Disclaimer: I do not own Moulin Rouge. The lucky person who does is Baz Luhrmann. I make no money from this. So please don't sue.

A/N: OMG, people I apologize a million times for not updating. I got reviews and emails from people wanting me to continue and I just keep on forgetting to post, and when I remember, I don't have time. This is my favorite chapter so far so I hope that you like it. I will post more when I get reviews. ~~Beth

Peter Pan and Wendy

"Mother, Satine and I are leaving." Christian said as he walked into the parlor. She looked at him curiously, knowing that they had just talked to Charles. He winked at her and she smiled. "Alright then. Have a good night." She said and gave Christian a kiss on the cheek. "It was wonderful to meet you Satine." Anne said. "You too." Satine said with a smile on her face and gave Anne a hug. Christian and Satine each gave Emily a hug and said their goodbyes to Edward and Marilynn before walking out the door. As soon as the door closed, Christian pulled Satine in for a passionate kiss. She gladly accepted it. "What was that for?" she asked with a laugh when they pulled away. "I have been wanting to do that all day." He said with a smile. She looked at him warmly and kissed him gently. "Can I take you somewhere before we go home?" he asked. "Sure." She replied as they walked through the gate. Christian hailed a carriage and helped Satine in. "To the park please." He told the driver. Christian held her hand as the horses clopped through the streets of London. It was a clear, warm summer night. You could see all the stars. They pulled up to the park and Christian paid the cabbie. He jumped out of the carriage and helped Satine out. "I am going to take you to my favorite part of London." Christian told her and wrapped his arm around her waist. He led her to the middle of the park where she saw a statue. (A/N: I have no clue if this statue was there in 1900 or what park in London it's in but all I know is that it's there now. I also don't know if the book was published at this time but just believe it is for the sake of the story.) "Peter Pan. The boy who didn't want to grow up." She read the inscription. "Have you read the book?" he asked her. "Twice." She responded. "I used to pretend that I was Wendy and wish that my Peter Pan would come take me away to Neverland where I wouldn't have to grow up." She told him. "And I always wished that I would find my Wendy to keep me company and sew my shadow back on if I ever lost it." He said. Satine laughed a bit. "I think I found my Wendy." He whispered to her. "And I think I've found my Peter Pan." She whispered back. He kissed her romantically. "Satine?" he asked. "Yes?" she responded with a smile. He pulled out the velvet box from his jacket and got down on one knee. Satine gasped, knowing what he was about to do "Satine, I love you. My whole life revolves around you. I need you by my side in case I ever lose my shadow. Will you marry me?" he asked her, looking into her eyes that now had tears in them, that were threatening to fall. "Yes, Christian, of course." She told him, in a squeaky voice. He came off his one knee and hugged her tight. She laughed a bit in his embrace as the tears in her eyes were now streaming down her face. He pulled her away just enough to take the ring out of the box and onto her finger. She looked at it. "Oh my God, Christian. This is so beautiful. I don't need a ring like this. Oh, I just need you." She told him, more tears running down her face. "It was my grandmother's. She wanted me to give it to my true love." He told her. "Oh, Christian." She whispered and kissed him with ferocity. Both their eyes closed so tight. "I love you." She whispered to him as the pulled away. "I love you." He responded. She smiled through her tears as she saw a single tear fall down Christian's cheek. Satine brushed it away and kissed him gently. He smiled. He put his arm around her waist again and led her through the park. They walked around a bit, enjoying being with one another. They came to the park entrance and Christian hailed another carriage. He helped her in and then sat next to her. He put his arm around her shoulders; she smiled and placed her head against his chest. She could hear his heart beating. She lifted her left hand up and looked at the ring that now occupied her ring finger. It was a diamond with three smaller rubies to each side. The band was gold. Satine let the moonlight hit it so it would sparkle. Christian pulled her closer when he saw her do this. She smiled as he kissed the top of her head. She closed her eyes as she listened to the soothing sound of Christian's heart beating.

"Satine, Satine. Come on darling, we are here." Christian told her, shaking her gently. She woke with a start, realizing where she was. "How long was I asleep?" she asked as he helped her out of the carriage. He pulled out his pocket watch. "About twenty minutes." He replied. She laughed a bit. "I guess I didn't realize how tired I was." She smiled and grabbed Christian's hand as they walked up the path to their garret. He opened the door for her and they climbed up the five flights of stairs to the top level where their garret was. Satine opened the door and smiled. "We're home." She sighed. Christian came in behind her. "Yes, our home." He said and smiled. "I am so tired." She told him as she hung her umbrella on the coat rack as he hung up his coat. They both headed into the bedroom where Satine slipped into her off-white satin nightgown and Christian just stripped down to his underwear and undershirt. Satine went to the bathroom and brushed her teeth and hair before returning to the bedroom. Christian then went into the bathroom to brush his teeth. When he came out, Satine was already fast asleep in bed. He chuckled to himself as he went around to his side of the bed and blew the lantern out. He pulled the covers over himself and wrapped his arms around Satine who automatically moved closer to him. He kissed her forehead before he also drifted off to sleep.
