A/N: Update 4

"Are you serious?" I gasped, jaw dropping. "But wait, that doesn't explain Winnie."

"I'm not sure on the whole situation," Slightly replied. "But all I heard is that Hook found her running around the island confused and lost. I wouldn't say he took her in so much as he kidnapped her, but she really didn't have a choice I suppose."

"But who is she? She was in Neverland. How come I've never heard of her?" Slightly just shrugged.

As the information sunk in I began to realize that it could not be a coincidence that Captain Hook was my new neighbor. He must know, somehow.

I sat there pondering on how Hook could have found me, when Slightly went rigid.

"What?" I asked. He pointed behind me. I turned around to see Winnie making her way over.

"Peter!" she called as she approached waving her hand. Slightly ran inside. Little punk.

"Hi again, Winnie," I answered forcing a smile.

"So, I was wondering. Do you go to Edison High School?" She asked a genuine smile on her face. I felt bad that I wasn't being completely honest like she was.

"Yeah, I do. I'm a junior there. Is that where you're going to go to school?" Stupid question. Of course she goes there, idiot. Why would she ask you otherwise? I thought as I replied.

"Yeah, tomorrow's my first day, and I don't exactly know where I'm going. Is there any chance I could convince you to come with my dad and me tomorrow and show us where it is?" she pleaded.

Oh hell no. I did not want to be anywhere near Hook. "Better yet, why don't I just drive you to school?" I offered. "And not just tomorrow, we can do every day. I mean I'm going there anyway." I smiled. While I will admit I had an ulterior motive to get on her good side, there was something I really, truly liked about her. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but she reminded me of someone.

"Really, Peter!? Oh, thank you! You're much too nice!" She exclaimed. She reached out, as if to give me a hug, but pulled back. "So what time should I meet you tomorrow for school?"

"Just be over by about 7:10," I replied smiling.

"Will you be able to give me a ride home as well?" Winnie asked, hopeful.

"Oh, shit," I replied. "I have baseball practice Monday through Thursday. I don't get home until around five. Is there someone who can take you home?" I felt like crap.

"No, but that's okay. I guess I can walk home," she replied, looking sad.

"If you don't mind waiting, I can give you a ride. It's kind of a long way to walk," I replied. "I know it's a long time to wait, but I'd hate for you to get lost on your first day."

"Well, I guess we can try it out. If it doesn't work, I'll figure something else out," she answered.

"I'm really sorry. Baseball season will be over before you know it though, and then we won't have to worry about it anymore," I said with a smile.

"Okay, great!" Winnie exclaimed. "So I'll see you tomorrow at 7:10."

"Sounds good," I replied with a chuckle. She turned and left.

I walked inside and found Slightly waiting for me on the staircase. "What did she want?" he asked. He had the worst stink-eyed look on his face.

I laughed. "She needs a ride to school, so I offered her one."

"WHAT!? Are you crazy? She's Hook's daughter," he yelled putting air quotes around daughter. "Don't you think she could be up to something?"

"I really don't think that she is anything like Hook," I said calmly. "Besides don't you think it's best to get on her good side?" I began daydreaming. Winnie seemed like a great girl. She was so nice, and really pretty.

"Hello!" Slightly snapped his fingers in my face. I shook my head, coming out of my trance. "You like her don't you?" Slightly rolled his eyes and stormed upstairs. As he stomped away, I could hear him saying, "Crazy, hormonal teenager!" All I could do was laugh.
