Emma:

The kid. She looks exactly like Killian. And she's Tinks. Wow. I heard somewhere, that there's no such thing as a coincidence. That fate has everything planned out. Well fate sure is playing tricks. How could this even work? She's 15, and-
Wait. 15 years ago, I would have been 15. And I remember Regina telling me that fate pushes certain people together. Like my mom's archenemy adopting my son.  But I can't be mad at him right? I can't be mad he has a daughter with another woman. Oh wait, yes I can. However, I've got to stay calm, for the girls sake. And so that I can scare Hook later.

"Ok," I say slowly, "I'm extremely tired. I'm going to bed. Coming Killian?"

My words are like candy, but they hold a venom. I can't believe HOOK would have a kid with TINK! Way to ruin a childhood. Thanks. Love y'all too. I turn to leave, but Juliet stops me.

"Look," She whispered, "Meet me at midnight in the throne room." And she pushed a map into my hand.

Nodding I take Killian's arm and stride out of the room. We're silent. The moment we're out of her earshot, I turn to face him.

"Why did you follow me?"

He shrugs.

"I would let you go alone."

He acts as if it wasn't anything too big of an act. But he followed me to the Enchanted Forest. Through a portal. Why? We had been together barely a month. No one I'd ever been with would have done this. What makes him any different?

He looks at me carefully. I see his eyes flicker with happiness and fear. I slap him.

"WHAT THE HELL? I TOLD YOU GOODBYE. I TOLD YOU TO WATCH OVER HENRY! I TOLD YOU... I TOLD YOU... I TOLD YOU GOODBYE AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE THE LAST TIME I SAW YOU AND I TOLD YOU I LOVED YOU!! AND NOW I HAVE TO WORK HARDER!" I scream, my heart cracking. "I HAVE TO WORK ON A RELATIONSHIP THAT MAY NOT EVEN LAST. I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MANEUVER A RELATIONSHIP IN THE ENCHANTED FOREST WITH NO FRIENDS AND A KID THAT COULD BE YOURS!!"

Finally I got it all off my chest. Everything I was feeling, everything I was thinking was out there. But it hung in the air like a dark cloud. The words formed a dark cloud in the small space between us. Neither of us moved. Then slowly, he leaned in and kissed me softly, contrasting his rough hands pulling me close. I copied him in style, roughly gripping his hair to pull him down.

"Look Emma, I'm here because I can't lose you," He whispered between kisses, "And I wouldn't live life without a reason to live."
