Author's Note: Happy freedom everyone! Thank you to forever Lucy and Caspian, LucyFanForever, LM2MM, sip 08, and laurencita12 for all the reviews, alerts and favorites. I now have 50 reviews! Thank you also to my friend Nicole who completely made my day by reading and complimenting all my stories. I have finally figured out what to do with Liliandil! Do not worry. You will figure it out in a few chapters. Now, to the chapter!
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING. Kapeesh?
Edmund POV
After Lucy left, I decided to go back in to see what Liliandil had been about to say. "What was that about?" Susan asked.
"It was nothing Susan." I said, but apparently I was not convincing so before she could say anything else I turned to Liliandil. "I am sorry about that. Before I left you were about to tell me something, what was it?" I asked and she suddenly looked nervous.
"Edmund…" She said and seemed at a loss for words. Then she did something I did not expect, she kissed me. "Susan can you leave us alone?" She directed to my sister. As Susan was leaving, they muttered something that I could not hear and then she left. As soon as she was gone I kissed the girl I had so quickly fallen for as we had gotten to know each other. "You know Edmund; I never really realized how handsome you are." She said and then looked down embarrassed.
"And I hope you know Lili; that I think you are the most beautiful girl I have ever met." I said.
"Really?" She asked.
"Of course. When we got here, I thought Caspian was the biggest idiot because he did not want to marry you. I could not think of anything wrong with you, and I still cannot." I said. She smiled and she kissed me. Kissing her was intoxicating; it was almost if as she ran her fingers through my hair she oozed desire from every pore. After who knows how long, I had to come up for air. "Just fyi, I would have told you in a little while, I was just waiting for her to get a good distance away." I said smiling.
"Well, you still have not told me."She said.
"Lucy is getting married."I said and seeing that this did not bode particularly well with her, I gave her a little kiss and left. When I found Lucy and Caspian, they were being adorable as usual. It did not bother me as much as it normally did, probably because of how good of a mood I was in.
"Hello." I said and they both seemed to notice my presence and seemingly snapped back to reality.
"So what did Liliandil have to say that has kept you for three hours?" She asked, teasing me.
"Three hours, Lucy it has been 20 minutes since I talked to you." I said. It could not have possibly been three hours. That was impossible.
"No Ed, it has been three hours. So I guess she did not really say anything did she?" Lucy asked waiting for me to say what she seemingly already knew. I guess I must have been blushing because she just nodded her head and rolled her eyes at me.
"Lucy, what did I tell about me being able to take care of myself?" I asked.
"Sorry to interrupt this little exchange, but Lucy there is one unpleasant thing that I am afraid you will have to help me with." He said.
"What is it?" She asked.
"I have to introduce you to the council as my fiancée in the morning and they will probably try to eat you alive." He said.
"Be a little optimistic Caspian. If they are worried about Liliandil, I will just tell them that she is probably making out with my brother." She said.
"If you are forgetting Lucy, I am standing right here. Do not talk about me as if I was not." I said.
"Sorry Ed. It was a joke." She said.
"It is ok Lu. Now I will you two to it. See you later." I said with a smirk and walked away. They were going to have a lot of fun tomorrow. NOT!
Author's Note: So, how do you think the Council meeting will go? Tell me in a review! O, and for anyone who cares my poll has now officially been closed. Since it is Christmas break, I will be updating faster. I hope to have this story done by the end of the year.
