No spoilers.
I may write another using the prompt "jealousy" set after "A Rose For Everafter." What do you think?


Jealousy was not an emotion Richard Castle was accustomed to feeling. Women were all over him; he could have anyone he wanted. But as he was watching Beckett chat so enthusiastically with another guy…he was jealous. He hated to admit it…but it was true…and miserable. He asked someone who the guy was. A new detective, he was told, Chad Harrington. So Beckett was snubbing him for a guy named Chad? Seriously? And she WAS ignoring him. She glanced over when he walked in, but she didn’t say hello. She didn’t say anything. Castle resisted the urge to hurry to Beckett’s side and behave in a macho and possessive manner. Well…he did for a while anyways. Eventually, he gave in, and decided to deal with the repercussions later.

He boldly approached, but much to his surprise, Beckett introduced him immediately, without any appearance of annoyance.

“Castle, this is my cousin, Chad. Chad, this is Richard Castle, the writer, and my consultant.” said Beckett.

Chad held out his hand, and Rick took it, but only after recovering from the shock.

“Cousin?” said Castle, “Cousin! Great to meet you, Chad…great to meet you!”

Beckett would have over-analyzed this situation…but she was way too preoccupied with horror that she had said, “my consultant” rather than “our consultant.”
