Peter Banning was on his way home to spend time with his six month old son,jack but he heard his phone since he was driving and risk getting a ticket. He parked his car near an alley way and continued his conversation,"Look Brad I'm tired of dealing with the papers and please call me Good Bye." He said hanging up before Brad could object. He sighed and turned the car on until he saw something move around the dark alley,'Must be those dang cats.' Looking closer it happened to be a girl possibly three years old wearing a geared shirt,white pants that is covered in dirt,and long messy dark brown hair.
Peter got out of the car and walked towards the little girl,"Excuse me little girl." He said to her when she saw him and hid behind the dumpster. "No your are your parents?" He asked walking towards her again. She peek her head out and looked at him for a while,"They left me." She said to Peter. When she said that Peter rubbed the back of his neck,"You have someone who take care of you?" He asks. She shook her head side to side just as he thought,"You can always live with me and family." He said pretending to leave. "If you want you know stay in a warm cozy bed and play with my son." He said heading to the car until the girl hugged him.
"Ok then get in the car while I make a quick phone call." He told her as took out his phone,"Roxanne." She told him when she opened the car door and looked at Peter. "Ok Roxanne thank you. Hello Moira you'll never what happened. I found a . . ." He stopped then looked at Roxanne who was in the car. "Actually I'll bring her home your in for a suprise." and hung on her. Peter got inside the car then looked Roxanne, "Let's go home and your see your new mother." he said and drove to the Banning's house. By the tine Peter and Roxanne came home Moira walked into the same as them and noticed roxanne,"Peter darling who is this little one? said moira walking twards Roxanne and squateed at her eye level. "Moira This is Roxanne and she's has no one so I wanted add a new member to the family." he said. Moira looked up at her husband and smiled brightly at Peter then brought Roxanne into her arms,"I always wanted a daughter." she said.

Fourteen old Roxy as she was called that growing up was sitting with audience to Maggie's play of Peter Pan which has always been Roxy's favorite story as kid. "Peter pay attention your daughters stealing the show." Said Moira. Peter was on a business call which was driving Roxy's and her family crazy,"Dad can you promise to go to my baseball game." Said jack.
"Yeah sure so anywa-" he was got interrupted by Roxy who took the phone out of his hands and put in her bag which she gave to Moira. "Thank you." She whispered to her. "I can't believe you did that Roxy when we go home your so much trouble." Said Peter who was upset with his adopted daughter. "Dad just watch the play you barely even looked at Maggie." Said Roxy crossing her arms and kept on watching the play. After the play was over Roxy gave her little sister a hug and Moira have her a bouquet of roses,"You really did great Maggie . I bet grandma Wendy would be proud of you ." Said Roxy picking her sister in her arms
"You really think she's really the real Wendy from my play." Said Maggie. "She is if you believe and if it wasn't for her I wouldn't know about Peter Pan and his Lost Boys." Said Roxy as she looked at her dad with a smile. By the time the Bannings got home,"Jack,Maggie be careful when your running up the stairs and as for you Ms. Ending an important buisness call are big trouble." Said Peter pointing a finger at her.
Roxy stopped at her tracks half way up the stair case then went back down to Peter's office and sat on a chair across from her. "I'm so tired you interrupting my work and doing what's best for the family." Said Peter. "What's best you miss out on everything that we do when was Jack's first game? Or when a time when Maggie lost her tooth? You tell me oh wait can't because your so busy with work ignoring our family." Said Roxy.
"That's it I knew you would act like this all is because your real family left you." Said Peter raising his voice. Roxy stood up then left to her room and slammed her door hard enough for the family to hear. Roxy flopped on her bed and sighed in frustration,"If he would've known about this problem sooner and he might've spent time with us." she told herself as she was getting ready for bed.( untitled_19/set?...) A few minutes went by until the door was opened then a shadow was making tis way Roxy's sleeping form who started waking up by the presence and gasped. "Jack what are you doing up this late?" sai Roxy rubbing her eyes then checked the time that read: 1:25 am.
Jack rubbed the back of his neck while looking down,"I couldn't sleep." he said blushing. Roxy giggled at her little brother and pulled the cover off walking towards Jack leaning down a bit,"You want to talk about it." she said touching his shoulders. Jack nodded and sat on the bed with his older by his side. "What was it that made you wake up?" she asked. "Well it started when i was playing batter on my last game of the season. I made a hit then running home and seeing you, mom, and Maggie cheering for me but I saw Dad a block away talking on the phone. I called him but he glanced at me then hung the phone up and was gone." he said in raspy voice.
Roxy sighed then putted two fingers under his chin, "Hey Jack look at me. I know dad isn't always there for us but it doesn't mean he still loves his family." said Roxy wiping Jack's tears. "I just want to be with dad like he did with all us. *sniffs* He tried but he wasn't there and I kept on getting him to pay attention." said jack crying on his sister's shoulder while she rocked him back and forth. After a couple of minutes Jack fell asleep in Roxy's arms and was carried to his room,"Don't worry Jack. He'll make it up to you hopefully." said Roxy kissing him on the forehead thne closed the door and went back to bed.
