Adaline's POV

There was something wrong. I could feel it in the air. A shiver ran down my spine and I jumped up running from the beach with a final glance at the horizon before sprinting to Mary Margaret's apartment. As I skidded to a stop I saw Henry leaving the front door. "Henry!" I called and he smile running over to me.

"Hey, I kept you secret" he said and I grinned.

"Thanks, kid. But you didn't have to eat the paper" I said and he laughed a little.

"It stopped anyone else from reading it, didn't it" he said and I nodded.

"I guess it did. So, your alright then?" I asked and he pulled a face. "Explain" I ordered. He took a deep breath before beginning.

"Well, it turns out that my nightmare and the burn were a side effect of the sleeping curse. I was able to talk to Aurora through my nightmare and she was with Mary Margaret and Emma!" he explained excitedly.

"Hang on, who's Aurora?" I asked.

"Sleeping beauty?" he said and I nodded. I knew that story. "But I couldn't tell them what they needed to know so David was put under a sleeping curse so he could do it and they are going to come back through the well in the forest but mum and Mr Gold went there and I think they might be trying to stop them because Regina's mom, Cora, might come through as well and she's evil. So I'm going to stop them because they might stop my mom getting back" he finished.

"Mr Gold?" I asked and Henry nodded. I don't know why it hadn't crossed my mind before but for some reason I had forgotten about Rumpelstiltskin. I knew Mr Gold was him and I was glad that we hadn't met since the curse was lifted.

"Yeah, is that a problem?" Henry asked and I nodded stiffly.

"Henry you remember my story?" I asked.

"Most of it" he nodded.

"Mr Gold is Rumpelstiltskin" I explained and he nodded.

"I know but... oh..." he said realizing what I meant. "It will be fine. Come with me" he instead and ran off. I knew I couldn't let him go on his own so I sighed and ran after him.

We reached the well in the forest where Regina and Mr Gold where standing. A green whirlwind like thing flying around. Magic. "Mom?" Henry asked and Regina turned to look at us. I glanced at Mr Gold and he raised and eyebrow but said nothing. "Your not helping Emma and Mary Margaret are you?"

"I'm helping you, Henry" she said and crouched to his level. 

"What are you talking about?" he asked backing to my side.

"Your going to kill them!" I snapped and stepped forwards a little but with a flick of his wrist Gold sent be flying across the forest. My world turned black and I passed out.

I was sat in front of my mirror on my dressing table and brushed my hair out. First night on the ship. It felt weird to not be sleeping in my warm bed at home. I knew it was only Killian, but I still felt nerves in the pit of my stomach. I heard the door open and my eyes flickered up to see him stood in the door way watching him. I turned to look at him, rather than his reflection and he smiled. I still saw the Killian I had first met, in his smile and the way he looked at me. However I did see the new one as well. In his clothes, I saw the sadness and I knew he missed Liam. So did I, I got on well with his brother. I loved both versions of my Killian. But it was still something I might need to get used to. "You look beautiful" he said and walked forwards shutting the door and I could feel heat rising up my cheeks. There was a double bed in this cabin and I assumed that I was to share it with Killian rather than sleep in a hammock with the crew. But I had never shared a bed with a man, and I was nervous. "Are you alright?" he asked and sat on the edge of the bed to pull his boots and jacket off.

"I'm fine..." I muttered and glanced at the bed. He understood instantly.

"Oh... I can sleep somewhere else if you want" he said and I shook my head.

"No... " I said but I was unsure of what else to say. Killian sighed and walked over to stand behind me. I turned to face the mirror again and he began to run his hands threw my hair.

"It's alright, love. It's only me" he promised and I forced a smile. I knew he was right and to be honest I wasn't sure why I was nervous. I just was. I leaned back and my head rested against his stomach.

"What happened to us?" I asked and he frowned.

"What do you mean?" he asked and continued to run his hand through my hair.

"We became pirates. I ran away from home. We both lost someone close to us. It's not how I planned it in my head" I sighed.

"How did you plan it?" he asked and I vaguely noticed that even his voice had changed a little. It was more ruff and uncontrolled. I kinda liked it. But don't tell him that.

"I don't know. I guess I planned growing old in a house by the sea. With you" I said and looked up at him. He smiled and shook his head. He dropped my hair and took my hands, pulling me to my feet.

"I love you" he said and kissed me.I kissed him back and there seemed to be more passion than any other kiss we had shared up to that moment. "Don't be scared" he whispered and I was no longer terrified as he pulled me over to the bed not breaking the kiss.
