in her dreams

Every night she would dream of a boy. He would lie in bed with her and talk to her about a magical place called Neverland.

She always enjoyed going to sleep because she knew he'd be there, waiting for her in her dreams. She was only 6 and had a wild imagination. She believed he was not only in her dreams, but that he was actually there.

One night when she went to sleep, she dreamt of nothing. The next night was the same. Nothing.

He continued to not come until she was 17. One night, she saw him at her window. She thought she was dreaming, when we all knew she wasn't. "You came back. I thought I'd never see you again", she said, tears threatening to fall out of her eyes. "Of course I came back, but this time you're not dreaming love. This is real, and I want you to come to Neverland with me and be my beautiful lost girl", he said.

She trusted him. Although she hadn't seen him in what seemed like 50 years. "Of course I'll come to Neverland with you", she said smiling.

"Well then what are we waiting for?" He said smiling back, grabbing her hand.

"Wait. I never got your name", she said.

"Peter, Peter Pan."
