Captain Swan - Falling for the Bad Boy

Emma Swan is done with dating and relationships, regardless of the fact that Mary Margaret is determined to set her up with someone while taking her out barhopping. It's just too bad for MM that the one guy Emma has her eyes on at The Captain's Rum is the one guy her sister-in-law refuses to set her up with. Ruby and Mary Margaret try to warn her about the bartender's infamous reputation as the bad boy of Storybrooke, but Emma refuses to listen. Besides, she's not looking for anything serious, only someone who can give her a night of pure bliss without all the strings. And she has an inkling Killian is the perfect man for the job. What could possibly go wrong?

This is an alternative version of Through the Rising Tide and answers the question: "What if Emma didn't flee from Killian the night she met him?"
