This is just my favourite Christmas song and can't stop imaging SwanQueen whenever I hear it.
I don't own either the t.v show Once Upon A Time or the song Calling to Say
It was very early in the morning when Emma woke up to a very excited Mary Margaret jumping on her bed. Oh god, why so early? They had gone out the night before to hangout with all their friends and to drink, and now Emma was slightly regretting how much she had actually had. She couldn't believe that MM was up this early, but then again she was really just a big child and on Christmas morning she really shouldn't have expected anything less than being woken up at 6 am.
Emma had just sat down with her coffee when she heard the doorbell. The rest of the gang from last night rolled in. First David followed by a very smitten Ruby and Belle. Emma envied all of them as they all seemed to be completely recovered from last night while she was still sporting a pretty rough hangover.
Once they had all been situated around the small tree Emma and Henry had set up for Mary Margaret, gifts were handed around Emma couldn't help but feel a warm glow of happiness. She had a family, finally, and she knew they all cared about her as much as she cared about them. There was only one thing missing to make it perfect.
When all the gifts were open and the rest of her friends were sitting around the table trying to figure out the Rubik's Cube that someone had gotten Belle, Emma snuck away with her cell phone to make a call and waited nervously for an answer on the other end.
"Hello?"
" I wasn't sure if I should call, you know with it being so early and on Christmas after all."
"Oh please Ms. Swan, I have an 11 year old child. There was no chance of sleeping in beyond 5."
"Ya, it wasn't much better over here. I hope I'm not keeping you. I'm just calling to say merry Christmas."
"Not to worry, Henry is currently enthralled by a new comic book so you didn't take me away from anything. Merry Christmas to you, too, Ms. Swan."
"I'm not really sure where we stood, but I'm glad were still friends. You just came to mind and it's weird with you not being here."
"What do you mean?"
" Well, I was sitting around with everyone and I just felt like I had a family but it wasn't complete. Not without you, and Henry." Emma quickly included Henry in hopes of not sounding too obvious. "But, yeah, I'm just calling to say merry Christmas."
"Well, I invited you over last night but I seem to remember you declining my offer."
"Yeah, we all went out last night, driving around to see the lights. Just like they always do, everyone there but you."
"Well the offer still stands if you would like to come over later today. I know Henry has a gift for you and he would be pretty happy if he could watch you open it."
"Yeah! That sounds great, I'll be over this afternoon. Anyway, I'm just calling to saying merry Christmas."
Before she hung up she thought she heard Regina say "Sure you were, Emma." but it she just chalked that up to the pounding behind her ears that hadn't quite faded yet.
Well that's that. I have an idea for more chapters if anyone's interested so rate and review! Other than that I'd say not bad for a first attempt at writing.
