Peter walked towards Henry.
As a form of greeting, they gave each other high-fives.
"I owe you one," Peter stated.
"So, she liked it?" Henry smirked.
"Yes," Peter smirked back. Henry laughed, "Told you so."
–ooOoo–
Emma hated Christmas. Henry changed that, though.
She stood next to her tree, sipping champagne.
Everyone was there.
Annoyed, she looked out the window.
–ooOoo–
"Swan-lady," Peter greeted Emma.
She turned to him at the sound of his voice.
"You look stunning," he smiled.
Her heart raced madly.
"Thanks," she whispered.
Raising an eyebrow, he inquired, "Enjoying yourself?"
"Sort of," Emma rolled her eyes.
Peter laughed.

A/N – 01/04/14: Long A/N ahead. I apologize in advance.
First, this chapter is another favorite for me. ;) The three scenes take place at Peter and Emma's Christmas party. While Peter talks to Henry about Emma's gift, Emma is standing by her gift (the Christmas tree) alone. She kind of feels left out and her emotions are threatening to overwhelm her; that's why she's annoyed. But I won't say anything anymore in regards to her emotions. ;)
Second, in almost every Peter Pan adaption, Peter calls Wendy either Wendy-lady or Wendy-bird. I totally stole/borrowed that term of endearment. Thus, Peter's term of endearment for Emma is Swan-lady. But sometimes he'll also call her girl, lost girl, and Swan-girl, and I will feature these terms in future drabbles. What should Emma's term of endearments be for Peter? Any thoughts or suggestions?
Third, because of my one hundred word limit, I couldn't write who came to Peter and Emma's Christmas party. (Emma, Peter, and Henry go without saying, of course.)
If you're curious, these are the official guests: Snow & David, Regina, Rumple & Belle, Granny, Ruby/Red, Whale/Frankenstein, Archie, Pongo, Jefferson & Grace, Geppetto & young Pinocchio/August, Hook, Tink, Wendy, Felix, John, Michael, the Lost Boys, Hansel, Gretel & their father, the Dwarfs, Nova, Abigail & Fredrick, Ashley/Cinderella & Sean/Thomas with their baby: Alexandra (she's about five years-old now), Eric & Ariel, Mr. Smee, and Magic Mirror/Sydney. Am I leaving anyone else out?
(P. S. Aurora, Phillip, Mulan, and Robin Hood are still in the Enchanted Forest. And the Wicked Witch of the West doesn't exist in this drabble series.)
And last, the Christmas party takes place at Emma and Peter's house. Also, I am conveniently leaving out Neal. But in your head cannons, some of you can either choose for him to be at the party or choose for him to be elsewhere! I'm leaving that up to you! :)
As always, please let me know what you guys think! Love all of the awesome feedback and reviews. You guys are the best! Love you all. Until next time!
