ouat Heart of a Pirate

Ch. 12

                                                 Mira POV 

When I wake up this time I feel different, I feel better much better. I peel the covers off of me I look around and don't see any signs of Peter. 

I climb out of the tree house. I smirk I climb up a tree, Clearly doing much better I am no longer in pain. I'm no longer seeing things that will haunt me for a while. Seeing my father's death on constant replay was a fate worse than death. 

I see Felix walking towards the river clearly to get some fresh water. I smirk following him from the branches of trees. Keeping my movements light and fast.

He turns around looking in every direction not seeing anyone. He just shrugs bending down to fill is canteen with water. 

I jump out of the tree taking him down with me. I straddle him my sword to his throat. 

"You loose mate." I say with a smirk

He chuckled 

"I can see you're feeling better." He says 

I stand up offering my hand to him. 

"Yes, fresh as a daisy." I say 

He chuckles again. 

"Good I was starting to worry." He says 

I gasp. 

"Did the tough Felix just admit he was worried?" I asked 

"Yeah, Yeah, So I give a damn about a pirate." He says rolling his eyes. 

I bump my hip against his. 

"If it make you feel any better I worry about you too in a tough older brother sort of way." I say smirking at him 

"Gee the pirate has a heart." He snicker 

"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah news to me as well." I said as we both chuckle 

"By the way umm I never said thank you.." He says turning the conversation sounding completely serious

I arch my brow. 

"For what?' I say 

"You saved my life." He says 

"No I didn't I just pushed you out of the way." I say 

"Yeah and if you didn't it would have hit me in the heart." He says 

I never thought about that. 

"So thank you, I owe you one." He says 

"There are many things I look forward to on this island but owing me one for saving your life isn't one of them Felix. I just hope if the tables would have been turned you would do the same for me." I say looking straight ahead as we walk

"For a pirate you sure are a softie." He says 

I just roll my eyes 

"You just wish you were as cool as me." I say in my accent 

And we go right back to our bantering 

We make it back to camp and sit on a log. 

"But in all seriousness what the hell were you seeing during those hallucinations?' He asked 

"My worse nightmare brought to life." I mumbled looking into the fire. 

Not just the crocodile but the crocodile killing Papa. and I was powerless to stop it. I close my eyes taking a deep breath when I open my eyes I see Peter standing right in front of me. 

"Glad to see you're back to your old self love." He says 

" You have no idea." I say with a smirk. 

"Come with me we need to talk." He says extending his hand I take it.

He helps me to my feet and we walk out of the camp. The odd thing is neither of us has let go of the others hand. What the bloody hell is that about?
