Title: Try Not to Forget
Author Name: Sephrenia Whisp
Category: Peter Pan, Adventure-Romance
Rating: T for romantic themes and tension
Spoilers: If you've never read the real, whole version of Peter Pan as well as seen the movie versions with Mary Martin and Kathy Rigby, the Disney version, Hook, and 2003's Peter Pan, you may not recognize all the subtle references I like to make. But you are welcome to read anyway. Just thought I'd list all the influences of it.
Summary: A girl who's always loved Pan is touring London and happens upon the house where it all happened. When the boy comes for her, can she prove to him that it might be worth it to grow up?
Disclaimer: I am not JM Barrie and don't own Peter Pan. Nor do I own any of the references made to things in London or about the books and movies about Peter Pan and Wendy. No money is being made and no copyright or trademark infringement is intended.
Author's note:Writing this, I wrote the romance first so I could see exactly how it would proceed. When it was the way I liked it, I began to write the filler adventures to give the story depth.
PS: Everyone knows that Peter came for Wendy a few times, and then Jane, then there was Margaret, and Margaret's daughter after her. Well, suppose Margaret's daughter never had a daughter. In fact she may never have had any children. Peter would no longer have a steady line of mothers. Would that be the end of it? I think not.
Try Not to Forget
Sarah strolled leisurely through the park taking it all in. She'd been in London only four days and had barely begun to see all the sights. She had been ecstatic when she found out her parents would allow her to go with a youth group to London for the good part of the summer. She had to check in occasionally, but she could do as she liked.
For the most part, she was following the suggested tour. Except for a few stops she added to fit her needs, most of the things she wanted to see were already on the list. For example, the Kensington Gardens was both on the list and somewhere she desperately wanted to go. The people who made the list knew what they were doing. Most of the extras were things from her favorite fantasy novels.
Oh what a romantic place they all made London out to be! And now they she was here, she had found little to contradict that view. London was brimming with adventure and Sarah wanted to experience all of it! The next day she planned to ride the train from Kings Crossing out to the country for a picnic. How lovely to have a picnic out in the country!
