`` 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 kiss that had been for no one else , Peter took quite easily . Funny . But she seemed satisfied . Of course all the boys went to school ; and most of them got into Class III , but Slightly was put first into Class IV and then into Class V. Class I is the top class . Before they had attended school a week they saw what goats they had been not to remain on the island ; but it was too late now , and soon they settled down to being as ordinary as you or me or Jenkins minor -LSB- the younger Jenkins -RSB- . It is sad to have to say that the power to fly gradually left them . At first Nana tied their feet to the bed-posts so that they should not fly away in the night ; and one of their diversions by day was to pretend to fall off buses -LSB- the English double-deckers -RSB- ; but by and by they ceased to tug at their bonds in bed , and found that they hurt themselves when they let go of the bus . In time they could not even fly after their hats . Want of practice , they called it ; but what it really meant was that they no longer believed .
Michael believed longer than the other boys , though they jeered at him ; so he was with XXXXX when Peter came for her at the end of the first year .
