They were both in Neverland for a very long time. Hook was there earlier, then Bealfire landed in the sea and came with Hook on his ship. Then Bae was taken by Pan. Hundreds of years passed, (I think it's very possible Hook and Bae met again during those years) and long after that Hook left Neverland somehow, because we was that he was back in the EF in 3x21. Bae left a few years after that, when the curse had already been cast.

All the Neverland events that happened after the flashbacks of 2x22 have never really been adressed, such a shame, because there are so many gaps in this timeline. I hoped they would do flashbacks to the past of Neverland in 3x10 or something, but we got a lame Charming, Snow and Medusa filler-story. Wasted opportunity!
