Emma's P.O.V:

I awake to a certain Jones shaking me gently. My eyes flutter open and I sit up slowly, yawning. 

"Good morning, love," he says with a charming smile. I stretch my arms, mumbling a good morning back. I look at the clock beside me and its holy shit. Man I slept in. It's 11:00 am. Well I was pretty exhausted after work and allergies the and all that crap. I thank Killian for waking me and get out of bed.

I walk into the bathroom and splash some cold water onto my face, freshening up. I dress in sweatpants and a tank top, tying my hair into a messy bun. Once I've finished I head downstairs for breakfast with Killian. We talk, laugh, joke around. He's such a good friend. After finishing up our breakfast, I take my plate and his to the sink and start cleaning the dishes.

"Love, what the bloody hell are you doing?" Killian asks, coming into the kitchen.

"The dishes, of course. I'll get to the rest of the house next don't worry," I answer. Is there something else he wanted me to clean? Is that why he's looking at me funny?

"Uuuuh... love? You don't have to clean the house..." he says confused. 

What?! Wait this must be some sort of test.

"Oh I see, trying to trick me? Very funny. Don't worry, I've got this. You can go back to whatever it is you do, I'll take care of all the cleaning," I insist.

"Emma why are you doing this?" Killian asks.

"Um, don't I have to?"

"No..."

"What?!"

"Why would you bloody have to?!"

"Oh... I'm sorry, I'm just so... used to having to clean and do all the work, I guess I thought... I mean what I'm saying is my ex... The one who set me up, he um... he made me do all his work or he threatened to hurt me and... I'm sorry I'm... Never mind, you probably don't care, I'm just gonna go..."

I step out of the kitchen confused. Why am I not cleaning something? Why am I not being hit for not cleaning something?

I decide to take a shower to clear my mind. After letting Killian know, I take my time under the water, enjoying the heat in the cold of the day.

"Emma!" Killian calls from downstairs.

"What!"

"Liam is on the phone, it's for you!"

"Okay, I'll be out in a second!" 

I finish up, dry myself, and dress in a warm red dress, black leggings, a read plaid coat, and my short black leather healed boots. I'm going to take a drive around town just to get a good feel of where I am. I get the feeling I'm going to be here for a while. 

Rushing downstairs, I have Killian write down the phone number for me, and I dial it on my cell once I'm in the car. 

Beep....

I take a turn and drive straight.

Beep....

I swerve to avoid a patch of ice.
