"This will be navigation more than astronomy." He can identify them, and use them to find his way, but he doesn't study them or anything. He wraps his arm around her shoulders, the arm with the hand so that he can point up at the sky and show her what he means. "That star there, that's the North Star. It's the brightest star in the sky, and used in navigation."
In that moment, Emma is just so happy. She never really thought she could be this happy. Of course she knows the North Star, but she's more than content to let him tell her about it. "It's beautiful." She says with a smile, still hardly able to believe she's a married woman with a wonderful life ahead of her.
"If you can find that star, you can find your way home." The actual method is more complicated than that, but that's the basics of it. "I suppose that makes you like my North Star." Since he'd been finding his way back to her for so long, both literally and figuratively.
"You're my home." She tells him. It sounds cheesy, but it's the truth and then when he basically says the same about her, she can't help but smile. "Well, you know my family, we always find each other."
"Aye. As annoying as your parents sometimes are, they are always there when someone needs them to be." And they've even accepted him as part of it all, so he won't complain.
"They are." Emma agrees. And now Hook is part of all of that. He's family. He was family before today, but it made things official. It was funny, when she had first met Hook, she never thought she'd end up marrying him.
"Just do me a favor and don't tell David I called him annoying." It's not the best start with his...father-in-law, but on the other hand, it's a lot better than the actual start they had. "I didn't really mean it anyway."
"I know you didn't." Emma says. "David...Dad knows too." Hook is family now, and they'd all come a long way together. No matter what they thought of one another in the past they had put aside their differences and embraced him into the family, because Emma loves him.
"Good." He turns back to the sky. "The North Star is important because the positions of the other stars around it tell you where you are. I can show you what I mean sometime, if you like, but it's more complex than we want tonight."
