2 Years Later

Emma rushed around with her bridesmaids, Ashley- another first time mother with a daughter. Emma and Ashley met during 'Mommy and Me' classes. Ruby- a waitress and owner of her grandmother's diner, Granny's. Ruby and Emma made quick friends when she came in in the morning to get coffee for her and Killian. And Belle, who owns the library under the clock tower in Storybrooke. Emma, Killian, and Eve visited the library a lot looking for fairytale storybooks. Belle was also a very good babysitter.

Mary Margaret and Regina were also helping Emma get ready. She was admiring her wedding dress in the mirror as Ashley, Ruby, and Belle all get ready in their bridesmaids dresses. Eve was the flower girl, and she was too waiting with Emma.

"Daddy like dress, mama?" Eve asked as she swung feet.

"I'm sure he'll like both of our dresses, baby." Emma said as she walked over to her daughter. Eve giggled and pushed Emma's veil out of her eyes. "You look so pretty!"

"You too!"

A knock on the door brought Emma out of her trance. It pushed open and David had his eyes covered. "Is everyone decent?"

"Yeah, dad." Emma said.

He uncovered them and his jaw dropped. "You look stunning, Emma!" He hugged her, but was careful that he didn't smudge her makeup or mess her hair up.

Emma's dress was a perfect shade of white. It had a small train, but there was enough to be dragged on the floor. It was simple, but still beautiful. The veil had a diamond tiara connected to it. Her hair was curled, but elegantly pulled back. She had a diamond necklace on that matched the design of the tiara.

"Thank you."

Mary Margaret and Regina each kissed Emma's cheek and left the room with Eve. One at a time, the bridesmaid left the room with Killian's groomsmen. They were Graham, who took Emma's place as deputy at the sheriff's station. August, who worked at his father's carpenter shop. And Ashley's husband Sean.

Finally, it was time for Emma to walk out with David. She wasn't as nervous as she thought she would be. She held onto the lilies as her and David walked down the red carpet. She saw Killian's eyes brighten as he saw her.

The entire day was terrible. She hadn't gotten a lot of sleep because he wasn't there to hold her. He looked amazing in his tuxedo. The minister stood next to them, with a smile on his face as well. David kissed her forehead and sat down with Mary Margaret, Robin, and Regina. Eve stood in front of the minister, and she gazed up at her parents with a dorky smile on her face.

"We are here to bond Miss Swan and Mr. Jones..." The rest of it was mumbled words as she stared into Killian's eyes. She smiled and squeezed his hands.

"Swan?" He asked.

She shook her thoughts from her head. "Sorry, what?"

"Do you want to start the vows?"

"Oh." She blushed and nodded. "We met under different circumstances, that many people wouldn't find normal. You were my knight in shining armor that saved the day when you drove me home through that thunderstorm. Who knew you would actually be saving the rest of my life? Sure, we've hit our share of bumps in the road, some worse than others, but now, we are getting married, and have a beautiful daughter." She let go of one of his hands and rubbed it along Eve's head. "And I couldn't be more happy about it."

Killian smiled as he began. "Truth be told, Swan, I had no idea what I was going to say. I figured that as soon as I saw you walking down that aisle, something would come to me. I love you, Emma. Nothing can describe our love and what I feel for you. When I first saw you, I knew you would change me, or be the death of me. In a way, you were. You killed the old me, and buried him deep into the ground. We've had our moments where he visits, but he never stays for long. But now, we are just opening another chapter of our lives, and I hope that there are many more pages."

"Who has the rings?" The minister asked. Sniffles were heard throughout the room.

Graham handed Killian a ring, while Ruby handed Emma one.

"Do you, Killian Jones, promise to take Emma Swan to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, until death parts you?"

Killian slid the ring on her finger and stared deep into her eyes. "I do."

"Do you, Emma Swan, promise to take Killian Jones, to be your-"

"I do." She said and slid the ring on his finger.

The audience laughed and so did the minister. "Then I now pronounce you as Mr. and Mrs. Jones! You may now kiss the bride."

Killian flipped the veil over and and pressed his lips to hers, in a romantic and heated kiss. The crowd cheered and clapped as the separated. The walked down the aisle together hand in hand. Eve ran after them and squeezed in the middle of them.

After a bunch of pictures, everyone went to the after party. They ate food, drank champagne, and talked to a million people. People made speeches, wishing them a happy life together, and telling them how lucky they were that they had found each other. Emma got the first dance as Mrs. Jones with Killian, and the second one with David. Eve danced with both of her parents, separately and together as the family they were meant to be.

At the end of the night, Emma and Killian got into his new car and drove off to the hotel near the airport for their honeymoon. In the rearview mirror, the could see Mary Margaret and David waving with Eve in their arms. She sat back against the seat and smiled at her new husband.

"Was it everything you dreamed of?" Killian asked, glancing at her when they got to a stoplight.

"And more. I got to marry you with my family watching. Tonight was absolutely perfect." She told him.

"It's going to get even more perfect than that, because once we get to the hotel, I get to finally ravish you as Mrs. Jones."

She blushed and kissed his hand. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"For giving me everything that I ever wanted."
