7 WEEKS

She was only sixteen. She was sixteen and pregnant. Pregnant from Killian Jones. She didn't know when it happened, but it happened. Within a few months, she would be a mother. She had to tell Killian, but how ?

Killian was 19. They had a relationship since 2 months. Everything went really well. They truly loved each other. But were they ready to have a child already ? Emma was thinking about how she could tell Killian. But also about when. She was unsure about her future. Is she going to be a good mother ? Is Killian going to be a good father ? Does Killian want a child ? …

She was getting more nervous with every question. Finally, she ran out of the bathroom. "Emma ?" her mother asked. "Emma what's wrong ?"

"Nothing, just leave me alone." Emma answered.

"Emma, tell me. I'm your mother."

"Mom, just leave me alone. I need to think for a bit."

Emma ran upstairs to her bedroom. She locked her door and she let her fall on to her bed. She started to cry. After half an hour of crying, her mother knocked on the door.

"Emma, I know that you don't want to talk, but I also know that something is wrong. Just let me in and tell me."

Emma stood up and opened the door. Snow saw that her daughter was crying.

"Ooh, baby. What's wrong ?"

"First close the door please" When snow closed the door, Emma said : 'Come sit down please"

"What's wrong Emma ?"

"I don't know how to say this."

"Just say it, you can tell me anything"

"I am pregnant" Emma finally said after a few moments of silence.

"OK, this changes everything. But we'll figure it out."

"Are you serious ?"

"Yes I am. I'm your mother. Of course I'm serious. It will be difficult, but we'll get through it. Who's the father ?"

"Killian"

"Did you tell him already ?"

"No ?"

"Emma, you should tell him. He deserves to know."

"I know, but I don't know how to tell him."

"Do you want me to be by your side when you do?"

"Would you do that ?"

"Of course I would. Call Killian right now and tell him he has to come here as soon as possible"

"OK, give me a minute"

She took her phone and texted him.

5 minutes later, Killian arrived. He came as fast as he could and knocked on the door. When the door opened, he stepped inside and called for Emma.

"Upstairs!"

He ran upstairs towards Emma.

"Is everything alright, love ?"

"Everything's fine. Mom, can you excuse us for a minute ?"

"You sure ?"

"I'm really sure."

She left and Emma pointed Killian to sit next to her.

"Something's wrong, isn't it ?"

"Wrong is not the right word I think."

"Then what's going on ?"

"It's hard to tell. I'm not sure how to tell this, but you deserve to know."

"Emma, just tell me."

"I'm pregnant."

"You're what ?"

"I am pregnant Killian. You understood right."

"How did that happen ?"

"I think that you and I both know that well enough", she laughed.

"Emma, you know what I mean. I thought we were safe every time ?"

"We were, but you never are 100% safe."

"How far are you ?"

"7 weeks."

"Do you want to keep it ?"

"I do, but do you want to be a father ? If you don't want it, don't worry. I'll raise it alone but I want him or her to at least know who his father is."

"Emma, it would be my pleasure to be the father. And be in his life every moment.'

"You're 19, I under … Wait, what did you just say ?"

"I want to have this baby together with you. We'll raise him or her together."

"Did you just say ?"

"Yes, love. I did."

He brought her face closer to his' and pulled her into a long, sweet kiss until Mary Margaret opened the door.

"Ooh, I'm sorry. I didn't meant to interrupt you two. I'll go."

"It's ok mom. We just decided that we want to keep the baby and raise him or her together."

"That's great news."

"But can you keep it a secret a little while longer please ? I don't want everyone to know it and ask questions yet."

"I will, but you're going to have to tell them soon. Or in a few weeks, they'll figure it out themselves."

"I know. Can you leave us alone for a while ?"

" No need", Killian said, "I was planning to go back to my ship. And I was also planning to take you daughter with me."

"Ooh, okay. I'll see you guys later then. Have a fun afternoon."

Killian stood up and walked towards the door. Emma followed him and together they walked to Killian's ship. Hand in hand. On his ship, they went downstairs.

"Finally alone", Killian said.

"Wherefore ?"

"Everything on its time."

Killian started kissing Emma's shoulder and she let her body melt in to his. Together they had the best afternoon ever.


At 6pm, they decided to get dinner at Granny's. They walked in and took a seat at the back. Ruby walked toward them and said: "You guys are here with 2 persons, but I can smell 3. How's that possible ?"

"Shit, I forgot that you smell everything. But you're right. We are here with 3 persons."

"But how is that possible ?"

"Well, don't you get it ?" Killian said. "She's pregnant."

"No way ! You are kidding me ?"

"We're not Ruby. I am pregnant. Now, can we order something ? I'm pretty hungry."

"Yeah, sure. What can I get you ?"

"2 burgers and 2 portions of onion rings please."

"Coming."

They ate their food and went back to Killian's ship. They talked and laughed the whole evening. They sat on the bed.


It was late already and Emma was really tired. She didn't want to walk all the way to her home so she decided to stay with Killian. He lived on the ship that once was his fathers. But after he died, it became his. His older brother, Liam, left the ship when he was 18.

So Emma and Killian were going to sleep together for the first time ever. They had tried to several times, but every time Emma's mother called to get back home. But this time, they wouldn't have to worry about that cause they both forgot their phone at Emma's parents house.

Emma felt asleep quickly, but Killian couldn't sleep so he was thinking about this child. Was he going to be a good father ? What are the other people going to say ? What if it isn't like he expected it to be ? What if Emma doesn't want to be with him anymore and is he going to see his child yet if that happens ? He couldn't stop thinking about it and finally got out of bed and walked around for a while. He accidently woke Emma up.

"What's wrong Killian ?" she said half asleep.

"Nothing. Just walking around for a while and thinking about if I'm going to be a good father and how other people are going react and all that stuff."

"Ooh, Killian. I asked that to myself many times in those past few hours. But you know what ? I don't want to think about that right now. It's too early to think about that yet."

"So you say that I don't have to worry about that ?"

"Exactly. Everything will turn out just fine. Now, come back to bed."

"Aye, love."

He got back into bed and he wrapped his arm around Emma. They both quickly fell asleep not caring about anything else then each other and their unborn child.
