Killian stood on the docks watching the waves crash in to each other, something he felt very calming. He didn't want to be on the Jolly Roger and at the same time he didn't want to be in town. He had just gotten back in to town since Emma left him locked in the closet. Some random girls voice still rung in his ears as he closed his eyes remembering the phone call he overheard.


Flashback

Killian finally opened his eyes taking the small closet in. He hated Emma for putting him there but at the same time, he hated her for leaving him and yet again tying him up. This girl had a thing about tying Killian up and Killian was going to use that to his advantage later on.

Hearing footsteps walking in he sat up more alert as he tried to see who was in the room through the small silver in the door.

"I promise you; once I get there we will blow the cover on this town. Magic or not, they won't be able to hide from us much longer. Just keep your ass there and I'll be there soon."

Instincts took in and Killian knew he needed to go and help Emma out. He couldn't let the town apart because he didn't say something. He was no longer the Pirate who tried to help Cora. He was now the pirate who was going to help Emma and do whatever he could to protect her.

He was now hooked on the girl. And he had to get back to Storybrooke to protect her.

End Of Flashback


Killian focused back on the water when he heard steps behind him. He tensed up expecting it to be Neal or Gold. Ever since he got back to Storybrooke, he was expecting them to come after him and get him. Instead he had to sit back and wait. He heard there had been some drama with Regina and Cora, and was glad it didn't involve him. Though hearing snow was going through a tough time made him feel something, something like guilt. He never wanted snow to be hurt throughout all this. He was pulled back to reality when the small voice caught his attention causing him to listen for once.

"Why are you back in town?" Henry asked looking to the pirate, not seeming to upset with Killian. Though, he didn't look much like a pirate. Killian was dressed in jeans and a black shirt, though the leather jacket he was wearing and the combat boots were a sign he wasn't going to ever give up being a pirate.

"I wanted to come back for my ship. Then I'll consider leaving. I just need to talk to your mom first Lad." He told Henry as he turned looking to him. Henry didn't look mad or angry, which was shocking to Killian. Considering he almost killed his grandpa.

"You can stay you know. But you have to stop the revenge. Mom doesn't like it and I don't either. I just want everyone to get along for a moment. And I will need your help." He said as he looked to Killian.

It took him a moment to think, It was a hard choice for the former pirate. But he agreed.

"Awesome! Can we go on the boat? I promise not to touch anything and I promise to listen." Henry said with a grin on his face. Killian laughed and nodded.

"Alright let's go. But touch anything and your mom will kill me. And you have to tell her when you are going to be here alright? I don't want her killing me Lad." He told Henry as he led Henry up on to the boat picking the kid up so he wouldn't fall.

They goofed off on the boat and enjoyed having fun. Killian showed Henry around the ship and told him stories enjoying the boys laugh at the stories. Henry told Killian about the town and told him how each person was.

They sat on the deck, more like Killian sat on the rails and Henry stood behind the Wheel as Henry pretended to be driving the boat. He would ask Killian different names for things and Henry would laugh as Killian said them.

It had been a few hours and both boys were having fun until a certain Blonde cleared her throat causing both boys to turn and look to her. Killian flashed her a smirk and Henry grinned looking over to his mom.

"Hi Mom! What are you doing here?" Henry asked laughing from his spot behind the wheel. Killian stood not far from Henry his arms crossed over his chest.

"Gold told me he saw you come down here and I wanted to make sure you were dead." She said smirking as she looked to Killian taking in his appearance. He looked so damn good it was killing her not to touch him.

"I promised Hook I would tell you and I was going to. Just when I got home." Henry said as he moved towards Emma smiling.

"Its fine. Just tell me from now on okay? You too Hook. If you are going to be around Henry I want to make sure that I know first and that Henry would be safe. So Rules yes?" She asked watching Killian.

"Sure Lass, what are the rules." Killian asked looking to Emma.

"Henry can't skip school. If he comes down here and its school hours, you have to take him either to me or to Snow. Next, if it's raining you can't hang out here. I'm too worried something would happen and I can't be here to protect either of you. Third; No more revenge trying. If you at all try anything; No more hanging out with Henry. Am I clear?" She asked both boys looking to them. Henry and Killian looked to each other before giving Emma a smirk that could mirror each others.

"Crystal." Killian said smirking as Henry nodded.

Emma was in for trouble. And she knew it. The look on her boys, no Killian wasn't her boy. He never would be. But the look on their faces let her know she was in trouble. She watched Henry give the pirate a hug, something she was sure no one had ever done.

"Ill see you around Hook. Thanks for letting me hang out here today." Henry said before he started away, Telling Emma he would meet her on the docks and to go easy on Captain Hook. Emma laughed shaking her head. Her son was something else that was for sure.

"Thanks for letting him hang out with you today. Neal is busy planning his wedding with Tamara and Gold isn't too trusted at the moment." Emma said looking to Killian who moved towards her. "New clothes?" She asked him finally taking in the different look he was sporting.

"What can I say, if I plan to stay here for a while longer I must fit in." He told her with a smile. "And it's no problem. I don't mind having him. Though he is going to need to learn to speak like a pirate to hang out with me, of course." He told her as he stopped just a few feet from her. "Listen Emma there is something I need to tell you. It's important and about the town." He told her as he looked to her, wondering if she would believe him.

The look on Hooks face told her it was important and she wasn't going to push anything away if he was willing to talk to her about something.

"What is it Hook?" She asked him putting her hands in her back pockets, watching him with real concern.

"Emma? Did you know that Henry is standing on the…" Neal's voice broke through looking at them. Emma sighed looking to Killian and then to Henry.

"Yes I do. He was hanging out with Hook today. Is there a reason you are here?" She asked looking at him sighing. Sometimes she wished he had never followed them back to Storybrooke.

"Yeah I need to talk to you about the Wedding. Alone." Neal said eyeing the captain. Hook smirked looking to Neal.

"I will talk to you later Emma. Don't worry, I won't forget." He told her giving her a smile before he headed down and in to the Jolly Rogers cabin smirking as he did.

He had to tell Emma what was going on. But he knew that with Neal around it would never work.

Emma and Neal headed off the ship, and started making their way in to town behind Henry.

"So Whats up?" She asked him wondering what was so important that he would come to the ship to talk to her.

"So Tamara and I are planning the wedding and were wondering how you would feel with Henry being in the wedding but you being there too. Tamara doesn't have too many friends and I suggested the idea of you and she liked it. So what do you think?" He asked her looking to her.

Part of Emma wanted to run back to the ship and ask Killian to drive away until they could no longer see Storybrooke. But another part was okay with being in the wedding because she got to keep an eye on Henry while there.

"Sure. Id like to be there for you guys." She told him giving him a smile. She started thinking of who she could bring with her as a date and her mind kept going back to Killian. She couldn't believe she was thinking of him by his name. He had always been hook to her. And now she couldn't stop herself. Seeing Henry head up to the Apartment, Emma told Neal she would see him later and followed Henry up closing the apartment door after them.

"Hey Henry, Did Hook say anything when you guys were hanging out?" She asked him as she looked to her son. If Killian said anything to anyone, she was wondering if it was Henry.

"No, He just told me if things start to get rough again I can hang out on the ship and that he will try his best to protect me. I like him mom. He's not as scary as people think." Henry said before he headed to his room. David, having been in the kitchen looked to Emma as she sat at the counter.

"Henry was hanging out with Hook?" He asked setting a cup of cocoa in front of his daughter, something they both knew she needed. Emma took a drink and started to relax nodding.

"Yeah, He wanted to and by time I got there, he had been there a while. I don't think hook would harm Henry. Its good for Henry to have some one out side of the family to talk to I guess." Emma said drinking more of her Cocoa before she looked to where her mom laid feeling sad. She wished she could help her but at the same time she knew she had to get over this herself.

"Im going to head to the station for my shift. If anything changes call me okay?" He asked before he kissed his daughters forehead. She gave him a warm smile before watching him leave. Each day they were all there it was harder for her to understand being a daughter. She had always been alone and now she had parents. She got up and moved to Snow smiling as she sat on the bed.

She laid down behind her mom and wrapped her arms around her before she started telling her about the day, hoping it would bring Snow back to the way she was before.


David walked past the station and made his way down the docks. He wanted to warn Hook and hoped that Hook would take it to heart. Stepping up on to the boat he started looking around for the pirate.

"Hook?! Hook come out here!" David yelled again waiting for the pirate to ccome out. No sooner had the words left David's mouth did Killian step out of the cabin putting his hands on his hips.

"What is it with you Charming's, Walking on to a man's ship like it's no big deal?" He asked, though a hint of laughter behind the words. David shot Hook a look to let him know he wasn't playing around now. Killian let his eyebrow raise as he looked to David.

"What did I do this time?" He asked curiously. He hadn't been wearing his hook, Henry had been there and he didn't want to hurt him so he put it up. He had debated putting it back on but was going to wait until David left to do so.

"I heard both Henry and Emma where here. So I came to issue a warning. If either of them get hurt while they are here hanging out with you, I will personally come Kill you. Are we clear?" David asked. He had the same look in his eyes Killian saw in Emma's earlier.

"Crystal." Hook Said looking to David. "Don't worry Charming. I would never do anything to hurt them. Whether I like it or not, I care for them both. They will never be harmed while they are here with me." Killian promised seriously. David watched the look in the Pirates eyes before he smirked.

"You love my daughter." He pointed out taking too much joy in this for the pirates liking.

"I never said that." Hook stated, not even bothering to deny it. He knew he had fallen for the blonde. He just thought he was keeping it hidden from her better.

"You didn't have too. Here is some advice. Be honest and Be yourself. And Stay away from my daughter. She doesn't need a pirate hurting her or bringing her down." Charming said looking at the man. Hook looked over the man in front of him and watched him for a moment.

"I told you before and I wil tell you again, Ill never hurt Emma or do anything she doesn't want me too. I already feel horrible for hurting Gold, though he deserved it." Killian said, David agreeing. "But your daughter would never want a pirate like me. So we have nothing to worry about Ya?" Killian said as he turned and headed back in to the cabin closing the door after him. It was going to be a long night and he knew it.

The next morning Emma woke late and got Henry to school late. She wasn't working until later but she still couldn't believe she hadn't been up on time. Maybe it had to do with the dream about Hook she had had. It was one of the best so far but at the same time, she knew it was never going to happen.

Walking in to Granny's diner she sighed seeing no table open. But the spot across from Hook was. He said he needed to talk to her right? Emma placed her order and headed to Hooks table sitting a cross from him.

"So you said you wanted to talk?" She asked as she looked to him. Hook looked up from his Hot Chocolate and put his hand and hook down on the table.

"Good Morning to you too Love." He said a bit of his teasing nature back. It had been some time since He had been himself, ever since he tried to kill Gold. He saw the look in Henry's and Emma's eyes and knew he had messed up.

"Right, Good Morning Hook. Start talking." She said giving him a smile. Killian laughed shaking his head. Emma smiled loving that she was able to make him laugh again.

"Aye Some one is bossy." He mutter smirking as Ruby set their food down. He took a bite of his fries, something he had become addicted too since coming here, and looked to Emma.

"I need to know that you trust me so you will believe me." He said as he looked to her. He had to know she was going to believe him before he said anything. Emma nodded stealing a fry looking to him. He seemed so worried about something, very unhook like.

"I trust you Hook, Start talking please?" She asked him. He believed her when she said she trusted him and Emma had meant it. She didn't know when but she had started trusting hook more than she should. Hook sighed looking to her. Here goes nothing.

"When you had me locked away in the closet, I heard a girl come in. She started talking to some one on the other end. She was saying how she was on her way here to blow the cover on this town? Expose the magic." He said as he looked to her eating another fry. He kept his voice down not wanting any one to hear him.

Emma sat back as she started drinking her hot chocolate listening to him. He looked so worried she couldn't help but believe him. Why he was worried she would never know.

"Hook, Who was it?" She asked him curiously. If some one was coming here to expose the town, she had to do whatever she could to stop it.

"I don't know love, a certain blonde had me locked away." He said smriking as he looked to her. Tamara and Neal walked in to the diner and took a seat at the bar. "Who's the lass with Bae?" He asked looking to Emma.

"Oh that is his fiancé Tamara." Emma said shrugging as she looked to hook. "That reminds me. Neal asked me to be in the wedding and I really don't want to be alone. Will you please come with me?" She asked him, biting her lip. She had no idea what made her ask but it was out there and she was glad she did. Killian looked somewhat shocked. Though he wasn't saying now so far.

"Sure I'd love to join you. But you have to do one thing for me first." He said smirking as he looked to her. Emma groaned knowing she shouldn't have asked. He always had a condition to him.

"What is it?" She asked him, her eyes unable to leave his.

"You have to kiss me, But not in a public place like this. I wouldn't want to have that happen. So you come to the Jolly Roger today to pick up Henry and I get a kiss." He said smirking as he looked to her. Emma looked him over wondering what was going through the pirates mind. She was screwed that was for sure.

"Okay. But Only cause I want a date for this wedding." She told him, lying. He said right through the lie but didn't say anything because he knew it would make her take it back.

"Aye love, for the weddin. See you later." He said with a wink before he paid for their food and slipped his leather jacket on heading away from the table and out of the dinner.

For once, Emma was looking forward to going to the Pirates Ship to get her son.
