Thank you so much pinkcrazyness for reviewing! Here's the next chapter, hopefully better than the last one.

Chapter 2- August

E- I sat on a bench on the pier that was near to the docks hoping to clear my head, and hoping no one else would come to me with their numerous problems.

Too much had happened at once in Fairytale Land before they'd left. Mary Margaret talking to David, Mulan taking the compass, tracking her down, Aurora being freed by Hook and his message to her...

What kind bull crap was that anyway? He might have feelings for me? Please.

I remembered the fight at the portal, it was almost like he'd let me win. But Hook wouldn't possibly do that. He wanted his Crocodile and-

"Emma?" I turned sharply to see a man I never thought I would again.

"August?" I asked even as I got up to pull him into an embrace.

He chuckled at my enthusiasm, "Yeah it's me."

I pulled away slightly to study his face, decidedly not made of wood.

When I voiced this observation August only laughed more, "Only because of you Emma, you saved me. You saved everyone."

I smiled. "I'm glad you're back August," I told him, sitting back down on my bench and he quickly followed suit.

"So what's been happening lately? I heard you went back to our land, what was it like?"

"Lots of ogres." August laughed. "And Regina's mom Cora, I actually feel a little sympathy for her having that woman as a mother. Sir Lancelot, Mulan, Aurora, a Giant, and the undead," I added.

August nodded, "Did you see the castle?"

"Yes, but it's been trashed. I also met Captain Hook, though I think Captain Innuendo suits him much better," I smirked and August chuckled some more.

"Now that you're back, you don't think I'm crazy, I'm not wood, and you're not trying to solve a murder do you want to go for another date. I'll get you a drink," he offered.

"Will the drink be whiskey or wine this time? Or just water," I questioned playfully.

"Wow, you really want me to get you drunk don't you?" August grinned.

I laughed, "The answer's still maybe." We continued to talk and talk for what seemed a lifetime.

I wonder if this is what having a brother was like…

K- A flash of blond hair in the corner of my vision drew my eyes from the glistening ocean waves to the pier where none other than Emma Swan sat, rubbing her temples repeatedly.

I watched for a while, wondering if she was waiting for someone to meet her or if she was just thinking.

After pacing the length of my ship several times and no one showed I made up my mind to go talk to Emma, maybe if I got shut down early on then if might not sting as much and I could finally forget about her.

The moment that my boot took a step off the Roger a man called out to Emma. She seemed to recognize him and they embraced.

I felt what was felt of my heart squeeze painfully in my chest, but couldn't bring myself to look away. They began talking and I felt the need to listen in.

Like the pirate I am, I snuck up behind them stealthily, staying well hidden underneath the pair.

The man, August, was asking questions about the Enchanted Forest and I noticed she didn't mention me.

Put out I was about to leave when my Swan said my name and hinted about my many suggestive comments.

I resisted the urge to laugh which soon became the urge to tear out the man's throat when he asked Emma for a drink, but knew she'd turn him down like she'd do to any other man.

Of course though, my Swan continued to unbalance me at every turn in every aspect without even being consciously aware of it.

After that little revelation I trudged back to my ship, sulking and not particular caring if Emma or the man noticed me, not that they would, they were too busy with each other...

Yeah, Killian's being a bit of a baby, sorry about that, but he loves Emma so can you blame the guy for pouting? He's taking everything out of context and blowing it out of proportion. Please tell me your thoughts, I'd love to hear them!
