"I still have to reward you..." his voice stuck in my mind as if a hammer hit a nail. What was this reward he spoke so confidently about? It was all I could think about. Time was different here, I had all the time in the world to think about his offer of staying or leaving, but i doubt even if i wished to leave he'd let me. "But what does he get out of it?" I shook my head, messing my hair up with my hands. "he's so confusing!" as if on que to cut the silence of my lonesome, "Were you talking about me, Love?" I sighed, "Why would I be talking about you?" He smirked, letting himself into my tent. "Because, lets face it..." He sat down on the bed, "you have feelings for me." I threw my pillow at him. "You basically kidn*pped me, why would I have any sort of feelings for you?" he stood up, "Because a book worm, like yourself, want's a little adventure in her life." He smirked once more, "I'm that adventure, Prinncess," he held his hand out, "I have a name you know" he ignored me, "Now, let's teach you how to shoot." I grabbed it reluctantly, and sighed. As I stood up, it was at if we teleported outside. "You have to stop doing that." He chuckled, "You've been here for 3 days, get used to it." I sighed, "I don't know if you've noticed, but no one else just does that." He ignored me again and handed me a bow. "My mother would be so disappointed in me..." he handed me an arrow next and pointed to the target. "no pressure," he said with a grin. he stood behind me as I struggled to ready my bow, I just couldn't get the arrow to stay. He sighed, "Like this," he appeared to my side and moved my hands to the correct areas, "grip harder here," he then placed his hands on my hips, "straighten your back and breathe" I did as he said, taking a deep breath, he whispered in my ear, "Shoot." Out of shock I released the arrow, "Not a bullseye but close enough for your first time," he smirked, "glad I could be your first." He winked at me. I choked, "W-w-what?!" He tried to hold back from laughing. "Archery love," I gulped, "r-right." he paused, "wait.. you're a-" Luckily Felix came by at the right time. "Oh! Felix! long time no see!" I walked past Pan, he grabbed my wrist. "we need to talk later," he whispered before letting go and disappearing into a thick green smoke. "how much of that did you hear?" Felix hesitated and just shrugged, "let's get you back to camp." The walk back was so silent, I was so relieved to hear music coming from the camp. "I didn't know you played." Pan stopped abruptly. "You can hear it?" he seemed troubled by this. "Yeah, I mean, I don't see why I wouldn't, it was loud." I chuckled, "Maybe you belong here more than you know." He continued to play. "Wait what do you mean?" He refused to answer and just chose to ignore me. I got fed up and went and sat down next to another group of lost boys, "Ms. did you say you heard the music?" I nodded, "Why, what's wrong with the music?" I laughed. They all looked at each other and whispered, "wait, why shouldn't I hear it? It's just a flute? Right?" They all nudged each other till one of them was singled out. "They say only the lost can hear the music. you're a princess, why would you be lost?" Pan put his hand on my shoulder, "I think that's enough for tonight boys, The princess should get some sleep" He helps me up and walks me to my tent. "Peter... Am I... Lost?" he paused, "That's entirely up to you. The better question is why are you?" he kissed my hand, "Goodnight, Love." He smiled at me and then turned around to walk away. "Pan," He turned back around, "help me..." He looked confused by this, "Help me find the reason, and I'll stay..." He smirked, "As you wish, Princess." He playfully bowed before turning back around and walked away.
