At the 12 th Precinct
4:45 pm
Kate is by her desk, she has a huge box packing up everything from her desk. Planned to live with her Dad. Gathering up all of her things, she was looking around at everyone. Who was staring at her, made a huge mess and mistake. But she need time, to figure out her own life. Hoping to at least make amendments to everyone. But she would, have a very long road. She had to make peace with not only herself; Castle, Lanie, Esposito, Ryan and her Captain. Putting the last of her things, inside her box. Looking around her workplace, one last time. Holding her thing's very close, going over to the elevator and getting on. Everyone was looking at her; but she no longer cared at all. Cause it was her time, to take care of herself. The elevator doors closed, she took some deep breathe.
Back At The Hotel
9:35 pm
Rick was looking at his family; he could see Carrie was playing on table, two twin boys; were fast asleep on a blanket. The sight was very cute, they both had, their small thumbs inside their mouths. Sucking on them, in their sleep. He couldn't stop laughing, but it made his heart fly with joy. He see that his wife; is going over everything in her notes. She had always, had a soft spot for trouble children. He had a lot on his mind, he wasn't sure if, he should invite Kate Beckett or not. Sure they had a past and shared some history, plus a partnership and friends once. But unfortunately, there was a lot of hurt their too. No one could erase or take back, cause once say some hurtful thing's, there wasn't time to think or think before speaking. Sure he wasn't much better. But he made a lot of mistakes with her too. Then you realize, that no matter how many times, you do something nice for other people none of them, are really your friends. Cause real friends; are the ones who will stand behind you and have your back.
Early the next morning
5:45 am
Jessica and Rick woke up pretty early, decided to go for a run. Maybe get breakfast, for the kids. Rick is wearing his running gear, so is Jessica. She grabs two water bottles, they check on the kids. Right before they go on there big run, a maid told them. That they would check up on their children; she had seven children of her own, so, she could understand their worry. Both of them, hit the cold crisp air; they felt awake. Started during running; they had gotten three miles in together. Slowing down run, holding each other hands. Jessica head is up against his shoulder. If they had paid attention, they would have noticed a female figure following them. But she was too far behind them. Could have seen, tears stained on her face or her puffy red eyes.
Kate is in the same park; she saw him couldn't believe it. Castle was here, back in New York City. He was kissing a woman on the back of her head. Her face show anger and hurt, she feeling all over again. Her jealousy; was peaking up again. But she don't have a right to get angry at him. He wasn't one in the wrong, she was. Deciding to get far away from the happy couple. Decided to make a run for it; to her dad apartment building. Turn another corner in the dark alleyway. Watching as the couple continued on their way. Taking some deep breathe; it was very difficult at first. But, if only she hadn't pushed him away. Now, he has another woman with him. He looked very happy; with holding the woman in his arms.
Back at John Beckett's Apartment
6:25 am
John was up very early, this morning making himself a very hot cup of coffee. He was holding a newspaper; but it had Richard Castle photography. He saw, that his next book would be out tomorrow night. He wasn't sure, if weather or not to show his daughter. Cause, he know that his daughter had always, had a secret crush on the man for years. But, his daughter Katie had decided to play some high school game instead. He was sitting in his favorite chair. He heard the door opening up. He already knew, who it was anyway. Saw his daughter; walking to the bathroom. Closes the door behind her; he heard the door locking. He knew that, she would come out when she was ready.
In the bathroom
Kate slides down the door, she is sitting on her butt; in the bathroom. Her legs are against her chest. Has her arms on her lap, leaning her head down to her arms. Couldn't hold back her sobbing anymore. Her heart was in so much pain. Her tears were falling down her face. All she wanted to do, at this point was scream and yell. But she don't, have too feel so bad. She got what, she had wanted him gone. It wasn't true, what was she hoping for? That he was going to forgive her. Castle was going to tell her everything would be alright.
There was a very loud firm knock on the bathroom door. "Katie?! Are you alright in there?"
She don't answer him right away, she just kept crying into her arms.
"Katie?! I really need to take a shower. I got court very early this morning."
Kate still hadn't moved an inch, she was still crying, into her arms.
"KATIE?! YOU NEED TO COME Out of there."
"DAD?! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE."
Her father, had just given up and went into his bedroom and got dressed for court. He got dressed in a hurry, then left before. He said something, that he might regret later on. Getting into his car, his daughter needed to get a grip and soon.
