Beckett's Sister: A Castle AU Fanfiction

Chapter 18

When Kris and Kate got out of the cab in front of Purge, Camille and Lanie were on the sidewalk waiting for them. Kris batted Kate's hand away as she tried to pay the driver. Kate rolled her eyes and stepped over to join the other two women while Kris dug some money out of her pocket and paid the cabbie.

"Alright ladies." Kris said as she approached, eagerly rubbing her hands together. "Who's ready for some fun?"

"Girl, you know I'm always up for a good time." Lanie said with a huge smile. "It's this one here we can't ever get to come out." The darker woman said, pointing at Kate.

"Yeah, yeah I hear ya." Kate said as she rummaged around in her bag, finally finding the compact she was digging for and checking her hair in the small mirror.

Kris rolled her eyes as she watched her sister, earning a giggle from Camille and Lanie. When Kate looked up and glared at her, Kris crossed her arms. "You done with the hair porn?"

Kate threw her compact back in her bag and turned on her heel, giving Kris the finger over her shoulder as she made her way to the club's entrance. When the four women entered the club, the music hit them full force. The bar was busy as always and the dance floor was packed with sweaty bodies grinding against each other. Kris threw her hand up at the DJ as she lead the group to their regular booth in the back.

As they sat down, Kris flagged down their regular waitress and they all placed their orders. Kris pulled her phone out of her back pocket and placed it in the middle of the table. Eyeing the other three women, she clapped her hands loudly to gain their attention. "Okay ladies, new rule tonight. Phones in the middle of the table. First one who answers a call or text pays the tab."

As Kris grinned, the three women looked at her like she had grown an extra head. Camille broke first, tossing her phone down beside Kris'. "The only person who would call me is Jack and he's working the bar tonight."

Kris leaned back into the booth, eyeing her sister and Lanie who glanced at each other. Finally, Lanie dug her phone out of her purse and placed it in the pile. "What the hell, I'm in. Javi's with the boys anyway."

Kris raised her eyebrows at her sister, leaning forward and placing her hands on the table. Gesturing to the three phones in the middle of the table, she stared her sister down. "Well sister dearest, you in or you buying our drinks tonight?"

If looks could kill, Kris knew she would probably be laid out dead in the middle of the club from the glare she was currently receiving from Kate. Finally, Kate pulled her iPhone out of her purse and slammed it down. "You're on. My money's on you anyway, especially if Russo lights up your screen."

Lanie squealed, Camille giggled and Kris just grinned and sat back, looking quite satisfied with herself. The waitress finally returned with their first round of drinks and they each grabbed one. Lanie held her glass up in a toast and turned to Kate. "To my girl. May this be a prelude of your upcoming bachelorette party!"

Kate just laughed and then clinked her glass with the other three women before taking a drink. She eyed her phone, thinking of Rick and hoping he was enjoying his boys night with the two men who were like brothers to them. She sat back and sipped her drink, eyeing her sister who was in an animated conversation with Camille and Lanie about the plans she had for the bachelorette party.

A few hours later, Camille glanced at her watch and stood up. "Well, I think I am going to head to the bar for a refill." She said as she nudged Kris' shoulder so she could get out of the booth.

"That what they call it these days?" Kris said as she drug herself out of the booth.

"Don't mind her Camille, she's just jealous because she isn't getting any 'refills' these days." Kate said with a grin, taking another sip of her drink and earning a high five from Lanie.
