Emma woke up to an 8:15 AM alarm and gently silenced it. It felt like she'd been up all night. Although, that was probably because she was dreaming so much. She couldn't stop thinking about Killian Jones, the man who let go of his first love when he found Emma, the man who came back to save her in New York, the man who traded his ship for her. Killian always said his ship was his home, and she knew that you don't just give up your home for nothing. He did it for love, and she believed that he loved her. The question was, did she love him too?

Emma got out of bed and made her way to the door. She stopped when she heard a conversation on the other side. She knew that voice. Killian was talking to Henry. She was a bit startled at his presence in her apartment, but she wasn't at all angry.

She opened the door in her pajamas and found Henry and Killian sitting on the couch. They turned around to find Emma smiling at the two of them.

"Morning, Mom!" Henry grinned.

"Hey kid."

She then focused her eyes on Killian. "Hello, love."

Emma couldn't help but notice how handsome he looked. She laughed in her head remembering all the times he referred to himself as "devilishly handsome." Now, she couldn't agree more. There was just something weirdly sexy abou-

"EHEM." Henry coughed, interrupting the staring of the other two people in the room.

Killian and Emma turned their heads toward him. "What?" they both asked. Henry rolled his eyes, "Nothing," he laughed.

"So, Killian, What might you be doing here this early?" Emma wondered.

"Uh, well, I thought I would share our adventure in the Enchanted Forest yesterday with your boy. It was quite the adventure, wasn't it?" He smirked.

Emma immediately thought about all the time she spent with Killian yesterday. It was so wonderful seeing her home, and having him with her. "Yeah, it was really amazing," she responded while grabbing a glass of water.

"So, you interrupted Snow and Charming meeting, then you met Killian in the past, then watched Snow almost die, then she turned herself into a ladybug, all with assistance of Rumplestiltskin, and somehow, everything's the same?" Henry stated, realizing how awesome that sounded.

Emma and Killian laughed. "Like I said, my boy. Quite the adventure," Killian glanced at Emma with soft eyes.

She responded with a smile and then thought about Henry again. "So, Henry," she said happily, wanting to stare at Killian more, "What do you feel like doing today?"

"Hmm...could we go to the park?" he asked hopefully.

"Whatever you want kid," Emma smiled.

"Killian, can you come to?" Henry asked.

"Uh, sure if you want. I'd be fine with that," Killian responded, surprised at the invitation.

"Breakfast at Granny's on the way?" Emma suggested.

"Sounds good." Henry replied.

"Be ready in ten minutes, okay?"

"Okay!" Henry shouted as he ran off to go get dressed.

As he dashed up the stairs, Killian and Emma were left alone downstairs. "So, Killian," Emma peered at him with suspicious eyes.

"Swan," he replied with a smile, standing up, making his way towards her.

"Did you really come all the way over here at eight o'clock in the morning to tell Henry a story?"

"Well, when you say it like that, it sounds silly," he said, decreasing the distance between them.
