Was going to post this sooner but I thought I should check it more and stuff. I am amazed at the amount of people following this story! And in such a short period of time too. I love every single one of you! I appreciate all of the comments! I'm going to personally reply to every one of them soon so you will get some answers to the questions you have.

Someone asked me in which season this was set since they aren't together. I had to think about this to be honest. When I first started writing the story, I didn't have any season in mind. I just was so bored of the post-always stories going round that I decided that there should be a fun story out there without any angst of post shooting. I would say this story is based around season 3, somewhere after TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA but not after KNOCKOUT.

Sorry for the long A.N. on with the story!

When Kate arrived back at the precinct, she found Castle talking to the boys while playing what she assumed was angry birds on his phone. He had a big smile on his face. God she found that cute. His smile made him look like a 5 year old on Christmas. It was amazing how he had so many looks just by his facial expressions.

Espo must have saw her because he said something to Castle while doing a slight nod towards the elevator. Castle turned and his smile grew bigger. Can she really do that to him? He jumped off from the chair he was sitting in and rushed towards her.

"so…..you're coming then?" His smile was genuine but she could see he was still a bit worried, thinking she was playing a joke on him and getting his hopes up.

"yeah I'm coming Castle." She gave him a slight smile of her own.

"Great! You won't regret it! This is going to be so much more fun now that you're coming!" If they were alone she's sure he would be jumping up and down right now. He excitedly started typing frantically on his phone. She was about to ask when he stopped her.

"well, you have to come to the loft for dinner tonight!" He stated like it was the most obvious thing.

"I don't know Castle. I don't want to intrude." She looked down, rubbing her arm slightly worried. Martha and Alexis were great but she didn't know how they felt about her.

"you won't! mother told me to tell you herself" he really wanted her to come. He and his mother really did think alike. Martha really liked Kate. They haven't met a lot of times but Martha could see that she was good for Rick. Even though she puts him in danger more times than she can count.

After seeing that Kate still felt conscious, he put his hand next to his mouth like he was about to tell her a secret and he said in a loud whisper "….don't worry she's not cooking." This made Kate laugh slightly and she looked up to him smiling broadly "well if you sure I won't intrude."

"I'm sure" he smiled warmly at her.

"then I'll come" her smile still in place.

"great! Okay be there around 7." He stated while walking backwards towards the elevator.

"I'll be there." Still looking, feeling slightly giddy, sitting down.

"I'll be waiting" he smirked as the elevator doors closed, making him disappear.

She couldn't help the slight giggle that come out of her mouth.

"wow! Beckett giggling. I think Castle left too soon." Esposito smirked, slowly walking to Kate's desk.

"oh shut up. It wasn't a giggle. AND it wasn't because of Castle. I just remembered something." She wasn't convincing enough. She was sure, and she couldn't look them in the eye.

"oh yeah? What did you remember?" He knew she was lying.

Kate said nothing. She couldn't after all. She was trying to think funny things but none came to mind.

"yeah that's what I thought. Chillax Kate. It's just me."

Ryan walked in a second later and went to Kate's desk.

"hey what's going on?"

"Katie's gotta crush" Esposito automatically exclaimed, pouting.

"speaking of which, where is Castle anyway?"

Esposito laughed and started to walk away.

Blushing, Kate still said nothing, shaking her head.

So another chapter done. Did you like? Did you hate? Please tell me because this is your story as it is mine haha that's why it's called fanfiction. Made from fans. Is there something I can improve? Are the characters a bit AU? 'cause that's my worst fear. Anyway. This was going to be a longer chapter but I didn't want it to be super long so I'm breaking this chapter into 3 parts. Next chapter will be uploaded as soon as it's written, which won't be long because I already have a clear idea what I want for the next chapter.

As always, I look forward to hear from you guys, and I'll see you next chapter :D
