Wendy-
It was impossible to tell if the screaming in my ears was the wind rushing swiftly passed or my own voice. But I wasn't screaming, was I?
Suddenly, as the ground keeps rushing up at me, arms encircle my waist in a protective grip and it's like my vision turns on reverse. Instead of continuing towards my face, the cement starts to become farther and farther away from me. Soon, I can see all of the estates and buggies as if they were a child's map.
Peter shifts me into a better position, bridal style, with my head resting comfortably on his - rather muscular - chest. I sigh, not in disappointment -because I expected to fall, and grip onto Peter's shirt.
"It's alright, Wendy, you'll learn again," Peter offers. His chest rumbles as he talks and I feel it against my cheek. It's a strange feeling, but extremely comforting.
I hum neutrally so that he doesn't know just how much I disagree with his statement. I doubt I'll ever be able to fly again...
The lights of London slowly start to get smaller and smaller as the stars in the sky seem to get brighter and brighter. It's like they're reversing; the lights of the streets are the new stars and the stars are my new street lights. Peter's grip on me tightens as the wind starts to whip around us faster. I squeeze my eyes shut and hold on to Peter, even as he shouts ecstatically.
"Wendy, we're here," Peter whispers, his lips close to my ear.
My eyes flutter open to a sight I'd bet a thousand tons of pixie dust is more beautiful than heaven. Neverland.
Peter-
I shoot up into the air as soon as Wendy jumps off the sill. Twirling and whirling, I rise up and up. Laughter bursts from me like one of Hook's silly cannons. "Isn't it just as fun as you remember, Wendy?"
A shrill sound rockets out of no where and my eyes immediately turn down to where Wendy was supposed to be. My periphery roams and suddenly I'm diving faster than ever towards the cement. Wendy's small form free-falls at a sickening pace and my heart clenches before my confidence boosts. Of course, I'll catch her: I'm Peter Pan.
My arms cocoon around her and I pull her close. Her own arms reach around and cling to my neck. "It's alright, Wendy, you'll learn again," I murmur.
Wendy makes a noise in agreement and snuggles more into my embrace as the boring world of adults swiftly disappears below us. The stars wink back at me, knowing my mischievious ways as we come closer and closer to our destination. The exhileration of being so close, so near to my Never Neverland zings through me.
We pass through and suddenly: We're home.
I crow in greeting, imagining that my dear home crows back. Glancing down at the lovely Wendybird in my arms, I whisper in her ears, "Wendy, we're here."
Her eyes flutter open and my heart thumps erratically at how her eyes shine for my home.
For Neverland.
*A/N: First off, I want to apologise for two very atrocious things. 1- I took so long in updating :( and 2- It's so short. Things have been pretty bad at my house and with senior year and my boyfriend now being my ex-boyfriend and I've just not been chipper enough to write a Wendy/Peter moment correctly and I didn't want to mess it up. I'm sorry this is so short. Also, I love you guys. I love the reviews I get from you all. You're perfect 3 thanks for sticking with me guys, I'm really trying to get the groove back. I don't really know where I see this going, but I know it's going somewhere good. It might take a turn from any Peter Pan and Wendy story you might've imagined, but I promise it will stay as true to them as I can make it. I'm back and your reviews helped me get this bit down. Love to you all!

p.s. - I had to drink a lot of Dr. Pepper and eat a LOT of Hot and Spicy Cheeze-its. Thank the people that made them 3
