I shall have such fun , ' said Peter , with one eye on Wendy . ` It will be rather lonely in the evening , ' she said , ` sitting by the fire . ' ' I shall have Tink . ' ` Tink ca n't go a twentieth part of the way round , ' she reminded him a little tartly . ` Sneaky tell-tale ! ' Tink called out from somewhere round the corner . ` It does n't matter , ' Peter said . ' O Peter , you know it matters . ' ` Well , then , come with me to the little house . ' ` May I , mummy ? ' ` Certainly not . I have got you home again , and I mean to keep you . ' ` But he does so need a mother . ' ` So do you , my love . ' ` Oh , all right , ' Peter said , as if he had asked her from politeness merely ; but Mrs. 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 . 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 . 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 . I suppose it was because Wendy knew this that her last words to him were these rather plaintive ones : ` You wo n't forget me , Peter , will you , before spring-cleaning time comes ? ' Of course Peter promised ; and then he flew away . He took Mrs. Darling 's kiss with him .
The XXXXX that had been for no one else Peter took quite easily .
