Peter's POV

I teleported Rae in the middle of the main room in Skull Rock. The torches lit up with the flames casting down their lights on the rocky walls. My shadow appeared as it floated towards Rae and I.

" What did Pan do this time? " , my shadow asked Rae. His arms crossed.

" Other than he insulted me, ignored me, and being bad as usual, nothing much. " , Rae replied with a shrug.

My shadow's glowing white eyes turned to me before he floated closer to me.

" You dare disrespect your faithful, beautiful, loving, and adorable girlfriend? ", my shadow asked angrily.

" No. " , I said sternly with crossed arms.

" It wouldn't be the first time that you almost lost her. " , my shadow sneered.

" Okay, the first time was when the mermaids grabbed her again. The second time was when her brother tried to kidnap her. The third time was when Scott took Rae to some town called Beacon Hills. The fourth time was when Rae wasn't paying attention to my rules and decided to wander off into Dark Hollow. The fifth time was me trying to punish a lost boy and she threatened to end our relationship. " , I pointed out.

" The sixth time was insulting me and refusing to apologize. " , Rae added in.

My shadow glared at me. If looks could kill, I would be dead by now.

" I'm still new at this relationship. " , I mumbled rubbing my neck awkwardly.

" You and Rae have been dating for a few months now. Grow up! " , my shadow scolded me.

" Grow up? I'm Peter freaking Pan for goodness sake and you want me to grow up?! " , I snapped.

" What else am I suppose to say? Man up and respect your girl? " , my shadow rolled his eyes.

" ENOUGH! " , I growled slightly. The flames on the torches grew at my anger. My shadow slowly floated backwards, being afraid of the fire.

" First of all, Petra and Scott hate my guts. Second of all, I'm seeing familiar faces acting weird with glowing purple eyes. Third of all, Scott may replace me as a leader. And now you dare go against me because you decide to point out my mistakes! " , I said angrily as I took a couple of steps towards my shadow.

My shadow floated backwards and cowered in fear at my anger.

" I understand that I'm a jerk, a disaster, a heartbreaker, a bloody demon, a cruel villian, a cold-hearted, a stern, and a terrible leader and person, but I'm doing my best to change who I am! " , I shouted.

" Pan. There is no need to get upset. I'm just looking out for Rae. " , my shadow said.

" Then who is looking out for me? " , I frowned slightly feeling hurt.

" You don't really need anyone to look out for you. You can manage on your own. I mean you prefer being alone most times so just leave it at that. " , my shadow stated.

" Great. My sister hates me. My lost boys probably don't like me as their leader. Scott dislikes not only me, but my leadership. Rae probably wants to escape this island. And now my own shadow is against me because I refuse to grow up. " , I said sadly.

Rae frowned before she shook her head.

" Peter. I don't hate you. I don't want to leave you. Even when my brother suggests that I do leave you, I refuse because I love you. Despite your flaws, you are still perfect to me. " , Rae whispered softly.

" Do you really think Scott would be a better leader than me? " , I asked Rae.

Her blue eyes just stared into my green eyes. She remained quiet, but her slience answered my question.

I felt a few tears roll down my cheeks. I felt hurt and betrayed. I didn't care who was after me because he or she was able to fool everyone except me and I had no support from anyone to figure it out. Not even Rae could back me up; however I don't blame her.

Guess my leadership was too harsh and stern for others to handle. I didn't even know that my leadership was being judged because then I would have done better. Sometimes I hate being the bad guy because every mistake you make, it reflects on you being a villian.

Rae gave me too many chances. I don't deserve her. I don't deserve to have a sister. I don't deserve to call the lost boys mine. I don't deserve Neverland. I don't deserve to have this island.

" Peter..." , Rae started softly before reaching out to me.

" It's okay. I understand. " , I said quietly before letting her place her hand on my shoulder.

" Not really, but just know that I love you. " , she whispered before hugging me gently.

" I love you too. " , I whispered.

I don't know where I stand in my relationship with Rae. I feel like I keep losing her, losing everyone else, my leadership rank, and my pride in Neverland.

And someone is trying to take it all away from me.
