First Fanfiction so be nice(ish) and defiantly leave criticism (which I supposed can be good or bad…?). Dedicated to all my friends, with whom I went frolicking in the woods, screaming "For Narnia, and for Aslan!"
NA: I do not own anything even related to Narnia and if I did I would be dating Edmund. Let's all take a minute and thank C.S. Lewis. Me: THANKS SO MUCH! I LOVE EDMUND!
Set after Prince Caspian
Chapter 1: If you like…?
Edmund POV
I must get to the Metro quick. If Peter, Susan, and Lucy leave me by myself again, there will be havoc in the Penvesie household.
In my hurry, I suppose I wasn't paying any attention. I was trying to get rid of a hangnail when I tripped over someone's heels. Hearing a loud 'oomph' I immensely hoped it wasn't Jacob from my school. I would have a black eye within minutes. In London, no one cares if you are a king in Narnia.
"Watch it!" Hearing this familiar voice, I sighed within.
"Sorry Luce."
"Don't apologize to me Ed! You knocked over Jessica!" I saw my younger sister Lucy help up a dark brown hair girl.
"Here," I said, picking up some of her school books which fell out of her bag, "Sorry."
"Thanks," she replied, shaking her head to move a piece of hair stuck between her eyes. She stared at me, nodding. "So your the infamous Edmund. Luce told me lots about you."
"Good or bad things?"
"Interesting things." I glared down Lucy. She blushed, then dragged Jessica down the street by her elbow.
What was that about? Interesting things? I don't even have a bloody clue of what to think of that.
For the first time in three days, I wasn't forgotten at the Metro. However, Lucy's friend was riding on the train with us.
Whispering to Peter I asked, "Why is she here?"
"Lucy's got a project with her. Something that has to do with writing a script."
"Right then."
Jessica kept talking back and forth with my sister. Talking about France, which I could care less about, until I heard the words 'Aslan' and 'Lion'.
"What?" I asked them, who were just sitting in front of me.
"What about what?" Jessica asked snidely.
"You said…Aslan," my voice dropped down to a whisper at the last word.
"Yes, am I not allowed to tell Luce about my cat, who is called Aslan for your information." Jessica glared at me hard. I was so happy when the train stopped at our station.
Jessica POV
I would be so happy when I got to Lucy's. It was quite hard to keep up my sarcastic attitude when I was practically melting. Edmund…he is quite…handsome. It took an effort to tell Lucy about my small crush about him. Mark that, it's not even slightly small. But compared to the secret Luce told me about Narnia, I supposed it's barely comparable. After her story, I was dying to visit the land. Especially if Ed was king there, not that part surprised me.
"Luce, what do you want to write about? I hate how much work Miss Tyler give to us?" We were safely inside her room, where I was free to be myself.
"I was thinking something along the lines of a romance play."
"I was hoping for that."
Luce and I worked hard about Adam and Claire's tragic love life. I felt like I put a bit of how I felt about Edmund in there to.
There was a knock at the door and Edmund appeared. I quickly put on my mask I wore for the world.
"Your mum's here for you Jessica."
"Thanks. Bye Luce."
Collecting my school things, I left her room, Edmund walking down the stairs with me.
"Good luck on the story."
"Mmhm. Try not to trip on anyone again." I raised my eyebrows at his face. It looked like he was struggling between emotion, creating a very funny face.
My mum was waiting in their hall.
"Bye Ed. Good luck with your problems." Waving I left with my mum.
"Who was that sweetheart?"
"Edmund. Lucy's older brother."
"Oh. Well then, let's be off. Your dad, I expect is coming soon."
Edmund POV
When the door shut in my face, I had the urge to strangle Jessica. And kiss her. What the bloody hell is happening to me!
Authors Note!
(Read if you like….I would if I was you!)
Okay. Was it horrible? Please comment. Jessica is a character of my own making, more or less based on me. Is Ed or Luce OOC? Please, please comment and then I'll and be your best friend! I LOVE CARROT CAKE!
