A/n:
I have to small kids at home and they love „Jake and the Neverlandpirates" - I once read a fanfiction about Hook watching Peter Pan and I thought writing something like this might be fun. So Cygnet (Emmas and Killians daughter) is about 7 here (I dont know if someone aged 7 will still watch Jake and the Neverlandpirates but it wouldn't work if she is much younger/older)
Have fun reading – maybe I'll write more Cygnet/Emma/Killian/Henry fics – I quite like the idea of them having a sweet little girl
They had never told her. They decided not to. Together. Although Killian never wanted to hide something from his daughter, especially not about his past. She knew who her grandparents were, who nearly everyone was in town. But she was too precious, too innocent to know who her father really was. Killian loved his little daughter but there were things she didn't need to know. Other kids in town didn't even know anything about the whole „in another life we were fairy tail figures". As people weren't able to go back to their old lifes they adjusted and accepted being in the modern world.
Emma was at the Sheriff Station, Killian in the kitchen and Cygnet and two of her girlfriends sat in the living room in front of the television.
Killian took the tray filled with a plate with sliced fruits, three cups of juice and cookies and went into the living room.
"What are you watching, girls?" The two girls giggled while they watched him moving towards them; his daughter didn't even look. Killian placed the plate and cups in front of the three. With curiosity he watched the TV show while walking over to the huge diner table.
"Bloody hell, that's crap", he suddenly said after watching the show a bit. "Dad!", Cygnet said and turned. "Pardon, sweetheart, but these are all lies. There have never been any baby pirates on Neverland nor was there an island where they could have lived on."
"And how do you know?", one of the girls asked annoyed. "Well, as I've been...", he started but stopped immediately. He looked at the three girls who were looking at him in anticipation. "I just know", Killian said and looked down. The three girls rolled their eyes and turned their attention back to the tv show. They watched in silence.
"Bloody hell. Who is this?", Killian suddenly asked and appeared next to the couch.
"Daaad", Cygnet sighed. One friend of her smiled widely.
"That's Captain Hook."
"He clearly is not", he protested.
"Yes he is. And that's the Jolly Roger, his ship. And his crew. Mr Smee, Skipper and Bones."
"That's not Mr Smee and the Jolly is a two master not a one master and who the hell are Skipper and Bones? And where is the rest of the crew? He can't sail the ship only with three others and - bloody hell, the girl has pixie dust? Where did she find that? It's quite rare and..."
"Daaad! You are embarrassing." Killian looked at his daughter apologetic. He walked back to the diner table murmuring. However he wasn't able not to watch the show.
"Oh come on, there is no volcano on Neverland. Where did these people get their informations? It's all wrong."
"How do you know, Mr Jones?", one girl kneeled on the couch, looking at him curiously. Killian didn't say anything, he scratched behind his ear and looked at the girls.
"Oh my god", the little girl turned back to Cygnet, "isn't the name of your dads ship Jolly Roger?" Cygnet lifted her head.
"And didn't your dad have a prosthesis?", the other girl whispered. Cygnet turned her head, looking at Killian directly.
"Oh my god, your dad thinks he is Captain Hook", Cygnets friends bursted into laughter.
Cygnet only stared at him. In her eyes pure realisation. While her friends were still laughing and giggling, Cygnet got up and went to her dad. She hugged him tight. Killian's heart stopped. He didn't know if he should say something or not. He hugged her too.
"Your secret is safe with me, Captain", she whispered and kissed him on the cheek. He watched her walking back to her friends.
How the hell should he explain this to Emma?
