The window opens again and Shaylen and her dad lean out, looking down at where I was just a little bit ago.
"Daddy I swear a boy was right there!" She whines and points to the bush.
"C'mon Shay...This is the 3rd time this week...maybe you need some theripy..."He puts his head back in the window. She does the same but doesn't close the window after her but instead turns off the lights and goes back to bed.
I slowly creep onto her window sill and slide through the opening trying not to squiek the hinges on it. It works, not a squiek. But that's a different story for the floor boards. Everytime I step there's a long creak underneath me. She tosses and turns then settles, scaring me into stillness. I continue to walk steathily towards her bed. I get there and just look at her.
This is my Shaylen. She's mine. She always has and always will. I just need to get her back to Neverland. She's mine forever. Right as I think it her eyes flutter open and go wide, her jaw drops down in awe.
"Shhhhhhhh!!!!" I scold and put my hand over her mouth so she doesn't make any noise.
"MOUHERIYGFBCEHYDBV HEHIKBVIHKR" She shrieks into my hand that I press harder into her face. She finally stops, finally calming down. I take my hand off her mouth and she just stares at me blank faced.
"M-M-Mason?" She stutters as tears fill her eyes.
"Yeah baby it's me." I take her into a hug and she shakes in my arms.
"But-but how? They said they f-found you in the stream..." She says inbetween shaky breaths.
"That wasn't me. See baby..... See...I'm here now.... Shhh. It's okay..... I'm here...."I say as we rock back and forth in my arms as I stroke her hair.
She lays there,not moving except for the forced rocking then she wraps her arms around my back and pulls me toward he in the tightest hug I've ever recieved.
"I missed y-you so much Mason..." She says inbetween breaths of tears that pour down her face.
"I missed you too baby..." I say as I peel her off of me. "Come with me..." I say as I stand up off the bed and hold out a hand for her to take.
"Mason I-I can't!" She shivers.
"Why not?" He heart deflates.
"I have to finsh out high school..." She looks down at the floor.
"Where I'm taking you...I'll teach you all I know. Please. I can't stand to loose you again. Baby please?" I beg her.
"Alright..." She gets off of the bed and grabs her little bear she sleeps with every night. "Take me there Mason." I think she's expecting me to have a car waiting outside.
"My name where I live is Peter..."
"Peter?"
"Peter Pan, babe...Peter Pan..." She turns as white as a ghost.
