May 2nd - Prompt: This is home

-----------

"You really think we can do this?"

Peter sighed a little. "Aslan seems to think we can." He murmured.

"If Aslan thinks we can, then we can." Lucy stepped in. "We trust Aslan right?"

"Course we do." Edmund breathed. "It just seems impossible to rule a kingdom at our ages, Lucy, you're not even 10 yet."

"I know." Lucy said slowly. "But that's how much I trust Aslan."

"That's another thing." Susan breathed. "This kingdom we have to rule, is it home?"

Peter hesitated. "It's certainly starting to feel like it." He mumbled quietly.

"I like Narnia." Lucy said somewhat happily. "I mean, its not every day you find a magical land at the back of your wardrobe."

Peter and Edmund smiled a little at this, but Susan was still serious. "Are we definitely staying then?" She asked.

Peter stared at her for a moment, before turning to Edmund, giving him a questioning look. "I know I can't abandon Narnia right now." He said slowly and thoughtfully. "Not after everything..."

Peter bit his lip, before turning to Lucy, who didn't hesitate in answering. "I want to stay." She said.

Peter nodded a little, before turning back to Susan. "I wouldn't mind it." He said, almost asking a question with the tone of his voice.

Susan was quiet for a while before a small smile crossed her lips. "I guess that's sorted then." She breathed. "We're staying."

Lucy beamed and Edmund smiled widely, even Peter looked beyond happy even if he wasn't smiling a lot.

"And ruling a kingdom?" He asked.

Susan swallowed hard. "We'll do it together." She breathed. "I'm sure if we all try our hardest it can't be that hard."

"So that's it then...?" Lucy said. "This is home now?"

Peter smiled at her. "Yeah Lu." He breathed. "This is home."
