My Captain

The Proposal

*Killian's POV *

I spent the entire rest of the day with Henry and David,  trying desperately to make everything perfect. They mostly just laughed at my nerves. I mean,  what if I was rushing things? Would she say no? Maybe I'll just be sure she knows that we don't have to rush the wedding.  I just want her to know how much I love her...

Before I knew it, it was 6:30. Henry and David went home, wishing me luck, and leaving me to my thoughts.

*Emma's POV *

I spotted him instantly. Not overly difficult when there's only one person at the docks, but still. He was staring at the water from the bench we usually claimed. He looked lost in thought as I sat next to him. He took my hand as we sat in the lovely silence.

He finally looked over at me and grinned. He stood without a word and led me to our usual pier, except it was completely transformed. Twinkle lights were strung around the entire thing, lighting up the night. The worn planks if wood were hidden by what had to be thousands of rose petals. I turned to look at him, shocked, only to find him down on a knee with a wide grin on his face and a nervous look in his eyes. He held the most beautiful ring I'd ever seen.

"Emma, the day I met you, I started it Like any other, but ended with love in my heart for the first time in centuries. I never thought I could feel again after my first love, but you proved me very wrong. I know it's a bit fast, but we don't have to do anything right away. I just needed to do this and show you that I love you and I'm not going anywhere. So what do you say Swan? Marry me?" As the words fell out of his mouth, tears fell from my eyes. Was this really happening?

All I could do was nod, smiling through the tears. His smile grew and he leapt up, sliding the ring on my finger before pulling me into his arms. I'd never been so happy!

*Killian's POV *

I did as David suggested and just said what was in my heart, and I saw tears in her eyes. Good or bad? She was silent a moment, but when she nodded with that beautiful smile on her face, I thought I'd explode. She was mine- forever. I'd never been so happy!
