Morgue

"Green and white nylon like I thought," Lanie confirmed. "3 strand twisted quarter inch rope, just like the other 8 and slanting to the left."

Kate sighed. "Debby is the 9th one. Jerry has gone was over board at Rachel Gold our first victim. Castle, we have to stop him before he kills at least the next 2 woman.

"I know."

"Wait there's more," Lanie started. "There was a sign of struggle on her fore arm. I'm going to see if I can get a hand print off of her."

"Esposito did say her desk was messed up," Castle stated calmly.

"She might not have wanted him to see him in the desk-"

"That's why she has bruises on her arms."

"She could have known him. She could have been special just like Linda," she stated sympathetically.

It's like they were in some sort of trance but then suddenly remembered where they were and turned toads Lanie. She had a big smile on her face. "C-come on Castle let's go."

"Wait!" Lanie blurted. "I want to talk to you for a minute Kate."

Beckett had a strange facial expression on her face. "Uh sure. Castle tell the guys I'll be up in a minute."

"Sure."

Once Castle was gone Beckett said, "So what do you need? And why are you smiling? What's up?"

"You tell me?"

"What do you mean?"

"Oh please. It's not like I didn't see what happened at Miss. Mahoney's apartment girl. Spill!"

"What do you mean? What did you see?" Beckett knew very well what Lanie was talking about. The stare.

"Girl, you know, what I'm talking about. That stare between Castle and you. Everyone saw it. What was going on in that little mind of yours?"

Kate pushed a little piece of hair behind her ear. Dang! I do push my hair behind my ear for a couple more seconds to think! She thought. Natalie Roads was right!

"Eh hem!" Lanie took Beckett out of that thought and brought her back to reality. Lanie stared at her for an answer.

"Uh, we just looked at each other to see if we had the same idea about William Cramer."

"Alright! But when I hear this thing from Javier or Ryan, I'ma smack you!"

"Lanie, you used that line on me before," Kate protested.

Lanie smiled. "Glad you paid attention! Now go, 'Mr. Wright' is waiting for you!" Lanie smirked.

"Lanie, would you just stop with this? Castle and I are not together, nor will we ever be!"

"Mmm hmm. I'll be saying "I told you so" when you do!" Lanie called after Kate as soon as she opened the door to leave.

Mean while up in the precinct...

"Hey guys!" Castle shouted once he got out of the elevator.

"Yo, Castle" and "Hey, Castle" came from the two men at their desks. "Where's Beckett?" Ryan asked.

"Oh, she's with Lanie, talking."

Esposito spoke up. "About what?"

"I don't know but she wanted me to tell you she'll be right up."

A couple seconds went by when Ryan and Esposito looked at each other then smiled then looked back at Castle with wide smiles.

Castle looked at them mysteriously. "Wha-whats going on? Your starting to scare me know. You guys look like your Elliot from 'Scary movie 2' but you know without the messed up hand."

The guys laughed lightly. "Ha thanks." Ryan started. "Let's get right to it, Castle. It's not like it didn't go unnoticed by everyone.

"What?" Castle questioned.

"Oh come on. You, Beckett, the stare. Everyone saw it, Castle," Esposito replied.

"So, we look at each other all the time." Castle knew it wasn't just a look but it in deed was a stare. He just didn't want to admit anything to the guy's or he would never hear the end of it. Him or Beckett. Oh and would she kill him for that!

"No no no! We see you "look" at each other all the time! Although this stare- yes I said stare- was more… what's the word? Help me Esposito."

"This stare was more intense, intimate," He helped.

"Oh? Well it was nothing," Castle concluded trying to sound convincing.

"We just don't want to hear this "thing" from, Lanie, OK?"

"Um-" Ding! Castle was cut off by the sound of an elevator hitting its floor. Out came Detective Kate Beckett. The Poor writer let out a sigh. He excused himself from his non related brother's and made his may to Kate. "How was your talk?"

"Interesting," replied Beckett.

"So was mine." Beckett looked at him questioningly as they made their way to her desk. "Ryan and Esposito were asking- no telling me- about something."

"Hmm. Funny me too."

"Really? I don't see you laughing."

"And there you go opening your mouth and running the moment again!" That made him pout. Once they finally got to her desk, she shouted, "Hey, Ryan, do you have Steven Jones, Debby's boyfriend and her mom here?"

"Yeah they're in that room waiting for you guys."

[-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-]

"I'm sorry for you're loss Mrs. Mahoney and Mr. Jones," said Beckett in a meaningful way.

"It's Danielle please." Beckett nodded. "I d-don't understaaaand," Mrs. Mahon-Danielle sobbed and whaled.

"Why would anybody want to hurt her?" Steven, Debby's boyfriend asked in a hurt way but not crying.

"We don't know yet," Castle replied.

"All we know," Beckett started. "Is that Jerry Tyson killed her and 8 other women. We are trying to find a way to contact him."

Danielle's eye's got wide and she started to pant. "J-J-Jerry T-Tyson?"

"Yes, do either of you know him?"

"Steven shook his head saying "No" but Danielle nodded and spoke up. "Yes I have. He- he was my daughter's ex-husband."
