A Little Miracle ~ (6×09)
Emma took a deep breath before she walked out onto the porch
of the convent. The whole ordeal had been tiring, worrying, and exciting all at
once; how Belle must have been feeling through it all, Emma could only wonder.
But it all seemed worth it now, the new mother back in the small room holding
her newborn baby boy.On the porch, Killian was leaning against the railing on his
forearms, looking around for any sight of Gold or similar bothersome presences.
He took the job seriously, Emma could tell. Protecting his friend, the people
he loves: sounded like Killian.“You can breathe again.” she said as she made her way
towards him. He whipped his head around the second he heard her voice,
straightening up slightly, “Healthy baby boy,” she continued, walking into his
arms, “and healthy happy mother.” she finished, voice muffled where her face
burrowed into the leather of Killian’s jacket. She could literally feel the air
rush out of him.“Belle’s okay?” he asked, despite Emma’s reassurances. It
had taken the drive from Granny’s to the convent to convince Killian Belle
wasn’t going to die. She knew it came from a good place; labour was a very
different thing back in the Enchanted Forest, a fair few mothers dying in
childbirth. It had taken some persuading to pry Killian away from her side.
