(A/N: Lots of fluff in this chapter, especially best friend bonding between Lucy and Jaina. I really enjoyed writing this chapter for this very reason, so I hope you all like it. Oh and I must give yet another special credit to my muse, editior, and partner in crime, Bobbius Maximus, for his hilarious impressions and sound effects whenever we read this story together. Thanks for a good laugh as always, Bobbius Maximus.)

In late evening

"Well, that was lovely of our friends to lend us these nightclothes." Susan said as she and her siblings were hanging out in the boys' chambers that night.

"Yes, it was. I am amazed that Jaina still had this old nightdress of hers." Lucy said as she fingered the sleeve of the nightdress she was wearing.

Everyone nodded in agreement with her. So far, they had really enjoyed the hospitality given to them here in the temple. Lucy sighed as she leaned back against the pillows, then suddenly she started snickering as if she remembered something.

"What is it, Lu?" Peter asked.

"Well Peter, let's just say that Edmund's been picking on me so much he finally got a taste of his own medicine today." Lucy said, causing Peter and Susan to snicker along with her and Edmund getting a steamed look on his face.

"Oh stuff it, Lucy! I knew perfectly well what I was doing!" Edmund exclaimed.

"Oh you knew what you were doing, Ed. You just couldn't do anything about it." Susan replied, causing even more laughter from her and the other two.

Edmund just sneered at his siblings as he sat sulking on the edge of the bed. He really wished they would just give it a rest and leave him alone. After the laughter died down, though, the conversation turned a little serious when Peter and Susan realized that there was something they needed to talk to Lucy about.

"Lu, did you know Jaina thought of you as her little sister?" Peter asked.

"Oh…well…I guess not. Not until she said that earlier. But I like it, though." Lucy replied.

"She's your best friend, of course you should have known." Edmund said.

"Ed! Didn't you learn anything from earlier?" Peter snapped.

"Yes, DAD." Edmund snapped.

Peter and Susan shot him an evil glare, and then turned back to Lucy as Susan asked her "Well, do you think of her as your big sister?"

Lucy's cheeks turned bright red at Susan's question. She did indeed think of Jaina as her big sister, but was too embarrassed to admit it. Noticing his sister's face turning red, Peter firmly took her hand as he talked to her.

"Hey, it's perfectly ok if you do." Peter said.

"Well…yes. I do think of her like that. But I already have a big sister." Lucy said as she looked at Susan.

"Think of it this way, now you have two brothers and two sisters who love you a lot." Susan said.

"Yeah, Lu. And Jaina now has a little sister which she's never had before." Peter added.

Lucy's face brightened up as she flung her arms around Peter and Susan, pulling them into one of her famous Lucy hugs. Even Edmund joined in the group sibling hug. He did indeed love his little sister despite the fact he constantly teased her, he thought of it as his own special way of showing his love for Lucy.

"Everyone loves me!" Lucy squealed once the group hug was released.

"I guess so, Lu. You're a lovable person." Peter replied.

Lucy giggled a little at Peter's comment. He always knew how to make her smile, it was like a special gift that he had. Then Lucy got a stunned look on her face as if she suddenly remembered something important.

"Oh no!" she exclaimed.

"What now, Lu?" Peter asked.

"I never gave Jaina her Christmas present!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Well, do you have it with you?" Edmund asked.

"Yes, Ed. It's in my dress pocket." Lucy replied.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Go get it and give it to her." Edmund said.

Lucy leapt off the bed and ran out into the hallway towards her room that she was sharing with Susan. She found her dress draped over a chair, reached into the pocket, and pulled out the small present that she had hoped to give Jaina one day.

"I hope she likes this." Lucy whispered to herself as she ran back into the hallway.

She soon realized that she had no idea where Jaina's room was and panicked a little. Thankfully, she noticed C-3PO standing in a corner deactivated and hoped he could help her.

"Um, excuse me sir." Lucy said as she tapped C-3PO's shoulder and he immediately started up and began talking.

"Oh, greetings Queen Lucy. How may I be of service to you this evening?" C-3PO asked.

"Could you please tell me where Jaina's quarters are?" Lucy asked.

"I most certainly can. Mistress Jaina's quarters are the third door on your right." C-3PO replied.

"Thank you very much, sir." Lucy said as she walked in the direction of Jaina's room.

Inside Jaina's room

Jaina was settled back against her pillows, twirling her Padawan braid around her finger. Even though it was late evening, she couldn't sleep. All she could think about how happy she was that she and her brothers got to be reunited with their old Narnian friends and if they would enjoy their stay on Yavin, however long it turned out to be.

She was soon snapped out of her thoughts by a knock on the door and a quiet voice asking "Jaina, are you there?"

"Lucy?" Jaina asked as she got off her bed and walked to the door.

She opened it to reveal a nervous, but smiling Lucy who promptly flung her arms around Jaina's waist for another Lucy hug. As always, Jaina gratefully returned her best friend's hug as she ushered Lucy into her room to sit on her bed so they could talk.

"I missed you so much, Jaina." Lucy said to start things off.

"I know you did, and I missed you so much as well." Jaina replied.

"Oh, now did you?" Lucy said, giggling and putting her hands on her hips in fake seriousness.

"Of course I did, silly. We're best friends." Jaina said and playfully stuck out her tongue at Lucy which caused her to burst out laughing.

"You're funny, Jaina." Lucy replied, still giggling.

"Oh I know, I like being funny." Jaina replied as she reached over and playfully tickled Lucy under her chin.

Lucy shrieked with laughter and fell backwards on the bed as she swatted away Jaina's hand. It felt so wonderful to spend some time with her best friend again and it sure brought back memories of when they first met in Narnia. But Lucy was curious about one thing.

"Jaina, do you honestly think of me as your little sister?" Lucy asked.

"Oh…well…yes I do. You know how close we are, in fact we're inseparable. Plus I didn't have any sisters until I met you, now I have one." Jaina said as she tweaked Lucy on her nose.

"But what about Susan? Aren't you friends with her too?" Lucy asked.

"Of course I am. Susan and I are great friends. But I don't have the special relationship with her like I do with you." Jaina replied.

"Yes, that's true! I like being your special friend, Jaina!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Same here, Lucy." Jaina replied.

Lucy put on one of her famous smiles at Jaina's comment. She was indeed thrilled at the fact that she had Jaina as her special best friend, just like Mr. Tumnus was her special Narnian friend. Then remembering the reason why she came in here in the first place, Lucy reached into her nightgown pocket for the gift she wanted to give Jaina.

"Jaina, have you ever heard of a holiday called Christmas?" Lucy asked.

"Christmas? What would that be?" Jaina asked.

"Oh it's such a fun holiday! It's a day where family and friends get together to exchange gifts." Lucy replied.

"That does sound like a lot of fun." Jaina said.

"It is, I love Christmas. In fact, this is your Christmas present." Lucy said and pressed something into Jaina's hand.

Jaina looked into her hand and was amazed at what Lucy had given her. It was a small figurine of a beautiful white bird and the tips of its wings were decorated in some sort of sparkles. Jaina also noticed an engraving on each of the bird's wings, it was her name on one wing and Lucy's name on the other one.

"This is so pretty, Lucy. Thank you so much." Jaina finally said.

"You're welcome, Jaina. That's a turtledove ornament." Lucy said.

"A turtledove? What's a turtledove?" Jaina asked.

"It's a bird that symbolizes eternal friendship between two people. I have a turtledove ornament myself." Lucy said.

"You mean…?" Jaina started to ask as a heartfelt tear began to form in her eye.

"As long as we each have our turtledoves, we'll be best friends forever." Lucy replied, taking Jaina's hand.

"Do you really mean it?" Jaina asked, sounding choked up by now.

"Of course I do. You're my best friend from Yavin and I wouldn't give this turtledove to anyone but you. " Lucy said.

Jaina put her other hand to her mouth as she got even more tearful. Lucy really did love her like a big sister and missed her terribly during the 5 months Narnia time they had been separated. Teary eyed with happiness, Jaina grabbed Lucy and pulled her into a tight, suffocating hug as she squeezed her arms around her. Lucy was quite surprised as she was normally the one to spring the suffocating hug on Jaina.

"Hey, I'm supposed to do that!" Lucy exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around Jaina.

"Well, now it's my turn." Jaina said as both girls started laughing again, Jaina through her happy tears.

"I love you so much, Jaina. I'm so glad you're my friend." Lucy said.

"And I love you too, Lucy. Remember, I'll always think of you as my little sister." Jaina replied.

Both girls finally released themselves from the tight hug and sat on the bed smiling. They really needed this alone time to talk to each other and were very grateful that they got it.

"Lucy, time for bed." Susan called out from the hall. Jaina walked over to her door and opened it to reveal Susan standing outside waiting for Lucy.

"Awww, do I have to go?" Lucy whined.

"Would you rather have Peter come in here and carry you to bed, Lu?" Susan asked.

"Allright, I'll go." Lucy said and quietly walked into the hall while sulking.

"Hey Lu, I'll still be here in the morning. In fact, you can sit next to me at breakfast." Jaina called out after her.

Lucy turned around and smiled at Jaina, who gave her a small wink in return. Susan couldn't help but smile herself as she watched her little sister laugh and scamper back down the hall towards their room.

"So, what where you two talking about?" she asked Jaina.

"About how we'll be best friends forever." Jaina replied and held out her turtledove ornament to show Susan.

"I see she gave you your Christmas present." Susan said.

"Oh yes, I love it a lot. Lucy told me the significance of it too, which I think is so sweet." Jaina said.

"That's Lucy for you, always trying to make people feel good." Susan said.

"Listen Susan, if my friendship with your sister is annoying you and your brothers, I'll stop. Edmund told me about how Lucy wouldn't stop talking about me during the 5 months Narnia time I was gone and I'm sorry to put you three through that." Jaina said.

"Oh no, no, no. It's not your fault. In fact, my brothers and I are very happy Lucy has a new human friend." Susan said as she sat down in the chair in Jaina's room.

"What do you mean? Aren't there any other humans in Narnia?" Jaina asked.

"No there isn't, before you and your brothers arrived my family and I were the only humans living there. So when you and Lucy starting getting close, we felt happy that she made a new friend. It was getting quite lonely for her and the rest of us without any other human contact." Susan said.

"Oh really? Well, that makes me feel better. Of course, you know that we're good friends as well." Jaina said.

"I know that, who else can I talk logically too?" Susan asked.

Both girls started laughing as it was true both of them could have logical, intelligent conversations as Susan had put it. Although Jaina didn't have the special relationship with Susan like she did with Lucy, she still felt like a close friend to her as they had a lot in common.

"So please don't worry about your friendship with Lucy, as long as she's happy that is what's most important to me, Peter, and Edmund." Susan said.

Jaina smiled at Susan as she stepped out of her room. It was good to know that she was making Lucy happy with their close friendship and that it was all that mattered to her siblings.

As Susan made her way towards her room, she noticed Anakin was standing in the hallway whispering something to C-3PO. But when they saw Susan coming towards them, they quickly stopped talking and started acting casual. This made Susan really curious so she decided to find out what was going on.

"Care to tell me what you two are discussing?" she said.

"It's a surprise, Susan. You'll find out what it is in the morning." Anakin replied.
