Sorry if this doesn't make sense or if there are mistakes. I was again
half asleep when I wrote this chapter. I hope you enjoy.
The American Adventure!
Ch. 8 The Locket!
Wendy and Peter entered the dining room right on time. They walked around looking for a place to sit. Adam Williams saw them wandering and invited them to sit with them for there was plenty of room at his table. Wendy of course accepted the invitation; Peter on the other hand resisted at first because he didn't trust this Adam character. But he pushed on and joined the group sitting at the table. Adam helped Wendy in her chair and sat in his own seat next to her. Peter sat on her other side. Mr. Williams along with other passengers was also at the table.
Mr. Williams: Miss Darling, Mr. Pang, how wonderful of you to join us.
Wendy: It was quite nice of you and your son to invite us. We were afraid there wouldn't be anymore room.
Adam: Oh, never worry about that Miss Darling. There will always be room for you here at this table.
Wendy: Thank you and I assume Mr. Pang is also included in that welcome.
Adam glared icily over at Peter who was doing the same back at him.
Adam: Of course. We couldn't forget about Mr. Pang now could we?
Mr. Williams changed the subject.
Mr. Williams: So how do you two like the Flyer so far?
Wendy: I think it's wonderful. It's not as large as other ships and it's not the smallest either. It seems like it's the perfect size.
Adam: I do agree. How about you Mr. Pang?
Peter really didn't know what to say, so he just said what came to his mind.
Peter: It's nicer then others I've been on.
Adam: What others are you referring too might I ask?
Peter: Oh, once I was on a ship called the Jolly Rog...
Wendy interrupted before he could finish.
Wendy: Finally, here comes our meal.
There was silence at the table as plates of food were sat in front of each person. All was quiet while they ate except for some soft munching that was coming from Peter. He was stuffing food in his mouth so fast like if there was no tomorrow. He didn't even realize he was that hungry until the alluring smell of the food came near him. Peter wasn't using silverware of course since he never did back in Neverland. As he ate, he didn't realize that he was the center of attention at the table.
Peter: What?
Wendy was embarrassed by his scene but kept a smile.
Wendy: It's nothing Peter.
She turns her head to the rest of the people at the table.
Wendy: Please excuse my friends' rudeness. He hasn't eaten all day.
Mr. Williams: It's perfectly all right. It's good for a young man to have an appetite
Peter stopped eating immediately when he heard the word "man" come from the old mans mouth. He hated it when he was referred to as a man. That angered him greatly.
He stood up abruptly making everyone at the table stare at him once again and wondered what he was doing.
Peter: I'm no man!
With that he left the dining room leaving a very embarrassed Wendy behind.
WENDY"S QUARTERS
Wendy opened the door to her room and expected to see Peter, but he was no where to be seen. She was very angry with him for how he had acted in front of everyone, but then again she knew how Peter hated the word man. Both he and she knew he was growing closer into becoming a man. She also knew that it frightened him dreadfully. It frightened her too. But she quickly skipped those thoughts and went back into finding Peter.
She left her room and went to the deck. She was sure she would find him out there somewhere in the sky flying off his anger. Even though he had made a promise not to fly for the entire trip, she knew he would forget about it even if it was a promise. Wendy knew flying was part of Peter and that she couldn't keep him from doing it.
She stood there, her arms wrapped around her for warmth, searching the heavens, hoping to catch a peep of Peter. After a few minutes she was about to give up and head back to her room, when she suddenly heard a voice from behind her.
Adam: Miss Darling?
Wendy turns around hoping to see Peter, but it was only Adam.
He walks up to her.
Wendy: Mr. Williams...
Adam: No please, call me Adam.
Wendy: All right, Adam. May I ask what your doing out here?
Adam: Well, I could ask you the same thing?
Wendy gave him a small smile.
Adam: I actually came up here to see if I could assist you in any way.
Wendy: And why do you think I need assisting?
Adam: I saw you rush off from you room so quickly I was afraid something might be wrong.
Wendy: Thanks for your concern, but all is fine.
Adam: Then why were you out here, on such a chilly night, all by yourself if nothing is wrong?
Wendy: If you really must know, I came out here to look at the sky.
(She really couldn't tell him, that she was actually looking for a flying boy now could she?)
Adam: The sky? What is so great about the sky?
Wendy: Well, it's not just the sky but the stars, the clouds, and the moon. It's just all so beautiful.
Adam: I know what else is beautiful, and it's standing right in front of me.
Wendy blushed and gave him another warm smile. She just couldn't keep herself from blushing when she was around him. Wendy was getting a little chilly suddenly and really wanted to go back to her room; hoping that Peter was now back at the room since she didn't find him outside. They really needed to talk.
Wendy: Adam, I'm sorry to cut this short, but I think I better go back to my room now.
She had just taken a few steps when she felt Adams hand on her shoulder.
Adam: Miss. Darling, before you leave I have something to give you.
Wendy turned back towards him and smiled.
Wendy: Oh, please call me Wendy and what is it you have to give?
Adam reached into his pocket and brought out a small box.
Adam: Wendy, I know it's not very appropriate to give a lady a gift in such a small amount of time of knowing her, but I thought this was something you could use during your trip.
Wendy looked at the box curiously wondering what it could be.
Adam opened the lid of the box, and there laid a locket of what it looked like was pure gold, on a long chain. On the very front engraved in the gold was an angel with wings that was flying through the air
Wendy looked at it lovingly, but wondered how she was supposed to use it for her trip.
Wendy: It is very lovely, but how is this supposed to help me on my trip?
Adam: It is what's inside that will give you help.
She gently opened it and let out a small laugh.
Inside was a little clock that held small diamonds as its numbers.
Wendy: Oh thank you very much. I do believe this will help me much throughout my trip.
Adam smiled, glad that she liked it.
Adam: You are very welcome, Wendy. Do you want me to help you put it on?
Wendy nodded and lifted up her hair.
Adam gently put the locket's chain around her neck and hooked it together, so it laid over her other necklace she was wearing.
Adam: I must say that it looks beautiful on you.
Wendy: Thank you!
She began to shiver. Adam noticed.
Adam: I am so sorry; please you must let me escort you back to your quarters.
Wendy nodded and together they walked back into the warmth of the inside.
Suddenly a head pops up from the ocean side of the ship. You may have guessed it, it was Peter. He had witnessed the whole conversation between Wendy and Adam. We all know he was angry earlier, but that anger had turned into sadness. For he had also witnessed the covering of his kiss to Wendy, by another kiss from the one named Adam.
