...All For You: Part 1/1...

...Present Day: Storybrooke...

Emma stood on the dock, staring at Killian's ship. She came there when she wanted to feel closer to him. The silver chain with the ring he had given her still hung around her neck. She pulled it out of her jacket and cradled the ring in her hand. It made her feel closer to him too, but it did more than that. It gave her hope that one day they could get back what they once shared.

Emma was so lost in thought that she didn't hear him approach her from behind.

"Emma?"

She spun around to face him, still clutching the ring in her hand.

"Killian."

His gaze immediately went to the ring, his brow furrowing. "Is that my ring? I wondered what became of it. I assumed it had become lost in Camelot. How did you get it?"

Emma moved closer to him, a small smile on her lips. "You gave it to me."

Killian's forehead wrinkled in surprise. "I did? Why?"

"You said you believed it kept you alive. I was going on a journey and you wanted me to be safe." She paused, meeting his eyes, as her voice softened. "And you wanted me to remember that you loved me and were waiting for me."

Killian swallowed hard. So he had told her he loved her in Camelot. Something inside of him ached knowing he didn't recall telling her he loved her for the first time. He knew now that using the past tense when she had asked him if he loved her must have hurt her even more than he could have imagined. Of course he still loved her. He loved the woman who was still inside her, he loved the woman he saw pieces of every so often. He would always love her.

"What was the journey?" he asked.

Emma smiled, as she came closer to him. She brought her hand up to his chest, placing it over his heart. "Nice try."

Killian stepped away from her, as her hand dropped away. Her smile faded.

"You want me to trust you," he said. "But you give me no reason to."

Emma's jaw tightened. "It goes both ways. How can I trust a man who can't accept me for who I am?"

Killian opened his mouth to respond, but thought better of it. Emma lifted the necklace off of her neck and held it out to him.

"This belongs to you. I assume you no longer want me to have it."

Killian took the necklace from her for a moment and then placed it back in her hand, his own hand lingering over hers. "I gave it to you for a reason and I assume I never took it back for a reason too. I want you to keep it, Emma. Every time you look at it or hold it in the palm of your hands, let it serve as a reminder of what we once had and can have again. You saw the good in me when no one else did. And I can still see the good in you. I won't give up on you or us."
