So the older ones have become glassy-eyed and seldom speak -LRB- winking is the star language -RRB- , but the little ones still wonder . They are not really friendly to Peter , who had a mischievous way of stealing up behind them and trying to blow them out ; but they are so fond of fun that they were on his side to-night , and anxious to get the grown-ups out of the way . So as soon as the door of 27 closed on Mr. and Mrs. Darling there was a commotion in the firmament , and the smallest of all the stars in the Milky Way screamed out : `` Now , Peter ! '' Chapter 3 COME AWAY , COME AWAY ! For a moment after Mr. and Mrs. Darling left the house the night-lights by the beds of the three children continued to burn clearly . They were awfully nice little night-lights , and one can not help wishing that they could have kept awake to see Peter ; but Wendy 's light blinked and gave such a yawn that the other two yawned also , and before they could close their mouths all the three went out . There was another light in the room now , a thousand times brighter than the night-lights , and in the time we have taken to say this , it had been in all the drawers in the nursery , looking for Peter 's shadow , rummaged the wardrobe and turned every pocket inside out . It was not really a light ; it made this light by flashing about so quickly , but when it came to rest for a second you saw it was a fairy , no longer than your hand , but still growing . It was a girl called Tinker Bell exquisitely gowned in a skeleton leaf , cut low and square , through which her figure could be seen to the best advantage . She was slightly inclined to EMBONPOINT . -LSB- plump hourglass figure -RSB- A moment after the fairy 's entrance the window was blown open by the breathing of the little stars , and Peter dropped in . He had carried Tinker Bell part of the way , and his hand was still messy with the fairy dust . `` Tinker Bell , '' he called softly , after making sure that the children were asleep , `` Tink , where are you ? '' She was in a jug for the moment , and liking it extremely ; she had never been in a jug before . `` Oh , do come out of that jug , and tell me , do you know where they put my shadow ? '' The loveliest tinkle as of golden bells answered him . It is the fairy language . You ordinary children can never hear it , but if you were to hear it you would know that you had heard it once before . Tink said that the shadow was in the big box . She meant the chest of drawers , and Peter jumped at the drawers , scattering their contents to the floor with both hands , as kings toss ha ` pence to the crowd .
In a moment he had recovered his shadow , and in his delight he forgot that he had shut XXXXX Bell up in the drawer .
