AND NOTHING ELSE COMPARES
A whole day passed, as Jane got to know the boys a bit better. The sparkling sun shot through the holes in the Home Underground, bringing a cheery feeling, making Jane forget about her real home, and start thinking she had always been in the Home Underground.
Things passed almost too quickly. Stories of Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and the Little Mermaid came through the girl's mouth, out into the eager boys' ears.
"And as the seven dwarfs wept, the prince walked up to the princess." Jane recited, making it sound dramatic.
"What happened?" Squeaked Curly, almost jumping up with impatience.
A warm smile swept over Jane's features, as her peaches and cream complexion blushed. "Well... he bent over and gave Snow White a... farewell kiss."
The boys looked clueless. Well, all boys except Peter. They all forgot the acorn button Peter gave to Wendy, calling it a "kiss". Peter still held onto his thimble Wendy exchanged him with. Jumping up from his seat, Peter gave a know-it-all grin, crossing his arms and rocking back and forth on his toes.
"What's a kiss?" Nibs asked, raising an eyebrow as he rubbed his tan forehead with his dirty hand.
"Surely you all know what a kiss is!" Jane asked, her sparkling eyes confused.
"No they don't. They wouldn't have asked the question if they already knew what a kiss was." His cocky tone was aimed at Jane with a playful ring to it.
Standing up from the rocking chair she was sitting on, the female gave a side smirk. "Well, Mr. Pan? What do you think a kiss is?" Looking up at him with a questioning expression.
Slowly, Peter advanced closer to Jane, his aqua eyes fixated on hers. Jane could feel her heartbeat pounding inside her, and suddenly felt the room become hotter and hotter. She felt sick, she felt happy, she felt... nervous. She had never kissed a boy before; well, no one except her father.
She felt his fingertips brush against her side, as she smiled slightly. 'This is it.' She thought. Closing her eyes, Jane brought her head a bit closer, thinking she was too forward at the moment, but she wasn't in London. She was never going back to London, so she didn't have to be proper.
Peter gulped, widening his eyes. What was she doing? "Uh...." He released, not sure of what to do. Quickly pricking off another acorn button and holding it out infront of him, he murmured, "Jane?"
Popping her eyes open, she blushed immediately. "Oh, that's not a..." But when she saw his facial expression, a caring one, filled with happiness, she took it. "Thank you, Peter."
Putting the acorn in her pocket, she awkwardly sat back in her chair. 'How embarrassing', she thought.
