|| Aboard the Jolly Roger || Emma and Killian
Killian awoke with a start immediately sitting up in his bed, taking a deep breath as he tried to calm his pounding heart. Nightmares again. It never failed that when he was finally able to sleep, he woke to the same nightmares he had been having for years. He ran his hand through his hair as he got out of bed, knowing that there would be no more sleep on this night.
He sighed heading out to the deck of the Jolly Roger. He didn't expect to see anyone else up at this time of night. Though Regina and the crocodile woke up early most of the time, they never seemed to have trouble sleeping. And the Charmings usually were the last ones up. However, Killian was surprised to see Emma standing on the deck looking out over the water.
Not wanting to startle her he sauntered over and stood next to her, looking over to see tears falling down her cheek. He moved his hand over to wipe a tear away, a sad look on his face. "Are you alright, love?" he asked quietly, though he already knew the answer. How could she be when her son was out there somewhere with two people who didn't have his best interests at heart?
