Disclaimer: I do not own Castle.

He woke up. It was all a dream and it was a very scary one. He wouldn't want that to happen in real life. He looked at the clock. He's going to be late. He showered then met his family downstairs.

"Dad, you look so pale. What happened?" His teen walked up to him. Her hand cupped his chin then examined his face.

"I had a nightmare." His daughter hugged him for comfort.

"Aren't you a little too old for nightmares my dear?" His mother teased.

"It's just a nightmare where Beckett, Meredith and Gina got close and picked on me."

His girls chuckled then they went out.


He was holding 2 cups of coffee when he got out the break room.

"Hey, guys have you seen Beckett?"

"Nope, she hasn't came back but she says she'll be here in a minute."

"Yo Castle, why do you look so pale today?"

"I had a nightmare."

"Jeez Castle, it's just a nightmare."

"Yeah, where my ex-wives and Beckett were picking slash torturing me."

"Hey, Castle."

"What?"

"Dreams do come true." Ryan pointed at the elevator.

"Oh no." he went back to the break room to hide but he was too late.

"Castle" "Richard" "Ricky"

He turned around and gave a fake smile that he only uses for the public.

They were looking at the cups of coffee wondering who will he give it to.

He was perspiring and he didn't know what to do. Then, he heard Esposito whispered to Ryan.

"Oh, this is gonna be good."

He quickly gave the coffee to the guys.

"So what do you want with me ladies?" He gave them again a smile he uses for paparazzi.

"His ego is getting bigger again."

"It must be so hard to deal with him every day, Kate."

"Oh, you have no idea."

"Actually, we kind of do."

"I got your point but he gets more childish as he gets older."

"I'm right here in front of you."

"We know." They all said in unison.

The boys stood up. "Good luck, bro." Esposito said.

"I really wish we could watch you suffer." Ryan pat his back.

They head towards the elevator.

He looked at the ladies again and it seems like they were talking about him again.

He gulped. "Apples."

They heard him and they laughed again.
