Emma's P.O.V:

When I wake up, a pair of warm arms are wrapped around my waist, holding me close. I smile, relishing in the moment. I close my eyes again, simply enjoying Killian's company. He breathes in deaply, his eyes fluttering open, and he looks down at me with a smile.

"Morning, love, did you have a good sleep?" he asks with a yawn.

"The best," I answer, pulling his lips gently to mine.

"Mmm," he moans, rolling us over so he's on top of me.

"Back to work today huh?" I say as we sit up.

"Aye, you're coming back, finally. It'll be much more enjoyable working with you there beside me."

"Mhm, well likewise. I prefer having the people I care about close by," I say smirking. He cocks an eyebrow, pulling my lips softly to his. I sigh contently. He's perfect. I rest my forehad on his, planting a few more kisses on his lips.

"What?" I ask as he stares at me, deep into my eyes. He shakes his head, smiling.

"I just... never thought I'd have this. I never thought I'd be happy like this," he tells me, his hand brushing my cheek gently. 

"Me neither," I whisper. I lean in, kissing him gently, wrapping my arms around him, losing myself in him. We sit in a tangle, feeling eachother close.

"I love you," he whispers, his lips barely parting mine. I pull away, stunned.

"What?" I ask, a smile playing on my face.

"I know you're not ready to say it yet, Emma, and that's okay. I respect that. I love you," he tells me. "I think we both know we've waited far too long to truely be together, and now that we are, I can understand what I've known since the moment I laid eyes on you. I love you, Emma," he says, his hand in my hair. I stare at him, moved and speechless. I know I love him too, it's a fact. And you know what? I damn well deserve this after all I've been through. He loves me, I can see it in his eyes. It's about time he knows that he's not alone. I look up, straight into those smoldering blue eyes.

"I love you too," I tell him, grinning. 

"Aye, I understand that you won't- wait what?"

"You heard me, I love you too," I say laughing. His face lights up like a five year old on Christmas. He grins, crashing his lips to mine. We lose oursleves in eachother, kissing until neither of us can breathe, oxygen being the last thing on our minds.

"Love," Killian mutters, pressing a few more kisses to my lips. "If we don't stop now I'll never let you see the light of day again, you'll be stuck in my arms."

"I'm okay with that," I say with a smile, connecting our lips again.

"Emma," he says, pulling away with a laugh.

"Mmm fine," I relent, giving him one last deep kiss.

"Now, shall we?" he asks, getting out of bed. But I grab his hand pulling him back.

"Do we have to go just yet?" I ask, biting my lip.

"Well... not right away, we've got till six pm, I only figured we'd get an early start at the day, spend it together. It's 10:00 now, so..."

"Well then why don't we do something a bit more... enjoyable?" I suggest, trailing my fingers up and down his chest.

"Emma..." he groans, but I can tell he wants to.
