Neverland

Chapter Six

Carina, my sister, is there. She keeps her head up and says to Pan: "Peter Pan! I am your granddaughter and Orion's sister. Do not harm me!"

I run towards the circle and break through it. My friends are all there. Short, brunette and brown-eyed Callisto looks at me and says, "Orion, I was so worried about you!"

I hug her tightly. Then I hear a voice behind me question, "Orion, how do you know these girls?" I sigh and turn around. Felix stands there. His blonde hair falls perfectly. I hear my annoying blue-eyed, dirty blonde sister sigh with exasperation. I take a single step back and step on her toes. She inhales sharply and then sighs again. I want to elbow her, but that would be too obvious.

Then I hear Carina gasp again. Sweet ginger haired Elara quietly snickers and her amber orbs dart around excitedly. I roll my blue eyes and somehow take them off Felix long enough to see what my sister gasped at, the boy standing next to Pan.

I want to roll on the ground laughing, but I turn back to Felix.  He's still looking at me. I say, "Look, Lost Boy, these are my friends and sister. Okay?"

Callisto laughs. "Yeah, we really don't want to LOSE Orion. Haha, get it?"

"Shut up. Now is not the time for stupid humor, Callisto," I snap at her.

Felix has a small smirk on his face as he walks away. Carina elbows me and says, "Who is that boy?"

"Felix."

"The one you just talked to?"

"Yes."

"Why didn't you just fall on the ground and confess your undying love for him?"  Doe-eyed and dark haired Haley smiles.

"Because that's stupid," I say, rolling my eyes.

Carina laughs. "You just admitted you love him!"

"Shut your mouth, Carina!" I whisper-yell playfully.
