It's all coming back to me

AN: This story takes place during the 'In the name of the brother'. The idea of this story came from the Ghost Whisper, they killed off Melinda (Jennifer Love Hewitts) husband Jim in the series, but they brought him back. They did it by letting him use another body on the brink of death. When everyone looked at him, they saw the man of the body that he took but Melinda knew it was him. Hopefully this story isn't too confusing. This is a Graham& Emma story with hints of Killian/Emma. It's named after 'It's all coming back to me' by Celine Dion.

I want to dedicate this story to Rlefay, because you have inspired me and keep me writing! You are the best!

Killian Jones sat up getting of the bed he had laid on, looking around to find him, in a strange room filled with odd machines. His blue eyes grew wide, when he saw his body lying in the bed battered and bruised, with his hand handcuffed to the bed. Emma was staring at his battered face as he lay in the bed, her green eyes filled with sadness.

"She's beautiful." He heard a man's voice with an Irish accent similar to his. Killian looked from Emma to see a man slightly taller than him walking up behind her. The man had light brown hair that was curly and a neatly trimmed beard. He was wearing a blue button up shirt with a maroon tie, a grey button up vest with grey pants and black boots.

"I'm I dead?" He asked him raising a brow. "And who the bloody hell are you?" He asked him crossing him arms over his chest, looking down to see he had his other hand back. His eyes filled with wonder staring at his hand that he had lost so many years ago.

"My name's Graham but some people call me the Huntsman. You're not dead, although you do have some choices to make." He answered his questions looking at him. Killian was ignoring him staring at his hand. "Hello, are you listening to me?" He asked, gaining the pirates attention.

"I'm listening. What decisions do I need to make?" Killian asked him annoyed, not liking the spirit that they sent to him very much. He wished it would have been Milah.

"She cares about you." Graham's voice wavered as looked away from Killian, bending down next to Emma staring up at her beautiful face, with a bitter-sweet smile on his lips and his blue eyes filled with love. "You should feel honored that someone as amazing as her could care about you. You don't deserve it." His hand reached up to her cheek, his ghostly fingers trying to touch her cheek. Emma's eyes fluttered shut with a soft smile on her lips for a moment, almost like she could feel him. He moved his hand away as her eyes opened again.

"She doesn't care about me! Emma abandoned me at the top of that beanstalk. She made her choice, it wasn't me." Killian replied bitterly to Graham, who stood up walking over to him. "Why do care so much about Emma?" He asked studying the former sheriff.

"She didn't want to, she was scared. Scared that you would betray her or leave her like everyone else in her life. Emma knew that she had to get back to her son Henry, she couldn't take the chance she might be wrong about you." Graham replied to him pausing. "I didn't want to leave her but I didn't have a choice. Emma broke my curse when she kissed me and made me feel again even without a heart. I was going to kiss her again, when Regina squeezed my heart into dust. It hurt like hell, but it was nothing compared to watching Emma hold my dead body crying." Graham's voice cracked looking over at Emma, who sat in the chair watching Killian.

Killian swallowed hard, looking at Emma knowing exactly how she had felt in that moment. He knew that they had things in common like being orphans and love having been rare in both of their lives, but he had no idea they had so much in common. "What choice do I have to make?" He asked Graham, his eyes still locked on Emma.

"You have the choice to go back to your body or to die. If you go back to your body, then you will have forgotten who you are, as well as everything that's happened." He started to explain seeing Killian open his mouth. "I'm not finished yet." Graham said to him sternly, getting an annoyed look from the pirate, although he shut up waiting to hear the rest. "If you go back you won't remember who you are, but she'll take care of you. You will still be you but without all the pain and anger, you'll fall in love with her, she will love you. You'll have a family together and be happier than you've ever been in your life." Graham told him, his voice catching wishing that it was him, who could live that life.

"So you're telling me that if I go back, I will have a home and family with Swan but I won't remember my old life or Milah." Killian said to him, raising a brow at Graham, who only nodded at him. He went over to Emma, bending down next to her looking at her face, while she stared at his body on the hospital bed. "I didn't plan on falling in love with Milah but I did. I felt nothing but rage and sadness, until I met Emma .I've wanted her since the moment that I saw her, at first I thought it was just to bed her but she challenges me like no one ever has. I love a challenge." He said not looking at Graham, who flinched at his words.

Emma leaned forward putting her hand on his leg looking around first then looked back at him, "You are a real pain in my ass, Hook." Emma said to him with a half-smile on her face, Killian grinned at her words as he stared look up at her knelt beside her. "I can't believe I'm going to say this but you need to wake up, because I'd miss you. I can tell you this because you can't hear me, but I like you as annoying as you are most of the time." Emma smiled at him brushing her hand over his leg. "I haven't let myself care about many people, but you wormed you way in, so you can't die on me. I need you to fight, because I can't lose you like I did Graham.. Please Killian" She said to him closing her eyes, tears falling down her cheeks.

Killian wished that he could pull her into his arms, he watched her cry then looked up Graham, seeing the pain in his eyes. "Why won't I be able to remember if I go back?" He asked him.

"You're not supposed to go back, but I begged for you to get the chance to go back, so Emma could have her happy ending. If you remember everything, Gold will come after you. It's the only way that you can go back." Graham explained to him, his blue eyes tearing up. "I would do anything for the opportunity to go back to her. You're a bloody idiot if you don't take this chance. I've seen your future if you go back. I've seen your and Emma's children. If you care about her, then you'll go back." Graham told him fighting back the tears. He felt sorrow that it wouldn't be him, but hoped that Killian would take this chance, giving Emma a happy life.

"I don't deserve this chance or her." Killian said to him standing up looking at Graham.

"She deserves it. You're a lucky man." Graham replied to him watching Killian's blue eyes, as they looked back at the woman that he loved more than anything.

"You're right. She does deserve it." He smiled at her reaching down touching her face; much like Graham did earlier, causing her to put her hand on her cheek. "I've never been a good man or done the right thing, but I'm going to do it now." He said to him walking over to Graham.

Graham felt tears running down his cheek, "All you need to do is go back into your body." He said to him looking over at it.

"Okay, it's settled." Killian replied to him grabbed the Sheriff by the shirt, he startled him as dragged him over towards the bed.

"What are you doing?!" Graham exclaimed fighting Killian, trying to knock his hands off him. "I'm trying to help you!" He yelled at him angry, looking the pirate in the eyes.

"So I am!" Killian yelled back at Graham angry. "You're right that I don't deserve her, but you bloody do! I've been a selfish bastard my whole life. A big part of me wants to take you up on your offer, but I'm going to do the right thing for once. "He said to him as a shocked Graham stopped fighting him, letting him pull him to the bed. "You deserve the second chance not me, so you are going to take my body. You will have a home and children with her." He finished thrusting Graham's spirit into his body. Graham's eyes grew large before his spirit disappeared into Killian's body.

Killian watched his body's eyes fly open, looking over at Emma, "Where am I? Who are you?" His hoarse voice called out, he looked at her confused then around the room.

"What is the last thing that you remember?" Emma asked her leaning in to look into his eyes, looking to see if he was lying. She watched Killian's brow furrow, while he stared at her. "It's okay. Take your time." She told him giving his leg a small squeeze of support at the lost look in his eyes.

"Nothing, before I opened my eyes to see your face." He frowned at her trying so hard to remember anything. "Why I am handcuffed to the bed?" He asked.

"My name is Emma. Your name is Killian Jones." She told him able to tell that he didn't remember anything at all. "Sorry, I didn't want you to run off. I'll uncuff you." She took the handcuff key out of her pocket releasing him.

His blue eyes ran over her face, almost like he was trying to memorize it, "You're beautiful." He said to her, looking at him in awe. Emma couldn't help but grin and let out a light laugh.

"It figures even with amnesia, you can't help but be a flirt." Emma grinned at him, enjoying the humor in the situation. "I should get Dr. Whale." She told him starting to get up but his hand wrapped around tighter her.

"Don't leave me." He whispered to her not wanting her to go. "Please" He added shaking her up. Emma had never seen Hook so helpless or in need. It shook her.

"I'll stay." She said to him giving him a small smile, sitting on the edge of his bed. "Are you in pain?" She asked him concerned.

"It helps having you here." He told her gritting his teeth in pain, while Emma reached over him grabbing the call button.

A nurse walked into the room, "He needs some pain medicine." Emma told the nurse, who nodded at her returning with a shot putting it in his IV.

"Mm" Graham smiled at her, his eyes glazing over almost immediately. "I feel better." He told her, before his eyes fluttered shut falling asleep.

"Thank you." Emma said to the nurse, the nurse left room passing Gold on the way. "You need to leave now, Gold."

"Why should I? He deserves to die. He took Belle from me." He told her pushing her up against the wall using magic.

"Stop! Don't do this! Belle wouldn't want this." She yelled at him trying to fight against his magic. "Please!" She yelled at him, he stopped to look at her.

"You care about this filthy pirate, don't you? I thought better of you Sheriff Swan." Rumpelstiltskin said to her looking disgusted. "Here I thought you knew when someone is lying." He made ticking noise at her walking over to the bed.

"Gold, please don't do this." Emma pleaded, watching Gold reach the bed. "Please" She begged him causing him look back at her. Gold looked down at the pirate in the bed, whose eyes fluttered open looking at him.

"Who are you?" Graham asked him looking at him confusion in his eyes, then over at Emma on the wall stunned. "What is going on? Don't hurt her." He said to the man in his room.

"How did that happen?" Gold whispered his brown eyes wide, able to see that the man in front of him wasn't Killian Jones, but really Sheriff Graham inside his body. "Well this is surprise." He said to him letting Emma go down to the ground. "I'll leave you alone for now, Sheriff." He said looking Graham, then left the room. He decided to keep the juicy tidbit to himself, until the time came that he could use it to his advantage.

"Okay, that was really weird. "Graham said as Emma smiled at him. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. It's a weird town, but trust me, you'll get use it." Emma told him, sitting down on the bed with him.

"One more question, what happened to my hand?" He asked her holding up his stump.

"You lost it many years ago; you didn't go into much detail about it." She answered only giving him the details that he needed, he smiled at her and she got the strangest feeling looking at him. It was almost like he was someone else; she brushed it off, thinking that it must be the amnesia.

Killian watched Graham interacting with Emma in his body, knowing that he did the right thing for everyone. It was obvious that Emma and Graham shared a connection to each other so deep, that even when they didn't know who each other were, there was still a very strong connection between them.

"Killian" He heard Milah's voice call out to him, his head to fly up looking at her, she was smiling at him.

"Milah" He whispered rushing over to her, pulling her into his arms embracing her tightly. "I missed you so much." His voice caught, his blue eyes filled with tears.

"I missed you too." She told him pulling away slightly looking at him. "Killian, why did you do that? You could have had a future, children, love and happiness." She said to him, she was happy to have him with her, but sad that he passed up the chance to live.

"I saw my future, when I tried touching her." Killian told her swallowing hard, images of him and Emma flickering before him of them making love, sailing together, taking Henry to the park as they sat on the bench watching. The images that made his heart clinch the most, were the ones of Emma pregnant with his child, and of him holding their children for the first time. "I was going to take it ...I wanted to, and then I saw the look on Graham's face. I had you waiting for me, while he would be stuck watching me, living the life that he wanted more than anything. Emma deserves to be loved, the way that he loves her."

Milah put her hand on his cheek smiling at him, "You're a good man, Killian Jones." She told him taking his hand, she lead him out of the room.

"Don't go spreading that around, Milah. It's bad for my reputation dead or alive." He grinned following her. He looked back at Emma, and then disappeared with Milah.

One week later

Emma drove into Storybrooke with Gold and Neal, furious that she had to see Neal's face ever again. It was cruel irony, that the man who had betrayed her was the son of Rumpelstiltskin, but she pushed all thoughts him out of her head. Over the past week Emma had kept thinking about Hook and Henry, unable to concentrate on anything but their well-being. The only thing that helped her relax was to call Mary Margaret and David for updates on them. She said that they were doing well, expect Hook still could remember anything, but Emma couldn't help but wonder if it was for the best. Hook had the opportunity to start over with a clean slate, a part of her was very jealous of his opportunity, although she couldn't help but feel bad for him as well. It must be frightening not to remember anything about who you are, she could only imagine how overwhelming all of it had to be.

She jumped out of the car, as soon as it came to a stop. Neal grabbed her arm, "Emma, where are you going? We still have some things to work out." He gave her a small smile, looking at her with pleading eyes.

"If you don't let go of my hand, I'm going to punch you again." Emma gritted out throwing his hand off her, her eyes angry eyes narrowed at him, before looking at Mr. Gold in the driver's seat. "You two will stay away from Henry, until I explain things to him. We are even now, Mr. Gold." She turned to leave, but Gold's voice caused her to stop.

"Are In a hurry to get back to your pirate, Sheriff Swan? I heard all of those phone calls that you made to your parents; it seems that you asked about him just as much as my grandson." Gold smiled at her, chills of fear traveled through her body, terrified that he would try to take Henry away from her.

"You will stay away from Henry and from Killian! Do I make myself clear!?" Emma growled at him, her hands closed into fists at her side.

"Crystal…but you can't keep me or my son away from Henry long; after all he is our family." He reminded her smiling evilly.

Emma glared at him; she chose to walk away instead of continuing to bicker with Gold and Neal, because she knew it would get her anywhere. Earlier Mary Margaret sent her a text message to tell her that she was at the hospital with Henry, it turned out that Henry had bonded with the pirate in her absence. Emma couldn't believe that her mother would let Henry anywhere near him. Although it seemed that even Mary Margaret was warming up to Killian, from the conversations that she had with her mother while she had been out-of-town.

The sound of Henry and Hook's laughter echoed through the hall as Emma made her way toward the hospital room, her breath caught in her chest when she walked in the room. Henry sat on the bed next to Killian looking at him laughing, Killian grinned laughing along with her son before he looked up noticing her. "Emma " He gave her a dazzling smile, his blue eyes dancing over her beaming with happiness, making her heart race.

"Mom, you're back!" Henry exclaimed jumping of the bed, throwing his arms around her holding her tightly.

"I missed you, kid." Emma grinned looking down at her son, holding him tightly to her. She tried pushing the thoughts of Gold and Neal out of her head, but the dark cloud of the drama yet to come had her very worried. "How are you feeling, Killian?" She asked even though it was clear, he was feeling better, if he was laughing with broken ribs.

"I'm feeling better. I was bored out of my mind, until Henry was nice enough to bring me a present to keep me occupied." Graham grinning, he pointed his stump to the dart board made of Velcro on the wall of the hospital room.

"Killian hasn't missed one time! He's awesome." Henry gushed about his new friend. He rushed over to the bed jumping on it.

"Henry!" Emma warned him frowning, worried that it could hurt Killian.

"I'm fine." Graham reassured Emma; he picked up the Velcro dart before turning to Henry. "I'm ready." He winked at Henry looking back at the board, and then Henry sat up putting his hands over Graham's eyes. Graham threw a dart, as Henry covered his eyes; it hit the bull's-eye dead in the center of it.

"It's that SO cool." Henry grinned looking over at Emma; her green eyes were large with surprise and her mouth open in on O. Memories the night Graham first kissed her rushed over her, him throwing the dart at her when she tried to leave him, him telling her that he cared about the way that she looked at him and him then he kissed her.

"Emma, are you okay?" Graham asked his blue eyes clouded with worry at seeing her face grow pale, he watched her nodding at her, but it was obvious that she wasn't. "Henry, do you think that you could get me a Sprite?" He asked him smiling.

"Sure, I'll be right back. Mom, do you want anything?" He asked climbing off the bed.

"No thank you. Hurry back, okay?" Emma replied, worried that Gold or Neal might show up.

"Okay." He gave her a nod; he walked out of the room looking back with a smile on his face. Killian had asked him all kinds of questions about Emma; it was obvious that he liked his mom.

"How was your trip?" Graham asked worried, as Emma walked over closer to the bed her eyes scanning over his face.

"It was terrible." She replied letting out a sigh. "Unfortunately, things are going to get worse before they get better." Emma confided in him, unsure of why she was doing it, but something about it felt familiar. That wasn't the only thing that felt familiar to her, the way that he looked at her, the way that he said her name, the way he played darts, it's was almost like...Emma froze her eyes staring at him growing large.

"What?" He asked the tone is his voice soft, his gaze looking at her with an aching tenderness. Emma felt like she was losing her mind, everything about reminded her of Graham. She sat down on the edge of the bed swallowing hard, her brain was telling her that she was crazy to think it, but her heart screamed at her she wasn't crazy.

Emma leaned in close to him, not taking her eyes off his. She tilting her head she moved in closer, Graham leaned in his lips brushing against hers tentatively, scared that he would scare her off. He hadn't been able to think of anything but her, the beautiful blonde named Emma ever since he woke up. Emma's hand's moved up to his shoulder's kissing him softly, tears threatened to fall at the ache in her chest. The ache told her that the man she was kissing was Graham Humbert not Killian Jones, but that was impossible. A ripple of magic burst from out of Emma and Graham as they kissed, Emma pulled away to look into the blue eyes in front of her filled with tears and wonder.

"Emma" Graham breathed out smiling, his hands cupped her cheeks as a tears fell down her cheeks. In that instant she knew, she knew that it was Graham that was in Killian's body.

"Graham?" She squeaked out, as tears of ran down her cheeks. Graham nodded at her, a sob of relief escaped her chest, and Graham pulled her to him kissing her forehead as Emma clung to him crying.

"God, I missed you so much, Emma." Graham whispered to him, putting his hands under her chin tilting her head, so he could look at her.

"H..How is this possible? What happened to Killian?" Emma asked, her eyes roamed over the face of Killian Jones, but she knew without a doubt it was Graham's soul in the body.

"Isn't the princess supposed to get her happy ending? I had to make that happen." He grinned, starting to pull her into a kiss, but she stopped him and he raised a brow.

"I need a little more details than that, Graham." Emma replied, needing to know how Graham ended up in Hook's body.

"Later" He said giving her a mischievous smile, then his lips crashed into hers kissing her. He learned from his last life, that he shouldn't take one moment for granted, and that was exactly what he was going to do.

"Um, um." They heard someone clearing their throat. They pulled apart looking over to the door to see Mary Margaret and Henry holding a coke with wide eyes, but Henry was grinning at them.
