For a guy who didn't particularly love shopping, Kate had to hand it to her husband, he had been a trooper in the afternoon they had spent going from store to store. It wasn't a secret that she was a bit of a clotheshorse at home and that her collection of shoes and outerwear was a bit extreme considering the size of her closet in the loft, but she was doing her best to approach their afternoon with a bit of practicality and only buying things that she really needed for day to day life on the Enterprise outside of her hours working and wearing one of the Starfleet uniforms.
But Kate Beckett was as susceptible to distraction as the next girl, which was the precise reason she was currently standing near the changing rooms wearing a dress and a pair of heels that made her already long legs look infinite. "Hey, Castle what do you think about ---" The plan had been to tease her husband with the outfit, especially since Kate already knew she would be taking the whole thing back to the starship and didn't exactly need to see Rick's slack-jawed expression when he got a load of the short skirt and the low cut back. But she hadn't gambled on anyone they knew also being in the store and yet here she was, wearing a dress that was far shorter and tighter than anything else she had worn in months with the Devil himself calling her name.
Rolling her eyes at herself, Kate turned towards the other man, giving him a brief wave and a cheeky grin. "You really are stalking me."
