& I can’t let you go, your hand prints on my soul; It’s like your eyes are liquor, it’s like your body is gold.

Summary: Leaving home and a career as a roller coaster engineer on a whim with his six year old daughter was one of the last things Killian Jones wanted to do. But after falling in love with someone he’d met online to find out he’d been catfished, it seemed like the best idea. It seems even more appealing when Emma Swan, musician and bartender at a charming Irish Pub, enters his life… even if his brother and daughter have to be the ones to help him realize it.

CSSS Christmas to Countdown: Dec 23 - Christmas Wrapping

Note: This ficlet is a part of my Christmas Countdown gift to @shipsxahoy, who is my giftee for Captain Swan Secret Santa and almost my artist for Captain Swan Little Bang. This piece is inspired by one of her favorite Christmas songs, which is Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses. There’s another fic out there, which is also inspired by the song but I did not read it because I wanted this fic to be an entirely different take. All similarities between the fics, if any, are entirely coincidental. Summary: Not feeling the Christmas spirit this year, Emma Swan decides to spent the holiday alone. Her neighbor Killian Jones has other ideas. Rating: T Word Count: 2,300+

It was Christmas Eve and Emma Swan didn’t have a tree. She also didn’t have colored lights. Or tacky string of festive garland. Or even a wreath. In fact, there wasn’t any decorations up in Emma’s apartment.

Bah humbug, indeed.

It wasn’t that she hated the holidays. Quite the opposite, in fact. Normally her home would look like Santa Claus had thrown up all over it. She just didn’t have enough energy to deal with the festivities after the hell year she had. She just wanted to watch shitty superhero movies, drink copious amounts of wine and forget about the fact she had lost both her job, her son and her husband. (She was more upset about the job and her kid not being around than the loss of her ex. If she were honest, she never truly had the husband to begin with considering the amount of times that he had stepped out during their marriage.)

However, she couldn’t voice that opinion to her friends. Mary-Margaret and David would have a coronary if they knew about her lack of Christmas spirit. Which is why she hadn’t told him that she wasn’t coming to their party and had promptly turned off her phone from the storm of text messages she knew was waiting for her.
