healed souls

✨the camp✨

i stare at his hand before finally taking it,feeling sparks as i do so as he helps me up,i quickly look around and relax slightly when i see henry sitting on a log,looking all gloomy and sad,i frown and walk towards him when i felt someone pull me back

"not so fast,we need to catch up" peter says and in the blink of an eye (literally) we ended up in his tent "why were you running from our lost boys?" he asked

'ours...oh god'

i shrug "i was merely playing the game"

we stare at each other for a bit before he speaks "i've missed you"

"i know" i smirk and he rolls his eyes,the only person who can match his cockiness is me

"awe come on bails i know you miss me just as much"

i pretend to think about it "hmmm i don't kno-" i was cut off mid sentence when his lips smashed against mine,i was shocked at first but kissed back,wrapping my arms around his neck as he pulls me closer by my waist,eventually we pull apart for air "maybe just a little" i whisper and he chuckles

"come on,we've got lost boys to greet" he says as we walk out of the tent,i walk straight to henry and sat next to him

"you okay hen?" i ask gently and he nods

"what did pan want to talk to you about?" he asked and i grew nervous

"oh-uh he wanted t-to talk about how...the...sleeping arrangements go since i-i'm the only girl" i mentally curse myself for stuttering,something i always do when i lie,henry looks at me suspiciously for a few seconds before nodding "hey,what did i say about this place?" i ask

he sighs before answering "trust no one,talk to no one" i nod and grab his hand

"henry i get you want to be nice but neverland is not the place,you could literally kill someone and walk away,there are no rules,i just want you to be careful" i explain softly and he nods once again

"i'm sorry" he apologized and i grin

"rule number 1) you never say sorry in neverland" he gives a slight smile.

after a few minutes of talking with henry i go over and talk with felix

"hey scar face" i said as i sat beside him on the ground, he just playfully rolled his eyes,i was pretty confident i was the only one allowed to call him that and walk away with all my limbs still in tact

"sup spit fire" it was my turn to roll my eyes

"how does it feel to be back?" he asked after a few moments of silence

"it feels...it feels refreshing not gonna lie but it also feels weird,i lost this home over 500 years ago and to just be back,i don't know its just strange...does that make sense?"

he shrugs "i suppose,but i know where your coming from, i would feel weird too,not that i'd ever leave this place or want to leave this place" he explains and i nod "i'm glad your back,the island felt empty without you" he nudges me and i frown at that

"i didn't mean to leave...i didn't know-"

"that doesn't matter now,you're back" peter says from behind us,i was going to respond when my stomach grumbled and i now noticed how hungry i was

"hungry love?" peter asked and i nodded "when was the last time you ate?"

i explained to both of them what happened in storybrooke with my dad and rumple and the town line and greg hitting us with his car and how bad the hospital food was,after about 20 minutes of explaining i finished and peter looked shocked/angry and felix let out a low whistle,i finally got food and after that i felt tired,so i told them i was gonna go to sleep,of course peter didn't spare a second and quickly led me to his tent,i got in pajamas he had given me and fell into a comfortable sleep.

[...]

i woke up sometime later and walked out the tent as henry walked over to peter "whats that?" he asked

"dreamshade,its a nasty poison we have a story here about a man who once shot an apple off his sons head with an arrow,lets find out if its possible" peter says

"if you're shooting the apple whats the poison for?" henry asked again

"motivation not to miss" i got a kinda bad feeling about this as i walked up to henry and put a hand on his shoulder

"felix! get over here!" he yells and he walks over towards us

"i-is felix good? i-is his a-aim good?" henry stutters

"doesn't matter you're the one doing the shooting" he hands henry the cross bow

"i-i don't wanna shoot" i didn't want him too either he chuckles before tossing the apple to felix as the lost boys chant 'shoot' over and over again,henry turns to me for help and i gave him a sympathetic smile

"i should have put apple shooting on the list of things to teach you" i whisper to him and walk over to peter "come on peter don't make him do this" i plead

"what happened to your neverland spirit?" he asked with a raised brow

"he's only a kid"

"technically we all are" i roll my eyes before turning back to henry and mouthing 'sorry' he slumps his shoulders in defeat and aims the cross bow "

"you wont hit him,trust yourself,go on its exhilarating!" peter says and i grip his hand,feeling him squeeze back,henry aimed the bow at felix but turned to peter at the last second,and pulled the trigger,peter caught the arrow not even an inch away from his chest and smirked

"told you it was exhilarating come on,i have something to show you" peter walked off with henry and i had a mission to do.
