Chapter 14

Emma leaves the office earlier than usual.

Once she reaches home, she isn't much surprised when she finds Ruby and Mulan already at her apartment, waiting for her with a curling iron and at least five different dresses.

"Ruby I thought that key was for emergency purposes only" Emma states, a hint of a smile in her tone.

"Emma, this is an emergency. You're going out with a guy after like a billion years! And he's so hot, and kind, and romantic, and rich, and did I mention hot?" Ruby teases, handing Emma a glass of wine as Mulan explains, "for the first date nerves"

"Alright so do we wanna go with a pink flowing dress to look I don't know, nice and feminine, a navy one which seems a bit business-y just in case you meet someone from the office, or this tight bone crushing classic black dress, or my favorite, this blue dress which is flowy and loose and has no back at all?" Ruby asks with a wide smile on her face.

After about an hour of Mulan and Ruby helping Emma out with her make-up and hair, they sat on the couch talking to Mary Margaret on Skype and nursing the wine bottle they had opened earlier.

Emma went with the blue flowy dress with no back as Ruby argued that she had worn a black one to the club night. She had worn a black coat over her dress without buttoning it up as she was a bit cold, and also didn't want to give Killian that view of her back in front of Ruby and Mulan who were now siting in her living room chatting with Mary Margaret on Skype.

Emma stared at herself in the mirror as she tried to calm her nerves. It's Killian. It's just a date. You were the one who kissed him. It's just a date. Where two people talk. And eat. You've done this many times with Killian really. Just give him a chance.

The doorbell rang and Emma took a deep breath. She could hear Ruby and Mulan exchanging pleasantries with Killian.

Emma entered her living room and took a step back as her jaw dropped. She was almost swooning at the sight of him everyday in his tight fitted suits which gave out a vibe of him being professional and suave. But tonight, he looked nothing short of sexy and dangerous and downright seductive. He was wearing fitted black pants, a dark navy button up shirt and a tight black leather jacket. His hair wasn't gelled up like his usual but was ruffled a bit, a dark strand hanging loosely on his forehead and Emma ached to push it back.

Once Killian recovered from his own admiration of the woman in front of him, he spoke, "You look stunning, Swan". You haven't even seen the back yet Emma thought, smugly.

"You look" Emma paused, searching for the right words. The thought that popped inside her mind to complete the sentence was like I want to rip off your clothes and jump you. But she obviously was not gonna say that. Yet.

"I know" Killian smirked, saving Emma from looking for an appropriate word to describe him.

Killian handed the single red rose he was holding and Emma blushed. Flowers were such an old, gentleman-like tradition that has almost gotten extinct in today's dating world. "Thank you" she mumbled, and Ruby fetched her a vase with water in it.

"You kids have fun!" Mary Margaret's voice interrupted the silence and Mulan brought the laptop to where the couple was standing.

"Hello, m'lady" Killian smiled as he saw Mary Margaret roll her eyes.

"Alright now get out you two" Ruby ordered, slightly pushing Emma, "And oh, Emma, we won't be here when you come back…if you come back"

Emma turned red and glanced at Killian who was scratching behind his ear, fighting hard not to smirk or grin like an idiot. Trying to regain the situation, Emma shot a grinning Ruby a fake angry stare and headed towards the door, knowing that Killian was following her when she felt a hand on her upper back.

For the first time in her life Emma could relate herself to a pre-feminist awakening Taylor Swift song.

Killian had been a complete gentleman as if he came out of some Jane Austen novel. He opened and closed the car door for her, pulled back her chair, and refrained from any physical touch. His gentleman bravado took a slight blow when Emma slipped her coat off and handed it to the server behind her. Once Emma turned around she saw Killian's gaze fixed at the spot that was once her completely bare back and she cleared her throat, causing Killian to smile sheepishly.

The restaurant was small and cozy, completely opposite of what Emma was expecting. Killian was a rich man and rich people usually go to glitzy places where the silverware itself costs a fortune.

The food was marvelous; the best Italian cuisine Emma had ever had and after two glasses of some delicious wine, Emma felt a bit buzzed.

"You have a tattoo, love" Killian said, a statement more than a question, "On your back" he added.

"Got it when I was 18. Neal had just left me and it was my birthday and the tattoo artist told me that flying birds represent freedom so I got it" Emma explained.

"Do you have any other tattoo beside the one on your hand?" Emma asked, Killian's eyes automatically drifting to Milah's name etched on his arm.

"No. Do you?"

"Yes" Emma said, pursing her lips.

"Where?" Killian asked, watching as Emma blushed.

"You're in quite a hurry, huh?" Emma teased, causing Killian to grin as it obviously meant it was in some private area that is not for his eyes yet.

"Birthmarks?" Emma asked.

"Right shoulder" Killian responded.

"Left leg" Emma stated.

"Broke my left arm at 14" Killian said, furthering this inquisitive game they started.

"Fractured leg at 22" Emma answered.

"Rum"

"Wine"

"Liam and now Elsa"

"David, Mary Margaret and recently Ruby"

"I can sail a boat, my yacht basically"

"I have skydived, once"

"Dogs"

"Oh my god, I love dogs" Emma said, "I want a dog now"

"Chandler and Monica"

"Leslie and Ben"

"Peter Pan"

"Tangled"

"Black coffee"

"Tea"

Their little game continued for a long time. Each saying a word and the other answering with their own favorite of the category. It was unusual, but it was fun and at the end of the date, Killian and Emma knew much more that what a first date usually reveals.

Killian touched Emma's elbow making her turn around once they were just outside Emma's apartment door. He wanted to tell her his wish before they took things further, "Love, I was meaning to say this before" Killian hesitated, "I would like to take it slow between us"

Once Emma didn't say anything he continued, "Since Milah, it's only been about sex for me with women but I wouldn't like for us to start like that. You're different Emma and I want to take my time with us" he said, feeling a bit embarrassed as he has never had to say "no" or "wait" for sex to anyone.

Emma laced her fingers through his, "Killian, I understand. Actually I want to as well"

Killian smiled, "You're important to me, Emma. I don't want to screw this up. This, us, I would like to make this work"

"Me too" Emma replied, and she leaned in. Killian unlaced his fingers from hers once he understood her intention and circled her back, his hands warm against her cold bare back. Emma smiled before she slanted her mouth and pressed her lips to his, earning a satisfied hum from Killian. She tugged at his hair harshly when she felt Killian bite her lower lip, and then moaned when she felt his tongue out to soothe the sting. Her hands travelled down from his neck, to his hard stomach and Killian cupped her cheeks and after pressing his lips tight onto hers once, pulled back.

"If we continue this is not going to end up the way we wished it for" Killian panted, Emma feeling his hot breath over her lips.

"Do you wanna come in for some coffee?" Emma asked, "Actual coffee"

Killian snorted lightly, "I would love to"

After a very heated make out session which had led Killian's obvious hardness ending up brushing against Emma's heated center, the two of them had decided to call it a night.

Killian kissed her one last time at her door before he left, smiling as Emma was the one who asked for a second date.

Once he reached home and changed and brushed and checked his e-mails, he felt like even thought it was one of the best days of his life, something was missing. Once it hit him what, he picked up his cell.

"What happened?" Liam's slightly panicked voice came from the other end.

"Oh sod off" Killian rolled his eyes at his brother's dramatics. "What happened to you? You didn't call!"

"Well because I was told by a certain someone that I shouldn't call them" Liam said innocently.

"Like that's ever stopped you before"

"What happened Killian? You don't really ever call for no reason. Unless you're drunk and can't find one of your shoes or something" Liam mumbled, "Tell me quick. Our flight to Australia starts boarding in 15 minutes"

"Liam I….I went on a date. With Emma" Killian blurted, his fingers pressed to his eyes because this was a big fucking deal. Killian hadn't even thought about another woman in a date and romantic sense since Milah.

Liam didn't say anything for a moment. Killian jumped in surprise when he heard Liam scream, "BLOODY FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC FINALLY KILLIAN"

Killian heard Elsa's annoyed tone at Liam's outburst and then Liam spoke, "He went on a date with Emma". Killian grinned when he heard Elsa's squeal of laughter and Liam chanting "finally finally". These two idiots.

"So how did it go?" Liam asked, his grin, the same one as Killian's, evident in his voice.

"It was fantastic. She's bloody brilliant" Killian said, feeling a smile take over his face as he remembered the date. The way Emma blushed when Killian asked about her tattoo, the way she continued to play the one word answer with him, the way she made sure the napkin was settled on her lap, the way she stole a bite of his chocolate brownie when she thought he wasn't looking, the way she talked so passionately about everything, just basically all of Emma Swan.

"I'm happy for you brother; you deserve this" Liam spoke, his tone suddenly serious.

"Thanks Liam" Killian said and after talking to Elsa where she made him promise to keep them both updated on how things work out with Emma, Killian cut the call.

Wanting to talk to Emma again, Killian grabbed his cell. He sighed when he noticed the time, 2:15 a.m. She'd be sleeping. Just text her he thought as he opened iMessage.

I had an amazing time tonight. Thank you, love. Can't wait to see you tomorrow!

He pressed send and after putting back his phone on his side table, he shut his eyes. The bing from his cell made his eyes snap open and he excitedly grabbed his phone. He opened the text message from Swan:

Me too. Can't wait to see you tomorrow either! You owe me a coffee btw cause I had to throw ours out as no one drank it J

Killian grinned remembering why exactly the coffee had gone untouched.

As soon as Emma had placed the cups on her table, Killian had grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him for a kiss. Emma had surprised him when she tugged at the collar of his shirt and settled herself on his lap. It took a gentle sweep of her tongue against his lips and Killian's pants became tighter. Emma had then placed her hands on either side of his shoulders and as she moved a bit higher, her heated center brushed up against his arousal and she moaned in surprise. It was then when they both smiled and decided to call it a night.

I'd buy you as many coffees as you like if you let me kiss you J

Deal.

Deal.

Alright, now it's late. Goodnight!

Goodnight, Swan.

He wanted to keep texting her but it was late. And they had to actually sleep in order to see each other the next day. The last thought Killian had before he let sleep take over him was of Emma.
