~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emma paced around her bedroom, trying to figure out what the hell she was supposed to wear. All her nice clothes were still in New York as she hadn't yet finished moving to Storybrooke.

Mary Margaret had offered to share some her dresses with Emma, but they weren't the same size. Emma had a date in an hour with Killian. There was a knock on her bedroom door and she answered to see it was her mother.

"I found this. Though you might like it," Snow said, handing Emma a form-fitting, v-neck black dress. "Wow, mom, thanks! Like, really, this is really nice," Emma said, hugging her mother.

Snow returned the hug. She left the room so Emma could get ready. An hour later, Emma came out of her room with the knee length dress on, her long blonde hair in soft curls and she looked like the princess she denied she was to Killian who was there to pick her up.

"Well, Swan, don't you look beautiful," he said with a smirk. "Me?!?" She replied playfully, "I never thought I'd get you out of that leather getup!" She exclaimed, gesturing to the black suit he was wearing.

Killian smiled, took her hand and lead her out of the apartment. "Have fun!" Snow called after them as they left. "So, where are we going, Jones?" Emma asked once they got downstairs. "Now why would I tell you that and ruin the surprise?" Killian asked.

Emma laughed and followed him. They were walking down the streets of Storybrooke together, hand in hand. He still wouldn't tell her where they were going. When they arrived at the docks, Killian led her on to a beautifully lit fishing boat.

It had Christmas lights strung across the rail and lanterns everywhere. There was a round table for two in the middle of the deck with a lit candle in the middle. "I dreamed about doing this for you on the Jolly Roger, but alas...," Killian trailed off.

Emma started to tear up. "It's perfect. Thank you," she looked into his deep blue eyes, her own watery. "You're perfect," Killian replied, gently wiping her tears away and leading her toward the table.

After he pulled her chair out for her and sat down himself, he smiled at her. "What?" She asked with a smile. "I just can't believe I finally get this. You," Killian smiled happily. Emma returned the smile and took his hand in her own. "Believe it," she said.

After sharing a plate of spaghetti provided by Granny's, they sat on the docks, their feet in the water and arms around each other looking up at the stars. "Thank you," Emma turned to look at Killian.

"For this, for being there for me... for everything," she put her head on his shoulder. She liked being in love, she decided. "No," Killian said, "thank you. For making me a better man. For actually agreeing to come with me tonight. I know your mother wanted it," Killian stroked her hair.

"I didn't come because of my mom," Emma said, "I came because you were right. You won it," She continued. "Won what?" Killian asked. "My heart," Emma replied.
