Petra's POV

" I'm sorry, Petra. I panicked when you pushed me so I just grabbed your arm. " , Devin mumbled.

Tonight was my last night in Neverland until I flew to Beacon Hills and I knew that talking to my friend, Devin, made my nerves somewhat calm down. I decided to stray away from the celebration to have a conversation with Devin. We currently were just walking around the dark forest. My friend rambled about how sincere he was for pulling me down, but also agrued that he only shoved me to get my attention since I wasn't listening to him in the first place.

" It's okay, love. If you want my attention, then poke me. Don't try to kill me. " , I said.

" If I had killed you then I would rather face Captain Hook than your brother. " , Devin murmured.

I sighed before stopping in my tracks. Devin apparently wasn't paying attention and bumped into me from behind. I turned around to face the lost boy and crossed my arms.

" Do you really fear my brother? " , I asked with curiosity.

" Yeah. Every lost boy does. " , Devin slowly nodded.

" Why? " , I frowned. " I know he can be strict and stern, but he is much more than that. "

" I know he is much more than that. Pan is a powerful bloody demon with his unpredictable magic abilities, his alien green eyes, and his insane mind. " , Devin stated.

I glared at the lost boy in front of me. I tapped my foot and curled my lip into a snarl. My arms were still crossed above my chest.

" Did I say something wrong? " , Devin scratched his head.

" Alien green eyes? " , I repeated darkly.

Devin stayed quiet.

" Insane mind? " , I repeated darkly.

Devin opened his mouth but no words were heard.

" Do you not realize that I have green eyes and my mind is probably insane as well? " , I questioned him.

" Well...I...um...Petra..." , his words fumbled.

I rolled my eyes before deciding to walk away from him. Don't get me wrong, Devin is a good friend of mine that I adore, but sometimes he can be a mouthful. It's no wonder Peter and him don't get along.

" Petra! " , I heard Devin shout.

I started to walk faster.

" Petra! Petra! " , Devin exclaimed before I felt two arms wrap around my waist.

" What now? " , I asked irritated before removing his arms from my waist.

My body was spun around before I came face to face with my friend. He placed his hands on my shoulders and looked around at our surroundings before glancing at me.

" I'm sorry. " , he whispered. " I'm sorry for offending you. I know I'm the worst person to be around, but I don't lose you as a friend. "

My eyes widened at Devin's response. I didn't expect him to apologize to me. I didn't expect an apology like that. Especially from a lost boy.

" Please don't tell Pan that I apologized. " , he mumbled.

I zipped my lips and pretended to throw away the key before slightly smiling at Devin. I couldn't stay mad at me forever. He already doesn't get along with my brother, so I didn't want him to feel alone since I'm his only company, aside from the lost boys.

" Your secret is safe with me. " , I assured him.

The brown-haired boy sighed in relief and then held my hand to only pull me forward to continue walking with him. I decided to tell Devin about the favor that I owed my brother and oh boy was he full of questions.

" Beacon Hills? Where is that at? " , he asked.

" It's a small town in California, USA. " , I replied.

" California? That's sounds like a nice place to visit. " , Devin nodded.

" Well I will see when I get there. " , I lightly chuckled. " Do you want me to bring something from California? "

" Yeah. Just surprise me. " , Devin smiled.

" Alrighty. " , I smiled slightly.

" So you have to kill a bunch of doctors? " , he questioned.

" Yep. Those twerps decided to mess with the wrong person. " , I gritted my teeth.

" But if you kill the doctors, then don't the people remain sick? " , Devin pointed out.

" These aren't normal doctors, Devin. They are called dread doctors. " , I corrected him.

" Dread doctors? " , he asked in confusion.

" Yeah. Supernatural doctors with some weird abilities. " , I nodded.

" Supernatural? Those are a thing? " , he gasped.

" I guess so. " , I shrugged.

" You better be careful, Petra. " , Devin said. " I still need you in one piece. "

" I will, love. " , I lightly chuckled.

Devin slowly nodded before we both stopped in our tracks to see Peter leaning against a tree with his hands shoved into his pockets.

" Aren't you suppose to be at camp? " , I gave him a bored look.

" The celebration ended. " , Peter stated.

" Oops. " , Devin mumbled.

" Do you remember the Cheshire Cat from Wonderland? " , I randomly asked my brother.

" Yes. Why? " , Peter raised his eyebrow.

" These random appearances of yours remind me of him. " , I nodded. " Always stalking people. "

" It's my bloody island. I can do whatever I want. " , Peter scoffed.

" And stalking people isn't how you make friends, Peter. " , I fake smiled at him.

" It's just creepy. " , Devin said bluntly.

My brother narrowed his eyes at Devin before waving him off.

" Go to bed. " , he ordered.

" Right now? " , Devin groaned.

" Love. " , I said softly while patting his head.

" Fine. " , the lost boy sighed before saluting to my brother and giving me a thumbs up before walking towards the opposite direction into the dark forest.

Peter watched Devin leave and looked around to make sure nobody was near us. He approached me slowly and pulled out his hands from his pockets and crossed his arms. A smirk was plastered on his face.

" You owe me a favor. " , he grinned mischievously.
