Peter's POV
I entered the woods to see what was the cause of that scream. As I was walking I saw some of the knights searching for the girl as well. They were very furious because she seemed to have escaped. They all ran to the opposite direction of where I was, so I proceeded on my search.
I was getting tired of walking and not being able to find anything, things would usually just come to me. I can't give up on my search, beside Peter Pan never fails.
I kept on walking when I began to hear something, it sounded like someone struggling, like they were stuck in something and was fighting to be free. This sound came from up in the trees, but when I looked up I saw a gigantic net trap in the tree. The net was dangling from side to side, I realized that someone was caught inside the net and was trying to escape.
I began to chuckle a little, how could someone get caught in a trap, it's so easy to spot one.
"Well well, let's have a look at the catch of the day."
A girl answered back in an annoyed tone, "Ha ha very funny. Can you get me down from here?"
"Oh I don't know, I'm not feeling in the mood to help, but today's your lucky day."
I grabbed the knife that I had and cut the rope that was holding the net up. The net fell from the ground causing a loud thud.
"Ouch, You could have boughten it down gently."
"Well your lucky that I even got you out of that thing."
The girl quickly got out of the net and gave me a sarcastic apology, " oh sorry where are my manners, thank you for saving me."
I smiled a bit and she did too. We stood there in an awkward silence staring at each other until I broke that silence. "I'm Peter, Peter Pan. And you are."
"I'm Itzel."
She put her hand in front of me to shake it and when our hands touched it felt, strange somehow. I couldn't describe the feeling, but it was like I didn't want to let go. I wanted to keep on holding her soft delicate hand in mine.
When I looked up to see her face, her cheeks were bright red. She gave me a sweet smile and gently let go of my hand. She stared at me for a while and then said, "Sorry I was lost in thought. Well I should go, who knows where those Knights are."
She then began to walk away, but paused and turned around, "Will I ever see you again?"
I smiled and said, "Don't worry I'll find you, I'll always find you."
She smiled and ran off deep into the woods. I stood there for a while processing what had just occurred. I will never forget how she looked at me with her big brown eyes and her long brown hair revealing enough of her face to see her detailed features. She gave me a look of gratitude and kindness. No one has ever given me thank look before. I will never forget this girl, and I will stop at nothing to find her.
Itzel's POV
I didn't want to let go of his hand, I had never felt like this for any one, ever. It's so strange to feel this way for someone. And I just met him, but it felt as if I've already known him for a long time.
I really didn't want to leave, but the Knights were after me and I can't risk getting caught.
When I looked into his eyes I didn't just see its gorgeous green color, but I saw a kind and good hearted person who will always be there for you. I will never forget this boy. I will always remember Peter Pan.
I hope you guys liked my short story. Sorry that it's taking me a while to update, but please comment and ask me for more. Thanks
