Come Away to the water

The charmings go for a swim. Just a lot of fluff and no curse... Because I just love fluff! THREE SHOT.

Chapter 3:

"James" Snow said swimming slowly to the edge of the water, her husband eyeing her suspiciously "Now you will pay for doing that! That's no way of treating a lady..."

"I am sorry" James said sincerely "I couldn't resist"

"I see" Snow said "Then I won't resist you sleeping somewhere else tonight" James's face was stone like. Emma had her arms wrapped around her mother's neck "Unless.."

"Snow..." James said "Come on, it was just as innocent as..."

"Charming?" Snow said suppressing a laugh from his reaction "Close your mouth and get inside already" James smirked


Once James got inside slowly holding Michael up in the air "Guess this is not that bad after all.." He made the baby's toes touch the water slowly and Michael pouted.

"Give him here" Snow said and then turned to Emma "Now angel why don't you swim a bit towards daddy?" Emma looked unsure and waved her head.

"Come on Emm" James encouraged her "I got you" Emma bit her lip and then took a deep breath letting go of her mother, James reached for her hand as soon as she moved in his direction "There you go great job" Emma beamed at him.

"I did it Mamma!" she said exitedly. Snow smirked back "Yay!"

"Yes you did" Snow said proudly "Such a big girl"

"Oh" James kissed Emma's wet cheek "Please not that much"

"Feeling nostalgic, dear?" Snow leaned to kiss him. Both children squeezed between them "Don't worry"

"About?" James asked amused. Emma smiled widely at her dad "What are you implying?" Snow leaned to kiss him on the cheek now "I am not worried, she is still young, aren't you sweet pea?"

"Yes!" Emma said "But I am also a big girl daddy!" Snow smiled when James rolled his eyes.

"Fair enough" James agreed leaning against a rock. Emma still clutched safely in his arms "Let's see it then, why would you say if we practiced a bit?" Emma smiled at him but then turned to Snow for reassurance. Snow nodded. James and Emma parted a bit farther and tried some kicks and simple merging and diving. Snow's eyes followed them adoringly as she totted Michel who was now more used to the water. She cheered Emma and once in a while stole a kiss or two from her husband.

"She's gettting the hang of it" James whispered to Snow as Emma was now by herself a few yards away counting as she kicked the water "She's a quck study"

"Much like yourself Charming" Snow said as she remembered that one time that she had taught him to swim properly, well more like she tried.

"I guess I was" James smiled kissing her on the lips and taking Michael from her "How is my little guy doing?"

"Not so giggling" Snow pointed out "Maybe he is too young"

"He begs to differ" James nudged her arm "Look at that" Michael was now trying to catch the water with his hand and giggled as he made it splash. He looked up at James their matching eyes locked as if he was searching for some kind of aproval. James just kissed his nose making him laugh.

"Daddy!" Emma called out "I am tired now!" Snow turned to her husband.

"Duty is calling" Snow said "I'll go" James kept looking at Michael lost in his deep gaze.

The rest of the day went smoothly as they lost track of time and began to get hungry. "Just in time" James shook his wet hair and put on his white shirt and shoes "Here"He covered Snow and the children with a blanket that, like the towels had been stashed since the last time they had been here.

"You think of everything don't you Charming?" Snow pulled him closer to him "But really.. that cannot be hygienic"

"They were cleaned" James said "I made sure of it"

"Okay" Snow said pleased "Still, we could have made a nice picnic"

"Maybe we will" James carried Emma who had fallen asleep from all the excitement as Snow held Michael, both of them clearly exhausted "Next time, you and me"

"That sounds nice" Snow traced her hand along the scar on his chin "And maybe have another swimming lesson?" She said playfully...They froze as they heard Gilbert clear his throat as they kissed a bit too, passionate.

"Right on time" James said firmly "Very good"

"Thank you sir" Gilbert bowed "I must say I had a good feeling you would be exhausted by now" Gilbert smiled at both of them "Seeing the little ones had a day" He glanced at the sleeping children "I hope you did too"

"We did" Snow leaned her head on James shoulder and Gilbert opened the carriage door "Thank you"


"I could stay like this forever" Snow said as they watched Michael sleep "Just looking at him"

"Then we would starve" James joked making her roll her eyes "I know what you mean"

"Emma was down in a second" Snow countered "As soon as her head hit the pillow" James smiled and kissed her forehead.

"I could do the same" James said tiredly "What do you say we do?" Snow smiled and they both kissed Michael again and then retrieved to their chambers


"Charming" Snow said as they got ready for bed "About that swimming lesson?"

"Yes?" James said as he sat next to her on the bed "What about it?"

"I was thinking..." Snow bit her lip. He understood quickly where she was going with the conversation "Just kiss me"

"Gladly" He crashed his lips into hers making her fall back on the bed "Wait" He said breaking the contact "What about sleep?"

"Are you really that tired?" Snow smirked kissing his neck "I can stop if you want me too"

"On second thought..." James smirked seductively "I might take a theoretical swimming lesson now, and besides, who needs to sleep, I will when I die"

"Yes you will" Snow giggled "I love you so much"

"I love you too, more than my own life" James said sweetly cupping her face in his hands "And I must thank you my love"

Snow ceased an eyebrow "For?"

"For loving me" James said sweetly and rubbed his nose against hers "And giving me, two beautiful children and a life I could have never dreamed of" Snow felt tears coming out.

"And I thank you" Snow said adoringly "For finding me"
