When I Met You, I Found Me (1)

Chapter 27

Ariel's party was Saturday in the evening, and would be held all night. Only a few people were invited. Emma, Ruby, Belle, Robin, Regina, Graham, Killian, and Victor were a few of the people going. It was a private party, and you could only get in unless you had an invitation. There was an indoor pool next to her living room. It overlooked the beach. Emma was sitting on the couch in a secret room that only her and Ariel knew about. They were close friends, and Emma was over at her house often when Ruby wasn't around or when she was busy. The room had lights nailed up on the wall right under the ceiling. A black couch was pushed up against the wall, a popcorn machine that had freshly popped popcorn in it was backed up in a corner, and the tv was playing music because of the music station she put on. She sat alone. Not even knowing what she was doing. Her phone was buzzing because of all of the texts Killian was sending her. Ariel opened the door and shut it quickly. She sat next to Emma and gave her a hug.

"Your boyfriend is looking for you." She said sweetly.

"Yea well I don't want to be found." Emma said softly.

"Talk to me."

"I know what's going to happen. No matter he says, I know that it will end badly. It always does. He is a great guy don't get me wrong, but he makes these promises that I just can't help but think that he will break. I love him with all my heart, but all of my relationships were a lie. They said they loved me but they ended up lying to me. I just can't help but feel like I'm not enough." Tears were rolling down Emma's face. Killian always made her feel loved, but what she said was true.

"Emma you know he loves you. If you weren't enough, why would he stay with you until now? Why would he have gone through all of the trouble with Neal and moving you into your new room if he was going to leave you? You mean everything to him. I think that he loves you more than his own family. He probably thinks that he isn't enough for you, or that he doesn't deserve you. I thought like this one time you did with Eric. It got better after we talked about it."

"But we already talked. I still feel the same way. I know he loves me and I love him. I just can't help but feel like he is going to give up on me. I will never give up on him, but I just feel like  he is going to with me."

A small male voice was heard behind Ariel. "I'm never going to give up on you! I love you Swan and you are enough for me. You're too much, but I'm going to have to get used to you and how incredibly special you are. Whatever you want Emma I will give it to you."

Without hesitation, Emma stood up and left the room. She went over to him and hugged him. "I'm sorry. It's really not you, it's me. I'm crazy and I don't know what to do. I love you I really do, and it's not that I don't trust you cause you know I do."

"Emma it's okay I understand." Killian said. He put his arm around her waist and pulled her close. He gave her a kiss on the cheek and took a drink from his cup.

She broke away from him and went to the kitchen. She grabbed herself a beer from the cooler and went outside. She sat on the steps and raised the chilled bottle to her lips. It started snowing but she didn't care.

Killian was inside looking for her. Had she gone home? Was he ignoring her too much? He grabbed his coat and went outside. He saw her sitting on the steps. He opened the door and saw the snow on her hair. It laid perfectly on her golden curls making her look more elegant and graceful than usual. He draped his leather coat over her shoulders and sat next to her.

"Sorry I should have said something." Emma said.

"Don't be. I'm your boyfriend so tell me. What's wrong love?" Killian said.

"I don't know. Maybe the fact that I lost my parents or that a crazy guy is killing my loved ones. I guess I'm just not in the mood for a party."

"Swan you need to lighten up. Just relax. Do you need help with that?" He smirked at her but she didn't blush like she usually did.

She smiled and took another drink of her beer. "I think I'm going to head home. I'm tired and I'm not feeling too good."

"I'm coming with you. Maybe I can help you feel better."

After saying goodbyes, Emma hopped into her car and drove back to Granny's. She dug in her pocket for her room key and opened the door. Killian was behind her. He walked over to her bed and sat down. She went into the bathroom. When she was in there for awhile, he knocked on the door and heard Emma throwing up. He rushed in and held her hair.

"Killian you don't have to do this." Emma said when she was done.

"I do. Emma you don't think that you're pregnant do you?" He asked worriedly.

Emma's eyes widened. "I-I don't think so." She stood up and grabbed her keys. "I'm going for a walk. I'll be back in a little bit."

He nodded his head. He laid down and turned the tv on.

She jumped in her car and drove down to the pharmacy. She scanned the aisle for pregnancy tests. She finally decided to man up and grab one. She payed for it and rushed to the bathroom. She followed the directions and waited five minutes like it said. She was shocked to find out the answer.

What's the answer going to be?
