A/N: I'm so sorry things have taken me so long. I've been weighed down under school. I felt like Peter would be a bit overwhelmed with everything happening, and only Aslan could help him.
Disclaimer: I don't own this. I thank C.S. Lewis for making a wonderful world for us all to continue to discover. This is to be to the glory of the true Aslan, JESUS CHRIST.
Peter entered the library after talking to Dor. He didn't know what to say.
We are all growing up. I knew this when I became a king, but I feel like everything is passing to quickly. Tumnus in love with Lucy, Edmund in love with Ilonwy, Dor in love with Susan, and I'm… I won't go there. Aslan, what is happening. The world is changing around us. I just want… I don't know what I want. I'm glad that the girls have such good men (and fauns) to take care of them. Aslan, you know I want to take care of Alastriel. Lord, even her name I love, but I strength to care for her. She has her flaws, but not nearly as many as mine. How could I always do what is best for her and for the country. What if those became two different things? What will happen if I die in battle? If we were to be married and she have a child, would she be able to live through child birth. Aslan, please show me the way I am to go. Please protect her. Help me to love her forever. Aslan, I don't think I could ever stop wanting to protect her.
Peter looked down, he hated to feel the tear falling from his eye. He hated to see the symbol of his helplessness splash onto the book on his desk. Then on the page something caught his eye.
"Then why do you doubt? I shall take care of her and I shall use you to do that. You must remember, however, that what is best is not always what she will want. I will shepherd you through the shadow lands and further up and further in. She will only be with you when you follow me. For as both of you grow closer to me you shall grow closer together." Peter recognized the page to be from a history book of Narnia. He read on the next page how Aslan said these words to Swanwhite's husband, the great Ecgetheow, on their wedding day.
Thank you, Aslan. Peter got up and walked speedily from the library. He entered the hospital wing and saw the three that he was looking for. Edmund looked up from watching Ilonwy, waiting for her to wake. Dor shook his head awake from dosing, and Tumnus turned around from the countertop his was working on.
"What is it Peter, you look like Christmas came early?" Edmund asked, before taking a deep breath and standing. He was tired of sitting in the same position, yet he wanted very much to be there when Ilonwy woke.
"I was confused, and Aslan sent me something to help." He showed all the boys who were becoming more and more like men. All of them had the same thought, "Thank You, Aslan, for your guidance."
A/N: Remember I need some serious help with reveiws. Thank you Spangeley Pony, I tried to make this to explain Peter's thoughts better. Thank you all for listening. Please R & R!
