PETER PAN
THIS MUST BE A WAKING SLEEP. MORE NIGHTMARE THAN DREAM.
When I slept in my tomb, sometimes I would wake to its total, silent
darkness and wonder if I was still caught in the sleepworld. Perhaps this is
that, but instead of darkness, there is golden light.
It’s the only sensible answer.
Tinker Bell is dead. Killed by me.
There is no way she’s standing on my balcony, speaking my name.
Hello, Peter Pan.

An eternity passes in an instant.
Tinker Bell’s wings flutter behind her. She is the same age she was when
I killed her, immortal and ageless, more beautiful than any corpse has a right
to be.
She’s wearing the same dress she wore that night, when I spoke the
unspeakable words to her. The dress made to look like skeleton leaves, cut
square across her chest, jagged at the knees. Fairy dust swirls around her and
coats the balcony’s railing, making it glitter in the graying light.
“Tink.”
I haven’t spoken her name in a long time and the syllables feel like a
curse on my lips.
“Tinker Bell.”
She smiles at me and my breath hitches.
“It’s so good to see you,” she says.
“How are you here?”
Her hands take up a fold of her dress and she bends her body into a
demure S-curve. She flutters her eyelashes at me. “Did you miss me, Peter?”
My stomach sours.
I can’t do this.
She can’t be here.
Darling can’t see her and the twins can’t know she’s alive and Vane…
well, I know what Vane would say.
Get rid of her.
“How are you here, Tink?” I ask again.
I have to know the magic that brought her here, if it’s the island punishing
me again. If it’s Tilly fucking with me. Maybe Roc? Does Roc have this
power to deceive?
The panic rises like fire in my throat.
I have to get rid of her.
“The island brought me back,” she answers and takes a step toward me. I
step back and she pouts.
There was a time when I would have relented to Tink. I gave her anything
she wanted. She was the only friend I had and I was terrified of having none.
“I think I must be a gift for you and my sons and the court,” she says. She
flutters her wings and fairy dust catches an eddy of wind, swirling around me.
“A little light for your darkness.”
