"Kate, it's nice to put a face to the name. Alexis can't stop talking about you." What do you say back to that? "Well, she's a great kid" "But you prefer me better, right?" Rick's childish voice cut Martha's answer. Weirdly enough his attempt of a joke made her feel more at ease. She could think she was back on the precinct with the boys, instead that in his kitchen. "No she doesn't!" Alexis intervened, obviously thinking he was being serious. "Richard" Martha scolded, then she turned to Kate "I feel like I must apologize for his behavior. You'd think that would stop after he finished school..." She jibed, but noticed that the detective had glared at his son and effectively shut him up. "Though I must say detective, you can handle him quite well" Again, what do you say to that? thank you? She decided to focus on the gentle pull on her sleeve. She looked down to Alexis' big blue eyes "You don't prefer him better, no?" She asked shyly. "Of course not" Somehow she felt the need to reassure her. "In fact, it'll be much better if you were in the precinct every day instead of him" That earned a giggle from the little red head. "You hurt me with your words, detective." Castle gasped. However he was thankful that the detective comforted his daughter, knowing that she had some trust issues thanks to her mother. But he wasn't going to think about that now. "You'll live" Beckett rolled her eyes. Alexis jumped from her seat and joined Rick, who was about to start cooking. After some thought Kate took the wine Martha had given her earlier and sipped it while watching Alexis and Rick cook. He was making his world famous-his words- pasta carbonara. It was like a well rehearsed dance between Alexis and Rick, they m... ... middle of paper ... ...ss looked more like a bowl, or a fish tank-, and placed it in front of Kate. "No, tha-" Kate tried to refuse politely, however the older woman had already filled her cup with the proffered drink -and if she was correct, she had practically downed half a bottle. "Drink up" The flamboyant woman insisted taking a healthy sip of her own glass of wine. "Jesus, mother. You couldn't find bigger glasses?" Castle jibed when he saw the woman's glasses. Kate successfully stifled a laugh behind the glass of wine. "Oh, shush you." his mother dismissed. " So, detective-" "Just Kate" Kate interrupted Martha and immediately turn to look at Castle, as if she could read his thoughts. Sure enough his mouth was open, ready to say something. She gave him a stern look, clearly stating that the same courtesy wasn't extended to him. Neither caught Martha's amused look.
“Pardon me?” Miss Allen asked, finally putting an end to the creepy ass moment of deadly silence. The perplexed expression on her face grew more confound with each passing second, but the gentleness in her eyes remained the same.
“Ain't no police around here, Sweetie,” Junior said. The blond's brows wrinkled. She must be a newcomer. Junior explained the situation. “Sheriff's office is gutted, jail's got a revolving door. Only detectives are Staters out of Medford. If we're lucky.” He took a swig of beer. “You can thank Myra Lipton for
Kate. "Mates, maid? How mean you that? No mates for you unless you were of a
“Wait a minute. You are not here about Margaret. Do you know that two men kidnapped her and everyone is looking for her? What are you doing here?” Andrew asked, irritated.
"For what?" She scoffed in disbelief. She had felt that he did not owe her an apology.
Davie looked up, then shook his head a little, an aggravating habit he'd picked up from that bitch Amanda. Without a word, he went to the cupboard and poured himself another cup of coffee.
“Excuse me little boy what are you doing on my family farm?” the woman asked using decorous behavior.
"But here we all are!" Izzy replied, as the little tea cup hopped on over towards her.
Mary sat down on the old sofa in the living room and relaxed. She hadn’t been able to relax like this in months. Once her head hit the cushion, she fell asleep. She slept until the next morning when she smelled her favorite breakfast, lamb tacos and orange juice.
“ Kate what is taking your sister so long?” Mom asked as I got in the car.
“You are in shock,” Castiel said, an edge in his voice that did not leave any room for argument. “Soon, you will start to have a lot of emotions. When you do, they would not be good feelings and you will be scared of me, as you should be. When that happens, just tell me, and I will find a place to leave you.”
Kate's voice thudded into Mabel's reverie from behind her. "What are you talking to yourself about this time, May?"
“Japanese soda?” she passed me the tall curvy bottle that resembled Kim K’s body in a tight, air choking dress.
