For reply Peter rose and kicked John out of bed , blankets and all ; one kick . This seemed to Wendy rather forward for a first meeting , and she told him with spirit that he was not captain in her house . However , John continued to sleep so placidly on the floor that she allowed him to remain there . ` And I know you meant to be kind , ' she said , relenting , ` so you may give me a kiss . ' For the moment she had forgotten his ignorance about kisses . ' I thought you would want it back , ' he said a little bitterly , and offered to return her the thimble . ` Oh dear , ' said the nice Wendy , ' I do n't mean a kiss , I mean a thimble . ' ` What 's that ? ' ` It 's like this . ' She kissed him . ` Funny ! ' said Peter gravely . ` Now shall I give you a thimble ? ' ` If you wish to , ' said Wendy , keeping her head erect this time . Peter thimbled her , and almost immediately she screeched . ` What is it , Wendy ? ' ` It was exactly as if some one were pulling my hair . ' ` That must have been Tink . I never knew her so naughty before . ' And indeed Tink was darting about again , using offensive language .
` She says she will do that to you , Wendy , every time I XXXXX you a thimble . '
