~Peter~

I woke up to the sound of movement. I look over to my right to see the sleeping body next to mine. I turn over and watch the rise and fall of Max's chest. She looks so peaceful, so-so beautiful.

She turns around to face me and her eyes flutter open, and right when she sees me she smiles. I couldn't help but feel warm inside.

"Good morning love." I say stroking her hair.

"Good morning." She mumbles back as her eyelids droop over her blue eyes.

I sit up as Max releases a sigh. I do the same and stand up. I look down to see that I was already in my clothes.

Oh right! Last night I just fell asleep after I laid Max down on my bed!

I shook my head and walked to the other side of my tent. I sat down next to the sleeping Max and then leaned over her. Gently, I gave her a soft kiss on the forehead. I earned a little shuffle and then silence from the sleeping girl. I stood up and laughed.

"My Lost Girl." I chuckled and exited the tent.

"Someone's up early!" Felix laughed.

I sighed and let out a laugh.

"Well what do you expect?" I laughed. "Someone's got to run the island!"

"Or get more Lost Boys." Felix raised his brows.

"I was getting to that!"

"No you weren't."

"Ugh, fine! I forgot about that."

I grabbed a piece of fruit and took a seat on a nearby log.

I was so overwhelmed with Max that I forgot about finding more Lost Boys.

"So I guess the day's planned out for me then Felix." I said.

"I guess it is Pan."

I nodded.

"Well...um" I started.

"She'll be fine." He assured. "But where is she?"

I let out a nervous laugh.

"Well, she's sleeping." I answered.

"I know that, but where?"

I sighed beginning to get annoyed with all theses questions.

He's turning into Max.

"Where do you think?!" I asked.

Felix pointed to my tent. I nodded. 

"Did you-"

"NO!" I cut him off. "No." I laughed.

Felix nodded and walked into the forest. I rolled my eyes and laughed.

What the hell just happened?

I shook my head with a smile and headed to my tree stump. When there I took a seat and pulled out my pipes. Until I was satisfied I played, and as I played countless Lost Boys came and went, but one in particular didn't go anywhere.

When finished, I strapped my pipes back into my belt and began towards my tent. I arrived only to find Max, now half awake.

"Your alive." I laughed.

"Shut up." She said rubbing her eyes.

I rolled my eyes and went to my closet.

Scarf, pullover, pipes.

"What are you doing?"

"Packing."

"Why?"

I turned around to face her.

"Please love no more questions. Felix already put me over the edge with them."

Max smirked.

"Oh really? I thought that was my job."

I laughed and walked towards her.

"Oh love, it is."

I kissed the top of her head.

"I've got to go and get some more Lost Boys." I said.

"Oh, I get it now." Max laughed.

"Yeah." I smiled. "I'll be back soon, hopefully."

"Don't worry," She assured. "I'll be fine. I've got Felix and like twenty other boys to protect me."

"I know, but there not me." I told her.

"That I know, but still I'll be fine."

She stood up and began towards me.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Really! I'm sure." And she gave me a kiss on the nose.

"Ok, I'll be back soon."

"Bye."

"Bye.

I kissed her on the cheek and called for my shadow.

~Max~

Peter left two days ago, and countless boys arrived in Neverland. One after one after one. They just appear day after day. Felix has had to put up at least ten more tents at the least.

I've been here for about a week and a half now, and I've only explored a small portion of the island since I was restricted by Peter. Now, with Peter gone I have a sort of, well, freedom to roam around.

From the camp I followed a trail that led to a lagoon, the same one I believe that Felix directed me to earlier. I sat at the waters edge and looked into the water. I saw my reflection staring back at me. My brown hair was back in it usual fishtail braid, my lips were its same color of a soft and light red, and my eyes were still the same piercing color of blue.

I took in a deep breath and closed my eyes. When I reopened them I saw something the water. I stood up and grabbed my dagger from my belt. I leaned in for a closer look and I was shocked at what a saw.

"A mermaid." I whispered.

The mermaid submerged out of the water and sat on a nearby rock. She sent a somewhat smug smile my way.

"So the rumors are true. There is a Lost Girl her on Neverland." Her voice rang into my ears.

I nodded and clipped the dagger back to my belt.

"I guess so."

She smiled and dove back into the water only to come up closer to me.

"Why don't you come in for a swim?" She asked.

I placed my hands on my hips.

"Aren't you going to try to drown me or something?" I asked, focusing on her facial expressions.

"No! Of course not!" She laughed.

I'm going to regret this.

"Fine." I said and I began to takeoff my clothes.

With undergarments on, I hoped into the water. Head under I opened my eyes. Ready for the burning in my eyes, nothing happened. Instead there was stinging in my legs. I gritted my teeth the more painful it became until it stopped. I tired to move my legs, but I couldn't. So I looked down a let out a scream. I had a tail instead of legs.

Quickly I ran or swam out of the water and immediately the tail disappeared as I hit the dry sand.

"What the hell just happened?!" I yelled.

Like I said, I was going to regret this.

I looked around for the mermaid and of course she was no where in
sight. I swiftly grabbed my clothes, put them on, and took off running into the forest. I saw the camp.

"Felix!" I yelled looking back at the path, which was a bad mistake.

When I looked back around I saw a that I was about to ram into a boy, but it was too late so I ran into him. We both went tumbling to the ground.

"I'm so sorry." I said as I helped him up.

"No it's fine." He assured.

I liked at him from top to bottom. About sixteen, maybe seventeen, dirty blonde hair, brown eyes, some muscle but not much, and a tall figure.

"Are you a new Lost Boy?" I asked still staring a his figure.

"Yeah!" He said taking a good look around.

I stuck out my hand, now drawing his attention.

"I'm Max!"

He shook it.

"Aeron."
