Peter Pan 3: the lost girl

Chapter 14

(Tink's POV)
I flew through the forest as fast as my wings would carry me. I was furious! I landed on a rock at my favorite part of the beach and thought, 'The nerve of that pathetic girl! What a joke! She's just like Wendy, and Jane! True, Jane was a little better, Peter didn't crush on her as much as he had on Wendy, but now this Kassidy girl comes into the picture and she's just little miss perfect isn't she? Grows wings, can find treasure, sings incredibly good and what's worse is she can understand what I'm saying! And of course Peter just loves all of this. He even made her is "princess"; ugh, it's sick. He's so clueless! Can't he see that it me who's absolutely in l- what was that?' I turned around when I heard rustling. I tensed. What if it was a hawk, or some other animal? Or worse, the pirates. As I readied myself for the worst, Kat popped out of the bushes. I didn't relax. She was as much of a threat to me as anything else.
"What are you doing here, Kassidy?" I asked bitterly.
"I-I came to talk to you. I want to know why you seem so bitter and angry at me. I mean, I don't think I've really done anything to you. Have I?" she said in that sickeningly sweet way I absolutely hated. Peter could be such a sucker.
"I'll give ya three guesses as to why I hate you." I spat.
"You like him don't you?" she asked quietly. I turned and was surprised to see that she actually looked… ashamed. I almost felt sorry for her… almost.
"DING-DING-DING Give the girl a prize! Of course I like him. I more than like him, I-" I stopped. Then I tried again.
"I… I lo-" but I couldn't say it. No matter how hard I tried, it just wasn't going to leave my mouth. I'd kept it secret so long that I couldn't even say it.
"It's okay Tinkerbell, I know what you're trying to say." she said. Ugh, why did she have to be so nice!?
"And don't think I don't see what you're doing! I can see it, he likes you, he likes you A LOT! And from what I can tell, you like him too." I said. She jumped and looked nervous.
"No, that not- I don't, I can't…" but she trailed off. I nodded triumphant, sort of.
"Told ya. Now listen Kat, I know you like him, you know I like him. And if you want him that bad, then you're gonna have to fight for him. But if I were you, I'd give up, before I got hurt." I hissed and then turned and flew off. I couldn't stand her. It was getting pretty obvious that she really was related to Jane and Wendy. Pretty. Darn. Obvious.

(Kat's POV)
I stood there on the beach, dumbfounded. It wasn't possible! I couldn't be in love with Peter Pan. I mean he was a great guy, and he'd shown me such a great time here, but I don't think he could even come close to liking me like that… sure I'd seen glimpses and such but who's to say those weren't just wishful thinking? And even if he did, even if I was… was it really that obvious? I sat on the cool sand an buried a face in my hands. I was so confused. Peter couldn't be in love. That's just how things worked, he was a boy, who was meant to play all day and have fun. Not go crushing on girls and such. It was just too… grown up. I looked up at the glittering water only to realize my vision was blurred by tears. I rubbed them away furiously and watched the tides. I once again thought of my great grandma. Then the tears began to flow again and I hugged myself tight and silently cried. I just felt so… lost.
