Castle was racing through central park with his hand grasping Beckett. Not bothering to slow or make sure she was keeping up with him he continued on his merry way with one destination in mine...the loft.

"Castle...CASTLE slow down where are you taking me!"

"Back to the loft."

"Care to explain why?"

"Nope."

Suddenly Castle was pulled to a stop as Beckett planted her feet solidly into the ground, halting their forward movement.

"I'm not coming with you unless you tell me"

rolling his eyes in a surprising display of the "Beckett eye roll" Castle sighed lightly tugging on her hand.

"Can't you just let me surprise you?"

Looking down at their joined hands then back up to Castle, Kate could see the look of hope in his eyes, she could also see doubt and hurt she couldn't help feel that she was responsible. So with a sigh of her own she let a small smile onto her face.

"Fine Castle lead the way."

And just like that his whole face lit up and he was once again pulling her through the park it was all she could do not to let the giggle she was holding in free because honestly thats the last thing she needs Richard Castle teasing her because she giggled like a little girl. When they finally emerged from the park panting like they had run a marathon Castle waved down a cab, they bath crawled into the back thighs and shoulders touching as if it was something they did on a regular day. Castle proceeded to give the driver his address while Kate looked out the window biting her lip lost in thought about how things had changed between her and Castle and how she wanted more.

"Hey you ok?" asked Castle suddenly worried that she was uncomfortable.

"Hm...Oh yeah I'm fine why?" replied Kate not aware that she had been quite for quite sometime.

"You just seemed kind of worried, did you want to get dropped off or maybe just drop me of or w-

"Castle hey calm down, I'm fine I was just thinking ok?"

"What were you thinking about?"

"Just you."

For probably the third time that day their eyes met, sea blue met forest green, they stayed that way lost in each other so unaware of their surroundings that they both were oblivious to the fact that they had reached the loft.

"Hey you two done back there, I have other places to be you know!"

"Sorry!" shouted Castle throwing more then enough to cover the cab fair at the driver, then exiting the car to catch up to Beckett. They walked silently to the elevator where they both leaned against the back wall staring up at the numbers as they flashed on the small screen.

"So your still not going to tell me whats going on are you."

"Nope"

Just then the doors opened to reveal Castle's floor, hurrying out of the elevator Castle once again grabbed ahold of Beckett's hand pulling her in through the door.

"Ok Castle whats with all the hand pulling?"

"You ask a lot of questions."

Without answering her Castle lead her to his couch where he proceeded to sit her down telling her to stay there and make herself comfortable, Castle then took off towards his kitchen where he currently was and now that she thought about it he was being oddly quiet.

'Uh...Castle?"

"Yea?"

"what are you doing, did you need any help?" answered Beckett

"Nope you just keep your cute butt planted firmly on that couch." yelled Castle

Did he just say I have a cute butt? Kate thought to herself a small smile tugging at the corner of her lips because honestly that was quite funny that he just admitted to looking at her butt, well she knew that anyway. Castle came back into the living room carrying two glasses of wine. He stood there watching as Kate seemed miles away with a radiant smile on her face. Caslte cleared his throat gaining her attention once again.

"What are you thinking about?" he asked as he handed her a glass of wine.

"nothing, whats with the wine?"

"You said I could take care of you so i'm going to, you stay here and enjoy your wine the remote is on the coffee table feel free to watch anything you like." Castle explained as he stood and made his way towards his bedroom.

"Wait Castle where are you going!?"

"Be patient, you will see" He replied throwing a smile over his shoulder at her, the one that made her melt.

A few minuets later Castle re appeared, Beckett had finished her wine and was now happily lounging on the couch. Castle walked over to her and motioned for her to stand, grabbing her hand he lead her towards his bedroom.

" Again with the hand grabbing" mumbled kate under her breath causing Castle to chuckle slightly.

" So plan on telling me why you are leading me towards your bedroom, because if you think im sleeping with you you're dead wrong."

"No! Uh no thats not what I was thinking" he said as he pulled her into the bathroom where the tub was filled with bubbles and warm water, next to it was a book, glass of wine and about a dozen candles he had lit around the stopped dead in her tracks her breath catching.

"Castle?"

"Go get in, relax I will be out in the kitchen making dinner" He said giving her shoulder a light squeez before turning and leaving. Kate turned back towards the tub, noticing for the first time the big fluffy robe sitting ona stool by the tub. Shaking her head she began to undress. God I love that man she thought as she climbed into the warm water.
