Epilogue
I held my breath as I embraced the breeze of Storybrooke. No matter what, it would never compare to the soft breeze in Neverland.
I had spent my day wisely in Storybrooke, visiting Ruby and Granny, Henry and the rest. Hook and Emma finally gave into their feelings and were officially a couple. They were doing fine. Snow and Charming's baby, which I had learned that his name was Neal, was healthy and beautiful. I visited Henry and it was like I had never left.
But when I did leave, there were no tears. It was bittersweet, but I would come back and they knew it.
I entered the portal back to Neverland. This time, there were no crazy tunnels to go down. I had manipulated it to be...well... safer.
When I had got back to Neverland, it was night, but no longer frightening. Neverland did have it's fair share of creatures, but they stayed away. They knew who the king of Neverland was.
I found my way easily through the woods, having walked through it so many times. Our treehouse wasn't too far away.
Then I could see it. It was kind of like a tree cabin, with many rooms and floors connecting to the large tree where we had fought such a long time ago.
And he was there, standing at the doorway, waiting for me.
"Hi," I smiled as I put my arms around him.
"I'm glad your back," he said as he pulled me to him more, "is everyone alright?"
I nodded, "Charming and Snow's baby is growing, Peter...he's so beautiful."
"And Henry?"
"He's fine. He got taller though," I smiled, "but you're taller."
He smiled mischievously and stood even taller, staring me down. I felt goosebumps all over my body, making me feel love and fear and wanting him to kiss me so badly.
"Do you love me?" he whispered.
"You know I do," I whispered back, "and I'll love you forever."
"Forever is an awfully long time," he said, bracing his forehead on mine.
"Then I'll make every second count." I smiled.
His gaze moved down to my hand and I raised it up so he could take it. He had crafted two beautiful rings, and I was wearing one, he the other.
"You know, now that I recall... we weren't finished back there in the hospital," he said, his eyes narrowing and a grin appearing on his face.
"Oh... oh wow," I said, my face getting heated and excitement running through my very being.
He crushed his lips to mine then and I kissed back.
And it was beautiful. We were going to be alright and live our lives without anyone stopping us.
It was finally safe to say that we had finally found our happily ever after.
Hey guys. Wow it has been a long adventure, and it's sad to say it's over...or maybe beginning? ;) It was fun to write and maybe I'll make another, but in the meantime I might just focus on one shots. Thank you so much to those who reviewed and kept it going. You guys are seriously awesome Until then, see ya!
