Single Mother

Chapter 29

Killian's POV

I woke up on Emma's couch and noticed that Lily was still asleep on me as was Emma. Wow this felt nice it felt like I was with these two wonderful people that I am meant to protect. Though Emma doesnt feel this way so I just have to let go and move on. I got up slowly and once I got up I placed a small kiss on both of their foreheads and then I left. I went home and David had invited himself over to talk to me.

"Listen I know Im not the boss of you, but dating my brother's ex is not a good thing to do. Especially when you have some sort of feelings for Emma." David says.

"Dave, I like Emma as a friend and I like her daughter as my little buddy, but thats all. Even if I liked Emma as more she doesnt feel the same. So can we move on." I say.

"No we cant move on. I know you spent all day at Emma's putting together a play house for Lily and you just got home now. Meaning you stayed the night at Emma's." He says.

"Yeah I did stay the night. I fell asleep on the couch while watching Frozen and when I woke Lily and Emma were both asleep on my shoulders." I say.

"And how did that make you feel?" He asks.

"Oh my god David it made me feel like I had... Had... You shut up." I say.

"You liked it. You liked having them with you. You care about them. You love Emma and you think of Lily as a daughter. Dont deny it Killian." He says.

"Okay okay. I do think Im falling in love with Emma and I think I could be a father to Lily, but you know what that wont happen. Emma doesnt want me that way and that crushes me. When I woke up to them this morning I felt as if I was there to protect them. Though I have made piece of the idea that Emma and I will never happen and so should you." I say and walked upstairs.

I waited for David to leave and then I took out my phone. I stared at the photo I took of Emma and Lily asleep on the couch. God I wish I was apart of that, but I have a girlfriend now. Who I havent seen because I have been with Emma every night putting our.. Her daughter to bed. Yeah Im in love with Emma Swan and yeah that night when we slept together always plays in my head. Yeah I want more then what we are now, but Emma said its a one time thing. So I have to respect her wishes and just leave it at that. A one time thing is what she said, oh how I wish I could hold her in my arms forever.
