Romantic Evening

Chapter 13

Killian's POV

Okay Killian all you have to is breath, Emma Swan isnt gonna tell anyone. I walked out into the living room and she was holding a photo.

"What the hell do you think your doing?" I ask.

"Im sorry." She says and puts it down.

"No Im sorry. That photo just means alot to me." I say.

"Really? Why?" She asks.

"Because thats Jasmine and the reason the rule and the reason my hatred of Neal and Graham is so high." I say.

I looked away from her and looked down at the floor. Then I felt hands on mine. When I looked up Emma had sat next to me.

"You dont have to tell me if its to painful." She says.

"No I need to. Other then my father know one else knows, but promise me you wont tell a soul." I say.

"I promise." She says.

"Okay. Good." I say looking into her eyes.

"So what happened?" She asks.

I took a deep breath and my eyes never left hers. As I looked at her I never thought I could trust someone as much as I feel I can trust her.

"It was when I began working at the office. Belle was in college, but my other close friend came to work with me." I say.

"Jasmine?" Emma questions.

"Yeah. Anyway Gold had got his son Neal and Neal's jerk friend Graham to also have jobs. The moment I met them I didnt trust them." I say.

"You dont have to continue if its to hard." Emma says giving my hand a squeeze.

"No I can do it. They both asked out Jasmine and told her not to go with them because they arent good people. She thought I was just being the over protective friend I have always been. She told me not to worry. Days past, then weeks, then months, and she seemed different. They had did something." I say.

"What did they do?" Emma asks.

"They broke her. Jasmine didnt come from a good home, her father was rude a mean to her, and Neal and Graham found out her secrets. They used it to get her to have sex with them and to do whatever they wanted to her." I say.

"Oh thats terrible, but if she wasnt talking to you how did you know?" Emma asks.

"She finally told me. One day she just snapped. She came banging on my door a 4am and told me everything. As her friend I also told her I'd protect her, but I failed to do so. When I went to get her some tea. I heard yelling of pain coming from the bathroom..." I say but stopped.

"Hey you dont have to finish it." Emma says.

"I went into the bathroom and she was cutting herself saying she wanted to die. I got the razor away from her before she could cut deep. I called 911 and they took her away. When I went to visit her she told me her she felt like she was going crazy because Neal and Graham kept putting needles in her arm and giving her weird pills. So she asked me to put her and a mental institution and never let her out until she believes she is better." I say.

"And thats why you wanted to the rule to stay? So Neal and Graham couldnt hurt anyone else?" Emma questions.

"Yes. Since there was no proof they did that stuff and no one would believe a crazy woman. Neal and Graham get to stay where they are. I knew all the woman in my office who are my friends were safe because of that rule, but now thats its gone anyone could be next." I say.

"So is that also why Belle being with Gold freaks you out because of what his son did to your other close female friend?" She asks.

"Yeah. I know Gold is tough and I also know he wouldnt actually hurt a woman, but that doesnt mean Neal and Graham wont try to hurt Belle when Gold isnt around." I say.

"So if someone gets hurt like that its my fault." Emma says.

"No. Swan it wont be your fault. We just have to make sure no one from the office goes with them." I say putting my hand on her cheek.

"So thats why you were so worried about me around them. You were just trying to protect me just like you were protecting every female in the office with that rule." She says.

"Yeah. Look Im sorry I was a jerk about it. I also know you were right Snow and David, August and Lily, Regina and Robin, Liam and Zelena, they are all happy with each other. So is Belle and Gold. Im just terrified that Neal and Graham will pick one woman in the office to hurt. To be honest with you I think they already picked one." I say.

"Who?" She asks.

"You. Emma. I think they picked you as their next target." I say to her.

Her face went white and she just froze in place. I wrapped my arm around her and pulled her close. She placed her head on my shoulder and I placed a small kiss on her head. They wernt gonna hurt her. I'll make sure of that.
