Emma was in the 9th month of her pregnancy. She was 37 weeks pregnant She is feeling huge, her body is more swollen like her hands and her feet. She is more exhausted. Emma was in bed, "Killian?"
"Yes, love?"
"Can you please massage my feet for me?"
"Sure love." He sits by her feet and massages them. "How are you feeling?"
"Really huge and really really tired."
"Your mom called and asked me if you want to get your nails done with her? She asked me to drive you. She figured you need a girl's day out to relax."
"As long you can come with me. I can barely walk."
"Sure, love anything for you."
"Can you put my wedding ring in my jewelry box for me? I cannot wear it now because my finger are so swollen."
"Sure, love. Did I massage your feet enough?"
"Yes. You did." They kiss. Killian puts her wedding ring in her jewelry box. "Oh, Killian. After the nail salon with my mom. We need to go to the baby store to get a car seat for her. We cannot bring her home without a car seat."
"Aye, we do need one." He puts his hands on her big baby bump.
"There are many brands but I think the Graco is the best one for our little girl."
"Do you want me to buy while you are getting your nails done with your mom?"
"Sure. It saves me less walking to do. What time do we need to meet my mom at the nail salon?"
"11:30."
"Okay. I am going to get dressed. Can you help me with my shoes? I cannot see my feet anymore or reach them."
"Aye, your baby bump has gotten a lot bigger."
"Yes, she is strong and healthy growing inside of me and really heavy."
"See, I told you that our little Hope is strong like her Mommy."
Emma smiles. "She is part you and parts me. She is a little fighter."
"Aye. She is."
"Thank you for working on the baby play mat, the baby monitors and the baby moving chair."
"Your welcome. Most of the babe's mechanical items are downstairs in the living room. Henry helped me set up the walkie-talkies. I had no idea how to work them. "
"That is okay, we can both learn how to use them once she comes."
Emma slowly got ready for the day. She admired her baby bump in front of her mirror. "Baby Hope you have gotten so much bigger . You are almost running out of room in there. Do not worry little girl, you will be here soon before you know." She sees two tiny footprints on the top of her baby bump. "Baby Hope, I can see your two small feet and they are adorable. She smiled and cried. "Killian!"
Killian ran upstairs. "What is it, Emma? Are you in labor?"
"No, come here and look."
Killian smiles."Swan, is that her feet?"
"Yes, they sure are." Killian got Emma's phone and took a picture of the baby's feet. He takes another photo of Emma's reaction and holding her bare big baby bump.
"Mommy loves you, Hope."
Killian kisses the baby bump where the tiny feet are. "They are so small, Swan."
"I know. I cannot wait to meet her."
"Me too, Emma."
Emma got ready wearing maternity leggings and a loose top. Killian helped her with putting on her shoes. "Thank you. I know my feet are swollen, that must have been hard trying to fit my feet in my shoes, even though I cannot see my feet."
"It is no problem, Swan." He helps her up and they walk together to the yellow bug car. When Killian was driving, Emma reminded him, "I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. Since I am nine months now, I have weekly check-ups."
"What time is your appointment?"
"10:00 am."
Killian parked the car in front of the "Three Bears Nail Salon." He helped Emma out of the car and walked her in. Snow White was already there waiting for Emma. "Hi, sweetie."
"Hi, Mom."
"Are you ready for our girls day?"
"Yes. I am."
"Killian, I can help Emma from here."
"Are you sure love?"
"Yes, do not worry Killian. She is with her mom."
"Aye, swan call me when you two are done. I am going to buy the lass's car seat."
"I will call. Thank you for driving me."
"Anytime love." They kiss. He leaves to the baby store.
Snow walks with Emma, "wow, you weren't kidding when you said Killian is very protective."
"Oh yes, he is. That what I love about him. He cares for me and our little girl."
"He sure is. Come on. Let's get our nails done." Emma and Snow White both got a manicure and pedicure.
"Thank you Mom, for this. I really needed some time to relax. It took my mind off of how huge I am feeling."
"Just remember she is almost here."
"I know."
"I can drop you off at your house."
"Sure. I will call Killian and tell him that you're driving home me home. Emma calls Killian. "Hi, honey."
"Hi, Emma. How is the girls' day?"
"It is going really good. My mom is dropping me over at our house."
"Okay, Emma. I am at the baby store buying the car seat."
"I will see you at home."
Snow White helped Emma out of her car and walked with her to the house. "Wow, Emma your house prepared for your baby."
Emma sits down on her living room couch. "Oh, yes. I already cleaned all of the clothes and sheets and Killian & Henry fixed all of the furniture and technology that is needed. My hospital bag is in the closet when it is time. Yep, about 2-3 more weeks until we have our little girl in the house. She rubs her big baby belly. "I cannot wait to have her in my arms."
"Emma, it will feel amazing, all of the pain of the labor will go away once she arrives."
"Yes, I know. I am looking forward holding her in my arms for the first time... I did not hold Henry. If I held him, I would have kept him. It was very painful...all of it."
"Sweetie, you are in a better situation. You have your son that is so supportive and loves you and your baby girl already."
"I know. I am lucky to have Henry in my life and cannot wait to share my daughter with him. I regret every day of giving him up. I know I made the right decision for him. I love him."
"Henry is an amazing kid, and he takes after you so much even though you did not raise him. He is still yours. He is staying with you now to help you as much as he can."
"I know. I know he loves me and his little sister. I cannot wait for her to come and raise her from the start."
"I know the feeling sweetie. You know before your Dad put you in the wardrobe, I held you?"
"You did?"
"Yes, I did. I was the one decided to let you go in the wardrobe. It was the hardest decision I ever have to make, I still regret it."
"Aww, mom. You know that if I stayed we will be all stuck in the dark curse and I would not be the savior"
"Yes, I know that. I am just happy to be in your life." She touches Emma's baby belly. "And to be in your daughter's life too."
"I am happy you and our whole family are together. I know I am not alone this time."
"We will never leave you, Emma."
Killian comes home. "Emma?"
"In the living room. Speaking of never being alone." They both laughed.
"Hi, Snow. Hi Emma. How are my two loves doing." He kisses her on the lips.
"We are doing good. While I was getting my pedicure, I swear our little girl was doing gymnastics inside of me."
"Oh, really Swan."
"Yes, I know she is getting less space in here." She points to her baby belly.
"She is getting so big, she is coming soon."
"Yes, she is."
"I will make our dinner. Snow how was the girls' day?"
"It was fun. Did you get car seat?"
"Yes, I did. I also got someone to put it in the car for us. I went grocery shopping on the way home. I got your favorite blackberries."
"Aww. Thank you."
Killian goes to the kitchen to prepare to cook for dinner. "Wow, Emma you really have a great and supportive husband."
"I know. He is the best. Our little girl loves him and her big brother already. Did I ever respond to you when I in the womb?
"What do you mean?"
"Well, this little girl knows when I am sad. Like a few months ago, I was thinking of how grateful to have maternity clothes this time around. I was thinking of wearing that horrible prison uniform when I was pregnant with Henry." Emma smiled and rubbed her baby bump. "This little girl here kicked to remind me that I was happily married and Henry is a very supportive son and she was going to love me." She continues to rub her baby belly feeling Hope move around.
"Emma...when I was pregnant with you. We were all so stressed about the Evil Queen's curse. There was one time when I got so stressed and cried in my room alone. You kicked me, to remind me that everything is going to alright in the end."
"Aww, like mother like daughter. I know now where my baby girl gets it from."
Killian comes into the living bringing in two mugs of hot chocolate with cinnamon, whip cream, and marshmallows. "I figured that you two need something good to drink."
"Aww, honey you are so thoughtful. Thank you." She kisses him on the cheek.
"Thank you, Killian. You know for our love of hot chocolate."
"You are both welcome."
"He has come from so far since we met him in the Enchanted Forest."
"I know. I changed him for the better."
Emma hands her phone to her Mom, "Check out my two recent picture." "Emma....is that your baby girl's feet?" "Yes, they are. They are so tiny. We both did not expect to see her feet this morning. We were both surprised." "Emma this is really amazing to see." After they talked about pregnancies and family Snow White had to go back home to Charming and Leo. "Call me if you need anything, Emma."
"I will. I will definitely call you when I am in labor. I want you there with Killian and me in the delivery room. I do not want to be alone."
"Emma, of course, I will be there supporting you the whole way. You are not alone now, remember that. You have me, your Dad, your adoring husband, and your son. Do not forget that." Snow White hugs Emma.
"I won't. I promised Henry that he will be the one to meet her first."
"Of course, he has to. Henry is her big brother."
Emma giggles. "What is it, honey?"
"Every time Henry name is mentioned, my little girl kicks."
"Aw, really?"
"Yes, she loves her big brother already. He does too."
"They will get along great."
"I know they will."
"I will call you if I need anything, thank you for today."
"You're welcome, sweetie. We need to do this more often. The next time is when you have your baby girl with us."
"Yay, I cannot wait." Snow White leaves Emma's house.
Killian enters the living room and sits next to Emma. "Did you have a great girls' day with your Mom?"
"Yes, I did. It was fun just talking about anything with her. I mentioned some information that she did not know about and we had a good time."
"I am happy you had some mother and daughter bonding."
"Yes, the first time we had bonding is when we got sucked into the Enchanted Forest right after the first curse."
"It happened right after the first curse?"
"Yup. Then we met you in the Enchanted Forest. I did not expect you to change my life, breaking my walls down and having this little girl."
"Aye, it is true love."
"Yes, it is." They kiss.
