When Emma Swan was just an infant her parents abandoned her. She had no one, she did not know what love felt like. Every night she would sit at the end of her bed at the orphanage. Emma would peak her head out the window and look at the one star that shined brighter than the rest, hoping, praying, wishing one day she would have a family. Somewhere to call home.
One of those bitter, cloudy, lonesome nights when she was no more than six or seven a young boy about her age crept into her private quarters. Which was nearly impossible with how sealed up they kept it. It felt more like a jail than a place to call home.
Emma covered her face with the blankets as the boy slipped closer to her bed. As he stepped closer she slowly let the blanket fall from her face. She cleared her throat and peered at him. "Who are you?" she asked harshly.
He grinned and his pearly white teeth lit the dark room. "I'm Killian." he stepped toward her his smile still bright., reaching out his right hand.
Emma's face remained stern as she stared him down not accepting his handshake. She crossed her arms. "Well Killian..." she began her eyes still examining his whole body. "My name is.. Emma. Emma Swan." She sat back still not shaking his hand.
Killian felt slightly hurt because of it but did not let it bother him. He sat at the end of Emma's bed. She was still very unsure of him but she did not stop him. "I think I've seen you before." he looked closer at her as the moonlight shined down on her through the curtains in the window.
Emma nodded. "Do you live here?" she asked her arms still crossed in front of her chest. Her skin was raw from the cold.
Killian tilted his head thinking of an explanation. "Yes. Well at least for now..." he looked away from her. He smiled but Emma could see how heartbroken he was when she looked into his eyes. She too understood that feeling.
Emma uncrossed her arms and sat up on her knees leaning over to him laying a gentle frigid hand on the back of his. His eyes locked hers, his smile faded. She smiled softly, and whispered "You seem really cool..." she got interrupted by a booming voice coming toward her room. It vibrated the whole building causing something tacked to her wall to fall. As the voice came closer Killian quickly scurried to see what fell.
He bent down and picked up a a sharp metal hook that was tacked to her wall to hold up a picture frame. He looked over to her holding it in front of him with a smirk. "It's just a hook." he chuckled.
"Hook?" she stood up off her bed and walked over to him, a smile still upon her lips. Emma took it from his hands. Thinking to herself what she could call Killian since what kind of seven year old boy wants to be referred to by such a title. "Hook." she smirked.
"Yeah it's a hook. Looks pretty dangerous." he cringed.
"No silly." she put the hook back on the wall. "that's what I shall call you."
Killian laughed and nodded. "Alright, Swan."
As soon as the words escaped his lips a huge man came stumbling in. "STUPID BOY!" he shouted taking giant steps toward Killian grabbing him by the arm dragging him along. Emma fell backwards onto the firm ground as the man pushed her out of the way. "Now I see why no one wants you."
Emma stood up quickly going after the man who was hurting who she would like to say was her new.. and only friend. She clenched her fist running full force to him punching him right in the middle of his back. "Let him go." she said sternly.
The man laughed mockingly at her as he loosened his grip on Killian's arm still holding onto him. "Aren't you a cutie." he grinned down at her. Emma spat at him furiously taking a step back. As Killian struggled to catch his breathe. The man stomped his foot toward her trying to scare her and it worked, she flinched and a tear fell from her plush cheek. He scoffed while turning around toward the door slamming it behind him and the boy. Emma laid on the bleak floor holding her legs tight to herself trying to keep herself from crying.
{{This is just when they first meet kind of a flashback per say. The rest of the story will be when they're older but once in a while I will write in flashbacks to show more of their history because it isn't exactly the same as on the show.
And PLEASE leave feedback. Preferably positive but if you have suggestions or things you want to be explained further please let me know:) I really want to keep this updated frequently and actually end up finishing it <3 My Instagram is onceuponatimevideo if I don't get back to you on here}}
