The next day started on average. I woke up at 6. I took a shower, dressed up, and made breakfast for Mia. At 6:30 I wake her up. - Baby, it's time to wake up. You have school today. - I stroked her face lightly. - No, mommy. I wanna sleep. - she turned to her other side while she pulls her blanket over her body. - Mia, you have to get up we gonna be late. I made your favorite breakfast. - I smiled at her meanwhile I tucked her out. - You made me pancakes?! - she got a huge smile on her face after I nodded. - Thank you, mommy! - she hugged me and ran off. After we ate our breakfast she started to dress up. She brushed her tooth and get her shoes. - Ready to go? - ask her when she picked up her bag. - Yupp. - she popped the "p". I took Mia to the school and I drive to work. At the station, Espo and Ryan come to me. - Hey, Beckett - Ryan greets me. - We got a case. - they stand in front of me. - Where? - I asked. - At Amsterdam Avenue and the corner of 83rd street. - Espo said. - Ok, let's go. - we went to the elevator when the captain called me. - You want to talk to me, sir? - I asked while I closed the office door. - Yes. You know that I'm not a fan of the reporters and the writers and things like that but the mayor is a fan of a somewhat famous writer and he needs some inspiration for his books, so that's why you have to work with him. - he told me the news. - Sir I'm not working with a writer these are not some kind of stories. They are real people with a real family and real pain because of the loss. That's not a playground. - I pissed off. - You think that I don't know these things Beckett?! Accept it! - and now he's angry with me. - Sorry I'm late. - when the first letter left that mouth behind me I recognized his voice. - You? - we both asked at the same time while we look at each other with a surprised faces. Well, I was surprised he was more like happy. - You are the writer who needs inspiration? - I asked. - You are the best cop in NY? - he asked back with an impressed voice. - She is. - Captian Montgomery answered instead of me - You two know each other? - he asked. - No/Yes - I answered no while he said yes and the captain gives us a questioning face. - We just met yesterday. - I explained. - I see. So you still have a problem with him? - he gave his look. - Maybe, but I can handle it. - I said and he left me with Castle. - I didn't think we will meet that soon. - he smiled at me. - Me neither. -I was angry. I love doing my job but alone. Not with a partner or worse, a writer or a reporter. - I thought you like me but know you are angry. It's because of that you have to work with me? - I look at him and then I got to the elevator again, without Espo and Kev. - Look, I'm sorry I didn't know you are the best cop in whole damn New York. - he looked at me with an apologetic look. - Ok, fine. You stay behind me, you don't talk while I'm talking and when I said stay there you stay there, are we clear? - I looked at him and he said yes. - Do you have any questions? - I asked. - Can I drive? Ooo can I get a weapon? And a bulletproof vest? - he asked while we got to my car. - No, no and you won't need it because you won't be near any of the criminals. - Ohh come on Beckett. How am I supposed to get inspiration? - he is like a nine-year-old. Yesterday he was such a gentleman. He was funny kind and sweet and not.. not that. - You are the writer so you have to figure it out. - I smiled and we went to the crime scene. - Hey guys, what do we got? - I asked while we get the scene. - Hey, Mr. you can't come in here - He's with us Javi. - I cut him off and tell them the story. - Okay, so it's weird. There is a woman, Alison Tisdale, 24 years old. She's a student at New York University. There is no sign of scuffle. - Flower on your grave. God, this is from my book. - he speaks up suddenly. - It's really is. Good to see you again, Mr. Castle. - Lanie stood up from the dead body. - Hey, Lanie! You two are working together? That's cool! - he smirked. - Flowers on your grave. It's from your book. Guys! We got a similar case. It's from his book too. The man's name was Marvin Frisk. - I remembered his name and the case. - I think we need to talk. - I took a look at Castle and I saw that he didn't understand why. - I'll take him back to interrogation him. - and we went back to the station. - Beckett why am I'm at this room? I didn't do anything. - he said. - These two victims were killed by the ideas from your book. Did you know any of them? - I asked while I put in front of him the pictures. - No, but the killer created an awesome crime scene.- he smirked and I rolled my eyes. - The fans send you any letters? - he nodded - Then you wouldn't mind if we check your mailbox. - I stood up and left him there. - Beckett! - again the captain find me. - Yes, captain. - I stopped in front of him. - Don't take off Castle from this case. He can help you. - he said and got me to his office. - Great.. - I murmured. - What's great? - Castle comes out of the interrogation room. - Come on Caste, we need to read all of your fans' letters. - and we went to the resting room. After an hour the officers got us 3 big boxes full of letters. We read all of it but there's was nothing. - Sorry detective but I have to get my daughter from school. - What time is it? - I asked. - Almost 3. - he answered. - Damn it! - I quickly stood up and run to the elevator. - Hey, wait for me! - he shouted after me. - Hurry up, I'm gonna be late! Again.. - I said the last word when he got into the elevator. - Calm down I'm almost always late. - he tries to calm me down but it is not really worth it. - You surely have a wife or a girlfriend or a babysitter to take care of her but I don't. She just got me. - I said while I got into my car and he opened the door for himself. - You will be late if you came with me you know that right? - I looked at him. - I just wanna say that maybe I can take you there faster. - He smirked and after a minute I was sitting in his Ferrari. About 15 minutes we were at the school. - Mia is studying in this school? - he asked. - Yes, she is why? - I got off the car. - Because Alexis is studying here too. - he said in a happy voice and we get into the building. - Mommy! - Mia saw me immediately and she ran into my arms. - Hey baby! I miss you so much. - I picked her up into my arms. - Daddy! - a red-head girl was running to Rick. - Hey pumpkin! - she picked her up too. - Lex, this is my mom whom I talked about. - Mia said to Castle's girl and I blushed. My little girl talks about me to her, that's so cute. - And this is my father whom I talked about. - the redhead smiled proudly. - Mommy, this is my new friend Alexis. She starts to learn here today. They are moving into another house. - she said while the four of us get out of the school. - Really? - I looked at Castle. - Yes, we did. - Alexis answered instead of her father. - Mommy, where is your car? - Mia asks when we reach the parking place. - Alexis father took me here. Otherwise, I'm Kate. - I smiled at Lex. - Oh yeah, and I'm Rick. - he smiled at my peanut. - Rick? Mommy, he is the same Rick whom you said he is ho- I put my hand on her mouth. - Mia sweetie just get into the car. - I blushed a bit hard and I sit next to Castle while the girls are sitting in the back. - So you talked about me, that's nice. - he smirked at me. - Oh wait you are the  Kate? My dad said you look like a model but you are a cop and he was right. - she said and I blushed even more if it was possible. - Alexis! - he looks at her daughter and she just smiled. - Mommy, it's Friday. And you know what we are doing on Fridays. - Mia put his head between the two front seats. - Yes, I know. We will go to Mr. Boyd and get some ice cream. - I stroked her hair and she sat back. - See you tomorrow, detective. -he smiles charmingly. - Yeah, see you tomorrow writer boy. - I smirked and I picked Mia out of the car. - Bye Lex! See you on Monday. - she waved to her new friend. - Bye Mia! - the girl did the same and we walked into our building.
