Chapter One

Katrina watched as Emma leaned over her dead son. As Emma whispered, "I love you." and leaned over and kissed his forehead.

Suddenly, there was a whoosh and Katrina gasped as memories came flooding back. She stared at her hands and slowly backed against the wall.

"No..." she whispered, tears filling her eyes. She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Emma staring at her with concern,

"Are you alright?"

Katrina shook her head then pulled away from Emma. "I...I need to gather my thoughts." she said and walked briskly out of the room.

She barely saw or heard anything as she hurried to the one place she always had been happiest, even durning the curse when she didn't know why she felt so happy there, the sea. She walked up to the end of the docks and sat down, legs dangling over the edge. As she breathed in the salty air, she smiled slightly, fingering the pendant that was hanging around her neck.

"I love you." he whispered into her ear, "Marry me."

She turned around and looked at him, a smile on her face, "Nothing would make me happier."

His face lit up at her answer and he smiled, "Then lets make it official."

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a ring out of his pocket. She smiled and held out her left hand, he slipped it on her ring finger. As she held out her hand to admire it, he gently put his hand under her chin and tilted it up so she was looking at him.

"Is this really what you want?" he asked her.

She smiled and put her hand on his cheek, "More than anything, I love you with all my heart."

Then, as to prove it, she pulled him in closer and kissed him gently.

A tear slipped down Katrina's check as she fingered the ring that was now back on her finger. "Killian..." she whispered. "please come back to me."
