PETER PAN FEAR OF GROWING UP FULL
He had no sense of time, and was so full of adventures that all I have told you about him is only a halfpenny-worth of them. Wendy would have preferred a more permanent arrangement and it seemed to her that spring would be long in coming but this promise sent Peter away quite gay again. Darling saw his mouth twitch, and she made this handsome offer: to let Wendy go to him for a week every year to do his spring cleaning. "Oh, all right," Peter said, as if he had asked her from politeness merely but Mrs. I have got you home again, and I mean to keep you." "Well, then, come with me to the little house." "Sneaky tell-tale!" Tink called out from somewhere round the corner. "Tink can't go a twentieth part of the way round," she reminded him a little tartly.
"It will be rather lonely in the evening," she said, "sitting by the fire." "I shall have such fun," said Peter, with eye on Wendy. They live in nests on the tops of trees and the mauve ones are boys and the white ones are girls, and the blue ones are just little sillies who are not sure what they are." "There are always a lot of young ones," explained Wendy, who was now quite an authority, "because you see when a new baby laughs for the first time a new fairy is born, and as there are always new babies there are always new fairies. "I thought all the fairies were dead," Mrs.
"How lovely," cried Wendy so longingly that Mrs. The fairies are to put it high up among the tree tops where they sleep at nights." "With Tink in the house we built for Wendy. "Keep back, lady, no one is going to catch me and make me a man." Darling stretched out her arms to him, but he repulsed her. "Peter," said Wendy the comforter, "I should love you in a beard " and Mrs. O Wendy's mother, if I was to wake up and feel there was a beard!" "I don't want to go to school and learn solemn things," he told her passionately. "Would you send me to school?" he inquired craftily. She told Peter that she had adopted all the other boys, and would like to adopt him also. Darling came to the window, for at present she was keeping a sharp eye on Wendy. "You don't feel, Peter," she said falteringly, "that you would like to say anything to my parents about a very sweet subject?" He did not exactly come to the window, but he brushed against it in passing so that she could open it if she liked and call to him.
He went off dancing through the house, and they all cried "Hoop la!" and danced after him, searching for the drawing-room and I forget whether they found it, but at any rate they found corners, and they all fitted in.Īs for Peter, he saw Wendy once again before he flew away. "Mind you, I am not sure that we have a drawing-room, but we pretend we have, and it's all the same. "Then follow the leader," he cried gaily. It turned out that not one of them thought him a cypher and he was absurdly gratified, and said he would find space for them all in the drawing-room if they fitted in. "I don't think he is a cypher," Tootles cried instantly. He was as glad to have them as she was, he said, but he thought they should have asked his consent as well as hers, instead of treating him as a cypher in his own house. Then he burst into tears, and the truth came out. Darling exclaimed, pained to see her dear one showing himself in such an unfavourable light. "I always cut their hair myself," said Wendy. He knew he was behaving unworthily, but he could not help it. "Father!" Wendy cried, shocked but still the cloud was on him. The first twin was the proud one, and he asked, flushing, "Do you think we should be too much of a handful, sir? Because, if so, we can go away." "I must say," he said to Wendy, "that you don't do things by halves," a grudging remark which the twins thought was pointed at them. Darling was curiously depressed, and they saw that he considered six a rather large number. Darling said at once that she would have them but Mr. They said nothing, but their eyes asked her to have them. Darling, with their hats off, and wishing they were not wearing their pirate clothes. They went up by the stair, because they thought this would make a better impression. They were waiting below to give Wendy time to explain about them and when they had counted five hundred they went up. I hope you want to know what became of the other boys.
