The Star

Emma got back to the apartment and smiled when she saw Killian asleep on the couch. Setting her stuff down, she sat down at the table to take her shoes and jacket off before she headed to the couch and laid down on top of Killian. She tucked her head in to his neck, breathing him in. She knew she had been in love with him since their first kiss.

She closed her eyes when his arms wrapped around her, causing her to smile and press closer to him.

"When did you get home?" Killian's sleep filled voice asked, his hands slowly starting to rub her back.

"I just got home. I wanted to come and spend time with you." Emma said softly, placing a kiss to her neck. Killian smiled and rubbed her back.

"Well I'm glad. When do we need to get the lad?" He asked looking to her smiling as he kissed her head a few times.

"We don't, I asked my dad to have him till after dinner. I figured we could spend some time together and do dinner alone before we go get Henry. Plus I want to talk to you about something." Emma said sitting up. Killian raised an eye brow as he sat up looking over to Emma.

"Is everything okay?" He asked her softly his hand moving to her cheek as he sat up. Emma nodded and kissed his hand smiling.

"Everything is okay. Gold's back in town along with Belle." Emma started before she started telling him about her day, even adding in the cute charm she got. When she got to the part about the debt Gold had owed her, she paused for a moment.

"What is it love?" Killian asked her softly. He knew she was holding something back but he hoped she would tell him.

"Since I allowed Gold to join us this weekend, he said he owes me something. A debt of course. So I mentioned something I had seen in his store before. Your hand." She said biting her lip. She watched his face become emotion less before she continued. "So I told him I would brush the debt off, in return for your hand as well as the spell to put it back on." She said softly. Killian nodded taking it in, realizing it was the first time in 300 years he had really put thought in to his hand. Emma moved off his lap taking his hand and hook in to her hands.

"I should have talked it over with you first-"

"You should have. Because I have learn to live without my hand. I thought that the girl I was in love with wouldn't care if I had a hand or not. But I guess I was wrong." Killian said anger on his face. Emma shook her head looking at him.

"I do love you hand or no hand. I just thought that you would want it back." She said tears starting to come to her eyes. She made a stupid mistake and she regretted it instantly.

"Apparently you don't Lass." Killian said standing up and moving to the door grabbing his jacket before he left, slamming the door after him. It wasn't till he got to the road did he realize she loved him.

Emma sat on the couch letting the tears freely fall. She didn't think that this would have been the outcome of her getting Killian's hand back.

Killian turned and raced back up the stairs two at a time before he got back to the apartment and walked back in making his way to Emma. Emma stood when the door open and felt more tears when she saw Killian.

He didn't say anything as he pulled her to him kissing her. His hand moved up to wipe her tears away as he kissed her. Emma clung to him refusing to let go.

"I'm so sorry love. I shouldn't have gotten so angry." He said against her lips before he rested his forehead against hers. "Hearing you have my hand is such a shock and I just didn't react right. I'm sorry." He said as he looked to her. Emma kissed him again.

"I didn't mean to upset you. I just thought you would want it back." She said looking to him. Killian gave her a smile nodding.

"I didn't want it back until I realized things I can't do. It was hard adjusting here without a hand. I do want my hand back." He told her before he pulled back to sit down on the couch. Emma made her way to the table and grabbed the bag before she moved back to him and sat down.

"Gold said there is a chance it won't work, that the hand wont reattach right." She said as she took his hand out and let him take it from her. It was weird for Killian to be holding his own hand. But he knew hopefully it would be okay once it was reattached.

Emma closed her eye for a moment and gave him a smile before she helped him get his shirt off, along with the holster for his hook. She hadn't seen it off in a while and watched as he unhooked the hook from it and set it on the table holding his hook for a moment.

"Is it weird to say I am going to miss this?" He asked her with a small laugh as he looked to Emma giving her the hook.

"Yes. But if this is what you want we will keep the hook. It is a part of you and we won't give it up at all." Emma told him before she set the hook down and then picked up the hand giving Killian a smile. She started the spell that Gold had taught her, praying for once that Gold wasn't playing a joke.

Emma felt the change in the room and closed her eyes worried it didn't work. Killian looked down at his newly attached hand moving his fingers glad it worked. He pulled Emma to him kissing her, his left hand moving along her face feeling it for the first time.

"Thank you love." He said kissing her smiling. Killian pulled her on to his lap grinning as he did. Emma held him close to her kissing his head smiling.

"I meant my words my pirate. I love you. I wish I could have said it before or in another way. But it's true. I love you." She said smiling, kissing him once more. Killian grinned, kissing her back holding her close.

"I love you too my princess." He said smiling kissing her once more. He looked over to his hook shaking his head. "I do miss it. But I am glad my princess got my hand back." He said as he reached to the table and grabbed the black box that was sitting beside his holster.

"This came for you today. I found it on the step when I got back from taking Henry to school." He told her softly as he held it out to her. "If this person is a man, should I be jealous?" He teased her, hoping to keep up the act that it wasn't him.

"Nope. Because I love you. And the charm I got today, gave me an idea about what to do to you later." She teased kissing him as she took the box. Killian kissed her back smirking.

"What did you get and what was the idea?" He asked her smirking.

"It was a hand cuff, and I'm thinking I use mine on you later." She teased him before she opened the box looking at the star. She had no idea what the meaning could before this one. But she didn't care. She adored all the charms she was getting. She set the box down and kissed Killian smiling.

"How about we do dinner and then we can break out the hand cuffs before the lad comes home?" Killian asked smirking before he got up and lead Emma to the kitchen, both of them starting to work on dinner. They joked around and had fun, Killian getting used to his hand being back.

When they all went to bed that night, Emma couldn't help but lay there wrapped up in Killian's Arms, Wondering what the star meant. Her mind went to the saying she mumbled on the ship "The second star to the right and straight on till morning." A phrase Killian said was nothing more than a rhyme in Neverland. She sighed and cuddled close to Killian letting sleep take over, her mind drifting off to sleep.

A|N: I am getting these out fast! I love it. What did you think of his reaction to his hand coming back? And what did you think of the charm?! I won't be able to update until Sunday afternoon since this weekend is a little busy. But if I have time ill sit down and write! Neal's coming soon! Whose ready?
