Time Period: A Flashback

Place: The Charmings' Castle

Event: The day after Spirit's birth

Princess Emma's p.o.v

I am knocking on death's door. Godforbid I may die soon. Distraught, Killian rushes to my bedside.

He kisses my hand and squeezes it very tightly. He ignores the judgemental stares of my parents

and Henry. Killian doesn't care that my servant Eloise has a crush on him. "Your mom sent me

message about your condition. You gave birth in the bathtub last night. The baby was six weeks

early" he informs me. "Everything is true" I reaffirm. "I am sorry that I couldn't be there for you" he

apologizes. "I forgive you" I admit wholeheartedly. Upon my request, Eloise allows Killian to hold

Spirit. He is over the moon about our newborn daughter.

Emma's p.o.v

We are having fun in the sun, but our hearts are still bleeding crimson. Drifting closer and yet

farther away: an almost kiss, hug, and I love you. You wish you had a dime for my thoughts,

but she has no time even in her prime.
