That's why he gave that whole speech to Neal and Belle about how much he loved them but couldn't be with them. Pan has stated before that he couldn't die unless Mr. Gold did. And Mr. Gold, on more than one occasion, has also said this. The dagger scene was basically that coming true. They both had to die for Pan to be eliminated.
