Thanks for all the follows and favourites on the other part.
So the person who requested this wanted me to carry it on, here we are, Hi Danielle, I changed your prompt slightly sorry but I hope you like it.
Have faith in your dreams and someday
your rainbow will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
if you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true
A dream is a wish is your heart makes
They never left each others side, peeking at each other when they didn't think they'd notice. They did.
Their display of outward affection earned them some wolf whistles from Ruby and Will, an about time from Henry and Snow, and a groan from David and Regina.
Regina and Robin were the last to leave, thankfully taking Henry with them. He winked at them when he bade them goodnight.
It was only them and their parents left now. Killian thanked them for planning such a celebration, not that he'd ever doubted their capabilities of course, their royal balls had quite the reputation, he was babbling and everyone knew it.
"Both of you go, you need to talk and rest."
Killian raised his eyebrows suggestively, Emma returned a flirtatious smile.
"You know I love you Emma, but as your father there are certain things I don't want to think about. " David remarked.
Snow offered them a knowing look, and they left the diner hand in hand, Emma's head resting on his shoulder.
It was a beautiful night, out of habit he gazed at the stars, silently thanking them. The stars had always put things into perspective, they were planets that had imploded, the fire had long since been extinguished yet they were beautiful even in death.
"What do they mean, the stars. " She asked, curious
"Well the stars are as a pirates best friend. "
"I thought a pirate's best friend was rum". she chuckled, it felt good to laugh again, it hadn't happened in a while.
Alas no, tis the stars, they can help you weather any storm. The stars are the same wherever you are, they have always guided me home, he looked at her, praying that she'd understood him. She had.
"K..killian, I did some terrible things, I let the darkness take over me. I was in some kind of fortress, a dark sorceress, everyone feared me, would do anything for me. I was responsible for atrocities, I killed innocent people. I didn't want to, not truly but the power was all consuming. I couldn't control anything. I just wanted it all to end but I couldn't bear not seeing you or my family, henry again. I needed to get back, no matter what the cost. I'm scared, I could've never imagined doing what I did, but I did it and it was my choice. My heart is dark, I'm not the person you knew before. I love you, I love you with every ounce of my body, but I don't know what I'm capable of anymore and I can't, can't lose you, never again."
"Emma, whatever you did, you did because you had too, not because you wanted to. Did you do things regret, probably. Did you do things that will haunt you for the rest of your life. Yes. That doesn't mean you give up, you just have to fight harder. I have killed countless people not because I had too, but because I was angry, chasing vengeance. I know you, Emma, I love you, try something new, trust. Trust that no matter where you are, I will find you, trust that no matter how scared, upset you are, that I will be there to comfort you, trust that whenever you feel the darkness creeping up on you, we will defeat it together, trust that you are never alone."
Emma had never felt more loved before, her heart swelled, tears cascading down her cheeks. She knew no matter what the future held, she wanted to spend it with him.
"Killian, will you marry me? "
"It would be a pleasure my love. "
...
He led her to the captains cabin, she was asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. He grabbed some blankets and moved her gentle curls that had fallen across her eyes. He was going to marry the person of his dreams. He was just about to leave, they had the rest of their lives to spend together when he heard her mutter stay. He obliged gladly, sliding in beside her. He lay there staring at ceiling of the cabin, listening to the sound of her heartbeat.
She spent the whole night wandering how she'd got so lucky.
A dream truly was a wish your heart makes.
Hope you liked it. Constructive criticism, reviews always appreciated.
