(Emma's POV)
When I woke up, I noticed the sunshine shining through the window creating a nice light to the room. My eyes soon adjust to the surroundings. Blinking, I look around the room.

I suddenly realize that I wasn't in my bedroom. Memories of last night came flooding back to me as I realized that I was in Killian's bedroom. Heat rushes to my cheeks as I remember what a mess I was last night. I mentally face palm myself. What are you doing Emma?! You don't even know what you're feelings are for this man and you're in his bed! At least we had our clothes on.

I was about to slip out of the bed and quietly leave the bedroom without having to face my humiliation when I see his strong arms holding me by the waist. I smile. He was so kind and understanding yesterday. Maybe I won't be too embarrassed. Then I glance at the alarm clock which now read 7:30. Not too late, I thought.

Even though the half of me screaming to get the hell out of here, I slowly turn around to face a sleeping Killian. He looks so peaceful. His hair was kind of a mess but to me, he still looked gorgeous. In fact, it makes him look even hotter.

Against my better judgement, I gently kiss him on the cheek. As I pull back he begins to stir. His bright ocean-blue eyes flutter open and stare back at me. Whatever feelings I had of leaving quickly melted away when his eyes met mine.

"Morning love," he greets me in a rugged voice from just waking up and smiles at me. Damn that beautiful smile.

"Good morning," I greet him back and smile as well. I've never known anyone who makes me feel like this. I didn't even have this feeling with Neal, at least not as strong. Whatever this feeling was.

We both lay there starring into each others' eyes not wanting to ruin this moment with words. But then the phone began to ring. Killian groaned and slowly got up. He kissed the top of my head and whispered "Don't go anywhere," before leaving to answer the phone.

My heart flutters at that. Me, Emma Swan, getting butterflies from a man. It was absurd when you think about it. And yet, here I was, lying in Killian Jones' bed with my clothes on, smiling like an idiot.  

I just continue to smile and get comfortable in the bed. Seconds later, Killian comes back in holding the phone out for me. "It's your parents" he mouthes, not wanting them to hear.

My eyes widened as I sat up to reach for the phone. I held the phone to my ear and said "Hey guys. What's up?" trying to act casual.

"What's up?!" my mother said clearly shocked. I'm dead. "Emma you scared us half to death!"

"About that.." But my mom interrupts me and says "I'm putting you on speaker phone." But before I could protest or argue, I hear my father's voice blare through the phone.

"EMMA WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!" My father scream. I pull the phone away from my ear. I begin to blush as I know Killian can very well hear that.

"I'm 28 years old, I'm an adult. I can do what I want," I argue. I pull the phone away from my eye again, preparing for his yelling.

"You could have AT LEAST told us or where you were. Or just shoot us a text letting us know you're not dead, WHICH WE THOUGHT YOU WERE!" David yells again. There it is. I hear my mom tell my father to hand her the phone.

"Could you please tell him to calm down? I'm sorry for not telling you where I was, but I'm fine," I tell my mom.

"Yeah, sorry about your father. I understand, but why did you go to Killian's in the middle of the night? Did you two...you know..."
