Captain Swan One-Shots

Truce, Part One

"That arrogant, conceited jerk!" Detective Emma Swan complained as she stormed into the office she shared with her partner, David Nolan.

"What did Killian do now?" he asked, trying to stifle a chuckle at her flustered state.

Emma sat down at her desk before she frustratedly answered, "He knows I order the same thing every day, yet he had the nerve to serve me chamomile tea. When I went back in the shop, he said it was because I seemed tense."

David then interjected, "Well, if your mood now is any indication, I can see his point."

The blonde leveled him with a glare before she continued, "He then obnoxiously flirted with me while he corrected my order. It was ridiculous," with a roll of her eyes.

David couldn't hold back his chuckle this time, and Emma annoyingly asked, "What the hell is so funny?"

"I'm sorry, Emma. But it's kind of funny watching how much he gets under your skin," David replied.

He does not get under my skin," Emma defended.

David gave her a knowing look that she ignored. He then told her, "It's hard to feel sympathy because you continue to go in his shop even though you know you can't stand the guy."

She took a deep breath before she spoke, "The Cove is on my way to work - it's convenient. And maybe, you know, he'll have a sick day."

David rolled his eyes this time before he told her, "Considering that he hasn't had one in the entire year since he opened the coffee shop, that isn't very likely to happen."

"You are not helping, David," Emma stated matter-of-factly, and he only shrugged his shoulders in response.

They then received a call about a tense situation at one of the banks. A couple of men had robbed it, and they were now holding everyone hostage because the cops had been notified.

David and Emma secured their guns in their holsters before they quickly made way out of the station and to the bank.

Resolving the hostage situation took until after lunch. They finally managed to arrest the robbers and took them back to the police department.

David and Emma grabbed a quick bite to eat before they started on the paperwork. However, they were almost immediately called in on a car accident where foul play was suspected. So, they set off once more.

As it turns out, the battery wires had been purposefully cut by the victim's ex-husband. When they tracked him down, he admitted to it, and he was arrested with a charge of malicious intent.

The two detectives had just finished both sets of paperwork. The blonde had filed it away before she faced her partner and spoke, "Today has been rather interesting and exhausting."

"But you wouldn't have it any other way," David told her with a grin.

Emma smiled at him as she simply answered, "Nope." She then added, "Neither would you, Detective."

David smiled back at her in response. Both of them then began preparing to head home for the day.

When they had made it to their vehicles, David offered, "You're welcome to join Mary Margaret and I for dinner."

"Thanks, David, but it's movie night for Belle and I," Emma responded.

The blonde man smiled before he told her, "Alright. I'll see you later, Emma."

"See you later," she responded with a smile before she climbed in her yellow bug.
