A/N: The picture is of Emma's wedding dress.

Chapter Three, The Wedding

"Now," Arthur said once they'd arrived in the Great Hall. "There will be a feast at seven followed by a ball tonight in you honour. These servants will show to your rooms where you'll find clothes for you all." Arthur said smiling at them all as he motioned for the servants to lead them to their rooms. "I'll join you in a bit love," Killian said as he kissed her softly on the forehead. "I just need to speak to King Arthur." Looking curiously at him Emma let it go and kissed his cheek as she went with everyone to their rooms, she knew if it was important Killian would tell her. After watching her go safely talking away to Henry, Killian turned towards Arthur the smile still playing on his lips. "King Arthur. May I speak to you?" Killian asked courteously.

"What can I do for you-?" Arthur asked leaving the end hanging in the air. "Killian. Killian Jones. I was wondering if I could ask for your permission to marry my true love, fiancée Emma. She's the daughter of Prince David and Snow White, but because of the curse she never got to grow up in this world-" Killian said but was interrupted by Arthur. "So you want to give her the Royal wedding ball she would have had if she grew up here." Arthur said smiling at the man before him. "Aye." Killian agreed nodding his head. Arthur clapped him on the shoulder a smile spreading across his face but Killian noticed it didn't reach his eyes but didn't mention it for now. "But of course. The things we do for our true love. Not a problem once you've finalised the plans it'll be set in place for you. We can hold it two days from if you'd like to give you time to finalise everything and for the servants to get everything set up." Arthur asked.

"Thank you Sire." Killian said happily as he bowed to the King before being led to where his swan was waiting for him. He was glad to get away from Arthur, though he agreed to let them have the wedding here there was some thing about him that didn't sit well with Killian.

Entering the room Killian smiled as he watched Emma holding her brother Neal bouncing him up and down slightly to soothe him. He noticed that everyone was dressed in clothes given to them by Queen Guinevere and King Arthur. Snow was dressed in a light yellow coloured gown with bell shaped sleeves a few jewels covered the bodice of the dress whereas David was dressed in a white slacks, a white button down top with a light yellow vest over the top and brown boots. Henry and Robin were dressed similarly to David but Henry had a beige vest and slacks and black shoes. Whereas, Robin had the same white shirt on but had brown slacks and boots on but no vest. Regina who stood next to Robin was dressed in a scarlet red dress which was similar to what the Ladies of the Court were wearing. But what caught his eye was Emma and he couldn't help his mouth dropping open in awe.

She was dressed in a dress the colour of the purest white he'd ever seen that showed off her womanly curves and her baby bump where their two children were growing, the sleeves of the dress were tear shaped ending past her hands. "You look wonderful love." Killian said from the doorway, his voice filled with love, longing and lust making Emma jump slightly. She turned from Henry a slight blush on her cheeks her green eyes darkening with lust as she took in Killian's attire and Killian couldn't help but smirk glad he'd went to their room to change first. 

He was dressed similarly to what he usually wore but he had a dark navy blue shirt on that was almost black the top couple of buttons left open exposing the top half of his chest, a long black coat and black slacks topped with navy boots the same shade as his shirt and a silver vest. "Is everything alright Killian?" Emma asked curiously but he could detect a hint of concern in her voice. Immediately Killian moved across the room and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her close so her chest pressed against his and kissed her on the lips deeply and longing as she tangled her fingers in his hair at the base of his neck. "Aye love. How would you feel about getting married here? I plan to give you the wedding ball you would have got if we're in the Enchanted Forest, I've asked Arthur and he'll have everything planned and the wedding will be in two days. I'm sorry I should have asked you love but I wanted to surprise you." Emma placed a finger on his lips stopping him as she smiled gently at him, her other hand cupped his face as she stroked the scar just under his eye.

"It's fine Killian. Actually it's more than fine thank you." Emma said smiling happily as she kissed him on the lips. "But as we can't have the Jolly how about the colours for the wedding be yellow and navy?" Killian's eyes widened as he looked at the women he loved more than anything, for than his ship. "Really love?" Emma nodded her head looking at him unsurely. "Yea if you want to. Your doing all of this for me I want it to be special for you, I know how much you miss the Jolly so I thought maybe the colours would be like having her with you." Killian kissed her passionately and deeply his earlier feeling increasing tenfold. "It will be special for me love. I'm getting married to you am I not?" Killian asked smirking when a blush spread across Emma's cheeks. "But, thank you my love." Killian said sincerely placing another kiss to her lips.

"Mum, Dad you do know the colours represent both of you as well as the Jolly right?" Henry asked as he hugged both of them. Killian and Emma froze when they heard Henry call Killian 'Dad'. "Did you just call me 'dad' Lad?" He asked his sea blue eyes shinning brighter with his unshed tears. "Yea. You are marrying my mum and your giving me two new siblings and your also ready to hear it now." Henry said as he looked at him smiling cheekily. Laughing Killian ruffled Henry's hair as he held his small family close to him. "Congratulations you two." Snow beamed tears running down her face she hugged her daughter and soon-to-be son in law. "There's so much to do and so little time. I'll go find the servants who'll be setting everything up so they know the colour scheme. I'll be back in time to get ready for the ball tonight." Snow shouted over her shoulder as she ran out the room leaving her bewildered and laughing family behind.

"Congratulations Emma." David said as he hugged his daughter though he was glaring at Killian over her shoulder. "You best look after my daughter pirate or you'll have me to deal with." David said sternly.
"I will mate don't worry about that. Though if I do somehow hurt my swan, I'll place myself at your mercy." Killian said serious for once. "Robin mate, Henry will you both of you be my best man?"
"I'd be honoured." Robin smiled as he clapped Killian on the shoulder and hugged Emma before going back to Regina and wrapping arm around her waist.

"Really dad?" Henry asked shocked. Killian smiled down at the boy who he always saw as a son to him he placed his hand and hook on Henry's shoulders as he looked in the boys eyes. "Of course Henry I've always seen you as a son I love you and want you to be apart of it too." Henry surged forward and hugged Killian tightly around the waist Killian doing the same to him. "I'm not trying to replace your father lad." He assured as he rested his cheek on Henry's head. Henry has grown a lot in the last few weeks the thirteen going on fourteen year old was a little bit taller than Emma and the same height as Snow and Regina but not as tall as Killian, Robin and David. "I know." Was all Henry said from within his dad's arms.

***

It was only a couple of minutes until the Ball started and everyone had made their way down to the Ball already except for Emma and Snow who was fussing over her daughter and how tired and sickly she looked. "You ready Emma?" Snow asked her daughter as she placed the flower diadem on Emma head and squeezed her hand reassuringly. "Yea. I just wish these two would settle down." Emma said tiredly as she rubbed her stomach she has turned three months pregnant today and her stomach seemed to have grown rapidly throughout the day or over night and she never noticed.

"If you're too tired Emma I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you skipped the ball." Snow said worriedly looking over her daughter in concern. Taking a deep breath and holding it for a few seconds Emma slowly let it out as she shook her head. "No, mum I'll be fine." Emma said standing from her seat and smoothing out any creases, Snow didn't look sure but reluctantly let it go as Henry came into the room. "Grandpa said its time to go." Henry said as he came into the room looking up at his mother his jaw dropped open in shock.

"Mum you...you look wonderful." Henry gasped. "Dad will love you mum. He said he'll be waiting for you in the Hall at the bottom of the stairs along with Grandpa." Henry told his mother and Grandmother as he hugged Emma. "Thanks kid, why don't you run on a head we'll be out in a bit." Henry looked up at his mother startled searching her face to find out what was wrong with her. "I'm fine Henry, honest. I just need a moment." Emma smiled reassuringly at him. "Oh, and Henry?" Emma called before her son could leave the room. "Yeah?" Henry asked.
"You look rather handsome. Like a Prince." Emma smiled as Henry beamed back at her and ran out of the room to catch up with his dad.

Upon entering the large Great Hall decorated in all sorts of colours, tables lining one wall filled with all sorts of food and drinks, servants wandering the Hall handing out food and drink and a band against one wall playing a soft tune as Snow and Emma were greeted on the stairs by a man dressed in white and silver. Before they could get halfway down the Grand Staircase the man cleared his voice immediately grabbing everyone's attention his loud voice carrying across the Hall. "Introducing Lady Snow White and her daughter, Princess Emma." Snow led Emma slowly and regally down the steps to a round of applause but Emma had eyes for only one person; Killian, who stood regally in his black dark burgundy trimmed Prince attire which only brought out the colour of his eyes.

Once she reached the bottom Killian bowed to her and held out his hand smirking as he saw some of the Knights looking at his swan with lust in their eyes that soon turned to jealousy as she soon bowed back to him and took his hand. Taking great pleasure in pulling his fiancée close he smirked to the Knights with a eyebrow raised. "You look ravishing tonight love." Killian commented as kissed the back of her hand and led her into the waltz like what they did in the enchanted forest. "I can't wait till we're alone in our quarters tonight." He whispered huskily against her ear his warm breath making her shiver in delight and anticipation.

"You don't look too bad yourself." Emma said slyly. "Though I'll hold you to that, Captain." Emma whispered in his ear as she leaned against him her lips dragging across his ear lobe so he could feel every syllable. "Bloody minx you are swan." Killian growled as subtly adjusted himself. "Can you wear your pirate outfit to the wedding Killian?" Emma asked completely changing the subject, she'd noticed her dad looking at them a little too intensely a suspicious glint shining in his eyes.

"What? Why?" Killian asked startled completely thrown by the complete change in subject. "Because that's when I started having feelings for you back in the enchanted forest. I fell in love with the dashing rapscallion of a pirate, as you say." Emma said rolling her eyes but a grin was spread across her face so wide her cheeks hurt. "And the man underneath. You've made me my best self Killian and I want you as you on our wedding day, if you want to that is. Though I have to say the prince outfit does suit y-" she was cut off by Killian's lips descending on hers kissing her passionately as he held her close. "Aye love. I'd like that." He said breathlessly as they rested their foreheads against each other completely forgetting about the dance and the people around them.

"I knew that's when you fell for me love," he smirked as he held her against him much like he did in the Giants lair. "I knew you couldn't resist my handsomeness." He continued to smirk even when whacked him on the shoulder. "Though I too fell for you in the enchanted forest, as soon as I saw you after you pulled me out from under the corpses I knew I loved you, I knew I always would be. Why the tears love?" He asked concerned as he wiped away the tears afraid he'd upset her or gone to far. "It's fine. I'm fine stupid hormones." Emma sighed aggravated. "I love you Killian." Emma said kissing his face repeatedly Killian laughed joyously -a sound Emma swore she elicited more from him in the future. "And I you swan." Killian replied lovingly as he returned the favour causing her to giggle attracting attention towards them but neither cared.

Their happy bubble came crashing down when Sir Percival drew his sword on Regina and went to kill her but was pushed back by Robin who tackled Percival to the ground stabbing him with his own sword. Killian pushed Emma behind him and ushered Henry to them as he pulled out his own sword ready to protect his family as David did the same standing in front of Snow and Leroy standing in front of Belle with a carving knife in hand. "Robin? Robin!?" Regina called her voice high with panic as Robin collapsed the left side of his white shirt turning red with blood, she raced over to him placing his head in her lap as she tried to get him to stay awake.

"Take him into the nearest room!" Arthur ordered two of his guards as they picked up Robin and carried him to the nearest room placing him on the table once David and Killian had cleared it. "I'm so sorry about Robin. I don't know what came over Sir Percival he was always such a compassionate Knight." Arthur sighed as he toon his leave with his guards. Regina's hand glowed purple as she waved her hand over Robin a couple of times but growled angrily as it didn't work. "Pass me the sword." Regina snapped holding out her hand though she didn't take her eyes off of Robin, Snow quickly handed her the sword that she'd brought with them just in case.

"I can't heal him. The swords been enchanted to kill me so my magic won't woke on Robin." Regina cried dropping the sword. "Emma. Emma you can heal him please." Regina begged.
"Are you out of your mind?!" David cried. "You know Emma can't use it!"
"And she's been feeling really exhausted today Regina, she might collapse or worse lose one of the babies." Snow said desperately but it seemed the only person who heard her was Killian and he pulled Emma closer to him vehemently denying her from helping no matter how much he wanted to save his friend he would not risk the lives of his swan or his children.

"Emma please." Regina begged ignoring everyone else. "I could use the dagger to make you do this but I'm not. I'm asking you." Emma looked into Regina's eyes and saw how desperate she was to save Robin and she knew if she was in Regina's shoes she'd do exactly the same thing. "Okay. I'll try." She agreed stepping out of Killian's arms though he tried to hold her back. As she raised her hand a voice, an annoying high pitched voice that she hadn't heard since before Killian arrived sounded from behind her parents. "Attagirl."
"What're you doing here?" Emma exclaimed her eyes wide in fear.
"I've told you - I'm here to help you embrace the Darkness." Rumplestiltskin told her a wicked glean in his eye.

"I'm not. I'm not going to embrace the Darkness." Emma almost shouted stumbling back slightly as if she'd been struck. "Emma, who are you talking to?" Killian asked concerned his sea blue eyes clouding to a stormy blue as he looked from his terrified love to the empty chair. "No one." Emma said sharply as she glared at the chair taking a couple of steps closer to it. "This is too much for her." Killian exclaimed his pitch raising in panic.
"I'm fine. I can do this." Emma said vaguely, but it was like she wasn't really there.

"Not yet, Dearie." Rumplestiltskin told her. "First, you must take a price for the magic."
"I won't take one to save somebody." Emma argued.
"Well, sorry, Dearie, but these are the rules." Rumplestiltskin laughed. "I didn't make them up. There has to be a price."
"Fine." She said reluctantly. "I'll do it, I'm the Saviour." Rumplestiltskin laughed.
"It doesn't work that way. She asked for the magic she has to pay it or -"
"Or what? Or what? Tell me!" Emma snapped.
"Or you'll lose one of your babies growing in your belly." Rumplestiltskin laughed cruelly as Emma stumbled back arms wrapped around her stomach.

"No. No, no, no, no, no. No! I won't lose them I won't lose my babies!" Emma sobbed arms still wrapped protectively around her stomach as she stumbled backwards away from Rumplestiltskin, Killian catching her before she could fall. "Emma? Emma, love what's wrong with the babies?" Killian asked frantically sharing a worried look with Snow, David and Regina. "There must be some other way to save Robin.

There has to be. I won't sacrifice one of my children I won't." Emma sobbed her eyes darting around the room frantically in search of a clue as to how else save Robin. "Emma love, who told you that?" Killian asked he rubbed soothing circles on her back trying to calm her. "Magic always comes with a price. Regina asked for the magic she has to pay it or I'll lose a baby. I'm sorry Killian I'm sorry." She cried holding tight to his jacket as she sobbed into his chest. "Who told you that Em?" David asked concerned.

"He did." Emma whispered pointing to the chair where Rumplestiltskin sat smirking evilly at her.
"Rumplestiltskin." Regina breathed in recognition her eyes widening as she realised Emma's strange behaviour. "What's the bloody crocodile got to do with this?" Killian growled angrily as he tried to calm his swan down. "Emma must be seeing him that's who she was arguing with." Regina told them. "Snow pass me Robin's sword he killed Percival as he was stabbed. If Emma uses his blood in the spell it'll be like paying the price and should work so she won't lose the babies but we have to hurry." Regina said frantically as she looked at Robin's chest falling shallowly. "And if it doesn't?" David asked.

"I'll mix my blood with Percival first so I'll be paying the price with some of my blood as well that should satisfy the magic. Emma, while David holds the swords together over Robin's wound I'll drop three drops of my blood onto the swords and then you'll need to do the spell, but we need to hurry." Regina explained hurriedly.
"I won't lose my babies?" Emma asked as she wiped the tears from her face, her voice small and shaken sounding so much like the lost little girl she rarely felt at times. "No," Regina shook her head. "I'm paying the price with blood and Percival paid it with his life, by using the two swords and my blood it'll be like he died to save Robin. Do you understand?" Emma nodded head, Regina had dropped three drops of blood and stepped back as David held the swords over the wound. Lifting her golden glowing hands Emma stepped closer to Robin waving her hand over the joined swords three times as she was instructed before waving it over Robin until the wound was fully healed.

"Robin." Regina gasped relived as Robin gasped in deep lung fills of air. "Thank you Emma." She said gratefully though she didn't look up from where she was gazing down at Robin stroking his hair. Grasping the lapels of Killian's jacket Emma kissed him passionately which he was only to happy to return relieved that nothing had happened to their friend or to either one of their babies. The kiss would have turned more heated as they poured all of their feelings into the kiss but Emma fell as her legs gave out on her almost collapsing on to the hard floor of Killian didn't have his arms wrapped around her. "Emma are you alright?" Killian asked concerned as she was barely able to keep her eyes open. "I'm fine just feeling a little woozy I think I'll go lay down for a while." She said her words slurring together as she thought to stay conscious.

Without another word Killian picked her up bridal style mindful of his hook Killian left the room taking her to their own so she could rest. "I'll have Doc come and check her and the babies over." David called after them concerned for his daughter and grandchildren. "Aye, thanks mate." Killian called over his shoulder as they left the room not stopping for anybody, not even the Queen as he made his way quickly to his room as Emma had lost the battle and slumped unconscious in his arms.

It had been two days since Robin had been attacked while saving Regina and he had made a full recovery thanks to Emma. Doc and checked over Emma while she was unconscious and when she had regained consciousness and her and both of the babies were in full health to the delight of Emma and Killian who were getting married later that afternoon. Emma had collapsed due to exhaustion but that didn't stop everyone from worrying due to the conversation Emma had had with Rumplestiltskin, but their fears were put at ease due to Doc hearing two healthy strong heartbeats coming from her stomach. Emma remembered what Killian had told her the day before once she came around and Doc had finished checking her over, though Killian did get Regina to perform a detection spell to see if everything truly was okay with Emma and their growing children.

'They're strong. Survivors like their parents.' Killian told her kissing her forehead she laid in bed. 'But you are on bed rest until tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Everything is in hand for the wedding you don't need to worry yourself love you just need to look after yourself and out babies.' He told her sternly his eyes glinting at her told her he would not argue over this. But the heat was taken out of his words slightly as he gently caressed her stomach as he held her close her head resting on his chest and his cheek on her head almost buried in her long blonde hair. "I meant what I said you're my happy ending, my True Love. You and out three children and I will not lose you swan, I love you."
"I love you too." Emma replied sleepily as she snuggled further into his warmth. "Sleep love," Killian told her placing a kiss to her hair. "I'll be here when you awake.'

"Emma?! Emma?!" Snow called pulling her daughter out of her day dream. "You're all done." She smiled lovingly at her daughter after placing the tiara on her head as Emma smiled sheepishly at her. "Thanks mum." Emma gasped her eyes filling with tears as she took in her appearance in shock she couldn't believe it was truly her. Her mother had done her hair up into an elegant updo much like how her hair was when she and Killian went back in time to the Enchanted Forest, she had very light make up on that made her green eyes pop, but it was the dress that Emma loved.

The dress was in an elegantly flowing ball gown with a sweetheart neckline in sea blue the exact colour of Killian's eyes. The back of the dress was done in chiffon ruffled that led into a train. There was gold and silver patterns on the dress in a shape of a flower much like their family crest covering the dress from the bottom of the dress up to the bodice, the patterns also reminded her of her best friend Elsa. Finally she had on sea blue slippers under the dress, she loved the dress and felt like a Princess she just hoped Killian would like it.

"You look beautiful Emma." Snow told her daughter her eyes filling with tears but there was a happy smile on her face as she smiles proudly at her daughter. "Killian will love it." She reassured as she passed her, her bouquet of pink flowers, her Killian had decided to change the flowers to these lovely pink ones they found in a meadow this morning when Killian took her riding to a meadow to get her mind of Rumplestiltskin, though they had to sneak out with the help of Henry. Her mother was dressed in a lovely blue dress slightly lighter than Emma's own dress that went down to the floor in a small ball gown, Regina was dressed in a dress similar to Snow's but it was dark blue almost navy like the wedding colours but was A-line and had long tear shaped sleeves, and finally Belle, she was wearing in a yellow ball gown with her hair half up half down.

"Are you ready?" Belle asked excitedly as they made their way to anti chamber just off of the Great Hall where David, Robin and Henry were waiting for them, Robin would be leading in Regina, Henry with his grandmother and Belle on her own as David wanted to walk his daughter down the aisle. Killian was already in the Great Hall. "I am." Emma says just as excited a wide grin on her face as she entered the chamber first stopping the conversation David, Henry and Robin were having. "Emma," David breathed seeing his happy smiling daughter she was breath taking in her beauty the setting sun catching on her golden locks making it seem as if she was glowing. "You look beautiful." He was in dressed in clothes similar to what he wore in the Enchanted Forest, Henry wearing a Prince outfit in a dark sea blue though Emma could tell he'd added to it making it seem more like a pirate prince and Robin was wearing clothes similar to what he wore at the Ball.

"You look like a Princess mum." Henry beamed as he hugged her tightly. Emma choked on her laugh trying not to let the tears full she would only let them full when she was saw Killian. "And you kid, look like a pirate prince." Emma laughed as Henry gave her a cheeky laugh and scratched behind his ear, like Killian does when he's nervous it embarrassed she realised. "That was the whole idea." Henry said shrugging his shoulders. "Excuse me." A servant called clearing his voice. "We're ready now." He said before leaving the room as the fanfares took up playing in the Great Hall.

"Good luck Emma." Belle said hugging her friend before she left the room followed by Robin and Regina and then Henry and Snow until she was left in the chamber with her father. "Are you nervous?" David asked her as he held out his arm as the doors were opened by two guards. "No." Emma said shaking her head, it wasn't even a lie either truly didn't feel nervous like she thought she would, how could she, she was marrying the man she loved her true love. The music changed to a soft and gentle number as glided up the aisle holding onto her father's arm it was everything she dreamed off she didn't care about all the people standing as she made her away down the aisle all she cared about was the man who stood at the end of it under an arch away covered in pink roses.

As she finally caught the eyes of her True Love dressed in his pirate gear in all black apart from the vest that was navy blue with black designs on it she let the tears fall. He stood staring at her hardly believing this day was real as the beautiful woman, his swan walked towards him she was breathtaking and the dress made her even more so, tears fell from his own eyes as he realised the dress was the same colour as his eyes. "You look beautiful swan." Killian complemented as he took her hands from her father and kissed her knuckles. Emma blushed as tears still fell from her eyes as they were no doubt falling from his.

David looked reluctant to let her go but he saw how much the pirate loved his daughter as he only had eyes for her and she for him as they wiped each other's tears away he finally moved away to join his wife, son and grandson. "We are gathered here today to join these two people; Captain Killian Jones and Princess Emma of Misthaven." The Priest called out his voice carrying across the Great Hall. "If anyone knows why these two should not be joined in marriage speak now or forever hold your piece." When no one spoke the Priest continued.

"Do you Killian take Emma to be your lawfully wedded wife? Do swear to honour her, be forever truthful towards her, to never stray from her and to love and cherish her in sickness and health for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do." Killian agreed smiling happily at her as he placed his mother's ring on her finger that Liam always had before he died and gave it to him.
"And do you Emma take Killian to he your lawfully wedded husband? Do swear to honour him, be forever truthful towards him, to never stray from him and to love and cherish him in sickness and health for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do." Emma agreed more tears slowly slipping down her face as she placed the wedding ring on Killian's right ring finger as he still had his hook.

"Now you must drink from this cup in the hopes that your marriage be as true and pure and strong as the water in this cup." The Priest said as handed Emma the wedding cup to drink from before she handed it to Killian to take a drink from before handing it back, before taking Emma's hand again as she held his hook in the other. "With this tie may it represent the strong bond that is between you," the priest said as he wrapped a silk wrap around their joined hands. "And for it never to be broken even in death for the two of you are more than man and woman your are True Love, Destined Lovers and Fated Lovers which means no matter what realm of universe or time you will always fall for one another. With this tie you are now man and wife you may kiss the bride." The priest finished as he wrapped it around their hands once more before removing it.

Killian didn't need to be told twice as he pulled his swan into his arms and kissed her with everything he had as he dipped her back a bit so he could deepen the kiss, teeth, lips and tongues clashing as they rejoiced in finally being Mr and Mrs Jones. When they finally broke apart after a five minute furious make out session they rested their foreheads against each other breathing heavily as they stared into each other's eyes as everyone around them erupted into cheers, though they could hardly hear them as they only had eyes for each other wrapped in each other's arms.
