Nothing Can Come Between Us (2)

Chapter 9: A Second Blessing

All was well in Narnia, and things would only get better.

Lord Tyran was arrested after the war when Caspian found out he had become somewhat of a dictator over the people of Telmar and hadn't left them with much choice concerning the war. This turned out be a good thing. It meant that the majority of the Telmarines hadn't wanted to separate in the first place, so Narnia hod no risk of losing them any time soon. Caspian decided, after this incident, to be more involved with the people of Telmar, after all it was his native land. He decided to visit regularly and set up council meetings when he was there so as to keep caught up with what all was happening.

In the midst of all this 'cleaning up' of sorts after the war, Susan was found to be with child again, meaning Narnia would soon be welcoming it's second royal child. Just as before, everyone was bubbling with excitement, especially Eliana. And when the day came and the baby was born she couldn't keep away from her little brother.

"This is your baby brother." Susan had said. "Prince Caspian James, the eleventh, but we'll just call him by his middle name, James, so it's not so confusing." She winked. Eliana leaned forward and kissed the baby's soft forehead.

"I love you James. And I promise to be a good big sister, as long as you don't steal my toys too much." She said. James stirred in Susan's arms and cooed as if to promise the same back.

Susan laughed. "I'm sure you'll make a wonderful big sister." She said, running her hand through Eliana's long brown hair.

"And if he's anything like me, he'll be a wonderful little brother." Edmund joked from across the room.

Susan couldn't help but smile through all the rest of the day. Life was as perfect as it could get. Her baby was healthy, her brothers and husband had returned from the war safe, and her family was all together in a place that was more home to them than anywhere else.
