Ok I finally have a new chapter! Sorry I took so long to update, I've been recovering from surgery. Also, I just wanted to clear up some confusion. I got a few reviews asking about a few parts of the story and I just wanted to answer them. First of all, I hadn't really thought about the fact that Emma's brother had the same name as her ex, and that totally doesn't make any sense. So I went back and changed her brother's name to Henry. Henry is Emma's son obviously, but she's only a teenager in this story, so it's her brother instead. Also, I put her last name as Swan but it really should be Nolan. So I changed that too. And lastly, Emma's brother was not in the last chapter, but keep in mind he is only a baby. In my head I was picturing that he was napping, but I should have specified that. I hope I cleared up any confusion, but if you are still confused about something, just put it in a review! That said, let's move on to the story!

Emma jumped in her mother's car, a big smile on her face. Mary Margaret was a little stunned. "Memma!" Henry yelled while clapping his hands. Emma turned around in her seat and said in a cheery voice, "Hello Henry!" She turned back around as her mom started to drive.

"Ok, who are you and what have you done with my daughter?" Mary Margaret said with a laugh. "I take it you had a good day?" Emma nodded, "Yeah, I had a pretty good day." Emma's smile was rare, with as stressed as she was about school all the time and after recently going through a break up, a smile was quite rare from her.

"Why was your day so good?" Her mother asked. Emma smiled, "Well, Ms. Patterson was actually nice today. It was shocking. I personally think it's just because of Killian, but that's beside the point. I barely have any homework, it shouldn't take me more than an hour." Mary Margaret still wasn't getting what she wanted to hear.

"Did you talk to him?" Emma suddenly acted casual. "Who?" Her mother laughed. "I think you know who!" Emma smiled and rolled her eyes, "Okay, okay, I talked to him." Mary Margaret kept pushing. "And?"

Emma blushed. "He might have given me his number." Her mom was so happy for her daughter. Emma's breakup with Neal had a big impact on her. She stopped eating for over a week until her mother finally convinced her to eat something. She never smiled and she always wanted to be alone. Elsa had tried to help, but Emma didn't want her help. She didn't want anybody's help. Mary Margaret was happy that her daughter now had someone in her life to make her smile again.

"So are you gonna text him?" Mary Margaret asked. "No," Emma responded, "I won't text him until I need to." Mary Margaret laughed and shook her head, "Oh, Emma."

After finishing her Chemistry project, Emma tried to finish the little homework she had from Ms. Patterson's class. She couldn't figure out one of the problems. Ema asked her mom, but she had no idea. "Why don't you ask Killian," Mary Margaret asked her daughter. Emma sighed, "You really want me to text him don't you?" "Just do it," Mary Margaret said and left the room.

Emma pulled the crumpled up piece of paper out of her pocket. She went to her contacts and typed in the number, saving it to the list.

[{Emma} Hey, it's Emma!]

She sat at her desk, waiting to see if he'd respond. She out her phone down and went back to at least try to solve the problem. Then her phone went off.

[{Killian} Hey Emma! :)]

[{Emma} So, I have a question.]

[{Killian} Yes?]

[{Emma} It's about Geometry.]

[{Killian} I take it you and Geometry aren't very good friends.]

[{Emma} Haha, very funny. I'm completely stuck on this problem and I have no idea how to even begin to solve it.]

[{Killian} Let me guess. Problem 7?]

[{Emma} How'd you guess?]

[{Killian} I had trouble with that problem too.]

[{Emma} Oh ok. Would you be able to help? You seem to be a lot better at math than I am.]

[{Killian} I think I can fix that. :)]

[{Emma} I've heard that one before!]

[{Killian} Do you want me to come over and help?]

[{Emma} Is that too much trouble?]

[{Killian} No it's not a problem at all! Address?]

[{Emma} 2027 N. Swan Ln.]

[{Killian} Thank you! See you soon.]

Emma put down her phone. She ran out of her room into the kitchen where her mom was feeding Henry a jar of baby food. "Hey mom?" Mary Margaret turned to look at her daughter. "Yea?" "Killian said he'd come over and help me with my Geometry. Is that okay?" Mary Margaret smiled. "That's no problem! I'd actually love to meet him myself!"

"Mama!" Henry cried. Mary Margaret turned back to Henry. "Okay, here's more," she said as she out another bit of the mush in Henry's mouth. Just then they heard the garage door open and Henry yelled, "Dada!"

Emma ran to her dad and gave him a hug. "Hey dad!" David hugged his daughter back and said, "Wow a hug from Emma, that's rare!" "Hey! I give you plenty of hugs dad," Emma said defensively. "I know, I know," he said and smiled.

He walked over to Henry. "How's this little monster doing?" Henry laughed with a huge smile on his face, showing his four front teeth. Mary Margaret glanced at Emma giving her a you-know-you-need-to-tell-him look. Emma's dad was very overprotective and she didn't know how he would react knowing a boy was coming to their house.

"Dad?" Emma said slowly. David turned towards her. "Yeah?" Emma sighed, "So I need help with Geometry and I invited one of my friends to come help me. I know you can be protective, but I thought I'd tell you that it's a boy. I promise he's not my boyfriend, I swear," Emma explained.

David looked at Mary Margaret. Emma could tell that her mom had probably mouthed something. Her dad looked back at her and smiled. "Emma, that's totally fine." Now it was Emma's turn to smile. She went over to her dad and hugged him again as she said, "Thank You."

Just then, they heard the doorbell ring. Nobody moved, so Mary Margaret gestured to Emma. "Are you going to get that?" Emma quickly turned towards the door and she ran to answer it. Her mom and dad exchanged a glance that clearly showed tag they knew that their daughter liked this guy.

Emma opened up the door and smiled when she saw Killian. "You wanna come in?" Emma asked awkwardly. Killian sensed that she felt very awkward about him coming over so he accepted her invitation and said, "Sure, I would love to come in." Emma led him to the kitchen and introduced him to her parents.

"Killian, this is my mom, Mary Margaret," Emma said as Killian extended his hand to shake her mother's. "It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Nolan," he said kindly. She smiled and said, "Please, just call me Mary Margaret." Emma liked how much of a gentleman he was. Neal was the complete opposite. "And this is my dad, David," Emma said. Killian shook his hand as well. "It's a pleasure meeting you as well."

After the introductions were made, Emma asked, "Killian do you want something to drink?" "Water is fine, thank you love," Killian answered her. Emma glanced at her parents and she thought that they seemed very approving. She brought Killian his water and said, "Let me go grab my homework. We can work on it out here." She saw her dad nod his head slightly. Emma knew her dad would never approve of her in her bedroom with a guy, alone. Emma had the discernment to know what to go and what not to do as far as boys were concerned. Her dad was just, well, overprotective.

She brought out her homework. Her mother had resumed feeding Henry. Her dad was sitting at the counter working on sone sort of paperwork. David was the Sheriff of Storybrooke. He often came home with work to do at home. Emma sat down at the kitchen table across from Killian. "Shall we get started?" Killian asked her. Emma smiled and replied simply, "Sure."
