14 WEEKS

Emma's belly was clearly visible now. Everyone in town now knew she was pregnant. Just as every single one of them was asking questions. Emma and Killian were sick of it. Can't they just leave them alone ? Of course they couldn't. Emma was 17 and expecting twins. What's not about that to talk about. Though, everyone was happy and excited for them. They wished them all the luck in the world. But what Emma and Killian didn't tell the people yet, is that they were engaged.

She was watching television. Killian sat next to her on the couch. His one arm wrapped around her, the other arm resting on her belly. Her head was on his chest. They were happy.

"Mom, can you bring me some food please ? I'm hungry."

"Sure, what do you want ?"

"Biscuits."

"Coming."

"Are you going to eat again ? You ate about an hour ago." Killian said.

"Well, yes. I am going to eat again. Don't forgot that it's not only me that needs food. The 2 little ones have yo eat as well." She answered as she was pointing to her belly.

"I know" he laughed.

Snow brought the biscuits. "Here you go."

"Thank you."

Emma started eating and in no time, the bowl was empty.

"Someone was hungry, I see."

"Believe me, the two little monsters inside me can't get enough food."

"Apparently."

Killian placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. David just walked in at that moment and saw the two of them.

"Not in my house. Or at least not in the living room."

"Sorry, dad" Emma said. "We need our own place" she said to Killian. Quiet so no one but Killian could hear it.

"We have my ship."

"And you're going to raise 2 children there ?"

"Yeah, why not ?"

"I honestly think it's too small to actually live on with 4 people."

"Perhaps, you're right. Maybe we should start to look for our own place."

"Tomorrow."

"Whenever you want, love."

They watched television the whole afternoon. But after two hours, Emma fell asleep. Killian watched her sleeping, not getting his eyes off her any moment. She looked peaceful. An hour later, Killian fell asleep as well.

A couple of hours later, Emma woke up. One of the babies started to kick. She woke Killian up and took his hand. She pitot on the place one of them was kicking.

"Do you feel that ?"

"I do, love. It's wonderful."

If the one stopped kicking, the other one started. They kicked 5 minutes long, but finally, they stopped.

"They got tired of all that kicking" Emma laughed.

"They'll do it more often and longer from now one."

"I know" Emma sighed. "What are we going to eat tonight ?"

"Your father and I are going to get something at Granny's. Do you wanna come with us ?"

"Yeah, when are we leaving ? I'm starving."

"It's 6.30pm now, so we're going to leave at 6.45pm. Okay ?"

"Okay."

Emma stood up and walked towards the table. She took her phone and saw she missed a call from Ruby. She called back, but Ruby didn't pick up. 'It won't have been that important' she thought.

15 minutes later, they left. Emma saw Ruby and asked why she called.

"I wanted to say that I'm going back to the enchanted forest for a while. Searching people like me."

"You mean searching your family ?"

"Yes, but I promise I'll be back before the little ones are born."

"Good luck then."

"You're not keeping me from going ?" Ruby asked surprised. She expected Emma to talk the idea out of her head.

"Ruby, you're my best friend. I don't wanna be the one that keeps you from being happy."

"Thank you."

They hugged. Emma was happy for her friend, but deep inside, she was sad. After that, they ordered their food and ate it all.

Snow and David went back home, while Emma and Killian went to the movie. It was a romantic movie. When the movie was over, they went to the ship. On their way, they saw a beautiful house for sale.

"This is such a nice house. It would be perfect for us and our children to live in."

"Aye. That it is."

"Let's ask for some information tomorrow."

They walked the rest of the way, talking about the house. They really wanted it from what they saw from the outside.

On the ship, Emma layer down on the bed. Killian was saying something, but she was so exhausted that she didn't hear anything of what he said.

"What did you just say ? I wasn't paying attention. I'm sorry."

"Emma, you are exhausted. Go to sleep."

"I can't, I still have a lot of work to do."

"There's nothing you can't do tomorrow."

"Killian …"

He cut her off with a kiss before she could say anything. She kissed him back.

"Just go to sleep Emma. Listen to your husband-to-be for once."

"Only if you come with me."

"Of course. Give me one more minute."

"I'm waiting" she said with a smirk.

Emma went back to bed while Killian went to the deck. He was just thinking for a minute and then he went back to Emma.

"Here I … Emma, where are you ?"

No answer.

"Emma !"

Still no answer.

"Emma, love. Where are you ?
