wingardium leviosa
Just as Emma wraps her hand around the door knob to her apartment, there's the sound of two people screaming and glass breaking; she enters quickly, not sure what to expect, but is immediately faced with giant relief when she only sees Henry and Killian there. They're both frowning at the shattered glass on the floor, as if trying to solve some kind of mystery.
She sighs as she takes of her gloves. "What are you guys doing?"
They look up at her at the exact same time – the sight is nothing but pure comic gold – as if they hadn't even heard her. Neither Henry nor Killian speaks, but Emma sees Killian holding something looking an awful lot like a branch (or a wand one might say) and quickly catches up.
She can't help the laugh that escapes. "This again? I thought the broomsticks taught you both a valuable lesson." The Quidditch incident as she'd begun to call it in her mind had been horrible, and had left Killian with a sprained ankle, a fine from the guy who's living room they'd burst through and a very embarrassing phone call for Emma.
(She'd had actual pain in the muscles of her stomach the day after, from keeping from laughing so much – she couldn't very well attend a 'crime scene' as the sheriff and then promptly start laughing because she found her boyfriend and son to be hilarous).
She unbuttons the final button of her coat and hangs it up before starting to scan the room for any other damage; it looks like the glass bowl is the only victim.
"We were doing just as she told us," Killian says with a frown, nodding at the television; there's a frozen picture of Hermione Granger as she's teaching Ron to say Wingardium Leviosa properly.
(Okay, so she may have seen the movies a few times with Henry, and read the books a couple of times. Just enough to recognize the scenes, so maybe three times. Or ten).
"You were trying to make the bowl levitate with the wand in your hand?" She bites the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing.
"Yes," they reply simultaneously, both gazes still turned on the small fragments on the floor. And they're so cute she can't do anything but walk around the glass splinters and pull them both in for a hug.
"I'd keep trying. Stubborn is a valuable trait," she says when she pulls back, smiling at them both. She then heads toward the bedroom and closes the door. Almost.
"Again, lad?" Killian says just as she's left, and she can actually hear the grin on his face even though she can't see him properly. Of course he knows her, and what she'd do.
She peeks out from the small gap she'd left open, and just when they both say, "Wingardium Leviosa", she makes the bowl levitate with her own magic, and the gasp from both of them is better than a Sunday buffet – and sheloves Sunday buffets fiercely – even though she knows Killian is aware that he wasn't the one to perform magic.
He's such a nerd.
("I can't believe I'm a bloody muggle," he mutters grumpily a while later, when Henry has gone to Regina and Robin's; she kisses his frown until it goes away).
