Y/N's POV:
It had been a long day, I slipped into bed and cuddled my plush rabbit I have had since childhood.
Hours had passed and I was snoring away before a large bang interrupted my sleep.
I opened my eyes and saw my window had burst open, the curtains flailing about in the cold breeze of the night.
How on earth did the window become unlocked in the first place? Someone had obviously broken in.
I got up out of bed and went to shut it before a hand covered my mouth as I got pulled backwards onto the floor.
My hands and feet were tied up tightly with rope so I couldn't get up.
I looked up but it was so dark the figures were hard to make out, except for one. The moonlight shone on his coat, the red and gold shimmered in the light. He wore a large red hat with a fluffy white feather and it seemed one of his hands was a hook? It must just be the light.
I got pushed into a bag and then thrown about until I was hurled through the air, I looked through a gash in the sack and saw a ship but it was floating? My head hit a wooden beam and it was lights out from there.

I woke up but I was out of the bag now tied up against a large wooden pole.
There were pirates everywhere, the smell of rum and salt water hit me like a bus.
I attempted to slip out of the ropes but they were too tightly knotted.
The same figure appeared yet this time he was in full light, he walked towards me with a knife in hand incase he didn't like what he heard.
He lifted my head up with his hooked hand by the chin and forced me to look at him.

I didn't dare move, I could barely breathe under the restraints of the rope.

"What do you want with me?" I dare ask, "I'm scared, I have no idea where I am and and-" I suddenly realised I was crying.
"Dry your eyes my dear~" He slipped the knife into a pocket and wiped my face with his only hand. It was surprisingly clean for a pirate but I suppose the Captain would remain quite clean.
"It's rather rude of me not to introduce myself, I'm Captain James Bartholomew Hook but you can call me James.." He smirked, his moustache bent up in a V-shape as he smiled.
"Right okay.. I'm Y/N! But you still haven't answered my question, what do you want with me?"
"Ah yes, well, I'm awfully lonely here on Neverland. As the most feared pirate in the lands no one has the guts to love me.. So I figured I'd just have to find someone who will learn to love me and that someone is you my dear!" he chuckled.

"That doesn't sound very healthy to me..." I said quietly as he dragged me out of the ropes and threw me over his shoulder.
"Oh Y/N, life is never very healthy... Especially with an attitude like yours."
He started walking through the crowd with me held tightly against him.
I saw the rest of Neverland in the distance, the green hills, a rainbow, the bluest of skies.
I looked back infront of me to see we were heading into the Captain's room.

He laid me gently down on his bed.
"I know this is happening quite fast but you have to understand.. I'm lonely.. I want to be loved. I want to feel something other than hate or anger," his oily voice whispered.
"I know you're scared and it probably wasn't the best to kidnap you but I had no other choice," He got up and strided over to a piano.
"This may soothe you, after all I disturbed your beauty sleep, get some rest my dear. You'll be safe here I promise." He gently played the piano quite well, even with a hook for a hand.
His long black hair fell over his shoulders and his eyes were closed as if he was enjoying the music.

I was speechless, this man was far more intimidating when he played. He really was a handsome devil...
But how did a pirate end up being such an angel? It was impossible.
I couldn't fall asleep here but I knew he wouldn't leave until I was, so I closed my eyes and pretended to fall asleep.
After a few minutes, the piano stopped but of course this was his bedroom, I carefully peeked under my eyelashes and saw him get comfortable on a chaise longue.
This was probably my only chance to escape but then again he did say Neverland so home was very far away. I had read about this place in a book once or twice but I didn't get far enough to read about Hook.
I sat up and looked around the room, I might as well get used to it here as I probably wasn't going home for quite a long time.
I leant back against the wall and cried, what am I going to do?

I felt my breath catch as I heard footsteps coming from the hallway.
Who was it? Was it another pirate? A nurse? A prince?
A man came in but it was different then the man who kidnapped me earlier that day, he was shorter, much larger and had grey hair. He had no moustache but he did wear little round glasses upon a large pink nose.
He came up to me, "Oh hello dear, I'm awfully sorry the Cap'n kidnap' you, here I saw this on your bed,"
He handed me my plush rabbit.
"I'm Smee by the way, now, off to bed, I know your scared but you need sleep, you'll be safe don't worry,"
He tucked me in and walked out locking the door. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad? Maybe this was a dream and I'll wake up in my bedroom? Maybe I really was marooned on a ship in the middle of Neverland?
I gave in and fell asleep.
