The Most Unexpected Things Happen - Killian Jones FanFic

Chapter 36 - Piece By Piece

Before a word could be exchanged, Leo had disappeared once again. I turn to face Killian and I see that there are mixed emotions written on his face.

"Killian? It's me." I say, smiling a little bit.

Killian smiled and I could see his body relax. I smile back, feeling my emotions overwhelm me. I was finally back but the question was, did I want to be back? I preferred Blake's memories over my own, even if they aren't real. My smile faded and I look down at the ground.

"Jasmine? Love?" Killian says.
"Killian..." I say quietly.
"What's wrong, love?" He asks, taking my hands in his.
"I don't want to be back. I prefer Blake's life." I mutter.

He hugs me close to him and I hug back, hugging tightly.

"We'll get through this, I know we will. Now let's get Skylar and Zoe. We need to find a way out." Killian says, pulling back, smiling.
"Wait, they have their memories?" I ask, a little happier.
"They have for a while. It's just, none of us knew how to tell you." He answers.
"It's okay, don't apologise. I'd probably be the same." I admit, chuckling.

He smiles at me and I couldn't help but smile brightly at him. Man, I was so lucky to have him in my life.

"Let's get the girls. We can sort a plan out once they're here." I say, grabbing Killian's hand and I go to run for the door but he stops me.

I turn to face him and he brings me in close, kissing me. I kiss back and wrap my arms around him. We pull back and lean our foreheads against eachother.

"Welcome back, love." He whispers, smiling.

We leave the apartment and head to Skylar's apartment. I knock on the door and soon enough, she answers with Zoe by her side.

"Hey Blake." Skylar says.
"I think you mean 'Hi Jasmine.'" I correct her, smiling.

She looks happy and hugs me immediately, me hugging her back.

"Welcome back bro." She says, pulling away.
"Bro." Zoe says, laughing at Sky.
"Babs, no." Sky says.

We enter the apartment and shut the door, locking it behind us.

"How did you get your memories back?" Zoe asks.
"Leo showed up and that triggered her memories." Killian explains.
"Wait, what happened after that?" Skylar asks.
"He teleported away. He obviously wasn't expecting me to get my memories back so soon." I say, shrugging my shoulders.

We discussed a few other things then we made a plan to get everyone else out of here before it got ugly but it was going to take us some time because we didn't want people flying off the radar so quickly.

"Since Leo knows me and Killian have our memories, you two will have to search for a border, so we know where we're taking people. As soon as you find it, send me the location and we can slowly start sending people there." I explain.
"Will this work?" Zoe asks.
"There's no guarantee but it's worth a shot. We need Emma and Regina back first so Killian will get Emma from the hospital and I can get Regina. Once we get them back, you can take in turns with them for border watch. We can't let the wrong people out." I answer, adding more to the plan.
"You thought of the plan quickly, love." Killian says.
"I guess it's natural for me." I say, shrugging.

We decide to order some food because we were all hungry. I check the time and see it's 4:25pm. We chill out and put the TV on, none of us really watching it. The room was silent, apart from the chatting coming from the TV. I was cuddled into Killian, letting my emotions be felt. I was feeling happy to be back but at the same time, I felt a little sad because the memories were hurting slightly. Blake was given an easy life with barely no problems but with the murder cases, she was obviously interested. She was a risk taker and didn't care about what happened to her. Me? I'm the opposite. I didn't like taking risks and I always cared about what happened to me and those around me. The doorbell rings and Skylar gets up to answer it taking her wallet with her. I hear her exchange a few words then shuts the door, coming back in with some pizza's and burger boxes.

"I didn't realize we ordered so much." I say.
"Well, none of it will go to waste." Zoe says.
"It sure won't." I say, chuckling.

I nod in agreement and everyone grabs their pizza and burger and starts eating. Once again, the room was filled with silence, everyone watching the TV. It was some random drama show which none of liked but only watched it because there was nothing else to watch.
Life was only going to get more difficult from here. We had to get all our friends and find our way out of this town without getting stopped or caught. We had to take our time as if we did it quickly, Leo would know something is definitely up. I may have confronted him before but this was different. My friends and myself were risking our lives to save everyone we love before things got out of hand. If it comes down to it, I'll sacrifice myself to save everyone. Yes, it's a risky move but I'm not going to let everyone suffer. I don't even know why he brought us here in the first place but it was a stupid move.  If he wanted me to forget everything and have me all to himself, why didn't he just teleport me to a secret place where no one could've found me? He never thinks clearly about his plans, that much is clear. He was bringing innocent people into this battle but there was no need for it. This would be a battle between me and Leo and in the end, if I died, at least I would've died a hero.

A/N: Sorry it's been so long since the last update :( I've been dealing with mental health issues which has caused me to lose all motivation but more recently, I've had ideas and motivation so I'm trying my best to make a comeback. Stay tuned!!
