Fic - Find My Way Home

Title: Find My Way Home
Rating: I'm not sure this is even PG
Characters/Pairings: kid!Neal, Peter, El
Spoilers: None
Content Notice: De-aging Fic
Word Count: ~1300
Summary: Peter never imagined anyone could have such an affinity for mystical de-aging objects.  Then again, Neal Caffrey is good at defying expectations.  And Peter is good at finding Neal Caffrey.

A/N: So this is my entry for the Kid!Fic Challenge going on over at whitecollarhc, but it also comes with an apology and a promise.  This story (ficlet, really) is actually the Kid!Neal fic I wrote a while back for a prompt challenge at a WC fan gathering in Chicago, but never posted anywhere.  When I signed up for the Kid!Fic Challenge, my back-up plan was to post this story, but I hoped to write a new one.  Unfortunately, "real life" (a.k.a. work, for the most part) intervened.  So the apology goes out to the Chicago 7, as this is just a cleaned up version of a story you've already seen.  For anyone else, the prompt game involved pulling three words out of a hat (or was it a Tupperware?) and writing a story featuring/prompted by those words, in a genre picked by the group.  My words were chocolate, coconut, and explosion, and my genre was fluff.  Except when I started writing it was kind of crack.  And then it was fluffy crack.  And then, somehow, the thread of a serious story crept in.  The promise is that I will post a follow-up story, and I hope to have it ready by sometime this weekend.  I finally figured out what my new Kid!Neal fic was going to be, and at this point I think I'm at least half-way done, but I couldn't quite finish in time to post it for the challenge.
