Chapter 13: Matters of the Heart and Family

Peter Pan

I groaned to the sound of knocking. "Amelia! We need you right now!" Neil yelled from the other side of the door. "Who is it?" Amelia asked yawning. "Neil." I replied watching her wake up. She smiled at me as she opened her eyes. I wrapped an arm around her as she kissed my cheek. "AMELIA!" Neil yelled one more time before she sighed and pulled away from me. "As much as I want to stay in bed with you all day, Neil won't let us." She mumbled walking towards the door as I chuckled. "Morning to you too, Neil. As far as I'm concerned, you're the rudest great-grandson I have ever had." She replied opening the door.

"Fuck you, I don't care. Get dressed, you to Pan. Family meeting in the Throne Room." Neil replied walking away. "Watch your language! And tell them we'll be there in a few minutes." Amelia hollered closing the door and sighing. "You heard him, get dressed." She said smirking. I chuckled as we changed. "Ready?" I asked as Amelia linked her arm with mine. "You've gotten soft it seems." Amelia teased as I raised a brow when we reached the front of the Throne Room. We pushed opened the doors to have Rumple charging towards me.

Amelia chanted as Rumple glared at her then at me. "Release me, Amelia. He's done so much harm already! Let me end him!" Rumple yelled as Amelia pushed him away with magic. "Rumple! Stop it with your hatred towards him!" Amelia yelled back pushing him as Rumple hissed and stopped. "Wendy has told us everything he's done to her." Rumple stated as my heart stopped.

"Wen...dy?" Amelia asked releasing the barrier, removed her arm from mine, and walked past Rumple towards the girl in a blanket. Rumple walked near to me. "Now she'll see what you truly are... Papa." Rumple whispered as I glared and pushed him back. He smirked as Amelia walked past him and turned towards me. I gulped as she had tears falling from her face as she slapped me.

"I... I trusted you! Stay the hell away from me!" She yelled running past me as I closed my eyes feeling the sting not only on my cheek, but in my heart as well. "What the hell are you doing just standing there?" Neil asked as I opened my eyes to see everyone at the table, but Neil was crossing his arms and raising a brow at me. "She does not want to see me, lad. Why would I disrespect that wish?" I asked raising a brow as well.

"You idiot! She's just angry at you for not telling her about Wendy! Didn't she says something to you at the boat last night!?" Neil asked whispering. I frowned remembering what she said, I love you. "See, you fucking remember so go and explain yourself damn it!" He ordered glaring. "Why are you telling me this?" I asked as he shook his head and rubbed his chin. "Because I don't want Amelia feeling or looking so sad. She's my great-great-great grandmother though we are the same age which is messed up somehow. She's family and so are you. I don't like seeing our family in shambles because of one kid you apparently kept for yourself because you wanted a mother for your Lost Boys." Neil replied sighing.

I frowned clenching my fist. "What did she tell Amelia?" I asked as he smirked. "There's the Peter Pan we all hate, but Amelia loves. Go find her and ask her. She went that way, by the way. Don't fuck this up or I swear, you're dead." Neil threatened, pointing towards the left hallway and walked towards the table. I chuckled running down the hallway to hear crying from the garden. I took in a deep breath as I followed the crying and saw Amelia hugging her legs towards her.

I silently walked towards her and made sure she didn't know I was there then hugged her, gently pulling her towards me. She tried to push me away, but she ended up crying on my shoulder. "Amelia... I... I don't know what Wendy told, but please tell me and I'll explain, please." I begged kissing her head. She sighed and wrapped her arms around my neck. "She told me that you were keeping her prison because you wanted her brothers to give you information about Rumplestiltskin. You starved her because she wasn't good enough as the mother of the Lost Boys. She said I was just a replacement for her. She said that you didn't really love me. Peter, I don't understand why you had to keep her a secret from me unless what she said is true." She replied closing her eyes and slowly pulling away, but I don't let her.

"Amelia, what she told you is not entirely true... I kept Wendy as leverage for her brothers to continue getting information from Rumple and as a Mother for the Lost Boys, but she failed that... At first you were just a replacement... But when you started to get the boys to be more open I... I fell for you and your magic. You were a girl that was not easily swooned by me. I thought of you as a puzzle I wanted to answer... And I wanted you all to myself." I replied caressing her cheeks. She chuckled, blushing as more tears fell. "Peter, I swear if you are li-" I cut her off with a kiss. She froze as I pulled away and kissed her remaining tears away. "I do not lie about feelings. You have my word and heart... I love you." I whispered as she blushed even more and wrapped her arms around my neck again.

"I love you too." She whispered laying her head on my shoulder. "Want to go back?" I asked as she nodded. "Before we go back... You planned to give Wendy back, didn't you?" She asked as I smiled and stood up. "Yes, I wanted to prove to you that I was changed even just a little bit. It backfired a bit as well." I replied as she smiled and kissed my chin.

We reached the Throne Room to have everyone look at us. Everyone was frowning except Neil and Snow. "I was beginning to worry you both wouldn't make up." Snow commented smiling. "What is it exactly do we have to discuss as a family?" Amelia asked as I helped her stand. "Matters about Peter Pan, this new threat we have, and lastly, what do we do about it." Regina replied as we both took our seat. "Firstly, let's discuss about Peter Pan." Regina said as Rumple stood up. I groaned internally as Amelia held my hand under the table.

"He's evil, he'd do anything to get what he wants whether it be the good or the bad." Rumple stated glaring at me. "But he's kept you safe all those years when he left. Who do you think gave you the dagger? Who helped you become good? It's not just Belle is it?" Amelia asked standing up as well. He frowned confused. "We don't follow." Charming stated confused. "Peter Pan is Rumplestiltskin's father." Amelia replied as Rumple had wide eyes. "You... How did you know!?" He asked scared. "Because I spent time with him long enough to know the man you called your father." She replied smiling warmly.

He fell on his chair as Belle hugged him tightly. "Wait, then how does he look so young?" Robin asked as I smirked. "Neverland has a different time concept." Hook replied glaring at me. "Let's not get over the fact that he's after my unborn son." Emma but in as Amelia tightened her grip around my hand. Everyone looked at me as I smirked. "I don't have any intention to take your son away, not anymore. I have better things to do than plan a life time just waiting for your son to be born." I replied kissing Amelia's hand in mine. She blushed covering her face. "How do we know that's not a lie?" Snow asked frowning.

"He's a man of his word." Rumple stated as he looked straight at me. "That settles matters about Pan then. Now, how the hell do we know this Author. As far everyone knows, he wrote our lives." Regina said frowning. "He's not the one that wrote your stories. Different people rewrote your stories, but this one is the worst." Amelia replied letting go of my hand and directed light towards the table. We watched as he took Hatter's hat and pushed him in. "There's your proof. What do you suggest we do?" She asked sitting back down.

"We obviously don't know what this man is capable of, but what we can do is cast a spell on everyone to end up in the same place when he rewrites our stories again." Regina replied smiling. "Right, cause you used to be the Evil Queen and shit." Neil commented smiling. "Charming, if you don't clean that boys mouth, I'll clean it for him and it won't be pretty." Regina threatened as Amelia and I tried stopped our laughter. "Is there something funny?" She asked turning her glare towards us. "Nope, no, none at all." Amelia replied smiling.

"Good. Okay, that answers pretty much everything. Any complaints?" Regina asked standing up. Everyone shook their head as she nodded and we all went our separate ways. Amelia linked her arm with mine again as we walked back towards our chamber. As soon as I closed the door behind me, Amelia crossed her arms and everything in the room shut close. "Anything else you want to tell me?" She asked as I smirked and started to walk towards her as she backed away. "No, none that I can think of. You practically know everything about me and my actions since Wendy was my only secret from you." I replied as she was trapped between me and the bed post.

"Any more plans you want to tell me? Aff-" I cut her off with my thumb on her lips. "I don't like that word, don't say it... I don't have any plans that you don't already know either." I replied as she blushed looking away. I leaned in to kiss her, but

I closed my eyes as Amelia chuckled. "What now!?" She asked annoyed. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt or anything! I just wanted to talk to you about Rumple." Belle answered from behind the door. "Oh goodness, I thought it was Neil. Now I feel bad." She whispered embarrassed. I smiled giving her a chaste kiss then a kiss on the head. "I'll leave you too it then." I replied pulling away and walked towards the balcony. "Where are you going?" She asked frowning. "I have to check on those boys." I replied smiling and flew towards Neverland.

Amelia

I sighed walking towards the door and opened it for Belle. "I am so sorry if I interrupted anything." Belle apologized. "Belle, it's fine. I'm sorry as well since I thought you were Neil and I yelled at you." I replied leading her to sit on my bed. "You were meaning to talk to me about Rumole?" I asked as she smiled sadly. "What's wrong?" I asked frowning. "He's... He wants you to go to him and talk. He didn't want to come here because of Pan. Amelia, please help him. I don't what else I can do with what he's feeling.' Belle replied near tears. I smiled hugging her towards me. "Belle, you're a strong girl. You were able to calm the beast in Rumplestiltskin. That's more than I can do... he shouted at you, didn't he?" I asked as Belle's water works started.

I sighed hugging her towards me tightly. "You didn't do anything wrong. I'll go talk to him." I stated as she nodded and I pulled away. "Just stay here or in the library. Get your mind of him just for a bit. Give him time." I said standing up and walking towards Rumplestiltskin's room. What did you do, Rumple...

I opened his door to find him leaning on the tailing of the balcony. "Go away. I don't want to talk to you." Rumple stated annoyed. "Rumplestiltskin, is that how I taught you to treat me?" I asked as he turned and glared at me. "So she went to you? The woman who I trusted, but ended up with my father whom I hate." He commented turning back to the horizon. I sighed and walked towards him. "You're being a child again." I commented as we looked at the horizon together. He ignored me.

"Alright, Rumple. Ignore me, but I will state my mind. I have practically raised you until I got kidnapped by your father. Your father has a heart and in all honestly actually wants to connect with you again. Rumple, go apologize to Belle for yelling at her. Cherish her, Rumplestitlskin. She's a good woman. You don't have to forgive me for loving your father, but you have to have heart that is will to forgive him. Rumple, I don't want any fights or arguments about him anymore. Rumplestitlskin, he's changed and him not denying that he did capture Wendy to become the mother of the lost boys. Keep this in mind when you're ready to say sorry to us, then stop being this bastard you make yourself look like." I stated kissing his temple and walking away to find Peter leaning on the wall beside the door.

"Did you hear everything?" I asked he smirked and shrugged. "I just got here." He replied offering his arm for me to take. I smiled and took at as he sneaked a chaste kiss as we passed by Regina who was smirking. "Thank you." He whispered as I sighed in content and leaned on him as we walked back towards our.

While everyone talked out their family and heart problems, the Author knows his time as an Author is coming to an end and he will stop at nothing to destroy every character. He's a step closer to destroying every character's happy ending, but what happens when the man of old meddles with the plans of the Author to make the key of the curse, the son of Emma and changes it with a much bigger and harsher way to start the curse? He will stop at nothing to get his sister back even if it means taking her happy ending as well.
