Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas || Chapter 2 || [Action]

[myjobpaysbetter]

[When Castle wakes up he's immediately aware that the sheets on the bed are a bit more luxurious than he's grown used to. Not to say that his sheets aren't nice, these are just...strangely more crisp, and the blanket is much more cozy. He does recognize the room, but it's not his room at the Manor, he sits up and glances around. Its one of many

[One can almost hear his interest peak before he turns his attentions back to the situation at hand. Since he didn't experience anything that the others had the previous weeks, he's a bit clueless. Typical Tom.]

Um, what's so special about that? It's just another day of snow.

[Someone hasn't noticed anything yet.]

[myjobpaysbetter]

[Obnoxious whistling cuts off and the grin can be heard in his voice.]

The rooms. This isn't the Manor, its a hotel. I want to get out and check it out.

[Now it hits him in the form of a pause.]

Holy hockey pucks!

[The sound of curtains thrust apart is heard and a hand slapping on the glass.]

It's...wait, something's off...

[Castle waaaaaaaits for it..Ah.. there it is..]

Something is right. It's New York isn't it?

[He hasn't even looked he's going simply on instinct and familiarity with the room setting.]

in person!

[heterosexually]

[Okay so John has never been to New York before. So when he woke up in this-- stupidly fancy hotel, coincidentally the same one Castle was staying in, he's sort of confused but excited.]

[And that's what leads him to be in the hallway when Castle is humming Frosty the Snowman, and he nearly collides with the taller man scampering down the hallway to get to one of the windows and have a look around.]

Oh-- geez, sorry! Definitely not watching where I'm going, gosh.

in person!

[myjobpaysbetter]

[Imagine if you will the chorus of Frosty the Snowman being whistled and SUDDENLY it's a high pitched squeal and, followed by a raspy gush of air in the form of an 'oomph'. That would be pretty much the EXACT sound Castle just made when his whistling gets abruptly cut off by the boy who just ran into him. He blinks dazed for just a second as he tries to collect himself.]

It's alright. I wasn't exactly paying attention myself.

in person!

[heterosexually]

[In his excitement, John has sort of forgotten to keep his feet on the ground like a normal teenager. So when he sort of giggles, awkwardly, and dusts himself off from crashing into Castle and then continuing right along, he's ...floating. Approximately two inches off the ground.]

Are we in New York? [He very obviously doesn't seem to notice this, though. And he's definitely more excited about the New York thing.]

Re: in person!

[myjobpaysbetter]

[That is interesting, floating kid. He nearly missed that as John moves away.]

I believe so.

[Kate had slept like a rock, so when she wakes up, she doesn't exactly notice anything is different. All she knows is that she isn't home, it's just a room, and she can hear Castle making a fuss in the hallway so she pulls herself out of bed quickly.

She grabs her gun and sticks it in the waistband of her pants, tugging her shirt and pushing her hair out of her face as she tiptoes to the door. It doesn't sound like he's in trouble, just being obnoxious, but Castle isn't exactly the most subtle sometimes when he's in a bad situation. And it doesn't help that he's a plain shit magnet.

Beckett stumbles across the carpet and pulls open the door and... Hmm, she doesn't remember her door handle being hooked like that. But Rick in the hallway is enough to distract her in her hazy, just waking up fog, and she glares at him.]

Castle, what are you doing?

[myjobpaysbetter]

BECKETT! Guess what! Or WHERE! Guess WHERE!

[Yes, he's that excited.]

[wheresmybroom]

Castle, come on...

[She starting to wake up now, though, and the weird things are starting to stand out to her. The door, the hallway, the look on Castle's face, and she starts to put it together...]

No way. Are we...?

[myjobpaysbetter]

[He's going to wait for it..

There it is...]

YES... We are!
