The Bird and the Captain
CS, AU fanfiction
Chapter 4:
She was watching him. Flying above him, leaving the lake behind her.
Waterwomen can leave their lakes behind, but they have the desire to stay there or to get back to it sooner.
She remembers the moment she saw him enter the bank. She had looked down on him, he was gorgeous looking, a awesome hot jawline, gorgeous blue eyes like the color of the sky on a bright day, gorgeous brown hair, but what she saw first was his hook. A iron hook instead of a hand.
She has to be cautious around him so she will not get hurt again. She wants to trust him, but she doesn't really knows if she can. She has to protect herself, protect her people, but she feels a connection to Hook and it terrifies her.
She keeps following him towards the harbour and goes to sit on a rooftop of an old looking house and sees him enter a ship, his ship, The Jolly Roger.
"Kind of a nice looking ship do you have there." Does she say in her mind, only chirping that comes out of her mouth.
It was dark now. She had sit down on that rooftop for hours, looking at that ship and the people that walked on the streets towards their homes. A home, a true home.
Sad she didn't had it like that. Stuck to her magic, stuck to her family tree. Always learned to be careful. She was in the forest now, walking through it, alone in the dark.
As she enters the lake yet again does she walks over it, towards the hidden cave. Green hanging creepers before the entry way, blocking the opening from few.
She walks, but first has to check that no one is following her. There is no one there. She walks into the cave, hearing the singing voices. The outstanding beautiful singing voices, like an organ.
"There you are" Says the brown haired women who goes by the name of Isbel. Brown eyes looking at her.
"You have kinda been outside the whole time. Is there something you want to share?"
"No, there is nothing, just did go to the vilage, nothing special really." "You have seen a man haven't you?" Emma looks from the corners of her eyes towards her. Busted.
"You remember what happened last time?" Yeah she knows it very well. A man who goes by the name of Neal betrayed her.
Has told the people of the village that waterwomen trully excisted and since then are they both getting haunted. Mabel and Cailida are already captured and killed, but that was two centuries ago.
Still haunted by that day. She has sworn herself to never ever trust a man again and put her walls down that she has build up to protect herself for anyone, but here he is. A man she feels a connection with. Captain Hook.
He walks on the street towards the bar. He enters and orders a drink, rum of course.
"Hello Captain Hook." Emma… she is standing before him, in a crowded bar full of people. "I know. You didn't expected me to come here, but I can, but rarely do it."
"Do you want to drink something my love?" she smiles "Give me your rum. I would like that." She is flirting and takes his. "How did you got that hook, Captain Hook?" "A crocodile got my hand. A true monster, nothing like you. Killian is my real name, Hook is just a nickname."
"Killian, suits you better." She smiles and touches his hook with her fingers. "Thank you my lady."
They talk about different things, what the waterwomen are, what they like to do, how old Emma is, just random topics. It is like a date. They both have a great time, they enjoy each others company.
"Thank you for the rum, it is better than goatsmilk." He has to smile about that. "Indeed it is love."
