“Pardon me, lass. Is that seat taken?”

Emma Swan looked up from the program she had been scanning, to see a man standing in the aisle of the auditorium, looking at her expectantly.

“Excuse me?” she asked.

“I was wondering if you were saving the seat beside you for someone.”

She glanced at the empty seat to her left. “Uh, no. I’m not saving it for anyone.”

After an awkward pause, he asked, “In that case, would you mind if I sit there?”

“Oh, sorry.” She stood up, letting him pass in front of her.

When they were settled in their seats, he said, “Thanks very much.” Holding out his hand, he added, “Killian Jones.”

“Emma Swan,” she responded, shaking his hand. “It’s nice to meet you. I don’t think I’ve seen you around Storybrooke before.”

“I live in Portland. I visit from time to time, and stay at my brother Liam’s house when I do. I’m here to watch his and Elsa’s daughters. They’re the two cutest reindeer.”

“Missy and Alice are your nieces? They’re in my son Henry’s class. In fact, I think he has a crush on one of them.”

“Which one?”

She shrugged. “I’m not sure. They both look alike to me.”

“Well,” he chuckled, “that’s quite common with identical twins.”

She laughed. “You have a point there.”

“Is your son also a reindeer?”

“I wish,” she sighed. “Reindeer are quiet. My son is the little drummer boy. My friend is the music teacher and I’m pretty sure she cast him in that role intentionallly. Her husband has been dying to buy Henry a drum set ever since he was a toddler, but I keep telling him absolutely not. Of course, once my son got the part, he had to practice, so Mary Margaret sent a snare drum home with him. I can hardly wait until this program is over, so I can get that freaking thing out of my house. I love my kid, but he’s driving me crazy with it!”

Killian’s grin stretched wider across his handsome face. “Well, I can assure you that reindeer are not quiet. At least, not in Alice and Missy’s case.”

“I’m sure having two ten-year-olds in the house can be very loud. I only have one and sometimes I swear he’s trying to split my eardrums.”

“With his drum,” Killian smirked.

“You’re hilarious,” Emma groaned sarcastically, rolling her eyes. However, she couldn’t help grinning a little at his attempt to make a joke.

“Are you, uh, are you sure I’m not taking…anyone’s seat?” he asked tentatively.

“If you’re talking about Henry’s father, he won’t be coming. He lives in New York City with his other family. Henry only gets to see him a couple of times a year.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.”

“Don’t be. The less time Henry spends with his dad, the smaller the chance Henry will act like him. After six years, he’s used to taking a back seat to Neal’s other kids.”

She opened the paper she was holding again, scanning the information typed inside. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Killian leaning in slightly to have a look at it, too.

“Didn’t they give you a program at the door?” she asked.

“They were out by the time I got here. I left work as soon as I could, but barely made it. Liam and Elsa weren’t expecting me to come tonight, so they didn’t save a seat for me.”

Emma swiped across her phone to look at the time. “They’re getting started a few minutes late. That’s typical for Mary Margaret because she wants everything to be perfect. She’s probably still gluing cotton balls onto Santa’s beard.” Scooting over in her seat a couple of inches, she held the program between them. “I’ll share with you. Looks like Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer is the next-to-last song.”

Killian perused the offered page. “Your drummer boy looks to be the star of the third song.”

“Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,” she intoned. He chuckled.

The lights dimmed and Mary Margaret hurried onto the stage as the crowd applauded.

“Show time,” Emma commented, then straightened in her seat to listen as her friend welcomed everyone.

*********

Killian shifted in the cushioned chair and tried to focus on what the lovely, pixie-haired teacher was saying. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to pay attention; rather, it was the distraction of the beautiful woman to his right which was occupying his mind. Through no fault of her own, she was making it very difficult for him to concentrate on the acknowledgements of all of the people responsible for helping with the elementary school Christmas pageant.

When she looked up at him after he inquired about the empty seat beside her, he was instantly struck by her beauty. It had been a long time since he gave any woman a second glance. Having his heart broken three years before caused him to swear off of women for good, and he stuck to it.

He may have to rethink that.

Being intrigued by her looks was one thing, but when she began conversing with him, he was struck by how easy it was to talk to her. She was witty and sarcastic, and put him at ease immediately.

When he verified that he wasn’t taking anyone’s seat, it was also his subtle way of asking if she was in a relationship. He had discreetly checked her ring finger and saw it was bare, but wanted further assurance. He was probably assuming too much by thinking her answer about her ex was proof she was indeed single, because she could be dating someone else. But if she was, that man would surely show up to her son’s Christmas pageant, wouldn’t he?

As crazy as it sounded, after knowing her for all of five minutes, Killian was seriously thinking of asking her out.

*********

Emma could feel the nearness of the man beside her and, shockingly enough, she didn’t mind at all. In fact, she actually found herself leaning toward him.

Her friend Elsa mentioned her brother-in-law to Emma several times, but she had never met him or seen a picture of him. If she had, she definitely would have remembered, because the man was ridiculously handsome. She probably seemed like an idiot when he asked about the empty seat beside her and she didn’t tell him he could sit there right away. She was simply gobsmacked when she looked up at him and had trouble getting her mind to work.

Fortunately, once he sat down, words were easier and the conversation she had with him was very enjoyable. She found herself wishing he had gotten there sooner, so they could have had more time to chat before the pageant began. It had been quite a while since she actually wanted more time to talk to a man. Usually, she wanted them to shut up and leave her alone.

Finding someone to date in Storybrooke was not an easy feat. Not that she put much effort into it. After what she went through with Neal, she swore off dating altogether. He not only broke her heart by leaving her for another woman, he told her he never loved her in the first place and the only reason he stayed with her as long as he did was because she was careless enough to get pregnant. He didn’t seem to realize that he had a little something to do with her ending up in that condition, too. She didn’t regret it, though. Henry was the best thing that ever happened to her. She had been telling herself for years that she loved her kid and he was the only male she needed in her life.

How absurd was it for her to want a chance to get better acquainted with Killian Jones so soon after meeting him?

*********

Killian’s whirlpool of thoughts was interrupted when music began playing and the third and fourth grade students trooped onto the stage to stand on the risers, all of them dressed in homemade costumes for their various roles.

Leaning over, he quietly asked, “Which one is Henry?”

Emma pointed. “The one with the jeans chopped off at the knees, white shirt and a vest made out of a cut up paper bag. Real professional, huh? He reminded me last night that he needed a costume, so it’s the best I could do.”

“I think it’s very effective. He’s supposed to be a poor boy, right?”

They fell silent when a little girl dressed as Mrs. Claus stepped to the microphone to introduce the first song. As Killian tried to lay his elbow on the arm rest, he bumped Emma’s, which was already there.

“Sorry, Love,” he whispered, tucking his arm against his side.

“We can share,” she whispered back, scooting her arm over to give him some room. Under normal circumstances, he would have passed on the offer, but he quite liked how it felt to touch her. Once their elbows were both on the arm rest, he turned his attention back to the stage, where the students dressed as elves were lining up to lead the song Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas, while Mary Margaret was taking her seat behind the piano.

“You were right,” Emma muttered. “Your nieces are the cutest reindeer.”

“Of course they are. They take after their uncle,” he cheeked.

Mary Margaret launched into the accompaniment before Emma could reply.

Frosty the Snowman followed, with students dressed as snow people spinning and dancing on the stage. One snowman twirled himself dizzy and almost fell off of the stage. Luckily, David was quick on his feet, catching the little boy and preventing disaster.

“I can guarantee I’ll hear about what a hero he was for days from Mary Margaret,” Emma remarked as they clapped at the end of the song.

“Your boy is up next,” Killian reminded her.

“Oh, yeah,” she said, scrambling to pull her phone out of her purse.

“Would you like me to take the video so you can sit back and enjoy his performance?”

She looked at him. “You wouldn’t mind?”

“Not at all. It would be my pleasure.”

Emma quickly unlocked her phone, pulled up the camera app and set it to video. “You know how to do this, right?”

He chuckled as he took it from her hands. “Don’t worry, Swan. I’m a twenty-first century man, so I do know a fair amount about technology.”

Henry took his place behind the snare drum and smiled widely at his mom. However, once the song started, he was all business, taking his drum solo very seriously. After filming the entire group of students during the first verse, Killian zoomed in on Henry for the rest of the song, capturing his solemn expression as he struck the drum in perfect rhythm.

At the conclusion of the song, Killian turned the phone toward Emma, who was clapping loudly and shouting, “Way to go, kid!” Through the lens, Killian could see the sheen of proud tears in her eyes. He didn’t stop filming until she turned to him to get her device back.

“Thank you,” she said. “I’m glad I could enjoy it without having to watch him through my phone screen.”

“No problem,” he assured her. “He did a wonderful job. He just might have a future as a drummer in a band.”

“I hope he’s out on his own by then if he does. I don’t think I could handle all of the practicing.”

Killian chuckled and settled back in his seat to enjoy the next two songs. When it was time for the reindeer to take their place at the front of the stage, he dug his own phone out of the front pocket of his jeans.

“Here, I’ll return the favor,” Emma said, reaching for the phone. “Enjoy your nieces’ performance.”

“Thanks, Love,” he said gratefully.

The song went well until one of the twins accidentally stepped on the other one’s foot, who then pushed the unwitting culprit. A short shoving match ensued between the two of them, until Mary Margaret snapped her fingers at them with one hand, while continuing to play the piano with the other.

Killian scanned the crowd to find his brother and sister-in-law. Liam was trying, and failing, to keep a grin off of his face, while Elsa scowled ferociously at her rowdy daughters.

The rest of the song went on without further incident. When Emma handed his phone back, Killian remarked, “I think the girls might be in for it after this is over.”

“Yeah, Elsa looks pretty peeved.”

“Do you know her?”

“We got to know each other through the PTO, and we’ve become pretty good friends.”

“PTO?” he questioned.

“Parent-teacher organization. We do fundraisers to give the school and staff extra things the district doesn’t provide. We also sponsor fun events for students and their parents, like skating parties and bingo nights.”

“It sounds very beneficial,” Killian commented.

Mary Margaret announced that the final song was Silent Night and after the students sang it through once, the audience was encouraged to join in.

The children, who had just sung Rudolph loudly and exuberantly, now sang the beloved carol with great reverence. A hush fell over the crowd as they listened to the sweet voices. Killian turned his eyes toward Emma and saw her swallow hard, clearly trying to keep her emotions in check. He was a little emotional himself and he didn’t even have a child on the stage.

Killian added his rich baritone the second time through. He could hear Emma’s voice and wasn’t at all surprised that it was as lovely as the lady herself.

As the final notes faded away, she turned to look at him. He smiled and winked, beginning to clap with the rest of the audience. When the ovation was over, she quickly collected her coat and purse. “I have to go get Henry from his classroom. I…it was nice meeting you, Killian. Maybe we’ll see each other the next time you come to town.”

He looked stunned. “Aye, Swan, perhaps we will.”

With a final wave, she was gone, swallowed up by the crowd.

*********

As he watched her walk away, Killian felt like kicking himself. He just let her go, without asking her out or even requesting her phone number. He was sure he wasn’t the only one who felt the connection between the two of them, but now it was too late to act on it.

She did say she was Elsa’s friend, so perhaps he could get Emma’s information from his sister-in-law. That was less than ideal, but it might be his only option.

He sighed, grabbed his coat from the chair and set off to locate his family.

*********

Emma hated leaving the way she did, but she knew Henry would be waiting for her. Telling her son how proud she was of him, trumped hanging around to talk to Killian some more. She truly hoped she would run into him again, sometime.

She wished she would have been bold enough to ask him for his phone number. Of course, she could always get it from Elsa, but that would mean telling her friend she was interested in her brother-in-law. Emma didn’t really want to open that can of worms.

So as she fought her way through the crowd, disappointment rose up within her because she knew she was leaving behind the first guy who drew her interest in a very long time.

*********

“Where’s Elsa?” Killian asked, once he found Liam still occupying the seat he sat in during the performance.

“She went to get the girls. I offered, but she insisted. She may knock their heads together after their antics on stage.”

Killian laughed. “Never a dull moment with those two, is there?”

“Not a single one. Thanks for coming, brother,” Liam said, standing up to clap Killian on the shoulder.

“I wouldn’t have missed it for the world. I told Missy and Alice I would try to make it and I didn’t want to let them down.”

“You’re a good uncle.”

“The best,” Killian smirked. Then his face took on a serious expression. “May I ask you something?”

“Sure. What’s on your mind?”

“Uh…how well do you know…Emma Swan?”

Liam’s brows raised. “She and Elsa are good friends, so I know her pretty well. Why do you ask?”

Killian scratched behind his ear. “I, um…I sat beside her this evening. I never met her before, but I…she…she seems very nice.”

Liam studied his brother for several moments. “Are you interested in her?” he queried.

His brother shrugged. “I just…we had a good conversation and I thought about…”

When he didn’t continue, Liam supplied, “Asking her out?”

Killian shrugged again. “I know. It’s a stupid idea. I mean, I just met her and we only talked for a few minutes, but…”

Liam stepped in front of him, placing both hands on his brother’s shoulders. “Killian, I know you had a rough go of it with Milah, but you can’t go through life never taking a chance again.”

“Emma probably wouldn’t accept…”

“You won’t know unless you try.”

“It doesn’t matter anyway. She went to collect her son and then they’ll leave.”

“Then we’ll go find her before they do.”

“Liam…”

“Killian, a man unwilling to fight for what he wants, deserves what he gets.”

Killian considered his brother’s words for a few seconds. “You’re right. Let’s go see if she’s still here.”

The pair took off through the nearly empty auditorium. Liam led Killian down one hallway, then nearly ran into Elsa and the girls when they turned the corner.

“There are my lovely ladies,” Liam said, kissing first one of his daughters on the head, then the other. “Good job, my little reindeer.” Seeing the stern look Elsa was giving him, he added, “But perhaps next time you shouldn’t stand right next to each other.”

“It was Missy’s fault,” Alice began, before being cut off by her mother.

“I’ve already talked to you about this,” Elsa reprimanded. “You were both at fault and tomorrow, you will both apologize to Mrs. Nolan.”

“Yes, ma’am,” they chorused. Then they rushed to get a hug from their uncle.

“You came!” Alice cried.

“Told you he would,” Missy said. “Uncle Killy would never let us down, would you?”

“I can’t promise that I never will, but I’ll try my very best not to,” he assured them, one arm wrapped around each twin.

Liam pulled Elsa aside. “Did you see Emma?” he asked.

“Yes, she was picking up Henry at the same time I was getting the girls,” his wife answered. “Why?”

Lowering his voice so their daughters wouldn’t hear, he said, “Killian sat beside her during the performance and they seemed to hit it off. He was hoping to catch her before she left and ask her out.”

Elsa’s expression went from very excited to downcast. “I’m afraid they’re gone already.”

Killian caught what she said and his heart sank. He knew he missed his chance when he let her walk away.

Elsa saw the look on her brother-in-law’s face. “Girls, hug your uncle and tell him goodbye. I’m sure he needs to start back to Portland soon.”

Missy and Alice took turns getting big bear hugs from Killian, then Liam bid him goodbye and took the girls to the car, clearly aware that his wife wanted to talk to his brother alone.

Killian gave Elsa a questioning look. “What do you have up your sleeve?”

“Do you think Emma was attracted to you?”

He shrugged slightly. “I can’t say for sure, but we talked quite a bit and she seemed to like me.”

“The fact that she enjoyed talking to you leads me to believe she does. I love Emma, but she can be a bit prickly. I think you should ask her out.”

“Did you miss the part when you said she already left?”

“I’m going to give you her address, smart guy. Then you can go to her house.”

“Perhaps you should just give me her phone number instead.”

“You will not ask her out over the phone,” Elsa commanded. “That’s too impersonal.”

Killian nodded. “I see your point.” Pulling out his phone, he brought up Google Maps and typed in the address Elsa read from her contacts list. “It’s only a five minute drive.”

“Yes it is, which gives you less time to change your mind.” She gave him a quick hug and kiss on the cheek. “Now get going. Call us when you’re on the way home and let us know what happened.”

“Yes, ma’am,” he said, saluting smartly. When she rolled her eyes at him, he grew serious. “Thank you, Elsa.”

“You’re welcome. Now go turn on your charm.”

*********

Ten minutes later, Killian pulled up in front of the small, unassuming house where the GPS led him. After cutting the engine, he drummed his fingers on the steering wheel, contemplating whether or not he should go through with his plan.

His phone buzzed with an incoming text.

Liam: Remember what I told you. Don’t lose your nerve.

Killian shook his head and snorted out a laugh. Sometimes it was almost scary how well his brother knew him.

“The worst that can happen is she turns me down. I can survive that, right?” he muttered to himself. “Well, I guess we’ll find out.”

He unbuckled his seatbelt, threw open his car door and climbed out. Then he walked up the short sidewalk, lined with lighted plastic candy canes. After knocking on the front door, he nervously brushed one hand through his hair, then tugged at the bottom of his black leather jacket.

The door swung open and he found himself looking down at the little drummer boy, still dressed in his cut off jeans and white shirt, sans the paper bag vest. They looked at each other for a couple of seconds, then Henry turned and yelled, “Mom! Some guy is here!”

“Henry, what have I told you about answering the…” Emma’s words cut off suddenly when she came into view. “Killian?” she questioned disbelievingly.

“Uh, hi. I, um…I hope you don’t mind me stopping by,” he stammered.

She looked flabbergasted. “How did you know where I live?”

“Elsa gave me your address. I hope that was okay.”

Henry looked back and forth between the two adults. “Do you mean Mrs. Jones? Alice’s mom?”

“And Missy’s,” Emma added distractedly.

“How do you know Mrs. Jones?” Henry asked.

“Killian’s brother Liam is Elsa’s husband,” Emma explained. “Henry, please go turn the burner off under the hot cocoa so it won’t burn.”

“If it’s ready, can I pour some…”

“Absolutely not. Do not touch the pan or anything else; just the knob for the burner.”

“But I…”

She put her arm around his shoulders. “After you turn off the stove, why don’t you go ahead and put your pajamas on. Just give me a couple of minutes to speak to Mr. Jones, okay?”

“You did a fine job on your drum solo tonight, lad,” Killian said.

Henry’s face brightened. “Do ya really think so?”

“Aye. You were the star of the show.”

A wide grin split the boy’s face. “Thanks! I practiced a lot!”

“Your mother told me you did. Practice makes perfect, they say.”

“I guess so. We can be in band next year and I want to play percussion.”

Killian snuck a glance at Emma, who closed her eyes and shook her head slightly. With difficulty, he kept from laughing, before answering, “I’m sure you’ll enjoy that.”

“At least one of us will,” Emma mumbled, before reminding Henry about turning off the stove.

“Bye, Mr. Jones. Merry Christmas!” Henry shouted on his way out of the room.

“Merry Christmas to you, lad.”

“So, um, not to sound rude, but why are you here?” Emma asked as soon as they were alone.

He tried not to fidget as he thought of what to say. “I…I really enjoyed talking to you this evening.”

“I enjoyed talking to you, too.”

Encouraged, the corner of his mouth quirked up. “That’s good to hear. So, I was wondering if…if you would consider going out with me.”

“On a date?” she asked, brows shooting up.

“Aye, that’s the idea.”

“I can’t…”

Killian felt his stomach drop.

“...even remember the last time I went on a date.”

“Perhaps we should remedy that,” he suggested hopefully.

Emma pulled her bottom lip between her teeth, chewing on it in contemplation. “I don’t know…”

“Go out with him, Mom!” Henry yelled from the kitchen.

“Really, kid?” Emma said, clearly exasperated.

Henry poked his head around the door frame. “I like him.”

“Weren’t you told to put your pajamas on?”

“I will. I just accidentally heard what Mr. Jones said.”

Emma crossed her arms and gave him a patented ‘mom look’. “Accidentally, huh?”

He shrugged. “I have good hearing.”

“Only when you want to have it,” she stated. “Now, go do as you were told.”

“Okay,” he sighed, trudging down the hallway to his room.

She turned back to Killian, dropping her arms to her sides. “Looks like you have my kid’s approval.”

He studied her for a few seconds. “What about you, Emma? Do I have your approval, too? Elsa said she would be happy to watch Henry for you if we go out.”

She hesitated, then lifted her chin decisively. “Yes, Killian. I would love to go out with you.”

*********

One year later…

Killian followed Emma down the aisle of the auditorium and grinned when he realized what seats she chose. After sitting down, he draped his arm around her shoulders and leaned over to murmur in her ear, “These seats seem familiar, Love.”

She snuggled against his side. “They’re very special, because this is where I met the love of my life.”

“What a coincidence,” he teased. “This is where I met mine, too.”

Elsa and Liam slid into the seats in front of them. “Hello, lovebirds,” Elsa grinned.

“Don’t encourage them,” Liam cautioned. “I already have to witness far too much PDA from those two.”

“You don’t have to watch, you know,” Killian said, lightly whacking the back of Liam’s head.

“Both of you behave,” Elsa said, as Emma giggled.

“Speaking of behaving,” Killian began, “do you think your daughters will make it through the concert without assaulting each other this year?”

“I wouldn’t bet on it,” Liam said. “I caught Missy trying to hit her sister over the head with her flute the other day.”

“Be happy it wasn’t the other way around,” Emma commented. “Alice could do some serious damage with her saxophone.”

They were still laughing when the fifth grade band shuffled onto the stage in all their Christmas finery, instruments held proudly in front of them. Emma and Killian immediately spotted Henry taking his place behind the snare drum. He smiled and gave them a quick wave before picking up his drumsticks.

“He looks so grown up,” Emma said quietly.

“Your little drummer boy isn’t very little anymore,” Killian observed fondly. He and Henry had a very close relationship and he loved the boy as his own.

“A lot has changed in the past year,” she sighed happily.

“Aye, Love. It’s been phenomenal in every way.”

Mary Margaret, who also instructed the fifth grade band along with teaching elementary music, walked out onto the stage, preparing to introduce their first song.

Emma settled against Killian’s side to enjoy the concert. A year ago, sitting in these very seats, neither of them could ever have imagined what that first meeting would mean to them.

As the band began playing Jingle Bells, Killian pulled Emma a little closer. His chest swelled with pride watching Henry concentrating on his music, as he beat out the rhythm on the drum. This year, Emma hadn’t had to endure his incessant practicing alone, since Killian moved in with them just before Thanksgiving.

Emma saw Killian glancing at his watch once the third and final song ended. “Are you anxious to leave? You know we still have to sit through the sixth grade and junior high bands, don’t you?”

He rubbed the back of his neck. “I’m aware. I was just trying to gauge what time it will be over.”

“I’d say the concert will last about an hour,” Liam threw over his shoulder.

Killian slumped a bit in his chair. Then he caught sight of Henry, who was sitting in a reserved section to their right with the rest of the fifth grade band. The boy beamed at him and gave him a thumbs up. Killian winked and returned his smile.

Last year, the evening of Henry’s concert ended with Killian asking Emma out on their first date. This year, he had a different question to ask when they got home, one for which Henry had already given his approval.

He hoped her answer would be the same as last year. If so, they would be sitting in these seats next year as husband and wife.

Kissing her temple, Killian impatiently waited for the sixth grade band to begin playing. He intertwined their fingers, imagining how her hand would look with the diamond engagement ring on it. When she turned her face up to look at him, love shining in her eyes, he knew the beauty of the diamond would pale in comparison to the lady wearing it.

*********

Liam’s estimate for the length of the concert was right on the nose. When they finally walked out of the auditorium, light snow was falling. The conversation in the car on the way home was warm and playful. Henry laughed about the sixth grade percussionist who dropped one of the cymbals in the middle of a song, and expressed his hope that when he got older, he would be the one to make the whip sound for Sleigh Ride.

“Lord, help us through seven more years of band,” Emma murmured under her breath, causing Killian to laugh, despite the nerves that were knotting his stomach.

As soon as they got home, Henry went into the kitchen to get the ingredients out for hot cocoa, dubbing it a tradition after the Christmas concert.

“Is it a tradition if this is only the second time we did it?” Emma asked.

“I don’t know,” Killian answered, “but I do know of another tradition that’s been around much longer.” He pointed at the top of the doorway between the living room and kitchen.

“When did you put mistletoe up there?” she asked, wrapping her arms around his neck.

“This evening while you were getting dressed for the concert.”

“You’re very sneaky,” she said, leaning in until her lips were just a fraction of an inch away from his.

“And you love me for it,” he grinned.

“Mmhmm,” she hummed before kissing him.

“Pre-teen boy coming through,” Henry announced, squeezing past them. “I’m going to put my pajamas on. Please be done making out by the time I get back.”

Emma and Killian laughed into their kiss. “I think we’re scarring him for life,” he quipped.

“That’s what parents are for,” she replied.

Killian pulled back to look at her. “You consider me to be his parent?”

“You’re more of a father to him than Neal has ever been.”

He surged forward to kiss her again. When it finally ended, he asked, “Do you think Henry regards me that way, too?”

“I’m sure he does.”

“Does what?” Henry asked, re-entering the room, now dressed in plaid Christmas pajamas.

“Do you think of Killian as one of your parents?” Emma asked.

“Well, duh,” he stated matter-of-factly. “Can we make hot chocolate now?”

Emma tried to give Killian a look that said I told you so, but he was gazing at Henry with a sense of wonder over the boy’s declaration.

Once the cocoa was gone and Henry was off to bed, Killian and Emma lay together on the sofa. The living room was lit only by the gas fireplace and the lights from the Christmas tree, while Christmas music played softly.

“This is nice,” she sighed.

He hummed in agreement, stroking his hand up and down her back. His thoughts were preoccupied with the perfect way to propose, so he almost missed what she said next.

“Marry me, Killian.”

His hand on her back stilled as his mind registered what she just said. “Wh-what?”

She pushed up on her elbows to look into his face. “Marry me.”

“Swan, you’re depriving me of a dashing proposal!” he protested.

She cocked her head, studying him. “Are you serious?”

He slid out from under her to kneel on the floor in front of the couch, reaching into the pocket of his sleep pants to retrieve the ring and holding it up for her to see.

Her eyes widened as she swung her feet down to the floor. “Oh. My. God. You really were going to propose, weren’t you?”

“Aye.”

“Are you mad at me?”

“Mad? Why would I be mad? Since you asked me first, I’m pretty sure I know what your answer is going to be,” he chuckled.

“You still have to ask. That’s the rule.”

“Whose rule?”

“Mine. Now, let’s hear that dashing proposal.”

He grinned, then cleared his throat. “Emma, you and Henry have changed my life in every way possible. I never knew happiness like this even existed, let alone that it would happen to me. There aren’t enough words in this world to express how much I love you, but right now, there’s only one word I need to hear in response to this question - Emma Swan, will you marry me?”

Tears filled her eyes when she opened her mouth to answer, but emotion clogged her throat, so she nodded emphatically and threw her arms around him. As he held her tight, kissing her and murmuring words of love, she finally found her voice. “Yes, Killian, I will marry you! I love you so much!”

She pulled away, wiping at her eyes. “Henry and I are very lucky to have you in our lives. I know I’m speaking for him too when I say we want you to be part of our family forever.” Framing his face with her hands, she leaned in to kiss him again.

“Do you want the ring?” he asked against her lips.

She giggled and sat back, extending her left hand to him. He slid the ring into place and kissed her knuckle above it.

“It’s perfect,” she breathed.

“You are perfect, my love.”

“Says the man who complains when I leave wet towels on the floor,” she teased.

“Well…nearly perfect,” he grinned.

She held her hand up to admire the ring, the lights of the Christmas tree making the diamond glitter. “We’re engaged,” she said, awestruck.

“Mmhmm. Who would have thought that a little drummer boy and two feuding reindeer would bring us together and give us a happy ending?”

Her eyes met his, laughter and love dancing in them. “Best night of my life, hands down. Until today,” she amended.

Kissing the tip of her nose, he whispered, “Happy Christmas, wife-to-be.”

“Merry Christmas, husband-to-be.”

He stood up and took her hand to help her to her feet. Then they went to their bedroom to share the best gift of all - the love they had for each other.

My heartfelt wishes for all of you to have a blessed and memorable Christmas!

[howtosurvivebeingsingle]

It's been a while and since beginning this blog, I happened to go on hiatus shortly afterward. I have lived with my folks since childhood and had only just moved out last October. Seeing as my lease end was coming up soon among many other life changes, it became rather hard to blog. I moved from my first apartment and had gone through two roommates in the process making me realize that perhaps living alone wasn't so bad. Despite the glorious pocket change I accumulated from paying half the rent, things weren't all that good around my friends. There were certain things that one misunderstands upon living with friends. Hidden secrets that are best left far, far away from you pertaining to housekeeping that I wish I had never learned. In summary, we're eating takeout when I go to visit.

There was also the issue of the neighbors, if you follow my other social media accounts, you'll understand why and I am grateful that I now live upstairs so those "noises" will no longer be above my head. My new apartment has neighbors that are noisy here too as you will find in many places alike, but your regular stomping and door slamming compared to the weekend marathon of 10 seconds as we named him. My only wish is for a pantry as these units were previously dorms, so they're small and inexpensive, the area is relatively quiet. I did manage to buy a small shelving unit to place on my counter that separates the living from the kitchen. My next purchase will be glass containers to give a chic look to my dried goods. I have some gold wire baskets that will give a pop of color and compliment it well. Moved uptown recently and the lack of gas mileage is quite the pro in my defense. I had spent nearly $100 a month driving to and from work since it was square on the other side of town. Seeing as I prefer to cook meals, the budget expense for takeout wouldn't be a problem. Saving money is always a plus.

That being said, I'll have to pinch every penny if I want to buy Christmas presents. My family does an annual Secret Santa Giveaway to make things easier on everyone. The amount of guests for the holidays seems to multiply yearly and buying a gift per guest can be quite the hassle. My family isn't the largest per se, but since my sister's new boyfriend has a rather large family, the amount of chair space will have to be a vast one this time. There is no budget since the members are family, friends and significant others. It is nearly Mid November as you all know and the moving expenses are settling in, so there is a chance that I will focus less on finishing my apartment layout and side projects so that I can afford not only gifts, but travel expenses. The years seem to be getting worse as they progress, so here's to hoping that the dawn of 2022 will be the end of it. Let's hope this trail of bad luck will bring a little bit of good luck in the romance department. Kind of crazy that my star sign is ruled by Venus and my luck on love hasn't been all that great.

Still there is hope for a better year and a less lonely valentines for me and my friends even though some of us aren't in good terms as of late. For now I will promise more frequent updates and as we ease into the holiday season, I'll sit back and relax with a cup of cocoa with wine and some holiday films to watch in my new living space. I'll leave you with some of my picks below. A good portion of these are animated, but we're all children about this time of year so cheers, and Much Love Your Way Darlings!

[guessmonsta]

BITCH IM BACK AND READY FOR CHRISTMAS Starting out with some headcanons?? So tell me what you think ur fave boys fave Christmas songs are because I love ur playlists that you made I still listen to them lmao

I’M BACK IT’S MY FAVORITE SEASON I’M IN A CAFE WITH A LARGE SUGAR COOKIE HOT COCOA ITS SNOWING + I’M LIVING (Also why just my favorites when I can do them all??? Same thing???)

Daichi Sawamura: Last Christmas - George Michael

This was the only song his mother used to play around Christmas time when he was younger, so it’s stuck with him throughout the years. He remembers making lots of jokes about the lyrics when he was younger, but finds it to be charming, now. 

Sugawara Koushi: Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - Frank Sinatra

He absolutely loves this song, and he has no idea why. Sometimes, he’ll find himself listening to it in July, just because he can. It makes him want to steal a glass of expensive red wine off of his parents alcohol table and drink it out on the balcony on Christmas Eve, which he has done, by the way. 

Asahi Azumane: N/A 

Surprisingly, he’s the only one on the list that actually doesn’t like Christmas. It’s not because he hates joy, and it’s not because of the fact that both his parents are Buddhist, but he hates it because every year before winter break, Sugawara has the stupid idea to dress him up as Jesus and crucify him to the volleyball net. He does it willingly, but that doesn’t mean that he technically enjoys it. 

Nishinoya Yuu: Carol of the Bells - Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Thing is, he actually doesn’t know what the song is even called. When asked what his favorite Christmas song is, he resorts to just aggressively humming. Because he doesn’t know the name, and none of his friends know what he’s doing, he has no clue how to find the song and actually listen to it. 

Tanaka Ryuunosuke: Rocking Around The Christmas Tree - Trap Remix 

He isn’t a fan of the way old music sounds, and that’s what Christmas music is built off, essentially. But when Nishinoya showed him this song at practice one day, he found it to be absolutely hysterical. Truth be told, he probably enjoys it more for the meme than he does the actual musical value. 

Kageyama Tobio: N/A 

Christmas was always viewed as a solely romantic holiday in his household, and with his parents always being off at their respective jobs and ignoring the holiday as a whole, for a long time, Kageyama forgot it even existed. The only Christmas song he really knows of is Jingle Bells. 

Hinata Shouyou: The Chipmunk Song - Alvin and the Chipmunks

His adoration of this song came from something like a Stockholm Syndrome. Natsu has a small, Christmas tree ornament that plays the song on repeat for however many times you crank the dial, and she adores it. So, from the moment she wakes up, to the moment she goes to bed, the entire house is filled with the cursed song. Hinata has considered, on multiple occasions, throwing it out his bedroom window or breaking it with a hammer, but like most things, Hinata warmed up to it eventually, whether he actually wanted to or not. 

Tsukishima Kei: Little Drummer Boy, Peace On Earth - Bing Crosby and David Bowie

He has a really specific, pretentious music taste, and like hell he’s letting it falter, even during the holidays. He’s not even sure if he likes it because it’s a good song, or because David Bowie is one of the singers. 

Yamaguchi Tadashi: Oh Holy Night - Bastille 

Sure, he’s a fan of the original, choir version of this song, but he much prefers an indie/alternative twist on it. Although the song talks about Christmas in a more religious way, he doesn’t really understand the lyrics all that much, but likes the way that it’s sung, regardless.

Oikawa Tooru: Baby it’s Cold Outside 

He’s aware that the lyrics are a bit unacceptable for today’s society, but nothing is stopping him from wanting to sing a duet to this song with literally anyone. He’s too nervous to ask, and even then he’s sure none of his friends would comply, so he ends up singing, (more like vomiting) both parts of the song on his car ride to and from school. 

Iwaizumi Hajime: N/A

He never really celebrated Christmas as a kid, his mother being Muslim and not really knowing much about it herself, so he was kind of sheltered from the whole idea of it all. Even though he doesn’t know much, every Christmas Eve he’ll buy some beautifully decorated sugar cookies for him and his mom, because even if they don’t celebrate the holiday, the cookies are to die for. 

Bokuto Koutarou: Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer

Well, it’s not necessarily his favorite, but every year when his family gets together for the holidays, it’s the only song his younger cousins tend to sing, so it inevitably gets stuck in his head. Not that he minds, really, the kids crack up when he chimes in to sing the silly words in between each verse of the song. 

Akaashi Keiji: Anything by Frank Sinatra 

He knows that not all Frank Sinatra songs are Christmas related, but he’s not very big on Christmas, either. He likes the classy vibe his music gives off, it reminds him of city streets lined with snow and the warmth of speakeasy cafes.  

Kuroo Tetsurou: N/A 

If you were to ask Kuroo what he thinks about Christmas, he would tell you that it used to be a holiday meant for worshiping Jesus Christ, a religious figure. But now, a bunch of Asian kids who’s ancestors fought off Christian mercenaries in the 15th century, and who know nothing about Christianity themselves, are crying about wanting gifts and things for a Christian holiday. He doesn’t hate the holiday, really, but his “favorite song” is making Capitalist jokes all month. “Merry Capitalism! Shoot! I meant Happy Consumerism! Nope, that’s not it either!”

Kenma Kozume: N/A 

He probably can’t even name one Christmas song, except maybe, “that one about the snowman who smokes.” He’s only into Christmas because he’s a fan of Starbucks’ seasonal drinks, to be honest. (The Snickerdoodle hot cocoa is his favorite!)

Lev Haiba: Sleigh Ride - Amy Grant 

He’s another one who isn’t really sure why he enjoys the song, he just does. His family doesn’t even celebrate the holiday- his mother being Russian and celebrating The Epiphany instead of Christmas. He still thinks Christmas is cute, though, and probably buys his friends those fifty-cent candy canes that the school issues before breaks begins. 

Ushijima Wakatoshi: N/A 

His family was never really big on Christmas– his mother is very Buddhist, and his father lives across the ocean, so he’s never really been exposed to the traditions. Although, he finds that The Trans Siberian Orchestra’s rendition of Carol of the Bells gets stuck in his head around December every year, but isn’t really aware that it’s a Christmas song. 

Tendou Satori: Little Drummer Boy, Peace On Earth - Bing Crosby and David Bowie

Along with Queen, David Bowie is another one of his absolute favorite artists, so there’s no way he couldn’t stan this song. He gets really offended when his friends tell him they’ve never herd of it before. 

Semi Eita: Yule Shoot Your Eye Out - Fall Out Boy

He’s secretly, not so secretly, still an emo edge lord, so for the entire month of December, he has this song on repeat. Some other honorable mentions for him are Merry Christmas, Kiss My Ass, by All Time Low and My Chemical Romances rendition of All I Want For Christmas Is You.

Stranded with Mr. Snow

Stranded with Mr. Snow #Romance #Christmas #Love #Holiday

Part 5 They started with Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer snuggled under a thick corded blanket sitting on opposite sides of the couch with Clover resting in her bed near the tree and the fireplace ablaze sipping on a fresh batch of hot cocoa. The bowl of buttery popcorn that claimed the spot between Savoy and Hudson quickly emptied once they started watching The Little Drummer Boy. Once Hudson’s…

Christmas Movies and TV Specials: Full 2020 Schedule

https://ift.tt/3oRiKSi

Every year, the cheer of the holiday season at the end of the calendar is the reward for us good boys and girls who behaved ourselves for 11 grueling months. Never, however, has the reward of the holiday season felt more earned than in 2020.

There’s no way around it – amid worldwide pandemics, contentious political campaigns, and the cancellation of everything on Netflix – we’ve had a bit of a rough time. Thankfully, November and December marks the unofficial beginning of the holiday season on the entertainment calendar and we’re here to make sure you don’t miss a minute of any of it. 

Using network schedules, we’ve cobbled together all of the holiday movies and TV specials we could find. Be sure to chime in with anything we may have missed as we will be updating as the season moves along.

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

With social distancing guidelines in place, the holiday season might be just as weird as the rest of the year. But with this schedule in place, hopefully the entertainment world can provide a bit of normalcy. Check it out below!

Lovesickness (Prologue)

A/U: It’s finally up! Let #24hours proudly presents a multi-chaptered fanfic Lovesickness to y’all! Darky, you wanna say something? -Sun

To my Tumblr followers. Ohoho, welcome to my AO3 account. Please don't kill me on my past writings. Don't kill us, but y'all in for a bumpy ride! I will be updating the tags on AO3 as I post a new chapter. Love you guys! -Darky

AO3 Link (x)

Co-Author: @darkness-anon

Word Count: 1159

Pairing: Prinxiety. One-sided Logicality. One-sided Analogical.

Trigger Warnings: Abuse. Bruises. Alcohol. Verbal Abuse. Angst. 

Morality carries the last dish to the table, humming happily when he sees his family and crush sitting at the table and talking politely and joyfully. He sets the turkey down at the center of the table and smiles at the praise he got from everyone. It was a wonderful Christmas, the perfect ending to a good year. The perfect step to the next year. The room is filled with different Christmas decorations. All they can see is an ocean of red, green and white. The tall Christmas tree in the corner of the room shines fairy lights. ‘Little Drummer Boy’ is playing quietly and calmly in the background, adding to this perfect celebration.

“Those lyrics make no frankincense! Hohohohoho!” Morality’s pun and his laugh break the peaceful atmosphere of the house.

They all groan, Anxiety going so far as to bang his head on the table.

“Guys, I just sleigh myself!” He sits down next to Logic, using his grin to hide his blush. He reaches over and pats Anxiety’s back “Just ribbon ya, kiddo!” Anxiety grumbles into the tablecloth, hiding his smile against the hard surface.

“What did you say, Anxiety” Morality speaks with a wide grin “I can holly hear you!”

Logan turns his head to Morality and rolls his eyes. He adjusts his ties and retorts, “Shut up, Morality. You have a bad range of jokes.”

The father bursts into laughter “Look at Logan getting figgy with it!” He laughs louder when everyone groans again “Well, I guess that about wraps things up!" He spoke with a soft smile “Roman, would you like to carve the turkey?”

The royal nods and pulls out his sword to cut the turkey up, ignoring the squawks of protest from various members and the sound of glee from Morality.

Roman slices a piece of turkey and serves it to Anxiety’s plate. “Try it, my chemically imbalanced romance.” Maybe it’s the candlelight, but the darker boy sees Roman’s face turning red.

His chemically imbalanced romance? He thinks. When am I his? Anxiety feels his face burning up. He buries his face into the plate to hide it, then mumbles a “thank you” through his mouthful of food.

The prince looks at Anxiety’s moving head and his soft hair. His hand uncontrollably goes to Anxiety and ruffles his hair. He blushes madly when he realizes what he just did and quickly pulls his hand back.

Anxiety raises a brow and smirked, “What, Mr. Daydream?” He scoops a spoonful of food and shoves it into Roman’s mouth playfully. Morality shakes his head and laughs.

Logan watches the interaction and feels a strange emotion. He’s not sure what it is, maybe jealousy? Either way, he didn’t like the interaction Roman was having with Anxiety. Anxiety shouldn’t be smiling at Roman, it should be him that he feeds and blush at. He looks down at his plate and picks at it, trying to understand what he was feeling.

Morality watches Logan with concern, hoping that he’s okay. He notices how tense he seemed and not sure what was going on. He looks up and sees Anxiety and Roman give him a questioning look, mindlessly talking about something to keep the noise going. Morality shrugs and jumps at a sudden clang. He looks back and sees that Logan dropped his fork, making the room silent

“You okay there, Lo?” He asked gently.

“Fine, I am going to get another fork Patton.” He pushes back his chair and stalks towards the kitchen. The other can hear him yank the drawer harshly and randomly grabbing a fork and slamming it shut, making the three flinch.

Morality rubs a dark bruise that was hidden by his Christmas sweater and turns the music up a bit, trying to drown out the negativity with ‘Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer’ and reaches out to grab some mashed potatoes, quickly yanking his sleeve down when it rides up to show the finger-shaped bruise, hoping no one seen it. Or that no one notices him using his right hand instead.

Anxiety peeks at Morality through his fringe, then quickly looks back to his plate and swallows his words down. Roman frowns and questions, “What-”

The darker boy quickly shoves another piece of turkey into Roman’s mouth, glaring at the prince and wondering how much more impulsive and ignorant he can get. He rolls his eyes at Roman’s confused expression.“Eat your food, Disney reject.”

Roman feigns a grin on his face, pretending that he didn’t see the dark bruise on Patton’s wrist. He silently slices pieces of turkey down, afraid to break this fragile peace in the house. Logan walks back into the room, a glass of wine in hand and a new fork in the other. He sets them both down and starts to eat again, ignoring the tense air around the four.

“So! How is the food? I tried a new recipe for the turkey, hopefully, it wasn’t dry?” Morality tried to restart the talking and to break the tension.

“It was de-” Roman started

“It is dry. The gravy barely saves it. But the taste is...acceptable. Next time, do not use a new recipe when the old one is better” as Logan spoke, Morality sags and curls into himself, Anxiety glares daggers at Logan and Roman stares in shock at the intellectual trait.

“Well I think it was perfect, Mo. You should do it next time we have turkey, okay?” Anxiety spoke up, glaring at Logan before taking another bite of said turkey.

Morality looks at him through his eyelashes, a bit hopeful “Are you sure? I don’t wanna ruin another holiday. Maybe I shouldn’t have cooked it as long?”

Roman nods “It is a bit dry, but the taste was exquisite. Th-” Morality doesn’t hear the rest of what Roman says when he feels a hand tighten around his wrist, putting another bruise around his other wrist before letting go and standing up, pushing the chair away and storms out of the room.

The three of them watch him walk away, one noticing the two bottles of wine in his hand, another noticing his angry stance, the last noticing that he didn’t bring a glass. Morality rubs his newly bruised wrist under the table and looks at the others.

“He’s just tired. Let’s finish dinner and have some dessert and turn in so that Christmas will come faster and we can open presents” He’s oozing false cheer, fake and over the top. The others can see right through it, but nods and returns to their plates.

The three all hope that this year will be better, Logan will be calmer, there will be less bruises and they can express true happiness around Thomas.

Morality looks up from his plate and down the hall where Logan went and hoped that they’ll be back to the way things were in the beginning, maybe with...some romance between the four.

Christmas Movies and TV Specials: Full 2020 Schedule

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Every year, the cheer of the holiday season at the end of the calendar is the reward for us good boys and girls who behaved ourselves for 11 grueling months. Never, however, has the reward of the holiday season felt more earned than in 2020.

There’s no way around it – amid worldwide pandemics, contentious political campaigns, and the cancellation of everything on Netflix – we’ve had a bit of a rough time. Thankfully, November and December marks the unofficial beginning of the holiday season on the entertainment calendar and we’re here to make sure you don’t miss a minute of any of it. 

Using network schedules, we’ve cobbled together all of the holiday movies and TV specials we could find. Be sure to chime in with anything we may have missed as we will be updating as the season moves along.

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

With social distancing guidelines in place, the holiday season might be just as weird as the rest of the year. But with this schedule in place, hopefully the entertainment world can provide a bit of normalcy. Check it out below!

All times are EST.
