October 22nd - Prompt: Bow and arrow

"You reckon I could give it a go?" 

Susan turned, smirking at Peter. "You wanna do archery?" She asked. 

Peter shrugged, wondering over. "Why not," He replied. "I bet I'd be good at it." 

Susan raised an eyebrow at him, "Alright then," She said, handing her bow and arrow to Peter. "Hit the target or I'll eat you dessert tonight." 

Peter snorted. "Just the target?" He murmured. "I don't even hit the bullseye?" 

"Nope, just the target." Susan said softly, smirking as she stepped back. 

Peter frowned a little at her, "Alright..." He said slowly, before turning to face the target.

"This is actually really nice."

Lucy giggled, eating her own dessert with a smirk as she tried not to make eye contact with her older brother. 

Peter was currently glaring playfully at Susan, but looked up Edmund walked in. He'd been working all day and had told the others to go ahead and eat without him, so when he walked in to see Peter giving Susan a death glare, he was confused. "What's up?" He asked, sitting at the table. 

Susan smiled, "Well, Peter wanted to have a go at archery earlier," She began. "So we made a deal that if he missed the target, I got his dessert." 

Edmund let out a laugh, "You missed?!" He chuckled. 

Peter turned his glare to his brother. "Oh shut up." He muttered. 

Susan laughed gently. "Oh Peter," She breathed, handing over the bowl. "Here, but maybe next time, don't miss, practice makes perfect eh."
