So this is my first fanfic ever so please don't be to rough about it:) Also I'm from Germany and no Native english speaker so if you see any mistakes Sorry. It also isn´t beta'ed:)
It was one of these hot days , Florida could be so sticky with found herself standing in the shadow of the big oak, sipping on her water bottle.
"Hey, you don't look so good, where´s your princess charm?" Hearing her best friend and coworker Elsa she looked up and managed a smile. "No I´m okay, just a rough week I guess."Elsa walked closer, letting herself fall to the ground beside Emma.
"Get up, you´ll ruin your beautiful dress! I bet Gold wouldn´t be too happy about this." "Let Gold worry about more important things. I´m more concerned about your state of health. Rapunzel isn´t supposed to look like Rumplestilskin." Elsa answered, grinning.
"Hey it isn´t that bad. But I get it. I´ll go to the bathroom before the parade. See you there!" Emma answered, turning around and wanting to walk away when she heard her friend shouting something after her. "Oh by the way did you hear they hired a new Hook? They say he´s pretty hot so better watch out"Shaking her head she finally made her way in the direction of the staff´s bathroom.
Still laughing quietly to herself she didn´t realize the guy standing in her way and of course bumped right into him, which made her stumble and she would have fallen to the ground if he didn´t catch her in the last moment. "woah thanks… sorry I´m so clumsy" she hastily murmured not daring to look up.
"Not it´s okay, I should apologize for standing in the way. But shouldn´t a beautiful princess like you be a little bit more graceful?" Hearing a british accent and slight teasing voice she finally raised her head looking in the bluest pair of eyes she ever saw.
"Haha very funny. No need to play the gentleman here." She answered a bit dryly. "I meant no offense. And sorry for my bad manners. I think I haven't properly introduced myself. Killian Jones´ the name. I´m the new Captain Hook around here."
Great, just great she thought. "Oh so you´re the mysterious new guy. Nice to meet you." "oh so they're already talking about me." He said laughing a bit. "Don´t get over yourself. You know I didn´t mean it like that." She shot back, already getting a bit annoyed of this guy. What was he thinking, is he thinking he can get every woman around with his nice british charm? No surely not her, Emma stubbornly thought.
"Easy there, sorry if this came over the wrong way. Anyway I think we have to hurry a bit to get to the parade in time. See you around, I think we will cross paths more often from now on. You know our spots in the park are basically next to each other, so I´m definitely excited to be looking at such a beautiful lass like you all day."With that he turned around and made his way in the different direction of her.
What the hell? Why does he have to flirt like that? Okay he really is good looking but that doesn´t mean everybody is going to jump him with those pretty blue eyes and toned body. Oh gosh where did these thoughts come from Emma thought embarrassed. She most definitely isn´t affected by him in any way!
Making herself ready in the women´s changing room the next morning she groaned inwardly thinking about spending the day close to -my-name-is-Killian-Jones-and-I´m-so-charming aka Captain Hook winking and throwing those dashing smiles at her like the day before at the parade.
Walking out of the room she walked towards the café to get a coffee, meeting Elsa there. Her friend spotted her immediately waving until Emma made her way towards her. "Hey Girl, why so grumpy this morning?" she asked immediately as she slumped into a chair next to her friend.
"Uggh, don´t start. This Killian Jones guy, you might know him under Hook is more trouble than I ever thought" Shrieking Elsa answered "So you DID meet him yesterday! Why what did he do? Is he already haunting your dreams?" Somewhat caught she looked down rather quickly avoiding Elsa´s eyes. "It isn´t like that. It´s just he came here yesterday, looking extremely good and flirting with me like his life depended on it. I mean how could you be not affected by that?"
Big eyed her friend murmured "Well you really need to get laid so your reaction isn't that surprising. And judging from what I saw he really is hot and he threw really teasing smiles to you all the time during the parade so I think you might just take your chance." "Elsa! I don´t want to take the chance. I don't want to start something with Captain fucking Hook. Hell I don't even want to think about it. There is nothing between the two of us so stop thinking about it!"
Seriously she was getting really annoyed about thinking that there might be just something as a bit potential between her and him. Because there most definitely was not she told herself stubbornly! "Anyway I have to go now because unlike you I like to be a princess who is on time on her assigned spot. And don´t even think about telling Ruby or even worse Mary-Margaret about this! She will make up all of her stories about true love again and we both know how this worked out the last time."
"Okay bye Sunshine. We´ll meet for lunch at Granny´s with the others?" "Sure, bye!" with that she walked away, out of the café into the sticky morning heat making her way back to the changing room to put on her heavy Rapunzel wig and pretty pink dress.
Standing under a few trees near a little bridge 10 minutes later she finally let herself relax and happily greeted all the small children who wanted to meet Rapunzel.
Her Partner Graham who represents Flynn Rider usually is a bit late so she has to tell a few disappointed boys that they have to come back later to meet him because right now he is on a little adventure to catch his stubborn horse which sneaked out again last night.
Turning around to drink something her mood dropped immediately as she saw the outline of the "Jolly Roger" on the big lake in front of her. Uggh she´s never going to get a break from Jones. Trying to not let her irritate herself she looks away, of course right into those amazing eyes of him.
"Hey Beautiful! How´s the day going for Rapunzel so far? Where´s your dashing companion? Do you maybe need companion from a bad guy like Captain Hook? Just ask if you want." He shouted from his spot a few meters away raising his eyebrows. Great just great, now she has to deal with him. "Well hello to you to and no thank you for your concern but I´m just fine by myself. He´ll be here any minute now." She shouted back realizing that he moved closer to her.
"Hey stay on your spot, we don´t want the little children to have to search for the "great" Hook" "Afraid I´ll steal your attention? Don´t worry, someone as pretty shouldn't have a problem with that. Anyways my spot is just over there so nobody will have to search for the "great" Captain Hook as you put it so nicely." Now standing directly beside her he grinned asking "How was your night?" "I´m so not gonna talk to you about my night!" she spit back taking a step away from him.
"Hey hey it´s alright I didn´t want to sound jerky. I don´t even know your real name. Think we can change that?" He now more politely asked her. "No please stop annoying me." She turned her back to him but he wasn´t that easily put down. "Come on, Love. It´s just a name. And I gave you mine so it would be just fair" "Will you stop annoying me if I tell you?"
Wanting to answer he got interrupted as a family walked over to where they stood. The little girl asked her mother "Why is Hook with Rapunzel? Isn´t she supposed to be with another guy and isn´t he supposed to be bad?" Her mother leaned down and answered "Well I don´t know honey but don´t you think they look pretty cute together? Would you like to take a picture with them?"
The girl screamed excited and run towards Emma and Killian who tried to suppress a smirk hearing the words of the mother. After the family moved on he turned to her and said "Well where were we? You wanted to tell me your name because it really would be a shame if I didn´t know it given that we look "pretty cute" together." Turning to her with pouting eyes. "Ugh okay fine. If you´ll stop then. It´s Emma Swan, happy now?"
"Emma Swan, pretty name it suits you." With that he turned around and walked back to his spot as he saw "Flynn Rider" arriving and shouted over his shoulder "so bye I guess until we have the pleasure to spend some time together again."
Pleasure she thought, haha funny.
