UnderCover Wedding

Chapter Eighteen

Three weeks later…

Rick, Kate & Alexis had the nursery done. Kate was really showing for only a little over 3 months. She figured that it was probably one of those things where every woman is different when they're pregnant. Depending on how tall & thin you are. Some show more than others where some hardly show at all.

At the 12th…

"I hate being on desk duty & not being able to be out in the field! And it's all your fault!" Kate said looking at Rick & throwing an empty coffee paper cup at him.

Rick smiled & said, "Huh…? Really? I think I remember that you're the one who started it all?" looking at her & raising his eyes.

Beckett blushed while Esposito & Ryan snickered.

An hour later Rick went for dinner at Remy's to bring back to the Precinct. Kate had a craving for burgers so that's what he got.

While they were eating, Esposito & Ryan got a call about a body drop. Beckett pouted. Castle just laughed. She threw a rolled up napkin at him. That made him laugh even more.

"I really hate you, you know that." Beckett said.

Castle said, "No you don't…you love me & you can't wait to get me home. Hint Hint."

"You think you know me so well don't you." Said Kate.

Rick said, "Of course! Why would you think other wise?"

"Well then here's one for you then. You're sleeping on the couch tonight." Said Kate.

Castle said, "Ouch! There's those mood swings again." Surprising her by kissing her in front of everyone in the 12th.

She didn't put up much of a fight. She knew he was right.

"Hey you two lovebirds, go home for the night! This isn't a hotel." Said Montgomery smiling at them.

They didn't have to be told twice. They left a few minutes later.

Two hours later they were cuddling on the couch in front of the tv watching a movie. Alexis & Martha were out for the night. So they had the apartment to themselves.

Rick made popcorn & other snacks. Kate just sat on the couch wrapped in a blanket.

After the movie they went to bed. Hours later all you could hear was laughing & giggling coming from their room.

"You think we'll ever find out what happened the day of our wedding?" said Kate.

Rick said, "I don't know? I know we're closing in on the Mayor. Even though it wasn't supposed to be real at least it brought us together & we now have this little baby on the way." Smiling at her.

"I know. But maybe…ok probably that was his or whoever's plan for this to happen? There were bets on us since we met." Said Kate.

Rick said, "True. But we will find out what happened sooner or later. I hope anyway. It would be nice to have some answers to all this."

Kate smiled & kissed him. "Let's stop talking." She said.

He smiled back & said, "Now you're talking Mrs. Castle. I really like the sound of that."

"Me too." Kate said smiling.

Laughter & more giggles a few minutes later.
