Here's the next update :) Enjoy!

Chapter 20

A batch of waffles was being formed in the waffle maker. The loft was silent, except for the soft giggles that erupted from Kate's lips while Castles lips kissed down her neck, her back to the waffle maker on the counter, her writer pressed against her front, his hands roaming her waist and back, he softly bit her skin, and she hummed in delight.

"Don't you dare leave a mark. More than scarring me, you'll scar the kids."

He laughed and then kissed her lips.

"You're talking too much" he said.

She moaned, and he kissed her with all the love he could give. She was having a beautiful morning, her writer couldn't get enough of her today. She had to pull away and turn around to get the waffles out and put in a new batch, but he didn't want to stop.

So he put his arms around her and pushed her beautiful hair to the side to kiss her neck some more. She couldn't take it, he knew all too well that she lost all control over her body when he kissed her that way, yet he kept kissing, his hands getting more explorative on her waist.

She was partially grateful he was holding her because she was growing weak at the knees the more he kissed and spoke into her ear. He nibbled on her earlobe and she almost dropped the bowl of batter from her hands.

The minute she had set a new batch in and kept the bowl down, she turned around and grabbed his face, and clashed her lips against his, kissing him for all he was worth, he bucked his hips into hers and she ground against him.

A deep growl rose from his throat and she knew how turned on he was by all of this. She didn't know what was up with him, but ever since he was back last night, he's been hungry for her, needing her all the time.

"You sure did miss me a lot didn't you?" she asked.

"You don't know the half of it" he mumbled before attacking her lips again. His hand pulled open the tie of her robe to find the hem of his shirt she was wearing underneath. But that and her underwear was all she was wearing, so he let his hand wander under the shirt, to her hip, and then upwards.

"The girls will be down any moment" she gasped at his lips, his touch on her skin sending shivers down her spine.

"They aren't down yet" he said.

She chuckled at his lips and he pulled her hips flush against his, allowing her to feel what she had done to him yet again. And she moaned, softly. He smiled proudly at his success in getting her just as needy for him as he was for her.

But their early morning kitchen antics were interrupted when they heard Alexis and Avril's voice from upstairs. They were awake and coming to the kitchen.

"Quick! Cool it Castle!" she said, looking down at him, while she swiftly tied up her robe again and tried to settle her messed up hair. She needed to compose herself, and somehow make herself look like she wasn't just getting ready to fuck her husband on the kitchen floor.

He ducked down next to her. She looked down at him

"What are you doing?" she half whispered.

"Well, my plan was to surprise them wasn't it?"

"And this is your method? You want to jump up from behind the kitchen counter?" she gave him a sarcastic look.

"Yea" he said looking excited. She shook her head. This was going to be a sight. She leaned over the counter acting like everything was normal and sipped from her mug of coffee. The one Castle had prepared for her when they entered the kitchen this morning after a nice long shower. The one she let out a nice sexy moan for when she took her first sip, a moan that only made him want her more.

And that's when it had begun. His breakfast- make out session with her.

The two girls were chatting about something when they neared the kitchen counter and sat on the stools before it.

"Good morning mom." they greeted

"Good morning" she said with a warm smile.

"Did you two sleep well?"

"I know I did, I don't know about Alexis" Avril said as she poured a glass of orange juice for herself.

"I don't know, I couldn't sleep last night."

"What's wrong? Did you have a bad dream or something?" Kate asked.

"I did" and Alexis began to tell Avril and her mom about her nightmare, Kate was trying to pay attention, but that was getting harder to do. Castle was a little extra mischievous today, his hand was roaming up Kate's calf, and just skirting up to her thigh, with every move he kept going higher and she could do nothing about it but try and wriggle her leg to get him to stop.

She wanted to smile, but couldn't. Alexis was talking about a strange monster who was running after her and Avril and that wasn't something to be taken lightly. She was doing her best to keep her features schooled.

It was right when Alexis reached the part about the monster cornering them, that Castle popped up from beside Kate and yelled "hey you two!"

And Avril screamed, Alexis gasped and Kate covered her mouth to stifle her laughter, because Avril, on seeing something pop out from behind the kitchen counter had thought the best reflex move, or move of defense would be to thrown her glass of orange juice on whatever it was that had jumped out.

Kate stood there, shaking with laughter, watching as Rick, drenched in orange juice looked down at himself and back up at the girls with a dumbfounded look.

"Oh my God! DAD!" Alexis said out loud and then began laughing too.

"Why would you do such a thing?" Avril said, louder. And then suddenly, her fear was replaced by a sense of relief and she began laughing at her own action and at her dad, standing there with orange juice dripping down his face, his neck, and robe.

"Well, I like your method of defense Avril" He said.

"I'm sorry" she laughed and got up from her stool to go get a few napkins. Alexis came to him and said "I want to hug you, but Avril just made sure I won't"

Rick had an idea then, "Oh come on, your old man made it home early to be with you and now you won't give him a hug?" he teased and started moving closer to her "come here" he said.

"NO!" Alexis looked at him with horror, she had no intention of getting herself all wet and sticky with orange juice. "Stay away dad!"

She had steeped away quite a few steps, so he turned around to go after Avril. Avril saw him approaching and knew what he was up to. She moved quickly, throwing the napkins to her mom and quickly picking up the bottle of maple syrup from the counter and aiming the nozzle at her dad. "Stay away or I will shoot" she said.

Castle stopped in his tracks "What are you?" he laughed and looked at Kate "did you send her for some martial arts or defense class where they taught her to use only food?"

Kate only looked at the three of them with her mouth covered. She couldn't help her laughter at their antics.

Finally she looked at her watch. She was going to get late for work, and she still needed to get Kaylee and Jamie out of bed.

"Okay, you 3, enough of the games now. Put down your weapon Avril, and get started on breakfast. Alexis you too. And Castle, go get yourself cleaned up, please."

"Alright, alright" he said, but then stopped on his way to the room, "Kate, could you come help me with this, I mean, it's all pretty messy." he said, while trying to get the neck of his t-shirt to let go of his skin.

Kate looked at her watch. She was going to be really late.

Alexis spoke "why don't you go help dad out, I'll go get Jamie and Kaylee"

Kate smiled, that would really help. She kissed Alexis on her head and said "thanks sweetie. I'll be right out."
