39. Happy To Be Home

Killian's POV

I wake next to Emma with my arms secured tightly around her, and she sleeping peacefully with me. I smile and bury my face in her hair. She groans. My grip only tightens around her. "Killian, your crushing me." She chokes. I snuggle against her. "We have school..." I groan. "I know, I know." She giggles. "Come on, lover boy." She puts his hand on top of mine that rests on her stomach.

"No," I simply say.

"Killian." She giggles. "Come on, we're going to be late." She tries to escape my hold, but fails.

"Too bad." I crawl on top of her. She giggles. I put my hands by her head. I lean down and kiss her. She puts her hands to my cheeks. I smile and put my forehead to hers. She smiles and bites her lip. I kiss down her neck. She gasps. I chuckle and pull back. I kiss her again and hop off of the bed. I change into school clothes. I look back at her as she just smiles at me from the bed. I walk to her and bend down for a kiss. "Kiss?" I smile. She laughs and puts her hands in my hair; pulling me down for a kiss. I smile and pull back.

I go to her closet and pick out an outfit for her. I walk back and throw her the clothes at her. She changes out of her pajamas and into light gray jeans and a cute, white, low cut, tank top with dark blue anchors on the sleeves. "You look amazing." I put my hands on her arms.

"Thank ya, babe." She smiles seductively and slides her hands up my sides. I chuckle and wrap my arm around her shoulders.

"Go get ready." I kiss her temple and walk down the stairs to the kitchen. I start breakfast as she gets ready in the bathroom.

She walks down with her hair in a ponytail and her makeup done perfectly. "Hello, gorgeous." I smile and put my hands on her hips. She blushes.

"Is breakfast ready? I'm famished."

"Aye, I was just waiting for you." I pull a chair out and notion for her to sit. She smiles and sits down. I kiss her head and take both of her plates. I put one in front of her and one in front of me. I sit across from her.

"You made all this?" She looks up at me in unbelief.

"I wanted to make you something special because of what you've been going through." I take her hand from across the table.

"Thank you." A tear trickles down her cheek. I wipe it away and give her a soft smile. She returns it.

"Come on, let's eat." She nods.

We finish eating and grab our bags and jackets. We walk down the hall and to the elevator hand in hand.

_________________________________________________________________

I kiss her goodbye and head to my first class. Since this is the last week of school for the year, we're just studying.

I walk in and take my usual seat. Jefferson walks in and I glare at him. He takes his seat next to me as I try not to strangle the life out of him. He smirks at me and turns his attention back to the teacher. Several choice words run through my mind that I would rather not repeat.

Class ends and I gather my papers. "How's Emma doing?" Jefferson asks.

"She's fine." I say plainly.

"She told you yet?" He leans against the wall.

"What do you know about her?" I slam him up against the wall once everyone leaves.

"Everything." He smiles evily.

"Enlighten me." I take my hands off of him. "First off, who's this Neal?"
