Two weeks had passed since Belle told Emma her life-changing news. The brunette had decided to meet her brother, and she couldn't be happier. Though he had, understandably, been disbelieving and a bit reluctant at first, he came to the same realization as Belle: they were family.

Belle and Emma were currently walking out of one of the many shoe stores in the city. Though shopping was the blonde's least favorite activity, she was in dire need of some new boots.

She then asked, "You ever gonna tell me the name of this brother of yours?" with a light chuckle.

"I haven't?" Belle questioned surprisingly.

"No," Emma answered, still chuckling.

"Oh," the brunette replied simply. She then smiled and added, "You can tell him yourself."

The blonde furrowed her brows in confusion as she confusedly asked, "What do you mean?"

"Well, he wants to meet you," Belle answered, her smile growing.

"But why?" Emma asked, still confused.

Belle couldn't resist rolling her eyes before she pointed out, "Oh, I don't know, maybe because you're my best friend? And because we're practically sisters?"

Emma smiled as she teased, "I guess I can see your point." Belle shook her head before the blonde continued, "So, when does he want us to meet?"

"Well, we're having dinner at Granny's tonight, and I thought you could join us," Belle suggested.

"You sure he doesn't mind?" Emma asked.

"It was his idea," Belle answered with a smile.

Emma smiled back before she told her friend, "Sounds like a plan."

The brunette smiled satisfactorily in response. The blonde then added, "Speaking of food, I think we should grab something to eat. Shopping tires me out."

"Emma, we went in two stores," Belle pointed out.

"And that's a lot of shopping," Emma defended. She then shrugged and added, "It is for me, anyway."

Belle shook her head and rolled her eyes in response. She and Emma then made their way down the sidewalk to find a place to eat.

That evening, Emma walked into the diner. She was a bit early, so she simply sat down at the counter while she waited on Belle and her brother.

She opened a game on her phone when someone sat down beside her. She groaned when she heard his voice, "I rather missed seeing you this morning."

"I'm sure you had plenty of other women to use those lines on," Emma quipped.

"They aren't lines, darling," Killian told her. Emma rolled her eyes, and he added, "And there's the famous Swan eye roll."

"Don't you have anything better to do than annoy me?" she told him.

"Well, love, the people I'm meeting aren't here yet, so the answer is no," Killian replied, as he smirked at her.

Emma narrowed her eyes at him before she stated, "Well, if you're as much as a pain around your friends as you are to me, it's a miracle that they put up with you."

"Well, actually, it's my sister I'm meeting, and she finds me rather funny," Killian told her.

Both of them then heard the bell above the door, and he glanced that way and spoke, "And she's here."
