Melody p.o.v.

My heart jumped. I reached for my dagger I had tucked away in my right boot, but stopped myself after I saw who it was. My dad wore a long cape like jacket, and his finest white shirt and boots. " ha, you frightened me papa!" I said while laughing. Papa walked over to me with happiness in his eyes. I hugged him tightly until: "Aww, what about me, don't I get a hug?" We all looked at the crows nest where a boy said with a fake hurt face which could only belong to..." Peter Pan." I growled annoyed. As he floated down to the wheel, his gaze never leaving mine. " What are you doing here?"

 I asked my jaw clenched. " Can't I come and see my favorite pirate?" he said rubbing his finger on my chin. I quickly moved back, pulled out my knife, and held it to his neck. He didn't look fazed which made me even angrier and pressed harder. " Why are you here?" I said gritting my teeth. 

" I'm here to make a deal. I know you have a magic bean. And since that's against the rules, I'm going to need to make sure that that doesn't ruin the fun. So why don't you just hand over the bean." he said extending his hand. I lowered my silver knife, but still on edge. The brown haired boy swaggered over to my father, his hand still out stretched.

"Well? He asks with a sly smirk. I would never admit it to myself but that smirk quite cute.

My father looked at pan with a blank face, he moved his hand to a pouch on his belt and clenched it tight.

"No." He said bravely, but bravery can only go so far.

"What did you say to me?" Pan asked in an angered tone but I could tell he was still trying to keep his cool. His vision flicked to me for a split second then back to my father."You heard I said no." Dad said in a calm cool voice.

Pan lunged forward as if trying to strangle him, but fell short. With his arm outstretched, and hand clenched into a fist. Taking deep breaths he stayed in this position, with his face facing the floorboards of the freshly swabbed deck his eyes shut tight.

I have never seen him act this way before it looked as if he were really holding back and not wanting to make a fool if himself.

"Your making a big mistake. But I'm not leaving empty handed." As he was speaking he was slowly turning in my direction. Now he was facing me fully. Rage burning in his eyes he stared into my sea blue eyes with forest green ones.

"Why don't I just take something else?" He said in a much calmer tone. Because I was standing next to him he was in range of touching me. He lifted his hand to my chin.

With a disgusted look I swatted his hand away and took a few steps back as I heard the sound of a gun cocking.

Dad had a gun pointed directly at pans head. "Don't you dare touch her." "Lets make a deal. I keep this fine young lady in exchange I'll let you keep the bean and leave, or you can give me the bean and keep her and stay forever!" He said in an over excited voice with his hands raised in the air like a child who had won something and smiling like an idiot. I couldn't help but chuckle.

I couldn't tell for sure but I swear I saw a hint of pink in his cheeks when he lowered his arms.

It took my father a minute to respond, and when he did what he said shocked me and the whole crew. "Take her....." He stated while he looked at the ground and walked to his quarters.

Everyone gasped, even pan as we all watched him retreat into his quarters. He soon returned with a small box in his hand. "Can I say goodbye?" Pan grunted but reluctantly nodded and walked to the edge of the ship and leaned on the railing.

My fathers silver hook grasped my wrist which signaled my hand to move with it. He put my hand on the small box."Open it when you get to shore." He let go of my hand leaving the small box with me. After that he quickly walked back to his cabin with easily seen tears streaming down his face.

Next was smee. He quickly wobbled over to me, tripping once but made it to me with a larger green box. I smiled slightly.

He tightly embraced me, after a few seconds I returned the hug wafting in the smell of sea salt and a hint of rum. Soon after he let go.

"um, that's from the whole crew." He pointed the package he gave me. I looked back at smee he was bawling like a baby. Sympathy engulfed my features. I patted his head."It's okay smee. I will miss ya." I smiled.

Looking at the rest of the crew I saw they all also had sad faces.

"Okay you said goodbye lets go!" Pan said with an annoyed voice. He grabbed my shoulder, green engulfed my vision for a moment but when it cleared i was on the beach starring at the Jolly Roger in the distance.

A single tear trickled down my cheek. I was pulled from my thoughts when I felt something touch my hair. Swerving around I found pan with his hand raised and a sinks lock of my tangled mess of hair. He looked into my eyes with a shocked and embarrassed look on his face, which was soon replaced with slight pink in his cheeks and a toothy grin. His hands lowered down to my waist pulling me close he whispered to me.

"Don't cry sweetheart.... Your home."
