18. Not Anymore

COMMENT YOUR THOUGHTS YAY

It was Saturday and her birthday - which so far, was going great.

She had just woken up, a silly smile spreading on her face when she remembered his surprise and how she couldn't remember anything after she had hugged him.
Did she really fall asleep in his arms? Goshhhhh she was blushing now.
She felt like a teenager, wanting to squeal of excitement and just go downstairs to see him again.

She found him on the couch after changing Henry's diaper and going to make breakfast. The TV was on and he was sleeping.

She turned it off, a little bit sad because she was really so excited to hear him talk to her today, but understanding his messed up human clock with all his night shifts.

Her phone rang at 10am. It was her father.
The second she picked up, a loud "HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYY" sounded from her speaker.

"Thank you, mom and dad." She said, blushing but gladly they couldn't see it.

"Ahhhde" Henry mumbled in her arms, making Mary Margaret really excited that he was finally babbling and that's how their conversation unrolled.

"See you tonight, sweetheart. Hey is Killian coming?" Her father asked.

"Oh- I-I don't know. I didn't know he was invited." She chuckled. "I'll ask him."

"We have food enough for him! I was hungry when I went shopping." Mary Margaret said.

"Honey, you're always hungry now." Her father teased her.

"I'm creating a human inside of me! That's not fair!"

"Dad, no uterus, no opinion." Emma said.

David started laughing really hard and that's when she realized it wasn't just David but also Killian who had just woken up and was next to Henry's kitchen chair, laughing too at what she had just said.

She gave him a knowing smile before saying goodbye to her parents and hanging up.

"Well, good morning."

"Kaaaaaaaah!" Henry babbled, and he babbled really loud as usual.

"Good morning." Emma chuckled. "I was just talking to my parents... would you like to come have dinner with us?"

"For real? It's your birthday, love."

Love. She loved how he still called her that.

Gosh she was really giddy today.

"Yeah... and you could come with us." She said, giving him a smile that was quickly reflected with his own.

"Okay, then. I'll just sleep a bit before we go."

"Yeah, it's okay. Just be ready around 6."

Her parents had welcomed them in, hugging her until she couldn't breathe and kissing her head like they haven't seen her in ages. She swallowed the tears that wished to come out, the feeling of being loved too overwhelming on her today.

After they had dinner they stayed on the couch for a while, chatting and the men watching a soccer game and cheering for Whitecaps while Mary Margaret and Emma talked, Henry in her mother's lap.

For a moment, Mary Margaret excused herself, saying she had to go to the bathroom, but not more than 5 minutes after she came back with the cake and candles and Killian turned off the lights and she's mumbling "you guys didn't have to do this" but her father's smile at her says otherwise.
