Chapter 30

Listen to the song at the side : Million Years Ago by Adele

Two weeks later

Emma had been wandering in the streets for a moment. Her father was out of the hospital and as she was going back home, she saw him knocking at the door so she left. She ended up at the docks and kept walking and thinking of everhthing. She tried to imagine where she would be at this moment if Henry never showed up.

Getting at the beach she saw someone sitting in the sand and looking at the ocean. She got closer and finally figured out it was Killian.

"Hey." she said before sitting next to him.

"Hey." he replied.

"What's going on?" Emma asked, looking at the ocean to.

"I was just thinking about what happened to Graham again." he declared.

(A.N/ Sorry guys :$)

"I'm so sorry about that." she said.

"You already said that before." he replied. His eyes would not leave the waves. It had a way to calm him down, it felt like magic sometimes.

"I know." she sighed.

"I can't take his place, I can't be Sheriff. I don't know why, I just can't." Killian admitted. "So, I though you could step up and take it?"

"Me?" she asked surprised. "I've only been here for like three weeks."

"And you've done a really good job." he told her. "I thought about it a lot and I really think it's a good idea."

"O-okay." she simply said.

For once the silence was not akward at all, it felt comforting, actually, for the both of them. Maybe it was the little feeling if déjà vu they were a little afraid to mention, but it did feel good for both Killian and Emma.

"Everything seemed so much more simple the last time we sat together on a beach watching the ocean." Killian declared.

"My biggest problem was that Michelle." Emma laughed. Killian started to laugh as well. "And then everything fell apart." she said.

"It still wasn't your fault." he said.

"I miss them, sometimes." Emma admitted.

"I miss that it was more simple before. I miss those times when we would hang out and just have well... fun." he said.

"That seems far, huh?"

"It does." he said and looked at her, but she did not notice, until he cupped her face with his hands and put his lips on hers. She gave him, she kissed him. But, she backed off after a few moments. She looked at him sadly.

"I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't-" he stuttered and looked away.

"It's okay, huh... I'll see you at the station, tomorrow." she said and got up, then walked away. She got her hand to her lips, she still felt it. He had not changed, he still was Killian and he managed to make her feel the same way for a moment.

* * *

"Killian kissed me." Emma declared as her mother put a mug of cocoa in front of her.

"What?" she asked.

"Killian kissed me." Emma repeated and sighed. "And now I have to go work. With him. And he offered me to take Graham's place and be Sheriff."

"Now, don't be mad, but you and Killian-" Mary Margaret started saying.

"I know. I just don't think it can happen... It was twelve years ago!"

"And? Why would that change anything?"

"It-it, huh..." she sighed again and took a sip of her cocoa. "I'm an adult, I'm living with my mother right now, I'm in my son's life, even if it actually was a closed adoption. I don't have time for that!"

"Really?" she asked. Emma knew her mother was right, but she could not believe it, she could not let herself fall in love. She was scared of love, it had been rare in her life and she was hurt too much.

"Look, I just- first time I loved someone, we were together for a day before my foster dad was shot by my fault and I ran away. Second time, I met the guy stealing a car and lived in that car as we became... theives. And I ended up pregant in prison, with nothing left after that." the blonde declared.

"You walls are really high." Mary Margaret told her and she chose to ignore that comment.

"You talked to David yesterday?" she asked.

"I did." the teacher replied.

"How did it go?"

"Great, actually." she answered and looked at the clock. "And you have to go to work. With Killian."

"Mom." she said. "Stop, that."

Mary Margaret simply smiled.

~~~

I don't know if you like those moments with MM or with Henry, etc, but I think they are important, because there's not just Killian in Emma's life.

So, what do you guys thiiiiiink?

OUAT TOMORROW THOSE TWO WEEKS WERE LONG.
