The Real Neverland

chapter 4

Maddie POV

My eyes were getting heavy, and my stomach started to grumble, then I heard a fantastic sound I looked up and saw the lost boys dancing around in a circle around the fire and then I saw Peter playing his flute it was such an amazing sound. I was like in a gaze to him. I couldn't look away.

He then looked at me and smirked while raising an eyebrow while he was playing his eyes never left mine. He then stopped and gave the boys a look saying its ok keep going. He then walked over to me and kneeled down to me.

"Could you hear that Maddie", he says holding up the flute I was going to nod but then remembered his comment about using my mouth?

"Yes I heard", I say, and he grins.

"You see this flute is a special flute; only special people can hear it Maddie", he says.

"People who are lost", I whisper, and he nods. Then sits down in front of me.

"Now Maddie where did you get the book", he asked again.

"I already told you I found it at the park", I said his eyes flashed with anger.

"Maddie doesn't lie to me you couldn't have found a book like that in the park", he says trying to stay calm.

"Well I did maybe someone left it behind", I say then Peter's eyes widen.

"Or maybe they did it on purpose", he said beyond a whisper.

He then got up and walked away. What the hell was that about what does he means, 'did it on purpose'? But all I know is that I have to get out of here I wanted to come here I did, but I've seen Peter have his little snaps I don't want to be here when he goes full-on angry, but I spoke too soon.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW?!" Peter yells at a lost boy and pushes him to the ground.

"I-I d-don't know p-pan", he whispers Peters breathe deep and heavy.

"OF COURSE YOU KNOW ARE YOU STICKING UP FOR HIM!" He yells again and slaps him on the cheek hard. I gasp how can he do that and what is he on about.

"Pan.." Felix tries to cut in, but Peter turns around and then with his hand, he pushes forwards, and the wind pushes Felix to the ground. What the hell has gotten him all fired up!

He then turns to me and walks up to me.

"YOU! DID YOU READ ALL THAT BOOK!" he yells, and I shake my head—big mistake.

"USE YOUR WORDS!" he yells, and I was expecting a slap, but he never did.

"N-no I d-didn't I only found it the day before I came here it was a thick book", I say, and he breathes in and out trying to calm himself down.

"Everyone goes to sleep", he says quietly they all look confused it was only two seconds after he said that when he said, "NOW!" he yelled, then they scattered off to go to sleep. Then he turns to me.

"You better not be lying to me love", he says then walks off and flicks his hand up in the air as he was walking, and with that, the fire went out leaving me in the darkness and confused on what just happened.
