A/N #1: With the last chapter being a special one I was anxious to see what the response would be so I was really pleased with what I got. So I'll start on my thank yous right away! TORONTOSUN (Great you liked how everyone was involved, with what happened in the chapter and how close they are I wanted to show that definitely!) and

Mb (I wasn't surprised to see you were happy to see that the twins arrived, I thought readers would be since this story was working up to it, lol. And I was really happy that you loved the talk Alexis and Beckett had about how she felt about Beckett with her past life memories are affecting that too. And you're right, Beckett and Alexis are mother and daughter in everything but blood. And I do feel like Meredith really wasn't much of a mother so glad you caught that. So pleased you loved the names for the twins, sometimes it can be hard to get the right ones, lol, so I was glad I chose well! Yeah, though Louis' parents were overseas I did have to mention them being called of course. And I wasn't surprised you were mentioning it would be tough with two babies, I agree, lol, I don't know how parents of multiples do it especially concerning sleep! Nice to see you thought it was nicely done. And I had to laugh at you saying the Castle-McCollough twins made their grand entrance but I wasn't surprised you did since you'd mentioned it before. You're welcome for the first half of the chapter! I was happy to read you thought the second half of the chapter was wonderfully written too. And I was glad that you loved when Julia, Eliza and Josie met their nephew and niece and talking to the babies since that was a fun scene to write. Actually, I don't call my aunt 'aunt' just her name, lol, not sure why but you're right that with the age gap between at least Eliza and Josie it would be odd, lol. But you're right, Meredith definitely made a bad impression on the family and I wanted to show that, so I was glad you loved that moment! Great you thought the second half was wonderfully written. And you're welcome for the second half too!).

Thanks so much for the reviews, I loved reading them and appreciate the time taken to write them out and send them my way!

A/N #2: The title of this chapter is a lyric from the song So Glad to See You Here written by Paul McCartney, from the Wings album Back to the Egg.

Some Have Got It Bad

The boom of thunder made Castle jerk a little in bed before he opened his eyes. Since he was already facing the windows, he could easily see it was raining and groaned before he paused. He looked behind him before he sat up and then saw his wife walking into the bedroom at that moment. "Happy Birthday love," he told her with a smile.

"Thank you," Beckett replied, walking over to him. She set the bowl with their breakfast in it on the nightstand and said, "You were exhausted."

"And a little peeved," Castle replied. When his wife gave him a look he told her, "You can't blame me for wanting to surprise you… or wake up I mean."

"Either way," Beckett said nonchalantly as she sat next to him. She smiled at his frown before she leaned into him and shared a brief kiss with him. Pulling away she was about to reach for the bowl of fruit he'd cut the night before when he was grabbing her. She let out a gasp while he was kissing her before she responded, wrapping her arms around him tightly. She wasn't surprised when he was making it intense, and she did her best to fight against his tongue inside her mouth though she didn't mind he was a lot rougher than she was. Since it was finally her birthday, she was aware he was thinking of them returning to their intimacy. When they were finally parting, she was smiling as she told him, "You're serious right?"

"Yes… do I need to do some stretching right now?" Castle asked, studying his wife while she began to laugh.

"No you don't," Beckett said firmly before she was brushing her lips against his. When she had pulled away, she told him, "Do you want breakfast?"

"That's more your decision," Castle said. He wasn't surprised when she gave him a look and he told her, "I was serious."

"I know," Beckett said before she was looking at the bowl again. She paused before she turned to her husband and literally threw herself at him. Hearing his grunt in response she was soon after kissing him, pleased when he was responding before he was flipping her onto her back. "Or were you not?" she asked him teasingly.

"Oh, I am serious," Castle said. "My shirt is in the way."

Laughing, Beckett looked on while her husband was unbuttoning his dress shirt she was wearing. "By the way," she told him just before he finished. "You packed two of them," smiling when he was smirking at her before he responded.

"I think you figured it out already," Castle replied easily.

"It wasn't that difficult," Beckett said, watching him when he finished with the last button. She was soon biting her lower lip while her husband was slowly opening his shirt on her, exposing her body to him.

"It's your birthday Kate," Castle told her huskily after he'd opened the shirt up fully.

"And this is exactly what I want," Beckett said, feeling her heart starting to pound a little faster when he bowed his head. Closing her eyes tightly when his lips pressed against her right breast. He was moving to kiss all around them both and she was clutching at the pillow to her right. "Wait, help me love," she said when he had pulled away from her chest.

"Let me," Castle said, moving to tuck his pillow and then hers under her head. She started to sit up and he stopped her saying, "Humor me?"

Smiling Beckett said, "Then will you do the same for me?" She wasn't surprised when he was immediately confused and she said, "Pleasure me first?"

"Of course," Castle said swiftly. He then smiled and told her, "I'm assuming your gift is doing the same for me."

"You're complaining about that?" Beckett responded with a smirk. She took her husband's kiss then, parting her lips swiftly to his tongue that swept along her lower lip. They were tangling them together again until they needed to breathe and once they had parted she said, "Please let me take this off," begging him.

Castle nodded and let her sit up before he assisted her in getting his shirt off, tossing it to the floor in a hurry. He was leaning into her, kissing her deeply before she could lay back down. Feeling her wrapping her arms around him, he followed her lead when she was pulling him with her. Since he was aware of what her movement was, he didn't let that kiss last for very long. He went to her neck, kissing at it hungrily before he was moving lower again.

Watching her husband brushing his lips to her breasts again, Beckett was about to urge him to take her nipples as well when he was doing so. She was crying out in joy when he rubbed his tongue to her right nipple before he was suckling at her. Feeling his slightly keen suction she couldn't stop thrusting her hips up against him until he was pulling back. "I can't help myself," she explained to him.

Shaking his head Castle said, "I would be doing the same… And then I would be coming all over you."

Smiling Beckett asked, "Is that a promise?"

Freezing for a moment, Castle asked, "Is that a request?" When she opened her mouth to speak, he said in a rush, "Or a demand?"

"Maybe a demand," Beckett said after exaggerating thinking about that. "Later. Right now I want your cock in my mouth when you come."

"Vixen," Castle growled to her before he was kissing her. He was intense before he was slowly pulling back from her and then began to kiss his way down her body without stopping. Once he'd reached between her legs, he was pulling back for a moment to adjust so he could place her legs over his shoulders. With that set he leaned down to her and kissed at her sex, going around it as much as he could until he was moving to her clit. He used his left hand, arm snaking its way around her leg, to expose her clit to him. He couldn't help shuddering at the sight of it and he moved to kiss at the nub, feeling her trembling in pleasure above him. He kissed it one more time before he opened his mouth to begin sucking on it. Hearing his wife's vocal reactions to him, he did his best to focus on her until she was crying out.

"Rick you… I almost came," Beckett couldn't help breathing to him.

"I know, I was enjoying that," Castle replied before he moved to kiss and lick at her folds. Delving his tongue inside of her sex he couldn't stop his groan at the taste of her and was soon rubbing his tongue back and forth. When he started to do that, he was soon holding her legs tightly since she was shifting above him more and more. He would have asked her if she was close if he hadn't known it would be a stupid question. With the way she was moving above him he was well aware she was close, and he wasn't stopping until she was letting out a heavy cry, arching her back roughly. He could just hear his name in her cry and continued moving his tongue within her along with his fingers rubbing at her clit. When she began to calm down he did the same, though he didn't stop running his tongue back and forth or caress her until she was completely still beneath him.

"I don't think I can move," Beckett told her husband teasingly when he moved to lay next to her.

"Good, let me touch you," Castle said swiftly.

"Hmm, should I?" Beckett asked him, teasing him again.

"Yes," Castle said, watching his wife taking his hand. As she was gently making him cup her breast he said, "Not that intense… not yet."

"Really?" Beckett asked, raising her head to look down at him.

"It's… ready for you, but just a little touching if I could," Castle said, tilting her chin up so she was looking at him. "Please."

Smiling at him, Beckett made him switch places with her before she was straddling him. "Good?" she asked.

"I… think," Castle replied, pausing while he was taking her in.

Leaning over, Beckett kissed him and made it sensual before they were lightly tangling their tongues around each other. They gently rubbed before she was the one pulling away and she leaned down again. That time she went to his chest, kissing lightly around it for a little before she was going down further. She was aware her husband was going to be extremely aroused, and she did her best to stimulate him elsewhere before she was finally at his length.

"Kate I… might come all over you if you're not careful," Castle was breathing to her heavily, watching her closely.

"I'm not surprised," Beckett replied. She saw his eyes widening at her smirk before she leaned down to kiss the tip of him. He had been weeping liberally while he'd pleasured her and from then to that point, meaning she couldn't keep herself from licking at him after the first kiss. She heard his groan of her name, and it spurred her to part her lips. Lowering her mouth over him, she was eagerly going down as far as she usually did before she was pulling away, giving a little suction at the same time. Moving up and down, she was slow at first until she sped up, not doing anything else but that for his stimulation. When he was climaxing, groaning her name in pure joy she felt a thrill shoot through her, arousing her again and making her hope she would be ready before long. Taking his release, she was tempted to try and rub herself into the mattress beneath her for some stimulation, but she resisted since she wanted her husband to be involved in that as well. She was soon pulling away, though once she had she considered his member and couldn't help herself, leaning down again.

Hissing heavily at his wife kissing around him, Castle somehow managed to reach down to her and was able to pull her up to him. Crushing her lips beneath his he was quick to plunge his tongue into her mouth so they could duel. He was relieved to feel her doing so hungrily to him and they were involved in that for some time until they needed to breathe. "You're amazing," he told her seriously.

"So are you," Beckett replied. "I wanted to rub into the bed," she added before he was speaking rapidly to her surprise.

"Show me," Castle said.

Laughing, Beckett shook her head and said, "I don't want to waste time."

"Oh… so, breakfast?" Castle asked.

"After," Beckett replied, pulling her husband to her a little harder. When he got on top of her she had her legs spread and waited for him to enter her. She was a little startled when he didn't do so right away but instead was reaching in between them. "I just said-" she began before he was interrupting her.

"This is for myself," Castle told her in a rush before he was gently slipping his fingers inside of her. While he was moving them back and forth gently he stared at his wife, her eyes rolled back and her body moving in time with him. When he stopped, he was sliding inside of her carefully, greatly enjoying her moan of his name until he was pressed against her hips. He was about to begin thrusting when she was suddenly moving her legs and he waited since she was positioning them.

With her husband's help, Beckett had her left ankle on his shoulder before her other was wrapped securely around his side. Since they were both ready, she wasn't surprised when Castle was beginning to thrust, but was immediately distracted by the shock of pleasure that filled her at his movement. She was crying out to him when he didn't stop and continued to move, making her begin to try and move with him. It was difficult but focusing on her hips she managed to meet him since he was going so slowly.

Breathing heavily while he stared down at his wife, Castle eventually was compelled to ask her, "Was this for you… or for me?"

"Both of us," Beckett breathed before he was kissing her. She wasn't surprised when it didn't last for long and she told him, "I won't pick this… again." Taking in the friction between them at that point, though he was still moving slowly, she was letting out a little gasp every time he was sliding inside of her. She had been holding onto his arms since he'd begun to move, and she squeezed them tightly before he was starting to slow down. "Don't stop," she breathed before he was responding quickly.

"I won't, I just want to make sure I'm not pleasuring you too fast," Castle replied.

"I don't think you're going to be able to control that," Beckett said, forcing herself to say that without stopping.

"No," Castle said, speeding up slightly. When he was back to the speed he'd been at before he was deliberate, pressing as deep as he could when he was sliding into her. After doing that for a while he could tell his wife was inching closer to her end by the way her body was moving. She had ceased moving in time with him and the discordance of that was arousing him even more. "Kate," he said after they'd been moving a little longer. "Please tell me you're close."

"I am," Beckett moaned heavily, arching her back before she was freezing for a moment when her husband was raising her right leg and pressing into her hard. Calling his name, she was moving her body the best she could while her hips were thrusting against him wildly. She could dimly hear her husband saying her name but could easily feel when he was joining her with his own climax. Feeling his release filling her, she tightened her grip on his arms thinking she would be pushed to a second orgasm. It didn't happen, but as she was laying still beneath him, she could feel the first inklings of her arousal coming back. But he was thrusting hard one last time and she turned her attention to wrapping her arms around him since he was soon after withdrawing from her and lying next to her.

"I didn't want to keep you in that position," Castle explained while he was wrapping his arms around his wife. He was surprised when she wasn't responding, and he was about to ask her what was wrong when he realized she was kissing at his chest. Grunting a few times, he tried to stop her before she was doing that herself and pulling away, smirking at him while she began to speak.

"I guess I should thank you for that," Beckett told him. "Don't stop me," she added firmly. She smiled briefly when he shook his head, and she turned her attention to grabbing the bowl.

"Wait, if we're eating let me sit up all the way," Castle told her quickly. When she nodded to him, he said, "Do you mind the weather?"

"When I woke up I was a little disappointed," Beckett replied with a smile. "But I think I'm okay with staying inside today." She fed him some mango and asked, "You?"

"Either way," Castle said hurriedly as soon as he had swallowed.

"Pervert," Beckett teased him before she laughed when he was nipping at her fingers. She was about to take something out for herself to eat when he was feeding her a lychee. Eating the fruit she then said, "It's going to get a little boring here."

"Opinion or fact?" Castle asked before he let her give him some papaya.

"Seeing what you're going to say," Beckett told him with a smile. She wasn't surprised when he leaned into her and kissed her gently before she said, "Are you sure you want me to decide on everything?"

"Don't I always?" Castle replied.

Shrugging Beckett took the piece of pineapple he fed to her before she said, "You do." She then said slowly, "I wonder if you'll indulge me in something."

"Sure," Castle agreed immediately.

Smiling at how fast he'd spoken, Beckett then told him, "After we finish eating open the windows?"

"The entire wall?" Castle asked, a little startled. At her nod he looked outside and then said, "Well… I guess it wouldn't really come inside. The rain I mean."

"There is an awning," Beckett replied in amusement. She watched her husband nodding slowly before she was smiling, and she leaned into him to kiss him gently on the lips. When he responded, she wasn't surprised when he took a second longer than he normally would have. But he was shortly after trying to take over though she wasn't allowing him and they dueled joyfully for a while. Parting eventually, she was panting heavily, and she told him, "Open them."

"I will," Castle said, nodding before they focused on eating a little more. They fed each other and were licking and sucking at each other's fingers until they were setting aside the bowl and he was wrapping his arms around her, holding her close. He kissed her but didn't linger for very long before he was slowly pulling away.

Beckett was about to protest when her husband was suddenly getting off the bed and moving to the collapsible doors. She moved to the edge of the bed to watch him and was biting her lower lip before she had to move.

"There," Castle said once he had finished. "At least it's not freezing even with the rain," he added, standing up straight. He was about to turn to his wife when he felt her arms wrapping around him from behind. "I'm not going to call you that, but you realize you are," he teased her, turning around while she was responding while she smiled.

"You would have wanted me to do the same," Beckett said simply. She watched her husband take her hands, kissing at the palms before she said, "But thank you for that."

"I aim to please," Castle said before he was picking her up and carrying her to the bed though it wasn't that far.

"Don't throw me," Beckett laughed, moving to put her hand down once he was setting her on the mattress.

"I wasn't going to," Castle said easily, kissing her deeply before his knee was resting on the bed. Feeling her cupping his cheeks with her hands he was moving to sit with her more fully so he could wrap his arms around her. He was startled when she was suddenly stopping the kiss and he was about to ask her what was wrong when she moved to sit on his lap. He grunted hard abruptly in pleasure at the sensation of her pushing his member against his stomach in her actions.

Unsure how much longer they were kissing one another, Beckett was smiling once they'd parted and she told him, "I have another request."

"I wonder if you should just say it's a demand," Castle told her.

"Whatever you want to call it," Beckett said firmly. "I know what I want." She smiled when her husband was nodding rapidly, and she leaned into him. They kissed deeply again and for some time until he was pulling away from her. She closed her eyes tightly while he kissed her neck after gently pulling her hair out of the way and she murmured his name before he was kissing her again. With that one more sensuous she could feel her breasts aching almost at the sensation before she pulled away from him.

"Love," Castle said, trying not to sound too annoyed. When she was getting off of him, he watched her getting off the bed and turning to her nightstand. "There was a reason?" he asked her since the only thing there was her phone which she was setting into the drawer.

"You don't want to?" Beckett asked him with a smile, watching him head to the bathroom.

"Oh I do, but I'm wondering what position you want here," Castle said, returning with a towel. Seeing his wife was standing still next to the nightstand he put the towel over it and said, "I could sit here if you wanted."

"No," Beckett said firmly before she was sitting. Parting her legs, she watched her husband shaking his head. "Now you don't want to?" she asked, raising her eyebrow.

"No," Castle said in the same firm tone she had used. He then smiled and told her, "I know what you're doing," before he grabbed her.

Crying out when she found herself lightly bouncing on the mattress, Beckett was laughing and told him when he got on top of her, "I do want to use that at some point."

"Standing up?" Castle asked pointedly. When his wife was smirking at him, he growled, "Vixen."

"Hmm, take me Sheik," Beckett told him.

"Not like this," Castle said roughly, grabbing her and putting her on top of him. He was about to pull her down a little more to him before she was suddenly grabbing him and flipping him onto his back. "This is what you wanted," he said, relieved when she was quickly answering.

"It may have been," Beckett replied before she was laughing while her husband was flipping her around. She was taking his kiss before she said, "To be honest besides this I didn't have much planned."

"I'm not surprised," Castle said, looking over her body. "I didn't either."

"Then… who's going to decide?" Beckett asked.

"To be honest," Castle said slowly after he'd thought that over. "I don't think I care right now," he said.

"Neither do I," Beckett replied before they were kissing again. She half expected him to switch them again but was pleased when he didn't. She had her legs spread but did so a little wider before she took his length in her hand at his direction though he didn't really need her help. As soon as he was sinking within her they were both groaning and once their hips were pressed together, she breathed, "Sampla?"

"Agreed," Castle said briefly before he was leaning down to her and kissing her. While their tongues were dueling frantically, he felt her feet pressing on the sides of his legs and aware of what she was doing he began to thrust. Her groan of pleasure broke off their kiss and once he could he breathed, "You're a goddess love… if I could… I would take you out in the rain."

Breathing out a laugh at the sound of thunder at that moment, Beckett brought her husband down to her for another kiss. It didn't last as long as the previous one, and she was biting her lower lip feeling him kissing his way to her chest. When he soon reached her breasts, she moved her hands from his back and the nape of his neck to his hair, sliding her fingers through it to lightly scrape at his scalp. She had nearly forgotten what they'd talked about at the start, but her husband moving her hands away and turning them around shortly after. She smiled and said, "So I choose whatever I want don't I?"

"Yes," Castle said before they were kissing again. He felt his wife shifting, making him grunt a little in response before he was soon pulling away. He watched her while she was beginning to bounce on him, going slowly, and he leaned down to begin kissing at her breasts before she was drawing him up to her. Kissing each other sensuously, he was running his hands up and down her back before she was stopping. He couldn't help smiling, aware she was telling him to start moving, and he did so by having her get off of him. He sat on the nightstand and said, "It should get some use," when she was watching him.

"I'm glad you thought of it," Beckett said, straddling her husband's lap before he was inside of her. They had been silent in reaction to that before they were staring at each other, wrapping their arms around one another until they were kissing. She moved again, but because they didn't have much room she was unable to go that fast until she was getting off of him. She saw his shock before it turned into a smirk and she told him, "You don't mind now?"

"Oh I didn't at all, but I was just wondering why you would stop," Castle replied. "You wanted the nightstand."

"It was a vague idea," Beckett replied with a smile before he was standing and kissing her. She wasn't surprised when it was a brief kiss, and she was moving to hug him when he was soon ending the kiss. "You know," she told him. "It is your choice."

Looking around the room, Castle said slowly, "Yes, it is." He pulled her to the dresser opposite the room from the bed and watched her pressing up against it. Kissing at the back of her shoulder, he pushed against her back and was taking her hands to entwine their fingers. He'd intended to wait a little before he started them making love again, but when she was pressing back against him he became aware she didn't want to. He had his hands on her hips while she was bending over slightly onto her hands, and he was holding her a little before he was entering her again.

Gasping, Beckett was about to tell her husband not to take too long, since he'd been going so slowly, but he preempted her by beginning to thrust and hard. When he was speeding up she moved with him, relieved she was able to do so in that position. "Rick… please… faster," she moaned eventually.

"Stand up," Castle told her, stopping as soon as she'd spoken. Once she was doing so he wrapped his arms around her and said, "You want this."

"For now," Beckett replied, moaning after since he was caressing at her breasts. She held herself still while his hands were moving down her body and she reached around herself to hold onto his neck. "Hurry," she sighed when he was gently fondling her clit. She cried out when he was lightly slapping at the side of her thigh before she bent over the dresser. With him thrusting again she was quick to follow his pace, letting her cries of pleasure escape from her mouth loudly before she was arching her back. She had intended to warn her husband that she was going to orgasm, the pleasure from their friction and his length's speed, girth and size was too much, and she was doing so roughly. Feeling him joining her a very short time later she wasn't very surprised and felt a thrill go through her with her body already nearly fully satiated. When she finally stopped, she was leaning fully against the top of the dresser, listening to her husband ramming into her and groaning and calling her name. She gasped when he gave her a last thrust, pushing her harder into the dresser before his hands were resting on either side of her on the wood.

"I shoved you," Castle said hoarsely after he had regained a little of his strength.

"Let me get up," Beckett said with a smile. Once he had done so, though it had involved them having to part, she turned to him and drew him down to her for a kiss. She was gentle, though she lingered before she was pulling back. "You did a little," she then answered him. She covered his mouth with her hand and said, "I didn't mind at all."

"The handles?" Castle asked, looking on either side of them.

Beckett smiled again when her husband appeared surprised to see the handles for the dresser weren't where she had been standing. "You know I did look where you were taking me," she pointed out.

"And it's what you wanted," Castle said, a little startled when she laughed in response.

"It amazes you I want you to dominate me sometimes," Beckett said. "But to be honest it's not exactly domination. No more than I dominate you when I ride your cock."

"Oh… I would still call it that," Castle said. When she smiled at him, he couldn't help himself, picking her up and carrying her over to the bed. Setting her down on it he followed her and once they were settled he told her, "But I get the feeling I know why you want me on top or more in control."

"Good, stop being so surprised," Beckett said.

Snorting Castle told her, "It's a little difficult, following you for four years." He then smiled and turned a little onto his side to be able to look at her and said, "Though which is better for your pleasure?"

"Either, you're the only one who's made me on my back physically rewarding," Beckett told him, reaching up and trailing her fingertips over his lips.

"Goddess," Castle said, taking her hand and pressing a few kisses there before he was taking her lips fervently. After he was pulling away, he let her get on top of him and he was gently rubbing at her hip, letting his hand slide back to her ass. Grasping it firmly he wasn't surprised when she gasped and ended the kiss she had started before he told her huskily, "Turn over Kate."

Doing so immediately, Beckett looked over her shoulder and watched him moving to get off the bed. "I want to do the same," she said immediately.

Nodding briefly, Castle walked into the bathroom and got their lotion bottles before he went out to his wife saying, "I was going to start again but I really don't want you to get sore."

"I probably will," Beckett commented, smiling when he stood next to the bed. She had turned over onto her back and she wasn't surprised when he was watching her. "It is my birthday," she commented, feigning indifference though her right hand was rubbing around her sex.

"I want to watch you," Castle said huskily before he got onto the mattress.

"Just watch?" Beckett asked. She couldn't help smiling when her husband was shaking his head rapidly and she waited for him to lay next to her before he was wrapping his arm around her. Spreading her labia for him she wasn't surprised when he was gently fingering her clit and she let go of herself, holding onto him tightly before he was kissing her. At the same time he was doing that, he was rubbing gently at her before she stopped him carefully.

Castle was a little startled his wife had done that but didn't end the kiss before they were parting. "Kate-" he started to say with a slight frown. She interrupted him, pressing his hand back to her sex, and with that unspoken command he began to stimulate her eagerly. He did that for a while before he brought her to her climax, unable to help feeling more than a little gratified watching her pleasure. By then he'd slipped his fingers inside of her and when he carefully withdrew them as soon as she was still, he let her take his hand. Watching her lick his come from their bout before, he tried to keep himself from moving towards her though she was soon pushing herself up.

"We have a problem Rick," Beckett said, not looking at him while she was pushing her hair back over her shoulders.

"Which is?" Castle asked, a little concerned since she sounded serious. She turned to him then and he paused, seeing the way her lips were raised slightly on the left before he said, "I know, but you realize I was just inside you."

"And when has that stopped me," Beckett asked, smirking outright then.

"Then tell me where to go," Castle said. He spoke seriously, wanting her to know he would willingly move, when she was smiling at him and literally taking his breath away before she spoke while she took his hand.

"You're not going to make me change my mind?" Beckett asked.

"No… though you know how I feel about you on the floor," Castle immediately answered. He paused and then said, "Dirty?"

"Slightly," Beckett replied, trying not to laugh. She then leaned into him and kissed him gently before telling him, "I want to take a bath after we head outside."

Opening his mouth to speak, Castle glanced over at her nightstand where he'd placed the two bottles of lotion. "The massages?" he asked.

Smiling, Beckett said, "After we're clean."

"Something might happen after that," Castle said seriously though he couldn't keep that for long.

Trying not to laugh at her husband's smile, Beckett was kissing him lovingly before she said, "I hope it does," and he was kissing her. They were doing so hard, and they were tangling their tongues around each other until they were parting to catch their breath. "Love, come on," she told him before she pulled him towards her and off the bed. She was pleased when he followed her, and they looked outside to see how the weather was.

"I'm not questioning the position," Castle said. "Just the weather. And to make sure you're sure about that."

Beckett looked outside again and seeing the flash of lightning hesitated before she turned to her husband. "Maybe you're right," she told him.

"We could stand… I could stand under the awning," Castle started to say before he had to quickly correct himself.

"No, here," Beckett said shortly. She made her husband sit on the edge of the bed, seeing his startled expression for a moment before she was on her knees. "But since I'm not getting outside," she then said, placing her hands on the tops of his thighs. "Will you hold yourself for me?" When he was nodding wordlessly, she resisted the urge to smile and managed it because he was grasping himself, the sight heavily arousing. She lowered her mouth on him as soon as she had kissed around the tip of him, bobbing her head easily at first before she proceeded to speed up. She listened to her husband's vocal reactions, each grunt filling her with pleasure until he was tensing below her and cupping the back of her head since his fingers were tangled in her hair. Tasting his pleasure, her sex was throbbing insistently, and she was certain she wasn't going to be able to stay away from her husband for long. When he was still, she remained where she was, gently running her mouth on him to make sure he would feel her. But she finally pulled away from him fully and made sure he was okay with her sitting on his lap before she did so.

"Thank you," Castle said seriously.

"I should be saying that," Beckett told him teasingly.

Shaking his head Castle said, "I'm standing by what I said."

Smiling, Beckett leaned into him and told him once they'd parted, "You'll let me do that later, right?"

"Of course," Castle said before he was suddenly scooping her up in his arms and carrying her into the bathroom to her laughter. Setting her down at the tub he filled it and said, "I wish we could go outside," about to take off his glasses. He was a little startled when she stopped him suddenly and he was nearly going to ask what was wrong when she was explaining without him asking.

"This is why I didn't want to go outside," Beckett said with a smile. "Leave those on," she instructed him.

"Except for right now," Castle said, turning off the water in the tub. After he stood up, he took off his glasses and told her, "I'll put them back on."

"Or I will," Beckett said, unable to help smirking slightly when her husband shuddered in response before they were making their way to the shower stall. Since it was small, they were pressed against each other while they rinsed off their bodies before they stepped out. Staying close to her husband while he was drying her body off she told him, "I may need a few showers." She smiled when he paused and she said, "Unless you have any objections."

"Oh no, I'm well prepared to give you whatever you want Kate," Castle said firmly.

"Hmm, I love you Rick," Beckett said while he leaned down to her. They were kissing deeply before he was holding her tightly against him and she suddenly began to laugh, ending things between them. "Sorry, you're still wet," she explained when he looked at him in surprise. She gave him the other towel and went to where his glasses were before she returned to him and gently slid them on his face. "Don't remove those," she said firmly.

"Unless we're going outside," Castle said. He was momentarily startled when she shook her head and said, "So… bath?"

Beckett couldn't help laughing and let him pull him over to the tub where she waited for him to get in first. Once she was with him, she was soon leaning back against him with his arms around her. They were quiet, listening to the rain and a rumble of thunder eventually before she felt him moving her hair from her neck. "Rick…" she sighed in pleasure before he was pulling her tightly to him as he spoke.

"I love you too Kate," Castle said. "I didn't have the chance to tell you."

"I knew you would eventually," Beckett said, smiling at first before she lost that. "I didn't mean-"

"Believe me, I know you wouldn't be stuck in the past when we're here in paradise," Castle said, smiling when she was laughing. "And naked."

Rolling her eyes, while she was smiling widely, Beckett said, "I remembered all of a sudden."

"I'm not surprised," Castle said. "But for now… what should we do?"

Laughing, Beckett then told him, "Relax, you owe me a massage, don't you?"

"So do you," Castle said swiftly, smiling when she laughed. He hugged her close and kissed around her shoulders before he moved to her ear that was exposed. He nibbled at the lobe, loving the way she moaned in pleasure at the sensation before he said, "We may need to continue afterward."

"Probably," Beckett said with a smile before she moved out of his hold. Turning to sit on her knees she said, "I think this has been enough."

"It has?" Castle asked her in surprise.

"Mmm-hmm," Beckett said before she leaned fully against him and pressed her breasts to his chest. "Unless you want us to stay."

"You know… you're absolutely right," Castle said before he kissed her when she began to smile. He did so deeply and plunged his tongue into her mouth to find she was more than ready for him, leading to them dueling for some time. "I swear I agreed with you," he said, looking around them when they stopped.

With a smile, Beckett brushed her lips to his before they were getting out of the tub together. They took turns drying off each other until they could head back to the bed, and she said, "Me first?"

"Yes," Castle said, making her lay down on the bed as he joined her. He smiled at her laughter before he was kissing her tenderly, not lingering since he was helping her turn around onto her stomach. With her moving easily he said, "Do you want anything to happen when I'm done?"

"No," Beckett replied. Looking at him over her shoulder she told him, "I'll do the same to you," smiling when leaned down to her back to kiss near her shoulder before he responded.

"I was going to insist," Castle replied before he moved to get her lotion. Rubbing some on his hands he then proceeded to work over her back, massaging out the knots at the top before he was working his way down. When he finished he leaned down, kissing at her ass gently before he was moving to her ear to murmur to her, "I want to hold you."

Smiling, Beckett turned onto her side and told him, "After this." When he nodded, they were switching places before she brushed her lips against his. Once he was laying on his stomach, she got his lotion and massaged his back, feeling the knots he had. "This is what you get for carrying me all over the place," smiling again when he laughed.

"Yes, you let me carry you that far," Castle told her teasingly. She kissed his cheek, since he was looking at her, and he grunted while she was continuing before he said, "I've been tense."

"I know, we're not planning on being celibate again are we?" Beckett asked him.

"I…" Castle began. "You know what? I was going to say for Christmas but let's not be that cruel for the holidays."

"Then when should we next?" Beckett asked. When he looked at her in obvious confusion she said with a smile, "I'm assuming you're feeling a little… pressure right now."

Glancing down at himself Castle said, "Well… a little like you said but I think we're thinking the same thing."

"Before Valentine's Day?" Beckett replied. When he nodded, she kissed the side of her husband's head and finished with his back before he was suddenly grabbing her and flipping her onto her back. "What about our hands?" she asked.

"We can use it to our advantage," Castle said seriously before he was kissing her deeply.

Since she had been growing more and more aroused through their massages, Beckett took little time to be fully prepared for her husband. She parted her legs, holding them just before her husband was entering her and at his pause she told him, "No?"

"Surprise," Castle told her briefly before he was sliding within her. He began to move, gently thrusting and listening to his wife's joy before he stopped moving.

"Rick," Beckett hissed roughly in annoyance. "Don't start-"

"I won't, but how am I going to do this?" Castle asked.

Beckett immediately said firmly, "Your choice. It's what I want," adding the last when he looked doubtful before he was nodding and responding huskily to her pleasure.

"Then I can do this," Castle told her before he began to thrust. He built up his speed, soon going so fast he wasn't surprised when his wife needed to wrap her legs around him. Their hips were slapping together loudly, and he tried not to focus on the sound of that and his wife's vocal expressions of her pleasure. But when she climaxed, he couldn't ignore it since her sex was greedily drawing him after her. Calling her name a few times as he spilled his release inside of her, he was clenching his teeth together when he realized she was coming again. He followed her, though it took him slightly longer that time, and tried his best not to move so roughly that he hurt her. They were eventually both still, breathing heavily in their pleasure, and he eventually moved to kiss her lightly on the lips.

As soon as her husband had pulled away from her, Beckett was turning to press against his side. "Are you alright?" she asked, since his movements had been a little jerky.

"I didn't think I was going to come twice," Castle told her honestly.

"Neither did I," Beckett said with a smile. She raised her head to press a kiss to the middle of his chest and told him, "We should rest."

"Sleep?" Castle asked.

Smiling again, Beckett said, "If you want to go ahead."

"I'm fine," Castle said. He put his free hand under his head and eventually told her, "Though…"

"I see," Beckett replied, looking at his length that was half erect at that point. "You were working hard," she told him teasingly while she turned onto her stomach. She kissed him on the lips lightly and told him, "Which is exactly what I wanted."

"Vixen," Castle breathed to her while he moved swiftly to wrap his arms around her. They kissed then and he was a little startled it wasn't that rough though he was relieved when his wife was relaxing against his side. Kissing the top of her forehead he was about to speak when he heard the rumble of thunder. "I feel a little bad," he said.

"We do have tomorrow," Beckett commented. She smiled when he was moving his head and she looked up to meet his surprised gaze saying, "I'm serious love, we can go out and do a few things, but I would like to spend the morning in the lagoon."

Breathing out hard, Castle pulled her to him and kissed her, unable to help doing so roughly. When they parted, he made her lay on her back and he took the chance to gaze over her body for some time.

Gently reaching up to him and brushing her fingers over his lips, Beckett got his attention and told him, "Are you sure you're finished for now?"

Castle was about to speak when he hesitated since he had a feeling she'd noticed his erection had returned. Clearing his throat briefly he said, "Are you?"
"To be honest I would like to rest until lunch," Beckett said, watching him looking at the clock on his nightstand.

"Well that's a relief," Castle commented, seeing it wasn't that early. He smiled when his wife was laughing and turned to her saying, "You don't feel the same?"

"Oh, I do," Beckett replied. "Your tone of voice was… exaggerated."

"I didn't intend to do that," Castle replied. "But I was serious," he added quickly in case she would think that. He leaned down to her and they kissed briefly before he was suddenly tensing up.

"What is it?" Beckett asked, not surprised at his movement.

"Would you mind if I started getting lunch together now?" Castle asked her. He was relieved when she shook her head and they were sitting up together before he said, "What're you going to do?"

"Join you," Beckett said in amusement. "You didn't think I was just going to lay here by myself, did you?" Studying him when he obviously hesitated, she said with a smile, "You did."

"I wanted you to relax," Castle said.

"While you catered to me?" Beckett asked with a smile.

"Yes," Castle said firmly. He was startled when she suddenly threw her arms around him, and they were kissing deeply. Before he could see if she was sure, she drew him back with her while she laid down. Nestled easily between her legs he said, "Lunch-"

"Can wait," Beckett told him firmly. She stared back at him easily while he studied her, and she was reaching for his hand before he pushed it away to her surprise. When he was gently fingering her sex she bit her lower lip, pressing her body up against his hand before he pulled it away.

Without a word Castle was sinking into Beckett though he was soon moving rapidly against her while they were both groaning in pleasure. They were soon switching positions, Beckett not protesting as she worked to move as hard as he'd been before the move. They kissed passionately, fondling and grasping at one another up to the point when they were climaxing, calling out to each other repeatedly until they were limp on the bed since Castle was on top of Beckett again.

"We… we need to eat," he told his wife once he felt he could speak.

"We will," Beckett replied with a smile. That was soon dropping off her face when he was gently withdrawing from her. Sighing she said, "And get back to that after."

"Oh good, I thought I was going to have to check with you," Castle said, kissing the corner of her mouth while she laughed before he was getting off the bed.

Sitting up, Beckett looked on while her husband was pulling on his pajama pants and she said, "Are you going to put anything else on?"

Pausing in turning to her, Castle finished as he asked, "Did you want me to?" When she smiled at him seductively and shook her head, he was fighting the urge to shake in joy at the sight of her before he got himself under control. "Then I'm finished," he told her, relieved he was able to do so.

"Wait for me," Beckett said with a smile, getting off the bed. She went to the dresser and pulled out the nightgown she'd brought with her, aware of her husband staring at her while she was letting the blue fabric cover her body. "You are going to be able to cook with me there, right?" she asked, turning to him.

"I'm just making sandwiches," Castle said before she was laughing and walking over to him, wrapping her arms around his neck while she spoke.

"I'm still keeping you company," Beckett replied before they were sharing a brief kiss.

"Then we better go," Castle said before he let her go and took her hand. They were walking together to the kitchen and leading her to the peninsula he told her, "I don't have that many options."

Beckett leaned against the counter slightly once she was sitting and she told him, "I didn't think I was ordering."

"Great, that makes this a lot easier for me," Castle said.

Rolling her eyes, though she was smiling at the same time, Beckett leaned back in her chair and watched her husband for a while before she said, "Anything you wanted to do today?"

Shaking his head Castle said, "Remember how I told you that you were picking everything?"

"But I still would have insisted," Beckett told him firmly.

"I know, and I might have suggested trying something on one of the paddleboards," Castle told her.

Laughing, Beckett said, "And I still would have said we don't have that kind of balance."

"Even just letting me take your pussy?" Castle asked. He wasn't surprised when Beckett froze at his wording and he said, "I would pleasure you."

"I don't think it would," Beckett replied. "We have the lagoon," she reminded him.

"Which you said tomorrow," Castle said, getting the filling of his wife's sandwich ready first.

"I did, and I'm counting on you to say what you want," Beckett said. She then smirked at her husband's startled look she told him, "I just remembered I do know how to convince you to do what you want."

"Don't," Castle told her seriously.

Smirking briefly Beckett said, "And if I want it for my birthday?"

Cursing under his breath Castle said, "Fine, but that better not be the majority of your choices today."

Beckett merely smiled at her husband before he was finishing his sandwich and giving them both some taro chips before they were turning to their bedroom. "The table?" she asked him since it was in the living room.

"I'll get it," Castle said, handing his plate to her before he was getting the table. He was relieved it fit under the awning before he went to grab the chairs while his wife was waiting. When he returned to her, he found she was standing next to the table, and he grabbed her as soon as the chairs were set.

Taking her husband's kiss eagerly, Beckett was responding to him, and they were involved with that for some time. When they finally parted to breathe, she pressed close to him and said, "We should eat."

"Yeah," Castle replied, nuzzling her lips with his own. "But we should let each other go."

"Then stop trying to reach down to my ass," Beckett said, smiling when he immediately tensed. "I can feel that, I'm not wearing anything underneath this love," she added, loving how he grasped at her tightly before he was speaking a little huskily.

"And you don't think I can feel you?" Castle asked since she had been caressing at his back.

"We should stop," Beckett told him, still smiling. She took his kiss before they were parting slowly and once they had she said, "After this we should get back to bed."

"Do you want me to leave the table and chairs here?" Castle asked.

Nodding Beckett said, "Not for us to use it; for dinner."

"That's not what I was suggesting," Castle told her before they began to eat. Since they were sitting together, they looked out at the ocean and seeing the lightning in the distance he said, "Tomorrow this is going to be gone."

"You told me," Beckett said, watching him. "We'll go to the lagoon."

Nodding, Castle turned his attention back to his plate before his wife was gently rubbing her foot against his. Watching her with wide eyes, he couldn't stop himself and leaned into her to kiss her. He was pleased when she was responding and they were involved in that for some time before they reluctantly parted, watching the storm in front of them while they continued eating their meal.
