Emma sat in silence, staring in wonder at him. How had she completely missed it? She was usually so perceptive, especially since her former line of work demanded it on a daily basis. His ship? He gave up his ship? To save her? To save Henry? To save...

"I think perhaps, we had best move back inside. Your family will be looking for you in a bit Love, and I have no desire to explain to David what we were doing out here." He paused, assessing her reaction to his comment. When she didn't respond immediately, he continued, "Who doesn't love a good naming ceremony after a trip back in time? He is your brother after all. " He grinned at her as he stood and offered her a hand.

Emma appreciated what he was doing. He knew that she would, for lack of better phrase, freak out, and was giving her a way out without hurting anyone's feelings. She knew he didn't want to hear her say it was a one time thing again, just as surely as she knew it wasn't a one time thing. Their relationship had changed over the course of the last few months, and she couldn't ignore it anymore. However, that did not mean she was going to jump into a relationship discussion with Killian right away. She needed time to figure it all out. She grasped his extended hand, and they walked back into Granny's to celebrate Neal.

Standing at the door, Emma felt content as she watched everyone inside Granny's. She could not remember the last time she felt this way, maybe she never had. She walked with Killian to the counter and sat next to him as he spoke with the woman they had brought back from the past. When he saw her following him, he raised an eyebrow at her and looked at Snow and David. She shrugged her shoulders and grinned at him. He smiled back and returned his attention to the woman. She was going to have to get some answers from her soon so she could help her adjust to a new life in Storybrooke.

Just as Emma was about to ask her some questions, Regina walked in with Robin and Roland. When it became apparent that Robin not only knew the woman, but that she was his wife, Emma felt her heart in her throat. She was overwhelmed and could think of nothing to say to Regina besides I'm sorry, which she knew was meaningless to her at the moment. She had caused this pain in Regina's life, the same way Snow had all those years before. She could only stand there.

She was brought out of her thoughts when she heard Henry yelling "Mom! Mom! Wait!" as he ran by her. He looked to Emma, silently asking permission. Emma wasn't sure what to do. She knew that Regina was upset, and she knew she had every right to be. She also knew that an upset Regina could be a very dangerous Regina. She immediately pushed that thought aside. She knew that Regina would never hurt Henry. She nodded and Henry ran out the door, still yelling after Regina.

Emma walked over to the table where her parents were sitting and practically fell into the seat. She put her head on the table and closed her eyes. She felt a hand on her shoulder, and she slid over expecting Snow to be there comforting her. When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was actually Killian, looking slightly uncomfortable to be touching her like that in front of her parents. This wasn't an innuendo, a joke or anything like it, this was him taking care of her, and she and everyone else looking at them knew it. His hand came off her shoulder very slowly and he put it on the table in front of him.

Snow leaned over, and placed a hand over his. She took a deep breath and they knew they were in for one of her speeches. His eyes widened in surprise, but he remained quiet.

"It is ok," she said. That was it. She patted his hand and looked at David, almost daring him to contradict her. When David said nothing, Killian stood, bowed to them all, and walked out the door.
