Jones Family Short Stories

Surprise, Suprise

Emma's POV

There I cried, at my kitchen counter, staring at the test I held in my trembling hands. I couldn't believe it. I was pregnant. And I hated myself for it. I knew I wanted a life, a future with Killian. But not this soon. We were only married for one month.

One freaking month. We never talked about having children together, ever. And just springing this on him, what good would that do to our marriage? How would he react? And most importantly, how would you care for a child here in StoryBrooke!?

On top of that, I'm not just a citizen, but the savoir and sheriff. Under all that stress, me and my magic are unpredictable. And my magic! What if it goes haywire again! Around the kid!? I would hate myself forever if I hurt the kid because of my magic.

I still hate myself for hitting henry the last time. As I took a shaky breath, I realized what I had to do. The only thing I'm good at; running away. I didnt want to risk waking Killian up, so I used my magic to pack up only one suitcase full of all the stuff I need.

I grabbed it off the floor and looked around. It was so peaceful and quiet now. I sigh. I grabbed a piece of paper and pen. I wrote three letters. One to my family, one to Killian, and one to henry. Each of them, I poured my heart out into.

Tears fall as I walked out of my home with my stuff. I don't know how long I was going to be gone, but I know for at least 10 months. I stuffed my suitcase in the back of my yellow bug I kept after all these years. I let out a sob as I admire the symbol of my marriage, the house.

I jump in the car, turn on the engine, and drive off. I don't look back once. I just know that will just cause me more pain. The streets of storybrooke are quiet at 2 am, nothing surprising there. I drive towards the city limit, seeing the green sign in the distance. Good bye everyone.

Killian's POV

I woke up to the soynd of my phone going off. Without reading the contact, I pick it up. "Hello?" "Killian! Is emma with you!?" I hear mum on the pther line frantically asking. Concern grows within me. I look around the room. "She isn't here." I answer, to myself and mum.

"Oh god. can you please come over so we can make a plan?"
"On my way." And with that, I hang up. I jump out of bed and get dressed, worrying about my swan.

I get dressed and run downstairs. But before I could walk out the door, something on the counter in the kitchen catches my eye. I turn around confused, I walk over to it to see three envelopes. I picked one up. It read Henry. The other two ready my name and family.

I grab them and dash out the door.

I walked up to the door. Before I could knock the door swing open, revealing belle who looked like she was crying. my face dropped at the sight of her. "Come in." She says pulling me the home. I saw henry at the island with his head down crying, Regina comforting him.

Snow was sobbing into her husbands chest. Belle went back and cried into rumples shoulder. Ruby was there and even shedding a few tears herself. "Do you have anything of her?" She asked coming up to me. I sigh. "I saw these on the counter before I left. Three letters.

One for henry, me, and everyone else. I say taking them out of my inside pocket of my leather jacket. I hand two to ruby. She takes them and runs over to henry. Whispering something to him. This makes his head slowly come up, his face was red and tear stained.

Ruby hugged him and gave him the letter. He thanked her and took it gingerly. She walked over to dave and handed him the other one. The made snow pull her head out. She walks back to her spot leaning against the table. I opened mine and read it.

Dear Killian,
Before I start, just rmeber that you didn't do anything, and I love you with all my heart. I brought this upon myself, and I can't go back. You were the best husband I ever had. Killian this is true love, even though it might not seem like it. I beg you not to drink over me. Please stay the man you are. You are a role model to Henry. I know the this hard for you, but I'm doing this for mostly your sake. Good bye, my love,
Emma.
Tears well up in my eyes as the letter drops to the floor. How could she do this to me? I thought our life was going great! And she just left in the middle of the night. I fell betrayed, back stabbed. My thoughts are interuppted by snow reading her letter out loud.

"Dear family, I love you all very much. I did this for everyones own good. You are the best family I could ever have. But I have made a grave mistake. And I need time to figure it out. Please, I beg you not to go looking for me. I want to be alone right now. But always keep in mind that I will think of each and every one of you everyday I'm gone. Because this is hard on me too. As much as I hate to do this, I have to. Good bye everyone. emma." She says. She cries even harder.

I clench my jaw. Henry went back to his head down, sobs raping his body. "This isn't fair!" Ruby yells, slamming her fists on the table. We all jumped and then to her. "I don't care what she says, we have to look for her. I don't know what she is so scared of to tell us!" She explains.

I nod. "But she said not to look for her. We should at least have her a month to cone back, maybe two. After that, we'll look for her. Emma swan needs her space." belle pitches in. I sigh knowing she's right.

*a long time skip*

Its been 11 months, and we still haven't found emma. First, we looked all around storybrooke, then moved on to new york. Everyone was depressed, and tired. I was walking down a street back to my hotel when I spotted something that caught my eye.

A blonde woman in the park, with a baby wrapped in a purple blanket in her lap. I walked a bit closer to her and realized, that was my swan. I gasp and ran as fast as I could to her. As I got closer, she didn't see me. She turned her gaze to the baby. "Swan!"

Her head snapped up as soon as I yelled that. I knew it was her. I got closer to her, but as I did. It clicked that she had a baby, and was gone for 11 months. She finally saw me and took up from hwr place on a bench. Anger boiled inside of me. "Killian!?" She exclaimed.

I stomped over to her. "Emma!? why the bloody hell do you have a child!?" I yelled at her. She was taken back and took a step back. "Killian please, let me explain-" she said before I cut her off. "No! No explanation is needed. You ran off to cheat on me and have a baby with another man! I get it. That little letter you wrote me, meant nothing to you." I say and run off.

"Killian! She's yours!" Emma screams at me. I stop dead in my tracks. Could she? I turn around to find emma crying and walking away anyway. I huff. I knew she was lying. She's probably walking to her new bastard of a lover. I can't believe that bloody woman!

I walk back to the hotel to tell wveryone the news.

"YOU FOUND HER!!?" Snow screamed. I wince but nod. "Snow please calm down. Wolf over here?" Ruby say pointing to her ears. Snow apologizes. "But... Thats great Killian! But why didn't she call us, or follow you?" Regina asked. I sigh.

"We kinda got into a little fight." I admit. They all gasp. "What do you mean?" David asked. "She had a baby with her. I assumed it was another mans and yelled at her." I say scratching behind my ear like I always do when I'm nervous. "She had a baby!?" Snow repeated. I nod. "Are you sure its someone else's?" Ruby asked. I shake my head

"She said it was mine but then stomped off. So I didn't really believe her in the heat of the moment." I say. "You idiot!" Regina yelled. I rolled my eyes. "We have to find her!" Snow says running out the door. We all follow her out the door.
