Sadly, none of you guessed the voice correctly. It was Edmund.

Edmund's POV

Once the pinching stopped, I looked on both sides of me to both of my sisters. "O, this I going to be fun." I said and apparently somebody heard me because the root of all of my family's emotional problems was now walking towards us.

"Edmund! It's so good to see you." He said and he hugged me. Lucy practically jumped out of her skin and ran up to hug him. I rolled my eyes, but it was really good to see her smiling again.

"Hay Lucy, how old are you now?" He asked with a smile so big it could have swallowed the moon.

"I'm seventeen." She answered, some of the smile gone from her face. Caspian looked like he was about to say something but then he saw Susan. For a moment he just stared. I really do not think he knew what to say. He was nervous, so Susan, being Susan, said something first.

"Hey stranger, you do remember me right?" She said. O great. It can be so nauseating when she is shamelessly flirting with someone, but sadly it usually works. I shot Lucy a discreet look of sympathy.

"How could I ever forget you?" He said and I inwardly groaned. Before me and LUcy both decided to hurl, I decided to step in.

"So Caspian, what was the meeting about?" I asked. Lucy didn't say anything, but her body visibly relaxed and she shot me a look of thanks.

"Well, basically I have three weeks to get married. The council tried to hide it behind the mist of my leadership abilities and a load of politics, but that's basically what it came down to." He said and he sounded ticked.

"What about that girl that we met on that island, the blonde one?" I asked.

"That is the person they have arranged for me to marry if I fail to meet their requirements." He said.

"You make that seem like it's a bad thing." I said cocking an eyebrow. I mean that girl was beautiful! I really could not imagine Caspian marrying her being a bad thing, not for him anyway.

"Don't look at me like I'm an idiot Edmund. Yes, she is beautiful but she is also a snob. She is very self entitled and thinks that just because she is beautiful she can get whatever she wants." I swear I saw Susan visibly cringe. This might not be so bad after all.

"Ok then, what are you planning to do about it?" I asked. He opened his mouth to say something when, all of the sudden, something began to grow on the big rock we were standing by and I saw both of my sister's facial expressions change.

Author's note: Yay, cliffy. A reminder that I still need a Beta and REVIEW!
