Ch21 - Breakfast pt2

It's taken a few years, and tons of reassurance; and after talking to both my mom and dad, I realised that my fear was perfectly normal; I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing to have another baby.

I knew that I had to let Killian know, then my parents; I couldn't help the nerves that followed, how am I supposed to tell Killian; with my parents a few feet away.

I guess can ask if I can use my old room. I let my gaze refocus after after a few minutes, my dad smiled at me, from his seat across the table.

I could see the warmth in his eyes, as I returned the smile. My gaze focused on my mom, who also smiled at me.

I tried to school my features, but it was too late; my mom looked at me, quirking an eyebrow in my direction before speaking.

"Are you alright Emma?"

I smiled, before speaking.

"Yeah mom, I'm fine; but I need a few minutes with Killian, there's something we need to talk about, can we use my old bedroom?"

She smiled at me, while nodding in understanding.

"Of course sweetie, go ahead; it's still your room"

I stood up, and waited for Killian to join me; before we made our way up to my old room. I smiled internally, as I spotted my old bed; I led him over to it and we sat down, I smiled softly as he placed his hand in mine and I placed my head on his shoulder.

How do you say the words 'I want to have a baby with you' without it being awkward?

I took a deep breath before speaking.

"Killian..."

I went to speak again, but before I could; Killian moved off the bed and crouched down in front of me. He smiled at me, before speaking.

"Emma love, you can tell me anything"

I smiled at him, taking another breath

"I know I was hesitant to bring this particular topic up, and we never really discussed it again; but after talking to my mom and dad, and how they had the same fear but somehow managed to push it aside. Because of that, I think I can do the same thing; because of you, you've been so understanding"

He smiled at me, before lifting my hand to place a soft kiss on the back of it. I looked at him before speaking again.

"You've been amazing Killian, so I guess what I'm trying to say is; I want to have a baby with you"

I turned slightly, and watched his expression change several times; I'm too late, he's changed his mind again; he doesn't want to have a baby with me.

I moved away slightly, trying not to let my fear overcome me again; I felt his hand tilt my chin up, once I was looking at him, he spoke.

"Emma love, I know this has been difficult for you; and it's why I suggested spending the morning with your parents yesterday, as I could tell you needed to talk to your mother. I can't wait to have a child with you..."

He paused briefly, I gazed up at him; he placed his hand on my cheek, leaning down slightly to kiss me softly. He pulled back slightly and resumed speaking, while keeping his hand on my face.

"I need you to listen to me love...I cannot stress this enough Emma I'll be the happiest man in all the realms when that happens"

I smiled, before wrapping my arms around him; we sat like that for a while. I then realised, it wouldn't happen right away; as I'm still on birth control.

I guess it would be better if I my mom, dad and Killian together; it would probably make it less awkward for all of us. We then headed back downstairs, my mom and dad were sitting at the table.

I guess it's time to tell my parents, knowing this might be an awkward conversation; we sat back down at the table and I snuggled into Killian's embrace.

I cleared my throat, my mom and dad looked at me. They sat down, I glanced up at Killian; who tightened his arm around my shoulders before I spoke.

"Mom, dad; there's something I need to talk to you about, it's nothing serious"

My dad glanced at Killian, I quirked an eyebrow at him; my mom mom picked up on it, and put her hand on my dads arm. After my dad settled back in his seat, I swallowed softly before speaking again.

"After talking to you both on separate occasions, I guess we're more alike than we realise; first of all, Killian and I have decided that we want to have a baby. But before that can happen, I'll need to stop taking my birth control; I've been on it since I had Henry. I'll need to be off it for a few weeks, as my body will need to adjust"

My mom looked at me again, she quirked an eyebrow at me, before speaking.

"What is birth control? And why are you on it?"

I smiled before explaining.

"Oh, it's a this world thing; it's a kind of medicine, it prevents me from having a baby. I decided to start taking it after I got out of jail, and before you ask no it doesn't hurt me"

She smiled again.

"Ok, I understand now; so you'll have to stop taking it and once you stop, you'll be able to have another child"

I nodded, thankfully this conversation wasn't as awkward as it could have been.

"Yeah mom, and before you ask; yes you and dad will be among the first people we tell, but I still need to talk to Henry. Not that he will object, it's just something people do; they tell their kids that they're going to have a sibling"

My mom nodded again, she then reached across to place her hand on mine. We all sat in a comfortable silence, knowing that this was one of the most important family adventures we were going on together.
