Peterpan¦Mia
°°°°

It was another unknown number.

My heart fluttered at the thought.

"Hello?" A faint voice said.

"Yes. Who's there?"

"Beautiful" he replied, now it's familier

"Beautiful who?" I played along with him

"Always you!" He replied. I smiled.

"See-" I said, knowing where it was going. Our first conversation.

"That's my point. You never see the things around." By this time, his voice was even more clear as if he was around.

"Hey, Mr Peter Pan, are you here?"

"In your heart? I am always there." Typical him.

"Are you drunk Dumbo?".

"Nopes Bells. Drunk minds speak sober. Sober minds are even sober. Turn around."

He said and my heart just did a back flip. I turned around and cried my heart out with no sound. Just tears flowing unstoppably.

"From the first time that we met or when we were sixteen,
I was always arround the corner but you never noticed me." Ryan said standing before me and as he winked and I threw a punch at him.

He winced. And sang, "And now that I'm without your kisses,I'll be needing stitches"

This time my lips curled up into a smile and I slapped him hard on his shoulder playfully.

"Ouch.. girl, tell me there are are things that you regret, 'cause if I am being honest, I ain't over you yet."

"Stop singing Ryan." I said laughing.

"Hmph." He made a sound, "not Ryan, it's your peter pan, Bells ." He said wiping my tears, "I’ll be here, by your side. No more fears, no more crying"

With this he pressed his forehead against mine.

We were back.

"You know how much I missed ya?" He asked

"I still hate you!" I said, not breaking the embrace, "tell me everything, Chase, calls, everything!" I demanded.

He nodded. "That night, we were drunk. Chase dared me to call you and I did. He thought it was just a harmless prank but little did I knew it would change my life forever." He paused and smiled at me, "The day I left you for Emily, was the worst day of my life. May be I liked her back then but more than anything I knew I loved you, and in an attempt to deny my feelings, I did the stupidest thing ever."

I looked back at him and stroked his hair gently as he continued, "after the phone call, I knew I had to apologize. I called you back but when I got to know that you didn't recognize me, I was happy. Atleast with my fallacies, I could still talk to you, still be with you... And speaking of Chase, I told him everything like an idiot, hoping he'd help me. He was my so called best friend afterall. But guess what? I was so wrong."

"Yeah you were an idiot." I said as he mouthed 'i know'

"I broke off with Emily. To be honest, we were never together. We couldnt, after all those things that happened, atleast I wasn't ready. Chase being him, couldn't stand me breaking his sister's heart. He stole my phone and rest you know." He sighed

"So?" He asked

"So?" I mimicked then be gave me his signatures supper sassy Ryan Woods look and I laughed.

"Isn't it beautiful how we broke, got hurt, built our own fallacies but never got apart?"

I smiled at him. He put his arm around my shoulder and kissed my forehead. I felt my knees going weak under his influence.

"I love you Ryan."

"I love you Mia. More than I love anything else."
