I was planning on posting this on October 1 but

I went ahead and posted a shorter version of chapter 2 to get everyone calmed down
after where I left the first chapter.

WOW I was afraid you were coming for me with pitchforks

I hope what I do here to lower the angst is similar to the real show
That would really make me feel better

So, for everyone's pleasure

Enjoy

The sun easily creeps through the thin excuse for drapes that are covering the dirt covered windows. The room has brightened way more early than Castle would have liked but there is no denying where he is and what went on when they got there last night and then again several more times during the night

He moves to the toilet to deal with the usual morning needs. He then returns from the bathroom to the bed and looks around to try and make sure there are no crawling creatures on his or her clothes from being left out in the open last night. He also checks to make sure there are no listening or video devices hidden to give voyeurs their own form of pleasure

Satisfying himself that the activities from last night have not been recorded for future postings on the web, he reaches down to pick up her clothes and places them on top of his. He then slips back into the bed and slides himself back beside the partner from last night.

He feels her start to move then she rolls over and in one fast motion saddles herself on top of him "Well mister was I worth the hundred bucks and did you get all your needs completely satisfied last night?"

"Yum" is his only response

She places her arms on either side of his head. She leans in and begins kissing him starting at his forehead then his eyes, his nose, her long soft brunette hair falling on either side of his head. When she finally reaches his mouth with her lips, he takes charge of the activities and pulls her face flush to his.

As he holds her for all his might she moans softly "Last night was amazing"

"It was. Wasn't it?"

"You seemed to like it"

"I loved everything. I really loved the accent. What was that? "

"Oh a little Serbian mixed with Croatian"

"Where did you learn to talk like that?"

"I know people too"

"It was super sexy"

"Thank you...and where did you find Trixie and her pals? They are real hookers...aren't they?"

"I met her while researching for a Derrick Storm book"

"I suppose you used her services?" she pokes Castle's arm

"No. Just used her to gather research"

She looks softly in his eyes "Nothing else?"

"Nothing else"

"Hum" is the only sound she is making at the moment. Then she begins her gentle attack on his face with her lips

"You ready for more?" he questions

She pulls up a little letting him stare into her beautiful hazel eyes

"Only if you would pick a little less seedy motel. How did you find this place anyway?"

"I know a guy"

She sits up straight giving him the chance to look at all of her "You always know a guy. Don't you"

"You have no idea how many guys I know" she almost laughs back to him

"Well, next time can you 'KNOW' a guy with a motel with a cleaner room. This place is nasty"

"Hey. I asked him to clean it up special for us"

Kate looks around the room and it does look better than so many of the rooms she had seen in the past while investigating murders. "OK it does look a little cleaner"

Castle puts his hands on Kate's legs where they are resting on top of his "I know. Next time you can be a high class call girl and we can meet up at the Four Seasons"

She leans back down to his face "Next time I would like to find a way to be in our own bed"

Rick moves his hands from her legs to her back and holds her tightly to him "Me too"

With that kiss, the activities move rapidly to more of what these two did most of the night before

When they finally get dressed Kate puts back on the fake wig and glasses she was wearing last night and they go out to his car to leave. He drops her off at an alley that they know is safe and is being watched by an investigator of his PI firm and he speeds back to the rental store to return the vehicle.

The man watches until Beckett is safely in a cab and on her way to the safe house that she had set up

But their separation does not occur until she has given Rick a flash drive containing the information she wants investigated. Information that if it were to appear on department computers would immediately point to her as the source of inquiry.

I could NOT let anyone go to sleep thinking Castle would cheat on Kate

I feel better.

Don't you?
