We arrived back at the How just as dawn came in the early morning Sky. I still hadn't seen Edmund Come back the Griffin had yet to be found with Ed, I don't know if I am being Paranoid and they are on their way back now, but I can't stop the feeling that something is not right.
I snap out my thoughts to find Peter and Caspian drawing their swords at one another, yeah that really helps well done boys.
"Stop it!" I yelled causing Peter to glare at me. Right that it's I would be taking too the high and mighty twat. I've had it with him always thinking that he is so much better than everybody else, High King Peter the Magnificent my butt.
I was aware of everything happing around me, Trumpkin who was hurt some time during the raid was healed by Lucy, Caspian stormed off and Peter went to a meeting main chamber in the How, I of course following against the wishes of the Lucy and Susan, but I had wanted to do this for ages.
"Peter I have something to say to you." I said trying to keep my anger in cheek, Peter Brushes me off.
"Later Violet when I care." He humped I felt my hands clench into my palms.
"That is what I want to talk to you about, you and your attitude, if you haven't noticed Things have changed the times have changed, you want everyone to fall in Line for you like when you were High King, but that doesn't happen by names or titles Peter, you have to earn it." I snapped he rolled his eyes before glaring at me.
"You can't tell me what to do Violet, I don't take orders-" I cut him off.
"I know you, don't you couldn't take them In England either, always getting into fights over nothing, Peter I get what this places means to you I really do but in England you aren't a King you are a normal teenager, but you are acting like a stubborn five year." I hissed.
"And what would you know about Narnia Violet this is your first time here, and what would you care about how I act?" He hissed back, I knew that Lucy and Susan were watching yet I didn't care he need to serious reality check.
"Oh believe me, All Mighty one I don't care about what you do or how you act, I care about how this affects your family, They need you and look up to you. I can't speak for your sisters, but I know for a fact that what you are doing is hurting Edmund." I snap
"And what do you know about Edmund? You think you know him but you don't." He growled at me
"I know him better than you do, I don't brush him aside when he was trying to help me! I tell him thanks." I snap, I guess I stuck a nerve or something because a smacking sound fills the chamber and I feel my left check burn, I stare at Peter in a blank daze of shock. Before recovering and looking at Peter.
"See? Now that's what I mean, going around hitting girls who annoy you, very kingly." I hiss before walking out the How, and going out into the forest.
I walk in an angry storm when I bump into see something in the far, at first I think it's a Talmarine, but as it got closer I noticed the familiar black hair, freckled skin and chocolate eyes. I freeze a smiled forming on my lips I think it went all the way to my eyes.
"EDMUND!!" I screamed running towards his jumping in his arms. Wrapping my arms around his neck, his wrapping around my waist in an instant, pulling me to his chest and I wouldn't want it another way.
"Thank Aslan your safe." He muttered into my hair, we were the same age, but he was so much taller than me. I nuzzled my face into his neck taking the smell of him.
"Your one to talk I thought something awful had happened to you." I whispered back, my voice broke half way through that sentence, the mere thought of him getting hurt was enough to draw him to tears. He pulled away from me just enough for him to look in my eyes, but sadly they found something else, the mark Peter left.
"But it seems that I have more reason to be afraid for you, Vi what happened?" Okay what do I do here? To I lie and say it was a Talmarine or do I tell him that Peter did it. I can't lie to him he'll find out how it was, if not from me then from one of his sisters. I let out a sigh and look him in the eyes moving my hands to his checks caressing the soft skin under them.
"Peter and I got into a fight." I whispered softly, I wanted to break the gaze I held with him, I didn't want to see the anger that built in them, the anger I know would be at Peter when I started it.
"So he hit you?" Edmund growled, oh Aslan.
"It was my fault I started it." I whispered still stroking his checks try to calm him down.
"But that doesn't mean he can hit you, Violet, now please tell me everything that happened." So I told him, everything that went down between Peter and me. And needless to say he was not happy with his older brother.
We made our way to the how, and made the way down to the stone table. Edmund froze in the doorway; I look at his line of vision, a werewolf, that creepy Dwarf and a really ugly Hag, and some chick in a block of ice . . . wait a minute.
"Ed is that who I think it is?"I whisper all I got for a reply was a short nod from him; that was the white Witch, if I was in Edmunds place I would be running by now. Ed grabbed my hand and gave it a squeeze before pulling me into the room and towards the Witch, The Werewolf saw us and charged, Edmund got him in a quick slash across the chest and it was dead, We saw Caspian in a circle, and Peter throwing the Hag into a rock killing the thing,
My eyes glued to Peter, as he pushed Caspian out of the way, and pointed his sword at her. She said something to him, I don't know what I wasn't really listen but I do know that after a pause he lowered his sword, Edmund growled in front of me, I was scared of him for a minute, but got over it as he pulled us right up beside the back of the Platform the Witch was on he looked at me.
"Cover your head." He whispered, I nodded and pulled him down for a kiss, it was a quick peck on the lips, but it was amazing none the less. He walked up behind the Witch and pulled out his sword, I cover my head with my arms knowing what he was going to do, I closed my eyes as I heard the sound of sword breaking ice, then Ice shattering, I looked up at Edmund who was staring coldly at Peter, For both hitting me and for almost freeing the one person who he truly hates.
"I know," Edmund said in a dead voice, I hated it coming from him. "You had it shorted." He finished walking back towards me, I saw Peter Flinch a little, I think it's finally hitting home. Ed walked up to me and I wrapped my arms around his waist, one of his snaked around my neck pulling me closer to him.
We walked up to the top of the How looking out, I noticed Ed's face, it looked pained, and I hated it I wanted nothing more that to take that pain away but I have no idea how. Then it hit.
Ed was sitting with his back against the wall of the How I moved and sat beside him, my hand stroking through his soft hair.
He looked at me and opened his arms, willing me to fall in them, which I was happy to do. I lay my head on his shoulder and his head on mine. One of his arms wrapped tightly around my waist, I moved my hand over his and stroked the skin.
We sat in silence for a while, until the midmorning sun was in the sky. But neither of us wanted to move, we just sat cuddling on the Grass on the ledge of the How. I sighed and snuggled into his neck more. I heard him chuckle a little.
"You're in a loving mood this morning Violet." Ed whispered to me kissing the top of my head.
"Can't help it Ed you're warm." I said smiling.
"You're just like a cat, my Kitten." He said, I grinned, he has called me, VI, Vivy and now Kitten? I have to say that was the cutest. I moved my head from his shoulder to smile at him.
"Now who's in the loving mood?" I tease rubbing my nose against his. "And besides if I'm a Kitten then you're a Bear." I said remembering the Bear in the How, he is very sweet.
"How am I Bear, Kitten?" Oh Aslan here we go with the pet names.
"You're big, strong, fierce, and very cuddly."I told him putting my head back on his shoulder; he of course was smiling like a madman.
"So this is it, we have Pet names for each other?" he laughed, I grin.
"I guess we do." I said the laughed. "You realise that half the time now we act like they do in the films." I said he smiled and kissed my hair again.
"That's true love for you Kitten." He said, okay Violet you can do this just tell him, just say it can't be that bad, that worst that will happen is that he's not ready to say it back.
"Ed, I love you." I whispered, before looking at him, his eyes held nothing except love and happiness.
"Oh Aslan, you have no idea how long I've wanted to hear you say that. I love you too Kitten." I felt my Heart fly, Oh my, he loves me! "You're right Kitten we do sound like a Romance Movie." He said looking out over the Horizon in awe.
"That's True love Bear." I said mocking him lightly.
"You know, I never would have thought I'd fall for my best friend, But I am so happy I did." He whispered pressing his check against my hair, lord we were so in-love it was almost sickening.
"Ed, what took you so long in getting back from the Raid? The griffin was coming to get you, why did it take so long?" I asked, I felt Edmund tighten his hold on me, not that I minded whenever I was around Edmund he made me feel safe.
"I was held back, I was caught for a while before I got out, it was it was nothing serious, just a first timer wanting to make a name for himself, don't worry though I took care of him." Edmund told me, I nodded wrapping my arms tighter around him. Then I noticed something, it looked like an army. . . . Oh no.
I looked at Ed, he was seeing the same thing it was the Telmarines, it had to be.
"C'mon Kitten, we have to tell Pete."
Another Cliff-hanger, I am evil am I not? This will be the last update of the year, you trying having kids, and I include Kevin to that, plus my entire family.
Merry Christmas everyone, all the best for 2010
