Re-uploaded this, as to not confuse readers. Before, it wouldn't show the website name, so it was a tad confusing. Disregard my comment on the review, please.
Castle rolled his eyes tiredly as he stared at his annoying screensaver. "You should be writing," it claimed, flashing violently over and over. He moved his mouse rapidly, returning the computer's screen to his email. He noticed a new email in his inbox, and leaned over his keyboard to get a better glimpse at it.
"Kop would like to meet you." It read, its size 8 font jumping loudly off the page. He looked dazzled for a moment, not understanding where the email came from.
"Huh," he exclaimed, clicking curiously onto the email.
"ny-singles,"it read, "would like to inform you that 'Kop' would like to meet you." Below it was a location, a time, and a date. He realized he had registered at this site when he had been getting over his divorce with Meredith.
Wow, he thought, I must have made this account five or six years ago. He began chuckling to himself as he remembered all the lovely ladies he had met through the site, and all the experiences he had had with them.
"Dad?" asked Alexis, concern for her father's dreamlike state imminent in her voice.
"Hey, sugarplum," was Castle's endearing response.
"Sugarplum?" retorted Alexis, her eyebrows raised in disbelief. "Dad, are you drunk?" She reached over and pulled his eyelids open, checking for dilated pupils. She then proceeded to open up his mouth, and pulled back almost immediately at the obvious disgust for his breath.
"Alright, you're not drunk," she concluded, "But you need a mint."
Castle chuckled, and motioned to his screen.
"Oh," Alexis said, finally understanding Castle's mood. "Who do you think it is?"
"You sound as though I know every woman in New York."
Alexis crossed her arms, and shot her dad a knowing look.
"Very funny," was his reply. "I don't know, though. Probably some depressed woman who's getting over a marriage just like I was. What a dumb name, too. Kop? Like, get real." He rolled his tongue in a valley-girl manner, which led Alexis to roll her eyes.
"Dad, I'm going to bed," she said, mid laugh, as she bent over and kissed him on the cheek. "You should too."
"I will," he promised. "I will."
Why hello there. I hope you liked the first chapter. It's mainly just Castle fluff, but if you like him as much as I do, you won't mind. :D
