Baby Please Come Home

Real world AU where Killian and Emma have been married for almost a year now but the past five months Killian has been overseas serving for the Navy.

Emma sat silently on top of her bed and stared at the door. She had just gotten back from her parents loft where she had spent her Christmas.

She glanced over at the clock, her hope of her husband returning slowly deteriorating as she watched the clock  count down to midnight.

When the clock finally hit midnight, Emma swallowed her disappointment and laid back onto her pillow, clutching his in her arms.

It wasn't as if Killian had told her he would be back for Christmas or even at all for the holidays, but Emma was still hopeful. She was hopeful that she would be lying in bed and he would suddenly be beside her, that he would knock on her door Christmas morning and pull her into a seeing kiss, that he would somehow come home.

As the day passed Emma tried to hide her disappointment. This was the first year in four years that she would not be able to spend Christmas with him.

She ran her hands over a small wrapped box that that was lying on her bedside table and a single tear fell down her cheek.

She looked at the picture that was taken of them in their wedding day and sadly smiled. "Merry Christmas Killian." She whispered before letting herself drift off to sleep.

A few days later it was New year's Eve and Emma was once again hoping that her husband would return to her.

She decided against going to any parties, she didn't want to be with anyone but Killian right now.

Once again Emma sat on her couch desperately watching her front door in hopes that it would open and her deviously handsome husband would be waiting for her on their porch.

Silently she say for the rest of the night, she fought to keep her eyes open and eventually made herself some coffee to keep herself awake.

Just as Emma was about to admit defeat to herself, three knocks came from the other side of the door.

Emma's eyes widened and she stood in shock. Surely she was just hearing things, she thought to herself as she slowly approached the door.

Again, someone knocked on the door.

Emma couldn't help but grin, now she knew she wasn't imagining things.

She practically ran to the door and swing it open, ready to greet the love of her life when her features fell in disappointment at who stood on her porch.

Mary Margret stood with a sad look in her eyes as she offered Emma the bottle of champagne she was holding in her hands.

"I noticed you didn't come to the party so I thought I would bring this to cheer you up." Mary Margret said.

Emma bit her lip, trying to ignore the lump that was forming in her throat.

"Oh, thanks Mom." She said quietly accepting the bottle.

"Emma I know the holidays are hard but you know that Killian tried his hardest to get home to you."

Emma nodded, not being able to find any words to reply.

"I know you probably want to be alone so I'll leave you be. You know if you need us your father and I will come over at anytime. Even if you just want someone to sit with."

Emma smiled and thanked her mom despite knowing she wouldn't take them up on their offer.

Her mom left and Emma set the champagne in the fridge before giving up and going upstairs to bed.
