Emma's POV
Two days later...

"Be good kid, we will see you when we get back."

"Have fun Mom, Don't miss me too much."

I hugged him close and kissed his forehead. I hugged Liam after Killian had said goodbye to him and we lifted our bags to go out to the car. Killian said one last goodbye to his Aunt Iz and I checked that there was enough medication for Henry while we were away for the last time. We then headed out the door and put our bags into the back and got into the car.

"You ready love?"

"As ready as I'll ever be!"

"You will enjoy yourself I promise."

I nod as he starts the engine and we drive out of the garage and wave to Henry, Liam and Iz whilst we drove out of the gates. We started our journey pretty happy and stress free. But when we got stuck in traffic halfway through it was awful. We had a long flight ahead of us and we were already tired.

We finally arrived at the airport and parked our car into the 24 hour car park to stay while we were away. We took out our bags and locked the car up and headed towards check in.

I had only ever been in an airport once or twice and I don't recall it being a very successful journey. So having Killian, who had been on dozens of flights, really helped as he knew exactly what he was doing and where we had to go.

We set our suitcases to be checked in and we got our boarding passes aswell. We ventured off to get something to eat as we weren't in a rush. Also we had arrived very early as our gate didn't open for another 2 hours.

After waiting 1 hour and 45 minutes we decided to get a Starbucks before boarding our flight. My hands started shaking when we began to walk towards our gate and into the plane.

Killian guided me into the plane holding my hand tightly and stopped at our seats. He took my hand luggage out of my hands and into the overhead lockers. He sat beside me and held onto my hand again as I looked out the window at the New York night. Luckily no one sat beside us so it was just me and him sitting in first class seats cuddling with each other.

Unfortunately before all the cuddles we had to take off and sit with out seat belts in which made me sick thinking about it. Killian never let go of my hand and I leaned my head in his shoulder for comfort.

The plane started to move to the runway and I couldn't help but shiver with nerves. I was terrified. I'm not good with planes or flying or even travelling in general. I hope Killian's presence really does make a difference. The plane started going really fast and all of a sudden we were off the ground and in the air. I took a deep breath in and thought about the risks as the safety announcements started.

"Hey, love. Don't worry, they are just precautions. Nothing for you to fear at all. I'm here for you no matter what."

I smile and lean my head back on his shoulder. The seatbelt sign turned off and I immediately took off my seat belt, lifted the arm rest and cuddled up to Killian. I even took off my shoes to get more comfortable. The flight was going to be long and painful so I atleast want to be comfortable in my enviroment.

Killian took out his phone and we looked through some of our old photos and videos with the boys. The ones that stood out where from the Gala and from our wedding. We both smiled as he scrolled past the picture he took of the ultrasound picture we got two days ago. He kissed my forehead as I yawned and placed my head in the crook of his neck.

Killian's POV

About two hours into the flight Emma fell asleep and I took out my MacBook to do some work things. It was 2am back in America so it was pretty dark over the Atlantic Ocean. The plane didn't have very much turbulence so working was easy to do. After an hour of sleeping, Emma started to wake up again. She rubbed her head and looked out the window before turning round and smiling at me.
