Welcome everyone to my new series.
So this is idea is inspired by a Roleplay I did on Wattpad with user HittheDarkwan. Ok so 22 year old Emma Swan is a surrogate mother, when the baby's parents want to force her to do something she doesn't want to, she runs. She finds herself in Storybrooke, Maine where she meets Killian and his son Liam. (This series maybe 3 part possibly more I don't know.)
Again Emma is 22 at this point, Killian is 28 and Liam is 7.
So I had posted this earlier, then got a comment from a guest informing me of somethings I wasn't aware of about surrogacy, so I fixed a few things to make this a bit more realistic. So to the guest who wrote the comment, I want to say thank you for informing me of those facts. I did not mean to offend you or miss inform in anyway. I, like I said did a roleplay and that was the age the person playing Emma chose and didn't think twice about it. I hope you give the story a second try and you enjoy it.
I do not own OUAT or its characters just my imagination. This idea isn't fully mine, half the credit belongs to HittheDarkwan.
Part 1: friends/we will be there for you
Emma had been driving awhile, every once in a while her hand going to her small bump, it was all for him. She was currently driving through a small town; it was the first one in hours. When her bug started to sound funny, she pulls over and it conks out.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it" Emma cursed while getting out of the car 'great' she think 'now I'm stuck in some town called Storybrooke.'
Killian is driving down the road when he spots the yellow bug down the road. He can see the young woman needed help. He drove up and parked "Do you need help?" he asks cautiously approaching her.
Emma is startled by the sudden appearance, she steps back, her hand going to her stomach protectively "I'm fine."
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you… just your car…" Killian says motioning to the car. "Killian Jones" he says holding out his hand.
"Swan" Emma says, she decided she did not want to give her first name. She glances at his hand "Fine" she says taking his hand "I must warn you; I used to take self-defense lessons. Don't try anything."
Killian chuckles "I wouldn't dare…" he says, then glances down and notices her small baby bump, she was pregnant. "Look, let me show you to the diner, get the tow truck called. It will be warmer there and the food is great."
Emma smiles softly. She hadn't eaten in at least 2 hours "Ok, let's go."
Killian nods "Alright… and if I may suggest, they make excellent pie."
"I'll keep that in mind" Emma laughed as they began to walk.
"Um… not to be forward… but… you… you're both alright?" Killian asks awkwardly.
"Yeah" Emma nodded "just hungry."
Killian smiles "Good" he says with a nod. He looks at his watch "we may even catch my son there; Ruby the waitress has been helping him with his math homework."
"Ugh. I hated math when I was a kid" Emma says.
"Me too, sadly the boy inherited my math skills" Killian says with a chuckle.
Emma chuckles as well, as she blushes.
They approach the diner "This is it" Killian say leading her inside, he goes straight to the counter to make the phone call.
Emma goes and sits in a booth; she feels her phone vibrate once again. it's her baby's biological dad and his wife, they kept sending her messages, some were warnings and others where threatening.
Killian sits down across from her "Alright… tow truck will be here in about a half hour." He hears her phone vibrate on the table, and he gives her a look.
"Ignore that" Emma tells him, ignoring another text from the baby's mother, this one a bit more threatening.
"Ok then… so what do you want, it's on me?" Killian says handing her a menu.
Emma shook her head furiously "I can pay my own way" she says. That was one of issues her baby's, Henry she had been calling him, parents had thrown in her face: finances. Emma, being 22 years old, and not to great of a job, so not much money didn't want any help.
"It's the least I can do, getting your car fixed won't be cheap…" Killian starts.
Then he is interrupted by his 7 year old son "Hey dad."
Killian takes his son in for a hug "Hi Li" he says giving his son a kiss on his head.
"Who's she?" Liam asks.
Emma smiles hesitantly at the boy "Swan…"
"Like the duck?" Liam asks.
"Liam… manners" Killian says embarrassed.
"It's ok" Emma laughed before addressing Liam "yeah kid, like the duck." Her phone buzzed again, she looks and sighs.
Killian notices the somewhat nervous look on the young woman's face "Are you sure everything is ok lass?"
"Yeah" Emma bit her lip "Everything's cool."
"Liam… why don't you go play pinball" Killian says, taking quarters out of his pocket to give him. Once Liam leaves he says "Seriously Swan… is that your child's father, is he threating you or something?" he asks sensing something wasn't right.
Emma sighed, sternly staring at Killian she says "If I tell you this… you know it and that's it. No sympathy, no treating me like some charity case. Nothing. Do you understand me?"
Killian just nods to answer.
"I'm a surrogate mother" Emma frowned, tapping her fingers against the table nervously. "Everything was ok until the parents found out that the kid would be born with a heart condition. They want me to abort the baby, but I refused. I mean even at seventeen, when I got pregnant I didn't do that, I gave my child to a family who could provide and take care of him. Who would love him like I did. Eventually, they found out where I lived, and began to harass me. So, I packed up everything that I could carry, and hauled ass to Storybrooke. Now they're throwing all sorts of stuff in my face: my financial situation, threats…"
Killian felt himself fuming hearing what this girl was going through. "Their own child…" he rubs his face with his hands. "You did the right thing… they shouldn't be treating you like this. Especially, the threats. I would of never…"
"You?" Emma asks raising an eyebrow.
"Liam was born via surrogate… we treated her like family… I could never ask a woman to do that, no matter what was or wasn't wrong with the child" Killian says.
Emma smiled, not wanting to probe deeper "That's a 'nice guy' move."
Killian smiles back "Well she was doing something big for us" he says with a shrug "I hope you know… your safe here, Liam and I have your back."
"That's nice to know. Really, you have no idea" Emma says with a smile.
"Well then… let me start by feeding you two" Killian says with a smile.
Emma sighs "Fine… only cause me and the kid are hungry."
"So… can I know your first name yet?" Killian asks.
"Emma… it's Emma Swan" Emma answers.
"Nice to officially meet you Emma" Killian says with a smile. "Look I know what I said before, but I want to offer you something…"
"I said no charity" Emma says annoyed.
"Don't think of it as charity Emma…" Killian says "I have a friend, her name is Regina… she's a lawyer, and she practices family law. I think she can help you with everything… then you won't have to worry about his parents."
Emma puts a hand to her small bump, "He's half mine…" Emma says shyly "the wife, her eggs where messed up or something… my egg was used" Emma looks down at her hand with a smile "I didn't sign anything officially yet."
"I think that will help" Killian says with a smile.
3 months later
Emma is sitting on the couch with Liam, she was approaching being 7 months pregnant, and it was getting tough to get used too. The Jones family had been a big support for her. Killian offered her their guest room until she found a place for herself; get a job and that kind of stuff. And she had to admit, she really liked his son Liam, after the talk at the diner has they were getting ready to leave, and Liam noticed her small belly, he looked with this cute expression, and pointed to her stomach and asked "Is there a baby in there?" Emma laughed, she found it to cute. They were forming a cool bond, it often was more like brother and sister, but sometimes they crossed into a mother and son thing, she liked that, since she never got that with her own child the first time.
Emma, annoyingly with the help of Killian, found a job at the police station, where he worked. Their current receptionist would be retiring soon; she was scheduled to leave about 2 weeks after Emma would be returning from her maternity leave. She just a few weeks ago moved into her own apartment. Emma found a nice apartment at a great price, it even came furnished, Emma was suspicious Killian had something to do with that fact.
Emma excuses herself from Liam and heads to her second bedroom, which will be the nursery. Emma stops in the doorway and watches Killian paint. She leans into the door frame, and links her hands to cradle the underside of her belly and smiles. The one thing Killian helped with that she was truly grateful for was introducing her to Regina, with her help, her son was officially hers now, she didn't have to worry. "Looking good" Emma spoke up.
Killian turns around and smiles "Thanks… think your lad will like it?"
Emma looks down at her stomach "I think so, this color is so relaxing."
Killian walks over and puts a hand on her belly "Here that lad, your mommy is setting up a nice relaxing place for you" he says then looks up at her with a smile.
"Where's Liam?" Killian asks as he goes to finish up the painting.
"He's watching the Disney channel" Emma answers with a chuckle. "Thanks for this Killian, painting for me."
"Well it wouldn't be right or healthy for you to do…" Killian says with a shrug. "It's no problem really."
Emma rolls her eyes "We lucked out finding you" she says honestly.
Killian smiles "I feel pretty lucky to Emma, I really enjoy getting to know you, and helping you out." Then Emma makes a face "You alright?" he asks worriedly.
Emma chuckles "Yeah… sorry… he's just kicking up a storm is all…" she says with a smile "He really likes you… he gets excited when he hears your voice."
Killian grins "And you already seem to be able to calm him" he points out.
Emma nods, she hoped she could once he was here too. "You promise you're going to stay around… I don't know if I can do this by myself."
Killian nods now "I promise Emma. I may not be his father, but I AM your friend, and I will be here, day or night."
Emma gets emotional "Thank you so much Killian" she says going into a hug.
Killian wraps his arms around her the best her can "My pleasure Swan" he says gives her a good hug, he was her friend and had no plans to let her down.
So what do you guys think should I continue? Thoughts?
