The sirens wailed and the smoke arose in the distance as Killian was making his regular run to Granny's. It was his day at the station while Emma was at Snow's helping watch Neal. As the trucks passed him he worried slightly-must be because of him just being married he doesn't want to loose her again-Of where the fire is. He's on his break so David should be going with them. He looks back just to make sure. 'Don't turn left, don't turn left please' he silently hopes. They turn left. Right towards Snow and David's neighborhood. The smoke is now clouding the area; just barely reaching the station across the town. His concern for his wife but also his parents-in-law overpowers his calm side as he starts sprinting to reach the place where the fire is coming from. His darkest and most terrifying thoughts cloud his mind as he reaches the source of the flames. His heart drops as Snow and David's house-half burnt and still in flames-is surrounded by ambulances and police cars. Killian searches for the sherif car and more importantly-Emma. He's skimming through the people sitting in the ambulances getting treated for their burns as his eyes land on her. He runs over and stops in front of her. She's covered in soot and her hands and arms are covered in burns big and small. Her hair is matted and stuck to her forehead. She looks up at him with relief and with love. If not for the burns and him being worried of hurting her, Killian would have enveloped her in a big hug while kissing her forehead. He feels utter relief and sits next to her. He doesn't say anything-there's nothing to say. While one arm is getting bandaged her other reaches for Killian's. Although they are heavily bandaged and she winces at the touch, she smiles. "I went back in to help everyone get out." She looks at her feet as silent tears fall because of the pain. She expects him to scold her for being so stupid putting herself in danger like that, but he doesn't say anything; just stares at her and she can see relief and love in his deep blue eyes. Killian can think of nothing but how bloody brave and kind his wife is-always putting herself before others-though it scares him to death. After the nurse finishes patching her up, Emma hops down and starts trying to work her way to Snow who was a few blocks down. She had helped the children get away from the smoke. Emma winces and immediately Killian puts his hand on the small of her back and stops her. "Emma you can barely walk and those burns are serious, your mother will be alright. We need to get home" she gives him a look that says he's annoying but right. She lets him pick her up and through winces and more tears Killian has her in his arms. "I know you were worried and I'm sorry" she finally says as they are outside their house. Killian puts her down and gently takes her hand in his. "This is who you are, I knew what was in for me when I married you. I wouldn't ever ask you to change. I'm just glad your safe" they smile as each other and walk inside. Killian helps Emma wash her hair-being careful not to get the burns-and eventually they are snuggling on the couch watching TV. Not many words were exchanged that day between them. Just the relief that both were ok.
