"Don't leave me ever again," Anna mumbled into her sister's shoulder. Emma couldn't help the smile that crossed her face when she saw Elsa's arms tighten around her sister. After everything they'd gone through, they finally had each other again.

And a reindeer. And an ice dealer husband slash brother in law.

But who was she, the daughter of Prince Charming and Snow White, to judge?

Though the cold brought on by Elsa's despair evaporated surprisingly quickly after Anna's reappearance, a new breeze warmed by the sun flew off the coast, lifting up the tips of her hair and filling her lungs with sweet sea air that only the water could.

The sea and a certain leather-clad man, she should say.

"A sight to warm a frozen heart," a voice drawled upwind, carried next to the fragments of sea salt and sunshine. "Wouldn't you agree, love?"

Emma scoffed and faced the pirate who'd managed to thaw her own heart. "If you don;t knock that smug look, I'll knock it off for you," she threatened, no malice behind the words.

"I think I'd like that," he murmured, his token smirk playing at his lips.

She giggled, a practice she was still getting used to, before she leaned into him and grabbed the lapels of his new jacket. "I do love a challenge," she countered, twisting his long-ago uttered words in a much sweeter way.

It may have been coincidence, or it may have been her magic coming back to life, sparked by the fluttering of her heart, but Emma could've sworn that the slight breeze around the marina picked up when their lips touched .Tongue lashed against tongue as the wind swirled around them,carrying away the frigidity of loneliness and replacing it with the heat of love.

Killian chuckled into her kiss, his chest rising into hers. He pulled away only enough to lock gazes. "So what's your next adventure?" he asked.

Emma smiled and, without hesitation, leaned into him again. "Don't you mean our next adventure?"

a/n: zephyr- a breeze from the west, a gentle breeze. a couple of you suggested it, one of you (im sorry, i dont remember which one) saying that it could signify a new beginning. it was an excellent idea.

AND WITH THAT, THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

or at least we hope they do. WHICH WE WILL FIND OUT TOMORROW. HOORAYYYYYYYY.
