...Scars: Part 1/1...

Emma placed her head on Hook's bare chest, smiling at the sound of his beating heart. She had almost lost him and the mere thought scared her to death. Her first instinct was to push him away again. But she was in too deep now. She was in love with him, head-over-heels in love with Killian Jones. She had been for a long time, but she was just now coming to terms with her feelings. To push him away now would only break both of their hearts.

So, instead, she chose to be happy and relieved that he was safe and sound. And after their heart-stopping kiss at Granny's, they had made their way to Hook's room. They made love for the first time that night and to say it was better than she imagined would be a huge understatement. That was nearly three weeks ago and since then they had spent every night together. She wouldn't have it any other way.

She wrapped her leg around his and then propped her chin up on his chest, her eyes scanning his gorgeous face. His gaze met hers and he arched an eyebrow.

"What is it, love?"

She brought her finger up and gently traced the scar across his cheek. It was the one thing marring his otherwise flawless face. She actually loved his scar. It was a part of him, just like his hook.

"How did you get this scar? You've never told me."

Hook removed his eyes from hers. "It was a long time ago."

Emma chuckled. "Well, you're like 300 years old, so I figured as much."

He swallowed roughly. "It's not something I've ever shared with anyone before."

"I'm not just anyone," she whispered. She brought her hand to his chin and moved his face so that he would again meet her gaze. "Killian, I think your scar is beautiful. It's a part of who you are. You once told me you'd like to know more about my beginnings. Well, I'd like to know more about yours too." She paused and then added, "May I have the honor?"

Hook smiled. "You certainly are persuasive."

"You love that about me."

He nodded, as he leaned his head down and placed a kiss on her lips. "That is just one of the many things I love about you, Emma Swan."

He paused and took a deep breath. "I've never really told you about my father, have I?"

"I only know he abandoned you and your brother when you were children because he was a fugitive."

"Aye."

"Did you ever see him again?"

"Only twice. The first time was after Liam died."

...~Flashback: Many, Many Years Ago~...

Killian sat at a table in a tavern with his crew, drinking rum. Three months earlier, he said goodbye to his brother, the only family he had. He was surrounded by a crew that looked up to him and would heed his every order, but he had never felt more alone.

"Killian," he heard from behind him.

Killian spun around on his stool, his eyes landing on an older man. He squinted, his vision a bit blurred from the alcohol.
