My One & Only *Swan Queen Fanfiction*

Why It's Taken Me So Long...

EMMA

Thirty minutes later, I was home waiting for Killian to arrive. I was really tense and was trying to massage my fingers trying to calm myself down. I wasn't sure how this might play out but it needed to be done. Just then there was a knock at the door, I yelled out for Killian to come in.

"Hi Love." He said as he reached over to kiss me. I turned my head slightly so his kiss landed on my cheek.

"Ahh... hi Killian."

"How are you? Are you and Hope finally coming home?"

I gestured for him to come in and sit on the sofa. "No Killian, I already told you that you and I are over." He looked stunned. "I don't love you, I don't think I ever did." I was breathing fast as if I was about to hyperventilate.

"What do you mean, you never did? You chose me over your heart in the Underworld Emma, if that is not a sign of true love then what was it?"

"That was me being the Savior. I have put many lives before mine, but this time I am putting myself first and I'm sorry but I would like a divorce. We can work some arrangement out about Hope." I was trying to hold my tears in as I saw his heart breaking right in front of me, as if he had pulled it out of his own chest and held it in his hand before me. 

"I came here thinking I would be taking you both home." He let out a big sigh then sat down. "What happened between us love? We were happy, what did I do?"

"I thought I was happy Killian, I thought I had found my happy ending but then recently I realized that it wasn't, it wasn't my happy ending because I am not with my true love."

"Your true love? If I'm not your true love then who the hell is he? Who is he, Emma? I'm going to kill him." I could see the anger of the old Hook spawning its head.

"No, you are not, you will not touch this person Killian so help me... I will..." 

He took a deep breath and exhaled.

"I'm sorry lass, I just thought that we were happy, I was happy and now... it's coming to an end. Do you truly love this person?"

I looked him in the eyes and nodded.

He sighed. "Okay, I accept that. All I ever wanted was for you to be happy." He smiled at me and placed his hand upon me. "Can I ask one more question?"

"Sure."

"Is it Regina?" He asked softly. I nodded, a second later I started panicking.

"Don't you dare hurt..." I started to scream before he cut me off.

"Stop it Swan! I will not touch a hair on her perfect head. I always thought there was something there between you two but I could never put my hook on it." He smiled. "Does she know?"

"No."

"Then Emma, if you want your happy ending, you best do something about it."  This is why I loved this man because he always wanted what was best for me.  I just feel great remorse that I cannot love him any more than I do my brother Neal. 

"But, what if she doesn't feel the same way? If I tell her and she denies me there is every possibility that it could ruin our friendship and I cannot take that chance, I will not. I don't know how I will live without her in my life." I started to cry and Hook pulled me in to hug me.

I was still crying on Hooks shoulder when Regina walked in, she came rushing over to the couch towards us.
