It was 3:00 AM when the alarm went off. I rolled over to my right to see Dan and Mary snuggling. They were fast asleep, the alarm hadn't bothered them at all, so I turned it off and took in a beep breath before I started yelling

"DAN AND MARY SITTING IN A TREE!!!! F! U! C! K! I! N! G!"

Then in an instant Mary rolled over to look at me with her wide, dead, almost bloodshot eyes. It was terrifying. The horror in her face slowly turned into rage as she yelled back "YOU FUCKING CHILD!!!!!!". Her voice was twice as loud as mine and scared the shit out of Danny, who fell off the bed in terror.

It had been about 10 minutes after I woke the two lovers up. Mary was barley standing and Dan already had everything all ready to go.

"Maaaarrryyyy let's go!!!!!" I told her, we had less then twenty minutes to get her things packed and ready to head out.

"Okay so I'll carry your bag and your sweety pie will help you fly. You've only done it once so I figured you'd want some help." I said. Then her eyes bulged out of her head, but they were looking right at me, as if she were staring deep into my soul. She she said in the most ungodly voice I'd ever herd "He's not my sweety pie." Then grabbed her things and shoved it into her bag. She threw it at me and said with a smile "Have fun!". It hit me like a bus. It was the heaviest bag I'd ever held, but it was doable. I had no idea what she had in there but I wasn't going to ask any questions, she was NOT HAPPY in the morning.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We all went down to check out. Peter sent Danny and I outside and told us to wait for him. As we were leaving, Peter shot a wink at me and gave me a thumbs up. Danny hadn't seen anything so I made a motion as if I were smacking his ass back at him. Pete's eyes widened and he practically choked trying not to laugh.

"What was that?" Danny asked.

"Mosquito." I said back with a nervous chuckle.

We made it outside and found a bench to sit on while we were waiting... and waiting and waiting and waiting but he was talking forever. I looked up at Dan, who was just staring out into the distance at the lights. It was freezing out so I scooted a bit closer to him. I noticed he had a red mark on his forehead, and his cheeks had turned a bit red too.

"What happened to your head?" I asked. It went diagonally across his forehead and had a little flick like a check mark at the end. He looked at me confused for a moment, then said "Oh, thats my birthmark. Its weird... It only shows up if I've been doing something active, if I've been crying or if I'm blushing."

"That is weird, but it suits you. It looks good." I said, a small smile on my face.

"It used to be worse. And I had it on my upper lip too when I was a baby, but that kind of faded away." He said and laughed a little. Right at that moment Peter opened the door and said "FINNISH MAKING OUT I'M HERE!" and walked out as if he were a model on a runway. Danny and I looked at each other and laughed a bit. We started walking, then it occurred to me I had no idea where we were going.

"Sooo Peter, I know we're flying to Neverland but... like... where are we going?" I asked.

He smiled "We're going to find a long road, like a runway."

"Okay." I said. Everything was silent. "Any road in mind?" I asked, looking up at him.

He nodded but didn't say anything else besides "Don't worry, we aren't far."

We were walking for a few minutes be for he started laughing and said "So.. Mary... I have a question."

Dan stopped and said "Oh no." But I just looked up and asked what it was.

"How does Danny's tongue taste?" He asked. He couldn't laugh for long before I elbowed him in the stomach and said "Dick." But the second he caught his breath he started laughing again, and Danny and I joined.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We'd been walking for about twenty minutes, talking, laughing, teasing before we turned a corner and Peter said "We're here!". We had reached a long road that seemed very empty and very eerie. "Why this road?" I asked.

"Call me a psycho. I love how creepy it is at night. Plus, no one is ever around." He said.

Everything was quiet, no one said anything. Then all of a sudden Peter and grabbed my hand and started running. He laughed and Danny followed. He caught up to us and grabbed my other hand. Then Peter looked down at me and smiled, looked at Danny and yelled

"OFF TO NEVERLAND!!!!!!"
