207 4 4
                                    

Since Killian and Emma found out about the pregnancy, Killian would go to work and bringing Emma's paperwork home. They were being extra cautious because of Snow White and doesn't want the whole town to know yet. Two weeks later, Emma was sleeping with Killian snuggling in his arms with Hope sleeping next to them. She woke up nauseous and headed to their bathroom to vomit. Killian wakes up hearing Emma in their bathroom knowing she began morning sickness. He quickly went downstairs to make a cool rag and filled her glass of ice ginger ale. Hope wakes up hearing her Mommy sick and climbs out of the bed and goes to her Mommy in the bathroom. She hugs her Mommy. "Mommy."
"Mommy is okay. The baby is making Mommy sick." She pukes again.
"Mommy." She hugs her Mommy and not letting her go. "Tay you."
Emma knew Hope wanted to hug her when she was not vomiting. "You can stay with me, Hope. You can keep me company." Hope kisses her Mommy on the cheek making her smile.
Killian comes back up seeing Hope hugging her Mommy who was sitting on the tile floor. "Hope." He tries to take her from Emma. "Mommy is not feeling well, little love."
Hope began crying."No, tay Mommy. Tay Mommy."
"Mommy is sick..."
"Tay Mommy, Dada."
"Killian, she can stay." She rubs her daughter's back. "Hope, do not cry. You are staying with me." Hope stops crying. "You are keeping me company, little duckling." She takes the ginger from her husband and sips it. She looks at her husband."Thank you. I needed it."
"You are welcome. There's more if you need it. I hate seeing you like this."
Emma sighs. "It won't be too long this time, hopefully."
"Mommy." Hope hugs her Mommy.
"I am okay, sweetie."
"Not, okay."
Emma smiles knowing her daughter knows her so well. She kisses Hope on the head. "The baby in my tummy is making me sick. Other than that I am okay." She looks up at her husband knowing what day it was January 26. "I am sorry, Killian."
"Sorry for what love?"
"It's your birthday. I am starting morning sickness today of all days...I am sorry. I ruined your birthday plans." She began tearing up feeling awful because it is his birthday and their plans are changed and she was feeling sick.
"Don't cwy, Mommy." Hope hugs her Mommy.
Killian hugs his wife. "Emma, I am not mad at you. You did not ruin my birthday."
"Yes, I did. We had plans for your birthday. Now, I have morning sickness."
"Emma." He places his hand on her abdominal, "Knowing that you are carrying another healthy baby of ours that we created, our littlest bean is the best gift I can ever receive by my beautiful wife. Becoming a daddy again is the best gift I can ever get for my birthday, Emma." He kisses her abdominal. "Little bean, this is your Daddy. I love you so much. I am with your Mommy and your big sister Hope. We love you so much." Emma smiles.
"Baby."
"Yes, daddy is talking to the baby." Hope puts her hand on her Mommy's abdominal. "You can talk to the baby."
"Hi, baby. Luv you."
"Very good, Hope. Your baby brother or sister will know your voice, Daddy's and Henry's voices besides mine."
Hope hugs her Mommy. "Luv you,Mommy."
"I love you, Hope." She kisses Hope on the head. "I love you, daddy, Henry and the baby." She sips her ginger ale. Killian wrapped his arm around his swan."I still feel pretty bad, I really wanted to sail..." Emma goes back puking into the toilet.
"Mommy." Hope began crying.
Killian holds Hope knowing her was no way they were sailing today not how bad Emma's morning sickness was. "There there, Hope. Mommy is okay. We just need to make Mommy comfortable and make sure she gets her naps."
"Tay Mommy."
"You can stay with Mommy, little love. You are helping me keep Mommy company when she's not feeling well."
"No Mommy sick."
"Mommy will feel better soon,little love."
Emma finished puking for the moment and sat against the cool tub out of breath. Hope goes to her Mommy and hugs. Emma closes her eyes. "You give me the best hugs, baby girl when I need them." Killian puts the cool rag on top of Emma's head. "Thank you."
"You are welcome."
Henry wakes up hearing his Mom having morning sickness. He goes downstairs to make her plain toast and brought it up to his parent's bathroom, finding the rest of his family there. "Mom, I have something for you to eat."
"Thanks, kid." Emma eats some of her toast.
"Little sis, are you keeping Mommy company?"
"Yes. Tay Mommy." Hope hugs her Mommy.
"Mommy will feel better soon, Hope." Emma goes back to puking, with Hope at her side.
"Hope..."
"Lad, Hope wants to be with your Mom."
"Dad, can I cook breakfast for the rest of us?"
"Yes, lad. Just open the windows."
"I remember how we cooked the last time when Mom was pregnant with Hope."
"Thanks, lad." Henry goes downstairs to the kitchen.
Emma felt weak and her legs were wobbly."Killian, help me up, please. I want to lie down."
"Aye, love." He saw the state she was in helped her up and scooped her into his arms and brought her back to their bed. "Here you go." He tucks her in as Hope climbs onto her parents' bed.
"Thank you."
"You are welcome,Emma. You need to rest. You are growing our little bean."
"Our little bean is the cause of my morning sickness but it is a sign the baby is healthy."
"Baby." Hope sits next to her Mommy. "Sick."
"The baby is moving around my belly which is why I am sick. I am not going to be feeling well for a while." She hugs her daughter. "I have Daddy, Henry, and you to help me feel better." She kisses her on the head. "When I stop being sick, the baby in my belly will be growing inside of me. You will feel the baby kick inside of me. When you were growing inside of me, you were kicking so much."
"Really?"
Emma smiles."Yes!" She kisses Hope on the head. "When the baby comes, you are not going to be replaced. I love all of my ducklings."
"Little pirate, are you hungry for breakfast?"
"Yes."Killian scooped Hope into his arms. "I know Henry is making breakfast."
"Mommy."
"Mommy needs her nap, little love. We are going to be downstairs if she needs us."
"Hope, we can have Mommy and Hope time later after my nap." She kisses Hope on the head.
"Swan, we will be downstairs, if you need us. You two need some rest."
"Thank you." She kisses him on the cheek. Emma goes back into the covers as Killian brings Hope downstairs to the kitchen. "Henwy!"
"Hi, Hope." Killian sees the breakfast set up, pancakes, mixed berries, orange juice, cinnamon hot cocoa, and presents. "Happy birthday Dad!"
"Happy Dada!" Hope hugs her Daddy. Henry joined their hug.
Killian smiles. "Thank you, Henry and Hope."
"We have presents for you."
"Gifts!" Killian sits at the table with Hope on his lap. Henry gives Hope her gift to their Daddy. "Dada!"
"Is this for me?"
"Yes!"
Killian opens his gift which was a painted anchor painted in different shades of blue with his name in cursive Killian Jones. Killian smiles. "I love my new anchor Hope. I am going to hang it in our captain quarters." He hugs his daughter.
"Luv you Dada."
"I love you, Hope. I love my gift you made me."
"Mommy help."
"Ah, Mommy helped you create my gift."
"Yes, art."
"I love my art from you Hope." He kisses her on the head.
"Dad, my gift is next." Henry gives his gift to their Dad to open.
"Henwy." Henry holds Hope. She hugs her brother.
Killian opens his gift from his son which was a new soft blanket with patterns of hooks, anchors, and ships. "A new blanket that I can use when we are sailing. Thank you, Henry."
"Your welcome, Dad. I figured you and Mom need a new blanket to share when you two are out on the Jolly Roger. Do you think we can go to our second home today?"
"Depends how your Mom is feeling, lad."
"I remember the last time, it was all day. Sailing did help."
"You are right, son."
"Henwy!"
"Hope, are you hungry, little sis?"
"Yes!"
"I made pancakes!"
"Yay!" Henry puts Hope in her booster seat. "Gift!"
"You are right, Hope. We have one more gift for Dad." He kisses Hope on the head and gives his Dad their gift. "This is from Hope and me."
Killian opens his gift which was a painting of himself with a sword, Pirates are heroes. Killian smiles remembering when Charming told him in Neverland that he will always be a pirate but now he is one as a hero, pirate, and a daddy to almost three children. "Henry, Hope I love it! I am going to hang it by my desk at the sheriff's station." He hugs Henry and Hope.
"Pancakes."
"Do you want more pancakes, little sis?"
"Yes! Berries."
"More strawberries and blueberries on top?"
"Yes!"
"Henry, I got it. You can eat." Henry eats his breakfast as Killian gives Hope more berries onto her plate. "Berries are yummy, Hope?"
"Yes!"
"My healthy little eater." He kisses Hope on the head. Killian enjoys his birthday breakfast.
He hears Emma going downstairs. "Killian?"
"Dad, I will clean up. Hopey, you can help me clean up."
"Clean up!"
Killian goes to the steps seeing Emma looking green and gripping the staircase rail."Emma." He holds onto his wife. "Hey, I got you." He places his hand on her face.
Emma was seeing Killian in double vision. "I am...dizzy...I want to be with you...especially on your birthday..."
Killian scooped Emma into his arms, knowing she was in no condition to be walking around alone especially on the steps."You need to rest,love. "
"Killian...I want to be with you and our kids..."
"Emma, you are not feeling well. My swan needs to rest because our little bean is growing inside of you." He carried her back to their bedroom.
"Killian...I am going..." He took her to the bathroom and held her hair and rubbed her back as she continued to puke. Emma moaned as she vomited but felt Killian at her side not leaving her. Henry hears his Mom not feeling well and noticing Hope was getting upset. "Hope, do you want to go play in the backyard?"
"Yes!"
Henry gets his and Hope's coats and puts Hope's coat, socks and shoes on her. Hope goes to the backyard ahead of Henry who was putting his coat on. "Hope! Wait up!" He rushes out to the backyard. Hope takes her brother's hand and leads him to the side. "Slide!"
"We can go down the slide!" Henry makes sure Hope goes the ladder safely as Hope was going up and down the slide.
"Whee!" Henry smiles love seeing his sister happy.
After Emma puking, Killian helped his swan cool off with a cool rag and guided her back to their bed. "Stay."
"I am staying here with you, Emma." Killian joins his swan on their bed and wraps his arms around his wife who falls back to sleep. I am staying right here with you, Emma."
A few hours later, Emma wakes up, hungry. "Now, I am getting my appetite back." She takes a sip of water.
Killian gives Emma a box of saltines unopened. "Try these,love. Maybe these can ease your stomach."
"Thank you. I am hoping I can keep these down. Our baby is causing my stomach to be sick." She takes one and eats it. "I love our baby though."
"I love our baby too, love." He leans against Emma's abdominal. "Little love, this is your Dada. Dada's birthday today. Being a daddy again on my birthday is the best gift ever that your mommy ever gave to me."
Emma smiles love seeing her husband talking to their baby. "Technically, you and I created this little duckling."
"Aye with our love."
"Yes, I love making babies with you."
"I love you, Emma."
"I love you, Killian." They kiss.
She places her hand on her abdominal. "Baby Swan-Jones,Mommy loves you so much even though you are making me sick." Killian smiles. Emma lay down on her side of the bed.
Killian laid next to his wife cuddling her and rubbing her shoulders until he heard her low snore. "Rest up, love. You need it, you are growing our little pirate." He kisses her on the head. "I love you so much." He watched her sleep enjoying his snuggles with his wife and baby to be.
Henry takes Hope inside when she began crying knowing she needed her nap. "Hope it is your naptime."
"No, nap. No nap..." Henry carried Hope upstairs.
Killian sees Henry and Hope. "Little love, it is time for your nap?"
"No nap." He takes Hope from his son. "Want Mommy."
"Mommy is right here." Killian takes Hope to his and Emma's room.
"Mommy...want Mommy."
Emma wakes up hearing Hope wanting her. "Hope." Killian gives their daughter to his swan. Emma faces her daughter. "Why are you crying, little duckling?"
"Want Mommy."
"You are with me, Hope. Everything is okay. We can have nap time together."
"Mommy Hope."
Emma smiles. "Yes, Mommy and Hope time. Our girl time." Hope hugs her Mommy.
Henry joins them on the bed. "Mom, Hope will have a good nap because Hope and I play on the slide and on the swings in the backyard. We had a lot of fun."
Emma smiles at her son. "Did she tire you out?"
"Not tired but out of breath. We went on the swings, slide and I chased after her a lot." She hugs her son. "Mom, how are you feeling?"
"Still dizzy but feeling a little better than this morning."
"Is that a good thing?"
"Yes." Henry hugs his Mom. "I am okay, kid."
"I know you're feeling awful. I am hoping it is not that bad as last time."
"Me too."
"Mommy."
"Yes, sweetie?"
"Pway."
"Little sis, it is nap time."
"No Henwy. No nap."
"Okay, no nap means no story."
"Book! Book, Henwy!!"
"Only if you nap."
"Okay!" Emma smiles seeing her son and daughter's close sibling relationship. Henry gets his book.
"Swan, I brought you up more cold ginger ale and saltines."
"Thank you, saltines are the only food that I can keep down." Henry returns to the room. "Mommy, Henwy book!"
"Yes, sweetie. Henry brought his book to read to us stories." Henry sits down on the bed next to his Mom and sister and reads Hope stories. "Once upon a time...."Hope grabs the book. Henry thinks, "She is such a little pirate."
"Hold book."
Henry thinks she is bossy, a lot like their Mom, he was wondering who the baby will take after more of their Mom or Dad. "How about you hold the book while I read to you? Deal?"
"Deal! Tay Mommy."
"You are staying with me, Hope."
"Yes, Hope, Mommy is joining our storytime." Henry continued reading knowing that he will be reading to another sibling soon with Hope a mix of their Mom and Dad. Emma smiles knowing her two children are there for her. When Hope fell asleep, Emma was eating saltines. "Mom, Hope is such a little pirate."
"Oh, yes she is. Are you ready to have another little pirate to read too?"
"Yes. I know the baby will be a perfect mix of you and Dad. I love being a big brother."
"You are an amazing big brother, kid."
Killian hears the doorbell. He goes downstairs to answer, it was Charming. "Happy birthday, Killian."
"Thank you, Charming."
"How is Emma? It is unlike her to be not at the sheriff's station."
"She is under the weather,that is all."
"Are you sure? She has been avoiding me at the sheriff's station when she has been there."
"Because you betrayed her trust when you did not tell her that your wife is out of the psych ward!"
"Can I apologize to Emma? I feel really bad."
"Not now when she is feeling better. She is resting."
Emma comes down hearing her Dad. "Hi, Dad."
"Emma." Charming hugs his daughter. "I have been worried about you. Are you okay? You look so pale."
Emma was still mad at her Dad. "The last time I spoke to you, Mary-Margaret was here with you. You did not tell me that she was out of the psych ward! I have been busy making sure she does not hurt my family." Emma could not take it anymore and more nauseous.
"Emma." Killian holds his wife's arm. "Swan? Let's get you upstairs."
"Emma..."
"I will be right back." Killian helps her upstairs and tucked his swan into their bed. Hope who was fast asleep in her bed,Henry took Hope to her room knowing their Mom needs space. He gives her the glass of ginger ale. "Thank you."
"You are welcome, love. I will not tell your Dad..."
"Thank you." She holds his hook. "After he leaves, you are joining me in here."
"Aye,swan." They kiss. He returns downstairs. "Charming, she has a stomach bug."
Charming does not seem convinced with Killian's answer. "Are you sure it is just a stomach bug?"
"Yes, she only has a stomach bug. I am taking care of her."
Charming smiles. "You are a good man, Killian. You are taking good care of my daughter."
"Aye, I am doing my job."
"That is what I like seeing. Call me if you need anything."
"Thank you, Charming." Charming leaves. As the door closed, he hears Emma crying. He rushes up to their room seeing Emma crying. "Emma." He hugs his wife. "I feel so bad...I am ruining your birthday. I am an awful wife...." Emma cried more. Killian knew his wife was hormonal.
"Emma..." He scooped his wife into his arms. "I am not mad. My beautiful wife is our child. With you carrying our baby which is the best gift ever because I get to be a daddy again to a little one. I love being a Daddy." He hugs his wife. "I love being at home with my family on my birthday and taking care of my beautiful swan. Next week, we get to see the baby in your 8-week sonogram of our baby is a bonus birthday present."
Emma has the best husband who always knows how to cheer her up. "You are the best you know that?"
"Aye, I am. I love you so much."
"I love you so much." They kiss.
"I have something for you." Emma puts a pile of presents onto their bed. "Happy birthday."
Killian smiles seeing all of his presents from his beautiful wife. "Emma.. these are all for me?"
"Yes, it is my husband's birthday. I love spoiling my sexy pirate husband."
"Thank you."
"Open your gifts!"
"My bossy swan." Emma chuckles. Killian opens his gifts, he got sweaters for winter, a new rum flask,a navy blue and gray knitted stripe scarf to keep him warm while sailing. He opened the biggest box which was a personalized lamp, designed with ship and ocean. "Emma, is this for our second home?"
"Yes, we can also use it here. I know that you have nightmares." Killian remembers when he was a young lad when his father used a lamp to help him stop the nightmares right before he left. "If you do not like it, I can return it."
"Emma, this is from you. I love it."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"You do not sound happy." Emma began crying.
Killian hugs his wife. "Emma...I love it."
"Are you sure?"
"I love how the lamp is a nautilus theme."
"Really?"
"Yes, Emma. I love this gift."
Emma smiles. "I can plug it in." She plugs it in and closes the curtains. When the lamp was turned on, there was a shadow of the ship and ocean.
"Emma!" He hugs his wife. "I love it."
"I had a feeling you love it." Killian kisses Emma and lifted his swan into his arms. They make out, which Emma was horny, Killian was enjoying this part of the pregnancy symptom.
Hope enters her parent's bedroom. "Eww! Henwy!"
Henry goes to Hope and sees what his sister sees. "Yes, Eww. Hope." Henry holds his sister smiles knowing she was learning from him."Let's go play."
"Art!" Henry takes Hope to his room and works on an art project.
Killian and Emma both smile at each other when they stopped kissing. "How are you feeling?"
"Less nauseous for the moment."
"I have a feeling where you can be less nauseous. Do you trust me?"
"Yes."
A few moments later, Killian drove his family in the yellow bug to the docks. "You brought us here?"
"Aye, I have a feeling the littlest pirate will love its second home just like it's Daddy." He leans to his swan's abdominal. "This is your daddy, littlest pirate. I brought you, your Mommy, big brother and sister to the docks. I want you to get use to our second home. You are a little pirate after all." He kisses Emma's abdominal making Emma smile.
"Olly Wawa! Mommy, Dada, Olly Wawa!!"
"Yes, Hope. We are going on our second home, baby girl." Henry helps his sister out of her car seat and walks her on deck as Killian walks with his wife and let her rest in the captain quarters. "Are you comfy?"
"Yes. I think our baby loves the Jolly Roger." Emma looks down at her abdominal. "Baby, do you like our second home? It is your daddy's ship. Your Daddy will tell you all about our second home."
"Of course, I will tell you everything, little bean." They both placed their hands on her abdominal. "Little bean, you have so many stories told of this ship has been too. This is your family's second home. You are going to have so many family memories on this ship. We sail the Jolly Roger a lot, littlest love." Emma smile.
Hope and Henry enter the captain's quarters. "Mommy!" Killian helps Hope onto the bed. She points to her Mommy's belly."Baby."
Emma smiles and placed Hope's hands onto her abdominal. "Yes, your baby brother or sister is growing inside of me. Just like you and Henry did."
"Henwy, me?"
"Yes." She hugs her daughter. "You two grew inside of my belly. Now the new baby is in my belly. You are going to show the baby how to be a pirate, how to play, and how to do knots."
"Yay!"
Henry sits on the bed. "I will teach the baby, art, how to play and how to read."
"Henwy!"
"It is both of our sibling, Hope."
"My baby."
"Hope, the baby is going to be our sibling."
Emma chuckles seeing Henry and Hope both want to teach the news family member everything. "You both can teach the baby." Hope and Henry hug their Mom. "You two love hugging me."
"Luv you."
"We love you, Mom." Emma changes Hope's diaper. "Dad, I ordered out usuals from granny's. Ruby is delivering it here."
"Thanks, lad. I have something for your Mom already."
"Little pirate. Do you want to have a knot lesson?"
"Yes!" Killian carried Hope out of the room.
Henry stays with his Mom. "Mom, are you okay? Do you need anything?"
"I am okay."
"I can stay here with you." Emma hugs her son. "I really am happy that you are having another baby, Mom. I am excited to be a big brother again."
"When I am not having morning sickness anymore, I do need my favorite stakeout partner."
"Awesome! I have a question?"
"Yes?"
"Aunt Allison knows about the baby. When can I tell Ava?"
Emma smiles. "You have my permission to tell her."
"Yes!" They continue to talk.
Killian was teaching Hope a new knot with her colorful ropes on deck. Allison arrives. "Happy birthday, Killian!"
"Thank you, Allison."
"I came by to drop off your gift. Henry told me that you were here and Emma's morning sickness."
"Aye, she just started today. I have been taking care of her all day."
"Auntie, wope!"
Allison kneels to Hope. "Is your Daddy teaching you how to tie knots?"
"Yes. Wed, blue wopes."
"They are so pretty."
"Dada best wope!" Hope hugs her Daddy.
"I have the best little pirate student." He kisses Hope on the head. "I am worried about Emma. Her morning sickness was really bad with Hope."
"The morning sickness will pass. This is the roughest part of the pregnancy. The second trimester is much easier."
"Aye, around the time she is in her second trimester, she will be less sick around Hope's birthday."
Allison smiles. "That is right. If you need me to come over to help with Emma's morning sickness call me."
"Thank you. I have been doing both of our shifts at the sheriff's station. I am always nervous when I am not at home with her."
"I can help."
"So far only you and possibly Ava knows."
"Mommy."
"Mommy is in our captain quarters."
"Mommy." Hope sees her Mommy and runs to her.
Emma scooped Hope into her arms. "Hopey." She kisses her daughter on the head. "Hi, Allison."
"Emma!" She hugs her best friend. "How are you?"
"Less morning sickness now than most of the day."
"I heard from Killian about it. I also dropped by to give his birthday gift." Hope hugs her Mommy.
"Hope, Henry, and Killian are all being overprotective of me and the baby."
"As they should be."
Emma and Allison sat on deck. "When we have girl talk..."
"We can have girl talk now."
"Do you have any advice of being a mother of a toddler and a newborn?"
"My tip is to make sure Hope be your helper during your pregnancy and when the baby arrives too. The more she is involved, the better big sister she will be to your newest baby."
"Help, Mommy."
"You are my helper. You can help me and Daddy when the baby comes."
"Help baby."
"Yes! You are going to be a great big sister." She kisses Hope on the head as she hugs her. "Most of the day, Hope was hugging me in between my morning sickness, is that normal?"
"Yes, she just wants to make sure you are okay."
"I do not mind the company, she and Killian have been keeping me company in the bathroom. Also, Henry has been helping me as best as he can with Killian. He also been keeping Hope occupied when Killian is with me."
"Emma, if you need anything, I can bring you anything from the store. I can come by and visit."
"Thank you. I have the best best friend." Killian and Henry return on deck with granny's order and Ava.
"Ava!" Hope goes to Ava.
"Hi, Hope! Hi, Emma."
"Hi, Ava."
"Henry told me your news. Congratulations on the new baby!"
"Thank you, Ava. We are all very excited." She looks at her son. "Kid, that was fast." She gave her son a look.
"She has been curious knowing I was keeping something from her."
"Emma, I know it is a secret. I also came by to give Killian his birthday gift."
"I have more presents to open." Emma chuckles.
"Happy birthday Killian!"
"Thank you, Ava." Killian opened his presents, he got a ship, swan connected hook keychain from Ava and a captain theme mug from Allison. "I love my gifts." Henry set up the picnic.
Everyone ate granny's except for Emma who was lying down in the captain quarters. Henry whispers to Ava. Ava went into the captain quarters. "Emma?"
"Hi, Ava."
"Henry told me to get you." She helped Emma up.
"Thanks. I have a feeling what Henry is up too."
"You are welcome. Henry is very excited to be a big brother again. If you need anything, I can bring anything over. I can babysit Hope for you."
"Thank you,Ava." They return to the deck. Emma sits next to her husband who had Hope on his lap.
Killian smiles as he hugs his wife. "Swan, you are back."
"Yes, I couldn't stay away from you too long. My captain." They kiss. Henry returns with a cake in the shape of the Jolly Roger, everyone sung Happy Birthday to Killian with Hope on his lap. He made a wish that Emma can have a healthy pregnancy and blew out the candles as everyone clapped and cheered. "Olly Wawa cake!"
"Yes, little love. It is a Jolly Roger cake." He kisses Hope on the head.
"Killian, what did you wish for?"
"I am not telling you because the wish won't come true." They kiss. "Lad, where did you get the cake?"
"Granny made it. I got Ruby to deliver it to Ava's house."
"I designed the cake and planned for Allison to come."
"I texted Ava to come. She wanted to come earlier but Mom was not feeling well." Emma sees the cake. "Chocolate."
Killian smiles."Are you and the little bean craving for chocolate?
Emma smiles as she puts her hand on her belly. "Maybe."
Henry cut the cake and gave the first slices to his Mom, Dad, and sister. "Killian, how is your birthday cake?"
"Chocolate on the inside and vanilla frosting it is perfect, love."
"Dada cake!"
Killian looks down smiling at Hope who face was covered with cake. "Hope is the cake yummy?"
"Yes!"
"Mommy got Dada a good birthday cake." Emma cleans Hope's face with a baby wipe.
"How is yours, swan?"
"Really delicious. I am just hoping that I can keep it down." She places her hand on her abdominal.
"Aye, you mean the baby?"
"Yes. I was not going to let morning sickness stop me from having your birthday cake." She leans in his shoulder. He kisses her on the head.
Hope goes to Allison. Allison puts Hope on her lap. "Auntie!"
"Hopey." Hope was showing Allison her knots.
"Wope, wed,blue."
"You have two colorful ropes?"
"Knots!"
"You can show me, Hope."
"Yes!" Hope shows her how to make two knots.
Henry and Ava were talking after they and Allison cleaned up the picnic. Emma got nauseous and went to the bathroom to puke. Killian was at her side. Emma sat on the hardwood floor. "That did not take long...the baby does not like cake yet."
Killian hugs his swan and gave her a cold bottle of water. She took sips. "Your morning sickness will lessen soon."
"Hopefully."
"Thank you for planning my birthday on our second home."
"I was planning you something but when you took us on the Jolly Roger, Henry texted Ava and Allison to meet us here. I know we could not sail.."
"This is better, Emma. I had a birthday party at our second home. I know we can sail next year on my birthday."
"Yes, with our newest member of our family."
"Exactly!" They kiss. Killian kisses Emma's abdominal. "Little love, do not worry, you will be sailing with us next year on Daddy's birthday." Emma smiles love seeing Killian so excited to be a Daddy again. Allison had to leave, Killian puts Hope to bed in their captain quarters. Ava got a ride home from Allison. As Hope slept in the captain quarters Henry was drawing a new drawing at his dad's desk.
Killian was snuggling with his swan on deck in the new blanket that Henry got him for his birthday. He was giving his swan a star navigation lesson. "Killian?"
"Yes, Emma?"
"I think our littlest pirate is enjoying Daddy's ship."
"You think so?"
"I know so because I am less nauseous since you brought us here."
"Aye, that because our baby takes after it's Daddy and loves the ocean. He or she is a little pirate just like the rest of our family."
"Your Daddy's special birthday present, baby Swan-Jones. Mommy and Daddy love you so much."
"Aye, we love you little bean. We get to see you on the sonogram next week."
"I cannot wait because we get to hear the heartbeat of our baby. We can bring Henry and Hope, not to this appointment but my next appointment, 12 weeks...just in case."
"You just want to make sure our little bean is healthy before Henry and Hope see our littlest love."
