On My Mind {Suspian}

A Mischievous Morning

"Last night was- amazing." He sighed with satisfaction as he sat up against his pillow. Lilliandil crawled towards the door. Before she clutched the handle, she made clear that what had happened between her and Peter was a mistake, and although she had enjoyed it, it couldn't happen again. This caused peters mood to drop, as a friend to Caspian he knew deep down it was a mistake but on the surface he enjoyed her company.

Caspian admired Susan as she slept. Her brown locks fell loosely behind her head and her snores were delicate and soft. She looked peaceful and Caspian cherished the view. He placed a gentle kiss upon her lips before getting out of her comfortable grip.

"Sleep well beautiful." He whispered as he left the door.

Without a shadow of doubt, Caspian knew he had fallen in love with Susan. A love he had never felt for Lillandil.

An hour or more after Caspian had disappeared, Susan rouse from a heavy slumber. At first she was aware of the coolness of the air and it's manly fragrance, however, waking up had never felt so pleasant. Her body was relaxed and so was her mind. She hadn't felt this pleased since she saw all her family together back in England.

In the hazy morning light, the repercussions of their earlier passion would come haunting. Susan, her mind as agile as the day, already anticipated the difficult conversations, the awkward exchanges prompted by a sudden shift in their relationship. They were a simple complication in a complicated world, and she knew they would face the resulting chaos together. Their love was not careless but bold, a testament of their resilience. After all, the morning brought not just consequences, but also the promise of a new day - a day in which they would navigate this bifurcation in their path, hand in hand.

Composed, Susan took a shower and reminisced on her elated memory of the night previous. Not long after, she allowed Mary to dress her in a long brown dress, fit for archery.

"Wonderful night, wasn't it?" Mary icily asked. Susan pondered on the thought of revealing the night before but proposed she had somewhere to be. "You ruined my plan you know." Mary says tightening the dress. "I had that dress made especially for you; and you didn't even wear it. I find that very disgusting from a Queen. But just in case you was wondering dear Susan. Tonight, the Deep Magic will be appeased, but tomorrow, we will take Narnia forever! And this time I won't let you or your siblings get in my way."

Immediately, She turned from a fragile old women to a familiar enemy. "Jadis." Susan gasped as she watched through the reflection of the mirror. "How is this possible?" Astonished, Susan attempted to turn around but before her body could move she saw black and collapsed to the ground. The White Witch admired her handy work through the mirror and vanished the vulnerable body out of the safety of the castle into the depths of Narnia.

"You couldn't have seen them together. I know you have been right about things in the past, Luce but this is insane. You're claiming that Peter and Lilliandil left together hand in hand. As well as Susan and Caspian. You're too young to know about love anyway." Edmund was in disbelief, although his sister spoke wistfully he couldn't comprehend the thought of his older siblings humiliating themselves like that.
"Edmund, I know what I saw. Just see what happens at breakfast, if it's awkward. Then you might believe me." Lucy was hurt by her brothers careless words, yet she didn't show it. The two had been sitting alone waiting for the others to arrive. "And anyway, who was that girl you was talking too. She was pretty, and she seemed swoon." Lucy grinned as her brother blushed. "But so did you." She joked.

"How did you see us, we deliberately went outside so we wasn't seen. Her father would faint if he knew I was any where around her without consenting him first."
Lucy laughed at her brother's mistake. "I would like to tell you it's because I'm extremely observant, however I was just fooling around with you. So thank you for telling me, Ed." Playfully, he slaps his sister on the shoulder.
Sincerely, Edmund thanks his sister. "Im glad we've grown closer since the last time we was in Narnia, it's been nice having a sibling I can actually talk too and count on." She smiles before returning the compliment.

Sorry the ending is a bit rubbish. I've been so focused on school that I haven't had the chance to finish this chapter. I will try and upload one chapter each week. Tell me below what you thought, was your predictions right?
