
"We have to be strong Castle. Be strong for Kate"
