He heard the door shut and he peeked inside the room once more to see Wendy approaching the window. Gah. He quickly crouched and then sprang away.
He hung above the edge of the roof as he watched her walk outside and glance first one way down the street and then the other.
“It is all right now. You may come out of hiding. The boys are abed,” she said to the air around her.
He heart stopped. Was she speaking to him?
“Boy, I know you are there. You have been following me all day, and now I wish you would at least show yourself so I may sleep tonight without imagining you to be much more frightful than you are.”
Peter froze. Honestly. He had never ever been caught. In all the days he had traveled and zipped about London, no one—that he knew of—had ever been any wiser. And yet, after just one short day, this captivating, audacious girl was calling him out.
He watched the top of her head as she sighed and tapped a foot. “I am waiting . . .”
Where had this enchanting creature been all his life? He could not help himself—he chuckled and then clutched his mouth with his hand to stifle it, but it was too late.
Wendy whipped her head up and gasped as she stared directly at him.
