KILLIAN'S POV

My Emma was finally awake.
She was alive and that was all that mattered.
The nurse gave me scratches to walk since I refused the wheel chair.
I could walk on my own.

I walked as fast as I could. Forgetting the pain of my foot and shoulder.

I finally was in her room and I couldn't be happier to see her.
I dropped the scratches to the floor and brought my hand to hers.

"Emma! Feeling good?" I said and a nurse quickly gave me a chair to sit which I didn't use.

She nodded with no emotion.

"I'm sorry, Emma. I had to save you. I would never let you die."

She seemed confused but she held my hand and slowly brought it to her chest where her heart was beating.

"You okay?" She weakly breathed.

"I'm fine. I'm fine... I'll stay here with you. Everything's gonna be okay." I started crying and squeezed her hand.

I sat down on the chair next to her bed and never left her hand.
My head was right next to hers and my lips softly kissing her brow.

"At least..." She whispered and tried to clear her throat. "We still... Have her." She said and looked down at her stomach.

"What?"

"I had a dream... It's a... girl, Killian." She weakly smiled and caressed my face.

She didn't know.
I couldn't tell her.
It would break her heart.
I asked that bloody nurse to tell it why didn't she?!!

"Emma, love..."

She looked at me in the eyes.

"Emma... I can't say this..." I started sobbing.

Her hand left mine and went to her own stomach.

"No..." She breathed out.

I felt the world falling.

Her facial expression was still, but tears started falling on her cheeks.

I caressed the right side of her face since the other side was all hurt and kissed her forehead.

I brushed her hair with my bruised fingers.

"It was the only way you would survive." I said.

And then she did something that broke my heart.
She turned her face to the empty room not facing me.

"Emma! Sweetheart!" Her parents and Henry came breathless.
"Mom!"

Emma didn't move.
This was all my fault.

She was bloody driving why did I have to distract her?!
Why did that truck have to be on her side?!

"Emma?" Her mother said when she noticed.

"She just found out... It's better if we don't." I said and suddenly Henry ran to her left side.

EMMA'S POV

"Mom..." His voice breaking with the sight of me.
"I'm sorry." I whispered and he carefully hugged me.
I placed my arms around him and it felt so good.

He pulled away and I kissed his forehead.
My lip was cut and I had to be careful.

I looked at the doorway and there was Paige... I had never met her. And I wanted to.

"You brought Paige." I smiled.
"She was with me when it happened."
"Come here" I said to her and she did.

KILLIAN'S POV

I walked with my scratches outside with her parents while she was talking with Henry and the girl.
It seemed to be distracting her of what happened so I let her be.

"What exactly happened?" David asked and I sighed.

"We were talking and a truck came from her side. She didn't see it and I don't remember what happened next."

"This is always happening to her, David. When she finally accepts that she's finally happy something happens and destroys it."

David took her in her arms and I sighed.
I was about to sit down on a chair when Henry and Paige came out from her room.

"Go to her. She needs you. We can't do anything to help her now."  David said and I nodded.

I grabbed my scratches and walked to her room.

She looked at me and said nothing.
And I did the same.

I quietly sat down on the chair and looked to the window that was on the other side of the bed.
It was dark outside.
And here were we.

Her hand moved to mine that was on the chair.
The whole hand was red, bruised.
But it was still perfect. She was still perfect.

Her skin was still soft, warm.
Plastic tubes connecting her to a machine.
An annoying sound beeping every second.

"Killian..." I noticed her voice was coming back to normal.

I looked at her.
I wanted to touch my lips with hers.
Her lips had never been that red. They were dried because of the oxygen mask that was no longer on her face and she had a cut in her lower lip.

I stood and quickly sat on her bed, next to her.
"Stay here... Please." She weakly said.

Her eyelids almost closed. She was exhausted.
I nodded and somehow we managed to lay down together on that small and uncomfortable bed.

"We lost her..." She breathed.
I swallowed hard and squeezed her body.

I caressed her hand.
Her vulnerable hand.

"We have a long life, Emma. Everything will be okay."

She looked up and I carefully pressed my lips on hers not pressing too much on the bleeding zone.

Her precious bruised fingers touching my scruff.
"I love you." She whispered.
"I love you too, Emma Swan." I said and we quickly fell asleep.
