Personality
Wendy is a very complex girl, and very different from the girl that flew away to Neverland with Peter. Sure, she still has some of the same qualities, such as being a hopeless romantic, but much of that naive little girl has disappeared. She likes to party and drink, even though she is underage. She doesn't always make the wisest decisions, sometimes hoping for love and acceptance, when really she is just getting used. Apart from her somewhat crazy side, Wendy is also extremely responsible and mature. She has to be, because she has a son. She is extremely loving and caring, not only to her son, but everyone she knows. She may not always make the best decisions for herself, but she makes sure to always make the best decisions for her son.
History
Wendy was a young girl, full of stories and life with dreams of adventure when Peter came to her window. She jumped at the chance to fly to Neverland where there were pirates, mermaids, and fairies. Neverland was beautiful, unique, and Wendy fell in love. She followed Peter and met the Lost Boys, and the fearsome Captain Hook. She took on the motherly role for the Lost Boys, showing them something they never had. It was then that she began to realize she was forgetting her own mother. And how much she wanted to be a mother and grow up. Throughout their adventures, Wendy had fallen in love with Peter. She wanted him to come with her, to grow up and become the man she wanted him to be. But, Peter wasn't ready to leave Neverland. He was the boy who never grew up. So after their great battle with Captain Hook, Wendy went against her heart and made the decision to leave. It was the hardest decision she ever had to make.
Upon her return to the real world, Wendy felt empty. Her heart had been left back in Neverland. She stayed shut in for a period of time, staring for hours at the window, wanting to see Peter's face appear. But the window stayed empty, and shut. After some months, she decided to stop feeling sorry for herself, and finally entered her life once again. Instead of going back to the girl she was before, she did a complete one-eighty. She spent every night out, drinking away her sorrows and pretending to be the life of the party. Of course, she was still empty, but at least she now had a distraction. Many mornings she woke up in strange places with only fuzzy memories of the nights before. It made it easier to forget about Peter, and the fact that he had never come after her.
It was one of those nights that changed her life forever. With too much alcohol in her system, she made the decision to sleep with the most attractive guy at the party. She was craving attention and love, and he was giving her everything. Weeks later, she found out she was pregnant. When she attempted to seek out the father, he wanted nothing at all to do with the child, and Wendy was once again alone. Although this time she had another life dependent upon her own. She cleaned up her act for the next nine months, pouring all of her attention onto her unborn child. It took her memories back to the Lost Boys, when she had said she would be their mother. When her son finally came into the world, she named him Stephen Peter Darling. Her son became her saving grace. Sure, it wasn't the love she had imagined, it wasn't a partner, and it wasn't Peter, but it was someone who craved her, loved her, and depended on her.
She stopped going out as much, becoming the responsible mother she always dreamed of being. For awhile, it was enough to make her happy. It was enough to keep her grounded. But after so long, she was craving the love and intimacy only a man could give her. However, now she was also looking for someone who would be a good father to her boy. Her son was able to fill up most of her heart, but the hole that Peter had left was still present. Currently, she is working on a college degree in Nursing and attempting to get her life back in order. Of course, that crazy party girl still hasn't completely gone away...
