KILL ME PLEASE

I think my favorite part about this scene (aside from the searing hot kiss, obviously) is the way Hook’s eyelids flutter as he ever-so-slightly pulls away in the first gif.

He’s still awestruck that they finally kissed, not quite believing that it actually happened, and he gently leans back, gaze flicking down to look at her lips.

But Emma’s not having that, and in the second gif, she follows his mouth and leans right back into him to close that small gap between them.And the way Hook’s eyes finally close all the way and his mouth opens just the tiniest but, hoping for but not expecting another kiss.

I just…

I can’t handle these two.

I’ve always thought the moments after the kiss said everything about where they’re both “at” in the relationship. Hook affectionately nuzzles at her nose, and prepares for another kiss. He’s ready to enter into a romantic relationship with Emma. Emma is restraining herself. You see her struggle. She knows that another kiss wouldn’t just be a kiss. She senses escalation, commitment, passion. I’m that one moment, she tasted a glimpse of her future…and it rattles her.
