The first time I saw this, I only let out one tear. The second time I saw this, I was full blown crying. If you love Captainswan you will watch this. If you're a hardcore Captianswan fangirl/shipper, you will sob.

Emma's POV
It was close to Valentine's Day, February 13 to be exact, and I was a little excited. This time, I actually have a boyfriend that I can spend it with this year. Killian is stressing because the all the games that determine if they play in the championship are coming up. It's killing Dad too. Maybe Valentine's will take a little weight off their shoulders and let them ease up. Killian doesn't really want anything, but I'm getting him a huge box of the chocolate truffles that he loves. He like adores them! Who knew someone could like chocolate so much? (*ehem* me!) He has been leaving me these sweet little notes everywhere, just things like I love you, and you're beautiful. They're not much, but it's still really sweet. I'm trying to cherish the time that I have with him, I don't know what we'll do after high school. College wasn't an option for me before, but now that I have a family, I can go. I'm thinking about going to Storybrooke University because it's close, and a bunch of my friends will be there. It really is a great school. One of the things they have to offer is for a social worker, which is something I might want to do. I got a text from Killian,
Killian: meet me at sunset hills tomorrow at 6

Emma: ok. What should I wear

Killian: what u normally do

Emma: that's not helpful 🙄

Killian: 😂 I'm sure u'll figure it out

Killian: love u 😘

Emma: love u 2 😘
I clicked my phone off, ready to pick out what to wear. I'm just gonna go with a nice but casual blue dress, that's knee length.

Killian's POV
I know I have been a little distant with Swan lately, but it's only because of football. I really want to win again, it's our last year of high school. I'm gonna make it up to her. First with her favorite flowers, and then with something that will go around her finger.

Emma's POV
It was 4:30 when I started to get ready. I curled my hair and put on some makeup, then I slipped my dress on. I put on some flats because I do not want to be in heels at Sunset Hills. By the time I was done with everything it was 5:45. Perfect timing. I went to our spot by the swans and gasped. There was a table set for two, rose petals scattered, and candles everywhere. I could already feel the tears springing to my eyes, and my hand went to cover my mouth,

"Killian," I started doing that weird laugh/crying thing as he walked over to me,

"No need to cry love," I hugged him,

"It's just, no one has ever done this for me before," he wiped the single tear that has strayed, and smiled,

"Come on love, before the food gets cold," he made me dinner!

"What's on the menu tonight?" He chuckled,

"Ravioli, salad, and New York styled cheesecake," I nearly moaned at the sound of all that good food. After we ate, he handed me a bouquet of my favorite flowers, orchids,

"Killian these are so beautiful!" I breathed in that sweet smell of orchids, and got out his gift,

"What's this?" He asked. I smiled,

"Well, I know how much you love chocolate-" he basically ripped open the box when I said chocolate. I started laughing. He popped a truffle in his mouth and kissed me. I moaned, tasting chocolate on his tongue is really arousing. He pulled away and made sure I was facing him,

"That's not all love," there's more?"I know I have been a little distant because of football, but I hope this makes up for it," he pulled off the necklace that has a ring on it. I was shocked,

"Woah, woah, woah," I said,

"Calm down Swan, I'm not proposing," I wasn't too opposed to the idea, "This is a promise ring, telling you that even if I'm not with you 24/7, you can always count on it that I'm yours. And maybe one day it will be real, and we can even have q family together," I smiled and kissed his lips,

"I love you Jones,and I would love to have a family with you,"I hugged him hard,

"I love you more than you could know Swan," sadly, it was time to go home. He gave me a long goodbye kiss before I went inside. I put my orchids in a vase and headed upstairs. That night, I lay awake holding the ring to my heart, wondering how I had gotten so lucky.

Author's POV
Killian was going home with his earplugs in. They were turned up all the way, so naturally, he couldn't hear anything. It was dark, so he missed the sign that said the road wasn't safe. He couldn't hear the pleading screams of the people begging him not to drive any further. Luckily, there was a wolf in the road so he didn't swerve off the nearly invisible cliff, but crashed into a tree. Then all he knew was darkness.

Emma's POV
I woke up at eleven pm with a jolt. There was this stabbing feeling in my chest, like my heart refused to keep working. I ran downstairs and saw my six month pregnant mother crying, and my dad with a solemn look on his face,

"Guys what's wrong?" I turned to see Brennan red-faced from crying,

"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!?!?" They stayed silent. The whole football team was here, and all of my friends. Ruby hugged me,

"I don't understand what's happening," I realized that one team member was missing. The Captain. I started to panic,

"Guys where's Killian?" They all looked like they were at a funeral. Those who weren't crying looked like they were about to,

"SOMEBODY BETTER FUCKING ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW! WHERE THE HELL IS MY BOYFRIEND!" August put his arms around my shoulders and sat me down. Ruby and Belle each grabbed one of my hands. My mom spoke up,

"Emma, this is very hard for us to tell you," I was so scared right now. Robin knelt down in front of me and looked up at me with tears in his eyes,

"He would've wanted you to have this," it was Killian's first trophy he won for best Captain of the year. I put my hands over my mouth. Dad looked at me,

"Killian was in a car crash," I let the tears fall as Jeff continued,

"There was blood everywhere," I started sobbing more than I ever had in my life. Victor looked at me as a tear rolled down his face,

"They didn't see a body, but a hand," I collapsed onto the ground off my seat. Will looked at me while crying,

"I'm sorry li'l miss, your b-boyf-friends d-d-dead," my hands started shaking and I couldn't hear the are you ok Emma's or the do you need a moments. I banged my fists against the floor repeatedly and screamed as hard as I could,

"KILLIAN!" By now everybody was crying. I pulled out my ring and whispered to it, "We were gonna get married, have kids, build a life together. And now it's all gone, all gone," I kept whispering one little phrase to myself for the rest of the night,

"He's not dead,"
