Dear Diary,

There is no doubt in my mind that I love Aria. I love her with my mind, my body, my heart, my soul. I love her with ever fiber in my being, and that is why it is so hard for me to write this.

If time was existent, it would have been many many years since we defeated the clocks. In that time, we have went through so much together. We found a new cave near skull rock. We go there occasionally to escape. We created our own oasis, well tree house, in the direct center of the island. Sadly it was over run by bushes of dream shade, but we still visit on occasion to see our creation. It seems now she knows more of the island than I do.

Her smile has never been more exuberant. Her eyes glow like the Never seas. Her voice is the most soothing sound I have ever heard. I could fall asleep to her voice. I actually have quite a few times.

One time, the island was given a nasty plague. Almost everyone got it. It took two of my boys. I was infected with the disgusting disease and was unable to get out of bed. I lied in bed all day with Aria. Anytime I began to feel awful or get the jitters, Aria would sing to me. I never realized what amazing voice she had. I never recognized the songs she uttered, but they became my favorites.

Recounting these lovely tales has brought tears to my eyes.

Aria is dying.

I thought we have defeated everything, and nothing could stop us, but we've tried everything. Not even the water of Neverland could save her. Her heart is stopping, and so is mine.

She stills smiles on her death bed, and even tries to sing, but her time is almost gone. I would say her heart will stop within the next few days. She will take her last breath. Her smile will vanish. Her eyes will not open and gleam. She will forever be in a state of darkness.

Her singing will no longer soothe me to sleep. Her laugh will no longer warm my heart. I will no longer be able to look to her for comfort. I will lose the only light in my life.

I've prayed. And I've prayed to any God out there. Any God that would listen. I've gotten no help. I need help so desperately, but there is no one there to help me.

One thing I did find out, but can be very risky, is the heart of the truest believer. Supposedly it can save not only the entire island, but also you. It will bring back my one and only love.

My tears have fallen and I have become weak. Aria has made me weak, but I accept it because she is my true love.

So I write this letter to say; Aria, you are my only love. You are my only love. I can and will never find a love as gracious, adventurous, caring, and beautiful as you.

I will never find someone with such beauty resting in their eyes as you. I will never find someone with such a captivating smile as you. And no ones smile will make me so happy. I will never find a girl with the elegance you carry in your voice.

You are my best friend in all of the worlds (don't tell Alex). You know who I truly am and there is nothing you do not know about me. Well, maybe one thing.

I have a son. I abandoned him for Neverland. Sadly, you will never be able to meet him, but that is a good thing. A visit from him would be catastrophic.

Aria, no will ever compare to you. No one.

I will not stop until I find a way to cure you. I will not stop until you're with me again, or I'm dead. This island works in mysterious ways, so I know there is a way to bring you back.

I love you so much Aria Gabrielle Jameson.

I leave this letter with one last note.

No matter what happens, I always will fight for the love Aria gave me. No matter what we went through, no matter the fights that occurred or the pain we encountered, I will fight. Because if I didn't, if I never took that first move with that first kiss. If I never caught her when the very first bell occurred. If I never stopped her from taking her life on the cliff of eternity. If I never risked my own life to save hers when she fell off the waterfall. If I never went out and searched for her myself that very first day.

I would always wonder.

- Yours Truly,
Peter Pan.
