Ch 6

"Fly?" Kate said, confused. Peter got that mischievous look on his face and Kate took a step back. "Peter, what are you talking about?" she said and he advanced. Kate loved the scenery when she flew with Peter the first time, but that was the last time. She was in the proper state of mind and her fear of heights was thoroughly intact.

"Last night you asked me to teach you how to fly, and here I am to do just that." He said, stepping into the light. Kate noticed that he looked oddly clean, dirt didn't mar his face and his hair was free of the usual leaves. "Did you take a ba-" Her question was cut off when Peter took hold of her arm.

"Don't you dare!" Her scream could be heard all throughout the jungle as Peter launched them into the air. Kate lost her breath and she scrambled desperately to get a hold on Peter before she fell to her doom. "Calm down, I am not going to drop you." He said.

"I don't know that for sure, sometimes I don't know if your brain is all there" She whimpered, managing to get a good grip on his neck. "Now land!" She said, threatening to choke him. She didn't like this helpless feeling and Peter wasn't always that reliable.

"If I pass out we both die" Peter choked out, wincing as Kate loosened her grip and buried her face into the back of his neck. "Peter I am really afraid of heights, please let me down" She murmured.

"Then why did you ask me to teach you how to fly?" He said. "I don't know, while I was sitting there in the dark I thought it would be nice to just fly away" She paused "You know, usual terrified thoughts" she said chancing a look around her only to find that they were up high in the clouds.

The thick white of them completely obscuring the ground below, it was oddly beautiful like the rest of Neverland. Kate waited for the fear to come but it never did. Peter felt her arms relax a little bit more and he smiled to himself. He knew she could do it; Kate could do almost anything she set her mind to.

Kate felt a little more calm in this space above the clouds, the sun was burning bright and the sky was such a brilliant shade of blue she feared she might go blind. "Still want to go back to the ground?" Peter asked, slowing down till they were hovering inches above the clouds.

Kate slowly let go of his neck and latched onto his arm, she knew better than to let go. The only thing holding her up right now was Peter's magic. The moisture of the clouds felt strange on her toes and she cracked a small smile as she thought of the games that could be played up here.

"Well?" He asked, feeling rather triumphant, Kate looked over at him and shook her head. He wins one little battle and it's like he just climbed the tallest mountain. "No" she mumbled, not liking to admit defeat to him. "Ha! I knew you would like it up here" he said, managing to pull her hands off of his arm.

He took her by the hand, feeling much better now that he could feel his arm. He knew his neck would be bruised but it was all worth it. "Would you stop it, Its only because I can't see the ground" She said, gripping his hand with both of hers. "That's the next step" He said, pulling her down through the clouds.

Kate felt as though she had been pulled under water only to resurface on the wrong side. She came out of the other side of the cloud totally drenched and a little bit confused. The world around her was still blue, and then it hit her. They were above the water; off in the distance she could see the outline of Neverland.

"There is land, are you still afraid?" Peter asked, lazily flying over the ocean and watching Kate touch the tops of the waves. Once again she was forced to admit he had been right but this time she wasn't going to let him gloat for long. "No, I am not afraid. I am much braver than I thought." She said, smirking.

Peter shook his head, all the while laughing at her haughty behavior. "Will you teach me how to fly then?" she asked, wanting to be able to fly on her own without the fear of falling. "Yes, but first we will need Tink. I told her to wait for us on the cliff we use for jumping into the water." He said, going a little faster now.

"She is going to be angry with me for this, but oh well, she can get over it" he said playfully. Kate wasn't so sure Tink would be mad at Peter. That Fairy had it out for her and this was just another thing to tack onto the list of reasons why Tink didn't like Kate.

"I hope she isn't to angry"

"Don't worry about it, Fairy's only have room for one emotion at once. She can't stay mad forever" Peter said, pulling Kate straight up the side of the cliff. The boys had tried to get her to jump off of it many a time but Kate always refused. It was such a long drop; she feared the water wouldn't be enough to break her fall.

They lighted down on a large boulder and Peter looked around, quickly spotting Tink's distinct glow perched on top of a large leaf. He glided over to her and began talking, Kate couldn't hear the little jingle that was Tink's voice over the sound of the ocean crashing against the cliffs wall.

She watched as Peter grew angry and Tink's light went red, then out of nowhere he snatched her up. Kate winced, he was never this angry at Tink, not angry enough to grab her so roughly. Peter stormed over to where Kate had taken a seat and put Tink right in front of her face. "Tell Tink that you aren't trying to steal me away to that other world" He huffed.

Kate looked taken back "Why would I take you there when I don't even want to go there" she said, Tink stuck her tongue out at Kate. "See I told you Tink" Peter said, still refusing to let her go. Kate took another look at Tink and sighed. "I don't think that's why she doesn't like me." Kate said.

Peter looked confused, like most boys he was oblivious. "Tink really likes you Peter, you even said that she gets angry when other girls are around you" Kate explained "Ever wonder why she gets angry?" Peter stood there for a moment trying to process this information.

"So Tink likes me?" Peter said, looking closely at Tink who hung her head. "Tink you're my best friend…" Peter began to say loosening his grip on the little Fairy. Tink flew out of his hand, swirled around Kate in a mist of pixie dust and kicked Peter square in the forehead before flying off into the forest.

Kate watched her go with a sad look on her face. "Poor thing, She has been with you since you were a baby" she shook her head "and you just threw her love back into her face" Peter was rubbing his forehead where a red mark the exact same shape as Tink's foot was beginning to form.

"Tink has always been my best friend, I can't feel for her that way. She is crazy; I'm not a Fairy. Maybe I can find her another Fairy guy." Peter said, thinking about going to the Fairy city. Of course Tink might not like that, she never liked living in the city.

"Well if you do anything you better do it soon, poor Tink." Kate mumbled, her mood now dampened. "I will fix it, after your flying lessons" Peter said, pulling Kate off of the rock. "I don't think now is the time to try to teach me how to fly Tink needs you to make her feel better" Kate protested, trying to pull away from Peter.

"I said after, now think a happy thought!" Peter said, shoving Kate off the edge of the cliff. He loud curse turned into a scream as she tumbled through the air straight for the ocean. The boys had done this jump many times before, but for some reason she couldn't bring herself to think that she would live after hitting the water.

Peter appeared at her side "Come one, think of a happy thought" Peter said, flying upside down. Kate looked over at him in an attempt to give him a very nasty look but found she couldn't. He looked so happy, and so free. A boy on the verge of being a man, doing the thing he was born to do, fly.

Kate wasn't sure when it happened, but the ocean stopped growing closer and the wind was no longer whipping across her face. Instead the gentle ocean breeze tugged at her auburn hair, the unrestrained tendrils swirling around her face with a soft touch.

"I knew you could do it" Peter said with that contagious smile on his face, Kate smiled back and let out a loud 'whoop!' before allowing herself to be led off, her hand clasping his as they flew towards the clouds.

|| Hey look another chapter; I have been in a writing mood lately. Thank you all for you comments and support. I have two different endings in mind, one only lasts for two more chapters and the other will be extended for a larger sum than that. I think I am going to go for the longer one, it has a better twist to it. ;) ||
