Hi there!
Here's a second 4th of July prompt! This one is fluff, yay! Hope everyone has been having a good day.
Enjoy!
Work and writing had hindered their plans to stay in the Hamptons that weekend, so Rick and Kate found themselves sitting on the fire escape in hopes that they could catch a glimpse of the fireworks.
He stepped through the window, a glass of white wine in each hand. "For you."
"Why thank you." She smiled and took the glass from him.
"So how was work?" He sat down next to her and she leaned in to his side.
Kate shrugged. "It was okay. We wrapped up that case we were working on earlier this week."
"You did?" Castle sounded genuinely disappointed. "I didn't want to miss that!"
Kate laughed at him. "Sorry, babe. How did writing that chapter go?"
He pursed his lips, thinking of what to say. "Let's just say I'll be writing a lot tonight."
Kate rolled her eyes, taking a sip of her wine.
He mimicked her. "Sorry we couldn't go to the house this weekend."
"It's alright. Who doesn't like a nice lounge on the fire escape?"
Rick stuck his tongue into his cheek. "Easy sarcastic."
Kate giggled, stuck her tongue out, and grabbed his hand, running her thumb in small circles. "I'm kidding. As long as I'm with you, I don't mind."
"That's better." He smirked and then kissed her temple.
Just then, the sky lit up, and fireworks shot up past the buildings in the distance.
"Cheers." He held up his glass, and hers clinked against it. They both took another sip and settled into each other.
"You know," Kate whispered into his ear. "This is our first Independence Day as husband and wife."
"Hmm. That sounds like a reason to celebrate." He raised an eyebrow at her, a suggestive look on his face.
Kate stood, kissing his hand, then his neck, and then his lips. "I don't think you're going to get much writing done tonight." She tugged on his hand, stepped through the open window, and dragged him to the bedroom, the fireworks still lighting up the night.
Please review!
