Did you miss that smile on Emma's face after she kissed Hook, in Neverland? She enjoyed it just as much as him. If it had been nothing, she would not have told Mary Margaret.

Had Hook given up on Emma, she would have become even worse! She would have thought, he was just like every other man, she ever met.... that he was just going to leave her. There is nothing rape-like about what Hook did. Emma and Hook were always friends, and partners. Sorry to say, but she never once refused his advances. Emma actually enjoyed having Hook around, and was the one who asked him to babysit Henry in 3.17.
