The day had gone so fast up until now, flashbacks of what happened only a few hours ago replay themselves in your head, over and over again.
You had your head resting on Peter’s shoulder as he cradled you, both of you’s sitting on the bed in Peter’s hut. To know how you ended up in this position, this is what happened;
The lost boys and you were out in the forest playing hide and seek, when you thought it would be a fun idea to hide up in a tree. Not so fun.. You had about one more branch to grab ahold of when your left foot slipped, causing you to fall into a bush. You thought it was just a random bush that grows in Neverland , getting ready to get up and brush off a few leaves and twigs. Wrong. As you tried to pull yourself up, you noticed that you were completely paralysed from your arms down.
An excruciating pain coursed through your body as you tried your hardest to move, but that’s when you realised. You turned your head just an inch towards your right arm, seeing a thorn jammed into your shoulder, and a slight black colour forming like tree branches underneath your skin. Fuck.
It was dreamshade. The deadliest poison on Neverland.
You started to panic, thinking that the lost boys would find you last and by then you’d almost be dead. You looked around to see if there was any form if life around you. Nope, just trees for miles.. How the hell were you going to get out of this?
Trying to find your voice but all that would come out was a soft whine, even after several attempts to find your voice, you were just making yourself weaker by the minute. Darkness started to fill in the corners of your eyes and tiredness was overcoming you. No, you didn’t want to die like this, knowing you died from being so stupid and falling out of a tree into a dreamshade bush.
But what else could you do?
You closed your eyes and waited for it all to be over until you heard the sounds of loud, rampageous boys, running. Their excited and joyful voices quieting down as you knew that they had spotted you. Hushed whispers started to bounce at you from every direction.
“Y/N… A-are you alright?” One of the younger boys, Mason, asked.
You tried so hard to respond but you couldn’t.
“Felix! Felix! Get over here, somethings happened to the lost girl!” Another boy, whom you didn’t know the name of, shouted.
You heard heavy footsteps walk towards you and then a hot breath on your face..
“Dreamshade…” Felix whispered, mainly to himself, but the rest of the boys heard him.
You heard quiet gasps as you felt strong arms pick you up, now lying limp against whoever was carrying you (probably Felix if you want), their chest heaving up and down slowly.
“Get to Neverland’s waterfall, bring back a bottle of water. Now!” You heard Felix’s strong voice shout.
The sound of boys scattering away and further into the forest filled your ears, soon being replaced with the feeling of being tossed around as if someone was running with you in their arms. You felt safe. Like you know that you would be saved, but also not knowing how much time you had left.
Ragged breaths started tumbling from the persons lips as they were running, their heart beats going a million miles an hour.
“Pan! Pan!” The boy shouted, yes, it was Felix.
The running stopped as you felt a curtain swaying past you, now being engulfed by a warm sensation. Was this Peter Pan’s headquarters? But surely, no one was allowed in here?
“Felix? What on earth do you think you are doing in he-” the boy with a British accent cut himself off as he saw you.
Peter stared at you with worry, sadness and anger..
“What happened to her.. WHAT HAPPENED TO HER!?” Peter screamed, but Felix still staying calm.
“We found her during a game of hide and seek, she’s been impaled with dreamshade in her shoulder, Pan. I’ve sent the boys to get the water, but I- I don’t know how long she was lying there..” Felix’s voice now starting to sound panicked.
Even though Felix was probably the most stone-hearted person in Neverland, he still worried about their lost girl. You were like a little sister to him..
Felix carried you over to Pan, gently lowering you into his arms. Peter held your small body close to his strongly built one, holding you as if you were to be protected from anything and everything.
“Hurry. Get the rest of them back here quickly.” Peter growled, not meaning to sound harsh, but stern.
Felix nodded and rushed out of Pan’s hut and ran towards the direction of the waterfall.
Peter carried you over to his bed and sat down, fluffing one of his pillows and leaning against the headboard with you cradled against him.
“Sweetheart, what happened to you?” Peter whispered, stroking back your hair and kissing you on the forehead.
“You’re such a silly girl.”
You grimaced at those five words, they sounded like you were worthless. Apparently you made a face when you heard him say that, causing Peter to chuckle.
“I didn’t mean it like that, Y/N..”
Peter gently squeezed your shoulder, not noticing that’s where the dreamshade had got you. A painful whimper left your lips, your eyes ever so slightly opening.
“It hurts, Peter..” A tear slipping down your cheek.
With the pad of his thumb, Peter wiped away the tear, giving a gentle peck to your cheek.
“I’m sorry sweetheart, it will stop hurting soon” he whispered.
A silence filled the room for a second as you both sat their, your ear pressed against Peter’s chest, listening to his heartbeat.
“Peter..” You mumbled, watery eyes looking up at him.
He looked down and stoked your cheek, signalling for you to continue.
“Am I going to die?” Your voice breaking slightly.
Peter looked up and sighed, leaning his head back and closing his eyes for a brief moment before reopening them. Light tears brimming his eyes.
“I don’t know.. I don’t know.”
