《Hooks Raven{Peter Pan}》Chapter 22
Advertisement
*Ravens POV*
Most woman think that when they are in love, their partner is just the most perfect person ever. I don't know if that's the same for boys but woman are blinded by love.
This is how I feel about Peter. It may not show when I tease him and call him names but it is very true.
This is why on the morning of my wedding I woke up crying. Not because I was happy. I was scared and really sad that the man I would be seeing at the end of the Isle was not Peter. It was Andrew. The man I had vowed never to show any interest in. And I'm not one to break a promise.
"Raven! Good morning darling. How did you sleep?" Samantha gushed bursting into the room.
"Good morning Samantha. I slept horribly." I said stiffly.
"Oh my gosh I am so excited about the wedding. I am so happy that you chose me to be your chief bridesmaid." She said walking over and pulling me out of bed.
"It's not like I had much choice in the matter." I muttered. I had only been here for four days but Andrew wanted to marry me now.
"Okay so I have your dress here. I had jade make it for you. Of course I helped a small bit with the design and things but it was mostly her." She kept blabbing on about it and I just zoned out and started brushing my hair.
"There we go. Raven look at your lovely dress. Isn't it just the prettiest?" Samantha said holding up my dress.
I actually threw up a little in my mouth. The dress was absolutely hideous. It was big and puffy with huge sleeves. There was diamonds stuck on all over the place and it had a matching bag. It was anything but pretty.
"Of course I have a different head piece for you. And as for the brides maids, we'll have pink dresses." She continued.
She walked over and took off my pyjamas. She then proceeded to put the dress on over my head. It was really itchy and it weighed a ton.

"Oh Raven. You look so lovely. That dress really is fabulous. It looks amazing on you. I'll go and call the others. Don't look in the mirror until we have done your hair and makeup." She said before dashing outside.
I didn't want to look in the mirror. I hated this dress and everything to do with it. Not to mention that it was way too tight so I could barely breath.
I was just about to try and loosen it when I heard Samantha walk back in with my troupe of bridesmaids. There were eight in total. All of them were girls from the Cove.
"You see. I told you she looks wonderful." Samantha said to them. They all nodded in agreement and started doing my hair and makeup.
I noticed that three of them who must have only been fourteen or so, held back and just watched as if they weren't allowed to help.
I was actually so bored that I nearly fell asleep only to be startled awake by someone coming up and putting something on my neck.
"It's just me. Sorry I didn't mean to startle you. I just thought I'd give you this." It was one of the girls from earlier. One of the younger ones.
"Oh. Thank you. Where are the others?" I asked looking around. The room was empty apart from me and the girl.
"They all went to get ready but I was done quickly so I came to give this to you. I found it near the bins with your old clothes. I'm Cara by the way." She said giving me the necklace. It was the one Wendy had given to me.
"Did Peter Pan give that to you?" She asked quietly.
"No. My sister did. How do you know about Peter?" I asked her.
"I just guessed. Oh this is Kiara and Jenny." She said pointing to the other two girls who had just come in.
"Nice to meet you both. Um do you think you could help me? My dress is way too tight. Do you know how to loosen it?" I asked them.

"Of course." Kiara said taking out a small knife and cutting the strings attached the back of the dress. "Don't tell anyone. Technically Andrew is supposed to do that according to Samantha."
"Thanks. Where did you get that knife from? I don't know of any girls who just randomly have knives in their back pocket." I said.
"Just for protection. And that's not the only thing we have on us." Jenny answered lifting up her skirt and showing me a sword that was hidden underneath.
"Wow. Even if didn't do that." I said very surprised. Clearly these girls weren't like all of the others in pirate cove.
"Yes well today you will. Here quickly before Samantha comes back. I'll put it on for you." Cara lifting up my dress and attaching the sword to my leg.
"And then I told him "honey, you're not my type however I do know a person who is available." I heard Samantha gossiping on the other side of the door.
I saw Cara, Kiara and Jenny stand back into the shadows and I quickly tucked my necklace into my bodice.
Samantha burst into the room wearing one of the horrible pink bridesmaid dresses that every one was forced to wear.
"Raven I just got your head piece and...your wedding photographer. He is so good you have no idea. Your photos will be printed and you will get to see them immediately." She said walking over and putting on the awful head thing that weighed even more than the dress if possible.
"Okay ladies give her some room. Now if I could just get you all to pose nicely for me and I'll take a picture of the bride and her bridesmaids." The photographer said holding up his camera.
Samantha arranged everyone in a circle and we took a few pictures before Samantha decided it was time to go. Cara and Kiara helped me stand up and Jenny handed me my bouquet.
"Ready?" She whispered.
"No way." I whispered back.
The girls lined up in front of me and I stood at the back. By myself. I heard the music start playing and my bridesmaids walked out in front of me. Andrew had decided to hold the wedding on board dad's ship. It was covered in flowers and ribbons and other silly things.
I walked out into the sunshine and everyone stood up on either side of me. All of the pirates were invited of course and they had tried to look their best. Which didn't make much of a difference anyway
I looked passed the cloud of pink that was my bridesmaids and I saw Andrew standing at the end of the makeshift isle. He was wearing a bright yellow suit with purple bow tie. He looked almost as awful as I did.
I finally reached the end of the Isle and the ceremony began. I soon zoned out and started to look around at the guests. There was a few people that I noticed standing there including Mr
Smee. He was sobbing away into a hankie.
I saw someone at the corner of my eye suddenly and I was about to turn around to get a better look when suddenly I heard Andrew start saying his vows.
"And do you Raven Alexandra Elizabeth Hook take Andrew Francesco Parkins to be your lawfully wedded husband?" I heard the man say. That wasn't my name for starters.
I suddenly saw that person again but this time they were closer. So close in fact that I could see their face. It was Hunter.
He was standing behind Andrew and shaking his head. He mouthed the words "Don't do it. The others are coming." Or something along those lines.
I knew what I had to do. I looked Andrew right in the eye.
"No."

I am not professionally trained as a writer but I have tried my best to teach myself and make the chapters as clean as possible. I believe I have reached a point where my limited skills cannot improve the work or make any more corrections. It is very difficult to show this work, but if I do not, I fear I will never improve and learn. So here it is. To anyone who lends the time to read all of this and any of my chapters. Thank you.
