"Who wants to help me zip up?" Beckett said, walking over to the bed where the girls were sitting on their knees.
"I will," Julia said, looking at her sister. "My fingers can hold onto it." She sat up a little more and pulled the zipper on the dress up until it was closed and she said, "I'm glad you brought this dress."
"I'm sure your daddy is too," Beckett replied, reaching up and touching the bun in her hair to make sure the comb was set in it. "Okay we're ready to go and I'm sure-"
At the sudden knock on the door Julia said, "Ooh, I bet that's Daddy," to her little sister. "He came to see Mommy."
"Wait," Beckett said, going to them and helping Eliza down. She followed them to the door and when Julia opened it she wasn't too surprised to see her husband on the other side.
"I was told to come and get you," Castle said, forcing himself to look at the girls first though he really wanted to look at his wife.
"Mommy's ready," Julia said. She stepped aside with her sister and said, "See?"
"I do," Castle said, letting his gaze on her linger for just a little before he turned to Eliza saying, "Are you ready?"
"Yeah," the toddler replied, taking her sister's hand before they stepped out together into the hall.
"You look beautiful love," Castle told his wife as he went to her, placing his hand on her back and kissing her cheek.
"I had another dress in mind but…" Beckett replied, glancing over at their daughters.
"They overruled that?" Castle asked in amusement. When she nodded he leaned down and kissed her on the lips tenderly before he took her hand so they could go. Walking after his family to the elevator, he unabashedly ogled his wife knowing the girls were aware he loved her 'Mother's Day dress' as they called it. And he was glad that they did know, since she never failed to arouse him even more when she wore it. He shook his head as his wife turned to him and leaned down to the girls, picking up Eliza before he put her on his hip. "You two look very pretty too," he told her though he was talking to her and her sister.
"You said that already," Julia said as she was smiling up at him.
"Still, it needed to be said again," Castle replied as they stepped out into the lobby. He took Beckett's hand and they walked to the Oakroom Restaurant where the rest of their family was waiting for them.
"Are kids allowed here?" Beckett whispered to him, suddenly wondering why she hadn't asked him that before.
"Ours are," Castle said, handing Eliza to Alexis as they were being led to their table. Not surprised to see his wife glancing at him he quickly added, "I may have-"
"Mentioned our names," Beckett said.
"Right and the fact that Eliza's three slightly helped," Castle said. "I assured them she was well behaved. And again, mentioned our names."
"As long as it helped," Beckett said with a smile, squeezing his hand gently before she let him help her into her chair.
The girls were largely quiet through their meal glancing out the windows they were seated at and around the room, watching the couples at the other tables as well. At one point while they were eating Eliza reached under the table and squeezed her sister's hand tightly, feeling reassured by the squeeze she felt in return as she knew that meant Julia felt the same. They spoke to their family but the ambiance of the room and the glances of other patrons made them behave and stay quiet, though when they left after they'd finished and were asked if they'd enjoyed it they assured the others they'd loved it.
"That was really good food," Julia said, not surprised to see her sister nodding in agreement.
"Now go swim?" Eliza asked hopefully.
"Yes," Beckett said with a smile as they headed to the pool. "We were thinking of taking a tour of the grounds but we'll do that after we get back from our ride and before your daddy and grandpapa play golf."
"We were going to head into Adare," Alexis said when she went into the changing room with her stepmother and sisters. "Gram and I."
"That's fine," Beckett said. "I'll have to think of something to do with them."
"Swim!" Eliza said, jumping up with her arms up since her mother was coming to her to take off her sundress she'd worn to dinner.
"We could," Beckett replied absently.
"What else is there to do?" Julia asked, putting on the top of her bathing suit.
"I'll think of something," Beckett replied easily before she turned away so the little girl could grab the zipper on her dress.
"Oh, Daddy's not going to be happy," Julia commented when she and Beckett were alone in the dressing room as Alexis had gone. She was watching her mother take off the comb in her hair before taking down the bun it was in.
"I'll put it back the way it was," Beckett replied with a smile. "Don't worry." She slipped into her cover up robe and said, "Are you ready?"
"Yeah," Julia replied. "I hope they didn't go in yet."
"Took you long enough," Castle said jokingly, looking at the little girl when she and Beckett had reached where they were at the two chairs Jim and Martha had picked out.
"I had to help Mommy," Julia said with a slight laugh. "Can we go now?" she asked, looking around the room and then through the windows.
"Sure if you're wondering," Castle said, seeing where her gaze was. "That's the golf course on the other side of the river."
Nodding Julia took her mother's hand and followed him, Eliza and Alexis to the pool where they climbed in before pushed herself off the side and swam into the middle. "It's warm!" she said happily.
"That's why we're letting you swim so late at night," Beckett said.
"Also to work off that dinner," Castle said. He spluttered when he was suddenly splashed in the face and looked at Alexis who had done it. "You know I mean all of us right?" he asked her.
"You still deserved it," the young woman replied wryly before she swam with him after the others.
"How do you like it sweetheart?" Castle asked, coming up to swim next to Eliza.
"Fun!" the toddler cried, trying to swim the best she could while her mother helped her to the other end. "I wanna jump," she told Beckett seriously then as she was helped up to sit on the edge above them.
"I have to agree, this looks like a great pool to jump into," Alexis said with a smile at the toddler who was stroking the top of her hair carefully.
"Then go ahead," Castle told them. He went over to the middle of the pool with Beckett as Alexis and Julia swam to the ladder to climb out. "Wait," he said to Eliza who was left by her sisters in front of him and his wife.
"I wanna watch," the toddler told him before she turned her attention to her sisters.
"Watch," Julia said, calling to her grandparents. "I'm gonna do a cannonball." With that she jumped off the side and tried her best to curl up before she hit the water. When she resurfaced she looked over at her family asking, "How was that?"
"Big splash!" Eliza cried before anyone else could answer.
"She's right, you almost got me wet," Jim commented as she came out of the water at the ladder near them. "Again?" he asked as she went to him.
Pressing her lips to his cheek Julia shook her head and then went back to the end of the pool where Alexis was diving in. She watched the young woman swim to the middle, behind their parents, and then said to Eliza, "You can jump now."
"Kay," the toddler said eagerly. She jumped slightly in excitement and waited for her father to say she could go.
"Go ahead sweetie," Beckett said instead, swimming behind her husband. She watched with a smile as Eliza leapt off the side and under the water before Castle helped her up. She then noticed; as the toddler resurfaced; that her father was taking off the blazer he'd worn to dinner and she swam to the edge asking him, "Did you get wet?"
"She's very enthusiastic," Jim commented, setting the jacket aside.
"Very, calm down Eliza," Castle said to the toddler who was trying to wriggle out of his hold. "Do you want to jump again?"
"There," Eliza replied, pointing over to the end where Julia was about to jump in again.
"Come on," Beckett said before Castle could reply to that, reaching out and having her swim alongside her. She had to support the toddler towards the end but it was easily done. She helped her out and then swam out of the way saying, "Let your sister go first."
"Can I go with her?" Eliza asked as rapidly as she could say.
Shaking his head as he joined Beckett at the end, though on the other side, Castle said, "Better to be safe you know."
Wrinkling her nose at him since he would tell her that sometimes when he needed to say no to her Eliza watched Julia jump out into the water as far as she could. She then waited as patiently as she could; shifting from foot to foot; before her mother let her know she could jump. Once she was under the water she opened her eyes in time to see Beckett picking her up and she cried out in joy as she was lifted above her head. "Throw Mommy!"
"I'll do that," Castle said, swimming over to them as he glanced down at the other end of the pool. He had wondered why Alexis hadn't gotten out to jump again with Julia but saw the two were treading water together and talking quietly before Eliza was grabbing his ear lobe. "Ow," he said, reaching up to pull her hand away. "Your mom taught you that didn't she?" he asked her.
Eliza merely giggled in response before she kissed his cheek as he swam near the shallow end. "Why Daddy?" she asked him immediately.
"I can't throw you if I can't stand on something," Castle replied easily. And after asking her if she was ready he threw her over to where Beckett was waiting, making sure that she got their daughter before he slipped under the water. Reaching them he playfully pinched Eliza's side and heard her squeal of pleasure as he resurfaced in front of them.
"Are you going?" Beckett asked.
Showing her the time on his watch Castle wasn't surprised when his wife nodded and he kissed them both before he swam over to the ladder.
"Where are you going Richard?" Martha asked in slight surprise.
"I'll be back," Castle said simply. He grabbed his towel and dried off before leaving to change looking back before he left the pool to see Beckett was setting their youngest outside it.
"But we haven't been swimming that long," Julia protested as she swam to her mother at the ladder; Alexis having climbed out then.
"It's been a while kiddo," Martha called from where she was drying off Eliza.
"We'll likely come back tomorrow," Beckett assured her daughter. "The three of us."
Sighing Julia got out of the water and then took her towel from her grandfather saying, "I could have swum longer."
"I know but it's getting late," Jim replied, patting her back through her towel.
Once Beckett was sure the girls would be helped back into their sundresses she left to change back into her dress, drying her hair the best she could before she went over to a mirror and put it back up in a bun. Running her fingers over it she hoped it would still dry before she lowered her arms and then tucked the comb back in place. Stepping out into the room where the others were still waiting she smiled and said, "I guess he needed some help," as she walked over to sit on a chair with Eliza climbing on her lap.
"Help for what?" Alexis asked, sitting with Julia on the end of their grandmother's chair.
"Dessert," Beckett said, looking over at her husband when he walked in then. She smiled as Eliza gasped since a hotel employee was following him inside the room. "You didn't get one for each of us did you?"
"No," Castle assured her. "This is yours," he told her as he handed her the glass he had in one hand. "And yours sweetheart," giving the other to Julia.
"What is this?" Jim asked, looking down at what was in his glass after they'd all been served.
"Eton mess," Castle replied. "Hopefully you'll enjoy it."
Watching the others try it Beckett wasn't surprised when they gave short nods before getting another spoonful of the dessert. She ate some of what she and Eliza were sharing and said, "Since it's so late we'll need to give them a short bath Rick."
"I was thinking of that myself," Castle told her. He glanced at their daughters but wasn't surprised to find them so involved with their desserts that they didn't really reply to that. "Tomorrow we won't be doing things so late."
"It sounds like it will be a day of leisure," Martha commented.
"It will," Castle replied. "And you talked about going into Adare, what if I got you into the Lavender Cottage?"
"What's that?" Alexis said, sharing a glance with her grandmother.
"Their spa," Beckett told them. "He tried to get something for me there the last time we were here but I declined. I would go though; it's supposed to be nice."
"You already have us signed up for it don't you Dad?" Alexis asked him wryly.
"I thought you would enjoy it but according to who I talked to over there you need to choose what you'll be going through," Castle said.
"Well that makes me look forward to tomorrow that much more," Martha said, looking at Eliza as she spoke. "And you girls will be with your mother. So it looks like we will have a very nice day."
"Speaking of which," Beckett said then as she and Eliza finished their small portion of the dessert.
"Is that why we didn't have much?" Alexis asked with a smile, finishing and seeing the others were doing the same around her.
"It is," Castle said. "And it's getting late, so time for anyone under ten to take a bath."
"That means us," Julia said before she started to giggle at the way her sister started to yawn widely. She got off the chair and followed the rest of her family to the elevators, trying not to yawn herself as she was starting to feel tired. It wasn't until she and Eliza were in the tub in their room they shared with Alexis that she woke up a little when the first patter of rain hit the windows next to them. "That was fun," she said to her mother who was rinsing her hair for her while Castle was doing the same for Eliza.
"It was," he said first. "So that means what we decided to do is working," he commented to his wife.
Laughing slightly and shaking her head Beckett replied, "We made sure they'd have fun."
"Wake up Eliza," Castle said, rubbing her back before he started to wash it with soap.
"Are we really gonna go swimming?" Julia asked hopefully as she washed herself.
"We are," Beckett replied. "I figured you two wouldn't be satisfied with just that short time in the pool tonight. But we will go out on the grounds and have lunch together before that."
"We will," Julia asked eagerly, sharing a look with her sister.
"We will," Beckett said.
"But Daddy and everyone else?" the little girl said.
"We're going to have a quick bite," Castle assured them. "And I'm sure your gram and Alexis will have lunch while they're at the spa."
"But we'll have dinner together," Beckett then said. When her husband glanced at her she said, "I could tell she wanted that."
"It's fun when we eat together," Julia replied with a smile as she stood up after Castle had taken her sister out. She stepped into the towel her mother was holding out to her and let her help dry her saying, "We have to get ready don't we?"
"You do," Beckett said. "But you still need to say goodnight so that might take a while."
Nodding, though she still wasn't happy about going to sleep, Julia dressed once she was dry and brushed her teeth with her sister. When they stepped out into the bedroom where everyone was waiting she was about to open her mouth to speak when her mother put her hand on her shoulder to stop her. Glancing up at her parents she soon saw why Beckett had done that as in the short walk out of the bathroom her little sister had fallen asleep. She smiled but didn't say anything as she followed them to Jim and Martha so they could say goodnight.
"Sweet dreams Julia," Martha said first to the little girl after she'd kissed Eliza. "We'll have breakfast together remember?"
"I know," Julia said, unable to help smiling as she couldn't help remember the ride she was going to take with her parents after that.
"You'll be dreaming of horses tonight darling, I can tell already," Martha said teasingly. She shared a kiss with her granddaughter and said, "I love you."
"Love you too Gram," Julia replied. She hugged her grandmother a final time before going to Jim and hugging him tightly. "Night Grandpapa, I love you."
"I love you too honey," he replied, embracing her as well. "Sweet dreams."
After she had shared a kiss with him Julia watched her grandparents leave to head to their rooms and she turned to her parents and sister. "My turn?" she asked.
"After we say goodnight to Eliza," Beckett said, looking with her as Alexis was leaning over the bed.
Once his daughter had given the toddler a gentle kiss on the forehead Castle leaned over and did the same murmuring, "I love you sweetheart."
When she was next to lean over Eliza, Beckett carefully brushed her hair back over her forehead and said, "Sweet dreams Eliza I love you too, so much." Pressing a kiss she then stood and turned to Julia who was hugging Alexis, watching the two exchange I love yous before they kissed each other's cheeks.
"Come on," Castle said, helping her up onto the bed since Eliza was in her customary spot in the middle. He sat next to his middle daughter and wrapped his arms around her telling her quietly, "I know you want to ride but you should get some rest before that."
"I know already Daddy," Julia replied, smiling widely up at him. She giggled softly and said, "I love you," hugging him while she said that.
"I love you Julia," Castle said as he embraced her as tightly as he could.
When he'd finally let go of her the little girl sighed but then smiled at her mother who took his place. She leaned against her mother as Castle went around the bed to say goodnight to her sister. "I'm glad you had fun too Mommy," she commented.
"Oh?" Beckett asked in slight amusement; keeping her voice down as well. She glanced back at Eliza and asked, "You didn't think I would?"
Still smiling Julia told her, "I did but we always are at the beach at home."
"You didn't think of the fact I love you and I don't care where we are," Beckett said, rubbing her arm.
"It was like that there? Even at the beach?" Julia asked in wonder.
"Mmm-hmm," Beckett said easily.
"Oh good," Julia replied, hugging her as tightly as she could. "I love you Mommy."
"I love you too sweetie," Beckett said. She shared a kiss with her oldest before standing up and helping her under the sheet, tucking her in carefully. "Sweet dreams," she whispered before caressing her forehead. She went to her husband; after saying goodnight to Alexis; and then left with him after a last glance to make sure the girls were fine.
Going up in the elevator to their room Castle wrapped his arm around his wife's waist as she leaned her head against his shoulder. "Tired?" he asked, startled to realize they were going to very soon be alone and afraid she was too tired to continue from where they'd had to stop that morning.
"No, just…" Beckett started to say when the elevator doors opened. She then stood up straight and looking at her husband said, "Ready."
Castle stared after her as she walked out of the elevator car for so long that he was nearly left in there before he threw himself through the closing doors. He had to virtually run down the hall after his wife as he had the key to their room and he said, "Don't do that, please."
Beckett didn't reply to that, merely smiled at him as he was unlocking the door. "It's fun you know."
"I realize that but I don't know what floor I would have gone on," Castle said, following her into the room. He sighed in pleasure as the door was soon locked behind them and he saw she had suddenly stopped. "Good, so we're even," he said when she turned to him and he could see her sudden surprise.
Shooting him a look Beckett went over to the couch where in front of it on the coffee table were strawberries and two glasses of champagne. "When did you order this?" she asked him, sitting down.
"Can I?" Castle asked, referring to his blazer. At her nod he removed it and then sat with her telling her honestly, "When we came back to change for dinner. Luckily the flowers seem to be okay."
"The petals," Beckett said in amusement though she couldn't deny that she was touched by the coral colored petals that were on the turned down bed. "I have to wonder if they get requests to do that often," she couldn't help muse as she took the glass that Castle handed over to her.
"Very likely," he said. "Though I was asked if I wanted it in a shape."
"Thank you for declining that," Beckett said. "It makes me wonder how you knew I wouldn't really want that."
"A heart seemed too cheesy for you and after that what shape would honestly have worked?" Castle replied. "A Celtic knot?" He shook his head saying, "That and the fact you tell me you don't like having them on the bed."
Beckett looked thoughtful for a moment before she tapped her glass against his and murmured, "To tonight," as he had said the same first. After she'd taken a sip she commented, "Maybe I've changed my mind."
Looking at her Castle could see that she was serious and he reached over, taking her free hand off of her thigh and turned it over, pressing his lips against the inside of her wrist. He kept his eyes on her as she visibly trembled in front of him and he murmured something in Irish before he sat up straight and leaned over at the same time as her.
Trembling inwardly at his heated words of, "I want you on those roses," Beckett parted her lips to Castle's tongue the second it passed along her lower one. She couldn't help moaning softly against him before dueling against him hungrily. She felt his hands on her back, sliding over her through her dress and she felt suddenly frustrated by it as it was obviously in the way. When they shortly parted she sighed and said, "I kind of wish you hadn't gotten those," as he was leaning over to pick up a berry.
Handing it to her Castle said, "I was tempted to feed them to you but I'm thinking we should hold off on that."
"Maybe," Beckett said absently, holding the strawberry and studying it a little closely. She looked to her husband and then turned to the table to set the berry aside. She slid her arms around his neck and leaned her forehead against his murmuring, "I want you."
"Not yet," Castle said, suddenly hating himself for deciding he had to work their desire up as high as he could before he took her. "Sorry," he had to say when she pulled away and looked at him.
Not replying to that Beckett realized what he was thinking and said, "How long has this been on your mind," moving her hand to his face and gently running her fingertips along his jaw.
"Since I watched you get dressed this morning," Castle admitted. He expected a pervert comment; or something along that line; but was startled when she merely smiled. "Oh," he then said in comprehension. "You caught me doing that."
"I noticed," Beckett corrected him. She moved as he pulled on her hand to sit on his lap and she looked on when he unbuckled her heels around her ankles and she kicked them off. "Do you know how you're going to do that?" she asked him once she was settled, leaning against him.
"I may," Castle began. "Have some ideas but I'm also thinking that maybe I should see how things go." He leaned over the best he could to grab a strawberry and then turned to his wife, feeding it to her.
Beckett ate the berry and then watched him finish off the rest of it before she pressed her cheek to his saying, "Do you want to finish them?"
Glancing at the plate Castle wondered whose idea it had been to fill the plate as much as it was and he shook his head. "No, did you?" he asked though he knew the answer already.
Smiling for a moment Beckett leaned into her husband at the same time he came towards her and they were very quickly embroiled in a rough kiss. She ran her hands over his hair before she could feel him again stroking at her back. She ended the kiss a second after that and looked at him before she slid off his lap and faced away from him.
Taking the unspoken hint Castle reached up to the zipper and pulled it down before pressing his lips against her back as it was exposed to him. He then stroked her with his fingertips before pulling away to wait for her to turn around. He let out a grunt when she nearly threw herself at him, her arms around his neck tightly before he leaned back against the arm on the side. He put his hands on her back, knowing why she had initiated that kiss since that was always his first reaction to her.
If Beckett had known what her husband was thinking about she would have agreed with him completely. But at that moment she couldn't think of it or anything else as he was trying to pull her dress forward off her shoulders. When he moved away from her she watched him taking it off her before pushing the bodice down until she was bare from the waist up. "That was first in your plans wasn't it?" she asked, still feeling her lips swollen as she spoke.
"If I could," Castle corrected. "I didn't know what you were wearing." He didn't add anything else to that, instead turning her so she was in his spot. He made her lay back against the arm and once he was sure she was comfortable he kissed her on the lips. He did that a few times, trying not to linger before he finally pulled himself away and was about to move down before he paused. He wasn't sure how she knew but when he pulled away she was moving up after him, reaching for the comb in her hair. He set it down after taking it from her; holding her wrists as he did so; and then turned back to her before reaching up to take out the pins holding up the still slightly damp locks, staring at them as they cascaded around her shoulders and over them.
Cupping his face in her hands as he visibly shuddered in pleasure watching that Beckett kissed him deeply on the lips before she murmured his name when they parted. She lay back before he could direct her, startled when he suddenly started kissing her neck as she'd expected him to begin much lower. But she didn't try to argue that as the pleasure that rushed through in the form of heat at his touch was intense almost immediately. She slid her fingers over his hair again, that time letting her nails rake over his scalp before he was suddenly trailing his lips down her collarbone and then over to the hollow of her throat. Moaning his name she tried to watch him slide down to her sternum, though she couldn't see him just feel him.
Once he was there Castle pulled away enough so he could breathe heavily and then reached up with both hands, burying his right elbow in the back of the couch for support. With that done he started to caress her breasts, watching her closely so he would be able to see her reaction and so he could judge what she wanted. He couldn't help smiling as she shifted under him and bit her lower lip; repressing her desire becoming vocal. "I never thought," he told her. "You'd be this sensitive."
Beckett exhaled on a laugh and shook her head saying, "No one tried to figure that out… at least not as… not as meticulously as you." She raised her hand to his face and caressed his cheek with her fingertips telling him, "And that is a reason why I'm like this right now."
"Half naked on a couch?" Castle asked.
"No," Beckett said simply. When her husband asked her what in his expression she raised her head enough to capture his lips and murmured, "Giving myself to you fully."
Hearing her desire in that explanation Castle felt for a moment like they'd stepped into a desert. The room had to have heated up at least twenty degrees as he leaned over to kiss her that time. But he knew it was just his reaction to what was her unspoken request; her desire for him to fuck her. "I love you," he said seriously, staring intently into her eyes when they finally managed to part.
"I love you too," Beckett whispered as he was bowing his head again. She couldn't stop the heavy cry of pleasure that escaped her lips and she reached for the back of his head as he proceeded to take her breasts with his mouth and hands together, never stopping. She became heated as he kept doing something that she enjoyed, something that set off a shockwave of joy that transmitted into more heat. She wasn't sure how she wasn't suffocating in her dress; though half of it was off; and she didn't spend all that much time bothering to figure that out as Castle was doing a very good job distracting her. Eventually he was pulling away and she looked up at him, concerned for a moment at the expression on his face. "What's wrong?" she asked as he was studying her form.
"Here," Castle said, helping her sit up. He handed her her glass of champagne and took his to drink a large gulp before he noticed her merely sipping at her drink. He looked down into the glass at what was left in his then and said, "I want to put you back in that dress."
"I had a feeling," Beckett replied, taking another drink; a slightly longer one that time as she couldn't deny the thought of her husband doing that was more than a little erotic to her. "It was either that or just rip off everything and take me right here."
"And waste the bed?" Castle commented, smirking slightly. He waited until they had both finished before standing and then helping her up to help her back into her dress, zipping the back. "Ready?" he asked, wrapping his arms around her tightly.
Beckett kissed him on the lips gently before she tried to pull away without a word in reply. A smile spread across them for a moment when he wouldn't let her move and she took his kiss before they went to the bed together. Standing next to it she wrapped her arms around him as he held her close and they proceeded to hungrily kiss as something seemed to tell her; and him as well she could tell; that they didn't need to hold back anymore which made a thrill pass through her as she was more than ready to experience everything she could that her husband had in mind the rest of the night.
Parting slowly from her Castle wasn't surprised when his wife easily moved at his touch as he made her turn around. But it made his heart continue to race as he was anticipating still. He was anticipating her and making her lose control, calling his name as she did so. He had to shake himself as he was imagining that and he hurriedly started to unzip her but schooled himself to go slowly until he had the back open again, much further than he'd done before. "Love," he said, unsure what he wanted to do then so he decided to let her choose. When she looked over her shoulder at him he had his answer and carefully pushed the dress off her shoulders, helping her get it off to slide to the floor. He picked it back up though before it could stay there for long and then left her.
Beckett tried not to smile too widely at the sight of him draping the dress carefully onto the bench on the end of the bed and she wrapped her arms around herself before he was coming back to her. As he got close she stepped away from him and then climbed on the bed, lying back in the middle among the rose petals that she could feel against her back and legs as she watched him join her quickly. "Not what you were planning?" she asked as she stopped him from getting on top of her by getting his tie loose before she tossed it over the side of the bed.
"Not exactly but I think it works still," Castle said, helping her unbutton his shirt next with one hand. He kept the other on the bed to support himself and then got on his knees next to her as she was going down to his trousers. He threw the shirt to join the tie and then had to move to take off his trousers next to where the rest of his clothes were. He rejoined her and crushed his lips to hers as well as his body, deliberately making her feel him as he wanted her to know just how aroused she made him. When they parted he pulled away from her and had her raise her hips as he pulled off her panties eagerly though they joined the small pile next to the bed without a second glance from him.
Reaching out to her husband as he was still leaning over Beckett slipped her hand underneath his boxers, taking his erection in hand. "So you weren't kidding," she told him.
"How could I be kidding?" Castle almost wheezed out as he was stuck where he was by her touch. "I didn't say anything."
"You let me know," Beckett told him simply as she cupped her hand over the tip of him for a moment. She took her hand out and waited for him to get rid of the last bit of fabric separating them and took him into her arms and between her legs as he came back to her. Taking his kiss then she moaned softly in joy before turning her attention to playfully fighting against him before they parted with simultaneous gasps. She tried not to laugh as she told him, "You never can do that… oh, I see why now." Looking down at him she then saw he wasn't able to enter her without using her hand or his own to guide himself as he was so aroused he was curved up against his stomach. "That wasn't painful?" she asked while she was carefully tugging him to her.
Castle wasn't able to answer that as he was just sliding within her and was trying to keep himself from losing it at the way she felt more than prepared for him. He still didn't answer when she let go of him and he was slamming against her, watching the way she threw her head back to call his name in pleasure at that. He couldn't help feel a little proud but quickly grabbed her right leg to place it on his shoulder, her left foot pressing against his chest soon after. "This won't be… long," he commented, watching her to wait for any kind of protest.
"I know which is good because you remember last time we… oh god, Rick!" Beckett cried out in pleasure as her husband started to thrust. He was deep and she was reaching for the sides of the pillow under her head, trying to take what he was making her feel. The constant shock of him entering her and pulling back out so hurriedly so soon was causing her to try to recover from the abruptness of it. She was having a little trouble at first but shortly she became slightly accustomed to him but only slightly as he was adding to the friction between them by grabbing her hand. She was startled when he made her brush her fingers over her own clit and then shook her head. "It'll be… be too much," she breathed out heavily as he seemed to angle his hips a different way suddenly in response to her.
"I won't let you go yet," Castle somehow managed to say without pausing for breath. "Not until I'm ready for it." He wasn't surprised when she dug her nails into his arm at that but shook his head. "This once," he said.
Her laugh was an exhalation and Beckett tried to gather a little more air for her protest but soon she stopped and told him, "It's never just once."
"Because I love seeing you… like this," Castle said honestly, feeling her between them starting to stroke at her clit. "This once Kate… and I swear you're not going to be… dominated."
Beckett could easily believe him because whenever he did exert himself to control her a little more she found he was never without something to make her feel that she was in fact being worshiped in some way. So she didn't say anything else and concentrated on trying to continue to move against him the best she could. She moaned his name softly as he managed to reach in between them to start caressing her breasts, the sensation adding to the already building heat between her legs. She shifted and nearly groaned in relief when he moved her legs while she moved her hand out of the way of him. He had to stop to do that and she stopped touching her clit at the same time, making her a little irritated before she was wrapping her legs around his waist. Luckily that didn't take too long and they were soon moving rapidly against one another once more. Since she could do so then she ran her fingers through his hair, making sure that time her nails raked at his scalp. She could feel him shuddering against her every time she did and didn't stop until he was kissing her and hard.
Though he was enjoying her touch immensely Castle felt slight relief when his wife had stopped and he slipped his tongue between her lips in response to that. Their duel became a little heated when Beckett tried to hurriedly overpower him, trying to push their tongues into his mouth. At first he resisted before he allowed her to succeed, knowing that he had to give her that at least as he wasn't planning on letting her up from her prone position until they were finished. Ripping himself away from her with a gasp of air he lowered his head immediately and started to kiss at her neck, searching her pulse though he knew where it was. He started to nibble at the point where it raced below her skin before the feel of the friction between them changed a little in response to his hips angling up just before he started to pull away from her. It was a fresh shock to his system and judging by the soft cries coming out of his wife's mouth it was for her too. He continued that but had to move from her neck, knowing he was very swiftly pushing them to the edge. He wanted to linger but he was being influenced by their pace, his lips hungry and rough against each mound though he was trying to tell himself to slow down. But when he heard Beckett moaning his name as she started to writhe under him he found he had her permission to continue. Though shortly after that he moved to take her right nipple in between his lips, his mouth watering at the taste of her silky skin under his tongue which spurred him to continue as her nails were back on his scalp, their hips slamming together discordantly.
Beckett wasn't sure why everything her husband was doing to her wasn't pushing her the last bit she needed to go flying over the edge. But she couldn't complain at the added time to feel everything he was causing her to sense in her body. He was rough inside her, their friction starting to become erratic as he was having a hard time maintaining his thrusting motion upwards. Though even with that it was making the pleasure increase as it made each jolt of electricity that was her reaction different. She wasn't sure how long he was at her breasts but soon he was at her lips and they were kissing again, though that time not dueling as they'd been before. She allowed him control as his right hand was reaching in between them, stroking and touching what he could and making her feel that in the motion his desire for her. It made her tremble and she turned her head back and forth telling him, "Oh… Rick, please I can't… I need to feel you making me come. I won't… just let me come!"
Having what he wanted then though he had been trying to let it happen on her time Castle kissed her and thrilled in the feel of her return of that kiss, reaching up to her face to stroke her cheek. When he pulled away he murmured her name and then told her, "Don't hold back love, I swear after this you can do whatever you want to me. Just let me hear you begging me to fuck you again."
That and her husband's sudden attempt to get deeper within her were the last things that Beckett needed to break her and she allowed it to happen willingly. Undulating underneath his body as she lost control of herself she cried out, "Oh yes, please don't stop Rick. I can… I can't… stop." She wasn't sure why she was trying to talk since that never really worked and soon her words slipped into just repeating her husband's name as many times as she could. She was a little distracted by his sudden climax that she felt and heard as he called her name before burying his face into her neck and saying it there. She had her nails in his shoulders, trying to hold on to the last of what she could call control, his pleasure in her so evident and affecting her so greatly she skirted the edge of unconsciousness as they seemed to be thrown into a second orgasm at nearly the same time. Things literally became a blur as the waves of ecstasy joined the cadence of her husband's call of her name and she was half expecting to get off a third time. But finally everything slowed and then eventually came to a stop before she slumped on the bed, breathing heavily as Castle thrust into her roughly a few more times. Holding onto him tightly she murmured to him, "You got what you wanted?"
Groaning as he needed a little more time to recover Castle replied, "I did. What about you?"
"I will," Beckett couldn't help tease him. She wasn't surprised when her husband didn't fall for that and she raised her head at the same time she pushed on the back of his neck until he met her lips. The kiss was sensuous but it lingered as well and when they parted she moved with him so he was in her place on the bed. "You were serious?"
"Putting you like this I think so…" Castle said before trailing off as he ran his right hand up and down her thigh.
Beckett watched him watching his own fingers as he soon deviated over to the inside of her thigh. She trembled slightly as the touch was swift to set off a rush of heat through her body and then reached down to take his hand, pulling it up between her legs until his first two fingertips were against her clit. As he started to rub her she bit her lower lip and let the pleasure soon take over. She had been able to tell the entire time that her husband was ready to start so as soon as she felt she herself was prepared for it she began to move, rocking against him. She closed her eyes tightly at the sensation of them moving together again and she bit her lip a second time before placing her hands on her husband's stomach, moving a little faster with the extra leverage that provided. She soon opened her eyes when his hands slid down to her ass, cupping it as she held his gaze. The intensity of his blue eyes nearly made her breathless but she was soon nodding to him, trying to rock her body before he slapped her, making her shudder visibly at the sensation.
"Fuck," was all Castle found he could say in response to that. He squeezed her again and then started to move her though he knew the control was to her. He just liked the idea that if he ever wanted to he could stop her; not that he was planning on doing that. Instead he just pretended he could move her before he stopped and moved his hands up to the small of her back. He was about to bend his knees behind her to help him move faster but instead he was being pulled up by the hand. He grunted at the sensation of them having to stop for that but as soon as he was sitting up and her arms were around him they were beginning to move together at nearly the same time. He kissed her passionately once they had their rhythm back to where it'd been before and took the time to run his hands all over her body wherever he could reach. It was in part a distraction, the sensation of them moving together never more enticing than it was at that moment. He leaned down and kissed at her neck and shoulders when they needed to breathe, murmuring her name and what he wanted to do to her in Irish; the fire raging in his body from her taking over.
Beckett trembled for a brief instant in her husband's arms at his words but she wanted them to become true and she said that to her him in her joy as he reached up to cup her breasts. She looked on as he caressed them gently and then leaned down to press his lips against them. "Here," she told him pulling her to him so he could go down to her chest. But instead he was tangling his fingers through her hair to cup the back of her head and she let him gently pull back before he was starting to suck on her pulse again. Her heavy breathing soon became a moan as he became rougher and she knew that he wasn't going to stop for some time. "Stop, please," she finally had to say, things beginning to be too much. It shocked her when all of a sudden he did so, completely, which forced her to do the same.
Holding her against him Castle pressed his cheek against hers before whispering to her, not surprised when she quickly shook her head. He kissed her cheek and then captured her lips, not surprised to soon feel her moving against him. He nearly breathed out his surprise into her mouth but quickly recovered and moved away from her to press his forehead against hers. "What do you want Kate?" he asked, his speech slightly shaky though he couldn't fathom why exactly.
"Just you Rick… just you," Beckett said, saying the last two words in a moan as his hands were starting to roam over her form. She squeezed her eyes shut tightly in her pleasure, murmuring his name a few times as he knew where he needed to touch to elicit that type of response from her. Eventually he was back at her breasts, touching and caressing them until she stopped abruptly. When he looked at her to protest she already had her strength back and saw that instead of being cowed by her look, he was aroused. "Fuck, I married a pervert," was all she was able to say before her husband was grabbing the back of her head and kissing her hard again. When she started to move again she decided she'd had enough of stopping and she knew her husband was already under her thrall. She rocked against him that time instead of using her knees to move in an up and down motion and while they were kissing took the chance to let her fingers roam his body. She started at his shoulders, going down from them to his chest where she fingered at his nipples, feeling him breaking away from her to stare at her.
The way his wife's pupils were dilated made Castle realize the extent of her desire for him so he didn't really say anything, just that he loved her before they were leaning in to kiss again. It took little time for them to find an extra push to move faster at the same time, things building up as time passed. The feel of her lithe body moving around him was something that was prevalent to him and he tried to keep that in mind but also think of something else to prevent him from reaching the end before she did. He wasn't sure what was running through his head besides her, it was all too fast for him to grasp the details. But they were continuing, touching one another, kissing and she even commanded him a few times to slap her. With that last addition he had no idea why he wasn't falling into his climax but didn't try to explain it to himself in his mind. Instead he focused everything he had on his wife and soon felt the way their bodies were slick against each other as their breathing grew heavier with each sharp thrust that made their hips smack together satisfyingly.
Beckett wondered where exactly she had the energy to keep up with her husband after their exhausting bout before. But since that couldn't be answered she didn't really trouble herself to think of it for long. Instead she moved with him harder and faster she hoped before he was crushing her against his chest as they stared into each other's eyes. After the first few times her nipples brushed against his chest she lost it, not even able to warn him as her back arched in his hands. She cried out his name once before it became a quieter chant and she was holding onto him again for dear life. The waves of rapture snaked through every inch of her until she had to be sure she was literally on fire. His orgasm following added to that and she wondered if it was possible to burn in pain when there was nothing but pleasure within her. She didn't burn though, only throbbed as her body slowed down and when she had ceased she had to hold her husband tighter as he gave her a few rough thrusts before he fell back to the bed. Both of them breathing harshly she realized he was throbbing too so she reached for him, kissing him deeply.
"You're going to kill me Kate," Castle whispered to his wife though his voice was laden with pleasure.
"You'll do the same to me," Beckett answered easily as they moved so he slid out of her. She pulled him with her as she lay on her back and once he was within her again she took his lips with hers, kissing him hard as they began to make love, waiting to see if they would soon be overcome by their passion; which they shortly would as their bodies entwined easily and familiarly.
The sound of heavy breathing was filling the room but neither Castle nor Beckett seemed to notice as the latter was kissing her husband's fingers before lying back on his shoulder. He took the kiss she then gave him and kept it going for as long as possible until they slowly parted for more air.
"I love you Kate," Castle told her as they pressed their foreheads together.
"I love you too Rick," Beckett replied before she pressed her cheek to his shoulder again. After some silence between them she asked, "What time is it?"
"I have no idea," Castle said honestly. "I don't think it matters," he told her as he didn't really want to check. "But I'm sure we should get to sleep."
"We're riding early with Julia," Beckett reminded him. "You know you and Dad have never played golf alone together," she told him as she pulled the sheet over their still slightly moist bodies a little higher.
"You want me to tell you what he says?" Castle asked.
Smiling for a moment at that Beckett then said, "If he asks how we're doing let me know."
"I think he's surer about us than my mother," Castle commented. "But I'll let you know." He soon heard his wife yawning and leaned over to kiss her forehead saying, "You were incredible tonight."
"Hmm so were you," Beckett replied, unable to help recalling her husband during their last bout of lovemaking. "I almost thought you were trying to push me through the headboard and the wall."
"Into the next room? I don't think so," Castle said though he was very aware she was teasing him for a reaction. He moved then so he could kiss her and he did so as deeply as he could while she held onto him tightly, both of them groaning slightly in pleasure before they focused more on the kiss. When they parted to breathe he said, "You set things off this morning."
"I was wondering if you remembered. And it was actually yesterday morning," Beckett pointed out to him.
"It was," Castle replied. "And there's still this morning to go."
With that Castle and Beckett kissed deeply again as if to make sure both understood what they desired. When they parted the room heard their quick goodnights and they soon were wrapped up in one another. They nodded off to sleep soon after that with the throb of their lips holding promise as the echo of their lovemaking reminded them again of why their addiction to solely one another was something they would spend a lifetime indulging in without any inclination to want to stop doing.
