Letters From The Sky

Emma/Gold Fanfic

"One of these days the sky's gonna break and everything will escape and I'll know,"

"Gold!"

The bell on the front door to Mr. Gold's Pawn Shop chimed angrily as Storybrook's infamous Mayor nearly shook the door off its hinges.

"Well hello there, Regina, how are you today?" A very irritable pawnbroker grumbled.

"She's here," The woman growled. "Henry's birthmother is here and I would like to know why!"

Mr. Gold heart gave a heavy thud at the news as he placed his hands on the counter. She's here! The girl is here already? Surely it was too soon! He quickly composed himself before the mayor noticed.

"My dear Regina, I have no idea what you are talking about I'm afraid." He said smoothly as he limped out from behind the shop counter.

"You were the one who brought Henry to me. You said it was a closed adoption and now she's here!" The Mayor growled. Gold couldn't help but smirk at this.

"Ah, I see," He began. "Afraid of losing Henry are you?"

"No of course not! I-" She cut her self off as the man raised an eyebrow at her.

Regina Mills flushed an angry red before straightening her back and spitting at him, "Fine then, I'll just get rid of her on my own."

Mr. Gold's eyes danced with humor as he watched her stomp out of his little shop.

"I wish you luck with that one," He said to himself. "May the games begin."

Emma Swan sat in her car as she furiously worked out the situation in her head.

"That bitch!" She hissed furiously under her breath. "How dare she accuse me after I tried to help her!" Her best shot was to just get out of here and forget that anything happened. But for some reason, Emma couldn't bring herself to leave. Now that she had spent some time with Henry she actually wanted to stay.

I'll just stay a week like the boy asked, She thought. That's all. And with that Emma started up her little yellow bug and drove down to a place called Granny's. She made her way up to the front door as she kept telling herself that she was making the right decision.

"Hello?" Emma called out as she opened the door and was surprised when an elderly woman stormed into the front hall while scolding a young woman. Once she saw the blond her next words quickly died out.

"Well hello, how may I help you?" The elderly woman asked.

"I would like a room," Emma offered.

The woman was obviously caught off guard by this. "Y-yes of course!" She stammered as she quickly made her way behind her desk as if Emma would change her mind any second.

"So would you like a square view or a forest view? The square view is more but since business has been a little slow we'll make an exception."

"The square view sounds nice," Emma smiled.

The two women didn't notice Mr. Gold limp silently into the front room to collect his pay. He smiled slyly at Ruby as he passed her but was surprised to see a blond at the front desk. Hmm, that's odd. He thought.

"Okay here's your room key, and what name would this be under?"

"Emma, Emma Swan."

Emma. Gold thought surprised. Apparently his inner dialogue was spoken out loud because now the two women were looking at him questioningly.

"What a lovely name," He offered lamely to the blond.

"Well, um, thanks." Emma said awkwardly.

"Here's your money," Granny spat as she held out a wad of money. "We were barely able to scrape it together." She reminded him.

"Of course," Gold said. "It's just business after all." He turned back to Emma and gave her a smile before letting his eyes roam her figure. "You enjoy your stay."

And with that Gold gave Ruby a nod before walking out of the door. So that's the savior, interesting. He smirked as he made his way back to his shop.

"Who was that?" Emma asked suspiciously as she watched Gold out of the front window.

"That was Mr. Gold. He owns this place," Ruby grumbled.

"The Inn?" Emma asked.

"No. The whole town." Granny muttered.

AN: A little short I know but I am trying to follow how Gold and Emma interact with each other in each episode. I am a huge fan of the whole Emma/Gold pairing and there are barely any Gemma fanfics out there and it just kills me! The tension between Emma and Gold in every episode just keeps growing stronger in my opinion. So review and tell me what you think!(:
