Leyla's POV

I woke up on Devin's bed and as per usual, I see him on the floor. "Morning, Ley." He yawned.

"Ley?" I chuckled and raised an eyebrow.

"I don't know," He dragged while he light scratches his cheek.

I laughed at his reaction and got out of bed to get ready for the day. We got ready and the rest of the boys were out. I sat at a log and watched the boys dance and sing. I noticed that my mum would come exceptionally late. I stood up and looked around simply just bored.

My mum started singing with the boys and looked at me. I soon realized the song was our favorite duet. My mum sang while she just eyed me cheekily. I smiled at her actions and gave in to sing with her.

Peter's POV

I looked at Leyla and Scarlett singing and dancing with smiles. I think about the songs Scarlett would sing to calm Leyla. I continued playing my pipe when I saw Scarlett call for me. "Hello Love." I said as I walked towards her.

"Kitty, you need to get to know my daughter." She said with a smile.

She wanted Leyla to know me. Hopefully it will go well. All she knows is that I have a daughter who left with her mother because of a curse. I nodded and Leyla walked towards me and said, "I honestly thought you were a dream." 

"Well hearing someone saying their Peter Pan is quite difficult to believe. You are very much like your mother. She was very curious and your singing is almost as angelic as hers." I said with a chuckle.

"Almost? Sir have you heard my voice?" She said and laughed.

We continued talking until it was time to for bed.

I said goodnight to Leyla and she went to Devin's hut.

Devin's POV

As I watch she dance and sing, I wondered if I actually had a chance with her. I knew I would have to ask Pan and Scarlett but it's worth a try. 

I went to Felix for advice.

"You and Leyla? I mean you guys have been really close... Let me see if she really likes you. I promise it'll go fine. If Scarlett has anything to say about it."

"What do you mean?"

"Well we are like Scarlett's brother if not her son. But if Scarlett has seen you and Leyla lately she'll say yes."

"I really hope so Fill." I said and went back to my hut.

I woke up at the same time as usual and did my normal routine and went to Pan's treehouse and knocked on their door. "Come in!" I heard Scarlett's voice call. I walked in feeling nervous but confident. I've know for as long as I can remember but I'm asking to date their daughter whose life is at risk and she doesn't even know that.

"Hey Dev! What's up?" Scarlett asked with a yawn.

I cleared my throat before saying, "IreallywanttotakeLeylaonadateandIneedyourpermissionandIhavenoideahowtoaskandIamfeelinghellanervous."

"What?" Pan turned from the stove upon hearing my words. Scarlett walked over to me and placed her hand on my shoulder.

"Take a deep breath soldier." Scarlett said as she rubs my shoulder. I did and her calming word told me to and repeated, "I really want to take Leyla on a date and I need your permission. I really like her and I promise to take care of her."

"Wow." Scarlett said with her eyebrows raised. 

"I'm okay with that. Scar?" Pan said as he placed his and Scarlett's breakfast on their table.

"Wow Dev. Listen, I trust you I really do but the thought of you and Leyla won't last if I can't find the cure for this curse. I don't want either of you to get hurt by this." I understood her. Scarlett always wanted the best for the both of us. I nodded and walked away slowly with my head facing the wooden floor of the treehouse.

"Go." Scarlett spoke.

"What?"

"Go get her! She'll want you to date her or at least try. I know we'll find a cure."

I nodded and ran out the door to talk to Leyla.

Scarlett's POV

"Why'd you let him?" Peter voiced out. I turned to him with a calm smile.

"Because I know Devin will take care of Leyla and I know that we will find the curse. Not to mention that they have been pretty happy with each other."

Peter walked over to me and gave me a peck on the lips before we walked to the table to our breakfast. It was a quick breakfast and we went to watch secretly how Devin would ask our daughter out.

We followed them to a cliff not far from a cliff I have so much memories of. Devin brought her to look at the sea and he turned to her.

"Leyla. These past few days we've been hanging out and I was wondering... would you wanna be my girlfriend?" 

"Wait- girlfriend? Did we agree to this?" Peter whispered in my ear.

"Yes Kitty, we did." I giggled softly.

I heard Leyla squealed a 'yes' and they kiss that is our cue to leave. Peter teleported us out of the area and to the cliff near by.

"Oh this place?" I teased.

"Of course!" Peter laughed before pressing his lips to mine. He pulled and breathed out, "I missed my wife you know." I smiled and kissed him again. We went back to the camp and had a normal day but with Devin stealing Peter's move by occasionally pulling Leyla for kisses. I noticed my daughter happier than before and felt proud that she felt comfortable to tell me.
