The Bird and the Captain
CS fanfiction
Chapter 2

He lays awake, looking at the ceiling above him, cracks of the wood, sometimes water drops fall down through the woods when it rains outside. He couldn't get her out of his mind. She was so inchanting. The name Emma suits her well.

He has encountered beautiful mermaids on his journies. Mermaids who tried to lure him, crew and his ship to their deaths. Witches, wizard, fairies and what else, but hen ever encountered someone like her.

He thinks of her that night and that's when he falls asleep and dreams of her.

Two days later and he still was in the village he stays in with his crew.

The early morning sun is already shining through the autumn trees, making the woods look like it is on fire, but of course it isn't. The sun on his face and body makes him feel warmer, even if it is chilly outside.

He gave orders to his crew that they would stay here in Malowal a while longer as planned. Only he knows the true reason why.

He enters the lake and looks for her, for her birth form, but doesn't sees her anywhere. Where could she be. He hasn't seen her in the town at all, not in bars, not on the streets. He was curious to know why.

"Hello Hook." He turns around towards the direction of her enchanting voice he will always love. There she is, standing in the water that covers her waist and legs.

"Didn't expected you to return here. Pirates always leave as soon as possible. Traveling the different seas, visiting different places." "Aye. Pirates like to travel from time to time. Killing some sea monsters along the way." A smirk on his face and his eyebrow positioned higher than the other.

"I would love to see your ship one time. Would be interesting and fun." She smiles at him. The smile he loves so much since the moment he saw her smiling.

"Aye, love." She walks out of the water now. "Tell me some stories you have experienced and heard." "There is not much nice things to tell." He does place himself on the rock he did sit on the day before.

As she positions herself on the ground before him does she tells him what is on her mind. "Like how you had tons of gorgeous looking women from bars in your bed? Killed people, robbed people, the whole pirate lifestyle?"

He looks kinda dumbfounded by this while she keeps going on with speaking about the pirate lifestyle. "Kinda know stories of pirates who came here, telling each other stories about their lives before and after they became a screw of a pirate ship and and about women they shared their beds with. How much of an asshole their captain was, that kinda thing. I saw them. Kinda spied on them. Don't have much else to do here anyway."

She pointed around of her. "As you can see. No bar to get cheese sandwiches from." He looked at their suroundings while she points it out, looks at every spot her fingers point towards.

"I'm kinda that pirate, but…" he doesn't wants to say it. "What?" she looks at him, waiting for him to continue his sentense. Both her eyebrows upright. "I want to become the person I was again before my brother was still alive."

She looked at him and he saw the pitty appear in her eyes. "I became a stronger person and a pirate."

He took the bottle of rum from his pocket and wanted to take a sip. He gestured the bottle of rum to her and she accepted, putting the bottle to her lips and drinks a few sips from it before she gives it back to him.

"Wow kinda heavy stuff. I like it."

After a moment of silence do Killian speaks again. "Why are you never in the village?" she looks at him, trying to get out of it. He knows that feeling well to not tell everything, but he knows he can trust her. They are kinda alike. He knows that they both are.

"Is that your buisness?" Is all she says while looking towards the water now. She looks like she doesn't wants to talk about it, like she has a secret hiding in the deepest parts of her soul. A secret that rushes through her veins.

"I didn't saw you there in the village anywhere and a woman like you doesn't deserves to be alone. Bad people everywhere to take advanges of you." The water started to bottle again and he looks over at her and the water and back again, a few times looking back and forth.

"I can handle myself." Is all she says, the water bottles more now, higher. "I believe that you can love. Kinda the magic trick you do here." He points with his hand towards the water.

"That is not me. That just happens sometimes, is because of the bottom of the lake. It has it's mysterious." He shakes his head and smiles his cheeky smile. She keeps hiding something.

"Nice to have seen you again lady Emma. It was nice speaking with you again. My crew needs my assistence or they think they can take over my ship."

He bows to her and walks away, towards the harbour again. When he looks over his shoulder he sees her looking at the water, sitting motionless.

I'm going to find out what she is hiding. She doesn't has to deal with her secrets alone.
