Lets get the hell outa here

Wherever she is she's proud

Kate smiled hugging Castle.
"I could have never done this without you." She said looking at him.
"My pleasure, come on let's go celebrate at the old haunt.
"That sounds perfect" He smiled taking her hand. "But can we do something first?" She asked, he turned to look at her.
"What?" He asked.
"Will come meet her? I know it's kinda stupid but.." He stopped her by smiling.
"I would love to." He smiled.
When they got to the cemetery Kate led him down a few rows before she stopped looking at one of the headstones.
"Why don't you go, I'll come when you need me." He suggested, she nodded dropping his hand she walked to the headstone.
"Hi mom, I know I know I haven't been here in a while but today's special. I've already told you about the man that killed you, but I just arrested the man who hired him..." Kate sighed holding back tears. "Since today's so special I thought I would bring the man who's behind all of this here." Kate said looking at Rick, he walked over. "Mom this is Castle" She said looking at him.
"Hi Johanna" He said pulling Kate against him, she closed her eyes resting her head on his chest finally letting the tears fall. "You would be proud of Kate, she was amazing today, not that she always isn't. That's why I like following her so much. She's extraordinary." Kate looked up at him with a soft smile. "I can't wait to marry you" He said softly.
"Shhh she doesn't know." Kate said.
"Johanna, I'm marrying your daughter because she is the love of my life and I want to spend the rest of my life with her." He said looking at the headstone.
"She would have loved you Castle." Kate said laying her head on his chest, he slipped his arms around her holding her there.
"You ready to go?" He asked, softly kissing the top of her head.
"Yeah I think so" She said moving to kneel in front of it. "I love you mom" She kissed her fingers before pressing them to the cold stone. Letting out a sigh she stood up and turned to Rick with a soft smile. He reached his hand out letting her take it while they walked back to their car to continue their life without Johanna Beckett.
