This chapter is probably my favorite so far:) Enjoy
Castle walks into his kitchen and finds Kate pulling out a pan and placing it on top of the stove. She then goes to the fridge to grab the eggs, her torso disappearing, only her legs; and her ass; being seen.
"And what are you up to?" he says coming up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her close against his chest. She turns in his embrace to face him.
"Making breakfast. Hope you like pancakes and bacon!" She says placing a quick kiss on his lips. She starts to walk away when he suddenly grabs her wrist, bringing her into him once more.
"Oh I do but, i like you more." He whispers suggestively as he presses his lips to her's and she melts into him nearly dropping the egg carton in her right hand. All of her previous thoughts gone as their tongues battle with each other.
Seeing her trouble, he takes the carton from her and places it on the counter next to the stove. He spins her so her back is against the island. He pushes her up on the counter top and stands between her legs. She wraps them around his waist and his mouth attacks her neck making her gasp. He worships her, kissing and nipping at the sensitive skin.
"You are... the most... beautiful...sexy.. remarkable woman...i have...every met." He says in between kisses. Leaving a hot trail all the way up her neck, until their mouths are again sealed over each other.
She cradles his face in her hands and starts to slow down the kiss.
"Castle.." She breathes out as he laves his tongue over her pulse point once again.
"Mhm huh?" He murmurs against her.
"We've got all day you know?" She says pulling him up to look at him. The passion and love is written all over his face and shown in his now very dark blue eyes.
"I know, I just love you." He watches as that makes a blush rises to her cheeks.
"We'll eat breakfast first, and then do what ever you want. Okay?"
"Okay." He says with a smile and lifts her off the counter and places her on her feet, while steeling one last kiss. They both try to catch their breath and continue to make breakfast without jumping on each other. Only with the occasional stolen kiss on Castle's part.
After cleaning up after themselves Rick grabs Kate's hand and leads her to the couch.
He sits and pulls her down to lay on the full length of the couch, so her head rests in his lap.
"So.. Your my girlfriend now." It comes out more like a question then he wanted. He continues playing with her hair as he watches Kate carefully.
"Yes, but do you think we could keep this to ourselves just a little while longer? I mean it's not that I don't want anyone to know, its just that Gates can't find out, or we can't work together anymore and..."
"Woah, Kate slow down. I completely understand. Can we at least tell Ryan and Espo yet?"
"No, not yet. If we do I'll never hear the end of it, but soon." She reassures him with a warm smile.
"Okay Kate, when ever your ready." he leans down to place a kiss to her lips, quick yet so tantalizing. Before his lips leave hers, she snakes her arm around his neck, keeping him in place.
She kisses him until they have to come up for air.
"Wow." she whispers as she sits up next to him.
"Yeah, defiantly never getting tired of that."
"So where's Alexis?" She wonders
"She said she's gonna be at her friend Paige's house until tomorrow."
"And your Mom?"
"I'm pretty sure she left yesterday for some retreat thing. Won't be back until Thursday. Why?"
"So now that we know we're gonna be alone all day, what do you want to do?
She grabs his hand and laces their fingers together. It feels so normal... so right.
"Whatever you want to do baby.." The pet name makes her heart flutter. She stands up and pulls him up with her in one swift motion.
"Great."
She says as she hoists herself up and wraps her legs around his waist, catching him completely off guard. Nearly knocking the both of them over.
"Take me to bed.."
"You mean take you to bed again?" He starts to kiss her neck and she gasps. He hits just the right spot that makes her mind go blissfully blank.
He takes the opportunity to slip his hand under her(his) shirt. Sliding it to the small of her back making her shiver, the other grabbing her ass.
She looks at him with a mischievous smile.
"What? It's for support! Or maybe i just like your ass-sets."
"Just make love to me Rick.."
"You sure as hell don't have to ask me twice!"
A catlike grin spreads across her face and he has to kiss it. He loves her smile more and more every time he is lucky enough to see it.
He carries her to his bedroom as she lets out a carefree laugh. Then and there he makes it a goal in life to always make her smile.. That dam gorgeous smile..and to hear her beautiful laugh every day.
He lays her down on the bed loving slow. Taking in all of her beauty.
"I love you so much Kate.. you are so beautiful." She captures his lips for a kiss. He soon deepens it, tongues battling, teeth grazing and nipping.
"I'm gonna make you scream Katherine Beckett"
No more talking
I love you too Rick
