The sound of emptieness and blinding feeling of sunshine awake me to the next day. I sit up from my hide make shift bed and strech. All the boys where still dozing off. Peters bed was empty with a rustled unmade bed. I flick open my suit case and eat another peice of fruit. Since the boys where asleep i climb out of the tree hide out.

When im out i walk along a worn out trail that leads to the beach. The forest was so green and vibrant. I couldnt get over it. There was a jingle of bells in my ear ,as tinker bell sits on my shoulder. She still looked pretty pissed that i was here. I smile toward her, and she sticks up her nose.

"You seem to hate me" tink nodded at this. Im almost down the trail to the beach in sight has i ask "Why do u hate me so, i bearly know you". Tink flew up from my shoulder as golden dust sprinkled out from below her . She pointed her finger at me and a fluster of jingle bells envade my ears.

I walk onto the beach as tinker bell circles me again. "Im sorry? if i did anything". She stops flying with a small smirk and i look down to see the golden dust all over me.

I let the dust fall from my fingers.

"Think a happy thought" I herd peter say as i turn to see him behind me. "Come on itll be fun" peter said.

I only nod and think of me and my father. How he and i use to play tag, and walk to the park. How mother use to be nice and sweet.

My feet take off the ground. I let out a small shout. "Haha! Its fun isnt it"peter says has he flies circles around me. I float trying to get the hang of things. I look like a bird moving my arms up and down. Peter laughs, and helps gide me.

After practice of flying around the beach, i got the hang of things. I wasnt as good has peter but i felt like i was doing great.

He flew up high and motioned me to follow. I followed in pursuit, close behind him. Stopping at the clouds i look down at never land. It was such a wonderful veiw. The ocean sparkled blue against the green island. A white speck was off to the side , and a ship was visable aswell.

I pointed to the ship "Thats the Jolly" pauses . I had gotten the name wrong before how do i expect to know it now. "Haha the Jolly Roger" peter finished for me. "It "belongs" to Captin Hook and his crew" he said. "Why do they call it Jolly, that crew is the grumpest i've ever seen". Peter let out a laugh "Haha" . He paused to catch his breath. "No ones ever called that to the old Cod fish".

He rubbed his head "Say how do u know what he's like". His head tilted toward me waiting for an answer. "How else do u think i got here, doesnt seem like u could swim" i tease. He looked at me with a goofy grin. "I snuck on, when the boat hit the water i snuck off into the dingy" I contuie. "Humpft, never thought a girl could wonder onto never land" he said.

"Why so?" i answer, not offened by the question. "Well girls are usually to smart to wonder here" i give a giggle. "You should meet half the girls in the square, there as bright as a dimming candle light", as i said this peter sat on a cloud. He motioned me to join him, and i did.

Peter sat with his legs in a criss cross, and i let my feet to dangle. I take a good look at the ground and relize something. I havent bathed in days. In an uneasy tone i ask "Where exactly do you go to bath". He tilted his head "Why?". "Beacuse i need one" i say swinging my legs. "Well why didnt u say so" he lept off the cloud and dived down ward "Come on Run Away follow me"!!

I slide off the cloud and fly after him. He flew down to a clearing in the trees where a small body of water sat. A lagoon. He stood on a rock and i landed on a smooth rock next to him.

He looked at me with a smirk, a joyfull and fun smirk. The water rippled and splashed and figures emerged from the water.

Woman. . . No mermaids.

"Whoa, this island is full of suprises" i think. A mermaid with a pink top and fin waved and said "Hello peter!". She seemed happy to see him. Another one in blue swam up to his rock and rested her elbows on it. "Its wonderful of u to vist us peter" the blue on said with a tail flip. More in different color tops crowded around peters rock.

"Its good to see you too girls" peter said enjoying the attion. "But" he jumped up dramticly on his feet "I've come so u can meet someone new". He pointed toward me. Until he did that i was completely ignored.

"A girl"!? They seemed to be in complete shock.

I flinched just a little, these mermaids where bigger than me and i was surronded by water. "How unlikely of a girl showing up" whinned one in green. Most of them swam around me now, as i stand postioned on the rock.

Peter flew above me, casting a shadow ,over my hat and down. "Now girls, girls calm down" he said and flew down to my side. "Runaway here just wants to clean up" i caught him sending a wink to the mermaid in pink.

With a quick pull peter took my hat and flew to a rock farther away. "Hey!" i playfully shouted "Im gonna need th-.

Before i knew it soap water rushed over my head soaking me and my clothes.

I let out a yelp from the cold shock of the water. There was giggling and splashes from the lagoon. "What was that for" i cry out. Peter and the mermaids laugh"You said u needed a bath" peter said between breaths.

An idea light up in my head and i turn in circles and see the large shell they poured the water from. Has peter pan laughs with the mermaids i fill the shell up and picks it up. With the water in it, it was a bit heavybut nothing bad. I postioned my feet and swung toward the laughing boy.

Peter is soaked in water and so are the some how dry heads of the mermaids. I laugh has peter looks at me with a childish glare in his eyes. The mermaids scoff and dive under water. "What the heck was that for" he asked and flew near me.

"You where not smelling to bright your self" i teasd. Peter smirked and set the golfer hat onto a bit of land. He flew fast as mermaids began to emrge back to the surface of the lagoon."You've gotten the soap part down" he said as he flew closer arms outstreched toward me. "Now its time to rinse!". He knocked into me throwing me into the water. What a child he was.

I swim to the surface now completely soaked. Holding up againt the pull of my wet clothes i rest hald body onto a rock. I lock eyes with peter and wave him down. "Hey come here" i said. He chuckled as he flew down. "Did u not hav- " i cut him off and grb his ankle pulling him into the water.

I stayed on the rock at the mermaids splash at me and try to pull peter up. He flies up before they could though. " Hehe what a fun bath" peter smiled and grabbed my wrist. He flew up bringing me with him, i managed to grab hold of my hat has he bolted into the air. "Now its time to dry off!" he soared high. The yellow dust washed off in the lagoon so it was his free will.

The speed he flew as he bolted up worked well as a drying method. Then i felt him let go of me.I begin to fall and scream as i see him laugh. Turning cirles in the air i contuie to scream as the ground catches up to me. Feet away from the ground he catchs my ankle and holds me upside down. "You dry now?" he said as if i didnt almost fall to my death.

I couldnt speak and my face was pale. "why" i mustered. He laughed with a childish grin." You said u wanted to be dry, didnt'cha". He flew closer to the ground and set me down on my stoamch. Peter sat next to me as i pulled myself up, it was amazing how my hat managed to land right next to me.

I slide the golfers hat back on and sit up look up at peter. "I just saw my life flash before my eyes" i say with a similar grin. "O" he said and flew next to me " How was it?" he asked. "Very , intresting" I said , my grin sliding to a small frown.He elbowed my shoulder and dragged me to my feet.

He looks at me, even if he was childish and a little self centered i saw the glimmer in his eyes. I stare back at his. They where amazing to look into. They made me feel calm and welcome. He leaned toward me. I felt my face heat up and i couldnt pull away. His hand held my wrist and i froze in whatever this feeling was.

"EWWWW" i herd all of a sudden, it breaks the mood "THEY'ARE GONNA KISS". The lost boys stood to the side, hell knows how long they've been there. I break away and mess with my hat. "No, no" i said fumbling on my words. Peter laughs and pulls an acorn out of his pocket.

He offered it to me "Take it". "What is it" i ask and take the acorn. I knew what it was but it was so sudden i had to ask. "Its a kiss" he said and his feet lift off the ground and he flew above me now. I keep the confusion if it all in and slide it into my pocket "Thank you".

And with this we contuie on the day like we did yesterday. We played hide and seek, Tag, Treasure hunt and chase. It was the most fun i'd had in years.

Soon it was dark again , i found myself back at the beach sitting calmly alone ...
