They had a big fight. He had found out that she had gone to L.A. with Castle on a case. He accused her of sleeping with Castle. He had told her in harsh and painful words. He breaks up with her and storms out of her apartment telling her he is on his way to a six month DWB mission in Columbia. He had initially rejected the mission wanting to he with her, but now no more.

Rick works for the CIA when he encounters Kate Beckett. So what does he do and do with her?

Set directly after the finale scene of 4x23 Always and developing an alternative storyline following Castle and Beckett finally finding their way to each other. Things will unfold a lot differently and faster than they did on screen. The main theme will be their relationship and the events regarding their families as things continue to evolve. Will contain smut. Hope you enjoy!

Of the three things Kate Beckett values most in her life, literature stands out. That's why she ends up going to that book launch party for her favorite author, even though she thinks the new saga isn't as good as the one that came first. She just had no idea what it would entail in her life, let alone how Richard Castle could be even more than she used to believe.

Traveling along the west coast of North America, Castle and Beckett navigate from the waterways of Vancouver to the shores of San Diego with their family and friends. They spend the summer making their way south exploring places new and old while Castle and Beckett look forward to their upcoming anniversary. Forty-third in the Beware Of Darkness series. Caskett pairing.

She can't help but wonder if they still look like the ocean. She thinks about lying, saying it isn't her, that she doesn't know what he's talking about, that she's never met him in her entire life. But she knows it won't work.››

She was a perfectionist in every sense of the word. She loved her job and couldn't see doing anything else. But when tragedy struck, her life changed. He always pushed people's buttons and got them to be their best. The second he saw her, he fell for her. What happens when their worlds collide?

An AU meeting of Rick and Kate. Late season 3/early season 4 timeframe, characters are still the same but they never crossed paths during the Tisdale case. I do not own or profit from these beloved characters.

"Her stubborn, stupid body wanted Castle, was apparently fixated on him, and wasn't interested in any substitutes. So maybe she should just go for it, have a one night stand with him, get him out of her system." Starting at the end of 2x23 "Overkill" and going from there.

A story from the Redemption/Tuesdays with Johanna Universe: Christmas still wasn't exactly what Johanna Beckett had hoped it would be but she had made herself content with how things were…but her four year old granddaughter had other ideas in mind. Perhaps this Christmas would be the season when everything changed. Castle Winter Ficathon 2020

I have a lot of random little ideas that pop into my head - so this will be a collection of all those little stories. Each chapter will be a stand alone story (unless stated otherwise). Some will be from prompts, others will be just random ideas. I do not own or profit from these characters, anything you recognise is not mine.

A/U: As a father Rick can sympathize. But as a son? As a son, he needed a dad.
