Disclaimer : Castle is not mine.
He found her sitting cross legged on the bed staring out the window where it was currently raining. He placed the plate with her breakfast on the bedside table, when the plate clanked she didn't even flinch, he doesn't think she even registered the noise. He walked across the bed on his knees and when he reached her he gently ran his fingers in a soothing motion which always worked on getting Alexis to calm down when she was ill and crying. She leaned back a fraction and he knew she was listening.
"I told them how extraordinary you are." He whispers into her ear, his lips grazing the shell of her ear with every word. "I told them how much you deal with and that you feel like they are treating you like an outsider." She moved her head to the side so she could see him out of the corner of her eye "It's not fair how they treated you, after everything you do for them and everyone around you, constantly helping everyone. I think you're extraordinary Kate and I can't wait to prove that to you."
"I don't deserve you." She whispered and he could hear the tears in her voice.
He shifted around on the bed so he could look in her eyes "Why would you think that ?"
Beckett looked down and away from his caring eyes and he put his index finger under her chin so she had no choice but to look him in the eyes "I remember."
What he said next shocked her so much she almost got whiplash in her neck looking up at him.
"That's okay." When she looks at him confused he continues, "I'm hurt but I have to acknowledge that you had your reasons."
Beckett nearly tackled him off of the bed when she hugged him next. He felt her tears on his neck and new she was having a bad day already and it wasn't even 11am yet. Beckett pulled back slightly from where her head was nestled in his neck and they were close, very close. And she couldn't have helped but look into his deep blue eyes, the few freckles he has on his nose that she had never realized before, the scar above his left eyebrow and the shade of pink his lips is. Then she realized that he was leaning in and slowly waiting to see if she was going to pull back. But she wasn't and she couldn't help the small upturn of her lips at the corner and she leaned in to and closed her eyes showing him that she wanted this. Wanted him.
Their lips touched and it was pure electricity. It was gentle and soft and everything she thought it wouldn't be but she loved it. She leaned in a little more applying more pressure to his lips and he must have taken that as a good sign because his tongue stroked over her bottom lip and she opened her mouth welcoming him in. She felt his hand on her waist and to say it felt right it was an understatement.
Things started to heat up when she began to lay down on her back and pulled him with her but he was hovering over her, his tongue fully invested in mapping every curve of her tongue and it felt amazing. He made her skin tingle, wanting more.
Neither of them heard the door opening until there was a loud smashing. They startled apart so fast that Castle fell of the bed confused and his lips swollen from her kisses. Kate looked up wide eyed to see her dad standing there his hands covering his eyes and two smashed cups on the floor. To say that Kate Beckett was blushing would be the understatement of the year.
"Da-ad why can't you knock.2 Kate asked embarrassed.
"I was bring you guys some hot cocoa I remember it cheered you up but I and now I'm gonna go." And then he left so quickly.
They were silent for nearly 5 minutes until Rick started laughing only for a pillow to be thrown and him and recieve a glare from Kate.
