Chapter 15

As Kate sat on the exam table waiting on her doctor she couldn't help but think about the last time she was in this room. She and Josh had always been pretty careful when it came to sex, but last year she did have a pregnancy scare. Josh had freaked out on her when she told him that she had missed her period, but the test had come back negative and all was right between them. Since then they had always used condoms. As Kate sat there thinking about birth control and how important it was it dawned on her that she and Josh hadn't used a condom the last time they had sex. It was rushed and very emotion driven, and she couldn't believe that it was just occurring to her. Her mind started to race, thinking about her period and when she should start. She had always been a little irregular but after looking at her calendar she realized that she should have started sometime last week.

The door cracked open and Dr. Lee gave a small knock before asking if she could enter. As soon as Dr. Lee made eye contact with Kate she knew something was wrong. Dr. Lee had been Kate's OBGYN since she was 16 and she started having sex.

Dr. Lee walked straight over to Kate, placing her hand on her shoulder, "Kate, what's wrong?"

"I think I'm pregnant!" She whispered, a single tear escaping her eye.

She went to brush it away immediately, trying not to show any emotion.

"Okay, so you came in today for a preganacy test?"

"No, actually I came to be put on birth control and while I sat here I just started thinking about my period, and it hasn't started yet. I think im pregnant, and I don't know what I'm going to do about it."

"Well Kate, it's not like you don't have a supportive boyfriend, right? I mean you and Josh have been together for years, you all would be fine."

"We broke up."

Dr. Lee didn't quite know what to say so she began to rub small circles over Kate's back.

"Okay, well I'm sure he would still be supportive. It would be his, right?"

"Yeah, it would be, but I have a new boyfriend now, and I would lose him in a heartbeat. We haven't been dating long and I've already put him through enough."

"Okay, well stop freaking out, everything is going to be okay Kate. We are going to do a urine test and see what the results say before we freak out anymore, deal?"

Kate nodded, because words were hard to come by right now.

About thirty minutes later Dr. Lee came back into the exam room where Kate still sat on the table. She had given her urine sample and they had taken it to test it.

"Well, guess what? It was negative. See, there was no reason to panic, you're most definitely not pregnant. There could be many reasons you're late. Like you said you and Josh broke up, and stress is the number one reason women miss their period or have irregular periods. However, today we are here for birth control and that will solve all of our problems. You won't have to worry about getting pregnant, and it will also help regulate your period. I also recommend that if you do plan on being sexually active with someone else, which I assume you either are or plan on being, use condoms as well. Being completely safe is always the best way to go."

"That's why I'm here. I mean he already has a daughter. We haven't, ya know, had sex yet. We wanted to make sure that we were completely safe before we even took that step."

"Good. You're making the right choice by being prepared. I just want you to remember that birth control can be very effective if used properly, which means you take it every single day, around the same time, and continue to use condoms as an extra precaution. I know you're only 19 and having a baby is not something that you are wanting right now. I don't know anything about your boyfriend, but do not let him ejaculate inside you under any circumstances if he is not wearing a condom."

"I understand, and he is responsible. He is the one that suggested I come in and be put on birth control so that we didn't just have to rely on condoms. "

"Okay, well I will write a prescription, and remember to read all of the instructions so that you understand all the precautions and how to properly use it.

Kate felt extreme relief after leaving her doctor. She wasn't pregnant, and she wouldn't have to worry about getting pregnant any time soon. She was excited about being intimate with Rick, but even happier that they would be completely safe.

Later that night Kate went to the loft for dinner. Rick and Alexis had invited her over for home made pizza and a movie. It was Alexis' turn to choose and they were watching "The Jungle Book"

It didn't take long before Alexis was passed out on Ricks chest. He carried her up to bed, tucking her in, and kissing her goodnight.

He made his way back to the couch with two glasses of wine and took a seat next to Kate on the couch.

"How was your doctors appointment?" he asked, placing his arm around her shoulders and pulling her in tight to his body.

She took her hand placing it on his thigh and began to rub small soothing circles, "It was good, everything is great and she put me on birth control. So we have the all clear on my end."

"All clear, eh?" he teased, leaning in to pepper a few kiss over her cheek and down her jaw, sneaking his lips onto her neck.

She turned meeting his lips with her own and opening her mouth to allow his tongue access.

As they broke away, Ricks eyes widened in a suggestive way.

"I'm ready Rick, if you're ready, then I'm ready." She said, placing soft kisses on his lips over and over again.

"I'm ready, too. So should we take this to somewhere a little more private?" he asked.

Kate nodded seductively, not breaking eye contact. She stood from the couch, extending her hand to him to lead him into his room.

As they made their way through the door, Kate went straight for the bed, sitting on the edge. Rick made his way towards her, dropping to his knees in front of her to help her undress. He started with her shoes and socks, and as he started to unbutton her pants, she fell backwards on the bed, making it easier for him to rid her of her pants. As he pulled her pants down over her hips he placed small kisses on her pubic both. Kate was already starting to feel the tension build in her middle and all she wanted was for him to touch her more.

After tossing her pants behind him, he kissed his way up her right leg, taking it in his hand and pulling it over his left shoulder. He then took his thumbs, hooking them into the side of her underwear and pulling them down her legs, lifting her leg off his shoulder to completely pull them off. He kissed his way up her thigh, stopping when he got to her center; he ran one finger through her folds, and then two.

"Baby, you're so wet already."

"Castle, stop talking."

He decided to listen, so he took his fingers and slid them through her heat a few more times before he plunged one finger in and began to use his tongue on her, after a few moments he thrust another finger inside, and the sound of pleasure she let out only increased his intensity. He went to work, pumping his fingers into her repetitively as he used his tongue on her clit, occasionally replacing it with his thumb to rub small circles over her swollen nub.

"Castle, I'm about to come."

She took one of her hands and ran it through his hair, increasing his intensity and right before she came he removed his fingers from her heat and plunged his tongue inside her. That's all it took and Kate was pulsating around his tongue, letting out a scream, that she had to silence with her own hand. He continued to rub small circles over her clit as she came down.

When he noticed that her breathing had slowed, he stood and started to work on the buttons of his shirt. Kate laid there watching him undress, still coming down from her orgasm. She began to work her way up the bed, positioning herself so that she was laying with her head on the pillow. She watched him rid himself of all of his clothes and then he slid in beside her. He pulled her in for a kiss that she broke quickly. Moving down the bed she positioned herself between his legs. Taking his length in her hand she began to slowly twist and pump, after a few slow pumps she took him into her mouth slowly working in unison with her hand to create a quicker pace. He placed his hand on the top of her head and began to guide her movements. Kate's eyes were locked on his, and he had never been so turned on in his life. He could feel his orgasm building, so he lifted her head from his shaft and pulled on her arms, pulling her up his body. She made her way up his body, straddling his hips, when their lips met.

Rick broke their lip lock to reach over into the bedside table to grab a condom. He pulled one out opening the package, but then Kate took it from his hands placing it at the tip of his shaft and rolling it down over him. He almost lost control just watching her take control. She then placed herself above his shaft, taking it in her hand and rubbing it through her heat one time before plunging down onto him.

"OH MY GOD" he said, his eyes slamming shut, "You feel so good."

Kate lifted herself, and then plunged back down, over and over, setting a fast pace for them. Ricks hands were gripping her hips tightly helping her movements. He couldn't help but use a little force to plunge into her every time, taking the intensity to another level.

"Oh my god, Rick, I'm about to…."

Before she could finish her sentence he had flipped them over, Kate now lay on her back, hips spread wide as he deepened their contact, thrusting harder into her every time.

"Wait for me." He said as he set a pace of short fast thrust, when he was almost there he took her hand in his, running them down her stomach to her swollen nerve bundle, and she led his fingers as they slowly circled her clit, catching her up. As soon as he felt her inner muscles begin to pulsate he let go, spilling inside of her. Collapsing on her chest, both of them trying to catch their breath. She rubbed her hands up and down his back, up into his hair, until he passed out on top of her. Eventually she passed out as well, not even bothering to move out from under him.

Vegas was amazing! I didn't want to leave the city or any of my friends. Sorry I didn't update much while I was gone, but now I am home and I will try to update every day again. Thanks for the kind reviews, and I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
