'Take me to Neverland Peter..'

Chapter 7.

Five Weeks.

That's how long it's been since I've seen her. Heard her beautiful voice. Seen her contagious smile. Her laugh. All of it. I miss it, a lot. I don't know what it is, but she brings me in and I can't help but wonder why?

Is this 'love' I'm feeling? No it couldn't be 'love' I'm Peter Pan I can't feel 'love'. Feeling 'love' would mean I'm growing up. I don't want to grow up so I will NOT feel 'love'. That is a grown up emotion and I am NOT a grown up.

Feeling those type of emotions would be crazy. I could never fall in love. Could I? No I couldn't. I don't wanna grow up. If that means getting rid of the person I like then so be it.

Growing up is over rated anyway. Shaking the thoughts out of my head I got off the tree branch I was resting on and flew to her window.

The first thing I noticed where the police men sitting outside. Worried I flew to her window only to see her mom crying and cops talking to her.

I grew more and more worried as I soon realized she wasn't here. Flying away I called and called her name. I never got a reply. Soon it became dark and started to rain.

I started to loose hope in ever finding her. Then I remembered to check 'The Center'. Flying as quickly as I could I flown to 'The Center' there I looked around calling out her name over and over again.

Finally I saw her laying by the fountain of youth. "Payton!" I screamed and flew to her side. Kneeling down beside her I placed my had on her wet slightly pink cheek.

Her eyes slowly opened and she looked at me. "P-Peter?" Her voice croaked. I knew. I could tell the moment she opened her eyes. I knew. I don't know why she did it or how she knew but she did.

"You drank from the fountain didn't you Payton?" I asked already knowing the answer. Payton smiled slightly and nodded. "Damn it!" I said before picking her up. I looked around for the doorway to Neverland. Finding It's door in the trunk of a tree I flew to it. "Hold on Pay. I got you."
