16 Weeks

It didn't take long until the rest of the town found out about the 'royal pirate twins' as Mr Gold (aka Rumplestiltskin) so eloquently put. Emma thought he was being extra pissy because he made it quite clear she should be with Neal (or Bealfire as was his other name). He didn't seem to think that what Neal had put Emma through in the past should be an issue and she should put it aside for Henry's sake. Thankfully Henry was a smart enough to kid to know there was too much bad blood between them to expect them to be more than friends. He still loved his father and he always would but he knew his parents would never be a couple again and he was fine with that

Besides, Henry was really warming up to his mothers new boyfriend, Captain Hook, and now that his mother was pregnant he was sure it would make them family all the more. If he really thought about it Hook had been family before he even met his mother. In a way. Hook had been his grandmothers (Milah, his fathers mother) partner for a while before his grandfather had killed her then taken his hand (and earning him the name Hook) it was strange to think of all these crazy family connections he had. Take his adoptive mother Regina for instance, she was also his step great grandmother and there was Belle who was his ex step grandmother but didn't look a day over 22! There was Robin, Regina's boyfriend and Rowland, Robin's five year old son. And that was just the tip of the iceberg. His other grandparents were Snow White and Prince Charming. Just the thought of having the WHOLE family over for Christmas dinner was enough to drive anyone insane. Especially when some members of his family possessed the most powerful magic there was. No, he was definitely glad he spent the holidays spending time with each part of his crazy family separately. Thankfully for the twins things would be much simpler. The would have one mother, one father, one brother, an uncle and one set of grandparents. Since Killian was so old his blood line had long died out leaving him the only living Jones of his family tree. It would definitely be simpler.

Neal hadn't taken the news very well. He knew Emma and Hook were living together. He even suspected something was going on with them but he always hoped Emma would come back to him. Always giving Emma the 'he can't be trusted' speech. She'd given up listening long ago. The only reason she was still friends with him was because of Henry. Being around him was too painful. It was a constant reminder of what he did to her and what could have been. So when Henry told him he was going to be a big brother the first thing Neal had done was confront Emma. Just as she'd expected. The second thing he'd done was confront Killian. Again.

'Is it true? Are you pregnant with his baby?' He'd asked almost hissing at the mere mention of Killian.

'Babies. Twins. And yes it's true Neal. Why?'

'You can't trust him Emma he will hurt you he will let you down eventually that's what he does'

'No Neal that's what you did. Killian's done a sight more for these babies already than you ever did for Henry. I'm with him now and I love him so stop with the Killian is a bad guy act because I'm tired of it. We're together so you better get used to it'

She'd said to him closing the door in his face and walking back to the kitchen as calmly as she could. It felt good to get it off her chest but part of her felt guilty for it too. It's not like he'd known she was pregnant with Henry but then had he not sent her to prison she would have had no qualms in telling him.

His confrontation with Killian had involved a bit more shouting, on Neal's part.

'Ah I was hoping I'd bump into the reformed Captain Hook' he'd said as he rounded a corner and walked right into him.

'You know where I live you could have come and found me at any time' Killian replied with a smirk across his face.

'Well I didn't want Emma or Henry around when I did talk to you'

'What is it you want Bae?' He'd asked sighing in exasperation.

'Stay away from them. Emma and Henry. You said you'd give me a chance. She could still love me and now you've gone and got her knocked up so she will stay with you. I mean it Hook stay away from my family'

'First of all mate, I took my distance and had every intention of staying away but she came to me. She chose me. Not you. Secondly if I were to heed your advice, that would mean abandoning my unborn children and I can assure you Baelfire that will never happen. I also wouldn't abandon Emma or Henry. Not that it's your business but I love them and as long as they want me around I'm not going anywhere and even then I'd put up a fight. If you really think Emma still loves you and you might have a chance you need a reality check mate. She can't stand being around you because it causes too many painful memories to resurface, that's your fault. Not mine. And lastly I didn't need to get her pregnant to make sure she stays with me. If that's what you really think you obviously don't know Emma. Now, I'm going to walk away from you now and pretend you didn't just threaten me. Oh and Bae, they're my family now too'

'What kind of father can you be with one hand? Why don't you just leave them now before you hurt them even more' he'd called as Killian turned is back about to walk away.

And with that Killian had walked leaving Neal to wallow in self pity and his words ringing in his ears. Because he had said the one thing that had been on his mind since the moment he found out he was going to be a father. What kind of father could he be with one hand? One hand and two babies nonetheless?

Of course he'd had to tell Emma what had happened, the minute she saw him she knew something was wrong and he tried to distract her but that damn superpower was good and she was relentless. As he'd expected she was furious with Neal. Killian had left out the remarks of his fathering capabilities with only one hand but he knew Emma could see something was on his mind. Thankfully she didn't push him. For now. He knew his Swan and he knew she wouldn't give up that easily.

After that everyone else's reactions were much the same, shocked at first then excited (apparently twins in particular have that effect on people) at the prospect of yet more babies in StoryBrooke. Even Regina had seemed happy for them (being with Robin clearly making her go soft) but Emma's parents were by far the happiest and things were getting to a point where she was starting to feel smothered by them. Killian didn't help. If anything he was worse than the whole town together. But it was kind of sweet too. He'd read every book he could find on pregnancy. He'd taken every leaflet he could home from the hospital. Even the ones that were totally not relevant, such as 'Pregnancy and Alcoholism' 'Pregnancy and STIs' 'Pregnancy and Drugs' and 'Pregnancy and AIDS' having to explain what drugs, STIs and AIDS were to Killian and reassuring him that none of those things related to her was hard work.

'Killian we don't need these ones. They're totally irrelevant. I don't have AIDS, I'm not HIV positive, I haven't EVER had an STI, I stopped drinking the minute I found out I was pregnant and I haven't done drugs in years!'

'How many years?'

When he wasn't looking she'd taken those ones to work with her and shredded them.

Work was another issue entirely. Killian wanted her to quit. She was with child (or rather, children) now and he thought her work was too dangerous. Of course her mother and father had agreed with Killian so they came to a compromise. She would take it easy until she could no longer see her feet and then she would do desk work. No one was particularly happy with the deal, least of all Emma as she hadn't factored in she was now growing two babies and not one but they agreed.

Killian barely let her lift a finger these days and at first Emma found it quite endearing but soon enough it was getting too much and she was snapping at him more than she liked or wanted. She knew he was just worried about the babies, she knew he was worried about her too but she could take care of herself. It's what she's done her whole life.

So they settled down into their new routine, Killian would work the early shift, Emma a few hours in the afternoon and her father covered until 10pm. After that and at weekends the station was closed and all calls went directly to their phones. The town was so small it wasn't worth being open.

It had been five weeks and they were still no closer to solving their missing persons case. In fact they now had an additional missing person and it was starting to worry her. It was as if both people had just got up in the middle of the night and disappeared. Something wasn't right about it. Killian and her father had searched both houses and any and all hangouts they could find but nothing was out of the ordinary. Neither of them had taken money, keys, clothes, credit cards, phones. All the usual things you would expect someone to take if they were leaving for any amount of time. Something was definitely off but she couldn't put her finger on it so decided to put it to the back of her mind. It had been all she thought about for weeks now and was driving her crazy.

She headed to the diner to meet Henry and Killian. They had their 16 week appointment at the hospital later that day and had promised Henry could come along too, they wanted to keep him included in as much of the pregnancy as they could as Emma was worried he might feel left out.

Walking in she saw them in their booth. Two of her favourite men. Her men. Her devilishly handsome pirate in her favourite leather jacket. The one that made her look at him almost twice as long as she normally would. He looked up and saw her immediately, giving her one of his dazzling smiles that made her knees week. Sat in front of him was her -not quite teenager yet- son in his usual hoody and jeans. Every bit as beautiful as the day he was born. Perhaps even more so. He had his fathers eyes. But the one thing he had that no one else did was the heart of the truest believer and no matter what he will always be the first boy Emma ever gave her heart to completely and irrevocably.

Noticing Killian's smiles he looked up and waved to his mum, a smile to match Killian's on his face. Emma walked over and took her usual seat next to Killian, he kissed her hello as he always did and wrapped his hook arm around her waist whilst she asked Henry about his day at school. It was a lovely family meal and Henry declared it a new tradition before hospital appointments.

Just as they were about to leave Granny asked if she and Ruby could have a word with Emma and Killian. It seemed serious so they sent Henry ahead to the car to wait with his comics.

'So what's up Granny? Something happened in here or the B&B?' Emma asked. It took a second until she noticed the two women giving each other worried looks.

'Granny, Ruby, what's going on?' She asked again putting her hand on Granny's arm. Something definitely didn't seem right.

'Oh okay I'll tell them Granny but they won't believe me'

'Ruby you know I have my superpower? I can tell if people are lying I will know if you're telling me the truth or not.'

'Okay but you're not going to like it and I'm not even sure what it means'

'Shall we sit ladies?' Killian asked noticing Granny looking a little peculiar.

They sat back at the booth they had just occupied.

'Go on Ruby. It's okay' Emma said putting her hand on top of Ruby's.

'Okay so I was working on Wednesday night right and this guy comes in. He was hot and I mean HOTT. Like wow! He was new. I've never seen him before and trust me I'd remember a face and body like that. Well that's not the point anyway the point is his smell. It was different. I couldn't place it but something was definitely off about him. It made my nose feel hot and itchy. I've never smelt anything like it. It's hard to explain but it was a very sweet burning sugary smell mixed with blood but nothing I've ever smelt before. People normally smell similar but distinct. Like you Killian, fresh salty sea, wood and rum.' She said with a smile.

'And Emma well right now you smell a lot like Killian. That happens when two people are together or you're pregnant. It changes. Anyway he acted very odd when he was here too. I can't really explain what it was about him he watched every slight move I made. It was unnerving but it was more that that too. And Granny smelt it too and her nose isn't as good as it used to be so that means it was strong. Very strong. Granny just thought we should tell you. It's probably nothing but at least you know now right?' Ruby finally finished giving a small smile.

'I believe you Ruby, I'm not exactly sure what it means but if you see him again and he continues acting strange let me know. Did you catch his name?'

'No I never sorry Emma'

'Don't worry about it. And Granny was right. You did the right thing coming to us. Thanks we will keep a look out for him see what we can find out. I hate it when new people come to town'

Everyone stood up from the booth and Emma gave Ruby a hug.

'Now go you two before you're late seeing those babies!' She exclaimed before pushing Emma in the direction of the door.

Half an hour later they were back in the hospital waiting room. Today Emma was having the works done. Including having her bloods taken and more pee samples. She was just playing a game with Henry on his iPad when the doctor called her through.

'Hello again Mrs Swan, Sir, Ah and who is this young man?' the doctor said shaking everyone's hands

'This is my son Henry'

'Nice to meet you Henry. So how do you feel about becoming a big brother eh?'

'Excited' Henry replied with a huge grin on his face.

'That's the spirit son! So Mrs Swan'

'Miss'

'Oh yes I'm sorry I never meant...'

'Don't worry it's okay'

'Anyway as I was just about to say, your blood work has been sent off. I wont know any results for a few days and when I do I will call you up. The nurse tested you urine sample. You seem to be lacking a bit of sugar but nothing we can't solve with a bit more chocolate' he said smiling and looking up from the paperwork.

She could feel Killian glaring at her because of the doctors words. She'd never get him off her back now.

'I have managed to get all your old notes from Boston sent over...'

Killian squeezed her hand.

'It's just procedure so I can check how things went last time. Normal vaginal delivery I see. Fantastic'

He carried on reading through the notes for a few seconds then frowned and looked up at Henry and back down again.

'My mum put me up for adoption. To give me my best chance' he said to the doctor as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

'It's okay, we're back together now' he carried on and smiled.

'We are kid and nothing will change that' Emma said giving him a small hug with her free arm.

'Well that's very erm noble of you son, you should be proud Miss Swan. So everything is in order. Shall we go to the scan room? I'd like to see how these little ones are growing' the doctor replied standing up and walking out the door.

'You okay love?' Killian whispered, still holding Emma's hand.

All she could do was nod. She knew that he knew she wasn't exactly okay but right now wasn't the time so they followed the doctor to the next room.

Emma hopped on the bed just as she had five weeks ago, pulling her tank up and undoing her jeans button to give the doctor better access to her abdomen.

'Now, before we start, just so I know, would you like to know the sexes of your babies?'

Emma and Killian looked at each other, they hadn't discussed this, hadn't even thought about it really but right now in that moment she knew she wanted to wait and have a surprise. He must have seen the answer in her eyes as he answered with a simple 'no thank you' without even turning away from looking into her eyes.

Emma saw Henry rolling his eyes and shaking his head at the pair of them, she gave a small laugh and turned to the screen to see her babies.

It's amazing how much they had grown in just five weeks. They could see the babies kicking each other (a lot!) Their limbs so much more clear now.

Killian watched the babies in awe.

'Can you feel that love?' He'd asked when twin two gave what looked like a mighty big kick.

'Not yet but it won't be long now' she replied.

The doctor concluded that both babies were growing well, they were the exact same size as each other and so far looking as healthy as can be. They left the hospital armed with yet more scan pictures to show her parents (and of course the rest of StoryBrooke!) and dropped Henry off with Neal on the way home. It was Friday night and he was spending the weekend with his father.

'So Swan, we have the place to ourselves. What would you like to do tonight?' Her pirate asked with that mischievous grin he always had especially for her.

'You're impossible captain' she sighed. 'I'm going to have a shower'

Killian let her go and went to get himself a glass of water. He still found himself amazed every time he turned on the faucet to reveal sparking clean water. Back home they'd kill for this.

'KILLIAN!'

He rushed through to the bathroom adjourning their bedroom, she never shouted him like that, something must be wrong. He ran in not caring for her modesty. Not caring to even look where he was going. He just ran.

'Emma what's wrong?! You scared me half to death love!' He said noticing that Emma was still stood up and didn't look to be in any pain. In fact she looked bloody fantastic. Her body, naked and wet, her breasts bigger than usual and nipples quite clearly hard. Her hair dripping. She had curves in all the right places. Her ass just as firm and it always was and then her stomach was now forming a small bump where his babies grew. She'd never looked more beautiful to him than in that moment. He gulped.

'What's wrong captain is that I thought you were going to follow me. It seems you may be losing your touch' she said dragging his fully clothed body behind the glass and pushing him under the hot trickling shower.

'Captain Hook losing his touch? Never Swan. Especially with you around' he kissed her hungrily it felt like they hadn't been together like this in ages. It had only been two days but even a day that went by that he didn't touch her like this got to him. He needed to feel his Swan, to be close to her, to show her his love.

She started to undo the buttons on his shirt, kissing the exposed skin with hot angry kisses whilst her fingers found his back and arms. She ran them up and down as her kisses got lower and lower, his shirt now lay discarded and soaked on the floor.

He couldn't take it. Seeing her like that he wouldn't last a minute. He pulled her up and pushed her against the wall. His lips found her ear lobe and he placed light kisses all over her neck as his hand kneaded her breast. Her fingers found his waist band and opened the button.

'Fairs fair captain' she said heavily.

'As you wish' and with that he was just as naked as she was. She reached her arms around his neck and pulled him closer this time the kiss was slow and sensual. Her tongue exploring his mouth, her teeth finding his lip and nibbling. He growled and she did it again more forcefully. She loved hearing that noise. A noise she made him make.

His arm was around her waist as he pushed her up against the wall even harder. She was driving him wild. He was trying to delay it but he could tell she wanted him and she wanted him now.

He lifted her up and entered her as she wrapped her legs around him. Her head falling back and body arching, letting him carry her weight. It took him a couple of seconds but Killian got into it thrusting as hard as he ever had and Emma thrusting (albeit awkwardly) back he could see she was getting closer, she was shouting his name out and her moans were driving him to the brink. Her put her down before either of them reached their peak. He wanted this to last, he wanted to savour this memory of her of them together. He bent down and kissed her behind her ear entering her from behind much slower than before. This time he wasn't straining to stand and she wasn't thrusting awkwardly. It was perfect. He reached his arm around and found her breasts. He took her nipple in his hand and flicked it slightly making it harder, then his hand moved down, across her stomach, her bump. He lingered for a second and then his thumb her found her centre. He started to rub in slow circles to match his thrust but her screams were getting louder, her moans deeper and he couldn't hold on any more. He had to finish this time. He rubbed harder and faster as his thrusts picked up. He felt her muscles tighten around him before he heard her scream his name and he followed her a second later with one last thrust 'Emma' he said huskily in her ear as his orgasm came.

Afterwards they helped wash each other in the shower before getting in to bed.

'So, am I losing my touch?' He asked her jokingly

'Captain Hook might be but Killian Jones just gets better every time' she said as she leant in to kiss him.

'I love you'

'I love you too' he replied kissing her head and pulling the sheets to cover them before they fell asleep.
