Unexpected

A week went by

Castle's POV

A week has passed since Kate and I, had our first blind date. I got so busy with continue writing my new book and brainstorming because the ideas were just coming to me like rain. I took notes of all the ideas that I had and what I wanted include in my new book. I had already finished with my last book because I was getting bored with Storm, so I've been working on a new book about a female homicide detective who grew up in foster care, but became one of the youngest female detective and just kicks ass. I also spent most of the week giving Alexis all of my attention because she will always be my baby girl. One thing Meredith and I could agree on was to keep Alexis out of the spotlight and we fought tooth and nail to do so and managed to pull it off. We absolutely did not want Alexis to grow up in the spotlight, being constantly watched by the public because after all she was just a child and just because Meredith, mother and I were in the spotlight does not mean she should have that choice to be in the spotlight or not, taken away from her. So far, all the entire world knew was that I am a playboy, I dated a lot of models and Meredith happened to be one of them. They have no idea that I have a kid and I plan on making it stay that way until Alexis decides otherwise.

Kate's POV
This week has gone by really fast. I got so caught up in my latest case and it was all round a very stressful case that just led to us to more questions, of which was, who was the victim, where did she come from and how she ended up like this. We got a call early in the morning where they found a teenage girl's body in the dumpster. Her prints were coming up as a no show and according to Lanie she was no older than fifteen years old. All we were trying to do was figure out who was this girl and how did she end up like this. We were hitting dead ends the entire week and we were all getting a little frustrated deep down. All of us did not want this to turn into a cold case because once a case goes cold it's hardly ever reopened and that means we failed that victim and their family members who may still be waiting for them to come home. To get my head off the case and just to take a breather, I started to think about Castle and wondered how he was doing. I hope we actually get to go out on a second date but I don't want to get my hopes up because it's life and literally anything can happen. I took out my phone and wondered if I should text him or not? I kept asking myself all kinds of questions like is it too soon to text him ? Should I wait for him to reach out ? My entire brain started to get scrambled with the over thinking. I took a deep breath, to try and calm myself. After a few minutes of me not over thinking, my phone chimed. I looked at my phone and I got a message from Castle saying " Hi Kate, just checking in and wanted to know how you were doing."

TBC....TBC.....TBC.... TO BE CONTINUED.
I hope everyone has being doing well! Remember to take care of yourselves and have a wonderful week.
