Okay so realised that the first chapter was not what I intended to post as I had added a little bit of Killian into it and for some reason it didn't upload that part but it's there now so if you want you can go back and read it (it's nothing important so if you don't read it you won't miss out on anything).

I don't own any of these characters. They all belong to Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis, the writers of Once Upon a Time.


What time is your lunch break?

Emma looked at her phone to realise Killian had texted her. Ever Since she suggested they meet up sometime they had texted quite a bit.

Around 12:30-ish. Why?

She knew exactly why but she tried to play it cool. She didn't want to seem to desperate.

I recall a certain blonde lass asking if I was free for coffee sometime and I was wondering if she is free for lunch?

Sure. I'll see you at the coffee shop.

"Something has put a smile on your face," Ruby said.

"I'm not smiling," Emma snapped, quickly wiping the small smile off her face.

Ruby just laughed, "What ever you say, Emma. Do you want to go to Granny's for lunch?"

"Sorry, I can't. I need to go to the... I need to go to the gas station." Emma didn't want to tell her friend. No doubt she would want to meet Killian. She was a huge fan of his and talked about him non stop

"Uh huh. Sure," Ruby gave her a knowing smile and walked back to her desk.

Emma looked at the clock on the was. It was just before twelve. She decided to put her head down and get some work done before she could leave. She needed to find this guy or she would have to start looking for a new job.

Killian stood outside the coffee shop. It was just after twelve thirty. He soon spotted her across the street and waved. She flashed him a smile and walked over to him.

"Hi," Emma said, shyly. She had no need to be shy but for some reason she felt like a teenager all over again talking to a boy for the first time.

"Hello, Swan. How have you been?" He pushed open the door for her and held out his arm. When she raised her eyebrow, he simply did the same and she laughed as she walked in.

"I've been good. I'm just a bit stressed about work right now, that's all." Emma wasn't going to give him the details about the whole thing but it was okay to tell him what was going on. Right? "What about you?"

"Aye, I've been great. I'm currently shooting a new film and, surprisingly, it's been great fun to shoot."

"Oh, what's the movie about?" Emma was genuinely interested. She likes movies but she definitely preferred books.

"You'll have to wait and see won't you?" Killian laughed when she pouted at this lack of information. "What would you like to eat, love?"

"A grilled cheese would be amazing. I haven't had one in what seems like forever," Emma said. As he stood up she reached into her purse to give him money but he refused.

"It's quite all right, Swan, this ones on me," Killian turned away to stand in the queue.

Emma took out her phone and went through some work emails. When she looked up from her phone she noticed someone looking at her. She soon realised who it was and immediately stood up. It was the guy she had been looking for. She debated whether or not to go after him or spend the rest of her lunch with Killian. She didn't want to lose her job and she could always text Killian apologising for running off. The man across the coffee shop took that moment to run out of the coffee shop. After grabbing all her belongings she ran out of the coffee shop and looked about for him. She spotted him about a block away and took off running after him.

Back at the coffee shop, Killian had returned to the table with his and Emma's lunch but Emma was no where to be seen.


Emma returned to the office and reported the good news to her boss.

"Well done, Emma. I take it he's down at the police station now for questioning and all that?"

"Yes that's all taken care of." Emma flicked a strand of sweaty hair away from her face. She chased after him for quite a while before he made the mistake of stopping to catch his breath.

"Good," her boss said.

Emma left her boss's office and headed for her desk. On her way there she bumped into Walsh.

"Emma! I heard the good news." Walsh smiled at her and Emma shivered. Walsh had always creeped her out ever since the office christmas party a few years back. He had asked to dance with her and did all these crazy dance moves and shrieking like one of those flying monkeys from The Wizard of Oz. She tried to steer clear of him whenever she could.

"Yeah. I managed to catch him. I need to get back to work now." Emma pushed her way round him and sat down on her chair. She was just about to text Killian when Ruby dropped a stack of papers on her desk.

"This is all the information you need for your new case. Congrats on catching that other guy," Ruby smiled at her. "How was the 'gas station'"

"Ruby stop it," Emma loved Ruby but sometimes she was quite infuriating.

"Stop what? I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm only asking how your drive to the gas station was," Ruby let out a laugh. "Who is he?"

"RUBY. There is not 'secret guy'. I was just meeting up with a friend that's all," Emma said. She really was telling the truth. Killian was nothing more than a new-found friend.

"So why did you say you were going to the gas station earlier on? You could have just told me," Ruby said. She didn't seem entirely convinced by Emma's story.

"I didn't tell you in case you got jealous I didn't go to Granny's with you," Emma said.

"I'm not going to get jealous just because you have other friends. Jesus, I'm not that controlling am I?" Ruby laughed again and walked away.

Emma had made a start on reading through the files Ruby had given her when she realised she hadn't gotten round to apologising to Killian.

Hey, I'm sorry for bailing today. I saw the guy that I had been looking for and I had to hunt him down while I had the chance. Can we maybe reschedule?

Of course. And no need to apologise, Swan, I got a double lunch.

Emma laughed and then turned her focus back to reading through her files

When Killian arrived home he found himself not hungry. Thank you, Swan. He let out a small chuckle to himself and picked up the script to the movie. He started rehearsing his lines when his phone buzzed.

Do you want to meet up again tomorrow for lunch?

Absolutely. Do I get a second lunch again?

Hopefully not, I was hungry for the rest of the day.

Same time and place?

Yeah, sure.

Good night, Swan

Good night, Killian.

Killian then noticed the time and let out a yawn. As he walked up the stairs to his bedroom his thoughts were filled with blonde hair and swans.


Okay so I have come to the conclusion that I am terrible at writing long chapters so I'm sorry! But thanks for the followers and the favourites! They mean a lot to me. Reviews would be appreciated xx
