"Hi Gram! Grandpapa!" Eliza said, hurrying up to them at the lounge chairs.
"Hello kiddo," Martha said with a smile. "How was it?"
"Fun," Eliza said. "Did you know there was a bowling game in Mommy and Daddy's suite?"
"I didn't, did you play with that?" Martha said, putting her youngest granddaughter on her lap.
"Me too Gram," Josie said, tugging her sleeve.
"So you had fun," Martha commented with a smile.
"A lot," Eliza said. She then turned to look for her parents and seeing they were gone frowned saying, "Where did they go?"
"They'll be back," Jim said. He glanced out and said, "There are the others."
"Everyone?" Julia said, turning from where she'd seen her parents leaving.
"Almost, my family's there," Mari told her friend.
"Go," Julia told her with a smile. She watched her heading to her parents and sister before she realized her sister was wrapping her arms around her waist. "What is it?" she asked.
"Mama and Dada?" Josie asked.
"They went somewhere," Julia told her. "But they'll be back soon," she assured her.
"My parents too," Mari said, walking over.
"And our mums," Marie said, reaching them.
"Our parents too," Jacob said. He glanced back and said, "We're all here now."
"How was your dinner?" Julia asked Eve and Peter.
"Good, but we're not sure why we're here this early," Eve commented.
"I think there's going to be some music," Clive said.
Turning to look, Julia saw there was a DJ to the left of the screen and she was about to speak before some music started playing. "We were going to go in the pool before but this isn't too bad," she said to the other older kids.
"Of course you'd think that," Kathleen said teasingly to her.
"You don't want to dance?" Mari asked with a smile.
"Who'd I'd dance with?" Kathleen asked in a mockingly exasperated tone.
"Any of us," Clive said.
"He's right," Julia said before she was taking Mari's hand and pulling her with her to the open area where other people were dancing.
"Did you get everything figured out?" Jim said to Skye as she and the other adults were returning.
"We did," the investigator said firmly. She smiled and then said, "But not quite yet, we'll be right before the movie starts."
"What're you singing Mum?" a voice said.
Turning with the other adults, Mary said, "You're not dancing?"
"Not right now," Ivy said simply. "But you're singing?"
"It was a request from the captain," Skye said. She smiled when her second youngest looked startled and said, "He was where we were just now, he'll be here in the back until the movie starts and then he's going back to the bridge."
"Did you know him?" Ivy asked.
"No," Skye said. "But it didn't matter, it was an easy request to fulfill."
"You're singing Queen," Ivy gasped before her mother could continue.
"Nice guess, but I'm not," Skye replied with a smile. She couldn't help laughing when her daughter looked disappointed and said, "We'll be singing something, don't worry."
"Right," Castle said, looking at the others when the investigator gave him a pointed look. "So I'm sure you guys want to know what we're going to do at the next port tomorrow," he directed to the kids. He laughed when the younger ones were playfully pestering him to tell them before he stopped them and said, "Okay, so you know this time we're going back to the U.S. Virgin Islands but we're stopping at St. Thomas. And our excursion is called Magens Bay Beach Break."
"We're going to the beach again?" Eve asked. At the nod from the writer she smiled and said, "Cool."
"You don't mind?" Brad asked his daughter in obvious surprise. "It's basically all we're doing this trip."
"With the way the water is out here?" Jacob asked.
"And the beaches," Eve added.
When the other older kids were agreeing with the two, Castle said, "Great since you already know what we're doing our last stop of the cruise."
"Do we?" Julia asked, smiling when her father was frowning at her. "There's stuff to do there."
"Have you been looking at the excursion for there?" Beckett asked.
"Yeah, out of curiosity," Julia replied.
"We all did," Mari said then. "And you got what we're going to use right?"
"We did," David said first.
"So did we," Mary added.
"And us," Brad and Castle then added.
"Our family too," Nkosi said with a smile when Maddy and Keo were looking at him and his husband. "But you're finding out the day we go."
When the kids started to complain about that, Beckett stopped them quickly and told them, "It's partially a surprise, there are two birthdays that day."
"Three," Castle said swiftly.
"Dad," Julia complained.
"Right, I should say four, since Josie's birthday is pretty soon," Castle said jokingly, not surprised at the way Julia was rolling her eyes.
"Her birthday will be separate," Beckett told him firmly.
"Both of ours," Julia protested when her mother didn't continue.
"There won't be that much," Beckett told her second oldest placatingly. "But for now, I think the DJ is trying to get your attention," she then told Skye.
Startled, the investigator soon saw she was right and Skye excused herself and Mary from them before they hurried over to the man.
"Maybe she will sing Queen?" Ivy said slowly to her sisters.
"Maybe," Marie said, trying not to laugh at her sister's tone.
"I hope we can dance," Eliza said eagerly.
"Who're you going to dance with?" Julia asked.
"My friends," Eliza said in a matter of fact tone of voice. She smiled widely and then told her sister, "You won't?"
"Yeah, I just hope they don't ask us to professionally dance," Julia answered. "Otherwise everyone's going to ask for an autograph." She then turned with the others at the sound of the DJ getting everyone's attention and introducing Skye and Mary.
Beckett looked around at the cheers from some people and she glanced at her husband before smiling as the DJ was talking about the captain's requests. "Requests?" she and Castle said at the same time. But as soon as they'd said that, the DJ explained the captain wanted to dance with his wife before returning to the bridge. She wasn't surprised when the first song was by Queen; expecting that; but was at the title.
"Now she can dance," Castle murmured to his wife as they were looking at Julia who was talking to Mari and hurrying back to where they'd danced before.
"I think she was going to anyway," Beckett replied with a smile before she looked at Josie who suddenly left them. She didn't say anything, since she had a feeling already where she was going and nodded to Josie when she looked at her after reaching her grandparents. Looking at her husband, she was a little startled at the expression on his face and was about to ask him what was wrong when he took her hand.
"Can we?" Castle asked her.
"Yes," Beckett said after she had studied him for a moment and was smiling again. She got up when he did and let him pull her over to the 'dance floor' where others were gathering just as the music for the song began. She and her husband were dancing though she was glancing at the two women while they were singing together.
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
You promised me you'd keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I'd never
Never be angry with you
I don't wanna feel like a stranger, no
'Cause I'd rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many time
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I'd never
Never be angry with you
I must be strong so she won't know
How much I miss her
I only hope as time goes on
I'll forget her
My body's aching, can't sleep at night
I'm too exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I'll eat my heart out 'cause I love
Love, love, love her
Come on baby, let's get together
I'll love you baby, I'll love you forever
I'm trying hard, to stay away
What made you change, what did I say?
Ooh, I need your loving tonight
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving
Ooh, I need your loving, baby, tonight
At the guitar solo, Julia and Mari stopped dancing before she saw their other friends had partnered up and were still dancing. "Amateurs?" Mari asked jokingly.
"No," Julia said with a laugh when their friends were slowing down and stopping as well. She glanced at her parents in time to see her dad spinning her mother as Beckett was laughing before she turned her attention back to the song since she knew Skye and Mary were going to sing again.
Ooh, I need your loving tonight
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
Gave me no warning, how could I guess
I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving, tonight
Once they stopped, Beckett kissed Castle's cheek and said, "We're staying here?"
"For the next one," Castle said, squeezing her hand he'd kept a hold on.
"Thank you," Skye said as everyone there was applauding or crying out. "And I hope you won't mind a bit of a slower song. Captain Sutherland requested this since his wife has joined us on this cruise and after we're back in Florida they will be celebrating their thirty ninth anniversary." She paused there when the audience was applauding the couple and she and Mary did the same before she then continued saying, "And as a special request he's asked me to sing their song and they've said anyone that wants to join in is more than welcome to." When there was applause again she smiled and then nodded to the DJ before he was starting the song and she and Mary were singing, her wife vocalizing the responding lines with her.

Letting go of Beckett, as they'd been dancing again, Castle applauded the two women before they were turning to the captain while he and his wife were stepping on stage.
After they'd shaken the hands of the couple, Skye took Mary's and they returned to everyone while the captain was telling them to enjoy the movie. While the two McDouglas women were hugging their daughters the DJ was then telling everyone the movie would start as soon as popcorn and desserts were served.
"Dessert?" the younger kids exclaimed.
"Easy, we'll get it soon," Castle said as Josie and Eliza were tugging at his hands.
"What are we getting? The popcorn or dessert?" the little girl asked.
"You'll see," Beckett said simply.
"Is that what you went over… there for?" Eliza then inquired. When her parents nodded she then said, "Can I watch the movie with my friends."
"We thought you would," Beckett said with a smile. "Once they bring dessert."
"Sure," Eliza said before she was smiling at her baby sister. "Where's she going to sit?"
"Where she wants," Castle replied before he saw cast members were walking out to where people were sitting or standing. "Speaking of which…" he said to the toddler.
"Who do you want to sit with while we watch the movie?" Julia asked, having walked back to her family at her mother's gesture.
"Gram," Josie said, smiling up at her.
"Well, your grandfather will be with us if that's alright," Martha said jokingly.
"Oh, okay," Josie said seriously.
"I'll be sitting in the chair next to yours," Jim explained, trying not to laugh when Josie went over to him and hugged him. He picked her up and said, "If you want to sit with me too then just let me know."
When Josie nodded, cast members were arriving and giving them their popcorn and bags of candy and they soon were moving to their seats as the movie was beginning.
"You don't mind?" Castle couldn't help asking his wife with a smile while they were settled on their lounge chair. "As many times we've seen this movie?"
"I would have said something," Beckett said in amusement. "Now quiet, or Julia's not going to be happy hearing us talk."
"Probably not," Castle said. He was smiling at the way his wife was shaking in her suppressed laughter before he wrapped his arm around her waist.
Shifting a little against her husband's side, Beckett couldn't help smiling when he pressed a kiss to her temple before they leaned against one another watching the opening song of the movie as their kids and the ones around them were singing in response.
"Today was a lot of fun," Eve said to her boyfriend as he sat at her feet since she was on a lounge chair.
"A ton," Peter said, smiling when his girlfriend laughed softly.
"And I enjoyed dancing with you too," Eve said.
"That was fun," Peter replied. "Julia-"
"Are you going to ask if I mind you two dancing?" Eve interrupted.
"No, Julia was watching us during the second song and she said I should teach you the Waltz," Peter explained.
"That would be nice," Eve told him.
"Really?" Peter asked, surprised. "I mean, I sort of danced with you before but…"
"Really," Eve echoed simply before he was hurrying to get up. "Right now?"
"Yeah, we have a lot of time, luckily that movie was short… and early," Peter said before she followed him and was standing. "It's pretty simple, just step in a box step," he said once he had his arm around her and they were holding hands.
With her other hand on his shoulder, Eve asked, "Like in that Will and Grace episode?"
"Yeah, they were right about the steps," Peter said, nodding. "Watch our feet," he then told her before he was instructing her. After a little bit she started to understand how they should move around and they were going over the verandah before he had to spin them away from the wall, both of them laughing before they were stopping. "You did a great job," he told her as he took her other hand in his.
"You too," Eve said teasingly. She bit her lower lip when they both suddenly grew serious and gazing at her boyfriend she was soon moving to wrap her arms around him tightly. "Peter?" she asked him.
"Yeah?" the teen asked.
"I'm so happy we're together," Eve said.
"Me too," Peter said before he leaned into her and they were kissing gently. He wasn't sure what pushed him to do it, but he was suddenly brushing his tongue to her lips before she was gasping and pulling away. "Sorry, I'm so sorry I-" he started to say in a slight panic before she was kissing him. He felt relieved at that but was tensing for a moment when her tongue brushed to his lower lip and they were slowly parting. "There's more to that," he said jokingly, hoping she was happy with both kisses.
"A little," Eve said. She then bit at her lower lip before she said, "That was really nice."
"It was," Peter said before he froze and then whirled around.
"I think they're still out," Eve said with a smile, watching him. When he turned back around to her she said, "But I get the feeling they'll be back soon."
"Unfortunately?" Peter asked, his voice going a little higher at the end of his question. He was smiling as his girlfriend was laughing and he raced to embrace her back when she did so to him before they parted at the sound of the door to the suite opening.
"Hey, we're back," Julia said, stepping out and closing the door.
"Everyone else?" Peter asked in confusion.
"Getting changed. They want to watch another cruise episode before we have to go to bed," Julia said. She studied the pair and said, "Hopefully you'll come in."
"We will right now," Eve said firmly. She watched her boyfriend head inside and looked at Julia saying, "Why you?"
Smiling, since she knew her friend was genuinely curious, Julia said, "Your brother wanted to, we told him no. Clive said he didn't want to interrupt you smooching. And the other three said I was closer in age to you and Peter was my dance partner." She shrugged and then said, "Whatever that means."
"Could… could you see us?" Eve then asked.
"Yeah, but they won't say anything, I made them promise," Julia said. "Mostly the boys," she then added in a rush.
"I'm not surprised, we better go inside too," Eve told her before they were walking to the door.
Going in first, Julia headed to the bedroom before she hurriedly slipped inside though soon saw Mari was in the bathroom. She took the chance and changed as fast as she could before the door was opening. "They're inside," she said.
"I figured," Mari replied with a wide smile. She then said, "How was she?"
"They were both happy," Julia said, aware of what her friend was really wondering. "And I can't stand it anymore."
"Jealous?" Mari asked, not surprised when her friend was sighing and nodding. "I agree."
"Yeah? But what're we going to do?" Julia replied.
"You could talk to your crush," Mari replied. "Peter's your age and he's been dating already."
"I guess," Julia said with another sigh. She then shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm looking forward to tomorrow."
"Me too, we better go so we can watch," Mari said after hesitating for a moment.
Julia was about to speak when there was a knock on the door and they jumped before getting up as she called, "We're ready, hold on."
"I was going to say, it's about time," Jacob said jokingly to the two when they came out into the bedroom.
"We didn't take that long," Julia said before she gasped. "I have to brush my teeth! Hold on."
"Did you?" Eve asked Mari after the teen had disappeared.
"Yeah, I forgot to remind her," the girl said. "But she'll be back out soon." Sitting they were quiet for a little before she said, "Which one are we going to watch?"
"I was thinking the Diamond Princess one," Jacob said, looking at the episodes they could watch.
"Sounds good," Julia said, walking back in. "I'm done," she said when everyone was looking at her. "And let's start so we can see the whole thing." She sat with Mari while Jacob was getting the episode ready and glanced at Eve and Peter, seeing the former leaning against the other before the narration started on screen.
Sitting next to his wife on the couch, Castle said, "You're tired."
"Is that a statement or a question?" Beckett asked with a smile.
"No idea," Castle said honestly, smiling at his wife's laughter though she was soon calming herself down.
"I am a little, but I don't need to go to bed just yet," Beckett replied eventually. She then grew serious and told him, "I remember what we talked about before Rick."
Not responding verbally, Castle reached for his wife's hand and pulled her close before they kissed sweetly. When they parted he asked, "What do you want to do?"
Smiling at that, Beckett shook her head and said, "Not now, we'll talk about that once we're in bed." She looked on while her husband was bowing his head so he could kiss at her palm and she reached over with her other to gently caress his hair. "Rick," she said eventually when he hadn't stopped kissing around her skin.
Looking up at her, Castle didn't speak, instead moving to kiss her deeply though he wasn't lingering for long after she was responding. Once they were apart he pressed his forehead to hers telling her, "I think we should move there now."
"Agreed," Beckett replied immediately. She was then crying out briefly when he was scooping her up in his arms while he stood and then began to laugh. "I'm not surprised," she told him teasingly while she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Would it surprise you if I told you I wanted to watch you undress?" Castle asked, moving soon into the bedroom.
"Hmm, not really," Beckett said before he was setting her down next to the bed. Like him she wasn't letting him go and they kissed sensuously for a while before their hands were moving to slip under their clothes and caressing each other's skin, ending that kiss before they were panting to catch their breath.
"I wasn't planning on doing that," Castle said, moving to zip up his wife's sundress.
"Don't," Beckett told him quickly before he could pull on it that much.
"No?" Castle asked, a little startled. When she shook her head he said, "For… later?"
Beckett couldn't help laughing and said, "Do you want me to undress last?"
"Please," Castle nearly begged her before she was letting go of him.
"Then you might want to start," Beckett told him pointedly. She smiled when he made a brief face before he was letting her go, and she looked on while he was unbuttoning his top.
"You don't want to sit?" Castle asked her.
"No," Beckett replied firmly. Once he had his top off she couldn't keep herself still and reached out to him, lightly caressing at his chest. When he grabbed her wrists gently to stop her she said, "You can do the same for me."
"I plan to, but I don't know if you should keep doing that," Castle said. When his wife looked down in between them he said swiftly, "Not that."
"But I could help you," Beckett said simply.
Shuddering in pleasure Castle managed to gasp out, "Vixen," before he was doing his best to distract himself by opening his fly. It didn't help since his wife was stepping closer to him and he said, "Be… careful."
"I will," Beckett said, biting back the desire to remind him that she knew already. But she turned her attention to what she was doing, gently reaching into his boxers and pulling out his erection carefully though he was still groaning. "Okay?" she asked as she stepped back to allow him to remove the last of his clothes.
"Yeah, I'll be fine," Castle said, straightening up carefully before he was reaching around his wife.
Beckett was smiling as her husband was unzipping her dress the rest of the way, though it wasn't much, and she told him, "Not until my top is off."
"I'm stopping," Castle said swiftly, not surprised when she was laughing briefly before she was removing her sundress. After she had that off he watched her getting the bra of her bikini off and he was moving to her quickly. Caressing at her breasts he told her, "When we're on the bed…"
"And?" Beckett asked him in surprise when he didn't continue.
"I'll tell you when we're there," Castle said simply, moving away from her so she could finish.
Though she was confused, Beckett removed the bottoms of her bikini and then moved immediately into her husband's arms before they were kissing. Since she could, her hands were trailing over his back before she was squeezing firmly at his ass which ended up interrupting their kiss.
"Kate," Castle groaned when she did it a second time. He let go of her, though he had been about to grab her ass himself and picked her up to lightly drop her on the bed. Hearing her laughter in response he felt a rush go through him and he told her, "Sit up, please?"
"I think I know what you want already," Beckett replied with a smile as she was doing so. "But how far can we take that?"
"Until I can't take it anymore and I need to do this," Castle said, bending his head to lightly nip at her right nipple. His wife's gasp and moan of pleasure in response sent a thrill through his body and he had to fight himself momentarily before he was moving away from her. He wasn't surprised when she was cupping his face with her hands and he was kissing her deeply in response.
Her husband's hands were roaming her body at that point, and Beckett felt it reacting more and more until she couldn't take it anymore and she broke away to speak. It took her a moment to actually do so, catching her breath, and she was eventually able to tell him, "We… we were planning to do something else."
"I know, we will," Castle replied before he was brushing her hair back off her shoulders. Leaning over he kissed gently at her skin, then slid down the best he could to her breasts and brushed his lips over them.
When her husband was eventually taking her right nipple with his mouth, Beckett's eyes rolled back and she closed them before moaning as he suckled at her. He was gentle and she could feel her desire rising until he moved to her other breast and repeated the same action before he pulled away and she was pulling him up to her. They were kissing passionately that time and she had her arms wrapped around him before she realized he was gently pulling her against him tighter.
Feeling his wife shifting slightly against him, Castle had to groan at the way her breasts felt rubbing against his chest. "I had to," he told her a little breathlessly.
"I didn't mind that," Beckett said, not surprised when his eyes seemed to have darkened considerably in front of her. He moved to kiss her hard and she was ready for him, responding eagerly before he was laying her back and she hurried to part her legs for him. After a moment her husband was pausing and when he'd pulled away she told him, "I can't wait."
"Me neither," Castle said seriously as they gazed into each other's eyes. He brushed his lips to hers before he murmured into her right ear before she was nodding and spreading her legs further. Watching her he asked, "Good?"
"Yes, come here," Beckett replied though she was reaching in between them to grasp his erection off his stomach.
Castle was holding himself tense at the sensation before he remembered and said, "You never-"
"It doesn't matter," Beckett said sternly though her voice was a little shaky. "I just want your cock inside me." She wasn't surprised when her husband was merely nodding in response and they were moving together until she could feel the tip of him enter her. She was breathing a little hard at the explosion of pleasure she felt go through her body and did her best to hold onto her self-control while he sank gently in her. With her legs spread at Castle's request, she tried not to move them to wrap around his waist as was her instinct. Once their hips were flush against each other she murmured his name and he was kissing her before he began to thrust.
With his wife moaning heavily into his mouth, Castle tried not to let the kiss end before it needed to. Hearing her gasps as he pressed back inside her, he was kissing around her shoulder and collarbone to distract himself from the stimulation of the sound. When she moaned his name suddenly, he raised his head in time for her to guide him to her lips for a kiss. He pressed a little harder against her while he did that and wasn't surprised when she tilted her head back to let out a brief cry.
"I'm… I'm going to come if you… do that," Beckett gasped out. He gently pulled back before he was thrusting in a little hard again and she said warningly, "Not yet."
Castle wasn't surprised when his wife was letting out a frustrated groan since he had stopped, but he wasn't doing that for long. He began moving again but doing so back inside her gradually, feeling her digging her nails into his skin again before he moved to cover her lips with his. They were tangling their tongues together very shortly after and he caressed at her a little, mimicking his body movements against her.
"Rick," Beckett gasped, pulling away when she realized what he was doing.
"No?" Castle asked, a little concerned she hadn't enjoyed that.
"I don't… it's too much," Beckett breathed. She wasn't surprised when he nodded and moved to kiss her gently, allowing her to feel his pace in her. "I need-"
"Do it, I can't…" Castle started to say before he trailed off as her legs almost snapped in their haste to wrap around him. With her able to move a little more with that he was quiet to hear the sound of their bodies thrusting against each other. It was a muted sound but their skin sliding together was almost intoxicating. "Love," he gasped out to her. "Your pussy feels… so good, tight," he managed to tell her.
Beckett was going to respond, but her husband was bowing his head suddenly and peppering kisses all over her breasts. She gasped in reaction at first before she was pulling him to her so they could kiss. It was passionate and though she'd intended to respond to what he'd said, she found she couldn't as they began kissing and were stopping. Eventually it became too much and they were parting for air before she told him, "I… need to… I'm going to come Rick."
Going a little slower, Castle was going to speak when they were both groaning at the sensation of them feeling one another so easily. It took him a little longer but he was finally able to ask, "Are you… do you want me to fill you with my come?"
"Yes!" Beckett cried as he abruptly tilted his hips and was brushing against her clit. "I want to feel your cock… your come filling me!" she told him before she broke fully and was calling her husband's name as she rocked her hips up to him. She could just feel him doing the same a second before it came to her that he was climaxing too and she held onto him. Allowing her pleasure to take over, she was disappointed when she realized eventually that she was calming down, though her husband was still thrusting. Feeling how he was almost stuttering she felt a flutter of arousal at the realization he was still trying to be gentle with her. Eventually though he was slowing down and then stopping fully before she held onto him and told him, "Thank you love."
Breathing out a laugh, Castle had to take a moment before he could speak but he was finally able to tell her, "Thank you, I thought we'd be asleep by now."
Smiling, Beckett waited for him to withdraw from her before she said, "I'm not surprised and…"
"I'm feeling it now too," Castle said, exhaustion suddenly coming onto him. "But we'll get to sleep early… oh wait."
"Yeah, I didn't think it was going to be early tomorrow," Beckett said with a smile as she saw his realization. She watched him getting off the bed and sat up a little saying, "The night we're at sea again will be good."
"And we can catch up in LA," Castle replied, closing the lights. When he was back with her on the bed he had his glasses off and once the last light was out he was kissing her gently though he'd been lucky to reach her lips. Once they'd parted he told her, brushing his lips to hers as he said, "I'm surprised you're not asking for abstinence."
"It's not my birthday," Beckett replied with a smile. She pulled back as he laughed and she then kissed his cheek she could see and said, "Whatever you want to do Rick."
Shaking his head Castle said, "Not until that night. And to be honest I want you to agree too."
"I will," Beckett said easily. "As long as it's us, I don't care." She wasn't surprised when her husband was kissing her hard and she wrapped her arms around him as he was holding her closer. When they'd parted she told him, "I love you."
"I love you too Kate," Castle said, capturing her lips again before they were slowly parting. Without a word they laid down together and he covered them both with the sheets before he told her, "I just want you."
"Hmm, you'll get me love," Beckett replied before she pressed a kiss to his shoulder. She wasn't surprised when he was kissing her on the lips in response before she murmured, "Goodnight Rick."
"Night my love," Castle replied, kissing her temple as he wrapped both his arms around her.
Since they were so tired, it took very little time for Castle and Beckett to fall asleep in each other's arms. They dreamt pleasantly of one another as they slept through the ship making its way to their next destination.
