Happy Beginning Captain Swan

Ch.313 Christmas Time

**Jennifer Morrison and Colin O'Donoghue reunited in Paris!**

Killian and Henry were in town buying a tree. Snow White was at home with the three little ones. There were some Christmas decorations around the house that Killian set up before work that morning. She was helping Hope with her homework while Ian and Leia were playing in the living room. The two boys returned home with the tree. Ian sees his Dada through the window, unloading the tree from above the car. "Dada!! Dada home!!"

Leia looks at the window. "Hope! Daddy and Henwy have the twee!"

Hope runs into the living room ."Really?" She looks out the window. "Wow!" Snow white smiles at her grandchildren's excitement.

Snow White opened the door, and Henry and Killian carried the tree inside. Leia, Hope, and Ian were looking at the tree. "WOW!!!"

"Stay back from the tree." She led her grandchildren away from the tree. The two men set the tree standing up in three pieces..

Ian goes to his Daddy and hugs him. "Dada!"

"Hi, son!" He hugs his son. "Hi, little loves!"

"Daddy!" Hope and Leia hug their Daddy.

"Are you two ready to decorate the tree?"

"Yes!"

"I will make hot cocoa with cinnamon."

"Good idea, Nana. Mom is coming home soon. She will need one." Henry went to get decorations.

"Daddy, why twee in pieces?"

"Because it is a tree that we can keep at home and use it every year."

"Less pines and easier to use. It was a good choice, Dad."

Hope looked at the new tree. "I like it!"

Ian went to the tree and looked up. "Wow!"

Killian smiles. "You like the tree, Ian?"

"Big!"

"Yes, did Dada choose a good tree?"

"Yes!" He jumped up and down.

Henry returns with the boxes. "Let's decorate the tree!"

"Yay!!" Snow White returns with a tray of hot cocoa with cinnamon and a plate of gingerbread cookies. The little ones were decorating the tree with Disney ornaments. Killian was hanging the stockings by the fireplace of the whole family. Henry was helping his siblings with the decorations on the top of the tree.

Emma was in her office at the sheriff's station finishing up paperwork for the day. She glances at her picture frame of her family at Granny's and smiles. She knows she needs to return home to be with her family.

Charming sees his daughter leaving her office for the day. "Hi, Emma."

"Hi, Dad." She hugs her father.

"Long day?"

She sighs. "Yes. Everything that has been going on, with Ava and my miscarriage, and the kids...it has been a lot."

"You are grieving a huge loss; understandably, you are feeling a lot of emotions."

"Only Henry knows, not the little kids." She began tearing up.

He hugs his daughter.

"If you need a break, you can have one."

"I am okay. I just need more sleep."

"You are sure?"

"Yes, you know me, keeping busy is good for me."

"It is okay to grieve."
