"Mom!" Exclaimed Henry.

"Kid!" Replied Emma after her and Killian walked down the aisle and the crowd started to disperse.

"I just wanted to say, I'm so proud of you."

"For what?"

"Finding love again." Henry hugged his mom and took off to go meet Violet.

A few hours later, after some of the people had left, and the dwarves were cleaning up, Killian and Emma decided to go back to her house.

Killian picked Emma up and walked through the door. The house was decorated and their wedding gifts sat on the dining room table. Killian threw Emma down on the couch, gently. He sat next to her and Emma leaned her head in on his shoulder.

"You know, love. I was thinking." Killian said.

"What?" Asked Emma.

"When I had Bealfire, or Neal, on the Jolly Roger, I had got this feeling. He felt like family. And honestly, I liked, loved that feeling of having someone to love. Besides you, love."

"What are you saying, Killian?" she asked.

"What I'm trying to say is, well, I want a family." He said.

"You do. You have me, and Henry-"

"And a child we can call our own." He finished.

Emma looked at him, in shock.

"Killian, I don't even know how to raise a kid! I gave my child up for adoption because I thought I could never be a good enough mother!" She fought back.

"But this time would be different, love. Our child will have a father! And you've found Henry and realized that was a mistake." He said.

Emma didn't say anything, but walked up stairs to her room. Killian followed.

"Don't you want to have a family? You, me, Henry and our child?" Killian asked.

"Yes! That is all I have ever wanted! To have a family! In the past four years, I have found my parents, my son, and my true love!" She exclaimed, exhausted from the day.

Emma then flopped down on the bed.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Neal! Happy birthday to you!" The crowd at Granny's sang in unison.

Granny handed Snow a small cake for two year old Neal to eat. She then came out with a bigger chocolate cake for the rest of the people.

"Can I hold him?" Asked Emma.

"Of course!" Snow replied. She put Neal in her arms.

"It has been a long time since I've held a baby," commented Emma. Snow pulled Emma into the back room by the jukebox.

"Well, I need to practice," Emma continued.

"Emma, what are you saying?" Questioned Snow.

Killian came over to the back room.

"You might want to get Dad over here." Emma told Snow as she handed Neal back to her.

David walked over, being gestured by Snow.

"What I'm saying is, well Hook and I didn't know when or how to tell you, but, here it goes. Killian and I are having a baby." Emma told her parents.

"Oh, Emma!" Snow hugged her daughter.

"That's amazing!" David exclaimed.

"We have to tell Henry!" Snow said.

"Wait, Mom! I want to tell him myself." Emma said as she grabbed her mom's arm.

"Yes, right."

After the party, Snow, David, Emma, Killian, Henry, Neal, and Regina went to the Charming's loft. Snow put Neal to bed, and they all sat in the main living area.

"That was an interesting party," commented Regina.

"We have some," Killian hesitated and looked over to Emma, "news."

"Killian and I are....expecting," Emma told everyone. Snow and David smiled , and Henry and Regina congratulated them.

"That's awesome, Mom!" Henry told Emma.

"Do you know, if um, it is a boy or girl, yet?" Asked Regina.

"Yes-" started Emma.

"-it's a girl." Finished Killian.
