A/N I'm so sorry that I've been gone so long, and I really have no excuse. But I'm back now! I was rereading the previous chapters, and found a mistake I'd like to fix though, the Pevensie's have been back in England for 2 years instead of 1, I hope this isn't confusing! I hope you enjoy the chapter!
Lucy walked out of her room and was met by Susan, who wore a light blue capped sleeve dress with a scooped neckline. "You look wonderful Su!" Exclaimed Lucy
"Thank you Lucy!" Susan replied cheerfully
The girls linked arms and walked into the sitting room together, where Peter was sitting one couch, with Caspian and Edmund on the other. the three of them were already eating some of the cookies, and chatting merrily.
Susan sat next to Peter, and Lucy sat down on the other side of Caspian
"Well, Look who finally decided to join us!" Joked Edmund.
"Don't worry," said Caspian "we haven't discussed anything important yet" he smiled at Lucy
"Good! Because if you had you'd be in trouble!" Susan jokingly responded
"Before we get on to catching up and what not, Caspian and I need to tell you something" Lucy stated as Caspian took her hand and squeezed it lightly
"Before you four left, I had asked Lucy if she would like to court me, and she had said yes." Caspian started and Lucy finished for him "We had to leave the next day, so we never got the chance too then, but we've decided to court now." They sat there anxiously awaiting the reply from her siblings
Susan was the first to respond "I'm so happy for you!" She said
Peter was worried that they would have to leave not to long from now, but he simply said that he was happy for them too, and Edmund agreed with them
"I'm glad you're all good with this! I kind of thought you would try to talk us out of it." Lucy said
"Should we?" Asked Edmund
"Of course not!" Lucy replied "I just don't know how long we'll be here for, that's all"
Susan looked at her reassuringly "None of us do, but we should all make the most of the time we have." The others nodded there heads in agreement, and sat there in silence for moment before Peter spoke up
"Anyways," he began "what all has happened in the past 6 months?"
"Well as you know, Before you left we had established peace, the first few months after you left that remained, and the world is still mostly peaceful. But I'm sure Drinian told you that about a month ago we had a surprise attack on the way the Calormen."
"Yes, he mentioned that, but didn't give us any details" Said Edmund
"I figured that's what he did" Caspian said before continuing "we believe they were trying to get rid of me, so they could take over Narnia, although there's no way to prove it, as they claim, the people who attacked had nothing to do with the Tisroc, but we have reason to believe they did."
"That sounds like Calormen alright" said Edmund "they have always wanted Narnia and Archenland, even back in the golden age!"
"We haven't had much contact with them since, but we have been preparing just in case the worst happens" Caspian replied
"That's very good!" Susan said "and now let us discuss another matter, we will eventually have to tell our school who we are, how should we go about doing so?"
Caspian was the first to speak up "tomorrow is the anniversary of you all ending the reign of the white witch, and becoming kings and queens, as such, we will be having a ball to celebrate, we could announce to your school and all of Narnia that you're back, there!"
"That would be perfect!" Exclaimed Susan "They wouldn't dare make a big scene in front of so many people, and they would have to believe us!"
"Then it's settled! We will announce it at the ball, tomorrow night!" Said Lucy
They spent the rest of the afternoon talking merrily and snacking on cookies, until it was time for Caspian to go talk to the teachers
