The Parent Trap
AU: Based on the movie... The Parent Trap …
It's an AU for the time difference. If they got married and had kids right now, they're gonna be forties or something in this story. I don't want that. Let's say, they met each other earlier.
Disclaimer: I do not own Castle... only their daughters if that's legal... I don't also own Parent Trap...
"Dad! We're gonna be late!" the little green-eyed brunette exclaimed.
"I'm coming!" Castle rushed downstairs. He found his little girl glaring at him. "Are you all set?"
"Richard darling, she's been waiting for you for fifteen minutes." Martha came out of the kitchen.
He glared at her but his mother was right. "Ok, munchkin! Let's go." He kissed his mother's cheek and bid his adieu. His little girl gave Martha a hug.
"We need to go, baby! We're gonna be late!" Kate called out her daughter for the hundredth time.
"Just a minute!" After few minutes her little blue-eyed brunette came out of her room.
"You all set, kiddo?" She grabbed all her daughter's bags.
"I'm so excited!" The little girl was very jumpy all morning. Her mother chuckled at her.
"Are you sure can fly alone?" He kneeled and placed his hands on her shoulders.
"Dad, I'm going to be fine. Don't worry."
"I know," tears are forming on the corners of his eyes. "you're just growing up so fast." He pulled her to a hug.
"Dad, I'm just going camping for two weeks. I'm not going to marry someone like Lexi." Her head was resting on his shoulder.
"I know. I know. But you're going to Missouri."
"I thought it would be great because of the Mark Twain National Forest. Dad, don't be too emotional, ok?" she kissed his cheek. "I promise I'll be back to London after two weeks. Don't forget to finish your next James Bond book, ok?" She pulled away from his embrace and stared at his eyes.
"My baby is growing up…" She wiped the tear on his cheek. "… but don't forget I'm still the parent here."
She smiled.
He kissed her forehead. "And you still can't have a boyfriend, ok?" He grinned widely.
She rolled her eyes.
He waved goodbye and his daughter lined up for her flight.
"Remember what I told you?" She bent over towards her child.
"No punching, kicking and fighting. Got it." She kissed her mom's cheek.
"And?" She raised her eye brows at her.
"Mom! I'm only thirteen. I'm not getting a boyfriend." She pouted and placed her hands on her waist.
"I know… I know… Just checking." She chuckled and kissed her little girl for the last time. "I'll pick you up after two weeks."
"Ok… and mom, don't stay up too late at the precinct." Kate pulled her daughter to a hug.
"Yes, baby." She whispered to her ear.
She watched her daughter line up at the registration.
"Your name please?" A blonde woman in khaki outfit asked her.
"Johanna Nicole Castle." The pretty green-eyed brunette said.
"Ok, you're staying at cabin 109. Here are the schedule and the map. Unpack your belongings and we will have a campfire at 8." The woman smiled and handed her the papers.
"Didn't you signed up already?" The woman' eye brows were furrowed.
"Of course not! I just got here. You can ask the man at the gate. "
The woman wasn't seemed content at her statement.
"I'm sure he remembers me. He was completely checking out my mom!" She exasperated.
"Ok. Ok." She said calming her down. "What's your name?" The woman asked quickly before the girl made a scene.
"Jamilla Alexandra Beckett." Her tone was calmer now.
"Cabin 109. Here's your map and schedule. Campfire's at 8." The woman looked completely pissed off.
She was almost done unpacking her luggage. She turned around at the sound of the door. She was so excited to see her roommate. Then, her eyes widened and she gasped. The book fell off from her hands.
"Are you my clone?"
Hey, did you get their daughters' traits? the pouting, eye rolling, kick-ass little Beckett, how little Castle thinks like big Castle.. etc..
I also have a problem. Who's gonna be Meredith Blake? It can be Castle's or Beckett's ex.
Thoughts so far?
