Jenny's POV

After I agreed to playing along in his game, I felt like what I was doing was alright, fighting to keep my true love and Neverland alive. But at the same time, I felt the slightest bit uneasy.

I quickly shake my head as if I was shaking the uncertainty off me.

"Something wrong?" Peter asked. I shake my head no and squeeze his hand reassuringly.

It's going to be fine. I thought more to myself than for Peter, but he wouldn't know.

As we silently walk back to camp hand in hand, I couldn't help but think something was going to go wrong, because things like this always go wrong, I see it all the time in tv shows.

What happens if we lose the game? How am I going to live without Peter?

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I spotted the glowing fire light from the campfire in the distance.

There was a few lost boys still mulling about the camp not doing particularly anything. The rest must have gone to sleep.

"Can I sleep in your tent tonight?" I timidly ask, looking down trying to hide my embarrassment.

"Did you think you had a choice?" Peter smirked, quirking his eyebrow almost up to his hairline. I playfully roll my eyes and shake my head.

I lean in waiting for him to close the gap then I cover his lips with my hands.

"Did you really think I forgot your punishment?" I say tracing his lips with my fingers slowly teasing him.

"Yes actually." He lets out a frustrated groan and grips my waist.

"Oh poor baby, it'll be over by the morning, I promise." I cooed, pinching his cheeks.

"My goodness, get a room!" Felix murmured loud enough for me to hear.

"I will as long as you get a better personality." I snidely remarked. I heard Peter chuckle from behind me and snaked his arms around me, resting his chin on my head.

"This is why I love you, you've got fire, I like fire." I whispers in my ear.

"I'm gonna throw you into that fire and let's see if you still like fire." I playfully threatened.

I love you too.


In the Morning

Jenny's POV

I slowly wake up to birds chirping and soft snoring behind me. I turn around and face a sleeping Peter, his arms that are around me pull me closer to him.

I lean in and kiss him on the lips until I feel him kiss back. We kissed for a few more seconds then pulled away and look at each other.

"I was awake the whole time." Peter said.

"Were you waiting for me to give you a kiss?" I asked, raising one eyebrow like he does. He nods then kisses me again.

"Jenny? Are you in here- EEWW!" Kevin exclaimed covering his eyes, face full of disgust. I hear Peter chuckle beside me.

"Kevin, you should've knocked before you came in or else you wouldn't have seen that." I try to contain my laughter, but I fail miserably.

Kevin crawled on the bed without warning and looked closely at us. What is he thinking about?

"I thought couples weren't supposed to kiss until after marriage," Kevin blurts out causing Peter to choke on the beverage he was drinking. "wait, are you two already married?! Oh my gosh that's so cool, I have to tell everyone!"

"No Kevin!" I panick. He looks at me weird then realization takes over his face.

"Ooohhh, you want it to be a secret? I got you, you're secret's safe with me." He zips his lips then stops talking.

"Kevin we're n-" I start but was cut off by Peter.

"Thank you Kevin we appreciate it, we'll tell the boys at the right time." Peter smirks looking my direction.

This boy is going to be the death of me.

Kevin quickly nods smiling in excitement, jumps off the bed then hurries out of the tent.

"You play too much. What if Kevin can't keep a secret? What will we do then?" I inquire glaring at him.

He wraps his arms around me, pulling me on top of him. "Oh don't act like you don't like it, love." He whispers resting his head in the crook of my neck.

"We should plan." I said.

"For the wedding? Your dress should be green like my suit, and we should have lily flowers as your bouquet and maybe-" He's basically planning our whole wedding in five seconds.

"Peter, I'm not taking about a wedding! I'm talking about the Truest Believer stuff, shouldn't we set up the game board so we know how to win?" I cut him off.

He sits up and holds my hands to his face with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Peter Pan never fails, neither will you Jenny." What's with him and talking like there is a third person?

"We have plenty of time to plan our win, in the meantime lets lay in bed all day and talk about pointless things." Peter murmurs adorably. (A/n: Relationship goals af 👌)

And that's what we did, we laid in bed all day talking about things we thought we'd never get to talk about to everyone. In those moments I felt normal, like how things are supposed to be when you're in a relationship.

But I couldn't help but feel uneasy about the game that I decided to play. This feeling might go away eventually.

Hopefully...
