10. Usual
The bell tinkled as he opened the door to Granny's, but he barely noticed; he had grown so accustomed to it. "Morning, Killian," Granny said after a brief look up. "The usual?"
He smiled as he took the seat at the counter, the stool he always sat at. "What else would I get?"
Granny couldn't argue with that. She filled the mug with black coffee and placed it before him. A blueberry muffin quickly followed.
"Emma coming too?"
Killian nodded, his mouth full of a piece of muffin. "And Henry," he added after he swallowed.
"Know if he wants french toast or pancakes today?"
"Pancakes."
Not long after, the bell tinkled again. He didn't even bother looking up; he knew who it was.
"Morning." The words came to his ears softly, gently, from a voice he adored. A grin spread across his face; no matter how many times it happened, he couldn't help it.
He turned on his stool to see the familiar face framed by blonde hair. "Morning, Love." She kissed his cheek as she stole a piece of his breakfast. "You do have your own, you know," he reminded her, pointing to the coffee cake muffin that was sitting on a plate beside a mug of steaming hot cocoa, topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. Her usual.
She took her seat on the stool beside him. "I know." Her grin was cocky, her eyes laughing.
"All right then." His eyebrows shot up, amusement all over his face, a plan forming in his mind. "Just you wait, Swan."
Henry rolled his eyes. They always did that fluffy romantic stuff. But he couldn't care much when Granny slid in front of him a plate of pancakes, accompanied by a small pitcher of syrup. "Thanks for ordering, Killian," he said as he drizzled the syrup and began to dig in. He washed down the first few mouthfuls with his own mug of cinnamon topped cocoa.
Emma observed all the food before them. "Thanks," she repeated, bumping her knee against his.
"I hardly did anything," he admitted. "Granny just knows our usual."
Sometimes we all just need a little fluff in our lives :)
