"So if the to find the gravitational force of energy, you need to do what?" Mrs Jacobson searched the room with her eyes, landing on a student with her hand raised high. "Yes, Ms Pevensie?"

"You need to multiply the mass in kilograms, the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m / s2 at the surface of the earth) and the height in meters. so, potential energy = mgh."

"That is correct," the teacher smiled. "Thank you, Susan."

Susan smiled to herself, glancing back down at her open science book. She could hear the other student whispering around her, but she didn't care. They could laugh at her and ridicule her behind her back for as long as they want.

Even since she and her siblings had returned from Narnia, Susan had thrown herself into her schooling. If she couldn't go back to Narnia, she would make the most of her life here on Earth. Also, she didn't want to think about her last trip there. It hurt to much to remember all the fun times she had and all the people she grew to love and Caspian…

Susan shook her head, trying to dislodge the memory of her and Caspian's last kiss. She had to forget - it was the only way to move on.

The science class ended a few minutes later and as Susan was packing up my things, she heard the teacher call my name. Glancing up, Mrs Jacobson asked her to stay behind so she could talk to me.

Susan made my way to the front of the class and smiled at my favourite teacher. Mrs Jacobson was so sweet. She had a baby last year and had brought her into the class one morning showing her baby Choel off to all her students. All the boys had just grunted in acknowledgment, but all the other girls had cooed over the child for a while. Susan had stood back quietly, waiting for a quieter moment so she could hold the baby. She had learnt with Lucy that many babies got upset when many people fussed over them.

Once the crowd had dispersed, Mrs Jacobson smiled at Susan. Holding out the Choel, she motioned me to hold her. Cradling the baby in my arms was the best feeling Susan had experienced since she had held Lucy when she was younger. My heart ached for a child of my own. I was allowed to hold Choel for the rest of the class, as she was the only one who she would be comfortable with.

Soon enough all the students had emptied the room and it was just Mrs Jacobson and me in the classroom.

"Susan," she began, giving the brunette a sweet, soft smile, "you are doing so well with your studies, but I just wanted to make sure you aren't overdoing it."

Susan looked at her questionably. "What do you mean?" she asked her, confused.

"Well, I've noticed you have had to leave class a couple times to the bathroom pretty urgently, and you've been coming to school late the past few weeks." She thought back to the past few weeks. That had happened, but she just blamed it on the depression she's been feeling about leaving Narnia. "But you've always managed to keep your grades up, and even improve in a few areas. As I said before, I just want to make sure you aren't overdoing it."

She returned Mrs Jacobson's smile. "I admit, I have been feeling a bit down lately - it's just some personal stuff at home," - Narnia was technically her home - "but in all, I'm doing alright. Thank you for your concern though, it means a lot."

Mrs Jacobson patted her in the back and motioned that Susan was excused. That was the thing with Mrs Jacobson: she always knew when to let it go and when to push further. Susan obviously wanted her to not ask any on it and she noticed that. It was one of the many things Susan liked about her.

As she made her way out into the hallway, Susan thought back to the lesson. Deep in thought, as she was, she didn't notice the group of boys standing by the door of the classroom.

"Why'd ya get called to stay behind, Suzie?" One of the guys called out. Ignoring them, Susan walked onwards. She hated to be called Suzie, and the guys knew it.

Ever since she had gotten back from Narnia, all the boys hated showed Susan extra - and unwanted - attention. So far she had managed to hide it from Peter, but Lucy had noticed the guys following her around, and Edmund was as clueless as always.

The group of four or so boys kept following, all the way to her locker. Sighing, Susan turned to them. "Please, let me be," she asked them nicely, although inwardly she was fuming. With practised precision, Susan unlocked her lock and opened the door of her locker smoothly. Placing her books inside, Susan listened to the boys' answer.

"Huh, only if you told us why you were kept after class," one of the boys spoke up. "We all know how smart you are, so why'd ya get in trouble?"

That was it. She had had enough. Slamming her locker shut, Susan faced her rivals. "I will have you know that I get an A average in every subject, while you probably get now higher than a C." The boy sputtered, trying to think of some to counter her bland but true statement with. Susan just smiled and continued. "Not that it's any of your concern, Mrs Jacobson asked me to stay behind so she could see if I was alright. Yeah, that's right. That's called kindness; you should try it sometime. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have somewhere to be. But next time you see me, be courteous. I am a -" she almost said Queen but held her tongue, "a lady, and I demand you treat me like one."

With that, Susan walked away, her head held high. She could hear her classmates chattering in her wake, but she didn't care. Making out some of their conversations, she heard, "She thinks she's such a queen."

'You have no idea,' Susan thought to herself, smiling.

A/N: Hey guys! Thanks for reading my story! So this is my first attempt at a Narnia fanfiction, so please excuse any and all mistakes I make like if I get something from the books/movie verse wrong. I don't know when I will be able to update this - I have three other fanfics I'm working on…

I know there are other stories out there with this same type of plot, and I'd be lying if I say I didn't get ideas from those, but I'm trying to incorporate my own plot points in here.

Please let me know what you think and if you have any ideas for where to take this further! :)
