The Only Thing I Have:
As Susan was looking over Veronica to make sure she suffered no serious cuts or bruises, Mrs. Pevensie told Peter to explain everything that happened when he ran into the house.
-" I ran in, told them to get down, There was a blast from the bomb, Veronica was knocked out on the sofa and Edmund was a few feet away from me.."
-"Well She's going to be all right," Susan said letting out a sigh of relief.
-"Are you sure dear?" said Mrs.Pevensie now looking at her daughter.
-"Yes Mum, she has a pulse and doesn't seem to have any injurys"
Mrs.Pevensie Looked at the her daughter, and then to the brown headed girl who laid unconscious on the cot. She Stared at her in deep thoughts, then let out a sigh.
-"I think its time we All went to bed" she said.
Soon after they were all fast asleep. Veronica Awoke with a start " …Snow!"
She looked around to see she was in the cellar with the Pevensies. She stared at Edmund who was sleeping in the corner, making sure he was all right she then turned to Lucy who had a smile on her face while she dreamt and then to Susan who seemed to be stressed in her dream… "She's Probably taking a test" murmured Veronica who chuckled softly. She then turned to Peter who had his head resting on the wall, her eyes rested on the blonde trying to read his facial expression as to what type of dream he had, but in the end she could never read it.. She smiled at him and then turned her head to the wall..
She Sat on the cot and leaned her back against the wall. Her Brown hair was strait going down but at the end it began to curl. She had Eyes Of hazel Green, and lips the color of a pink rose petal. Her hair rested on the base of her shoulder as she thought of the day she arrived at the Pevensies…..
"Helen, I can't Thank you enough for taking care of veronica for me." Replied Robert.
"Don't Worry, It's not a problem. Just be careful and look After My Husband!" replied Helen Pevensie. Veronica stood next to her father while the two adults talked. "Well, It is time.," said Robert as he looked to the clock. He then turned to Veronica, "Be careful, and be safe. I'll Come for you the moment I am released.." Veronica Nodded and hugged her father in a tight embrace as tears rolled down her face she replied softly "Please..Be careful…" Mrs.Pevensie Watched In silenced as the two hugged.. " Robert.. It be best if you go now.." Said Helen. Robert Nodded as a approval, He walked down the steps of the Pevensies Porch and walked into the cab, and drove off.."
" Peter, Susan, Edmund, Lucy, Come down here, there is someone I would like you to meet." Shouted Mrs.Pevensie. The four kids walked down stairs and stared at Veronica.
" Veronica!" Shouted Susan as she ran and hugged her friend… " I have not seen you for sometime!"
"Im sorry, I've been busy" as she hugged her friend. As soon as the girls finished hugging she gave Lucy, Edmund (Although he hated it) and Peter A hug. When she finished hugging peter she stared into his blue eyes as if drifting into a sea………
" Veronica." Said Peter
"Veronica?" replied Peter again. She jumped the second time she heard it and turned to Peter who was sitting on the side of the bed.
-" Oh, Peter you gave me a fright" replied Veronica
-"I'm Sorry, I just saw you awake and you seemed to be just staring at the wall for the longest time." Replied Peter Apologetically. She turned to him and looked into his eyes.
She stared the longest time at them and then turned away blushing,
-" I'm sorry I worried you," She said trying to cover up the fact that she was blushing but also meant it." Peter made a boyish grin and then starting stroking her hair, as if lost in thought. After Realizing what he was doing, he turned away blushing deeper than Veronicas blush.
-" Um… How are you doing" Peter said trying to distract her from noticing.
-" I'm doing Fine, Thank You Peter." She replied, and then gave him a kiss on the cheek.
-"For What?"
-"For saving me." She replied. She then started to fumble with her golden heart locket.
-"You Know, Father always said the day I was able to open it, it would be the day something amazing happened…" She said deep in thought and then chuckled " Hah, when is something Amazing ever going to happen to me" with that she through the locket to the other side of the wall. Peter saw the locket fall and reached over to pick it up.
-"You just got be patient and have faith.." he said trying to reassure her, He grabbed her hand and slowly put the locket in it. He closed the hand gently staring into her eyes.
-"Trust Me." He said softly
She stared back into his eyes for the longest time they ever knew. He leaned in closer when…
CLICKThey both looked down to see the locket opened. They both stared wide-eyed .She slowly picked up the locket and to her surprise, the locket held a picture of her mother and father. She stared at the sight of the happy couple. Tears began to form in her eyes so she shut the locket and turned…
-"Peter?" she saw him curled next to the steps of the door, deep in sleep.
She got up and took a blanket and placed it over him, he stirred a little in his sleep, than relaxed.. She crouched down and rubbed her hand gently across his cheek..
-"Thank You." She whispered and placed the locket in his hands…
She walked back and when to a deep sleep dreaming of a Lion and a Unicorn…..
