Author's note: Hey guys! I have both good and bad news, the bad one is that we're at chapter thirteen and that there's only 7 chapters left before the end :( The good one is that as I told you, I have ideas for another fiction, still AU, still concerning both of Emma and Killian. I've already written an OS for it, don't know if I should post in now or later, you tell me :p the other part of the good news is that I'm on holidays on Friday, so I'll have time to write and post more often I hope! So, the chapter is mostly based on Killian's past, and next one on Emma's, not going to reveal you more than that for now, hope you'll enjoy it and thanks again for the reviews, follows, favourite and all :D
Disclaimer: I unfortunately don't own anything, characters are the property of those two guys named Edward and Adam…
Chapter 13:
The sunlight came caressing her face gently. She slowly opened her eyes and was pleased to see Killian was still asleep besides her. He looked peaceful, but still on his guards, in case someone would come and get her, his arms firmly wrapped around her waist. He was not going to let her go. Emma was gently stroking his hair, admiring his stunning handsomeness, when he began to wake up, yawning before smiling down at her, kissing her forehead softly.
"Hey beautiful" he said to her.
"Hey. How are you doing?" Emma smiled.
"Awesomely well, thanks to you" he said and his kindness made her blush "Don't blush love" Killian said smiling.
"You too kind with me"
"If you say so lass" he answered and they stood silent for a while. The only thing breaking it was the sound of their breathing and the tweeting of the birds outside the windows.
Emma was a curious. She really was and there was this question that was turning inside of her head that had been troubling her for a while now. And right now, it was messing with her thoughts more than ever. She looked up at Killian and the question left her lips.
"How did you become a pirate?"
"Long Story, sad story, love" he answered in a sigh.
"I have all my time. But I'll understand if you didn't want to talk about it."
"You really want to know?"
"I'd like to. I'm quite curious" she admitted ashamed and he laughed.
"You have the right to know, love" he paused and took a deep breathe "I had a difficult childhood. I've never really known my mother. She left when I was just a kid, because of my father who was the number one drunk man. I grew up on my own, taking care of the man more than I took care of myself. When I was fourteen, my father took me to the docks, in one of his rare moments of lucidity. I was happy that he finally took me out to do something I liked. But, my so-called-father just left me there to my fate. I roamed around for some days, until a man came to me. He had been the Captain of the Jolly Roger for more than a life time and he was old, and looking for someone to take back after him. He saw potential in me. He took me under his care, taught me everything I know about sword fighting, about sailing, and my knowledge about the sea, that's all him 'You're a natural Killian, you were born with the sea in your blood' he used to tell me. He had been the most parental figure I've ever had and when he died, it had been the worst day of my life. I was barely eighteen when I started captaining the Roger. I was a fair captain. A man with a code. The Pirate Code, but still. Until her. Her name was Milah. I fell in love with her, I thought she did too, till the day I discovered she was engaged and that she was using me to get the ship, the fastest ship of the high seas. When she saw I wasn't doing to give it up to her, she left. She left me with nothing but my hate and my anger. I had never played with women before her. She changed me. After that event, I promised myself not to fall in love anymore. And that you came in and turned everything upside down. You and your beautiful hair and face, with those emerald eyes that compelled me. I have to be honest with you, I didn't think about falling in love with you when we met. Just wanted to get you in my bed. But, then again, you changed everything. You brought back the man I was once. And I certainly don't regret falling in love with you" Killian said and kissed her.
"What about Rumplestiltskin?"
"When Milah left, I became the dark and fearsome pirate I'm supposed to be. I did many stupid things, but stealing from him was the stupidest I did. I didn't know what was in when I did. It seems there was the only weapon that could kill him. A dagger. I escaped him for years. Went to Neverland and lost it there I guess. And then, you know the rest of the story" he ended and Emma remained silent for a bit, trying to take it all in. She had no idea he had had such a hard past. His voice cut her off her thoughts "What about you love?"
"What about me?"
"Why did you want to become a pirate?"
"I'm ashamed to tell you about my life after you did"
"Why is that?" Killian asked, curious.
"My past is so sparkly compared to yours. I'm complaining about it, but I realized I may not have had the same strength as you in your place"
"I'm sure you would have"
"I know what you're doing. Not working. I'm not telling you about my oh-so-glowing past" she smiled and Killian arrived at the top of her, his hands firmly wrapped around her wrists, careful not to hurt her.
"Not fair, lass. I told you about mine" he whispered in her ear in a seductive tone that only belonged to him. She wasn't going to be able to handle it. "Trouble breathing love?" he teased, perfectly aware of the effect he had on her. He knew her sensitive spots and he was playing with her sanity.
"Alright" she finally said "I'll tell you, but please. Stop it otherwise I don't know what I'm capable of doing"
"Oh I perfectly know love" Killian kept teasing.
"Killian. If you really want to know, you really got to stop"
"Alright lass. I'm fully yours" Killian smiled kissing her temple.
"I do hope you are" she smirked. "So…"
