Annie let go of the tent flap, and left the tent. It still raining, which explained alot. Peter's emotions control the weather on Neverland, it rains when he cries. It's sunny when he's happy, which Annie has noticed time and time again. Annie walked to Grayson's tent, and went inside. He was laying in his bed, covered in blankets.
"Grayson, are you alright?" Annie asked. She heard Grayson sniffle, and he rolled over. Grayson sat up, causing many blankets to fall off of him.
"Yes, I'm fine." He mumbled, but he so obviously wasn't. Grayson's eyes were red, and puffy. He had dark circles under them, and his cheeks were stained with dried tears.
"I guess crying runs in your family?" Annie asked, trying to lighten the mood. Grayson smiled slightly, before patting his bed, and shifting over. Annie walked over, and sat down on the edge. She put on hand on Grayson's shoulder as she looked at him, and studied his face.
"What?" Grayson asked, noticing how long she'd been staring.
"Nothing, you just look so much like him..." Annie mumbled, before trailing off.
"Yeah, you must think I'm a really idiot for not recognizing my own twin brother."
Annie shook her head. "I don't."
Grayson looked back up at her. "You don't?" He asked. Annie shook her head again. Her hand moved up to his cheek, where she ran her thumb underneath his eye. Grayson scooted higher up on his bed, as Annie moved closer. They both sat there in silence for a few seconds, Annie's eyes shifting all over his face.
Grayson cleared his throat. "I-I'm sorry about Wendy." He managed to say.
"Yeah, me too." Annie mumbled in response. It was almost like she was in a trance as she stared at Grayson.
"Annie, are you alright?" Grayson asked.
"Yeah." She replied, slowly nodding her head. Grayson leaned in closer to Annie, and she watched as his eyes darted down to her lips. He kept moving closer, and put one of his hands on Annie's knee.
Annie realized what was happening, and quickly stood up. "I'm sorry." She said before scurrying out of the tent. Grayson sat on his bed in pure confusion, trying to process everything that just happened.
