Wendy's POV
He had come back! I was so happy to see him. As he held me close I didn't care about the sirens that I could hear in the background. All I knew was that I was safe in Peter's arms.
Peter's POV
Quickly I pulled her closer to my chest, stood with her in my arms and ran out the side door that I had entered. As soon as we were outside I jumped into the air, and we were soaring through the sky!
I looked down at Wendy.
"Are you alright?"
She just continued to look at me and I then noticed that tears were gathering in her eyes!
"Wendy, darling? What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
She buried her head in my shoulder and whispered against my neck,
"I'm just so glad to see you."
Her breath against my skin made me feel warm in this dark cold night.
"I missed you too. I missed you so much."
As I flew I realized that Wendy was too light. She looked thinner than usual as I flew with her in my arms, but no less beautiful.
I flew her back to her old home, and when we landed on her bedroom floor she continued to cling to my neck. I pulled her closer to me, liking the feeling of her soft form against me.
Wendy's POV
Having Peter hold me had me feeling safe and secure and some other emotion that I could not name.
Slowly I pulled myself away from him and turned to look at my room. This was my room, but it was not. It was lifeless and messy. Just the way Tyson had left it. I walked around looking at the things that I had not seen in over 20 years!
Then I stopped and realized something.
"Peter? Where's Micheal, John…Mother and Father?"
He looked at me sadly.
"I don't know Wendy I really don't know."
Slowly tears began to roll down my cheeks. Where was my family? I sank to the floor and put my face in my hands. Silently Peter came over and put his arms around me, comforting me the only way he knew how.
Peter's POV
Soon Wendy began to fall asleep. Softly I picked her up, carried her to her bed and put her under the old covers.
As I watched her chest rise and fall I knew that I was feeling something strange within my heart.
Was it love?
