Back to Work
The forty - two sleeps as Beckett had told her youngest son. Her knee was completely healed and Beckett got the go ahead from the doctor to return to work. When she got in to the 54th that morning she had a full day ahead of her. She had a conference with the Chief of Police and the Police Commissioner as soon as they arrived. And that would be any minute. The bullpen was busy with detectives and uniforms working. The receiving officer downstairs had let Beckett know when the Chief and the Commissioner had arrived.
Beckett grabbed her phone and the portfolio file she had always carried around. She waited for her bosses to step off of the elevator.
Seconds later they did.
"Captain Beckett - Castle." the Chief said.
"Sir."
"Captain." the Commissioner said.
"Sir."
After the pleasantries had been exchanged Beckett escorted her bosses to the precinct's conference room.
Throughout the meeting; Beckett was a bit distracted. She had been receiving texts from Castle who was clearly bored. The texts were definitely on the provocative and salacious side. It had gone as far as Beckett not being able to set her phone down. That was partially due to the fact that Beckett was a bit afraid that her bosses would see one of the texts from Castle.
Once the meeting was over and her bosses had left; Beckett went to her office and called Castle.
During the call; Beckett had learned that Castle had nothing to do since James Royce was taking a nap and Castle had some time before the twins had to be picked up.
The duo spent the duration of the time that Castle had left before picking up the twins on the phone. Things got more salacious between them so Beckett closed the doors to her office so that the detectives and the uniforms couldn't overhear the conversation.
