Later that night
The fire was burning bright and the camp was more crowded than ever, my father had come with some of his maties. i stood over the fire and pulled my knife from my belt then slit my hand, the red droplets fell into the orange embers. i took a step back as the flames spat out and grew much larger
"Hoc rubeum venenum per venas ab effuderit est, petere per iter maritimum emporium fuisse quod ad novissimum tuum devorabitur flammis tua. sacrificium est pretium meum ad te, qui donum est (By the red poision that has spilled from my veins, i ask for safe passage towards thy voyagers that will be consumed by thou flames. my sacrifice is my price which is a gift towards thee)"
I glanced over my shoulder to see Pan watching me nervously "effundetur sanguis meus in hac nocte animam eripi nec ex ossibus hic meam (no blood but my own shall be spilled this night, nor shall any lives be torn from these bones, here my plea)" the flames grew more fierce. I turned my back to them "So? who wants to go first?"
The blaze formed a sort of doorway "It'll take you back home" Stiles looked so confused "First of all, how are you alive? and second, is this how everyone travels around, it doesn't seem safe" i smiled "I awoke yesterday, nice to know i wasn't stuck i bed while i was out. Pretty much everyone travels around with portals, so i'd say it's safe but i've never used a man-made fire portal, i normally use beans to travel around"
I stepped aside "Will we ever see you again?" i smiled sadly "I'll send postcards when i can, maybe drop by? I'd like to think so" one by one we said our goodbyes and they left through the circle of fire which closed as soon as the last departing member went through. i cut my hand again signalling that my request had ended.
I took a hammock and laid in it out of exhaustion, it wasn't even a minute before Pan was by my side "Let me see it" I examined my battered hand "It's fine" he took my hand in his and turned it over so he could see the two slices, I winced as he ran two fingers over them. He gave me a disapproving look " 'fine' huh?" I gave him a guilty look "It'll heal in a week or so, therefore, it's fine"
He looked at me as if I were crazy, then his finger wrapped under my chin and our lips made contact. a cough could be heard in the distance so we parted "Let me do this for you?" I shrugged as he kissed my hand gently, then waved his hand over my wounds. I examined his handiwork and tilted my head "does that satisfy your needs to tend to my every concern?"
he gave me that beautiful smile making me look at my father guiltily "Sorry for the amount of discomfort I'm about to cause you" I grabbed Pan and kissed him passionately earning grunts from Killian. I sat up trying to get closer to him but he pushed me down grinning "Tonight love, right now, you need rest"
I gave him a fake pout "Don't look at me like that love, you know i adore your games" I eyed him mischievously "and I yours" he kissed me gently and walked away. I changed into my tail and got comfortable as the music began to play.
The blanket thrown over me didn't go unnoticed. I opened my eyes to see my father "I think you and I both know who my happy ending is" he sighed and brushed my cheek "If you're going to say 'pan', I hope you have a concussion" I rolled my eyes "but I fear you are right" I smiled "and right I am" he sat on a stump and sipped his rum.
I watched Pan swirl around the campfire with his pipes, in and out of the lost boys he would appear, his eyes would occasionally glance to me now and then revealing that spark in his eyes to me. my eyes followed him for a while until everything grew hazy and sleep over took everything.
