I went back home and my parents asked me about Killian. I explained everything and they understood and I went to my room and locked the door. I just wanted to be alone for a while. I put some music on loudly and I place my hand on my chest and I feel the necklace Killian gave me. My eyes start to water and I wipe them, trying my best not to cry. I wanted nothing more than to be with Killian but with my head in a big mess, I didn't want to be constantly doubting him. My phone starts ringing and I answer.

"Hello?" I say.
"Hey, we've just spoken to Killian. Everything okay?" It was Skylar.
"Apart from my head fucking things up, yeah." I say sarcastically.
"Want us to come over?" She asks.
"Not right now. I need to be alone." I answer.
"Okay. Well, just ring us if you need us." Skylar says.
"Okay." I say then hang up.

I curl up and let my heart pour out.

*3 months later*

I wake up to my alarm and start getting dressed. I had an appointment with my counsellor today. I had been seeing her for the past 2 months and I was getting better everyday. I had kept in contact with everyone but Killian. Apparently, he hasn't been himself since the day we split and I feel awful. I leave the house and catch the bus just on time. I put on my headphones and zone out. When I get to my destination, I get off the bus and head into the building. I head up to the counsellors room and take off my headphones. We start talking about how I've been for the past week and talk about mine and Killian's situation. About 20 minutes into the conversation, there's a knock on the door.

"That would be our guest." The counsellor says.

Guest? She didn't mention anything about a guest. She opens the door and I see the one person I wanted most. I stand up and take a step forward.

"Killian." I say in disbelief.

He says nothing but instead, opens his arms. I hug him immediately and his arms wrap around me protectively. I feel my heart open up again and the emotions flood. I hear a door close and Killian pulls away.

"It's really you." I say, smiling.
"Aye love, it is." Killian says.
"But how did you know I'd be here?" I ask, confused.
"Skylar told me you'd be here. I thought I'd surprise you." He answers.

I smile and shake my head.

"It's definitely been a while." I say, looking at him.
"Aye. Far too long." He says, taking a step closer.

My heart races and I don't move. I didn't know if I was scared or nervous or both. He gently grabs one of my hands and his hook gently brushes against my cheek. The cool metal makes me shiver and I lean into it.

"Killian." I say softly.

He shushes me and gently kisses me. I freeze in shock and then I kiss back. We pull away and my cheeks heat up.

"Please come back, love. It's been too long." Killian says.
"I want to. I really want to." I say, frowning a little.
"But you don't want to face us." He says.

I turn away.

"It's not that I don't want to. I can't." I answer.
"And why's that?" Killian asks.
"Because I don't want to hurt anyone anymore!" I shout, turning to face him.
"We're returning to Storybrooke." He says.
"Then go without me. I miss you all but I'm not ready yet. Until I'm happy with myself, I'm not returning." I say, a tear rolling down my cheek.

I didn't want them to go but if that's what they want then it's up to them but I wasn't leaving home until I was okay again. Killian reaches into his pocket and hands me a small little bottle with a bit of water at the bottom.

"If you need us, pour the liquid on the ground and speak your message into the bottle and mention us. We'll come back when you need us." He says.

I nod and he walks out. I grab my things and leave, thanking the counsellor for everything. I put my headphones back on and blast my music loudly. I started to feel guilty about shouting at Killian and I couldn't shake the feeling off. I hop on a bus and it soon takes off. I knew where I needed to be. The bus arrives shortly at my destination; the beach. My brain was saying that I was making a mistake but my heart couldn't handle being away from everyone. I still see the Jolly Roger and I quickly run on the beach. I text my mom, telling her about what I was doing and she was okay with it. I ran as fast as I could to the ship. When I approach the ship, I see Skylar and Zoe getting on and they haven't noticed me yet.

"Room for one more?" I ask, smiling.

Skylar turns around and smiles.

"I'm sure there is." She says.

I walk on the ship with them and I see Killian look out at the sea. I slowly walk up to him and I see my sword off to the side. I smirk and went with my idea. I quietly grab my sword and put it around his neck.

"Room for one more, captain." I say, smirking.

He removes my sword from his neck and turns around.

"There's always room, M'lady." He says, smiling a little.

I put my sword down and hug him. He wraps his arms around me.

"Welcome back, love." Killian says.

We pull away and I smile. 

"Next stop, Storybrooke." I say.

We go on to the main deck and Regina chucks a bean into the water. Killian steers the ship and we head into the portal. If only we knew what would happen next.
