Disclaimer: I do not own The Chronicles of Narnia. If I did, Caspian and Lucy would have ended up together in the books.
Author's Note: Hello there, this is my first Narnia story. I've been a major Lucian shipper since I was in Elementary school and read the first few chapters of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. I'm now in college and FINALLY decided to write a story about them. However, this is based off both the books and the movies.
I also, don't know how often I will be updating, but if you like my story, please R&R. Favorite it, add it to your alerts. Do anything to show me if you like the story. Suggestions are welcome. I don't do well with flames, so please keep it to yourself.
Now, on with the story!
"Aslan, I need you." Caspian and Lucy both say from their different worlds.
Lucy's POV:
I was kneeling by my bed, crying, praying for Aslan to hear my prayers. This was the 10th time in the 3 years that I've been back from Narnia. As usual, I felt as if my hopes were too high and Aslan never presented himself to me.
My prayers must have come out louder than I expected because Edmund had come into my room and looked at me curiously.
"Lucy, are you alright?" he asked as the concerned older brother that he is.
"No, I hate it here and I want to go back." I sobbed. I couldn't lie to him. He sighed and pulled me to my feet and sat on my bed.
"Lu, I'm sorry. We both heard Aslan. I don't think there's any possibility to either of us going back. I'd love to go back just as much as you do, but there must be a reason other than 'we're too old' to go back. Our time in Narnia is over." he said.
"Ed, how much time do you think has passed in Narnia?" I asked a little dreamily.
"It's been 3 years since we left. Who knows? Time passes by there differently from our world here." he explained.
"Yes, I know. Do you think Caspian is still alive? Did he marry Liliandil?" I asked him.
"Well, he did bring her onto the Dawn Treader. Why Lu?" he asked me.
"No reason." I blushed.
You see, there are many reasons as to why I want to come back to Narnia. I have so many unanswered questions. I feel like I no longer belong here and that Narnia is my true home. You can say I left myself back in Narnia on the Dawn Treader. I also left my heart with Caspian. He may not know it, but he has my heart. It's wishful thinking, but I just want to go back to reunite with him. Also, no one needs me here. Mum has shut herself off from everyone but father. We don't know why, she just turned herself away. Susan started forgetting and would scold me every time I mentioned Narnia. She thought of it as childs play. Peter acts as if he had forgotten, but Edmund and I have noticed his longing to be reunited with a sword. He misses the battles, which is why he wanted to join into the war. The only difference was that he wasn't using a sword, but a gun. I think we all could tell that Edmund misses it there just as much as I do, but he's giving up much faster, which saddens me quite a bit.
Caspian's POV:
It's been months since Lucy, Edmund, and Eustace had left and went back to their own world. I was feeling restless and much stressed. With them on board, I felt relaxed, especially with Lucy around. She calmed everyone down. It also possibly made me realize my feelings for her. I couldn't stand having Liliandil with me after a month. I saw the real... person?... star?... that she was on the inside. Her ego was just as big as Susan Pevensie's. They could probably get along pretty well.
I let Liliandil go back to her home, but now the council is a bit outraged that I had let go of my only potential queen. This is why I keep praying to Aslan. I just need him to hear me out.
"Aslan, I need you." I prayed. To my surprise, he actually acknowledged my prayer. I opened my eyes to see the great lion in front of me, smiling. I quickly kneeled and bowed.
"Rise young King." he said.
"Aslan." I smiled.
"I believe I know what you are asking. I could accept, but it is also young Lucy's decision if she would like to stay here in Narnia. She can not go back to her own world if she accepts." he explained.
"I understand. If she does not accept, I will let you know due time." he said. I nodded and he disappeared.
Lucy's POV:
I was on my way to school when I felt a sudden pinch. No one was around me. It couldn't have been Edmund since he was ways ahead of me already making his way into his school across from my own. The pinch came again, I then realized it was magic. I smiled and a sudden gust of wind blew my way. It lead me towards the forest behind my school. I stopped as soon as the wind stopped and I found myself right in the middle of the forest.
"Over here dear Lucy." I heard Aslan's great voice right behind me. I turned and found the lion. I smiled and attacked the great lion in a big hug.
"I believe you would like to come back to Narnia?" Aslan asked.
"I would LOVE to come back." I said.
"You have a decision to make Lucy, if you come back, you are no longer welcome to come back here to your world." Aslan said. I stood there thinking about it, what about Edmund? I know he misses it there and it wouldn't be fair to just leave him here. It wouldn't be fair to leave Peter either. Susan would be okay staying here considering she no longer believes.
"Aslan, is it too much to ask if you ask my brothers if they want to come along?" I asked.
"If I ask them, they would have your same decision to make. How about your sister?" he asked.
"She stopped believing." I simply said.
"I believe that is my doing. The older she had gotten, the more she wasn't fit to be in Narnia. She belongs here." he said. I nodded.
"Well, Aslan. I would love to go back. I've made my decision. I want to stay in Narnia." I said. Aslan let out a loud roar and we were both sent to Narnia.
"I will go back to your world soon, asking if your brothers would like to come." he said. I nodded and he disappeared. I looked behind me to see Cair Paravel, newly remodeled. The guard immediately took notice of me. He was so surprised.
"High Queen Lucy?" he asked. I immediately recognized him. He was one of the crew members on the Dawn Treader.
"Hello there Ralph." I smiled.
"Let me notify the castle of your arrival." he said. He let me in and ran to the castle. The other guard just looked at me curiously. I smiled at him and walked slowly towards the door to the castle.
"LUCY?" A man, I recognized right away said in surprise and happiness.
"Hello Caspian." I smiled.
