Well, I didn't expect this story to get this much attention right away. Has this seriously not been done before? Well anyway we'll start with the reason why I wanted to write this story in the first place; Killian watching Peter Pan. I wish ABC would actually make an episode about that. It would be hilarious!
"Swan!"
Emma smiled as she got out of the car and found Killian waiting for her outside of her new apartment building. She had called to let him know when she and Henry would be back but she hadn't asked him to wait for her here but yet here he was. The perfect gentleman.
Emma walked into Killian's waiting arms and pressed her lips eagerly against his.
Killian was only too happy to return her kiss, in fact he seemed almost too eager. Emma soon pulled away from him.
"Not here," she said. "Besides we've got a lot of stuff to do."
"We do, do we?" he said. "And what would that be exactly?"
"Well besides getting all the boxes into the apartment and unpacking you'll just have to wait and see. It's a surprise."
"A surprise?"
"Don't worry, you'll like it."
Killian looked at her with his, as he would put it, 'devilishly handsome' smile on his face. "Oh I will. What comes from you I'll like."
Emma smiled. "Good then help me unload these boxes."
When all the boxes had been moved from the car into Emma and Henry's new apartment Emma went into the kitchen to make some hot chocolate for herself and Killian. She had dropped Henry off at Regina's place earlier. That was where he would be staying for the next couple of days or until she had fixed their new place up a bit. It was still extremely messy because of all the boxes and her lack of shelves. Marco hadn't had the time to set those up for her yet.
The apartment consisted of a big living room/kitchen, a bathroom and two bedrooms. It was perfect for her and Henry. It was still very small compared to Regina's mansion but Henry didn't care about that especially considering he had lived half the time in David and Mary Margaret's tiny apartment, or tiny when five people had to live in it.
When Emma came back with two mugs of steaming hot chocolate with whipped cream and cinnamon on top she found Killian on his knees, bent over one of the boxes.
Emma placed the mugs on the coffee table and bent down next to him.
"What's that you're looking at?"
Killian picked up a dvd from within the box.
"What are these?"
It appeared that he had discovered her little surprise. He was holding Disney's Robin Hood in his hand.
"Oh that," Emma said. "That's a dvd. You stick it into the dvd player and watch the movie on the TV."
"I thought movies were with real people so why is there a drawing of two foxes dressed as humans on the case?"
"Well children's movies are mostly animated cartoons," Emma said.
Killian looked puzzled.
"Animated cartoons?"
"Well they're drawings - moving drawings created with the use of technology. The people are drawn so they don't have to hire actors to play them, only for the voices."
Killian nodded.
"Seems a bit odd," he said. "But why do you have a box filled with children's movies then? Isn't Henry a bit old for that sort of thing?"
"Because adults enjoy these too," Emma explained patiently. She always found his lack of knowledge about the 21st century endearing.
"I can come up with lots of ways that we adults can enjoy ourselves, love," Killian said, grinning at her as he put Robin Hood back into the box.
"Let me guess, drinking rum?" Emma teased.
Killian smirked and patted her arm affectionately.
"Well yes that and-" his face was only a couple of inches from hers now and Emma shivered at the feeling of his hot breath on the side of her neck.
"Our chocolate is getting cold," she whispered and moved away from him to grab her mug off the coffee table.
"You seem to enjoy keeping a man waiting, don't you love?" he said
"Or maybe it's you who seem to enjoy picking the wrong moments," Emma said. "Besides I want to show you something, go sit on the couch."
Killian took his own mug of hot chocolate and made himself comfortable on Emma's new couch.
The living room was fully furnished and Leroy had made sure that her entertainment system and the rest of her electronics was working while she was in New York. Everything was perfect. At least for what she and Killian were about to do.
"Are we going to watch Netflix again?" he asked when he saw Emma turn on the TV.
"No, not this time," Emma answered. "For some reason the movie we are about to watch is not on there, even though it's like 60 years old.
"So we are watching a movie," he said. "Have I heard of it?"
Emma smirked. "Well in a way you have."
She went over to the box that contained all the dvds from New York and rummaged through it until she found the one she was looking for.
"Here," she said and threw it at Killian who of course being one-handed and holding a mug of hot chocolate, could only duck to avoid being hit in the face.
"Love, please don't throw things at me like that," he said.
Emma laughed. "Next time I'll try to aim better, I promise."
Killian just smiled. He really didn't mind. She was perfect and he loved her for it, even when she was a danger to him.
He put his mug down and grabbed the dvd that she had thrown at him. It was a cartoon as well. It took him a few seconds before he noticed the title.
"Peter Pan? Really?"
Emma chuckled at the outraged look on his handsome face.
"This is the Peter Pan that I grew up knowing," she said. "And I thought you were curious about what the stories say about you."
"Aye, I was," he admitted, "but this is drawings. It just seems foolish."
"Well," she said, "The company who made this movie produce the highest quality of children's cartoons, everyone knows about them so you really can't live in the 21st century without having seen in." Besides, I really want to see the look on your face when you see yourself as a cartoon, she silently added.
"Well go on then, love, let us watch it together if that is your wish."
Emma took the dvd from Killian and removed the disc from its case.
"It is."
She inserted the disc into the dvd-player, grabbed the remote and settled down next to him on the couch.
She smiled as the title appeared on the screen. This was going to be fun.
I originally wanted to cover one movie per chapter but I decided against it when I realized that would make the chapters way too long so that's why I chose to break it up here.
