The Lone Islands// Edmund Pevensie (#Wattys2016)

22- Lucy

Somethings happened.

Everyone is in such a better mood today.

Caspian is lively, and jogging around the ship to each sailors station!

Ed is smiling and helping with others more!

Eustace is SINGING. SINGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rose is....well... ROSE!!!

This is making me happy!

It's like all the positivity is spreading around, through the ship and out with the waves!!!

But the thing is I don't know whats happened.

It can't be just a 'coincidence' that now Rose is better, and Caspian and Ed are not 'lurking'!

I repeat; lurking.

LURKING.

Anyway, may i just say that Eustace can not sing for his life.

Moving on, We have spotted land, following the blue light Rose and I suggested, and the island seems MASSIVE.

Think of the biggest island you can imagine.

Double it.

Honestly, I don't exaggerate.

" Ed, Do I exaggerate? " I quickly turned to my right to see Ed drinking from a golden goblet.

" Perhaps you do, Lucy..." Ed muttered happily. His mind seemed to be elsewhere.

" Perhaps you don't " He muttered once more, but I didn't look round at him anymore.

I looked at what he was looking at.

Rose.

She was talking to Reepicheep on the other side of the ship, almost opposite us.

It took me a couple of split seconds for it to even process.

THIS is what has happened.

They have finally confessed their love for each other and THEIR positivity has RADIATED!

" So Ed, you finally did it, hmm? " I mumbled, but, of course, he was in too much of a daydream to even notice I was there.

But I didn't mind.

I liked watching love spark.

It's an odd feeling really.

Looking at love thats' not even yours.

But you know, I'm so happy for them.

I can't wait for the time when Ed and Rose are in THEIR chairs in THEIR living room in THEIR house and telling us all about their love and how they met and they FINALLY confessed their feelings for each other.

Then it hit me like lightening.

Edmund lives in England.

Rose lives in Narnia.

What happens when we go back?

Rose can't come back with us!

She'll disintegrate out of existence!!

Well that's what Peter said when Susan begged to bring Caspian back...

What are they going to do?!?

I looked at Rose again to see her looking at Edmund.

How can true love be broken?

" Ed " I said to him but he told me 'not now'.

So I rushed to Rose, on the other side of the boat, tripping up on the slightly raised planks.

I fell down flat on my stomach, but Rose was walking away.

" Rose, listen to me, don't fall too hard- love has to seperate- if it was true love in the first place- that person will always come back "

But she seemed to not notice me, but I knew it was because she transfixed on Edmund.

But somehow I hope she heard me.
