Title: But Why?

Author: Rolletti

This story takes place during the Golden Age.

Sorry for the mistakes, something ate all the beta's.

"But Why?"

"I told you why," said Peter, trying his best to keep a stern face in the presence of his cute little sister.

"But I'm almost nine, and I have my very own knife!"

"I know, I was there when it was gifted to you," he said, fighting the smile.

"Do you not think me brave enough? I am you know."

"I have no doubt about that."

"Well why…I too want to help you and Edmund rid our land of the fell beast."

After the battle at Beruna, and the sickish nightmares that haunted Lucy afterwards, Peter vowed to protect her young eyes from such carnage as long as he could.

"Because I love you."

"That doesn't explain it," said Lucy, her arms crossed.

Peter grinned at Lucy's pout and said, "It will someday. Come, if you give me a smile, I will show you a few moves Orius taught me. You can hold Rhindon if you like."

Once again, Lucy Pevensie, Queen of Narnia stole her big brother's heart.

Just a little short that started out as a drabble.

Good? Yes, No?
