Peter's POV

I was coming home from school. It was finally Friday and I had finished all my homework during free period, so I got to spend the weekend with Edmund and Lucy. I would love to also spend it with Susan, but it was guaranteed that she was going to spend the weekend partying. When I walked into the house I saw Edmund lying on the couch with Lucy sleeping on top of him as he played with her hair. That was weird. They were usually home after me, not before.

"Why are you two home so early" I asked Edmund

"Lucy got sick so she stayed home from school and mum went to go get the doctor to tell us what's wrong with Lucy." He told me

"So why are you here" I said

"because mum didn't want Lucy to be alone while she was gone so I came home from school early" He said like it was the most obvious answer.

I noticed that he was still in his school clothes.

"Do you want me to stay here with Lucy so that you can change out of your uniform" I asked him

"sure" he said

I took Lucy from on top of him, sat down on the couch and put her in my lap while Edmund headed upstairs to change.

She looked paler than usual and her forehead felt hot.

A while later she woke up.

"Peter?" She asked

"it's me" I assured her

"what happened? Where's Edmund?" She asked me

"You're sick and you fell asleep. Edmund's upstairs changing" I told her

I slowly rubbed her forehead trying to lull her back to sleep.

Eventually, Edmund came downstairs.

"Good morning, my queen" Edmund told Lucy when he saw that she was awake

"Ed, we're not in Narnia. You do realize you don't have to call me that here, right?" She told him

"I know" he said, simply

"Lucy, how about you try and get some rest. Mum should be back with the doctor any minute now." I said

"Alright" She replied

I placed her down on the couch and she drifted off to sleep while Edmund and I went to the kitchen to grab a snack. A few minutes after we were done eating, I went to go change, and a few minutes after I had come back downstairs, mum and the doctor arrived. I woke Lucy up and then the doctor did a few tests on her and told us that she had the flu. A few minutes later, the doctor was gone and Edmund and Lucy were once again laying down on the couch the same way they were when I came home, with Lucy asleep and Edmund caressing her hair. Mum had gone to school for a mandatory bake sale that all the parents had to help out at and Susan came home from hanging out with her friends.

"Is that little brat supposed to be my sister!" Susan came in yelling

"What did she do to you?" Edmund asked

"She was supposed to iron this dress for me but she didn't and I looked like a complete idiot in front of my friends!" She told him

"She's sick, Susan! She can't be ironing your dresses!" I scolded

"So she's sick, but she can get better!" Susan shouted. I was surprised that Lucy hadn't woken up with all this yelling going on around her.

"She has the flu, Susan! It's going to take quite a while before she does get any better!" Edmund yelled at her

Susan was silent for a moment. "Fine. See if I care that she doesn't iron my dresses." She said, and with that she stormed upstairs.

We sat in silence for a few minutes before I said "I'll go take Lucy to bed"

"sure" Edmund said

I took Lucy from on top of Edmund and went up the stairs carrying her. I hadn't noticed how big she had gotten until I had to carry her upstairs just now. It was tiring. I went inside her room, put her in bed, and turned to leave.

"Wait, Peter" She said, waking up and noticing that I was leaving her room

I turned around. "What is it Lucy?" I asked her

"Good night, my high king" She told me

"Good night, my little valiant queen" I said as I walked over and kissed her forehead as she drifted back off to sleep.

I went back downstairs to see Edmund.

"How did Lucy get the flu?" I asked him, once I was downstairs. I had been waiting to ask him all day but I wanted it to be at a time when Lucy couldn't hear us.

"I don't know. She probably caught it from someone." He said

"But who?" I said

"That, I do not know" He said

We decided to watch a movie. When it was over, we just sat on the couch for a few minutes until Edmund yawned.

"Tired?" I asked

"A little" he replied

"you should probably go upstairs and head to bed" I told him

"alright" he said and headed towards the stairs.

"Oh, and Peter" He said as he stepped onto the stairs

"Hmmm" I replied

"Don't stay up too late" he told me as he went upstairs

"I won't" I called after him

I sat on the couch for about thirty minutes and then headed to bed knowing that mum would be home soon and she would be upset if she found me still downstairs and awake. I had a dream about Aslan that night. He told me that if Lucy ever had a coughing fit while she was sick, just to rub her back and she would stop coughing in a bit. I slept peacefully for the rest of the night because of the dream that I had. I knew Aslan would watch over Lucy.
