Once Upon A Time An Unexpected Miracle

False Alarm

Emma's POV
It feels like someone is ripping out my insides slowly. The baby's kicks hurt so bad. I can't even think I just scream. And I wish I could do more than that because Killian looks the most terrified I've ever seen him and Regina has no clue what to do. All I can do is scream.
It
Hurts
So
Fricking
Much
I think I might die.
God, how far is the hospital.
Will I die?
Will Killian be alone?
The thoughts are swirling around my head like a tornado and each one makes me even more scared than the previous one.
We finally reach the hospital and the nurses race me down a wheelchair with Killian and Regina behind me. We get to the room and I see that Regina is trying to push through to get in, but they're saying "family only". She finally shuts up and nods.
They get me out of the chair and push me into the bed.
"Are you giving birth already?! How is this possible?! It's too early!," Killian is panicking and I wish I could help, but I can't because I'm in so much pain.
"It's okay. It's okay. Everything's going to be fine. Everything's going to be okay," he tries to calm me down.
"No! It's not! Just stop!," I scream at him.
As soon as I see his hurt expression, I wish I could take it back.
Before I can say anything else though, Dr. Whale and some other nurses burst in and start hooking me up to the machines.
Soon, Dr. Whale is rubbing that weird slimy stuff on my stomach to see the baby. By now the pain is fading away.
He soon begins to laugh.
"Why the bloody hell are you laughing? My wife is in pain!," Killian growls.
"It's okay. It's okay! It's just contractions. She's not giving birth so don't worry," he smiles, "Although, you did put on quite a show for all the nurses"
I sigh along with Killian.
"So I'm okay? I'm not giving birth yet?," I breathe.
"Don't worry. Not for a few more months. But I will give you some pain medicine if this does happen again," he states.
"I nod as he begins unhooking me.

Killian is driving us home and I'm staring out the window of the car.
|Yes Killian finally got his driver's license|
"Killian...," I start.
"Yes, love?," he asks completely clueless. Boys...
"I wanted to say sorry," I finish.
"Why?," he looks surprised.
"For snapping at you in the hospital," I sigh.
He laughs.
"What? What's so funny?!," I say just as confused as he was.
"Love, you don't have to apologize. You were in pain; you had the right to yell at me," he is still laughing.
"Killian! That's not funny! I thought you were really mad at me!!," I shove him so hard that he loses control of the wheel and has to pull over.
I bet it was quite a scene to see if there were any cars on the road because we were sitting in a car on the side of the road laughing like maniacs. Fortunately, none were there.
After we collect ourselves, Killian looks at me and says, "Emma, you don't need to apologize for anything unless it's something a bit more...serious. I want you to know that," he looks deep into my eyes.
As he kisses my forehead, I whisper, "I love you, Killian"
He pulls away and just stares at me. I get embarrassed suddenly.
"What's wrong?," I whisper.
"It's just that usually I'm the one who has to say that first," he looks puzzled.
"Yeah, well," I start to say.
"I love you too," he says as he cuts me off by pulling me over and kissing me.
