Killian sat by Emma's hospital bed as they waited for Dr. Whale. He held her hand and kissed it softly.
After waiting for two hours, Dr. Whale entered the room.
"It's about bloody time."
"My apologies, I was waiting on the results from Emma's blood test."
"Well then, why don't you enlighten us by telling us what's wrong with my Emma." Hook started to get irritated.
"Emma is absolutely fine."
"What do you mean she's fine? She passed out in the shower this morning," Killian snapped.
Dr. Whale ignored Killian's remark as he looked at Emma. "Emma, you're pregnant."
All of a sudden, Killian's face lit up as a big smile came across his face. "We're having a baby?" Killian looked at Emma.
Emma laughed out of pure joy. "We're having a baby."
He kissed her lips and pressed his forehead against hers as they smiled.
After Killian took Emma home and they walked into the house, Killian still smiling, lifted her up and spun her around. After he set her back down, he realized she might be still feeling nauseous. "My apologies, love."
"It's okay. I'm feeling a little better now."
"I'm glad." Killian kneeled down and pulled her shirt up to kiss her belly, lovingly. He put his arms around her, resting his head against her stomach. "Our baby is in there, Emma."
"I know," she said smiling as she placed her hand on his cheek.
He kissed her hand before he stood up again. "Emma, is it possible to love someone before they even exist."
"Yes." She giggled.
He wrapped his arms around her waste, kissed her and after he pulled his lips away, he whispered, "I love you so much, both of you," and gave her a passionate hug.
"I love you too, Killian, she said as they broke the hug. "Do you think we should tell everyone now?"
"I would say we wait until morning and have the night to ourselves."
"Yeah, you're right."
When they went to bed that night, neither of them could sleep, so they just talked. Killian sat up against the headboard while Emma laid her head in his lap, facing him. He caressed her cheek with his thumb as they talked about the baby.
"If the baby's a boy what names would you consider?" Emma asked him.
"The only name that really comes to mind is Liam, after my brother."
"Liam. I like that name. What about a name for a girl?"
"How about my most favorite name in the whole world... Emma?" He smiled.
"What about Abigale or Savannah?"
"You wand to name our daughter after a desert?"
She laughed. "Yeah, good point. We'll think of good baby names. We still have lots of time."
"Indeed we do, love." Killian looked into her eyes and grazed his thumb over her lips.
She smiled, took his hand into hers and kissed his knuckles.
He then scooped her into his arms and put his hands around her stomach. She leaned her head into his shoulder as he rested his head on hers and they soon fell asleep.
The next day, Emma called Regina to ask her, Robin and Henry to meet them at the loft, where her parents would be.
Emma and Killian showed up about the same time that Henry, Regina and Robin did. The five of them walked in as David and Mary Margerette were sitting at the kitchen table.
"Hey, what's going on?" David asked, concerned.
Killian put his arm around Emma before she spoke.
"Well, the reason Killian and I asked you all to meet us here is because we have some news."
"You're not calling off the wedding are you?" Regina asked.
"What? No, it's nothing like that. Actually, Killian and I..." She looked at Killian."
"... we're having a baby," Killian finished with a big smile on his face.
Everyone was astonished.
"That's wonderful!" Emma's mother stood up to hug her and Killian.
"That was fast. You two aren't messin' around are you?" Regina teased.
"I'm happy for the both of you." David got in hugs after Mary-Margerette.
"Congratulations," Robin shook Killian's hand and hugged him and Emma.
"Congratulations you guys. It'll be nice to have a little brother or sister." Henry took his turn for hugs after Robin.
"How far along are you? You can't be more than three weeks?" Regina asked.
"Actually, I am three weeks exactly."
"Wait a minute, please tell me my grand-baby wasn't conceived in the shower?" David said.
"That would be tough to say, it could have been a number of times-"
"Okay..." Emma interrupted. "I don't really think it matters how, the important thing is that we're having a baby, right?"
"Course, love," Killian said.
"The wedding is still next week, right?" Regina asked.
"Yes, Regina," Emma laughed. "But, needless to say, we'll be having the wedding in the evening.
The rest of the week dragged by slowly as Emma felt sick for most of the time.
"I don't think I can do this, Killian. I'm going end up throwing up all over my dress and it's going to be a disaster," Emma confessed to Hook a day before the wedding.
"Emma, if you're not feeling up for it, we don't have to get married tomorrow. We can postpone the wedding."
"No, I can't. My mother and Regina worked so hard to get everything ready in a month, I can't back out now. This whole week they did everything and I've just been laying around being sick. I don't even deserve this wedding." Emma was in tears now.
"I guess this is what I have to put up for the next eight months," he joked.
She started sobbing louder.
"Love, I'm only joking. Come here," he said as he put his arms around her so she could cry into his shoulder. "Hey, everything's going to be alright, sweetheart. We've made it through much worse than this." His body shuddered as he remembered everything he did as the Dark One and was amazed that they were both standing there together after everything.
He pulled away to look at her face as he put his hand and hook on her shoulders. "If we can make it to this place after everything we've been through, then we can bloody well get you down that aisle, Swan."
Emma nodded her head. "You're right. I'm sorry."
"Hey, no apologies, love." He wiped the a tear from her eye with his thumb. "I love you. And I love this baby," he said as he placed his hand on her stomach. "And I don't care if we get married today, tomorrow or ten years from now; I am always going to love you, both of you. And I am always going to be here. So, you can cry, you can vomit all over you dress, you can curse me using every name in the book but at the the end of the day tomorrow I'm still going to happily make you my wife."
Emma laughed as she sniffled. "I love you too."
The day of the wedding, Emma's stomach was in knots for more reasons than one. She was at the house with Regina and her mother, as she stood in front of the mirror with her wedding gown on and her hair in long, loose curls.
"Emma, words can't even describe how beautiful you look." Her mother said as she came into the bedroom, almost bursting into tears.
Regina walked in right behind Mary Margerette. "You really are the fairest in all the land in that wedding dress, Emma Swan." She smiled and handed her the bouquet of pink roses. "Are you ready to go?"
"Yeah, I'm ready."
The ceremony took place in a field they had filled with pink roses so that it resembled the most memorable moments shared between Emma and Killian before their darkest times.
As David took his daughter's arm in his and started to walk down the aisle, he said to her softly, "Emma, you look very beautiful."
"Thank you, Dad."
As she saw Killian on the other side, she smiled and she smiled happily and proudly. Before this moment, she thought she would feel too sick to be able to smile at her own wedding but everything changed when she saw this man standing there waiting for her.
He looked in absolute awe of her presence. His piercing, blue eyes were locked on hers as she approached him.
David kissed her check as he walked away from her.
As Archie stood in front of them and spoke, Emma and Killian barely listened to a word of it as they were caught up in one another's gaze, until he said, "Killian and Emma, you may now proceed with your vows."
"Emma Swan, my lovely Swan, I stand here today the happiest pirate to have ever existed. I stand here today, against all odds; witches, evil monsters, darkness. Everything you could imagine, we've conquered together. We've gone to other worlds, we've gone through time and even through hell and we made it back here on the other side. And no matter what happens from this point forward, I will always be by your side fighting not only with you, but for you. I'd give my life for you, Emma Swan... actually I have twice, but as stubborn as you are, you always manage to bring me back. And I'd give my life a million times over again just to see you smile because your smile is the one thing I live for. I used to live for the darkness but now I live for the light that guides me through the darkness. You are my light, both of you." He placed his hand her stomach." And I will spend the rest of my days making sure you shine."
Emma could barely contain the tears in eyes before she started her vows. "Killian Jones, as you know, I've spent most of my life as an orphan; never fitting in anywhere, never having a home to go to. And because of that, I've pushed people away, even the people I love. I was always afraid to admit when I found something good because I thought I would lose it. Because of you, I'm not afraid anymore. You've proven to me time and time again that I don't have to be afraid because I know that no matter what, I will always have a home to go to. When we were in Camelot, you promised me a home to come back to but the truth is, I found my home a long time ago. I found my home when I met you, even if I didn't know it at the time. It doesn't matter where we are; when I am with you, Killian Jones, I am home."
"And now the rings please," said Archie.
Killian took the ring Robin had been holding for him and slid the wedding ring on her finger.
Emma took Killian's ring from Regina and placed it on his finger.
"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss your bride."
"It's about bloody time." Killian smirked, grabbed Emma's waiste to pull her close and kissed her fervidly.
They broke the kiss before they proceeded down the aisle.
