Chapter Six
My heart would never had been prepared for the beauty that lay before me. My senses in their entirety were being tested to their utter limits, and everything was being pushed towards me at once.
"Do you like it?"
I was utterly lost for words. It was perfect. I knew it was perfect. The words just refused to leave my mind, as if it wouldn't be true if they did. Nothing could physically describe how wonderful and magnificent the Neverland really was. As I stared out in front of me, it seemed there was more to see, than one could ever see in one's lifetime. Stretching far away from me, a glittering sun lit up the plains of the Neverland, ensuring that every tree, river, leaf and flower was glowing. The horizon shone an icy blue, not allowing any clouds to interrupt it's long, flowing line that it cast across the edge of the lands. A graceful river danced it's way through the terrain, swerving between large, blossoming trees, and small glistening lagoons. All of this was rushing through my mind, with the wind, as we stood above it all, admiring the wonder from atop a rolling hill.
"Do you like it?" Peter repeated, his hands still resting on my waistline. I said nothing.
My heart began to comprehend the sights in front of me. With this, my eyes began to well up with salty tears.
"It's so… so beautiful." I finally managed to utter. Places like this just didn't exist. They couldn't. They shouldn't. It was too much to believe. I quickly wiped the drop that had managed to escape my eye away with the inside of my thumb, attempting to do this without being seen. "It's utterly perfect." I placed my palms over Peter's, still staring into the distance. I whirled around, and wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him into a tight embrace. "Thankyou so much." I whispered, before turning back to the view.
Peter caught my hands, and twirled me around. I smiled at him, and he began to walk backwards. I followed, my fingers entwined with his, as though they were part of a knitted tapestry. He pulled me under the shade of a grand chestnut tree, and began to slowly close the gap between our bodies. Quite taken aback, I mimicked his movements, slowly inching backwards. As Peter's face was simply mere moments from mine, I took one step back too far. My foot caught under a heavy object, and the next second, I was staring at the sky.
As I managed to fall over the large root that spread at least ten feet from the tree, I had dragged Peter down with me. So much for staying on my feet. Peter chuckled, and again began to close the gap between us. His torso was pressed against mine, his hand pinning mine to the floor. My hair had spread around my face, and Peter's spare hand was brushing the stray strands away from my cheeks. His chocolate eyes were barely focussed, and his hair was tickling my forehead. I could feel the sweet scent of his breath filling me, making my head swim. I closed my eyes as his forehead touched mine.
"HEY GUYS! I FOUND THEM!"
