Hey Guys! I'm so sorry for not updating in months! My mom's computer crashed and we were all sharing my dad's! I wasn't able to get enough time to work on a chapter for you guys! And then I just felt like I didn't want to write anymore. Sorry I was just going through some stuff. But forget me and here's the next chapter.
Last time:
Wendy's POV
It was just like I had remembered it; flying. The wind playing with my hair and the feel of air flying over me was something that I remembered in far away dreams. Having Peter beside me, made this experience the entire better.
Here we go, I can see it now! The star to Neverland! I'm coming family!
We're coming!
Present:
Peter's POV
I was home, and I felt great! Wendy and I were still flying over the sea to the lost boy's hideout. With her beside me, it felt like anything was possible.
We were at the hideout. Wendy and I landed and went to the 'door' of the tree. I spoke the password and we stepped into the shaft.
We were falling and it was exhilarating! Finally when we hit the ground I looked around surprised.
Wendy's family was here.
I saw Mr. Darling, Mrs. Darling, John and Michael. The boys had defiantly had done some growing from the last time I had seen them. Michael was about 6.1 and John was 6 foot. Both had lost their childish roundness but their faces were broken out in smiles at the sight of us.
I turned from the darling and looked at the lost boys, my lost boys. They looked at me shocked at first and then they all came crashing into me! I was separated from Wendy for awhile as they all tackled me and gave me boyish hugs, yelling and shouting, happy to see me! I was so glad to be here with them. I had missed my boys and had worried about them more than I had let on.
Then something occurred to me. Someone was missing.
Tink.
"Slightly!" I called over the ruckus. "Where's Tink?"
Everything stopped and the boys just looked at me sadly.
"They've got her Pete." Slightly whispered.
These boys are really going to get it if they're joking.
"What do you mean?" I said between gritted teeth. "You and I both know Hook's been gone for ages!"
"Pete," he murmured. "It's not Hook." He sighed. "It's Mr. Icebox."
Wendy's POV
I couldn't believe it! As soon as the boys ran to Peter, I ran to my family. We were all hugging and kissing, and everything just felt so right! Michael and John defiantly had changed. They were all trying to ask me what had happened to me and they were all concerned, when I heard some of Slightly and Peter's conversation.
"Slightly!" Pete called. "Where's Tink?"
I turned to look at the now silent crowd.
"They've got her Pete." Slightly said.
"What do you mean? You and I both know Hook's been gone for ages!"
"Pete. It's not Hook." He sighed. "It's Mr. Icebox."
Images flashed in my mind and I tried to control my breathing.
His hand on my neck.
Injecting the freezer into my blood.
Waking in the factory to his face.
Screaming as he touched me as no girl should be touched.
He was here.
I screamed and tried to run out of the tree house. I made it outside and fell on my side shaking and trying to control my gasps.
I felt the tears on my cheeks and realized I was sobbing. Two arms wrapped around me and I closed my eyes not wanting to look at Peter right now.
"Wendy?" His voice cracked with concern.
I couldn't answer as the sobs consumed me. He gathered me tighter in his arms as I cried.
"Wendy." He murmered into my hair. "He will never hurt-" He was cut off as his head sank listlessly into my shoulder.
I looked above his head and saw him,
Mr. Icebox.
"Don't make promises you can't keep."
Please review guys! I know I probably don't deserve it but please!
