Kate Beckett thanks her stars that she fell into this dance with Richard Castle.
There are so many things we take for granted, even those to which we seemingly attach some value. It takes losing all of it to know the real value they hold though.

She'd gone back to staring at her scar in the mirror, her fingers poised over the wound. She felt him take a step closer, his chest touching her back with every breath he took. He was the picture of serenity, and that helped ease some of the chaos in his mind. Filled as a gift to Kate (@MyRandomness03), for the ThankYouTerri Project.
