The Princess and The Pirate

The Hunt

Emma's POV

Me and Killian lie in his bed and I've never felt so happy. His arms are wrapped around my waist and I am stroking his chest. "Killian, can we talk?" I ask. He nods. 

"I'd prefer to have a small wedding. Is that okay?" I ask. He pulls me and pushes his lips against his. 

"I'd prefer that too." he says. I smile widely and kiss his chest. I examine my engagement ring and grin happily. 

"Do you like it?" he asks. 

"Yes! It's incredible! I love it so much!" I exclaim. 

"Not as incredible as you." I laugh and press my lips against his. I wrap my hand around his and smile. "It was my mother's ring. She gave it to me when she was dying." he explains, frowning. 

"I'm sorry." I say, rubbing his back. "It's okay. You're my family now." he says. I squeeze his hand. Am I really about to say this? 

"And maybe that family can grow? I've been thinking about our future and I know that I want to start a family with you." I say. "You want to start trying?" he asks. I nod and he kisses me fiercely. 

"I would love to start trying." he says. I am so excited for the future. My future with Killian. We are going to get married and have kids. And I can't wait. I stare into his beautiful eyes and I'm filled with so much joy. The curse was the last time we're going to separated. I moan. 

"What's the matter?" he asks, furrowing his brow. 

"There's one thing that's dampening the mood. Victoria. We need to stop her or I'm always going to be worrying about her trying to hurt us." I explain. He sighs and nods. 

"We should get back to the castle." I say. 

"I know." he says. He kisses the top of my head. "Come on, we can also share the good news." We get ready and then I transport us back to the castle. 

Holding hands, we walk in and try and find my parents and Henry. Mary-Margaret squeals at the sight of me. "Hey guys." I exclaim. 

"Hey Em. Hook." David says. 

"Soooo, what happened last night?" Mary-Margaret asked, smiling widely. I glance at Killian and smile. 

"We're engaged!" I exclaim. My Mom wraps her arms around me and pulls me into a tight hug. "Oh my god, I am so excited and happy for you!" she squeals. I look at David and he smiles softly. 

"That's great Mom!" Henry exclaims. 

"Yeah it is! I can't wait to start planning!" Mary-Margaret said. 

"We're going to wait a bit till we start planning. There's something we need to do first." They look shocked. "What?" Mary-Margaret gasps. 

"We need to take down Victoria. She hasn't attacked us since the curse, which probably means she's planning something big. We need to stop her once and for all." 

David nods. "How are we going to do that?" he asks. 

"As I said, to defeat Victoria, we need to know about her past. We need to get Killian's memories back. And I've been researching,  a way to steal specific memories from someone is with dream catchers. If we can sneak into Victoria's house, we might be able to find it." I explain. 

"That's not going to be easy." My Mom tells me. "I know." I say. 

"I might have an idea. We need to take a page out of Victoria's book. We need a spy on the inside. I know I can help Beth and I think I know where we can find her." Killian adds. We all agree that this is a good plan and me and Killian walk off in private.
