I'm laying there and I couldn't bear the pain anymore. I thought I was going to make it but I can't.  I'm staring at Leía and Liam, and they are in tears. It broke my heart to know that I'm causing them such pain. Why did this happen to me? They are both holding on to my hands, and aren't letting go. That's when I see Lacy walking in with Belle in her car seat and Ben at her side.

"Killian, are you ok?" I shake my head. "Kids, leave me alone with aunt Lacy." They all nod and walk out. Lacy puts Belle down and grabs my hand. "Killian I can call the doctor..." I smile. "It's useless now, I can feel myself drifting off." She shakes her head and starts to cry. "Killian you can't leave us." I smile.

"I wish I could stay but my body, it's not cooperating with me." She continues to cry. "Promise me you'll help Emma while I'm gone." She shakes her head. "No Killian you can't, you can't leave us, you need to meet Evan." I smile. "Oh my little Evan, my boy, make sure he knows that his daddy loved him so much." Lacy continues to cry. "Damn it Killian don't say that." I smile.

I sigh then felt like I was drifting away. "Emma's almost here Killian, Rhea just called me saying they are almost here just hold on." I nod and held tight on to Lacy'a hand. That's when I felt a relief go throughout my whole body, this was it. I start to close my eyes and memories of my life started to play out in my mind. I couldn't help but smile.

That's when I see Aaron. My time has come. "Welcome home daddy, I've missed you," he says and hugs me. I hug him and smile. That's when I hear muffled noises, it was Emma but it was too late, too late to say goodbye.

Emma's POV
My heart was racing, my love, I need to be with my love, God I was so dumb to leave him when he needed me the most. I guess I haven't changed at all. We finally arrived to the house, I told Damon and Gideon to bring the doctor as I make my way inside the house. I then ran towards my room and as soon as I opened the door I hear a flat line. "Killian, Killian!" Lacy shouts as she's shaking him.

I gasp and she turns around. "No, no, no.!" I scream. I ran up to him and started to shake him. "No baby, I'm sorry, my love please wake up," I say as I touch his face. He wasn't moving. I cried and placed my forehead against his. "Killian, my love don't leave me, I can't bear it again." I cried out. That's when Lacy touches my shoulder.

"Emma he's gone." I shake my head. "No!" I yell out. "Lacy kill me." She gasps. "What?" "You heard me, kill me, I want to join him, I can't be without him, I deserve to die." She shakes her head. "Emma, please you can't leave Leía, Liam, and Rhea and if you die you're going to kill Evan." I cried. "Damn it Lacy be a good friend and end my existence please....." I begged her. She continued to cry. "I will not kill you, I will never do that." I continued to sob.

Lacy turned off the monitor and I stood there staring at Killian. My prince, my partner, my love is gone for a second time but this time he's really gone. I then went and laid next to him and hugged him. Maybe if he feels me he will come back, it happened with Leía why can't it happen with Killian. I then called out for the kids.

They all walk in and gasped. "Come on, hug your dad, if he feels us, he will come back." Rhea ran towards us and laid on the other side of him. Leía went and hugged me touching his chest. Then Ben came and hugged Rhea and touched his chest as well. Belle sat at his feet and touched his legs. I sat up and stared at Liam who was just standing there in shock.

"Liam come and hug your father." He starts to cry. "Mom I messed up." I sighed and got up. "Don't stop hugging him," I say to everyone as I got up. "Mom, I'm sorry for what I said." I sighed. "It's ok." He shakes his head. "No I said hurtful things to you and I ended up killing dad, and I've been acting like I've been a good boy when I haven't." I gasp.

"What do you mean?" "I almost got kicked out of school, I've been doing drugs." I gasp. "I deserve to suffer." I hug him and he stared to cry. "It's ok my boy, we all make mistakes but how about you go and hug your father, I'm sure if he feels your love, he will come back." He nods and goes and hugs him. I look back and I see everyone hugging him. I look up and I continued to cry.

I can't raise Evan without Killian, he deserves to have his little boy at his side. Thats when the paramedics walk in and they ask us to move so they can take him. Everyone shakes their heads and stay put, that made me smile. "Please," they all said and everyone refused. They start to pull them away from Killian and they start to cry out. They managed to pull everyone away except Rhea.

"If daddy's dead then I am too," she says and buries her face in his neck, my did that break my heart. I walked up to her and caress her back. "Sweetie lets go," I say and she shakes her head. "No he will come back, daddy feels us, he felt us, he's coming back, please mommy, this was your idea." I sigh. "Can we just have some time to say goodbye," I ask one of the paramedics and he nods.

Everyone except Rhea, the twins, and I were in the room. This was a moment we needed, a moment alone so we can all say goodbye.....
