14. Kill for Love

*Lucy's Pov*

I left the library with Susan, when we looked at the time and saw we only had an hour. I really, really missed Leo already. He kept
starring at me and wanting to come over to me, he kept wishing me goodbye and kissing me.
It all happened so quickly, when I was walking down the hallway, and we bumbed into each other for the final time.
"Hey" He says polietly.
"Hey" I say and hug him.
"Listen. I need to tell you. I...I love you" He says and kisses me passionately. Of course I kiss back.
"GUARDS!" I hear someone yell. Peter! Oh no!
"Leo" I say worried. Peter barges in and tackles Leo to the floor.
"Leo!" I yell when Susan and Edmund make me come with them away from Leo. James and some other guards/soldiers start to take
Leo away, and all of a sudden were being dragged away from each other.
"Lucy!" Leo yells.
"What are you going to do to him?!" I say worried.
"He's coming with me" Peter says.
"Lucy!" Leo yells.
"Leo!" I scream. I try running through the powerful arms of my brother and my sister, but they wont budge. Leo tries the same, but
they wont budge either.
"Lucy!" He yells. Then that's when it happened so quickly. Leo grabbed a dagger off of one of the guards belt, and fought with James.
They tackled each other, and then I heared a yell of pain.
That wasn't Leo.
That was James.
He lay there, a dagger in his stomach. Everyone gasped.
"Under arrest!" Peter yells in Leo's face. I know he didn't mean to, I know he just overreacted and it was an acciedent. Then Peter
punches Leo in the stomach so he huches over in pain.
"NO!" I scream.
"Lucy!" He says, before the guards take him away and my siblings take me away into another hallway.
"Your mean" I say aggresivly "You are. You really are" I start screaming.
"He murdered sir James Lucy!" Peter yells.
"But he didn't mean to, and I know it!" I shout back.
"What did he mean to do then?" Peter asks me aggresivly.
"He meant to come after me" I reply.
"I saw you kissing again!" Peter yells "I specificly warned you! That idiot and you!"
"That idiot!" I scream "I happen to love that idiot!"
"Well I'm afraid you wont ever see him again unless with my permission!" Peter yells.
"I hate you Peter!" I shout and run off outside where I burst into crying.

*Susan's Pov*

And I was absaloutley shocked at what Lucy said next in the argument with Peter.
"I hate you Peter!" She shouts and runs off outside, where I'm guessing she's now crying. Me and Edmund were jaw dropped, and
Peter just starred blankly at a wall with no emotion on his face.
"Peter..." I say. Peter holds his head in his hands.
"What have I done" He says to himself "Now my very own sister hates me"
"Come on Ed. Let's go find Lu. I think Peter needs some alone time before we get going" I whisper to Edmund and he nods. We
walk silently out in the direction Lucy is.
"I don't do well with girls and their emotions, so I'll just go finish packing" Edmund explains, and I agree, being the one who is
better with girls and emotions.
I watch from a distance when I spot Lucy, alone, crying in the garden bandstand. I walk over to the bandstand and quietly sit down
next to her on the bench inside of it.
"We have to go soon" I say.
"I know" She says inbetween sobs "I just don't understand why they would arrest Leo"
"Well" I sigh "He did kill, or maybe surverly injure James" I point out. She sighs.
"I'm confused. He was going to see me in a week or so" She says.
"Maybe he just...couldn't bear the thought of being without you" I say "Come on. Were leaving in a minute" I add, then we stand up,
she sniffles, LIKE ALOT, and we finally get on the horses and wait for Peter and Edmund.
