The Lost Love

20. Home II

She knew nothing about time travel, however, she deeply knew that her actions were going to have huge consequences. Awful things happen to people who've meddled with time. Juliette again just wondered, what if? Her chest was rising heavily with every breath she took, and with every breath she took, her lungs felt like if it was being hugged by fire.

"I want to go home." she whispered to herself.

Closing her eyes and hope for the best. Just like she would do when she took an exam. She saw the resemblance of the situation and the feelings, she cursed under her breath.

Painful thoughts and a painful headache took over her. Pressure and a drown-like feeling were too much for her to bear. Soon, a warm liquid did start to come out of her. A crimson river took place on her pale face. The metallic taste appeared right after.

"And I want to go to the moon. But that is not happening love. Time to accept that."

Juliette stood next to the boy who had kidnapped her from her world and changed her life. The boy walked next to her and said nothing, but the grin on his face made her feel nervous. She was waiting for him to say something, anything, she was dying to know what was going through the immortal boy's mind. As her hands hanged on her side, she stopped her walk and turned to the handsome devil called Peter Pan.

"I messed up bad, didn't I?" she started.

He stopped as well and chuckled.

"That is a nice way to put it," the boy said and paced around Juliette. "You might have survived the Dark Forest, yet you can't walk away from a dangerous man." He stopped again and reached for her arm.

All the talk, all the stories, and all the cunning skills that this boy had could not stop surprising her. His green eyes seemed to be greener than ever, not even the forest could compare to the intensity of his eyes. Juliette wondered how many things, places, and people had those eyes met. She wished she hadn't being so rude to him, but that didn't matter, he was the real villain in the story.

"I am considering sending you away. You've caused nothing but problems to me. And dear, what a beautiful problem you are," he said with a voice softer than a feather. "There are days when I want to protect you, kill you, love you, hate you, adore you, and destroy you." Juliette now wondered if going away meant dying.

"Send me away if you want. What do you want me to learn?!" Juliette wanted to yell.

Peter Pan chuckled.

"I heard that Mistheaven is lovely this time of the year."
