A/N: So sorry for the delay guys but... exams!
Here is @Emma_Swan_ 's request with Emma having a nightmare on the Jolly and Killian comforting her. I tried to mix some things and include s6 in it. I hope you like the result!

(Emma)
Emma covered her eyes as the light appeared. It was Killian's straggling screams that made her look up again. The tears started to stream down her face before even realizing it as she watched his eyes turn red and his body be pushed away. After one more strong light in front of her eyes, there they were. Two parts of a self poetically looking at each other with awe. It was strange even for her. Watching Killian Jones and Captain Hook separated. She met him as both, she loved him as both and she never would have asked for him to change. But she couldn't abandon him at this either.
Once Killian learned about Regina and her separation from the Evil Queen, Emma was catching him lost on his thoughts more and more often. She decided to let him fight it himself at first but as the time was passing and his lost moments became even more she couldn't do this.
She asked him one night as they were laying side by side on their bed. It took him some time to answer but he finally did and they'd spent lots of nights talking together since then. She kept hearing about the bad things Captain Hook had done. How it had nothing to do with who Killian Jones were and he even didn't know how it was possible for them to be the same person. She tried to reassure him. To explain to him that Killian Jones was never buried deep enough and that's why he fell in love with her in the first place but he insisted that he was dead for centuries and brought back after their meeting. He did say that after his trip to the Underworld he knew the feeling and that yes, the innocent Killian Jones had died along with his brother and his worse self in the hug of his first love; when Captain Hook was born.
She knew she wouldn't make him believe in her words. It wasn't a matter of love anymore. He knew how much she loved him. He even trusted himself to say that he had a family and people who cared for him. But still... still these nights became longer and longer and his self-loathing strong enough to make him drown. She couldn't let him drown. Hence, she decided to help him get rid of the worst enemy of his. He tried to tell her that he could do this alone but she made it clear him clear that she wouldn't leave him alone in this, even if she couldn't do much.
Killian's gasp broke through her thoughts as Hook's sardonic laughing filled the room. "Someone could say you're scared of me." He said sarcastically and she held her breath, wondering how long might take.
"Bloody hell, stop looking at me like this. Why are you like this?"
His air was long caught in his lungs and he stood completely still against his very self, looking at him with awe and yes, fear. "Why are you like this?" He whispered, and as Emma knew, trying to understand how he let himself become so lost all those years ago.
"Sorry to disappoint you but if I'm one thing... that's you. I. am. you." His low voice made Killian shiver, thankfully not enough to be noticed from Hook. "No." He fought back. "You're not me."
"Oh aren't I?" Hook asked smiling and Killian briefly closed his eyes in the view of this so similar to him man. "Ok, look. I know we two never got really along with each other but... don't try to fool yourself mate. We're one. And this isn't going to stop." He emphasized his last sentence again and Killian seemed ready to break down. A glance at his eyes was all she needed to realize it. He felt weak. He didn't know if he could do this. He wanted it more than anything but no matter Emma's efforts to persuade him how strong he was...he just believed he wasn't. Hook made two steps forward and he watched him fighting not to back away. And he didn't. "Did you really thought of destroying me?" He said with fake hurt in his eyes which immediately turned to anger. "I was with you centuries more than anyone. And you want to destroy me for what? For who?"
