We finally finish one day of walking and begin to set up camp. "You two sleep" Pan instructs

"Why would I sleep knowing you can kill me and take Henry as soon as my eyes closed

Pan pretends to be shocked "I would never do that"

"I know all your tricks Pan, we stay awake together and Henry sleeps"

"As long as I can sleep, I'm ok" Henry lays down on the ground and slowly falls asleep. I sit next to Henry as Pan paces back and forth. I focus on the palm of my hand /come on, come on!/

"What are you doing?" Pan asks, standing in front of me

"Trying to see if this still works, now leave me alone" in a matter of seconds a rose appears in my hand.

"When did you get magic?!?"

"It's not my magic, I'm seeing if you can still make things appear. You should know that. But then again you were always clueless"

"No! I was not clueless" Pan crosses his arms

"So your still clueless?" I laugh

"No! I was and will never be clueless!" Pan explodes

"Gosh! I was just joking around, calm down hot head" I raise my hands in surrender

"So your saying I'm hot?" He smirks

"I've seen better, I've seen worse" I lean back and trace my canai tattoos. Absent mindedly. "Pan?" I ask, he looks up from the ground "how long have you been this way? Like do you ever go back?"

"Been what way? Powerful? Since right before you left with hook"

"Just to clarify I was taken and the real world isn't all it's cracked up to be" I look around "sure there's no dream shade or pirates but the air isn't clean, you can't see the stars, everyone thinks that you're just a fairy tale character in a book. It's lonely there.." I sigh and stand up

"That sounds like a place for cheaters" I nod

"But there, cheaters almost always win"

"Almost? That's insane, cheaters should never win"

I shrug "that's the world Pan, the one you drive me to live in"

"What do you mean? I was always Pan and you loved me"

"No Pan broke my heart and drove me away, I loved Peter" I sit down next to Henry who seems to be having a bad dream, he jolts awake "Henry are you ok?" I ask

"No I had a bad dream, can you sing to me? I know it sounds childish but it helps me calm down and fall back asleep"

"Sure, what do you want me to sing?" I ask

"Anything" so I sing the first song that comes to mind

"Monday you sent me flowers
Tuesday made me feel stupid
Wednesday the world was ours
Thursday you didn't prove it
Friday fell back in love
Saturday we didn't talk
Sunday you said you needed space

Do you miss me? Am I crazy?
Am I losing hold of your love baby?
Either you want me or you don't
I need to know, I need to know

Who are you today?
Will you be the sun
Or the pouring rain?
Who are you tomorrow?
Will you make me smile
Or just bring me sorrow?
Who are you gonna be
When I'm lost and I'm scared?
Who are you gonna be
When there's nobody there?
Who are you today?
'Cause I am still the same

Monday you had my heart
Tuesday you had me screaming
Wednesday we didn't part
Thursday you didn't mean it
Friday I shook it off
Saturday you got it wrong
Sunday I said I needed space

Do you miss me? Am I crazy?
Am I losing hold of your love baby?
Either you want me or you don't
I need to know, I need to know

Who are you today?
Will you be the sun
Or the pouring rain?
Who are you tomorrow?
Will you make me smile
Or just bring me sorrow?
Who are you gonna be
When I'm lost and I'm scared?
Who are you gonna be
When there's nobody there?
Who are you today?
'Cause I am still the same

Who are you? Who are you?

It's so strange how the same thing
Can make you feel so right
And bring you so much pain.
It's so strange how the same face
Can make you love until it hurts.
Where do we go?
I need to know

Who are you today?
Will you be the sun
Or the pouring rain?
Who are you tomorrow?
Will you make me smile
Or just bring me sorrow?
Who are you gonna be
When I'm lost and I'm scared?
Who are you gonna be
When there's nobody there?
Who are you today?
'Cause I am still the same
The same"

I stroke Henry's hair as he drifts back off to sleep with a smile "you should pay attention to the lyrics Pan, great meaning" I say. Without even looking up I can tell Pan is pondering the words when a small 'wow' exits his mouth.
