She's A Girl

Chapter 5

Killian's POV

Okay maybe I was quick to judge Emma, but I apologized. She was alot stronger then I thought though something was bothering me. When I was little upset at her for knocking me over I went to tell her I was wrong she backed away from me. That made me alittle worried like someone was hurting her.

"Wait what happened?" Liam asks.

"I told you. I was mad, but I went to her to tell her I was wrong. Sure I had alittle anger in my voice cause I thought she was trying to steal the spotlight. Which she said she wasnt so that made me calm down, but she still backed away at first. Isnt that alittle odd?" I question.

"Yeah alittle, but maybe it was nothing. Though then again Neal was pissed and you being mad also might have scared her for a moment." He says.

"You dont think Neal hurts her do you? I mean Neal had a temper, isnt always friendly, and people have seen him just yelling at Emma around town and at school. He wouldnt hurt her would he?" I ask.

"You know Im not the one to answer that question." He says.

The rest of the drive to school was quiet cause all I could think about was Emma. I just cant get the image of her being scared of me out of my head. Once we walked to school I looked around for Emma, but I found the next best thing.

"Hey Snow. Can we talk?" I ask her.

"Sure whats up?" Snow questions.

"Has Neal ever hurt Emma before? Has anyone ever hurt her? I want to know because she seemed alittle scared when I was a tad mad yesterday. It was like she was scared I would hurt her." I say.

"Well to tell you the truth I dont really know. Sometimes durning slumber parties we end up seeing some bruises on her back and she says she ran into something or she fell. Thats all I can tell you cause thats all I know." She says.

"Well thanks Snow, but please dont tell anyone about this." I say.

"Okay." She says.

The rest of the day things were fine until it came to soccer practice and Emma pulled me to the side.

"What can I do you for Swan?" I ask.

"Butt out." Emma says.

"What?" I question.

"You heard me Jones. Butt out. Dont snoop in my personal life or in my life at all. No one hurts me Im just clumsy." She says.

"Then why back away when I was mad. Swan you cant lie to me. I know something is wrong." I say.

"Just butt out Killian. I mean it. This isnt any of your concern. Im fine." She says.

"Okay. Your fine." I say.

She walked back onto the field and I didnt buy what she said for a moment . Someone is hurting Emma and if she doesnt want to tell me the truth then fine. I guess I'll have to keep a distant watch on her. Someone was hurting her and I could see that in her eyes, but she is too scared to say otherwise. I want to help her, but then again she doesnt want my help. Maybe I should just butt out like she said or maybe not. Ugh what to do. What to do.
