I don't own Peter Pan and the Pirates characters.
Captain Hook paced back and forth in his cabin. He was thoughtful as he placed a hook under his face. *It's your birthday, Cecilia. I wish I had a present for you, my betrothed. You refused to marry me after I lied about my pirate life years ago. That was my Christmas present* he thought.
Tears formed in Captain Hook's eyes. ''I still wish to hold you. Even if it's for a few seconds.'' Captain Hook gasped after Cecilia's spirit faded into view. He recognized her dress, hat, etc. ''Why are you here?'' he asked.
Cecilia smiled. ''I heard what you said earlier. I can be with you for a few seconds.''
Captain Hook approached Cecilia. He began to smile. ''Your birthday present.'' Captain Hook wrapped his arms around Cecilia. He kissed her on the lips. *Cecilia's wounds from my lies healed* he thought.
Captain Hook released Cecilia. He watched as she stepped back. His smile remained. Tears ran down Captain Hook's face while Cecilia faded.
Wounds from the past already healed after Cecilia was embraced.
The End
