"Just a few more finishing touches and.... There!"

11-year-old Izzy smiled as she blew out the match she was using and placed it in the sink. She had just finished baking a batch of heart-shaped S'mores cookies for Red Jessica's valentines day party that'll be held later that day. But she had been up earlier as one, she couldn't sleep and two, she was just excited. It was the second time of the year where she could pig out on sweets and have a good time too.

Also, it was the perfect time to tell Jake how she really feels about him. Izzy blushed at the moment, The moon would be high, the stars would twinkle brighter than ever before and love would definitely be in the air!  And once the moon would reach its peak the two would proclaim their love for one another and kiss under the stars! It would be just like a fairytale she had read over and over and over again.

It would be oh so romantic! The only thing that could possibly ruin their moment would be those dreaded Dark Pirates and their hijinks. For some reason, they keep getting invited to events around neverland even when they cause destruction. At last year's party which was held at the coral castle, the three of them had bought actual arrows shooting them at various guests at random for their own entertainment. What's worse is that they had the bright idea to dress as their pirate crew! Needless to say, they were a hot commodity for the wrong reason at the party that night. Because of this, she didn't get a chance to confess, but this year was the year! By morning they should be boyfriend and girlfriend, as they were too young to get married.

Using a spatula she removed three of the best looking cookies out of the batch and placed them on a tissue sheet then placing them in a wooden heart-shaped boxed that was decorated in red and pink paint along with some small flowers taped around the box. As finishing touches, she placed some speckles of gold leaf on them. Closing the box she placed them in a cupboard, footsteps could be heard coming down the hall and smiled.

"Good morning Cubby!" She greeted, sweetly.

"Morning..." he mumbled rubbing his eyes as he sat down at the table. "Wh-What.. Are you doing up so early..?"

"I just couldn't sleep... I'm so excited about later!" she exclaimed, " Tonight the night cubby! I can feel it!"

"What if he rejects you?" He asked, slightly annoyed "What if something goes wrong?"

"Nothing will go wrong cubby!" Izzy proclaimed, her voice proud, "I made sure that everything will go right at the ball me and the women talked it over. We planned everything! If something goes wrong all that work would go down the drain!"

"Besides... Who would reject Neverland's angel?" She winked.

Cubby signed in annoyance as he gripped his head and cringed internally, he heard this ALL since last year. Ever since she came home one day and she was (Her words) "bleeding out red wallpaper", it's like her emotions and sense of maturity spiked up it was really weird. On the contrary, it's like Jake has somehow regressed in age especially now that he's a captain, he became cockier and more self-centered. To him, they aren't the same people that he met when he was six. Hopefully one day they'll mellow out and be normal again.
