Sorry it took me so long to update...band stuff.
Disclaimer: 8 am - still mad at him - he tried to act like nothin' happened; if I owned Castle, I wouldn't be cursing the name of my agent because I have to have a song to him in 24 hours, and I have nothing.
To your story...
Chapter 21
1:30 am; the time that Rick woke up. He had just finished in the bathroom and was heading back to bed, when he heard something moving downstairs. He walked quietly down the stairs to investigate. He saw something move and he bolted back up the stairs.
"Kate. Kate." Rick said quietly not wanting to alert the intruder that anyone was awake. But he didn't need to saw her name loudly because he knew, that with police training, came hypersensitivity to your surroundings.
Kate rolled over with her hand in a fist, ready to strike, but she saw that it was Rick. She lowered her hand and looked at the clock, "Rick it's 1:30. Why did you wake me up?"
Rick's face went from "I am freaking out" to "sorry", because he knew that Kate didn't sleep well, and that every time she did, he woke her. But it only stayed like that for a moment, "There's somebody downstairs."
Kate wasn't still completely awake so it took her a little longer to process what Rick just said, "Okay, so go check it out."
"But you don't understand. You're the one with the gun." he whined.
Kate let out a huge breath in frustration, "Oh my freakin' god. Take my damn gun and go check it out yourself." and Kate rolled over. Rick groaned, but Kate heard Rick open the drawer that her gun was in. She heard him pull it out, close the drawer, and click the safety off.
Rick walked down the stairs, trying to be as much like Kate as possible. He got closer to the sounds, he saw from the moonlight that there was a lump on the couch. She walked closer, pointed the gun, and pulled back the blanket. As the person rose of the couch, he screamed. Before he knew it, Kate was skidding to a stop next to him. A moment later, Kate was laughing, and so was the "intruder".
Kate turned on a light, and Rick took a closer look. Upon closer examination, he discovered that it was Lanie.
"That is not funny." Rick said defensively. "Did you hear yourself scream?" Kate asked. "If you had heard yourself scream, you'd be laughin' your ass off right about now." Lanie managed through the laughter.
"Glad you think it's so funny." and Rick stalked off. He went back to bed, and when he got there, he heard the two women still laughing. He shook his head, pulled the pillow over it, and went to sleep.
Sorry it's so short. I needed a little humor. If you guys have any ideas for a song about a guy cheating on his girlfriend, let me know please. I've been working on this song for three days now, with very little sleep. And to top it all off, my agent is being an ass. My life sucks right now.
Let me know if you think of anything please.
