"Killian, you need to lighten up. Emma wouldn't like it if you arrived with that face on." Robin told Killian, who was getting ready by his dresser in his Captain Quarters for the ceremony. "Bloody Hell, how am I supposed to lighten up if I'm going to a wedding, where that ass is going to take my Swan as his wife?" he asks, his voice filled with pain. Robin exhales, shaking his head. "You need to show her that you still care. You're both still friends, you know." he informs. Killian curses, turning away from him. Robin was right, he should be happy for her. After all, she was marrying the father of her son. But he isn't. It's impossible. He had loved Emma, and he still did. He loved how stubborn she was, loved how she always rolled her eyes at him. He loved their easy banter. He loved how beautiful she was, how she didn't quite realise it. He had also grown fond of the lad. He was just like his mother. He loved taking him out on The Jolly Roger, teaching him how to sail and navigate the stars. He had always hoped that they would be together forever, just a small family with the two of them. He wouldn't mind another child though, a little boy or girl, running around their house or apartment by the sea. He or she would have her golden locks and his blue eyes, or her piercing, emerald green eyes and his dark hair. He felt home with Emma. He didn't know what he would do without her. She was his anchor, and she was responsible for his renowned goodness. "Look, at least be grateful that you know the guy Emma is getting married to. This is Baelfire we're talking about. You took care of him all those years ago. He will surely take care of Emma." Killian thought about it. He did have a point, but Baelfire, or Neal, as they call him now, left her in prison, and he couldn't quite forgive him for that. He was the reason Emma had those sky high walls up all the time. Killian knew he was the first man since Bae who was able to get Emma to open up to him, and he was very grateful. Killian sighed and turned to face Robin. "You're right mate, about everything." Both men smiled sadly, Killian because of his heart breaking situation, and Robin feeling bad for him. "C'mon Robin, we have a wedding to get to." As they walked off The Jolly Roger, Robin clapped Killian on his back. Here it goes... Thought Killian, as he approached the beach, where Emma and Neal's wedding was being held.

"Emma, stop pacing around, your hair is going to go all wonky!" said Ruby, fixing her own hair. Emma couldn't stop though. Why did I agree to do this? thought Emma. She put up her hand, looking at the engagement ring from Neal, her soon to be wedding ring. It was really pretty, she had to admit, but it wasn't her style. The band was golden, and it had three, medium sized pink diamonds on it. "Hey Emma, sit down, or else you're going to start sweating and your makeup will run." said Ashley, aka Cinderella. As Emma sat down, Ashley touched up Emma's makeup. Would I be this nervous if I was marrying Killian? Emma thought. She shook her head. Those were dangerous thoughts. She was marrying Neal, her teenage 'sweetheart', her Baby Daddy. She couldn't distract herself with Killian. She couldn't think of his unfairly handsome face. Oh, and his enchanting sea blue eyes. Oh God, she was still thinking about him. Emma was so wrapped up with her thoughts, that she didn't hear the knock on the door. Ruby went over to the door and said playfully "Neal, for the last time, its bad luck to see the bride before the wedding!" She heard the person outside the room clear their voice. "If that isn't Neal, who would it be?" Ruby mumbled to herself. "Actually love, it's Killian. Is it okay to come in?" Oh crap, thought Emma. What was he doing here? Ruby opened the door, revealing the one and only, devilishly handsome, Killian Jones.
