Getting There: Peter Pan

"Daddy, I think he is waking up!"

"Urg," Peter moaned. He felt around and realized he was in a bed, a very comfortable bed at that.

"Hello? Are you okay?"

Peter opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was the face of a middle age man. He panicked and bolted up in bed.

"Where am I?!" Peter shouted, looking around.

"Whoa, calm down. You're at the hospital. Do you remember who you are or what happened?" the man asked.

Peter looked at him, not knowing what to do at first. This man was a stranger, and next to the man stood a little girl. Peter guessed to be about 7. She had curly brown hair that was pulled back in a ponytail. Her eyes were big as she looked up at Peter.

"It's okay. What's your name?" the man asked, seeing Peter wasn't going to answer.

"Who are you?" Peter asked so softly the man had to strane to understand.

"My name is Danny, Danny Ploof. This is Julie. We were at a rented cabin for the weekend and you came out of nowhere. You would have drowned, but Julie here saw you fall into the lake and I ran out to save you. Julie is my daughter. Now, what's your name?" Danny asked kindly, using every caution with this boy who was clearly afraid.

"Peter," Peter said.

"Well it's nice to meet you Peter. I'm going to go talk to your nurse. I'll be right back," Danny said. He left, smiling at Peter and Julie as he did so.

Once he was gone Peter felt even more uncomfortable. Julie was staring at him, and he was only wearing a gown that didn't tie in the back. He was careful to make sure he was covered with the blanket.

"What?" Peter asked finally.

"Where you from?" Julie asked in a shy voice.

Peter thought about it. Should he tell? Surely they wouldn't believe him, maybe Julie. But not anyone else.

"I don't know. I don't have a home," Peter said after a pause.

"Where's your mommy and daddy?" Julie asked.

"Dead." Peter said, speaking the truth. It was now 2004. Peter was sure everyone in his old family were dead. Maybe even the Darlings.

Peter shook the very thought from his mind. There was no way Wendy was dead. No way.

"How'd they die?" Julie asked.

Peter started to grow irritated. His face was burning a little but he didn't know what from. He glanced over to the door of his 'room' as Danny and a lady dressed in blue scrubs came in.

"You're awake! Great news!" the lady said.

She was about to take Peter's hand in her own but Peter pulled back, scutting as far back on the bed he could.

"Daddy, he says his mommy and daddy are dead!" Julie cried.

Danny shished her and looked up at Peter with the greatest sympathy in his eyes.

"Honey, let me take your temp. really quick. I want to make sure your fever is gone," the lady said, but Peter wouldn't let her touch him.

"It's okay. My name is Maggie. I've been your nurse since Saturday when you came in. Now it's Friday, I know you from head to toe," Maggie said, smiling. She must of been young. Probably just out of medical school.

Peter could feel his body shaking with fear and embarrassment. He brought his hand up and went through his, normally, messy hair but found it soft and easy to go through. Then he felt the ace bandage that was around his head.

"You must of hit your head before going into the lake. You have a big bruise and scar there. We put in 10 stitches to stop the bleeding. But, you should be getting them out in a week or so," Maggie said, "Do you feel okay?"

Peter nodded a pathetic nod.

Maggie walked up along to the top of the bed where Peter was sitting. She stuck out a thermometer and told him to hold still while she put it in his ear. It took only a minute as she clicked the button, making a beeping noise inside Peter's head, and taking it back out.

"101.2. You still have a fever but it's not as bad as it was before. I'll have a social worker come talk to you Danny and we'll bring Peter up some food. For now just try and relax Peter. Everything will be okay," Maggie said.

"Could I talk to you in private for a minute?" Danny asked Maggie.

"Of course," Maggie said and she and Danny left Julie and Peter alone again.

This is real short chapter, but the next ones will be longer.
