Once Upon A Happy Beginning

Chapter Sixteen: Back to Storybrooke

Killian

"What..." The other Captain's voice trailed off as he looked around the room in the convent where I'd sent us all. Jack seems to stumble into his lady and it's up to Robin to settle them and reassure them both about the portal. 

"No, no, no. We've done that before–" The lass corrects. I catch Emma's arm with my hook as she tries to make her way over, no doubt to start asking questions.

"Let's not interrogate her now, love." I tell my Swan under my breath as I lean forward to kiss her forehead. "Let's go and talk to Blue. Let her know what's going on."

Emma nods and digs around in her shorts pocket, making me subconsciously draw Emma closer so that she can take in my warmth because Storybrooke heat has nothing on Caribbean heat, but I know that I'm much more adapted to significant temperature changes than my wife, before she pulls out her talking phone.

On the second attempt, Emma puts the box up to her ear and asks for her son.

"Hey! How are you?" 

He must say something and Emma just smiles. It's one of her most beautiful ones, that she does when it's real and genuine and she doesn't think that anyone is watching her.

"Well we're in the convent now, and Hook and I are going to speak to Mother Superior but I wanted to let you know that the Operation was a success. And so was the original reason we went. Well aside from our romantic getaway." I smirk, that bit was indeed a success. 

Emma's eyes flick up to our friend who's still trying to help Jack through the idea of the portal. If they have travelled like this before, he's clearly forgotten all about it. "Brilliant!" Emma hangs up and calls over our travelling companions. 

"Okay," My wife says when they've surrounded us, her still cradled in my arm. "That was Henry, my son."

"Son?" Asks the lass, "I thought that was your honeymoon? How would you already have a son?"

Emma intakes a short breath as if she's forgotten how little newcomers know of the world and she squeezes on my hand. It's almost as if she's trying to reassure me that she's never going to leave me just because I'm not Baelfire. I don't want to be. I'll always see Henry as my son and as much as I'd love it if he started calling me his Dad, I'm never planning on replacing Bae. "Things run... differently here. It'll take a bit of getting used too. Who would be good to call... Oh. That's a way of being able to talk to someone without being in the same room as them; it's what I just did with my son..." Emma buries her head into the crook of my neck until she lifts it up again and shakes out her gorgeous mane. "Wow. Let me start easier. Robin. Henry says that Regina is at home, cleaning the house I think he said? He's with my Dad and Zelena with the kids at the park so you'll be home alone..." 

I watch Robin's cheeks flush slightly as he thinks of everything he wants to do with Regina when they're home alone. I shift quickly to try and disguise the fact that I'm growing hard thinking about the idea of Emma and I being alone after the few days she's been unconscious that we didn't get to spend any time like that at any point. 

"The kids? Roland?" He asks, trying to hide the fact that his area probably feels quite similar to mine around about now. 

"Dad's going to try and find Jefferson's hat. See if they can get word through. After you, died, Little John and the rest of your Merry Men headed back to Sherwood Forest with Roland. They thought you'd have wanted him to grow up there. I'm sorry Robin."

He bites his lip, thinking of his son. I can't imagine what he's feeling. Whatever I thought I felt at finding out Emma wasn't with child as we'd hoped, it's nothing in comparison to actually spending six years raising him. "My daughter?"

"Robin's at the park." 

"Robin?"

"They named her after... I think Zelena was the one who actually decided but I think it was Regina who made the final decision on the tribute." Emma smiles that mind blowing smile again, "Go! Go see her!" She shoves at the thief with the arm that isn't looped around me. 

"This Regina is his wife,  I assume?" Elizabeth asks, "Or is this something else that's different?" 

"How much did you all catch up on?" Emma questions. 

"More between your pirate and the other one." Answers Jack. 

"Aye."

"All right... Look we're going to have to speak with Blue now. She's kind of the most knowledgeable about all this, as the head fairy. I think she'll want to see all four of us. Then we'll see about getting you set up here until we can safely transport you back home." 

"We're going home?" The lass exclaims incredulously, "Will?"

"If Barbossa hasn't laid a hand on him first. They need his blood."

"My blood. They think I'm Elizabeth Turner."

"He's been proven wrong before. He thought I couldn't survive that island."

"Oh no! How could I forget? The great Captain Jack Sparrow who escaped an island in three days with nothing but two sea turtles as rafts tied to his feet with ropes made from his own back hair! How could he possibly be any more than a fraud who sat around drinking rum for days!"

"Okay, okay, okay," My wife interrupts,  "Yes. You'll get back to Will. The second we know it's safe. But for now, we need to talk to Mother Superior. Blue."

Hey! Sorry this is quite short, I've just been really busy with school and too many maths exams! I hope to get back into it soon, and I'll bring some Outlaw Queen and maybe a bit of Elizabeth or Jack's POV. 

What are your thoughts on smutty parts? I prefer writing fluff and I've never really written smut before but I wanted to give it a bit of a go for the OQ reunion. I don't want to make anyone read it if they don't want to, so please let me know your thoughts. 

Thank you!
