Peter Pan on Captain Hooks boat and making the body switch with Henry.
(Bree's P.O.V.)
I awoke with a jolt as I gasped out as if I was being drowned. I breathed rapidly as I blinked a few times and tried to control my breathing. Looking from side to side, I could tell I was in my room. The kingdom was gone and I was back to being Blaze Collins, the girl who's lived in Storybrooke forever, working at Granny's Diner. Though, I had all my memories intact this time.
I sat up and looked around, then noticing that my outfit was changed into blue cotton shorts and a white v-neck. Thankfully, whoever changed me left my undergarments alone. My feet hit the hardwood floor, light goosebumps rising on my legs. I stood up slowly, not wanting to cause a headache and walked over to my dresser, pulling out knee high NIKE socks and a black zip-up jacket.
I then made my way over to my closet, pulling out a pair of black and white, high top converse. After I was done I walked out of my room and around the oh-so familiar house.
It'll never compare to my home in Neverland.
"Good evening, Bree." Belle greeted cheerfully, wrapping her arms around my small frame.
I didn't bother saying anything, let alone hugging her back. She caused to much drama, along with her boyfriend.
"Want to go out? Granny's Diner is back and I hear that your job is back." Belle continued.
"Does her Diner have a secret passage way to Neverland? If not, I'll skip the job. Oh, but thanks for your oh-so generous offer." I stated, using as much sarcasm in my last sentence.
"Bree you need to understand that Pan is bad news. If anything, we're doing you a favor." Belle stated pointedly.
"Can you un-do your favor?" I sassed.
"Come on. I can buy you a cheeseburger, you used to love those." Belle bribed.
"I love something else now, or should I say someone else. I guess you could say my favorite things shifted over." I declined.
"Well, I think you need to stop pouting. You can't have everything you want."
"I don't get anything I want! I was about to marry an ass because of you! I ran away from the life I had in the Enchanted Forest because of you! I was tortured day, upon day, upon day because of you! The only thing I thank you for is being the biggest bitch in Storybrooke because without you, I wouldn't have found Peter. Though I can't really thank you anymore because you took me away from that, too." I exclaimed.
"Your telling me that everything we've given you, your ungrateful about? What about that time I was locked away from this family? What about the time I was locked away in a mental asylum?" Belle challenged.
"Really, Belle? You enjoyed being with Rumple. You should have been locked away seeing as you have Stockholm Syndrome and that my dear sister, is a bad thing." I countered.
"Says the one that fell in love with the man that you called a monster." Belle retorted.
"I did indeed call him a monster, but you were always the nightmare." I replied.
I walked out the house, letting a dramatic tension fill the room. I'm a boss like that, I've got that edge.
I made my way to Granny's Diner as it was the only place I grew to actually like in this horrid curse. Mostly because of the milkshakes and fries.
I entered the Diner, causing the bell to ring and Granny to look over as I entered slowly. I walked over to a booth and sat down, placing my hands on the table.
~~~~~Flashback~~~~~
"Peter can you promise me something?" I asked, looking over at him.
We sat on boulders next to the waterfall we had just swam in. The water was absolutely amazing and felt perfect.
"Of course, Bree." Peter replied, staring into my eyes.
"This is forever and nothing can change that." I declared.
"I promise. Even when I'm out of the game and can't get back in it, I'll always be right there for you in the end." Peter promised.
"What about when I'm out the game?" I whispered.
"Don't worry, you'll always be able to play. You'll win no matter the circumstances, you have to win." Peter said.
"Forever and always?"
"Forever and always."
~~~Flashback End~~~
I tear cascaded down my cheek, remembering the second date of Peter and I. It was at a beautiful lake with a waterfall crashing down. It had been the deepest blue I had seen and we had swam around for awhile. Not to mention the bonus of seeing him shirtless.
Our hands had been laced together as we sat closely, enjoying each other's company. It was absolutely perfect, as all of the dates were.
"Can I get you something, Bree?" Granny asked, popping a hip as she held a notepad.
"A strawberry milkshake will do, please." I answered, glancing over at her.
She was always a sassy one, but was also very strict about certain things. I guess I was around her so much that I began to show almost as much spitfire as her.
"Coming right up." Granny said, then turning and leaving.
~~~~~Flashback~~~~~
"Peter! No Peter!" I yelped out.
I laughed as Peter and I ran through forest. We were actually playing tag. Who would have thought that Peter Pan would play tag? It was apart of our date, our third date. Boy oh boy was I loving it.
"Tag!"
"Dammit." I laughed.
"Ah, ah, ahh. Pretty girls must not use foul language." Peter taunted, waving a finger at me.
"Then why do you curse?" I remarked, raising a brow.
"Did you just call me a girl?" Peter questioned, mocking offense.
"A pretty girl actually." I replied.
"Oh you're going to get it now!" Peter exclaimed playfully.
"But I'm it...." I trailed confused. "You can't chase someone who's supposed to chase you."
"I'm rewriting the rules." Was his reply before he ran after me.
"Ah!" I squealed, quickly running to another direction.
"I'll always find you Bree! Our paths are practically linked!" Peter yelled out.
I continued running with a bright smile. This was probably the most fun I've had in awhile.
Arms wrapped themselves around my waist and Peter spun me around. I laughed and he joined in it. He stopped, keeping his arms around me.
"I got you." He whispered into my ear.
I looked over my shoulder and stared into his emerald eyes, butterflies erupting.
"Forever and always?"
"Forever and always."
~~~End Flashback~~~
I looked out the window and almost choked on air when I saw Gaston.
Please kill me now.
Unfortunately, he saw me through the window and waved. He then continued his way coming inside the Diner and taking a seat across from me. I leant back, placing my hands on my lap as I stared at him.
"Hey, babe. You look great, I haven't seen you in awhile. I was thinking since your back home and everything that we could plan a wedding." Gaston greeted.
"Sure."
"Great! We could invite family and friends. Who did you have in mind?" Gaston questioned excitedly.
"Well, all of the Lost Boys of course. It should be held in Neverland obviously. I just might invite a few from Storybrooke but I wouldn't want to have any controversies at Peter and I's wedding." I started.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait. Peter and I?" Gaston questioned confusedly.
"No, Peter and I. Peter's not gay and even if he were, he has standards." I replied sassily.
Gaston made a fist and slammed his hand down on the table, never breaking eye contact. I could see him raging with anger. If he were a cartoon he would have a beat red face and steam coming out his ears. Pissy much?
"The fuck do you mean by Peter and you having a wedding!" Gaston out-bursted.
"Gaston, I can't talk to you when you're being so emotional." I taunted.
"Are you fucking kidding me right now! You think this is fucking funny?" Gaston raged.
"Aww, it's so cute when you get all angry." I teased.
"Bree! Stop fucking playing!" Gaston yelled.
All attention was on us now as he continued to yell at me. To be honest, this was absolutely hilarious and amusing.
"I think you need to calm down-"
"Don't tell me to fucking calm down! Calm your fucking cheating down, bitch!" Gaston shouted.
"Are you on your period?" I whispered towards him, a smirk gracing my face.
He was silent as his eyes bulged at my question. Granny slowly walked over with my milkshake and set it down slowly in front of me. I took it in my hands and sipped it while watching him. He stood up angrily and stalked over to the door.
"Bye!" I shouted after him.
He was out the door and I couldn't help the laugh that escaped. Everyone's eyes stayed on me as they watched me sip my milkshake until I was fed up with their stares.
"The hell you want!" I snapped out.
They all quickly went back to whatever they were doing as I scanned the place. I locked eyes with Henry and sucked in a breath as I remembered Peter taking his heart in order to survive.
He had to live in order for us to be together. Forever and always.
I looked away from him and got up, feeling a little enclosed by his presence. I walked out the Diner, ignoring the milkshake.
..... I'll always be right there for you in the end.
Peter's words ringed in my ear as I walked back to my Storybrooke home.
