•Chapter 22•

The next day, Henry walked into Granny's diner. He spotted Y/n and Killian sitting in a booth together. They were chatting and laughing together. Henry randomly walked over to them, disturbing their family time together. Y/n jumped slightly at the boy suddenly sitting next to them. She looked at Henry. "Good morning to you too," Y/n said. She looked back at Killian as she rolled her eyes. The boy put his storybook on the table in front of him. Killian chuckled awkwardly. "Boy, where are your mothers? Your father?" Killian asked him. Henry shrugged and opened his book. "I don't know. My dad's probably still sleeping, and my moms are doing some important stuff." He answered. His eyes were focused on the pages of the book. Y/n and Killian exchanged looks. Y/n cleared her throat and turned to the boy next to her. "Henry, what are you doing here?" Y/n asked him sweetly. The young boy looked up at her. "What do you mean?" He asked her. Y/n turned back to the pirate sitting across from her. His eyes went back to the young boy. Y/n turned back to him. "Henry, we are kind of in the middle of something." She tried to explain to the boy. Henry pulled Y/n's plate closer to him. He took some scrambled eggs off her plate. "There are some things we still need to discuss for operation cinnamon," Henry tells her. Y/n let out a nervous chuckle. "Henry, can we discuss that later? I'm kind of having a moment with my dad here." Y/n tries to tell him. Henry did not get the message. "We've got so much to talk about. We have to plan all the details." Henry tells her.  Y/n sighed and patted his shoulder. "I'll meet you at the library after I had my breakfast, alright?" Y/n suggested. Henry picked up his book and left. Y/n turned back to the pirate. "That took him long enough." She joked. Killian chuckled at her. "You're very gentle with him, love. I bet Regina appreciates that." He tells her. Y/n nodded and pushed her plate back in front of her. "I guess. What choice do I have? I've got a lot to make up for." Y/n tells the pirate. Killian nods and takes a sip of his drink. "I guess I'll let you get to it then." He said. Killian was about to stand up. Y/n holds up her hand, stopping him. "Wow, wow, wow, where are you going?" She asked him. "You and the boy have a lot to discuss. I don't want to get in the way." Killian tells her. Y/n chuckled at him. "I told him I would meet him after breakfast. So, I am finishing these eggs. No matter how long it takes." Y/n jokes. Killian sits back in his seat. "See, that's how I raised you." He smiled proudly. Y/n frowned at him. "You didn't raise me." She reminds him. The pirate shrugs. "You tried to kill me." He reminds her. "Right," Y/n said, 

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Y/n asked the young boy. She sat down next to him on a bench outside. Henry opened his book. "I asked Grace if she wanted to hang out today. We're going to the playground later today. Her dad won't let her out of his sight. They will both be there. I will distract Grace while you go talk to her dad." He explained. Y/n smiled at him. "Henry, I appreciate this. But, I've already figured everything out. Jefferson is going to help me." Y/n tells him. His eyes widened slightly. "What?" He asked her. Y/n smiled at him again. "I've got it all figured out, Henry. I don't need to speak with him anymore. Thanks for helping me." She thanked him. "But-but you can't go now. No, I had this plan. We need to follow the plan." He rambled. Y/n puts her hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, Henry. You've been a great help. But, I don't need your help anymore." She tells him. Henry closed his book again. "Okay." He said. "Thanks for understanding, Henry." She said. Henry turned to her. "Alright, then I'll tell my moms what I saw the other night." Henry threatened. Y/n frowned at him. "What?" Y/n asked him. "I know Pan is still alive. And so is Felix. I saw them. That wasn't an illusion." He tells her. Y/n folded her arms over her chest. "Are you blackmailing me?" She asked the young boy. Henry smiled at her. "Let me help you, and I won't tell them your secret," Henry said. "I'm not falling for that. You're not telling them anything." Y/n replied. "Oh, I will tell them. And when I do, who do you think they'll believe? You or me?" He asked her. Y/n frowned at him. Henry smirked in response. Y/n groaned. "Alright, you're in." She sighed. Henry smiled proudly. "You're pretty sneaky for a little boy, Henry." She said. "It's a superpower." He shrugged.

Later that day, Y/n lied on her bed on the ship. She cuddled closely with her teddy bear. "I'm proud of you, Darling," Pan spoke up from the shadows. He walked up to her. Y/n looked up to him. "Can we cuddle?" Y/n asked him. Pan then appeared behind her. He wrapped his arms around her waist. He smelled her hair. "Are you alright?" He asked her. Y/n nodded slowly as she held her teddy bear tightly in her arms. Pan sat up slightly. He brushed some hair out of her face. "That's not all, is it?" He asked her, "What's wrong? Talk to me." He whispered to her. Y/n looked at her boyfriend. "I just want to go home." She tells him. "We're going home, my love. You're gonna have to hang on for a little while longer." He replies. Y/n sighs. Pan looked at the bear she was holding. "Where did you get that? I thought you left that in Neverland." He said. Y/n looked at the stuffed animal. "Killian got it back for me. To make me feel more at home." She answered. Pan kissed her head. "We'll be home soon, Darling. Everything will be back to normal." He tells her. Y/n smiled at the feeling of Pan being close to her. It was just as if they were back in their tent in Neverland. "Where's Felix?" Y/n asked him. Pan shrugged. "He's somewhere with the Lost Boys, I think. But, don't worry about him." Pan answered. Y/n turned around to face Pan. "I love you, Peter." She whispered. Pan smiled at her. He kissed her nose. "I love you too, lost girl."
