When youre broken

When you're broken in a million little pieces
And you're tryin' but you can't hold on anymore
Every tear falls down for a reason
Don't you stop believing in your self
When you're broken


"Marry me Killian."

Killian looked to her wondering if he heard her right. His Emma, the one person he loved more than life itself was asking him to marry her? He grinned as his hand moved through her hair and pulled her to him as he kissed her.

"Yes. Gods above love yes." He said smiling as he deepened the kiss more both of them grinning. Emma laughed as she hugged him close, grinning. Killian smiled as he ran his hand through her hair watching her. "Although I was going to ask you." He said grinning as he got out of the bed and headed over to his suitcase, kneeling down. Emma watched him from the bed grinning when he came back to her.

"I bought this a few weeks ago, I didn't know when j was going to ask you but I knew I wanted to ask soon." He said as he pulled her onto his lap and opened the ring box; inside laid a beautiful ring that Emma knew was perfect for her. He lifted the ring and slipped it onto her finger smiling as she kissed him.

"It's beautiful." She told him as she looked down at her hand, Killian shifting them to lay back down. Emma cuddled close to him smiling as they just enjoyed the moment. Emma sat up and grabbed her phone grinning as she pressed call, ignoring the confused look on Killian's face.

"Mom? Sorry, I know it's late. No, no we are okay, everything is okay." Emma said as she rested back against Killian. "I promise we are okay. No there is a reason I'm calling. When we get back to town tomorrow night do you want to maybe do dinner? Great! I know there is something I want to talk to you about but its okay for now." Emma said smiling. Killian laughed as he kissed her left hand, before getting up to tend to Ashton. Emma hung up with her mom and rested back watching as Killian changed Ashton, smiling.

"You really are a great dad Kill, she adores you." Emma said feeling bad for her words earlier. Killian smiled as he laid Ashton back down, washing his hands quickly before he rejoined Emma in bed.

"Love, don't feel upset. You can get upset, get mad, and yell at me. But know that at the end of the day, I'm going to be right here and love you no matter what. I'm going to take care of my hours so I can be home with you and Ash more, Whale has been looking in to hiring more help, he and Ruby really want to be able to take the time off when they are married for the honey moon and it doesn't look that way right now." Killian said as he shifted to look to her. Emma nodded as she rested her head on his chest kissing the spot above his heart softly.

"It would be nice to have you home more. What would your hours be?" She asked curiously as she closed her eyes.

"I'm not sure until we hire someone but it looks like it could be 6 to 2 or 8 to 3." He said as he rubbed her back. Emma smiled as she thought about it. It would mean more time with Killian and if she was teaching during the day, they would be working almost the same hours. He kissed her head softly before she fell asleep, Killian not long behind her.

Walking up the next morning, Emma smiled as she stretched out, rubbing her face before stopping. The cool metal of her hand made her smile as she sat up and looked over her fiancé before leaning down to kiss him. It didn't take long for him to wake up, Killian's hand moving through her hair.

"Good morning my love." Killian said smiling as he pulled back.

"Good morning. Any chance we can get on the road soon? After showers and food of course?" Emma asked grinning. Killian knew she was just as excited to get home and tell their friends as he was. Nodding he kissed her again, both of them letting it linger longer than needed.

"You go shower. I'll get ash dressed and order something for breakfast from room service." He told her smiling as he got up; stretching before he picked up Ash and kissed her head, loving the small smile he got from her. Emma watched them for a moment before she headed out of the main room and in to the bathroom.

Killian changed and dressed Ashton in no time, loving the way she watched him as he moved about the room. He placed and order for breakfast, donuts and coffee, just as Emma was coming out of the room. He kissed her as he headed to the bathroom starting his shower. Emma had just finished putting on jeans when she heard the door, She grabbed Killian's shirt from the floor and pulled it on, thanking the girl for the to go cups and bag. Killian came out and dressed quickly smiling as he took a coffee from her.

"You are a speed demon. Ready to go home and tell everyone about the ring?" He asked grinning as he took a drink of the coffee, setting it down to make sure their stuff was packed. Emma grinned with a shrug as she sat down on the bed, picking up Ashton.

"Maybe. Or maybe I just miss being at home." She teased as she got Ashton in to the car seat, stealing a bit of Killian's donut. Together they worked on getting everything packed up, Killian eating more of the donuts than he planned. As they drove back home, Emma sat up front holding Killian's hand, glancing back to making sure Ashton was okay. Tamara informed them that Ashton was doing great and in the top percentiles for her age. It helped calm Emma of course but she knew she would still worry.

Arrive back at the apartment; Emma looked to Killian before she kissed him softly.

"I'll get her up and into bed if you want to run to the store and get food?" She suggested smiling. Killian pretended to think it over as he kissed her again.

"Hmm I don't know. I mean we could go upstairs and celebrate our engagement." He suggested with a smirk as he ran his hand down her back, kissing her again. Emma groaned in to the kiss as she pressed closer to him, letting the kiss deepen for a few moments before she pulled back beyond breathless.

"Mom, David, Liam, Elsa, and Mary Margaret are coming over tonight. After they leave I promise we can enjoy our engagement." She told him with a smirk before she got out and got Ashton out, heading up to the apartment. She glanced over her shoulder at him with a smirk before she headed up stairs smiling. Emma got Ash into her swing and smiled as she started getting the apartment picked up. On the way home she texted Elsa and Mary Margaret, asking them to join them for dinner, and to let the boys know. Emma was nervous to tell everyone about her engagement to Killian but she knew it was perfect. She was in love with Killian and couldn't wait to be his wife.

Emma had just finished cleaning up the kitchen when she heard the door open and Killian came in, their overnight night bags in one hand and the grocery bags in the other. Emma smiled as she moved to help him, setting the bags on the counter before she kissed him softly.

"Liam said he will be over around 5, and David said he would be here not long after that." Emma told him as she started helping him cook. They moved throughout the room, laughing and teasing each other, Emma shaking her head as his teasing became a little more seductive than she could take. She wanted him, it had been a while since they had sex and now she wanted him again. With a small laugh she excused herself to get Ashton, a small cry coming from her.

Killian turned, smiling as he saw Emma holding Ashton close, unable to look away. He loved the way Emma was with Ashton, the way she was with him. He turned back to focus on the food, excited to tell their family about their engagement.

Emma carried Ashton to her room and changed her diaper, smiling as she sang and worked on changing her in to a clean outfit, one that Elsa and Mary Margaret had given her. As she carried her back to the living room, she heard the door and looked to Killian and the clock.

"It's not even 5?" She said curiously as she shifted Ash in her arms before she headed to open the door, smiling when she saw Liam there, taking Ashton from her.

"I know I'm early, but I couldn't help it. I wanted to see my niece. I know how much she has missed me." He said with a laugh as he headed to the living room and sat back on the couch, talking with Ashton. Emma laughed, shutting the door, before she headed to the kitchen, her hand on Killian's hip as she kissed him a few times. They both looked to her ring before Killian turned it around, the diamond facing her palm for the time being.

"How's working going?" Emma asked as she headed back to the living room, handing Liam a beer before she sat down in the recliner.

"Same old same old. I really am enjoying teaching." He said as he started making faces as Ashton, laughing as he did.

"Good. You and Elsa doing good?" She asked curiously, noticing that he was holding something in.

"Yes. No. I don't know." He told her as he shifted and set ash in her swing, before he looked back to Emma. Killian closed the oven door and moved in to the room sitting beside his brother.

"What's going on?" He asked curiously as he looked to Emma before looking back to his brother, both seemed concerned about Liam.

"I asked her if she would ever want to marry me. We were laying in bed one night, talking about how ruby and Whales wedding was soon and if I was going to be her date, and I said yes. So then the conversation shifted to if someday she would want to marry me." Liam paused as he rubbed his face.

"Well? What did she say?" Emma asked as she moved and sat down on the coffee table in front of him.

"She told me no. she isn't the marrying type and wants nothing to do with marriage ever. When I asked why she just shook her head and told me she wouldn't marry me, but did tell me that she wanted to be with me, that nothing would change. We haven't really talked much lately. We have but not like before." He told them as Emma shook her head. That didn't seem like her best friend. She bit her lip looking to Killian before excusing herself to the kitchen.

"Liam I'm sorry. Maybe she will change her mind? You never know." Killian offered to his brother before Liam shrugged before asking Killian about work, letting the conversation shift. Emma checked on dinner before she set at the counter and grabbed her phone opening her texts, pressing Elsa's name.

"What is this I hear about you saying you wont ever marry?"

"Em please don't. I don't want to talk about this before I come over."

"You were head over heels in love with him and telling me you wanted to marry him and now you wont? What have I missed?"

"Everything Emma. Suddenly life for you became Killian and Ashton and I'm lucky if I can see you for 5 minutes. YOU miss a lot when you don't care to have me around. I'm sorry I won't be at dinner tonight. I have to work."

"Els… I'm sorry. I've been trying my best to juggle everything but it's hard. I promise ill make time for you. Please come tonight."

"Els please? I'm sorry."

Emma set her phone down and started crying softly, wondering what happened to her best friend. Elsa had always wanted to get married some day. They would talk about what kind of man they wanted, Killian and Liam were far from the type they listed as teenagers. Emma wiped her face as she heard the door, Killian calling out he would get it as Emma headed to the bathroom the wash her face.

"Em? Your family is here." Killian called out to her as he walked down the hall way, knocking on the bathroom door. "Em?"

"Elsa isn't coming; I don't even think we are friends anymore." Emma said with tears in her eyes as she opened the door. Killian pulled her in to a hug kissing her head. "I'm so stupid. I haven't talked to her too much lately, with Ash, and school. I messed up." She said shaking her head as she pressed her face into his shoulder.

"Em, love, its going t be okay. She will come around." Killian said as he rubbed her back keeping her to him. "Let's get through dinner, tell everyone our great news, then we can figure out what to do about Elsa." He said giving her a soft kiss, smiling when she nodded.

"Let's do this." She said softly, wiping her face dry before following him to the kitchen. They got dinner ready, Emma checking her phone as they placed the food on to the table. Killian called everyone in, Emma hugging her mom and sister in law before they all sat down.

"Killian and I want to thank you all for coming for dinner. Before we eat we have something we want to tell you guys." She said smiling, Standing to join Killian. Ruth shook her head frowning.

"Please lord; do not tell me you are pregnant." She said, earning a laugh from everyone. Emma shook her head, opening her mouth to speak before stopping when the front door opened, Elsa walking in.

"Sorry I'm late. I had a stupid problem to get through. Am I still invited?" She asked before she headed to Emma, hugging her tight. "I'm sorry. I overreacted and was being stupid." She said as she gave Emma a smile.

"I'm sorry too. I promise to try and be a better fri- a better sister." She said hugging her again before Elsa sat down beside Liam, kissing his cheek and telling him she was sorry, they had to talk later.

"Alright what is the news? Are you pregnant?" David asked a smirk on his face. Emma laughed as she looked to Killian before lifting her hand, grinning as she showed off her ring. Ruth, Elsa, and Mary laughed as they pulled her in to a hug, looking over her ring. David and Liam laughed as they hugged Killian, before David looked to his sister.

"I'm surprised it took him this long!" David said as he hugged his sister close, kissing her head. She laughed and hugged him close, smiling. They all sat down and ate, talking about the upcoming wedding before David smiled and looked to Mary before he cleared his through.

"I know we are celebrating Emma and Killian right now but there is something I need to tell you guys and I know it's going to take the light off you guys but I hope you are okay with that?" David asked before Killian nodded smiling. David looked to Mary before looking to the table of his family, grinning.

"We are having a baby!" Mary said with a grin as she pulled up the sonogram off her phone, sharing it around the table. Emma grinned as she looked to her brother and sister in law before looking to the picture.

"No way! I'm going to be an aunty!" She said with a laugh as she stood and moved to hug Mary, smiling. The rest of the night was spent laughing and talking, Emma avoiding questions about planning the wedding, not wanting to start planning it just yet.


Emma sat on the couch, Ashton laying in her crib in her bedroom, and Killian at a meeting with Whale about hiring more staff. She was trying to focus on homework but it wasn't working. She was still a head on her work but that wasn't going to stop her from trying to get more done. Not when she was actually enjoying herself for a change. She used to hate going to school but now, now she was excited and couldn't wait to graduate and start working. She decided being a preschool teacher was something she couldn't wait to do. Setting her lap top down, she got up and headed to the kitchen, opening the fridge with a frown. She needed to go food shopping but with Ash sleeping, she would have to wait or text Killian to pick up a few things or at least something for dinner. The door opened and Emma turned smiling when she saw Elsa.

"Hey blondie! Long time no see." She teased as she hugged her best friend before she led her to the living room.

"I was just here a few nights ago smart ass." She teased as they sat down, both resting back and getting comfortable.

"True. But still." Emma said laughing. "Wanna talk about the whole no marriage thing?" She asked softly wondering if she was up for talking about it yet.

"No but I should. I don't even know where to start. But a few months ago Anna called me. Her and Hans are getting a divorce and she's upset. They haven't even been married long, maybe a few weeks, so I told her I'd help her. Sent her the money for a lawyer, Kristoff something or other. So Hans got what he wanted and Anna got the house here and the chance to rebuild her life. I don't want a marriage that will be broken within a few weeks. Or worse one where the perfect family front is an act that ends up breaking the family apart." Elsa said of her own family. Emma wrapped her arms around Elsa frowning.

"I didn't know about Anna and Hans. I feel like the worse person right now. I should have known." Emma said as she pulled back from the hug.

"She didn't tell anyone. Hans didn't want people to know they were married." Elsa said with a shrug. "I tried to get her to tell us, I mean we are her closest friends but she wouldn't. Turns out he only married her so his grandfather would give him his trust fund. Though Anna said it was revoked since the marriage never lasted a full year." Elsa laughed at the thought before she frowned. "Emma I don't want that with Liam. If I'm with him, I want it to be forever. But I can't risk it with marriage." Elsa said shaking her head.

"Els, you guys wouldn't be that way. The Jones men are strong in their love trust me. Killian has stuck by me through a pregnancy and when I would scream at him upset. He still loves me, holds me close and promises he is here for me." Emma told her. "Liam wouldn't leave you or let the love die out. The last what 6 or 7 months he seems to do anything for you? I can't force you to change your idea on marriage, but I love you and I love Liam. I hope you guys can work through this." She said softly. Elsa sat there quietly, not saying a word before she groaned softly.

"I fucked up didn't I?" Elsa said before she looked to Emma. "I have to go. I promise I'll see you soon. Thank you!" Elsa said before she left the apartment, Emma laughing. Getting up she headed to the nursery checking in on Ashton, grinning when she saw her awake.

"Hi princess. You just missed Aunty Elsa. Hopefully she and Uncle Liam make up. How about we get your changed and go shopping?" She asked, grinning as Ashton coo'ed at her. After changing and dressing her, Emma got her in the car seat before she made a quick list, texting Killian to see if he needed anything, laughing at his reply of just her and maybe some whipped cream.

"Your daddy is a nut. But a great man. You are lucky to have him." She told Ash as she carried her down to the car, making sure she had her wallet and keys. The drive to the store didn't take too long and as they walked down the aisles, Emma smiled as people noticed her ring. She had texted the girls that morning and let them know laughing as Regina and Ruby both replied that they called it.

Emma loaded the groceries in to the car, Ashton already buckled in and asleep. Emma made sure everything was in and put the cart away, frowning when her phone rang, though smiling as she saw Killian on the screen.

"What are you wearing?" She asked with a smirk as she got back in to the truck.

"Well love this is a new one. Just a pair of jeans. Nothing else at all." He said with a laugh. Emma laughed shaking her head.

"I love when you just wear jeans. That fit hairy chest all out for me to see. Damn." Emma said with a smirk, a groan filling her ear.

"Love you are killing me here." He told her though Emma could hear the smirk on his face. "Though later if you want to continue this I would be happy too." He said with a laugh.

"I take it you have a reason you are calling, other than phone sex." Emma said as she turned the car on, making sure the windows were up as it started to rain.

"I'm heading home now, Are you heading home from the store?" He asked as Emma nodded.

"Yup. Just finished shopping, if you beat me home wanna meet me because ill need help with the bags and Ash." She said as she turned the speaker on and set her phone down before she started to drive.

"Gladly love. I ordered dinner tonight, though after this I feel like we should cook more. I love having you in the kitchen helping me." He said smiling, Emma grinning.

"Sounds like a perfect plan to me. I can plan out some meals." She told him as she pulled up next to his car, hanging up before she got out.

"I love when you go all housewife on me." He teased her kissing her, laughing as she pulled back.

"Well get used to it. Help with the bags while I get Ash inside? I don't want her out here when the rain picks up more." Emma said as she kissed him once more before she lifted Ashton's car seat and headed inside, smiling as she heard him whistle at her, shaking her head.

Emma got Ash comfy in her swing before she turned and started the fireplace, wanting to get it warm. Seeing Killian come in with all the bags and the diaper bag made her laugh.

"I was coming down to help you." She told him with a shake of her head, closing the front door. He shrugged and kissed her cheek as she joined in him in the kitchen.

"It wasn't any trouble love. I didn't want you to go through the rain and get sick." He told her smiling as they worked on un-bagging everything and putting it away.

"How did your meeting go?" She asked him as she filled the kettle and put it on the stove before she moved to sit down at the counter.

"Good. Whale and I agree to hire two more and worked out what the schedule would be." He told her as he grabbed a notepad out of the draw and looked for a pen.

"What would yours be?" She asked curiously as she watched him sit beside her.

"8 to 4, with lunch at 12. It will be great for when you are teaching because our hours will almost be the same. Plus I can be home with Ash and you more." He told her smiling. He handed Emma the pen and they worked out a plan for dinner the next few nights.

"I love that. We would love having you home with us." She told him as she got up and poured some water in to the mug before adding the tea bag, making one for Killian as well. Killian's phone rang, pulling his attention away from their conversation. Emma watched him leave and carried her tea to the living room, smiling as she sat down on the couch.

She rested back and worked on replying to some of the texts from the girls, laughing over Ruby and Regina's conversation about dresses, and colors Regina thought looked bad on herself. As Killian came back in to the room, Emma smiled setting her phone aside.

"Liam and Elsa made up. Oh and our offer on the house went through. Looks like we will be moving soon!" He said as he pulled her in to his lap kissing her soundly. Emma grinned against his lips kissing him roughly, her hands in his hair.

"I can't wait to move!" Emma said smiling against his lips as he kissed her again.


"Emma calm down! Your dad will love the inn and he won't be upset that he can't stay here with us. He already told you he understands." Killian told her as she paced the living room for the tenth time. James was on his way with his wife, their kids opting to stay home for this meeting. Emma nodded as she took a deep breath and moved to the couch sitting down on his lap.

"Thanks for putting up with me even though I'm insane." She said as she kissed him softly.

"Eh no worries, I love you either way." He told her smiling kissing her again. The knock on the door made them pull apart and Emma take a deep breath. She stood up and held Killian's hand as they headed to the door, smiling as they opened it and saw James and Rose on the other side. James hugged Emma before shaking Killian's hand, Rose holding her hand out to Emma and then Killian.

"Come on in. Were you able to check in to the Inn alright?" Killian asked as they headed to the living room. James nodded as they sat on the couch, Emma and Killian on the love seat.

"Yes we were. It's such a great place." James said smiling as he sat back. "This whole town is amazing. I can see why you both live here." He told them smiling.

"It is a great place. It's like a large family. Plus it will be great to be able to move into to our house soon." Emma said with a smile.

"A house? Well that's nice." Rose said with a smirk on her face. Emma gave Killian's hand a squeeze knowing it would be a long weekend with her.

"It really is. We can't wait to start our life together and raise Ashton in a house. Plus it's near Emma's mom and brother and my brother so it will be great." Killian said giving Rose a smile, watching her roll her eyes.

"Your life together? I take it you asked her to marry you?" James as with a grin, looking to them. Emma smiled with a nod as she held up her hand showing off her ring.

"He did. The night after our dinner." Emma said smiling as she looked to Killian, kissing his chin softly.

"That great! I'm glad he did. I told him he would be stupid if he didn't." James said with a laugh shaking his head. Rose let out a sigh as she looked to them.

"Did I do something to upset you? I know it's our first time meeting but I don't know if I offended you or upset you or something. I really don't want us to get off on the wrong foot." Emma said to Rose as she looked to her. Rose looked to Emma, a pointed look before she nodded.

"You only came after James for his money. You don't want a dad in your life; you are just pretending you do for money." Rose said as James looked to her before shaking his head.

"Rose knock it off. We talked about it." James told her. He went to apologize to Emma but she shook her head.

"All my life, I wondered what it would be like if one of my parents wanted me. I wasn't adopted until I was 10; suddenly I was loved and wanted around. Then I find 3 letters written before I was born, about as far along as I was with Ashton. One parent wanted nothing to do with me, said I as better off without them. My own grandmother told me I wasn't good enough to keep. Then after I had Ashton, I found the letter from my dad, from James. I had brought it home and forgot. I read it and cried because I was wanted. My dad wanted me. I was scared to reach out to him but I did because I had to know if I was actually wanted still. Finding out that I was, I had to meet him. I didn't want the money in the account, it's all still there you can have it back. I don't want your money; I just wanted to get to know my dad." Emma told Rose, her head turning towards Ashton's room when she heard her cry, "Excuse me." She said with tears in her eyes she left the room.

"Rose I told you this isn't for money. This is my daughter and you have to respect that." James told Rose as he looked to Killian. "I'm so sorry, I hope this doesn't ruin the weekend." He said to him. Killian gave a nod giving them both a smile.

"Emma won't give up so easily. She will still want to have you meet her mom and brother. But Rose word of advice, you do not go after my family while in my home. I won't stand for it." He told her with a pointed look of his own. James held a smirk off his face as he stood up.

"We will let you guys have some space. We will meet you at breakfast unless Emma changes her mind. I hope to see you guys. Oh and Killian, please let Emma know that money is all hers." James said as Killian led them to the door.

"We will be there. It's nice seeing you again sir, and I promise I will. And Rose it's nice to meet you." He told her with a sweet smile, watching them leave. Closing the door, he headed towards Ashton's room, smiling when he saw Emma in the rocking chair, holding Ashton close to her.

"I don't want his money; I just wanted to meet my dad." Emma said softly, her eyes on the window as Killian rested on the door frame.

"I know love. He knows that. We will make her know that too." Killian said as he moved to kiss her head. Emma looked up to him with a tear stained face. Killian's heart broke as he wiped her face kissing her again.

"I love you." She told him as she stood up moving in to his arms. He kissed her head as he held her close, kissing Ash's head as well.

"I love you too." He told her smiling as he kept them close.


The last 3 weeks had almost been hell for Emma, The move in to the house, starting classes on campus, Killian's new schedule, and a sick baby. Emma was almost glad for a break at school and a chance to spend time with Ashton and Killian.

"Whale, I know the wedding is in 2 weeks but come one, I have been on call for the last 5 nights on top of working my schedules hours. I barely see Emma and Ashton. Please? Why can't you call August or Lily? They can cover you for the day." Killian said as he rolled on to his back, Emma started to wake during the call.

"Fine. I guess you can explain to Emma why I have to cancel again. Oh and another question, why is it everyone gets time off except for the Doctor with a child? Yeah doesn't make sense does it." Killian snapped before he hung up and tossed the phone on to the bed as Killian ran a hand down his face. Emma shifted and rested her head on his chest kissing above his heart a few times.

"It's okay, Ash and I will be here when you get home." She told him as she kissed him again.

"I just don't get it. August gets time off whenever he asks, which I don't understand. And Lily seems to only work a few days a week and barely a full shift." He said with a sigh as he sat up, Emma watching him. She was tired of him coming home over worked and knew that she needed to talk to Whale about it soon. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't go off on you." He told her as he dressed. Emma stood up and kissed him helping him with his tie.

"Kill, I love you. It's all okay. You handle me with my crazy; I can take your crazy." She said with a grin. Emma headed to the kitchen and made him something to eat, watching as he grabbed it with a kiss and promised he would be home before dinner. Once he was gone Emma closed her eyes shaking her head.

Grabbing her phone she pressed Whales number and called him, waiting for him to answer.

"Emma I can explain." He said as he answered.

"I don't know if you can. What the hell Whale? He hasn't had a day off in weeks, he's tired and none of the others seem to step up and help out." She said as she moved down stairs and sat down on the couch, the baby monitor sitting on the table.

"Emma, I tried August and Lily but they had plans and I couldn't.. oh fuck. I'm sorry Em." Whale said to Emma.

"Explain that to me. August I can understand since his dad is not doing too well, but Lily? She is single, new in town and gets more time off than Killian. He's tired Whale. It's the first time we have both had a day off." She told him, frowning. She could hear Ruby in the back ground on the phone.

"Em he's going to fix it and call you back. Don't worry, I've already had the whole, you're a dumbass and you won't get any until you solve this talk with him. Give Ash kisses for me." Ruby said, Emma laughing before thanking her and hanging up. Emma knew it was still early and Ash would sleep for a little longer, meaning she could get all the cleaning done.

As she finished the kitchen she heard the front door and glanced down the hall smiling as she saw Killian standing there.

"Lily was called in to work, her plans you ask? The beach. Whale gave her a warning, told her she needs to start working her full shift and schedule. I'm off for the weekend and Monday. You are brilliant love." He told her as he kissed her smiling. Emma grinned and held him close watching him for a moment.

"I'm glad he was able to fix it. You are far too over worked. You get to relax too. Now, go take a long hot shower and then we can have a family day." She told him before kissing her. Killian smirked against her lips, his hands moving down her back slowly to rest on her hips holding her closer to him. The kiss deepened and Killian moved them, pressing against her as she rested against the wall.

"Join me in the shower?" He asked with a smirk as he moved his lips down her jaw and neck, his hand sliding under her shirt, pushing it up slowly. Emma let a small moan out as she nodded, bringing his face back to hers and kissing him.

"Lets go shower." She said almost breathless before ducking under his arms and heading up stairs, tossing her shirt down at him, laughing as it landed on him. Killian smirked before he chased after her.
