A Broken Love Rekindled •Complete•

The Meeting

"Stay down boys!" Peter Pan yelled to his lost boys. "He's coming around the corner."

Peter and his lost boys were tracking a run away lost boy. They had been chasing him for quite sometime now. The little lost boy was coming towards them now so Peter and his boys were hidden behind a rock.

"On my signal, get him." Pan told the boys. "Ready...set...Now!"

"Peter!" Someone yelled. "Peter!"
Peter looked around to see who was calling him but he couldn't find the voice. "Robbie!"

Robbie woke up with a gasp. He just had another one of his wonderful dreams. He loved going to Neverland when he slept. It made him feel so, free. He loved being called Peter Pan and leading the lost boys. He loved to fly.

However, he had a problem right now. He had been sleeping in class and the teacher caught him. Robbie looked around and saw everyone around him whispering, pointing, and laughing at him. It doesn't anger him as much as it embarrassed him.

Robbie's face went red as he tried to hide behind a book. Mrs. Johnston, the teacher of the class, walked towards Robbie.

"I need you to look at me." She told him. Robbie refused to remove the book blocking his face leading Mrs. Johnston to snatch it away from him, revealing his bright pink face.

"I'm really disappointed with you Robbie." She told him. "You used to be my best student. What happened?"

What happened? Everything! Everyone stopped caring. It seemed to Robbie that most people think he is invisible. His friends betrayed him, his girlfriend cheated on him, his parents hardly even talk to him anymore. Nobody cares. So he doesn't care anymore either.

"I can't keep letting you fall asleep in class Robbie." Mrs. Johnston told him. "I understand things have been rough for you lately but..." She didn't finish her sentence. Robbie's eyes started to fill with tears.

"Aw... is Robbie crying!" A boy sitting across from him said.

"Leave him alone!" Another kid from the other side of the room yelled. The whole room burst out into madness. People were yelling back and forth throwing things around and making a mess. Mrs. Johnston looked at Robbie angrily.

"You better fix this." She told him. "Robert Kay! Get back here!"
Robbie had gotten up and ran out in all the chaos.

"Where are you going?" Someone called to him. "Off to Neverland?" Robbie had made the mistake of telling his friend about the dreams and word quickly got out. People started teasing him as he ran into the hall. "Fly away Peter Pan." They all laughed.

"You'll all pay." He said under his breath. "I'll be the one laughing someday just you wait."

Robbie heard his named whispered through the entire school. Everyone was making fun of him as he walked by. He had no idea where to go to get away from them. They were everywhere. He turned a corner and ran face first into a door. Fortunately, nobody saw him. The door had a sign saying:

Restricted,
garden club only.

But he figured it was as good a place as any to get lost. That's just how he felt. Lost. Nobody wanted him, nobody was concerned about him. He was all alone.

Robbie opened the door slowly and made his way inside. Then he shut the door behind him. The garden seemed empty and it felt perfect to him. The garden reminded him of Neverland. Tall beautiful flowers hung all around, green leaves and grass lay everywhere just so perfectly. It really was the first place, besides Neverland, to feel safe to Robbie. He decided to take a walk around when he noticed something he hadn't before.
There was a quiet noise. It kind of sounded like humming. Robbie walked around the side of a tree and noticed a girl who looked to be about his age painting. Her painting was of the garden and it looked so perfect the way she had displayed it.
