As Edmund was walking around to find a quiet spot, he didn't notice a girl, Astra, walking towards him. It seemed she didn't notice Ed either because they managed to bump into each other, and they landed in a very awkward position; Astra lying on the ground with Edmund on top of her. Thank god no one had noticed!
"Oh, I'm so sorry milady, I wasn't looking where I was going, here," and Edmund held out a hand to help the young woman up.
"Oh no you're quite alright, it was my fault, I was daydreaming."
"Daydreaming about what? Might I ask?" questioned Edmund cheekily.
Astra blushed, "Nothing in particular. Astra Greenleaf," she introduced herself.
"Well met Lady Astra, Edmund Pevensie." He returned.
She paled, "As in King Edmund?"
Edmund groaned, he had hoped she wouldn't have made the connection.
"Yes, but just call me Edmund. Anyway I must be getting back to my siblings, don't want them to think I've been kidnapped or something."
"Okay, it was nice to meet you." Astra replied.
"Will I be seeing you later?" Edmund asked.
"I expect so, I will be staying here for the next couple of weeks."
"Then, till we meet again Lady Astra." And with that he walked back into the throng of dancing and drinking creatures.
Astra sighed as she made her way back to her Father, and during the rest of the festival, she couldn't seem to get Edmund Pevensie out of her head.
