Chapter 1
Time for Family
Emma woke up and realized that she was in her bed. She felt drained of energy. She heard dishes clanging in the kitchen and a few minutes later, Killian came in. He saw that she was awake and walked quickly over to her and sat at her bedside. "Hey, how are you feeling?" Emma smiled and sat up.
"I'm feeling pretty good. A little tired, but okay." she said with a smile. Killian returned the smile. Her face became a little concerned. "How are you feeling Killian?" Killian nodded. "Just fine, I even went to see Whale and he said there was nothing wrong with my heart."
Killian took her hand and held it to his chest. "Regina told me what you did to save my life. Thank you Emma. You saved my life, I wasn't ready to die, ready to let you go." Emma smiled and Killian kissed her hand. "What happened after everything?"
Killian took a deep breath and looked at her. "Well you collapsed and we rushed you to the hospital where you needed a blood transfusion. Then Regina did her best to heal you, but she was only able to age the wounds about three weeks. You can't use any magic right now because you have used a lot lately."
"You are off work on the next week or so. You can't have any stress or magic. For now you just need to rest." Emma sighed and nodded. "How are Henry, my parents?" Killian nodded. "They are okay, they have been here to visit you everyday."
Emma nodded and then thought about it. "Wait, how long have I been asleep? Three days, with all the wounds and the blood loss, Whale didn't want you to be awake after he took the bullets out and everything. He said the pain would be too much for even you." Emma nodded.
Emma looked at his face. "Can you do me a favor?" Killian nodded. "Anything. Can you call my parents and Henry, I don't want them to worry about me anymore than they have to." Killian nodded.
"I'll be right back." He walked out into the kitchen and picked up his phone and called them. He walked back into the room and sat next to her. "They will be here soon." Emma nodded. Soon Mary Margaret, David, Neal, and Henry came into the room. Henry ran over and hugged her tightly. Emma hugged him just as tightly.
Her parents walked over with her baby brother. They all hugged her. "We are so glad you are okay." said Mary Margaret. Emma smiled and they broke apart. Mary Margaret handed Emma her baby brother and she hugged her brother.
"Why don't we move to the living room? There isn't much room in here." said Emma. They all agreed. Killian looked at her. "Can you walk okay?" Emma nodded with a smile. "Yeah, I'll be right there." Killian nodded.
They all walked out of the room. Emma moved her sore body to the edge of the bed. She went to stand and a shooting pain shot through her injured leg. She hissed in pain. 'Get over it Emma.'
She walked over to the dresser, using it to brace her up. She walked into the living room, ignoring the searing pain in her leg. She sat down at the table with her family. "So what else have I missed?" she asked.
"Well, not much really, Gold is still holed up in Zelena's, and Cruella is still in the cell where you left her." Emma nodded. "So he hasn't come near any of you?" They all shook their heads. Emma nodded.
"Good." Killian took her hand. "I don't know about all of you, but I am still extremely furious with the crocodile." Emma agreed. "I am angry for what he put all of you through. And the fact that Killian was killed." said Emma.
Killian nodded. "I hate him for what he did to you." he said looking at Emma. Gold sat a the table in the kitchen watching the rain fall. He was disgusted with himself for what he had done. He couldn't even look Belle in the eye.
He sighed and walked to the window. He heard a creak. He turned to a soaked Killian. "Pirate." said Gold. Killian walked over, grabbing Gold by the throat and pushing him into the wall.
"Let's get something clear crocodile, if you ever do anything to hurt Emma or Henry again, I will not hesitate to use dreamshade again. And I will make sure that you are on the other of the town line so the poison will spread, and you can't stop it. I will not let you hurt my family again. That woman and that boy are my life now. Just be warned."
He let Gold go, he looked at Killian. "I can tell that you love Ms. Swan and Henry. You look at them like I used to look at Milah and Bae." Killian nodded. Gold breathed deeply. "You are all right. Bae would be disappointed in the man that I have become, the man I still am." Killian nodded.
"Aye, he would be. But that doesn't mean that you can't still fix the damage that you have done. Now, I will always hate you, and I think that Emma and Henry will always be angry with you, but I am willing to call a truce. I will not pursue you. And you will not pursue me. Deal?" Killian held out his hand.
Gold looked at him and nodded, shaking his hand. Killian nodded and headed home. He came in and realized that Emma had fallen asleep on the sofa. Killian smiled and picked her up and carried her in the room and laid her on the bed, laying with her. Emma woke up early the next morning and went to get up.
Emma hissed in pain and looked at Killian, worrying that she woke him up. She breathed a sigh of relief and limped badly into the kitchen. She grasped the counter in pain. She breathed, trying to breathe through the pain.
Killian woke up and saw that he was alone. He became worried and walked into the kitchen and saw Emma. "Emma! You shouldn't be up! You're still too injured." Emma scoffed, brushing off the wounds.
"I'm fine Killian." She took a step and her bad leg gave out, Killian catching her. "See? You still need to rest a little." Killian picked her up and walked her over to the sofa, setting her down lightly. Emma shook her head.
"I'm sorry, I always brush off my wounds, I don't like to be a burden on people." Killian scoffed and sat next to her. "You are not a burden on anyone. You have been gravely injured and you just need to rest a bit. You have to stay off your leg." Emma nodded and sighed.
"Fine. I won't walk on it unless I have to." Killian chuckled and kissed the side of her head. "When you are feeling a lot better, we will finally have that date on the ship." Emma smiled and nodded. "Where did you go? You were gone for a while."
Killian nodded. "I went to Zelena's and talked to the crocodile. I told him that he needed to stay away from you and Henry. I won't have him hurting my family again." Emma looked at Killian with a smile. Killian looked at her.
"What?" Emma shook her head. "You called us your family." Killian smiled. "Of course I did. You and Henry are my family." Emma smiled and laid her head on his shoulder.
"And he said that he wouldn't harm you again. He also agreed with what everyone said about Bae being disappointed. I also told him that it wasn't too late to change who he was. We also called a truce."
Emma nodded. "I'm proud of you Killian. I seriously thought that the next time you saw Gold, you would kill him." Killian nodded and looked at her. "I wanted to. But then I thought about my promise to you. I promised that I wouldn't pursue him any longer. And I want to do right by you."
Emma smiled and nodded. "I'm proud of you Killian." Killian smiled and they leaned in to kiss. Killian put his chin on the top of her head. "I love you Emma." Emma looked up with a smile. "I love you too."
They cuddled up together. Emma looked outside. The sky was blue, the sun was shining and the water was calm. She looked at Killian. "Killian? Can you take me to the water?" Killian smiled and nodded.
He picked her up and carried her to the beach and sat her in the sand, the water touching her toes. She closed her eyes and just enjoyed the sun on her face, and the cool salt water. Killian sat next to her and smiled.
"You really enjoy the sea don't you?" he asked. Emma opened her eyes and looked at him and smiled. "Yeah, it's calming. I really understand why you love it so much." Killian smiled. Emma laid her head on his shoulder, he laid his head on hers.
"I really think there is some pirate in you Swan." Emma giggled and nodded. She looked at his crystal blue eyes. "Me too." Killian smiled and kissed the side of her head. They sat there on their beach and just listened to the small waves hit the rocks and the sand.
"Finally, we have time to just relax, without anything getting in the way." Emma said with a smile. Killian chuckled and nodded. "Yes, like I said, we nee to enjoy these moments of peace." Emma nodded and shut her eyes. Killian rubbed up and down her arm.
He looked down and saw a faint scar that goes to her elbow. "Is this from my hook?" Emma raised her head and looked at him and nodded. "Yeah, but you can barely see it." Killian sighed loudly. Emma looked straight into his eyes.
"I bet you have a scar from when I stabbed you. Like you said, don't feel bad for something you had control over." Killian looked at her and nodded. "You're right." Emma smiled. "What do you want for lunch?" asked Emma.
Killian shrugged his shoulders. "Something I can make. You still shouldn't be on your feet yet." Emma rolled her eyes. "I'm injured, not dead." said Emma. Killian nodded. "Yeah I know. But I just want you to rest. You are always taking care of everyone. Let someone take care of you for a change."
Emma sighed. "Fine. Let's just order take out." she said. They ordered from Granny's and they ate in the living room while watching a movie. "This is what the world sees pirates? This 'Captain' Sparrow is pathetic!" said Killian. Emma busted out laughing.
"It's just a movie Killian." Killian looked from the screen to her. "Really, is this how the world sees us? This is pathetic! And not true!" Emma laughed and nodded. "I know what a real pirate is. I'm dating one." said Emma with a smile.
Killian smiled. A dark shadow came from the shade of a tree. The figure looked at the couple laughing and enjoying themselves. "Don't worry Hook, you will lose your happiness again. Soon you will no longer have anything to live for. The Dark One will be the least of your worries. He is nothing compared to what I have planned for your precious Savior."
He backed away. Gold sat at the window and he heard a knock on the door. He walked to the door and opened it. It was Belle. "What are you doing here Belle?" Belle looked at him. "I wanted to check and see how you are. I was worried about you."
Gold shook his head. "I'm okay Belle. You don't need to bother yourself with my well being." Belle sighed. "Rumple, I meant what I said. I do still love you. But I just need some time. So much has happened these past few weeks."
Gold nodded, tears filling his eyes. "I love you so much Belle. But I think it's best that you stay away from me. I am noting more than a beast." Belle shook her head. "There is still a chance to change who you are. And I want to be there to help you."
Gold looked at her and nodded. Belle hugged him tightly. "I love you Rumple so much." Gold clutched her to him. "I love you too Belle so, so much." He cried into her shoulder. Emma had fallen asleep on Killian's lap.
He smiled and decided to head to bed. He carried her in and he closed his eyes with her in his arms, feeling so lucky that he could hold the woman he loved, the woman he wanted to marry in his arms. He nuzzled into her hair. "Good night darling. I love you so much." he closed his eyes.
