A New Chance

Chapter 9

I'm sitting down in the couch and I'm in shock from what I just did to Neal. He honestly deserved that and much more. I'm sitting there and I get a call from my mom. I answer it.

"Hi baby, how are you?" I smile.

"I'm good, and you?"

"Good just wondering if you're going to come over for dinner." I smile.

"Of course, I'll be there at 7." I hang up and smile. I never would have thought that I would be talking to my mother like that, not especially what I did to her.

*Flashback from a couple of  weeks ago*

"Killian I don't want to talk to her." He sighs. "Love you have to talk to her." I sigh. "She's not going to, I hurt her." He nods. "She will forgive you." I scoff. "How do you know?" He smiles. "Because she's your mother and if she has a good heart like you do, she will." My face softens.

"I hate it when you're right." He smiles. I lean in and give him a kiss. "I'll be waiting here in the car ok?" I nod then open the door. "Killian..." He laughs. "Get going love." I Pout. "Not gonna work, so go." I scoff. "Fine." He laughs as I step out of the car. I walk up to the senior home and stood in front. I turned around and looked at Killian.

He gives me a reassuring smile. I turn around and walked back in. I walk up to the receptionist and sigh. "Hi is umm Mary Margaret still living here?" She gives me a weird look and starts to type. She's outside by the pool. I nod. "Thank you." She stops me.

"She never gets any visitors, who are you?" I sigh. "Her daughter." She scoffs. "In her records it says she doesn't have any family members." I look down. "I brought her here, but long story short I need to ask her to forgive me." She nods as she writes my name in and gives me a visitors pass.

I follow her and I see my mom sitting reading a book. "Mary Margaret you have a visitor." She ignores me and continues to read. The receptionist walks away and I sit in front of her. "Hi momma." She closes the book and sits all the way up. "What can I do for you Mrs. Cassidy?" I sigh. "It's just Emma mom come on." She nods and opens her book again.

"What do you want?" I start to cry. "Momma I'm sorry." She ignores me. "I'm sorry for treating you like this, I'm sorry that I left you here when my dad and my brother died." She continues to read. "I miss my mother." She ignores me again. "Find don't talk to me but all I need is your forgiveness." She closes her book and sets it beside her.

"What happened to that old Emma, who cared about all the glamour?" I continue to sniffle. "She's gone, the real one is left." She nods. "We can go back to the way it was momma." She shakes her head. "We can never go back to the way it was." My heart broke, of course she doesn't want me back, I don't blame her.

She picks up the book and starts to read it. I get up and I fix my purse. I start to walk away when I hear her cough. "Maybe if you come back tomorrow during breakfast we can talk about what forgiveness actually means?" I smile. She doesn't want me back.

"I'll be here." I turn back around and I walk away. I run to the car and I smile super big. Killian gives me a big smile as well. "By that huge smile on your face I can say that it went well." I nod. "It did." He smiles. "So how about we go celebrate this?" I nod as I kiss him on the cheek. "Thanks Killian." He smiles.

15 minutes passed and we make it to the city's downtown area. We get out of the car and go eat. Once we finished we walk along the shops and just had an awesome time. I was so happy that honestly nothing could make it better.

We sit down at a bench and watch as the sunset goes down. "Emma I know we've only known each other for a little bit but I have felt like I've known you for all of my life." I nod. "Once you get divorced do you want to marry me?" I coughed. "You want to marry me?" He nods. "Killian I don't know, I mean I honestly thought you were going to tell me something else." He nods.

"I know it just felt right, and my feelings for you are true and I know yours are as well." I smile. "Killian I think we should wait before deciding that, I've been dealing with an unhappy marriage for a longtime and to go into this all of a sudden." He nods.

"I'm sorry Emma..." I kiss him. "Let's just be like this for now, just us, no titles." He sighs and nods. "Very well." I nod as I grabbed his hand. Even though being Mrs Jones did sound nice I am just too scared to make such a commitment again.

*End Of Flashback*

I sigh as I look around and I noticed I was still in the living room. I leaned back and all I could think about was Killian. I mean thanks to him I have a relationship with my mom but I still can't commit to him like that, I'm just too damn scared.

I look at the time and noticed that it was getting late and I had a dinner date with my mom. I get up and walked passed the office, I see Neal still sitting there and I chuckle. Good riddance, he deserves all this. I make my way to the room to see if I can change into something a little more decent.
