Run Away With Me (Peter Pan fanfic - OUAT)

Goodbye Wendy - Chapter 12

'This house no longer feels like home...
Oh, when you told me you'd leave, I felt like I couldn't breathe'
So cold - Ben cocks

Still Peter Pan's POV

"What did you call me here for" I spit out impatiently whilst waiting on the outskirts of Dark Hollow, waiting for him to reveal himself from the shadows.
"We have a problem" he says, his cold voice sending a shiver down my spine.
"Which is what exactly?" I snap, clearly showing I was aggravated. An ache pounded in my heart whenever distant from Wendy, it was like she-
"Wendy." My heart stopped for a second as shock took over my body. After the shock dissolved I asked "What?" In a loud and confused voice.
"You're falling for her"
"That's ridiculous, I mean she's not even a proper lost girl and she doesn't listen to anything I say"
"Then why do you listen to her, why do you help her, why do you care for her?" All these questions took over my mind and it got me searching for an answer for all these questions but my heart sank knowing there was no answer.
"You're wrong, I am most certainly not developing any feelings for her, you of all people know I don't feel" my mouth formed the word feel with such distaste as I denied the accusation.
"Like you said, I know you better than everyone and you like her. I am you and you expect me to turn a blind eye on what's happening, on what you're feeling." my mouth is as dry as sandpaper and cardboard as I try comprehending his words when I already know the truth no matter how much I deny it.
"Your heart and Neverland is already getting weaker, we don't have any more space for love, don't let some petty feelings interfere with our plan. Don't be so selfish and lose me for someone who is not worth it" no matter how much pain it caused me, I kept my head down, closing my eyes tightly.
"Fine" I say clenching my jaw and fists and my shadow leaves but not before giving me a curt nod. The first and last tear slip from my right eye as I whisper to the wind and suddenly open my darkening eyes to say this: "Goodbye Wendy" as if I was hoping the breeze would deliver my message to her so she won't be too hurt by my upcoming actions.

Back to Wendy's POV
Still sitting in my crouched position against the door, I felt the familiar cold and loneliness envelop my body into a hug but it was nowhere near as heartfelt as Peter Pan's hug. The only thing that lifted my head from my knees was a faint voice that sounded like it said "Goodbye Wendy" but looking around me, I noticed nobody was there for the voice to belong to. It was probably Neverland getting to me and I sighed as I recalled all the memories made here although I hadn't even stayed a month. Actually, I don't know how long I stayed here as time didn't exist in Neverland. There was only night and day, no seasons, no years, nothing which made me wonder how much of a difference in time there was between Neverland and Earth.

Look at you, all heartbroken since your boyfriend left in the middle of your 'moment'.

What? No! First of all he isn't my boyfriend and his position demands a lot of time so no I'm not heartbroken, I'm understanding.

Who are you trying to convince, me or me?

That didn't make sense.

You are me. I am you though I can't say that's a good thing so far.

Okay that is offensive and what do you mean?

You have no idea how much Neverland has changed you. Only a change of environment and you've abondoned your priorities. The girl that swore to never love because love was too complicated and heartbreaking with our parents as role models of this belief. But the second you're here, you lay out yourself on a silver platter at Pan's feet.

You know what? You're right about everything except the part that I deserve a platinum platter but Pan needs to show that he deserves me.

And we're back and better than ever

I know this chapter is short and I apologise for that but I felt like I should have ended it there. I have enjoyed my book so far as much as I have because my brain is overflowing with ideas when it should have knowledge for exams but whatever.
