POV: Isaac
It's around midnight.
Peter and I land down in my bedroom.
I immediately start to search for Theo.
I run through my house while Peter leans against my bedroom wall.
I suddenly hear a voice say
"He was right, you really are hot"
I hear Peter laugh and say "really? Did he say that about me?"
I run back to Peter and see Theo standing next to him. I run up to Theo and hug him.
My eyes start to tear up and I yell at him
"Why Theo?! Why?! Why didn't you tell me you were dying?!"
"I didn't wanna worry you. There is nothing to do about it anyway."
"Oh. You have given up already.."
"If you knew everything than you would understand"
"How could I know anything Theo?! I don't know anything because you aren't telling me anything!"
"Look, the doctors don't know what it is exactly. But it's kinda like a virus spreading through my body. If I'm lucky I have 3 days. If not. Dead can happen any second now."
I'm so mad at Theo. I don't understand why he didn't tell me anything. I thought we shared everything? No. I'm not gonna be mad in what can be his last days alive.
I give Theo a friendly soft punch and say with a sad smile "I'm gonna make your last moments your best moments".
Theo looks at me speechless but ends up nodding at me and hugging me tightly.
Peter stands up the window ready to fly away because he feels quite uncomfortable by invading such a personal situation.
But Theo grabs his wrists and says with his big puppy eyes "no I want you to stay"
Nobody can resist Theo his puppy eyes.
Neither can Peter.
He climbs back off the window and smiles.
"Alright, than I'll stay"
Theo grabs both our hands and make us sit on the floor. Even tho everything that just happened could have ended up with Theo and me just talking about the sad reality.
Theo refuses to give in to sadness and wants to spend all the moments he still has by acting like there is gonna be a tomorrow. And a day after that. Like nothing is gonna change.
The rest of the night we just end up laughing about old memories and Theo wanting to hear every detail about Neverland and about Peter.
He pushes so far into details it even starts to make Peter uncomfortable. But he doesn't show it.
He knows how important this night is. We don't want anything to ruin these last moments.
Theo is admiring Peter his clothes.
"Wow. Is that leather?"
Peter mostly laughs about everything what Theo says.
I than break their conversation.
I turn to Theo and say "when the morning comes, we are gonna go do everything you want. Everything you still have on your bucket list."
Theo starts smiling and his eyes start to sparkle.
"Does this mean.. THAT WE ARE GOING TO THE EIFFEL TOWER?!"
He always wanted to see the Eiffel Tower but we don't exactly have the money to travel.
"Theo" I say "you know we can't afford that"
Peter raises his eyebrows and says "well, I can just fly you two there?"
Theo suddenly gets a boost of enthusiasm and says "that would be so fun!!"
I laugh "sounds like we are going to the Eiffel Tower"
Theo grabs us both while leaning in for a group hug. Me and Peter go along with it.
All what matters right now is Theo his happiness.
