The whole night all I could thinking about was Pan. Did he say that because he was drunk or was it the truth? My daddy always told me if you want to get information out of people get them drunk. So he thinks my ass is cute? Oh peter how I miss you so. Wait what am I talking about, he kidnaped and sexually harassed me.  Damn it what is wrong with me? He is evil behind that strong muscular body, those amazing green eyes that you can just get lost in, and that somehow charming smirk that just makes me melt. Ugghhhh. I turn over and put my pillow on top of my head and silently scream into it. I’m like freaking Juliet and he is my Romeo. I can’t do this, I want him but I don’t at the same time. Thanks teenage hormones for making me like this! I need to take a walk. I got out of bed and put on my boots still in my pajamas, and yes I got new pajamas no more nightgown for a while. I started to walked out of the treehouse and opened the door. I started my walk along the quite beach. My thoughts drowning my mind as I tried to relax. The sun started to rise so I walk back to my treehouse. When I was about to open my door I see something on the ground nearby. I pick it up and it intoxicating smell overwhelms me. I unwrap the banana leaves around it and look at what they held. It’s a warm loaf of banana bread, the aroma making my mouth water. I open the door and head to my kitchen. There is only one person who I told what my favorite food was.

It was mid-afternoon I needed to find Pan. The girls had to do something so I told them I was going to go swimming. They told me to be careful and we hugged and went our separate ways. I walked to the lost boy’s camp and no one was there, they must be training. I was about to leave when I heard moaning from Pan’s tent. I walked over to it lifted to flap up and walked inside. Pan was on his side laying on the bed holding his head. I walked over to him and put my hand on his shoulder.

“Anna what are you doing here?” he asked quietly but then started to moan again.

“Shh it’s ok, I just came to thank you.” I rubbed my hand over his arm.

“So you got it?”

“Yes I did, thank you. Now how’s that hangover, you seemed pretty drunk last night.”

“Ughh worst decision in my life.” I looked to him with sympathy. “But that’s after letting you go.”

“Then why did you let me go.”

“Because you drove me crazy. You’re just so beautiful that I couldn’t get you out of my head.”

“Peter.”

“It’s true, I was falling for you and I couldn’t stop. Could you ever forgive me?”

“That doesn’t mean that we would go back to what we were. I could only have you as a friend nothing more.”

“A friend is better than nothing.”

"Then I forgive you."                                                                                                                                                                  

Peter I mean Pan and I decided to hangout by sparkle lake. Peter told me it wasn’t an ordinary lake that it was magical. He made me laugh the whole way, telling me stories of the lost boys and him before I was in Neverland. When we got there it was a beautiful lake with crystal clear water with cool looking fishes swimming around in the water. We sat by a rock and propped our backs on it. He picked up some stones and tried to make them skip in the water.

“How about we go swimming?” I asked breaking the silence.

“Sure.” I began to take off my clothes. “What are you doing?”

“I’m about to go swimming. I not wasting my little magic I have to make a bathing suit appear when I can use my under garments that will cover the same places.”

“Oh.” he turned and started to take off his shirt. Once we were done undressing we chased each other into the water. We splashed each other with the cool water. We found a huge rock and started jumping off of it into the water. After a while we got tired so we got out of the water and sat back near the rock. I rested my head on Pan’s chest and he played with my hair.

“Why did you bring me banana bread?”

“I thought you missed home so I brought you some.”

“Aww, thanks. You’re not as bad as I thought you were.”

“Thanks” he snorted sarcastically. I turned my head so I could look at him in his face.

“No really you have changed, at least towards me.”

“Well I haven’t seen you in a month, and I enjoyed the time that we spent together.” I rolled my eyes “I want to apologize for being an ass.”

“You do?”

“Yes, it wasn’t my place to do that to you, I understand if you don’t feel the way I do to you I just want to have some connection with you.”

“Peter.” I pull him close and my lips crash into his. My mind was telling me to stop but my lips kept moving to the pace of his. His tongue asked for entrance into my mouth and I let it in. We both battle for my mouth but his tongues wins and he roams everywhere inside. We have to break for air and we both stare at each other panting.  So much for only being friends
