A/N: Okay, I am so sorry for such a long wait for this! I've started college, been hammered with revision, homework and exams, found a new online game (league of legends...) and lots more friends and so little time! This has been sitting on my ipod for months now... It's short and probably bad, but you deserve it. I'm planning on writing a few little little ones, and then a much longer one... Anyway, I hope you enjoy this!

Disclaimer: I do not own Jill, Eustace or the Chronicles Of Narnia. I do, however, own the plotline/idea. This is a non profit take on The Chronicles Of Narnia, where Jill and Eustace confess the love for each other they have but never confessed in the book!

Mine!

"Stop!"

Eustace and Jill were walking from class to their spot behind the gym, when they heard the weak shout. There was the sound of male laughter, and then someone shouted again. Being in one of the top years at the school, Eustace knew almost everyone. The pair turned and saw almost at once what was happening.

A youngish blonde girl was sitting at an outside table, trying to work. A group of four boys, perceived again as Them, were stealing her things and taunting her. One of them laughed, grabbed her pen from her and then threw it at her, hitting her on the forehead.

"Leave me alone!" She cried, putting her hand up to her forehead.

One of the boys nudged the other, laughed then pushed her. She slipped and nearly fell off her chair.

Jill gasped and put her hand over her mouth, grabbing Eustace's arm and looking up at him.

He nodded and walked over to the gang.

"Hey! You leave her alone." He said, menacingly. The girl stared up at him in amazement, and the boys just glared at him.

Eustace glared back, "Go on. Get out of here." He said quietly, but there was a subtle threat in the undertones making the boys look at each other awkwardly, then leave.

"Thank you!" The girl gushed, standing up and grabbing at Eustace's arm.

Surprised, Eustace forced a smile.

"I'm Lilly," She said, smiling widely. "I can't believe you did that for me."

"I hate seeing people being bullied." Eustace shrugged, "I used to get bullied so I know how horrible it is."

"I can't believe you'd ever get bullied, you're so tough." Lilly simpered, dropping back into her chair.

"Not really. I learnt that from N-" He stopped suddenly, about to say Narnia. "Somewhere," He finished.
"You just have to stand up to them."

"Easier said than done," Lilly sighed, "They seem to have it in for me, and I don't know what I've done."

"Well hopefully they won't bother you again." Eustace said, smiling. He saw Jill waving him over from the corner of his eye and added, "I best go. Nice meeting you... Uh..?"

"Lilly." She told him, with a silly laugh.

"Right," He muttered, before he turned and fled.

"Goodness, Scrubb! That was quick!" Jill said, with a laugh. They were sitting with their backs to the gym, feet among the shrubbery. The grass wasn't wet for the first time in ages, so they'd been able to sit down.

"What?" Eustace asked innocently, staring at her while she laughed.

"That girl! C'mon, she was all over you! It was so funny." Jill said, in disbelief. "Are you that oblivious?"

"Obviously." He said, raising an eyebrow at her. "All she did was tell me her name," He defended, shrugging.

"Oh, come on!" Jill said, snorting, "That's what it looks like to you, the guy, but really..." She scoffed. "Who's she kidding?" She added softly.

"What?" Eustace asked, hearing mumbles.

"I said, who's she kidding? You're..." She paused, deliberated, and then changed the word she intended to use. "You," She finished, turning her head to look at him.

"And what's that supposed to mean?" He asked, defensive.

"Well... You're... You're, um..." She blushed scarlet, seemingly at nothing, then said, "Nothing, forget it."

Eustace frowned, deep in thought. They sat in silence for a number of minutes, and then the bell went.

"Nope, can't think of anything. Do tell, Pole." Eustace said as he pushed himself upright.

"I said forget it, okay?" Jill said, brushing down her skirt and walking away.

Eustace caught up quickly, "I want to know. What did you mean by what you said?"

Jill stopped, turned to face him, "I meant -"

"Oh, Eustace!" A voice cried, interrupting Jill. A blonde head bobbed towards them, smiling. "I wanted to thank you again for what you did for me." Lilly said, gazing up at Eustace, seemingly oblivious to Jill's furious glare.

Out of the corner of his eye, Eustace saw Jill's expression, and smiled inside. He'd get it out of her, and he knew just the way.

"That's quite alright, Lilly." Eustace said with false enthusiasm. "In fact, what lesson have you got next? I'll walk you there so you don't see them, if you like. They are awful bullies." His words were spoken in the way you would speak to a child, almost patronisingly, but Lilly didn't notice. She simply beamed at him, her smile wider than anyone's Jill had ever seen before. Her face positively black, she looked angrier than the darkest storm cloud.

How dare she! Jill thought, as she rather abruptly flounced off, head in the air. How dare she do that with MY man! Then she blushed. She didn't care that Eustace wasn't technically hers, she'd always called him that and she always would.

She realised now, as she slowed her angry walk to a slower pace as she thought, that she liked him. And that she liked him liked him.
So I like him, I do. How most inconvenient! That girl better go, or I'll find away to get rid of her! Jill thought, her jealous side flaring up and making her angry again.

"Hey Pole!" Eustace called, "Wait!"

Jill snorted, pushed all thoughts out of her head and marched briskly towards her classroom.

"Slow down!" Eustace said with a laugh, as he drew up along side her.

"Hmph," She snorted again, "Go and walk with Lilly."

"Going to tell me now?" Eustace challenged with a cheeky grin.

"Certainly not." Jill said, snottily. She reached for the door handle in front of her and violently yanked it open.

"Good day, Scrubb."

Eustace spent his next few lessons confused, until he caught up with Jill again.

"Come on Pole, what's up? You don't usually keep things from me." He asked, starting to worry.

However the girl snubbed him, swinging her hair into his face and marching off in the other directing, nose in the air - all very much unlike Jill!

As Jill stormed off, Eustace shrugged. If she didn't want him around, he knew somebody else that would.

Jill was horrified when she watched Eustace walk in Lilly's direction, and she immediately sat down and began to plan.

What can I do that will say to Eustace that I like him and tell Lilly to back off? She thought, chewing on a loose nail. She removed her fingers from her mouth violently, trying to break the habit. She began to nibble her lips instead, and a smile began to spread across her face as she thought of the perfect thing to do.

Leaving her lunch with her friends and her stomach tying itself in knots, Jill crossed the ground towards Eustace.

"Eustace!" She called, but he ignored her. She felt sick with nervousness, but gritted her teeth and strode up to him. She stopped, screwed up all her courage, laid a hand on his arm and said, "There you are, I've been looking for you for so long!"

She then put her other hand against his cheek, pulling his head round to look at her instead of Lilly. Her stomached flipped over in anxiety of what she did next. She leaned forwards, drew his face up to hers, and planted her lips on his, eyes closed.

Eustace inhaled sharply, shocked. Jill's perfect face pressed against his, her perfect nose touching his cheek, her beautiful eyes closed just inches away from his own, and her lips... Her perfect, soft looking lips moving in complete harmony against his own. His eyes drifted closed, and he found himself leaning up into the kiss, moving his lips against hers.

Jill pulled away in surprise when she felt Eustace kiss her back. She certainly hadn't been expecting that!

"Sorry, Lilly," Jill said, in a sweet voice, "But he's mine."
