I didn't know
••••••••
"I didn't sleep much last night."
Peter stared at him for a moment or two, hesitating. "Why?" He asked.
Edmund shrugged a little.
"Why?" Peter repeated.
Edmund sighed. "Nightmares." He whispered.
Peter swallowed hard. "I - I didn't know." He mumbled.
Edmund shrugged. "How could you," He said. "You weren't here."
Peter was quiet for a moment or two before he sighed. "You wanna talk about it?" He asked.
"Same old same old." Edmund replied. "Nothing new."
Peter nodded a little. "Why don't you head back to bed?" He suggested. "There's not a lot to do today, no one will miss you."
"I can't do that." Edmund muttered.
"Yes you can," Peter told him. "If only for a couple of hours, go on."
Edmund sighed, but he didn't reckon he'd be able to make it through the day without at least a nap, so he nodded a little. "Alright," He breathed. "I'll see you later."
Peter smiled. "See you later."
