And I wasn't surprised you mentioned how when they went with their family they'd have a great time. And I laughed at you saying you loved them aways thinking of their family and how Eliza will react, but you did have a good point that she is so much like Castle and Beckett. But I'm glad you loved how they do that! You're welcome for sharing the first half of the chapter! I was really pleased you thought the second half was a wonderful continuation of their visit to Sea World. And really happy you enjoyed the calls to both their home and then Alexis' with all their family! I was glad you liked the lunch along with their plans for dinner before the couples split for Valentine's Day the next day! And I wasn't surprised you noted them planning to be just with their spouses and love as you put it. You're welcome for sharing the second half of the chapter!).

A/N #2: The title of this chapter is a lyric from the song Learning How to Love You written by George Harrison, from his album Thirty-Three & 1/3.
Alone With My Heart
Rolling onto her side, Beckett's eyes blinked before they opened fully and she realized there was an aroma of coffee in the air. Sitting up she rubbed her eyes and when she lowered her hands she smiled since her husband was walking into the room. "You've been up," she commented.
"Not for all that long," Castle said, setting down the two mugs he had. He sat on her side of the bed and leaned into her, kissing her lightly before he said, "Happy Valentine's Day love."
"Hmm, Happy Valentine's Day," Beckett echoed before they were leaning into each other again. "You-" she started to say after their kiss before the knock on the door interrupted her.
"I'll be right back," Castle said before he was getting up.
Watching him leaving, Beckett smiled to herself before she got off the bed and went to her robe. As she pulled it on she could hear him walking down the entry and she called to him, "We're eating in here right?"
"Yeah, I intended that," Castle said. "Or I should say I was hoping you'd want to eat here."
"On the couch though," Beckett replied. She wasn't surprised he was nodding and she moved towards the table that was on the wrong side of the couch. After she'd pulled it over her husband was bringing the mugs before they were sitting and splitting the pastries he'd gotten for their breakfast. "You know croissants would have been fine right?" she told him after they'd eaten for a little.
"Yeah, but these seemed special," Castle said since there were strawberry heart shaped pastries.
"They are," Beckett said. "I'm just not sure I want a full one after the croissant."
"We can split one," Castle replied. He couldn't help smiling and said, "Would you like to eat it at the same time?"
"Rick," Beckett said.
"I can try can't I?" Castle replied in amusement.
"You can but we'll… worry about that later," Beckett said. She smiled when her husband was looking at her in a little shock and she said, "Finishing eating."
Nodding, Castle took a few bites before he sipped at his coffee and asked her, "How is it?"
"Good," Beckett said, aware he meant the coffee. "I knew it would be."
"I don't have my usual equipment," Castle commented. He wasn't surprised when his wife shrugged before he leaned into her and brushed his lips to hers before he said, "Could we feed each other at the very least?"
Beckett couldn't help laughing and she did her best to calm down quickly before she said, "Fine, but we should still split it." She smiled as he was nodding rapidly before he grabbed the knife that was with the tray brought by the employee. "What are we going to do with that?" she asked.
"I asked and they said we can let them take it at lunch," Castle replied. "Okay," he said, finishing and setting down the knife. He was a little taken aback when his wife took one half of the pastry before he could continue and he said, "So we'll start?"
"Yes," Beckett said, having been breaking off a piece before she fed him. As he quickly did the same to her she was eating before they finished and she said, "Do you mind if we brush our teeth."
"No, though I'm a little worried-" Castle started to say, feigning his concern before she was interrupting him.
"The coffee," Beckett said, doing her best not to burst out laughing before they were getting up to clean everything off. They managed to brush their teeth quickly, and back in their bedroom she said, "I hope you don't mind sitting on the couch."
"Not with this view," Castle replied, sitting with her where they'd been during breakfast. He saw a few boats on the water and then said, "I wasn't sure if you'd want everything open."
Smiling Beckett turned to him and said, "Who's going to see us? Also we're not doing anything here."
"I thought you'd want to do that," Castle agreed, nodding his head. He then took her hand before he turned to her and leaned into her, kissing her lightly on the corner of her lips. "Kate-" he started to say before she was moving to him. Taking her on his lap their lips crushed together hard and they were both groaning in response for a moment before they kissed harder. His tongue was soon slipping past her lips with her permission and they were grasping at each other, hands sliding over their shirts before he was the first to touch bare skin.
With a gasp, Beckett broke off the kiss and said breathlessly, "It's probably better we did that."
"I know," Castle said, catching his breath as well. He gently rubbed her back and said, "I'm…"
"I can feel," Beckett said with a smile.
"What do you want to do?" Castle asked her seriously as she began to caress at his hair, nails raking his scalp from time to time.
Beckett didn't answer verbally at first, instead she was leaning into him and kissing him tenderly. She wasn't surprised when her husband was responding or he was shortly after making it sensuous and they were involved in that for some time. Once they finally parted, her body felt as if it were already throbbing and she couldn't take it anymore. She got off of his lap and watched him racing to follow her before he was bending over slightly. "Are-" she started to say in concern.
"I'm okay," Castle said. "I took a step a little too… fast," he started to say before she was stopping him.
"I think it's more than that," Beckett said since she'd seen the state of his arousal. "Do you want to-"
"No," Castle interrupted her swiftly. "Just let me… walk carefully." He wasn't surprised when she was nodding once before she took his hand and walked at his pace. "Kate," he stated.
"It's alright," Beckett said. "And I want make sure you can make it to the bed."
"I did," Castle said. "Now we're here I need to ask you something," he added swiftly before she could speak.
"About?" Beckett asked, surprised he sounded so serious.
"Right now," Castle said. "Do we pleasure one another, flat out start?"
"I like the way you worded that," Beckett said in amusement. She cupped his cheek and then said, "But I want us to start, we've been waiting long enough."
"Agreed… later though?" Castle asked her.
"We will," Beckett said easily, not surprised when her husband was shuddering in pleasure. She reached for him and pulled him to her before they were kissing again. It didn't last for long and once they were apart she asked, "Can you sit for the moment?"
"Sure," Castle said before he was doing so. Looking up at her he saw she was removing her robe and tossing it to his nightstand. He was about to ask her what he was going to do with his when she was reaching for the bottom of her pajama top and he breathed out her name before she spoke with a smile.
"Should I have started with my pants?" Beckett asked him.
"No, can I t-" Castle started to say, reaching out to her.
"Not yet," Beckett said, playfully slapping his hands away. She wasn't surprised when he groaned in annoyance but turned her attention to her remaining clothes, removing them in unison before she was naked. "Your turn," she told her husband as she got onto the mattress next to him. "Unless you need my help," she told him, on her knees behind him before she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"No, just don't touch," Castle replied, his voice husky with his desire since he could feel her breasts pressed against his back. He wasn't surprised when she moved away as soon as he'd spoken and he stood carefully before he said, "Better."
"What does that mean though?" she asked him.
"I didn't walk," Castle said simply before he was taking off his glasses and handing them to her. He wasn't surprised when she put them on for a moment and said, "Still can't see?"
"Not really," Beckett replied, blinking after she had the glasses off. She saw he was pulling off his robe before his shirt followed. "I can't help now?" she asked him.
"No," Castle said firmly before he was being pulled to his wife. When she merely pulled back once he was against the bed he smiled and pulled off his pants and boxers at the same time before stepping out of them. Getting on the bed with her they were kissing, but she was pulling away to his slight annoyance before she handed over his glasses. As soon as he had them on he was reaching for her and pulling her to him for a kiss before she was bringing him down on top of her. "Love," he groaned in pleasure when they parted at the sensation of their bodies rubbing together.
Beckett pulled him back to her lips for another kiss, but she wasn't surprised when her husband was pulling away to make his way down to her breasts. "Wait," she told him as he was pausing.
"I just realized," Castle said before he was grabbing the pillows and putting them behind her. "Do you want another?" he asked once he'd finished. Relieved when she shook her head he was leaning down to her and kissing her, not lingering for very long before he moved lower on her body again. That time he was able to kiss at her breasts, doing so gently at first before he was unable to help himself. Kissing at the mounds harder he heard her moaning before she was stopping him and he looked up at her a little uncertainly before she was speaking slightly sternly.
"You don't have to treat me that delicately," Beckett said. She realized her tone and then said, "It's been a while."
"I'm in complete agreement," Castle said. "But you know I've always been like this."
"And now that you have…" Beckett said, trailing off before she smiled when her husband was chuckling.
"Good point," Castle replied once he'd calmed down. He leaned into her and was kissing her tenderly at first, waiting to see what her reaction was. Her arms wrapped more securely about him, and he was increasing the pressure of his lips on hers until they were outright dueling each other. He felt a thrill pass through him at the fact his wife had done that at the same time he was but focused on their wrestling together until he knew they needed to catch their breath.
Though she wanted to protest, Beckett soon felt Castle moving down her body and kept herself quiet, watching him and hoping he didn't feel the need for them to engage in much more foreplay. She became a little startled she hadn't thought of that in the first place and she said, "Wait love."
Freezing in his shock, Castle looked up at her and watched his wife cover her mouth with her fingers for a moment. "What?" he asked.
"Sorry, I didn't expect you to do that," Beckett replied, amusement in her tone. She then grew serious and said, "Give me your hand."
Though his first instinct was to ask why, Castle nodded after he'd studied her for a little longer. Holding out his right hand, he watched her lower it between her legs and he was brushing against her sex. Shuddering at the immediate slide of his fingertips against her he said, "Then you don't want me to do anything else."
"I'm letting you know I'm ready for you," Beckett said. "Don't take too long."
"Goddess," Castle breathed to her before he kissed her hard. He didn't linger and was soon bowing his head again to her breasts.
Crying out in joy at her husband's almost feverish kisses to her nipples and areola, Beckett was sure he would do more at that point. But when he instead began to slow down and flicked his tongue at her skin she was tense. When he next blew against those spots she was groaning in a mix of arousal and frustration. "Rick… please," she begged before she was letting out another cry at her husband's mouth enveloping her left nipple. Feeling the suckling motion he was soon instigating, she reached up and ran her fingers through his hair, his body shaking momentarily against her own. "My love… you-" she started to say before her husband was moving to her other breast.
After he'd repeated the same action there, Castle was raising his head and engaging Beckett's lips in a gentle, tender kiss. When he pulled away from her he said huskily, "Help me?" He wasn't surprised when she only nodded in response and he grabbed her hand before he realized the tips of his fingers were still damp from her. He flicked his tongue to them, seeing his wife was watching him intensely before he told her, "I won't stop, but I'm not going to fuck you."
"Can we… do our favorite for this one?" Beckett asked, smiling a little when her husband obviously hesitated.
"We might not stay in that position," Castle warned her. He felt a shudder of pleasure shoot through his body at her shrug, since it made her breasts pull up a little, and he said, "Then I was thinking of that one too." He then reached for her hand, lowering it in between them before he let her go near his stomach.
When she managed to get her husband's erection off his stomach, Beckett bit her lower lip at his groan in reaction. She focused on getting him in the right position and soon he was pressing forward, letting him go a little regretfully once the tip of his length was within her. "Now or…" she started to say before she trailed off and then let out a heavy moan at her husband sinking inside her. He did so slowly, but it was no less pleasurable until his hips were pressed against hers. She lay still for a moment, taking in the sensation of him filling her again before he was leaning down to murmur against her lips.
"Let me take your legs," Castle said. He felt his wife's nod through her lips and then pulled back though he didn't want to, reaching for her left leg to perch it on his shoulder. He wasn't surprised when she was immediately wrapping her right around him and with that set he slowly withdrew. Clenching his teeth together tightly as her moan filled his ears, he set his pace at that point and was moving as slowly as he could, hoping she wouldn't protest.
Beckett's nails dug into her husband's arms while she was taking in his thrusts, trying her best after a few to follow him though it was a little difficult at first. But she soon managed to move a bit easier since he was still going so carefully. The sensation of him sliding back and forth in her was making her fingers flex, his muscles doing the same underneath her touch. She was about to move her hands when he was leaning down to her, kissing her tenderly before she pulled away. "Rick… a little… more," she found herself gasping to tell him. "Just…" she tried to continue though she found it was too difficult.
Castle didn't say anything, instead he shifted his weight a little to change the direction his hips were moving and he could hear her enjoyment when she was gasping. He then sped up just slightly, wanting to hear her gasp again, which she was doing shortly after. Her hands slid up to his shoulders, but a moment later he found himself nearly chest to chest with her when she was pulling him down to her. He kissed her again, but kept that brief before he asked her, "Good?"
"For… now," Beckett said, arching her back a little hard. She cried out when the motion caused him to rub against her clit and she was telling him, "Too much."
"I know," Castle said, trying his best to control his speed at that point. When his wife seemed more in control he went back to his alternating between slower and slightly faster. Though he was being affected greatly by how slick she was surrounding him and the friction of his movements, he kept a close eye on her to make sure she was being pleasured. But since she was moaning and her expressions were full of absolute joy he was satisfied. Leaning down to her, he kissed her deeply and felt in her response he could speed up again. He was careful with that, but she was still breaking away from the kiss they'd been in to moan his name.
"I… I won't last long," Beckett gasped to him as he was bowing his head to kiss at her breasts.
"You will," Castle said, slowing down. He wasn't surprised when she tilted her head back but she was holding her body still and he said, "We have to stop doing… that."
Beckett could feel her lips turning up in a brief smile before she told her husband, "We won't, it makes… makes this so much better."
"Is this all you want me?" Castle teased her, going so slowly that he was only allowing the tip of his length to move in her. When she dug both her nails and fingertips into his skin he was grunting but didn't stop saying, "Then let me t-take care of you. Kate," ending on a groan when he could feel the way his wife's sex was clenching at him.
"Then fill me with your cock!" Beckett said, not surprised a little of her frustration seeped into her tone. A second later she was crying out his name since Castle had slammed into her, and she was sliding her right hand down his back before she was just at the small of it. She tried to reach lower, but her arm couldn't move further and she tried not to become frustrated since he was suckling at her breasts again. Since she couldn't do anything there, she moved her hand to his hair, caressing it and sliding her fingers into it before he pulled way and was speaking against her skin, making her shiver in pleasure.
"We… love we need…" Castle started to say before he had to stop. He did his best to gather himself and once he felt he could asked her, "Are you going to come?"
"Yes," Beckett breathed. She took her husband's sudden kiss, pleased at the feel of it before they were dueling again in her mouth. It took her a moment to realize Castle had sped up and was keeping to that rhythm but once she had she was trying her best to match him. Once she was she was faltering and cursing her body before her husband was breaking off their kiss.
"Are you going to come my love?" Castle asked her, too pleasured to try to distract himself from the sensations within him building up. Her cry of the word yes was no surprise and he slowed down so he could rock within her, spacing out his thrusts inside her a few times while she was writhing a little beneath him. "Do you want to come?" he then asked her huskily, going slowly still but without pressing harder against her hips.
"I… need to… Rick I want to feel your cum…" Beckett started to say. She wasn't surprised when her husband took the opportunity to kiss her, but as soon as she could she continued telling him, "I want to feel you filling me."
Trying not to shudder too hard at her words, Castle kissed her tenderly on the lips so he could tell her quickly, "I want that my love. Cum now Kate and I won't stop until we're exhausted."
"You'll fuck me?" Beckett nearly whispered when he leaned in to kiss her. She was startled when he went to her ear but was soon trembling in joy when he nibbled at the lobe before he was telling her very simply, "I will." At that point it was impossible to resist the pleasure that was tightening in her body and she broke, writhing much harder underneath her husband as she was calling his name. She was dimly aware of herself begging him to fill her again, but her ecstasy was too much to be able to realize what exactly she was saying to him, only that he was soon fulfilling her request to her utter delight.
Castle, feeling his wife's orgasm when she was telling him to fill her with his seed, met his own climax in a near daze. He was doing his best not to thrust too hard in her still, unsure how he managed it when he felt himself calming down. He'd pressed his face to his wife's neck eventually, and he realized why it was surrounded by heat and the scent of roses. He forced himself to raise his head and told his wife, "That was incredible."
"Hmm, it was," Beckett said, caressing his hair again. She sighed when her husband was getting off of her and she put his pillows back on his side before he was laying down. She immediately moved to press against his side and as he wrapped his arms around her said, "You're serious?"
"I was," Castle replied, knowing she was referring to her request to fuck her. "Do you think I can honestly resist that?"
"You did this time," Beckett teased him.
"I don't hear you complaining," Castle said firmly before he was moving to lay her on her back. He tried tickling her when she was grabbing his hands, telling her, "No?"
"Not yet," Beckett said before she made him move onto his stomach. She smiled at his startled look at her over his shoulder saying, "I need to," not surprised when he responded to that swiftly.
"You were trying to?" Castle asked.
"I couldn't reach," Beckett answered.
"Understandable," Castle said before he looked on while she was kissing around the small of his back. He inhaled a little hard in response to the sensation before he was jerking when she slapped his ass. "Ah… that was what you wanted?" he couldn't help asking her.
Smirking Beckett said, "Upset?"
"No," Castle said before he was grabbing for her. He was kissing her at the same time he laid her onto her back and felt her legs wrapping around his waist tightly before he pulled back. "Kate," he said warningly.
"How long did you want to wait?" Beckett replied with a smile.
"Not that long," Castle said, pretending to think that over before he was leaning into her. Kissing her sensuously he felt her arms tighten around him slightly before he was moving back and said, "And not like this."
Before she could respond, Beckett let out a cry when he was flipping them around and she couldn't help laughing since he'd let her go. Sitting up she was straddling him under his stomach and his erection before she said, "Are you sitting up?"
"I'm fine with the pillows," Castle said quickly while he was pushing himself up. He was a little startled when she was moving first and he looked on as she was getting the pillows behind him before he sat up all the way. "I told you I was okay," he commented as he held her by her hips.
"Do I look like I care?" Beckett replied, leaning into him. They were kissing deeply shortly after that and she did her best not to pull away from her husband when his hands were all over her back and ass. When they did stop she managed to tell him, "If you want the same you can."
"I hope you're serious," Castle said, looking up at her a little hopefully.
"Just once," Beckett replied. She was crying out when her husband slapped at her ass before gripping it with both his hands and she told him, "We don't have to do that much."
"Are you sure? I can't test that you know," Castle said. "Well, I could but you'd have to take care of my fingers."
"Pervert," Beckett said with a smile and leaning into him. She was kissing him deeply and she wasn't surprised he was quick to take over before they were running their hands around each other's bodies they could reach. When they stopped she pushed back a little on his lap and looked down at his erection, taking it with her hand and rubbing the tip of him with her thumb. Hearing his groan of joy she did it a second time and then brought the digit up to her mouth. Sucking it off she wasn't surprised when she heard the groan under her husband's breath before she told him, "Are you letting me control this?"
"I… can't promise I won't slip out," Castle replied. He wasn't surprised when she raised her eyebrow and said, "Which of us is going to take care of it?"
"I think I'll need to," Beckett said firmly. She tried her best not to laugh at her husband nodding once and raised her body so she could lower herself on him and take him within her sex. When their hips were pressed together she told him, "Can I stay like this?" not surprised at his slightly strained response.
"Hopefully not for that l-long," Castle said, stammering a little since she had clenched her sex deliberately. He squeezed at her hips once before he was wrapping his arms around her waist just as she was leaning into him. He wasn't surprised when they were lingering, but he was when she continued to clench around him, ending their kiss. "You… you need to stop," he told her a little seriously when he could speak.
"A little more?" Beckett asked. She wasn't surprised when her husband's response was to groan and lean against her and she gently brushed her lips to the top of his head. "Love?" she then said.
Forcing himself to tilt his head back, Castle took her gentle kiss before she was bracing herself. He did the same and they were groaning in pleasure at the same time before they were parting and she was moving. He moved his hands to her hips again when she pushed herself up and he told her, "You decide how fast-" before her sex clenching around him again was stopping him abruptly. "Kate," he breathed since she had been up on him at the same time.
"I knew," was all that Beckett said since she wanted to get back to moving on him. When she did she was rocking instead of bouncing, feeling her husband's hands moving around to the small of her back. As he gripped there she brushed her breasts against his chest, moaning while he was hissing out a breath between his clenched teeth. "Rick, I love you," she couldn't help telling him.
"I love you too… goddess you're… beautiful," Castle said before she was slowing down. Though he knew he could protest, he was eager to respond to her when she kissed him. He was a little surprised she wasn't working her sex around him but didn't mention it since she was swiftly bouncing on him again. "Did I… mention you're so fucking good?" he groaned to her.
"Am I?" Beckett said, deliberately making that was question, enjoying his hands running over the small of her back.
"Yes," Castle nearly hissed when she was flexing her muscles around his length. "Vixen," he breathed, slapping her ass firmly. That made her pull up too much and he was cursing while he fell out of her before he said, "We're keeping this position," startled when she laughed before she spoke.
"You don't want to now?" Beckett asked him.
"Oh I do," Castle replied before he kissed her. He was pleased when she was responding though he was soon ending it when his member was in between them.
"Did I hurt you?" Beckett asked in concern.
"No," Castle said, though he was breathing out a little hard since she was taking him in hand. He held her by her hips again as she raised herself above him and he was squeezing a little once he was inside her again. After he was fully sheathed inside of her he was grunting when she was shortly after beginning to move on him. He wasn't surprised she was rocking on him, and he moved his hands to her ass. He squeezed at it gently before they were kissing at her instigation, and he held her tightly to him until she pulled away.
Though she was aware of what she was risking, Beckett began to push herself up and down, watching her husband and the pleasure appearing on his expression while she did so. She wasn't unaffected herself, and she could hear her short gasps and moans with each movement she made. She and her husband were exchanging kisses every so often, but eventually they were moving together until she was breaking first, doing her best not to pull away from her husband too far as her ecstasy rushed through her body. Calling his name, she was relieved when Castle was following her shortly after and she held him to her while they were moving until she was first to still. Biting her lower lip at her husband's jerking motions against her, she kissed the side of his head when he came to a stop and was leaning against her. "We're not doing that for a while," she murmured to him.
"The position?" Castle asked with a smile. He wasn't surprised when she only nodded and he then rubbed her back gently before he told her, "Now what?"
Beckett did her best not laugh before she said, "I'm getting off of you." She wasn't surprised when he nodded before she was carefully raising herself and then moving to her side of the bed. Her husband was quick to follow and she smiled at him saying, "What're you thinking?"
"To do?" Castle asked. When his wife nodded he moved to lay on his side before he said, "Well… I have no idea what time it is so let me check before I finish my answer," smiling since she was laughing as he was moving.
"How much longer?" Beckett asked, moving after him since he was laying on his stomach to look at the alarm clock instead of his phone or watch.
"Did you want to eat lunch early or- ah! Kate," Castle said, hissing for a moment when his wife was laying across his back.
"Yes?" Beckett replied in amusement.
"Vixen," Castle immediately told her, looking over his shoulder at her. "What were you planning on doing there?" he asked her.
"We can eat in an hour," Beckett said simply, smiling at him.
Breathing out hard when she then got off of him, Castle turned back around and said, "What do you want?"
"Oh no," Beckett replied in amusement. "I asked what you wanted to do, you never let me know."
Breathing out a second time, Castle then said, "To be honest I didn't have anything planned." He reached out to her then and gently rubbed her lower lip with his thumb before he said, "Maybe just this," before he leaned into her and was kissing her tenderly. That didn't last long, and they were deepening it at the same time before she pulled way from him and he asked, "No?"
"I don't know if we'll be able to handle just that," Beckett replied.
"And you want me to fuck you," Castle recalled suddenly. When she nodded he leaned into her and was kissing her deeply before he was pulled on top of her. "Love," he breathed huskily to her.
"No?" Beckett said with a smirk. She wasn't surprised when her husband was kissing at her neck abruptly and she wrapped her arms and legs around him before he hesitated. "What's wrong?" she said when he didn't move or speak to her.
"Are you ready?" Castle asked her, his voice sounding strained. He was a little startled when she didn't respond, and instead led him to her breasts before he realized what she wanted.
As her husband was quickly kissing at her mounds, Beckett's eyes closed tightly since the pleasure was going through her already. He moved to her nipples and she whispered his name before he was kissing her deeply for a moment. When he returned to her chest she moved a little, spreading her legs wide and making him raise his head. "Please," she begged him before he was murmuring against her lips.
"Will you do something for me?" Castle asked her. He wasn't surprised when she was nodding and he said, "Keep your legs apart, as wide as you can."
"I might not be able to the entire time," Beckett warned him.
"I don't care," Castle said seriously before he was kissing her hard. Feeling her responding to him he moved before she was reaching for his erection suddenly. He pulled away from her when he felt her hand and then told her, "Let me…"
Though she didn't want to, Beckett finally let him take himself in hand before he was entering her. She tensed for a moment, since she hadn't thought he'd be doing that so quickly, but a moment later she relaxed since he'd stopped. "I'm okay," she assured him.
"We have to take a bath after," Castle said. When his wife was frowning he nearly collapsed on her in how tense he was holding himself before he said, "You'll be sore."
"I won't," Beckett replied firmly. "Now give me what I want."
"Fuck my love," Castle groaned in pleasure. He brushed his lips to hers, to give them both a moment to prepare, and then rammed into her as soon as he was looking down at her. Hearing the cry of his name as it left her lips, he held himself still again, that time having a lot more trouble since she was still tight around him. Since she was aroused that was adding to what he was feeling and he told her, "As long as it's what you want."
"I want your cock," Beckett told him firmly though her voice was trembling a little. "Fuck me Rick."
Castle's response to that was to kiss her just before he began to thrust into her, going slowly at first and then speeding up. When he heard her cries of joy in response, the sound of their hips slapping together was following that and he realized she was using his request for their position to her advantage. Ending their kiss by pulling back, he was looking down at her hips the best he could and could see she was using her feet to meet his pace. "I want to feel your pussy," he said against her lips.
Trembling a little at her husband's tone of voice, Beckett kissed him briefly before she told him, "You are love."
"More," Castle managed to say.
"You will," was all that Beckett managed to get out before her husband was kissing her again. He continued to move hard against her and she was crying into his mouth before they were moving almost wildly together. She wasn't sure how much longer they were doing that, only when everything inside of her seemed to snap and she was calling his name repeatedly. When he joined her seconds after she was immensely pleased and she wanted to tell him how much she loved him but she was unable to speak. It wasn't until she was calm that she could tell her husband was just finishing his orgasm and she waited, holding him with both her arms and legs before she said, "Rick?"
Groaning Castle said, "Are you alright?"
"I was just about to ask you that," Beckett said, unable to help smiling. She watched him pulling away from her and sighed as he withdrew a moment later and then told him, "We'll have to rest."
"For lunch," Castle said. He raised his head to see the time and said, "Yeah, we have time," before he was turning to her and pulled her against his side as he lay on his back. "Do you need a bath?" he asked after they were laying still for a while.
"No, I'm fine," Beckett replied easily. She kissed his collarbone when he was squeezing her closer to him and said, "But later we can take one… before we get ready for dinner," not surprised when he was responding immediately.
"Good point," Castle said. "Do you promise?"
"You're going to make me promise that?" Beckett asked with a laugh, raising her head.
"I'd like to," Castle said.
"I'm not," Beckett replied in amusement. "I already promised that I would."
"True," Castle said, recalling the day before. He wrapped his other arm around her and said, "But this isn't bad right now."
"No," Beckett said. They were quiet again before she told him, "Even though it isn't raining it is nice."
"It is," Castle agreed. "Does this mean we're going to the couch for lunch?"
"I would like to see the view outside," Beckett said before he was suddenly jerking against her. "What?" she asked laughingly.
"Sorry, I got an idea," Castle replied.
"I think I know what it is," Beckett said in amusement. "A picnic, right?"
"Were you planning on being clothed?" Castle responded with his own question.
"I would like to be," Beckett replied, smiling. "Hopefully you too because we're not cleaning each other up."
"I will be," Castle replied firmly. "What do you think about getting ready right now?"
"Sure," Beckett said. She smiled when her husband laughed and said, "Nothing against you but I'd like to walk."
"So would I," Castle said, about to sit up when his wife was stopping him and putting her hand on his brace as she spoke in slight concern.
"How's your knee?" Beckett asked him.
"Not bad," Castle said. "Seriously, but I should move around too."
Nodding, Beckett still watched him as he got off the bed though she was soon satisfied he was telling the truth. She went to one of her drawers in the dresser and took out the nightgown she'd brought for that day, going to her robe after she'd pulled it on. "I know you're watching me," she told her husband teasingly.
"Can you blame me?" Castle replied with a smile. Once she had her robe closed and tied over her he did the same with his own and went to her, kissing her on the cheek. "You have to let me know what you want," he said, taking her hand and leading her to the living room.
"You know we never discussed dinner," Beckett said. "Should we order something special or-"
"I have something planned for that," Castle interrupted.
"And can I know?" Beckett said, smiling already since she had a feeling as to what her husband's response was going to be.
"It's a surprise," Castle said simply. "But don't worry, you'll enjoy it."
"I trust you," Beckett said, continuing to smile since she was aware her husband was a little unsure. She squeezed his arm and then turned her attention to the menu he had open, studying it for a little before she said, "Since we're having a picnic, I'll go with a sandwich."
"Me too," Castle replied. "Which?"
"I think the turkey," Beckett said after seeing all the options for those. "You?" she asked, looking at her husband.
"The club," Castle said easily. "Your side?"
"The salad," Beckett said. She wasn't surprised when her husband nodded and she kissed his cheek while he got his phone to dial their order in. She went to the windows and was looking down at the bay before she heard him finishing behind her. "All set?" she asked, as he was walking up to her.
"It'll be here in about a half hour," Castle replied, wrapping his arm around her waist. He squeezed it gently and said, "You don't want to eat here?"
"No," Beckett said simply before she was turning to him. "I'd like to stay close to the bed."
"Vixen," Castle said, wrapping both his arms around her and kissing her. He was doing so hungrily, and with her response as encouragement he was lingering for as long as he could. When they parted he said, "We can sit right now."
"But we can't overdo it," Beckett commented. She smiled when her husband looked startled and she said, "If it's a woman who brings the food…"
"Good point," Castle said before he leaned into her and was brushing his lips against hers. "Okay, so if we're not going to take that any further…"
Beckett laughed at his trailing off before she said, "We'll do that after we eat." She wasn't surprised when he nodded and she then said, "We should get the room ready."
"True," Castle said, recalling the need to move the couch over so they could sit at the window. He let go of her but very quickly took her hand before they were walking back into the bedroom. He pulled the couch out of the way while she brought over two blankets and a sheet before there was a knock on the door.
Not surprised her husband was kissing her on the cheek as he left, Beckett turned her attention to the setup before she heard Castle closing and locking the door behind the man that had brought everything. Stepping out she asked, "Want some help?"
"Yeah, you know I was thinking of bringing the coffee table into here," Castle said, letting her take her plate.
"We have the couch to use if we need it," Beckett said simply before they were walking back to it. She sat first, her husband following her before she was setting their drinks on the small table that went with the couch. They began eating, watching the bay for a while, and she said, "For a Tuesday I'm surprised there are so many people boating."
"I think it's the weather," Castle commented. "Though… I didn't want to talk about that," he said, a little taken aback when his wife turned from the view to him with a smile before she spoke.
"No? Then how's your sandwich?" Beckett asked him.
"Good, still not what I want to talk about," Castle replied. When she raised her eyebrow slightly at him he told her, "The fruit bowl."
"What about it?" Beckett asked, trying to suppress her smile.
"What're your plans for it," Castle stated firmly. "And don't just say to eat it."
"You'll find out once we finish," Beckett said simply. She cupped his cheek when he frowned and then told him, "Eat."
"Fine," Castle said, pretending to be annoyed with that before he turned back to his food. She did the same and they looked back outside again before they were talking idly about the next day's plans. Once they finished he took everything to the tray that was on the table in the entry and he set it outside as his wife had told him to do. Once he was back in the room with her he said, "We're keeping that with us?"
Shrugging Beckett said, "Until dinner." She moved to sit on the blankets and after her husband had sat next to her in a rush she told him with a smile, "Would you like to start on the fruit."
"Not really," Castle said. He couldn't help smiling at how surprised his wife appeared and he reached for her robe, untying it before he said, "But I'm only going to do that."
Smirking at him, Beckett reached up to take the robe off before her husband was tossing it onto the couch. When he was turning back to her she wrapped her arms around him and was kissing him deeply. He responded a second later and she trembled in joy at the feel of his hands through her thin nightgown. She gently slid her tongue across his lower lip before his was meeting hers in between their lips and they lightly flicked at one another before his was delving into her mouth. She moaned deeply before her husband was beginning to lay her back and she stopped him the best she could.
"Just a little," Castle murmured against her lips.
"Alright," Beckett said before her husband was capturing her lips again. She held onto him tightly while they were dueling together and she could feel through his robe and clothing his arousal, making her pull away to tell him, "That… that was a little."
About to protest, Castle paused and then said, "Please tell me you have something in mind."
"I do," Beckett replied before he was getting off of her. She reached for his robe and untied it saying, "You know how we saw that article about the restaurant in the city that was allowing people to eat off a man or woman's body?"
"Yes, we both thought it was disgust… oh," Castle started to say. "You want to," he said, hoping she wouldn't find his eager tone a turn off.
Beckett smiled and slid her hands under the robe onto his shoulders telling him, "Yes, off of you."
"I… okay," Castle said slowly.
Unable to help laughing, Beckett leaned against her husband and told him, "You can do that for me, but-"
"Half and half?" Castle asked her. He wasn't surprised she was obviously considering that before she nodded and he kissed her deeply. He kept that brief before they were standing up at the same time and he rushed to take off his robe, tossing it with hers. Since they had grabbed the bowl of fruit he followed her to the bed when she stopped him with a smile before she reminded him of what they needed to do.
"You know we need to shower first, right?" Beckett asked him.
"Right," Castle said, glancing at the mattress briefly before he was letting her pull him to the bathroom. He grabbed towels for them and they entered the shower together before they were washing off swiftly, watching each other since he was aware his wife wanted to hurry. After they had finished he dried himself off while watching her doing the same herself. "Am I set?" he asked her.
"Yes," Beckett said with a smile before she was going to where he'd placed his glasses and brace next to his sink.
"Don't," Castle told her. He was smiled when she looked at him in surprise and explained, "I don't want it to get in the way, in case you want to eat there at all."
Beckett hesitated for a moment before she finally nodded and said, "Alright, but I'm bringing it with us for after." She wasn't surprised when her husband was about to speak and she held up her finger to stop him say, "I don't care how it looks when you put it on; it needs to be on."
"Okay," Castle said, knowing he couldn't really fight her on that. They walked out to the bed together and he laid back before saying, "Is this order going to work?"
"It will," Beckett replied easily, getting the bowl. She looked at the berries inside and tilted it towards her husband questioningly.
"It was available," Castle said swiftly. "Unless you want another?"
"No, you're just going to have to stay still," Beckett told him firmly. She did her best not to laugh when he nodded seriously and she soon turned her attention to the berries. She took out a raspberry and set it in between his nipples before she was moving to get another. She set them all over his body where she felt they'd stay and as soon as she was done she leaned down to him and started with the one highest on his chest.
Grunting when he soon realized his wife was deliberately getting juice onto his skin, Castle did his best to remain still as she was working her way down. Though he hadn't needed to worry about his brace, the last few berries she had put were around his stomach and his erection which by the time she finished was back in full force. "You made a mess," he said a little hoarsely.
"That was the point," Beckett replied easily. She then covered her husband's mouth with her hand saying, "And if you want to do the same, go ahead." She couldn't help laughing briefly when her husband was nodding seriously and she pulled back to begin licking the juices off of him. She took her time in that and wasn't surprised when her husband was groaning in his obvious enjoyment before she was sitting up. "I-" she started to say before her husband was grabbing her abruptly and laying her on her back. "The berries?" she asked him.
"They're fine," Castle replied before he leaned down to her and was crushing her lips with his own. He did that for a time and then pulled back saying, "Are you ready?"
"Your brace," Beckett said. She wasn't surprised when he immediately hesitated and she sat up, kissing his cheek and telling him, "I know love, but I want you to have this before we start up again."
Castle was about to speak when she was getting the berries out of the way onto her nightstand and he sighed before he sat where she had been. Since she was holding the brace out for him he grabbed it and pulled it over his foot and then up his leg before he got closer to his knee. He had to use a little force there and since it was easier he laid down to wriggle it on with his leg up in the air. Once it was finally set, he said, "Okay, hopefully this will help you for once you're done," glancing at her when she was responding.
