` Michael ! ' ` Tell her to go away at once , Peter , ' the three cried simultaneously , but he refused . ` She thinks we have lost the way , ' he replied stiffly , ` and she is rather frightened . You do n't think I would send her away all by herself when she is frightened ! ' For a moment the circle of light was broken , and something gave Peter a loving little pinch . ` Then tell her , ' Wendy begged , ` to put out her light . ' ` She ca n't put it out . That is about the only thing fairies ca n't do . It just goes out of itself when she falls asleep , same as the stars . ' ` Then tell her to sleep at once , ' John almost ordered . ` She ca n't sleep except when she 's sleepy . It is the only other thing fairies ca n't do . ' ` Seems to me , ' growled John , ` these are the only two things worth doing . ' Here he got a pinch , but not a loving one . ` If only one of us had a pocket , ' Peter said , ` we could carry her in it . ' However , they had set off in such a hurry that there was not a pocket between the four of them . He had a happy idea . John 's hat ! Tink agreed to travel by hat if it was carried in the hand . John carried it , though she had hoped to be carried by Peter .
