We Sailed Away

A New Puppy

Emma's POV

Kara is so cute! I can't believe that Killian got me a puppy.

Killian and I spend the rest of the day together cuddled up on the couch watching The Grinch, playing with Kara, drinking hot coco with cinnamon, but the best part is just being with him. I can't believe that he fell for someone like me. It's a fairytale that's become a Reality.

Killian lies down on the couch and pats beside him, signaling for me to come lie down next to him. I walk over to the couch and lie down on top of him.
I snuggle up to him, as he pulls the blanket on top of us.
Kara jumps onto Killian's face. I laugh and grab her.
"Bloody crocodile!" Killian mumbles. I just laugh. I take Kara in my arms, and lay her on top of Killian's chest right beside me.
"Swan, you know that's where you sleep right?" He points to the small husky pup who has already curled up into a small ball.

"Awe, but she's so cute." I pout, and give him my puppy eyes.

"You know I can't resist that face." He puts his hands to cover his eyes.

"Please, let her sleep there." I kiss his cheek.

"Fine." He finally gives in.

"Yay, thank you!" I lay down on his shoulder, and fall asleep.

I wake up to something or someone licking my face. I open my eyes, and see Kara wagging her tale and licking my nose.
"Hey, girl." I sit up and take her in my arms. "What are you doing?" I ask her.
She just tilts her head. "You're adorable." I smile.

"Why thank you, love." Killian says groggly.
I laugh.
"What are you doing?" He sits up.

"Having a conversation with the new member of our small family." I look back at Kara who is looking at Killian.

"Seems like a one sided conversation to me." he chuckles.
I roll my eyes and smile.
"Can I hold her?" He asks holding out his hands.

"Sure." I put Kara in his hands.
She squirms and tries to get out of his hold.
"Looks like she doesn't like you." I take her back and she immediately calms down.

"Crocodile." He days under his breathe. "You wouldn't be here without me. Remember that." He points to her.

"You do realize that you're arguing with a dog, right?" I laugh.

"Yes, I do know that." I put Kara on the floor and get up.
Killian grabs my wrists and pulls me on top of him.

"Would you stop doing that?" I laugh as I land on him.

"No." He smiles.
I lay my head on his chest. I can hear his heart beating, a slow and steady rhythm.
I sigh contently.
He wraps his arms around me, and kisses my head.

"Come on lets go make dinner." I sit up on his stomach,

"But I'm happy here."

"Me too, but I'm hungry." I pull his shirt.

"Fine." He sits up, and slides me into his lap.
Before I can kiss him, Kara jumps between out laps, and starts licking Killian.
"Bloody crocodile!" He yells and pulls his face away from her.
I giggle and take Kara into my arms. She licks my nose.

"He just doesn't appreciate you, like I do." I smile.
He rolls his eyes, and smiles.
I put Kara on the floor, and kiss Killian without any warning.
He acts surprised as first, but then kisses back. He slips his fingers under my shirt. I pull back and say, "nah, ah, ah." I push his hands away and smile.

"Oh, come on, Swan." He laughs.

"No," I giggle.

"You're not fun." He pouts.

"You'll get over it." I place my fingers on his neck.

"But what if I don't?" He smiles idioticly.

"You will." I kiss him once more before getting up and walking to the kitchen.

Killian's POV

She gets up and walks to the kitchen. I put my head back on the couch, and laugh to myself. That woman is bloody amazing!
"Come on, lazy bones. Get over here and help me." Emma says from the kitchen.
I get up and walk over to her. As I walk Kara runs in front of me and causes me to fall.
"Killian!" Emma shrieks. "Are you okay?" She asks running over to me.
She grabs my shoulder helping me pull myself off the floor.

"Aye, I'm okay, love." I say with a grunt.

"Are you sure?" She asks scanning me from head to toe.

"I'm fine, Swan." I take her hands and make her look at me.
I pull her down so she's lying on the floor.

"Seriously?" She asks laughing "did you even really fall?"

"Aye, I did fall, but I took the opportunity, and turned it into something better." I smirk. She rolls her eyes, and strokes my face with her hand.

"Okay, pirate, let's go make dinner." She pushes my chest.

"As you wish, princess."
