It was 6pm when Castle finished his dinner and went upstairs to find Kate.

When he found her she was pacing and mumbling to herself Castle stepped into the room and closed the door behind himself and gently said her name at this she jumped and turned to face him.

"You okay Kate ?" He asked stepping closer to her.

"I want skittles" she said before walking out of the room and returning 5 minutes later with not only skittles but ice cream and pop corn to and a soda for each of them.

"You having a feast there ?" Rick asked pointing towards the stack of food she put on the bed.

"We are gonna watch a movie so I don't pace a hole in the floor." She said before getting her laptop out and loading up netflix.

"Castle can you stand outside please whilst I get my pjs on" Beckett said.

Castle stood outside for 2 minutes before he was called back inside. Beckett was wearing light blue fleece pj bottoms and the same long sleeved white shirt. When Beckett made a motion to leave the room Castle asked "Where are you going ?"

"I'm going outside so you can change." She said as if it was obvious.

"Uhh about that I din't know we would be in the same room so I didn't pack any pj bottoms and I usually sleep in my boxers and a shirt so yeah, if you rather me keep my pants on I completely understand." He said hurriedly near the end.

"Its fine Castle just make sure you keep to your side of the bed whilst we're watching the film however when we sleep we are tops and tails." Beckett said.

Castle took his trousers off somewhat shyly and quickly got under the covers while Beckett silently laughs.

"Superman boxers really Castle" She said around a chuckle.

"Shush you it was a gift" He said blushing lightly.

Beckett got under the covers next to him and picked up her laptop from the foot of her bed but in doing so the back of her shirt had risen up and Castle could see some black ink writing on her side. Castle without thinking reached out and touched her side leaning in a little closer to read it. Beckett stilled in her movements and told him "Its a quote I got it when I turned 18 it says 'too weird to live too rare to die' its a little silly to have now that i'm older." She said with a blush on her cheeks.

Castle must have just realized he still had his hand on her waist because he moved it back so quickly he ended up accidentally smacking himself in the face and at this Beckett let out a full laugh teeth showing in all.

They were halfway through the movie when Beckett put the laptop on Castle's lap and laid down on the bed her head resting lightly on his stomach. Castle momentarily forgot how to breathe and Beckett must have realized because she said "Relax Castle and breathe."

"Why detective Beckett aren't yo just the cuddler today." He teased.

Beckett deciding to tease him back wrapped her arm around his stomach and moved a bit closer "You have a problem with that" she said.

Castle cleared his throat and shook his head no.

By the time the movie had finished and they were both asleep cuddling.

Jim came in a half hour later to see if they were okay and just smiled and shook his head. He took the laptop off of Rick's lap and closed it and put it on the floor but before he left he turned and took a photo of the duo and sent it to Katie and said...

'Just friends?'
