Author's Note: I own none of these characters. Only the story itself is my own. That's it.
Emma and Henry were sitting on the couch with the Disney version of the Peter Pan movie paused on the tv. Hook was in the other room grabbing the popcorn from the microwave. "Are your feet ticklish" Henry asked her out of the blue.
"Why do you want to know that, kid?" Emma asked curiously. "Well" Henry continued "my feet are ticklish and I was wondering if I got it from you?" Hook returned with the popcorn as Emma spoke "yes my feet are extremely ticklish".
Hook gave a mischievous grin. He was definitely logging that in his memory banks for a later date. Emma yawned and stretched her feet out on the table getting comfortable. It was too tempting for Hook and he began tickling the soles of her feet. Emma howled with laughter "stop it! Stop it Killian!" He stopped tickling her feet immediately.
Emma had never once called him by his name before and the moment was not lost on him. He knew he had changed for the better. This Swan woman made him want to give up his three hundred year revenge, and change his path. She made his brokenness feel whole. This was the first time that she had truly acknowledged this change though.
An almost giddy smile spread across his face at her words. "Wipe that ridiculous grin off of your stupid face" Emma said somewhat jokingly trying to cover up her faux pas. She didn't mean to use his name but it had just slipped out.
A mischievous grin spread across her pirate's face "I happen to be very ticklish behind my ear. Just in case your curious". The emphasis he put on the 'very' made Emma blush slightly. He should have nicknamed himself Captain Innuendo not Captain Hook. "If you ever try to tickle me I would be so very displeased" he said once again accentuating his words. She felt tempted to throw the bucket of popcorn at him to wipe the smile off of his face. Instead she hit the play button and Peter Pan started playing again.
It was fun watching Killian react to the ridiculousness of his Disney counterpart. "You mean they think I look like that! I am way better looking than him!" he shouted irritated at the tv. Henry had fallen asleep during the movie and was currently leaning on Killian's shoulder. "Poor guy" Hook said vaguely amused. "Off to bed for him" he said while lifting him up surprisingly gracefully.
Hook carried Henry up the stairs and tucked him in. Emma's heart swelled at the sight of his care for Henry. "Goodnight, I love you" Emma whispered kissing Henry's forehead. She stood on her tip toes and kissed Killian's forehead "goodnight, I love you Killian". Hook's cheeks turned bright red as a smile crossed his face "I love you too Emma."
