That father figure position was proposed, unrecipricated, and then completely shut down by a traitrous Hook, so whatever was between him and Bae is over. I believe that Hook (who also lost a lot of time in Neverland and sleeping in Enchanted Forrest because of Cora) might have fatherly desires, but no longer for Bae, but maybe towards Henry out of a sense of honor or obligation. That's what made him turn back in the first place. He didn't want to orphan the son of the man he inadvertantly helped to orphan. That connection made from his wanting to help Henry could bring him closer to Emma. It's a possibility, and Colin O'Donoghue's talents should not be wasted next season. Too much charm!
