{Emma's POV}
Emma spent about a solid thirty minutes in the hot shower before getting out and getting ready for bed. She slipped into one of her tight tank tops and shorts and brushed her teeth. Walking out of the bathroom and looking to the bed, she realized Killian wasn't there. She walked out of the bedroom and found a note on the table.
ѕωαи,

She smiled. Emma walked back to go lie down in her bed. She awoke about twenty minutes later to the door opening and then closing softly. She felt someone lie down next to her. She rolled over to see the back of Hook's head. Wrapping her arms around him, she ever so slightly brushed her lips against his neck.
He sighed, "You're supposed to be getting some rest, Swan." He said referring to the note he had left. Emma laid her head against the pillow.
"I couldn't sleep" she nuzzled her head into his neck. There was a long pause before he opened his mouth again.
"Do you how much I love you?" He asked her. She sat in silence as he turned to face her. "Very much. I love you very much, Swan. I'm only doing this because I KNOW it's what's best for you and the baby. Do you understand that, Emma? I'm trying my best here to be a good, well, soon-to-be husband and father. Do you realize that?" He scrunched his eyebrows as Emma lowered her head.
"I know why you're doing what you're doing, and I wanted to say thank you." He tilted his head in confusion. "Thank you for what you did, bringing August back to help keep me company, being incredibly patient, knowing what's best for our baby... All of it." She sat up and leaned against the headboard as did he.
He reached for her hand. "You're right. I have a responsibility that I need to take care of." She leaned her head against his shoulder. "What if I do bad, Killian? This is all new to me. I never got to see Henry grow up. I just... left him." Killian cocked his head squeezing her hand for comfort.
"But that's what makes you an amazing mother, love. You did what you thought was best for Henry at the time, not for you. I hope I'm half the parent you are to that boy." She leaned up and kissed him.
"Look at what you did today." She held the side of his face with her right hand. "Killian, all you did was think of the baby. You're gonna be an amazing father." Smiling, Killian laid back down next to Emma. Eventually, he fell asleep on her shoulder. Sometimes she thought she needed him more then he needed her. She realized how much more dependent she had become on others rather than independent and fell asleep smiling. She had others who loved her, and that was something she never thought she'd have.
