Emma and Her Happily Ever After

Summary: Emma will never admit she dreamt of fairytales, adventures and Prince Charming of her own to sweep her off of her feet. But she got all of them in the form of Killian Jones and she couldn't wished for more.

Emma looked around the benches over the football field of the Storybrooke's High School division. Eyes searching for her excited kids—who left early, like four hours early before the game starts. She found Ava waving from the side of the fields; Emma waved back, put out her phone and took a picture of Ava in her cheerleading outfit and pompoms on. She let out a laugh when Ava posed goofily.

Afterwards she pointed over the other side of the field where Nicholas sat with the rest of the football team. He grinned nervously at her, she gave him a two thumbs up and mouthed 'Good luck' and an 'I love you.' He nodded, now with a confident smile on his face. Oh, how grown her twins looked, she reminded herself not to cry, this wasn't their first day at school back in first grade, they're in high school now.

Not long after, she found the rest of her kids on the topmost bench, all wearing a smile in their faces and holding out signs that say, 'Go, Storybrooke Royals!' , 'Nicholas, fight! Win!' and 'Ava, you're the star!'. Emma chuckled a bit at Roland screaming and shouting support for his brother and sister. After announcing her presence, she sat down between Henry and Dorothy.

"Mom, where's Killian?" Henry asked as he munches on his popcorn, the obvious sign of puberty reaching now to his voice and his...appetite. Emma raised a brow at him as he simultaneously eat popcorn, hot dog and gulp down coke for a second. Shaking her head she looked at her wristwatch. "He said he might be running late, don't worry he'll be here soon." She said and grin back at Henry, she messes up his hair and look back over the fields.

It has been three years since she met Killian and two since they become official. The kids were ecstatic, finally there's someone who will take care of the best mother in the world. But it was still quite a journey, winning their hearts and trust (though it was really obvious they were already smitten of him as Emma was) Killian admitted it was pretty hard to earn hers but it was all worth it. She finally found someone to equally share the love she has for the kids, to look after her, to fill the hole in her heart, to love her...to be a part of a team.

It was almost half-time when she felt the absence of warmth beside her. She found Henry, Dorothy, Bambi, Melody and Roland going down the stairs. "Hey, kids, where are you going?"

"To buy snacks, Mom. Just wait over there, we'll be back in a minute." Dorothy answered pushing her brothers and sisters further down the stairs.

Emma was about to retort back, but she got distracted when she saw Nicholas getting tackled in the field. She stood up in concern and to find out if he was alright. She sighed in relief when he finally got out of the pile of bodies and looked over to her, smiling. They proceed the game and when she remembered the others, her kids were already gone.

What are they up to now?

When the first half of the game finished, Emma decided to look for her missing kids and give them an earful.

She was on her last step of the stairs when she noticed all seven of them in the middle of the field, facing her, each one of them holding sign boards.

And one by one, they raise them up for her to see...

Henry holding out a "Hey, Swan" (She smiles)

Ava, wiping her eyes with "I love you" (...wider)

Nicholas grinning "Irrevocably, irretrievably" (She's shaking her head chuckling)

Dorothy waving hers "Unconditionally" (she let out an 'aww')

Melody biting her lips "Will" (Emma gapes)

Bambi jumping up and down "You" (Emma gasps)

Roland trying to keep it up "Marry" (her heart skips a beat)

She was holding her breath for like hours, waiting...

The world seems to stop and time freezes over.

Then she hears him behind her. "Looking for 'me?'"

She turned around and everything started to move. She felt everything crashing down on her; she can feel all the nerves in her body, the buzz in her head, and the erratic beat of her heart. She couldn't stop the tears forming in her eyes and she couldn't contain the sob that left her lips.

She finally took everything in. him. His blue eyes, looking at her with love she never thought she deserved, his face, his smile, his presence, his t-shirt with a 'me' printed on it (she let out a laugh at that), his love for her... his irrevocable, irretrievable, unconditional love.

And how she equally, dearly, deeply reciprocates that love for him.

"Emma Swan," he took a deep breath and walk closer to her. "I have been in love with you ever since the moment I first saw you—and not a day has gone by that I did not think of you. You've enchanted me, love. Three years ago, I've met the most amazing woman, an incredible mother, the one I have been longing for to love and to cherish. Every day with you, love, were the best days of my entire existence, every single moment with you and the kids. Every day...I keep on falling in love with you all over again." His voice broke into a whisper and she could see the redness of his eyes even if her own tears blurring her vision. He wiped away the tears that fell down and framed her face with his warm hands. "And I will keep on loving you for every breath until my last." He took a step back and kneeled in front of her. "Emma, my love, will you—"

"Yes." She let out a sob after. "God, yes, Killian, yes!" she pulled him over his lapels and kissed him deeply in front of the cheering crowd.

Emma will never admit she dreamt of fairytales, adventures and Prince Charming of her own to sweep her off of her feet. But she got all of them in the form of Killian Jones and she couldn't wished for more.

"You didn't even let me finish."

"Shut up, put that ring on my finger and just freaking kiss me, Jones."

"Aye, aye, Mrs. Jones."

And that he did. Sweeping her off her feet in the process.
