Heart Vs. Mind: Colifer

Chapter 2: The Vows

     As I was shooting this final scene, I kept thinking about how excited I was going to be to see the episode air. Captain Swan fans are going to go crazy. Not only was there the simple fact that Killian and Emma were finally getting married, but this wedding is everything CS fans have wanted and more. The Jolly Rodger is all decorated with white tulle and red roses; the colors of the wedding are white and red. (Emma and Killian chose roses in remembrance of their first date back in season 4 when Hook gave her a rose.) Emma and Hook chose not to have bridesmaids or groomsmen, but Regina will be Emma's maid of honor and Robin will be Hook's best man.  I was wearing a long-sleeved lace A-line dress with a red satin belt around the middle. Hook was wearing leather pants with his red and black vest.  All of the past characters from the show were back for the final episode, so Adam put it in the script to have everyone attend Emma and Hook's awaited vows.

    I walked down the decorated ship to Colin. He had a huge smile on his face, and I smiled back. I can't imagine being without my best friend, for who knows how long. We have been so close for six years; telling each other everything, picking each other up...the only problem is, I fell for Colin along the way.  I am sure the ship "Colifer" in his mind is just a group of crazed fans, and definitely never crossed his mind as being a possibility.

   There I was...or, Emma was, looking into Colin's eyes. It almost looked like he had tears in his eyes; who am I kidding. He did, because he is an amazing actor who knew Killian would be sentimental. I held his hands, perhaps for the last time. His warm fingers intertwined with my cold, shaky hands. This scene felt so different. It felt like saying goodbye to someone for eternity. We all knew the show would end, but were okay with that fact until it happened.

"Emma Swan. God. I cannot believe I am so lucky of a man to be here, standing with you in front of all of our friends, pronouncing our love to one another. I remember back to when we went to Neverland, and David over here said, and here I quote directly, "It's never going to happen. She will never love you". Everyone chuckled, especially because Emma and Hook's vows were improvised. "Emma, when I met you, you heart wasn't open. You wouldn't let me in. I stand here proud to say that I was able to knock down your walls; and in turn, make us both open to love again. You have done so much in my life. You turned me from a villainous, greedy, sneaky fool to an attempt to be as good of a man as you deserve. I have always loved you, from the moment you tied me up to a tree and threatened to leave me there to turn me into an Ogre meal. Thank you, Emma. I will never be able to repay you for the things you have shown me. And I love you for that. I love you so much."

Killian's vows were now over.  I have to admit, the vows made me a little teary eyed. Seeing Emma and Hook grow so much together was such an honor. Now was my turn.

"Killian Jones, or shall I call you your more colorful moniker, Hook". I winked at him, because that's exactly what Killian said to Emma when they first met. "When I was a little girl, I never would have seen myself marrying a pirate; or captain hook for that matter." Colin raised his eyebrow at me, suggesting that I was hinting at not wanting to marry Killian. God he's adorable. "But. I couldn't be happier, Killian, you have helped me out of darkness. You have held me when I was in the worst of pain. You never gave up on me when I was the most complicated girl in the world. You hold the key to my heart, and I owe everything to you for showing me how to love again. I can't wait to start our lives together, sailing the world. Just me and my pirate. I love you, Colin."

"Cut!' Adam said. I was so confused. I thought Colin I were doing so well in the scene together. I looked around and everyone was laughing and kind of thrown off.

"Jen, oh Jen", Colin said in between chuckles.

Then I heard someone playing the scene back.

"I love you, Colin."

I am a fool. I feel so stupid. I guess I just was caught up in the moment trying to make the scene perfect. Nobody took me telling Colin I loved him very seriously, because they all believe it was an accident. This wasn't just an accident.

It was how I really felt.
