Author's Note: This chapter's short and sweet and mostly likely not very good. So if you hate it..I'm really sorry.

Another Note: I really don't want to confuse anyone with the ages and everything, so, here's a timeline of my story.

The Pevensie children have been living in Narnia for 5 years.

Peter: 18

Susan: 17

Aurora: 17(who's not a Pevensie, but you may want to know her age)

Edmund: 15

Lucy: 13

I got the initial ages from My name is not C.S. Lewis.

The Library

"Today marks the one week anniversary of my stay here in Narnia. I have found grace and beauty in the country and all of its people. The Kings and Queens have treated Lune and I very kindly, embracing us as if we were their own kin. They have even insisted that we refer to themby their first names. Each of them has their own unique personality. Lucy, the youngest, is very vibrant and energetic. This morning, she barged into my room and jumped on my bed until I woke up, so that she could invite me to 'exclusive', as she called it, girls only breakfast with Susan and herself. Edmund is quite different. He's more reserved and spends time alone or with the other men in the castle. He finds his younger sister annoying and his older siblings too bossy at times. I think it's because ofhis age. He's fifteen and in the stage between boyhood and manhood. The age where you believe that you know every thing about everything so he can make himself look more impressive in front of other people, especially the young ladies. Susan is the gentlest being I have come across in all of the lands. I guess that's why she was crowned 'Queen Susan the Gentle' by the Great Lion. She and I have become the best of friends, spending many hours together on the archery range or walking along the beach, something we do almost daily. And Peter…."

She stared at the glistening black ink. Peter. She had avoided him for the past week, ever since the incident in the courtyard. Luckily, the only times she had seen him were atmeal times where she tried her hardest not to make eye contact. But, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't help but casually glance at him. And amazingly, she found him staring at her. He would always smile a little when he noticed she was looking and she would blush and look back down at her plate. Everything about him felt safe. In his eyes she found a warm hiding place that protected her from everything, her bottled up emotion, her pain.

Aurora closed her journal. She would finish writing later. She decided to escape from her thoughts about Peter and go to her other favorite room in the entire castle, the library. It had become like a secret safe haven for when she wanted to get away from her room and still be alone. She found herself in it one day, wrapped up in one of its many books. She asked Susan about it and she said that barely anyone ever used it that she knew of. Her conformation assured Aurora that she would notbe disturbed, especiallynot byPeter. Aurora sat down on the small red couch and opened the book she had been reading the past few days. She read page after page, suddenly becoming wrapped in its words. The door quietly creaked open. Aurora looked up and found Peter standing in the doorway.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't know anyone was in here. I'll leave you alone." He apologized quickly.

"No, I'll go." She protested, standing up and making her way towards the door.

"No, stay." Peter exclaimed, placing his hand on hers on the doorknob. She raised her head and looked up into his eyes.

"There's no point if we both leave." He said with a smile.

Aurora nodded. There was no reason to argue with him. She went back over to the couch and opened her book. Peter sat down at the desk in front of her and began scratching noisily on a piece of parchment. They sat like that for several minutes. Aurora reread the same sentence many times, glancing up every so often. Peter never looked up. After a few minutes, he broke the silence.
"What are you reading?" he asked, lifting his head

"Dances of the Faun." Aurora answered. She was now too nervous to look up. She didn't care if it was rude, she was too nervous to remember the princess lessons she was taught.

He looked back down at his paper.

"Are you scared of me?"

The questioned shocked Aurora enough to raise her head from her book.

"No, you don't scare me."

"But the other day in the courtyard, did I scare you then."

"No, you didn't scare me. Startled me yes, but you never scared me. " She lied. It wasn't all a lied though. He had startled her. But he scared her more. Scared of how comfortable he made her feel.

"I'm sorry I startled you." He said. You could hear the sincerity in his voice.

She gave him an innocent smile.

"You didn't mean too."

"I am sorry though. I hope I didn't ruin your book."

"You didn't, it's fine."

" What were you reading?"

" Actually, I wasn't. It was my journal."

"So you write?"

"Isuppose you could say that."

She looked back down at her book, frequently glancing up at him He was staring at her, making her feel more nervous.

"You know, you still haven't answered my question." He said.

Aurora looked back up at him concerned.

"Will you go riding with me tomorrow afternoon?"

There was no way she could run this time. So she decided answered him the way she wanted to the first time.

"Yes."
