Chapter 1: The Wedding

~~EPOV

Emma stares at her reflection in the full-length mirror. She looks at the image she makes today, dressed in the most modest white wedding dress she has ever seen. It's plain and simple, nothing exquisite or extravagant about it, nothing like the dress that she had always dreamt of when she was a young girl.

Once upon a time, the day she'd been promised a betrothal to August, she'd envisioned such a dress. Unfortunately, she will not be marrying August, the man she loves, as she must protect him and her family's honor.

This is my duty, is all she keeps telling herself. She knows it is crazy, but she still longs for August, even though he chose another. Tears slowly fall and it makes her more determined to conclude this transaction because essentially, that is all it is - a business deal.

A soft knock raps lightly at the door and Mother Superior's voice sounds softly. "Emma, it is time. They are ready for you."

Emma slowly walks to open the door and closes her eyes desperately hoping for a sign that she doesn't need to go through with it, alas nothing happens. She has no choice, so she slowly covers her face with the sheer material her veil is made of. This is her final moment of freedom.

She can faintly hear the wedding march playing on the other side of the tall twin doors. Suddenly the doors open and she starts her walk down the aisle. She holds her head high and the voices fade into the back of her mind by the time she reaches the altar.

The priest starts reciting the exchange of vows consent.

"Emma and Killian, have you come here freely and without reservation, to give yourselves to each other in marriage?" They both answer in unison, "Yes." The priest continues, "Will you honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?" They answer, "Yes." "Will you accept children lovingly from God, and bring them up according to the law of Christ and his Church?" The answer is prompt, "Yes."

"Since it is your intention to enter into marriage, join your right hands, and declare your consent before God and his Church." They heed the priest's words. Killian looks at Emma and says his vows.

"I, Killian, take you, Emma, to be my wife. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life. "

Emma takes a breath and starts her vows in reply. "I, Emma, take you, Killian, to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life."

They follow the traditional vows with the Blessing of Rings and a kiss that seals their union. Although this is not their first kiss, Emma has never experienced a kiss like this one before, a kiss tinged with the promise of something more. Quickly composing herself, Emma puts that thought in the back of her mind. Suddenly everything is a whirlwind around her and the next thing she remembers is finding herself in a carriage with her husband, headed to an unknown destination.

Not long ago she was ready to make vows of a different variety. Losing her love had broken her heart. She couldn't bare living under the same roof as the happy couple. She tried not to let it show that she was hopelessly in love with her cousin's husband. She knew love would never find her, so the only choice was the convent.

But now, so many changes have happened so fast. This marriage is the only choice she's decided for herself, no one can take this from her. Never again will Emma find herself at the mercy of others.

That lovely chapel in the convent had been her haven for a short time, but now a new endeavor is upon her. Emma looks at her husband and hopes that God will forgive them for a marriage that was not entered in the name of love. They had lied through their teeth to the priest.

She had felt the guilt right away, but the alternative is not an option.

~~KPOV

Killian Jones always considered himself a patient man, but right now that ability to wait is nowhere to be seen. He feels powerless and he hates that feeling. Killian looks toward the doors, willing his bride-to-be to finally show herself. For a few seconds, he fears Emma has betrayed him.

He looks around the chapel. There are no loved ones here to show support on either side, just some novices and a few of the older nuns. He has no family in town left alive, only a longtime friend that refused to show because he does not agree with this marriage.

When he finally hears the music begin to play, Killian takes a breath and tries to form a smile. He looks to the opening doors and finds himself entranced by the woman slowly making her way to him. He is not a blind man, she is beautiful, but sadly she is not the woman deeply embedded in his heart. But he will have his happy ending and it does not matter what needs to be done or how long it takes for him to get it.

The priest starts reciting the exchange of vows consent.

"Emma and Killian, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourselves to each other in marriage?" They both answer in unison, "Yes." the priest continues, "Will you honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?" They answer, "Yes." "Will you accept children lovingly from God, and bring them up according to the law of Christ and his Church?" The answer is prompt, "Yes."

"I, Killian, take you, Emma, to be my wife. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life. "

Emma takes a breath and starts her vows in reply. "I, Emma, take you, Killian, to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life."

They follow the traditional vows with the Blessing of Rings and a hope-filled kiss that seals their union. It is a first kiss that holds so much promise for both Killian and Emma, they are unknowingly courting danger as neither suspects true love could soon be in the cards for them.

Not long after the ceremony, the newlyweds find themselves in a carriage headed home.

Killian can see the guilt all over his wife's face. He didn't know how it was possible to be able to see her truly. Yes, he knows his way around women, but with Emma, it is something entirely different.

"Darling, we will arrive soon to our new home," Killian says, and their eyes meet and time stands still for a brief second.

“Killian Jones. But most people have taken to calling me by my more colourful moniker - Hook.”

I had the plot twist of my life this weekend when in a shocking turn of events I got to take a last minute trip to meet Colin O’Donoghue. I spent the day before feverishly drawing a Hook portrait to match the Emma one JMo signed years ago, and this is the result! (I’ll post the side by side when I finish painting the frames and have them hung)

Please do not repost or remove caption :)

Do you ever think about how the first thing Hook said to Emma after almost drowning was “Actually, I quite fancy you from time to time - when you’re not yelling at me.” Like baby boy just saw his heart sinking lifeless to the bottom of the Neverland sea and the relief of her being okay and alive has him teetering on the edge of walls he has built up, ready to jump and fall irrevocably in love. He just spits it out before his better judgement can stop him, before he can talk himself out of it. He says it like a meaningless flirtation but it’s Freudian slip, and you can see in Emma’s eyes she knows it’s true. And that’s when he starts following her around the island and making moments to spend with her and pining and yearning and there’s no going back. All because she almost died and that’s so he can think about so the words just tumble out.

“baking cookies”

A Captain Swan Holiday fic for @cocohook38 as part of @cssecretsanta2020

“I still don’t understand why we can’t simply go to the store and buy a package of cookies,” he comments, the lilt to his accent like music to Emma’s ears.  “It would save us a whole lot of trouble, and we’d have time for other things.”  The way he cocks his head to the side somehow makes him even more attractive than he normally is, or maybe it’s the glass of wine she’s already consumed thus far this evening.

or: Emma and Killian try to make cookies for Granny's holiday party... "try" being the key word.

Check for the link in the notes!

I just want to say I am LOVING the wip ask game that’s going around right now. All of the little snippets and peaks at title names have been fantastic little doses of imagination!

[captainswanmoviemarathon]

Hello all! I know we still have fics updating and other events. I was wondering if anyone would want to participate on a new wave of CSMM or just do the event all year?

I mean if you write a fic based/inspired by a movie you tag us and we reblog or like we did last year?

I know last year was a horrible year and it affected our real life’s so much.

We had writers unable to submit their fics due to that issue.

Let me know what you guys think...

I'm rewatching some S3 ouat, and wow, I forgot how much tension was between Emma and Hook. I already know they'll get together, get married, and have a daughter, but I'm halfway through S3 and I'm just inwardly yelling at them to just kiss already. 😂

I love it!  Do you remember how excruciating it was when we were going through season 3 live?  Oh man, 3B was INTERMINABLE.  I was dying for Emma to find out he gave up his ship for her (and for us to have it confirmed) and for Emma to finally thank him for what he did for her. She was so angry and guarded, but at the same time totally allowing her walls to come down one metaphorical brick at a time. 

The tension in 3x14 and the “If it can be broken, it means it still works” scene was off the charts. I mean... those two almost went up in flames standing across from each other!  

Killian was just there half-declaring his love for her with everything he said and every look he gave her all season long.

However, when Emma finally turns a corner and doesn’t want to live in the past anymore, Hook steps back because of the Zelena curse.  Dang.

Then to have it culminate in the greatest two episodes of OUAT in history... the CAPTAIN SWAN MOVIE?  I die. You die. We all die for CS.
