Love is the light scaring Darkness away | CAPTAINSWAN FANFIC

Lego Castle | Chapter 30

EMMA'S POV

Days had passed.
A month had passed.

Some people decided to stay in town, and wait for the savior who was been locked up in the hospital to go with them.
Some decided to go to the Enchanted Forest with Regina.
Henry would go and come.
Everyday he would spend some time with me in this room.
My parents, as promised, stayed.

The pain? Oh the pain didn't go.
It stayed here. And it only worsened.

Killian got better.
After a month of physiotherapy he could walk again.
His shoulder was still sore but he was out of the hospital.

But it was like he never left.
He stayed every second with me.

Luckily with time I learned how to hide the pain. Not the physical one. The worst. The one that comes from the inside.

That emotional pain that that body is no longer inside me.
That happiness that is forever gone.

"I brought you grilled cheese. You know it's getting hard to get food without Granny's."

"My hero." I forced one of those fake smiles.

"Sorry for taking so long. I was helping Henry with his homework."

"You helped him with his homework?" I smirked.

"It was about the sea." After he put down the bag on the nightstand next to the bed he came to me and pecked my lips.

"I wanna go outside again." I said with a grin.

"Emma, I know it's hard to stay here all day, believe me I know. But you know what happened last time we went for a walk. You should wait."

My smile completely faded.

Last time, it was really painful.
My leg didn't handle it and I fell on the floor.
Killian was there to help but he couldn't do anything.

He couldn't carry me. I wouldn't let him.
A small move would kill me inside.

I couldn't move my leg and the pain was getting worse.
He had to leave me alone to call a nurse in the hospital and they brought me back in a wheelchair.

"I'll go in the chair." I sighed. "I just wanna go outside. Please."

"I'll bring the chair." he said and left.

I sat up, carefully bringing my legs to the side of the bed.
I walked around the room.

That I could do. Even without the scratches.

I just couldn't force too much.

I walked to the window.
I saw the Main Street.

I saw my parents. And my brother.
They were trying to get Neal to take their first steps.

My dad was grabbing his hands and walking with him between his legs.

Suddenly he almost fell but he grabbed him just in time.
I released a breath of relief that I didn't know I was holding.

He pulled him into his arms and they all laughed.

I realized I had tear falling on my cheek and I quickly wiped it away with my gray coat's sleeve.

"Well after fighting with the nurse... she finally gave me the damn chair." Killian came with the chair.

I faked a smile and sat on the chair with his help.

"Something wrong?" he asked and I quickly shaked my head.

He sighed. He understood everything.
He went to the window and saw what I was watching.

He looked back at me and I looked down to not face him.

"Let's go..." I said quietly and drove myself the chair to the hospital hall leaving him in the room.

KILLIAN'S POV

I don't know how to comfort her.

After she left, I only found her in the garden of that bloody hospital.

It was where we were last time we came for a walk.
She had told me her parents used to meet here before the curse was broken, after Dave had woken form the coma.

I found her wheelchair. She was looking to the river that passed nearby.

I walked closer to her and I stayed next to her without saying a word.

"I know we weren't even expecting it." she spoke breaking the silence and I looked at her in confusion. "I know we weren't planning on having it. I know I was actually scared when I found out I was pregnant. But..."

She stopped herself to not cry.
I knew how hard it was for her to say it out loud.

She swallowed hard and continued. "Now that... that I knew it would be okay, that I knew it would make us happy, make us together... I realized I really want it."

She wants another try.

I grabbed her arms and pulled her up into my arms.
I held her head, pulling it against my shoulder.
She sobbed. She let go her feelings that she had been holding in for a month.

I pulled away, cupping her cheek in my good hand.
My chin trembling to stop the tears.

I nodded confirming her how much I wanted it too.
She let go a sigh of relief and hugged me again.
I could feel her wild smile against my neck.
Her warm hands on my scruff. Her soft fingers caressing my skin.

"We're gonna be happy, okay? Together." I said into her hair and she nodded.

EMMA'S POV

"Please take me home with you!"
Kids always knew how to conquer people's hearts.
They need to show how much they wanted them. How much they hated this place.
Pitty.

No one would ever choose that child in the corner.
The one with wild red curls. Too messy.
That lonely kid with problems.

She would have seen lots of people going home. Happy. With a teddy bear that the couple would give them just to like them.

"We are your parents now." They would say until we didn't screw it up because then we would be the adopted child.

She brought a box full of legos just for herself.
She held a small lego tree and stared at it.

And then, she built her dream house. Her home.
More like a castle.

She wondered if she would ever be loved. Chosen.

My eyes wide opened.
I saw her again.
My lost daughter.

|okay I have to admit. The lego house was rlly a heartbreaking idea omg.

Btw JEN AND COLIN ON A HORSE I literally screamed last night at 5am|
