Unexpected love

Chapter Nine: Cold day out

Emma's POV

It had been a few days since Killian had stayed in mine. It was five days to Christmas day and I didn't have the chance to see Killian again as I was so busy in the bakery. But finally the bakery was closing today for Christmas break and I could bring Henry out for Starbucks like we do every Saturday. I had began to feel guilty as I hadn't been talking to Killian at all these past few days and I wanted to invite him to come out with us.

"Mom. Why are you up so early? Do you have work today?" Henry says as I was sitting in then dining room with a cup of coffee. "No kid. Just couldn't fall back asleep." I said wrapping my arm around him as he sat on the chair beside me. "Are we going out today?" Henry asks. "Of course kid. You don't mind if Killian comes with us?" I asked nervously. "I'd love it if Killian came!" Henry said smiling. "Okay, thanks kid." I said kising his forehead. He kissed me back and went back up stairs to get ready.

I lifted my phone and texted Killian to ask him if he actually wanted to come.

"Hey! Sorry I haven't been talking to you recently. I've been so busy at the bakery. But I'm off for Christmas now so I was wondering if you wanted to go out with me and Henry today?"

I set my phone down and went up stairs to shower. I dried and curled my hair and then my phone went off.

"Of course love! I'd love a day out with you and Henry. I'll meet you at the towns Christmas tree."

I smiled. I quickly put on denim skinny jeans and a white jumper. I slipped on my brown knee high boots and ran back down the stairs. Henry was on his phone waiting on me. "Hey, you ready to go?" I asked him. "Yeah, let's go." He says putting on his coat and scarf. I too put on my coat and scarf and we went out of the house.

"Is Killian coming?" Henry asks putting his seat belt on. "Yeah, were are meeting him in town." I said starting the car. We drove off as it began to snow again.

Killian's POV

I stood waiting under the Christmas tree that was sheltering me from the snow fall. I see Emma and Henry walking towards me and I smiled and started to walk towards them. "Hello love." I said hugging her. 'Hey. How are you." She replied. "I'm great. Now where shall we go?" I asked her. "Let's go to Starbucks first. I'm freezing!" Emma said rubbing her hands together. I smiled at Henry and we began to walk towards Starbucks, shuffling our feet across the ground covered in snow.

Once we got inside Starbucks we sat down at a table and took off our coats. 'I'll go get our drinks. What would you both like?" Emma says offering. "Hot chocolate with cinnamon mom." Henry says sitting down. "I'll just have a Carmel latte please love." I said smiling at her. She walks to the counter and I turn to Henry.

"So mate, what do you think your mom would like for Christmas?" I asked him. "Umm I don't know. I got her a photo collage frame with photos of me and her. Then some perfumes and pajamas." Henry explains to me. "I've only ordered her favourite flowers so far. I've had ideas but I keep forgetting them." I replied. "I don't really know. I'm not the best with presents." Henry says feeling guilty." Its okay. I'll figure something out. Hopefully before Christmas." I said laughing.

Emma walks to the table and sets down Henrys drink. "Hot choco with cinnamon for Henry." She says. "Thanks mom." He replies. "And a Carmel latte for Killian." She says smiling at me. "Thank you love." I said kissing her cheek. We all sat down again and enjoyed each others company and the warmth of in doors.

We left Starbucks. Shopped around for a while. We decided to go home as the cold had made us miserable. We jumped into Emma's car and she started the engine. "You haven't told me where you live yet Killian. I would need to, to bring you home." She said looking at me. "How about I drive us there. It would be easier." I said getting out of the car and swapping seat with her. I pulled out of the parking space and drove into the streets of New York.

We pulled up outside my house, which was like an isolated space. No one lived near here as it was private land. "Wow, that's your house?!" Henry gasps. "Yeah. You like it lad?" I said laughing. We got out of the car and walked along the path to my front door.

Emma's POV

Killian's house was literally a mansion. I don't care if he thought otherwise. I thought my house was big! There was two cars parked up the side. A white land rover and a black Nissan. I'd never seen the white land rover as he always drove his Nissan. "Killian, do you live here by yourself?!" I asked in awe. "Well sort of." He says unlocking the door. Two king Charles run out of the door and chased after each other in the open front garden he had. "The ginger one is called scarlet and the black one is called Ella." Killian smiled. "Come on let's get inside, its freezing!" Killian said nodding towards the open front door. He called the dogs and they ran back in followed my me, Henry and Killian.

"Killian your house is amazing!" Henry gasped. "Killian? Is that you!" We hear a voice as someone was running downstairs. "Yeah kiddo I'm down here." Killian shouts back up. A boy around Henry's age stood at the bottom of the large staircase. "Liam, this is Emma and Henry. You remember me telling you about them?" Killian says. I stood in awe. Was this Killian's younger brother? A son?
"Henry, Emma this is my brother Liam."

| Okay so I made Liam the younger one in this. Sorry if its confusing
