You guys are absolutely amazing! I hope you like this because it's the last chapter to this story.

Oh and I don't own Castle and I never have, just pretend that this has been on every other chapter too...

Sitting on the balcony overlooking the beach he had an arm wrapped loosely around her shoulders while her head sat snuggled in the crook of his neck. The sun was setting making the children playing on the beach just silhouettes to the happy couple.

'Mrs Castle... I still can't believe I finally get to call you that.'

'I can't believe that I can finally call you my husband.' She said playing with the buttons on his shirt.

It had been a long few years. There were fights and moments when they were both ready to just throw it all away but every time one of them would cave. They'd come back together and be stronger than before. They grew together, Beckett learnt to open up a little and Castle learnt patience.

The precinct went into chaos when they announced that they were together. Then when he had proposed Lanie's squeal could have smashed all the crystal in New York. It was a small proposal, small but intimate, just like she had always dreamed about.

Really this relationship had been more than she could have ever considered possible. She never would have thought that being close to someone could make her feel safe. Instead of feeling like she was on her own she knew that he would always be there for her. No matter what she had done he had stood by her, even when she was the one in the wrong he'd make sure she knew that he wasn't going to leave. Even when she tried to push him away he wouldn't go. He was stubborn and obstinate in all the good ways.

He brought out her inner child, the child that had gone hidden away for so long. He and Alexis were always coming up with new ways to make her smile. Alexis and her had become good friends, she'd come to her for advice or when she needed to rant about her Dad. Kate knew that if she needed it Alexis, who had now been off to college for a few years would be there to listen to her too.

The day before was long and tiring but it was perfect. Kate had been able to rein Castle in on most things so that their wedding was perfect, for both of them. It was modest, elegant and relaxed. It was a small ceremony but a larger reception. Somehow Castle had been able to stop the paparazzi from hounding them at the outdoor ceremony, which Kate was going to be forever grateful for.

This marriage was going to be different from all his others, he knew that already. They had taken their time, well she had. He'd been ready to marry her the day she told him that she loved him but he knew that she would need time to adjust and he was more than content to be there with her until she was ready.

He knew that the relationship was even more different for her than it was for him. But she let him get away with more than any of her last boyfriends. He'd even been able to call her darling and he could kiss her whenever he liked, well within reason. She had slowly opened up, to him and to others.

The day he got down on one knee was more nerve wracking than ever before. He was almost certain that she would say yes and that the ring was beautiful but there was something about Kate that could make the most calm of people get butterflies. He had carried the ring around for weeks waiting for the perfect moment. Finally he just decided that the perfect moment wasn't going to come soon enough and he'd die if he didn't see the ring on her finger soon.

She hadn't even said yes, but she didn't need to. He had slipped the ring on her finger and felt like he was flying. She had promised to be his forever. When she had walked towards him today he still couldn't believe that she was going to be his wife. He couldn't have deserved someone as perfect as her. She was more beautiful than he could ever describe, to say she was glowing was an understatement. She made Jennifer Hawkins look like Susan Boyle.

Now they would share more than they ever had before, a life, a love and a name.

'You do realise that there will now be two Castle's in the 12th. Oh, maybe we should have nicknames that would be so cool!'

She smiled at his childlike demeanour. 'Actually my amazing husband, there's going to be three.' She said taking his larger hand and placing it on her not yet swelling abdomen.

This chapter is probably a bit choppy but I just wanted to get it out to you. Probably too cheesy too but I couldn't resist!
