Killian's POV

Emma and I are moving in to our own place and my dad is helping us out big time. He says its the least he could do for me coming to be apart of the family business. Emma on the other hand has somethings at her parents she wants to get, but she doesnt want to see her father. It upsets me that he doesnt seem to understand just how happy this choice had made his daughter.

"Okay love your mother said to just go in and get your stuff. I'll be with you so everything will be okay." I say.

"I know. I just dont want him to start in with you." Emma says placing her head in my shoulder.

"Don worry about it love. I can handle myself. Now my dear lets go." I say.

We walked inside and Snow greeted us nicely and as for Emma's father he wasnt to happy. Emma and I just went into her old room and started packing her stuff up.

"Swan I know you think he hates you, but I know he doesnt. Its me he hates, but I cant understand why its you he is pushing away." I say.

"Because he wants me to stay and be daddy's little girl again and I wont. He knew how unhappy I was and he was always there. Then I meet you and that unhappy life turned into something wonderful and happy and he hates it. He knew all I wanted was for someone that wasnt my friend or family to love me. He knew thats all I wanted and I thought once he saw how you did that for me he would be happy. Though he wasnt and you know what Im okay with that." She says packing her stuff.

As I help I found an old photo of Emma and her father and I felt terrible that I ripped them apart. All the other old photos were of Emma and her parents and its crushed me to see just how close her and her father were.

"Umm... Do you want to take these?" I ask.

"Nope. Just give them to my mom. I cant be reminded of someone who doesnt respect my choice." She says.

I noticed she packed photos of her and Belle and her and her mother, but all the ones she didnt want to take had her father in them. I went downstairs and gave Snow the photos as Emma instructed.

"So she really doesnt want to take these?" Snow asks.

"Nope and I think we all know the reason. Though she is taking the others." I say.

"Well thanks you for helping her and please take care of her." She says.

"Dont worry. I'll keep Emma safe." I say.

I headed back up to help Emma who was now sitting on her bed looking upset.

"Why does he hate me?" Emma questions with tears in her eyes.

"Hey beautiful he doesnt hate you. He just doesnt like that Im in your life." I say sitting beside her.

"Well why not your nothing but a sweet loving person. Does he want me with an asshole who wont love me?" She questions placing her head on my chest.

I looked at my crying Swan and I knew what I had to do. I gentle moved her off of me and I stood up.

"Emma I love you, but you choosing me is making you upset because your father doesnt like you choice. So maybe we shouldnt move in together or even be together anymore. I think maybe the best thing for your family is if I take myself out of your life." I say.

"What? No. I love you. Please Killian dont do this. This has nothing to do with you." She says.

"Emma you father hates me and is avoiding you because of me of course this is my fault. Your crying because of it." I say.

"Killian I love you and I want to be with you. I want to live with you and have you with me all the time. The reason why Im so upset about my father is this. He and I would write notes when I was a kid and I found them. Most of them say that he would support any choices I made as long as they made me happy. So Im upset because he never actually meant that he lied to me. So I cant lose you too. Cause if you leave me I will know its my father's fault and I will hate him forever. Look I love you so please dont break up with me because you want to make everything better for my family." She says walking over to me.

"Swan are you sure? I just want you happy. Thats all I want is for you to be happy." I say.

"I know and thats why it would hurt more. You willing to give up your happiness so I could have happiness with my family again is just to wonderful and painful. I cant lose you. Im sure one day my dad will come around or maybe he never will, but I cant lose you." She says wrapping her arms around my neck.

"I cant lose you either love. I just wanted to make it better, but I guess it would have made it worse. So my Emma will you still move in with me and be my Swan?" I ask her.

"I'd love too." She says.

I placed my lips to her and felt her smile in the kiss. I would have been fine no matter what she choose, but Im glad I make her happy. Thats all I want to do. All I want is for my sweet Emma to be happy and Im glad thats what she will be. Sure things are rocky with her father, but Im starting to realize that Emma loves me and wont give me up no matter what. I guess I would have done the same if my father wasnt on our side. It is easier to choice family, but it takes alot of courage to choose someone you love over family and thats why I love my Emma so much. She had the guts to do what others wouldnt and I just cant wait to see what our future holds for us.
