A/N: Just in case you didn't see the note on my profile, all of my documents were erased, and I got back all of the stuff I was working on, but It's going to be a bit hard for the next few days trying to remember what I had and what I deleted and what not. Also, I'm going to be busy, and School starts next Monday , so my updates might be further apart. Depending on how I can balance my schedule. Anyway, reviews are appreciated. :)

Six:

A knock on his door made him jump as Edmund fixed the collar on his tunic. "Come in," he mutters, silently cursing whoever it was for messing him up again. Jane comes in and sits on his bed. She watches him with an amused look plastered on her face.

"Having trouble?" Edmund's eyes narrow, and Jane can see this in the mirror's reflection.

"No," He mumbles harshly, but Jane just laughs and comes to help him. He tries pushing her away, but it's no use. And anyway, she (and everyone else for that matter) is probably better at this than Edmund. He sighs and looks away as she fixes it. When shes done she smooths out his hair and steps back to admire her work.

"Well, don't you look handsome." Her mouth is in a wide grin, and Edmund glances in the mirror. Then he smiles.

"You really think so?"

"Nope." His smile fades, and she walks away. He glares at her. He didn't even notice how pretty she looked in her dress.

After arriving in the ballroom, and being announced and all of that boring stuff, Edmund finds himself in a corner. He's trying, desperately to get away from May, who's stalking him. Literally. Suddenly he hears someone whisper "Edmund" In his ear. He's hoping it's anyone but May. No such luck. "How are you darling?" He glares and then walks away. "Wait Edmund! Come back!." Now he turns around to face her.

"Need I remind you every time you talk to me that it's KING Edmund?"

While giggling, May manages to get out "Right, sorry King Edmund." He frowns and walks away again. And this time Peter stops May from getting at his brother again.

"Princess! Do you want to dance?"

After looking at Edmund one last time she shrugs. "Of course your majesty." Edmund is watching from a different corner this time.

"Edmund," her breath tickles Edmund's ear, and he jumps. He's expecting May, but it's only Jane. She laughs hard. "Yes! I knew that would get you! Yes, yes, yes!" Edmund hits her shoulder. "Ow, Edmund. Thats no way to treat a princess!" And then she hits him back. He stares at her in shock.

"You can't hit the King!" She smiles.

"Says who?"

"ME. The King!" After sticking her tongue out she hits him again and runs away. He sighs annoyed that shes acting so immature (although, he's more immature than her). Then he runs after her and grabs her wrist-twisting it slightly.

"Oh, Edmund, you bas-"

"Edmund! I was just looking for you." Jane watches as Edmund's flushed face gets pale. And gives her this pleading look before letting go of her wrist and turns around to face May-not even trying to smile.

"Hello..March..er..Princess May.."

"Yes, Hello. Um, hi..June.."

"JANE," Edmund says, a bit angry now.

"Oh...right. Anyway, your highness, would you like to dance?"

"Actually," Jane starts looking at Edmund then back at May. "We were going to dance." Mays face goes from happy to unhappy.

"Oh." She glares as Jane grabs Edmund's hand and leads him more into the crowd of dancers. As they disappear in the crowd Edmund whispers "Thank you so much!" in Jane's ear. She turns her head to face him. Shes smiling wide.

"You owe me Edmund Pevensie." Then they start dancing and he really can't keep his eyes off of Jane.
