ONE SHOTS !!! (any topic) *dont really do them anymore*

the golden ages:Edmund + layla (NARNIA)

this is set in the golden ages of Narnia approximately 6 years after they defeated the white witch.....

Layla's POV 

"where shall i put these, your majesty" i asked the young dark haired king while holding out a freshly washed pair of pajamas.

my name is Layla i live here in the palace they call the cair paravel in Narnia, but I'm not royalty or anything, I'm just a simple maid girl who served the young kings and queens of Narnia.

"just lay them on the bed" he said shakily

he has had a few drinks and was slightly drunk. lately king Edmund had been having really bad nightmares and the only way he could go to sleep is after a couple drinks, rumours around the palace say that his nightmares are of the white witch.

i was just about to leave king Edmund's chambers when he called me back "Layla wait" he said just above a whisper "go lay on the bed under the sheets"

i was rather startled by that and didn't move or make a sound.

he let out a soft chuckle "don't worry we're only gonna sleep. i hate being alone in this big empty room" he said "now, i order you to go lay under the sheets"

 this time i did as he said, as much as i'd rather leave his chambers he was still my king and i could get in a lot of trouble for not obeying him. on the bright side the kings bed was much comfier on what i usually slept on.

he wrapped a firm arm around me to make sure i wouldn't leave and surprisingly instead of sleeping he talked to me

Edmund's POV

not even a couple drinks could sooth my fear of sleep anymore. every night its the same nightmare only every night it gets worse....i keep seeing the witch and she talks to me as if luring me into some great scheme i'm worried what i might do if manages to bring me to her side.

i've changed over the last couple months, i stopped talking to aslan, my siblings don't seem to want to talk to me and now I'm so scared of being alone i've dragged the poor servant girl into staying with me  for the night. you could feel the girls discomfort a mile away.

after that i don't know if it was the drinks, or the lack of sleep, but i then started to talk to the girl, Layla, i told her all my thoughts and feelings and she told me some stuff about her self.

after a while of talking her discomfort was gone and we conversed like we were old friends until we finally feel asleep.

Layla's POV 

I woke up the next morning to an empty bed, after last night i saw king Edmund as a different person, a person who could use some love that everyone was trying to avoid giving to him, even his siblings.

I opened my eyes and looked around the room and was startled to see queens Lucy, Susan and king peter looking at me.

when the realization dawn upon me i quickly gathered my self together and rose from the bed to bow "your majesty's" I said in hurry and to my surprise queen Susan came over putting a hand on my shoulder

"you poor thing" she said "what has my brother done to you"

"he hasn't done anything your majesty, we just slept" I was trying to save Edmund some trouble but they still didn't look convinced "he was lonely" I explained further

the three of them gave each other knowing looks and I continued "forgive me your majesties, I know its not my place to say, but last night king Edmund told me that he hasn't spoken to aslan in a while and that he feels rather lonely. it might be a good idea to push him into talking with aslan and to maybe show him some sibling love" I was usually not the kind of person to say things like  that especially not to royalty, but I felt this needed to be said

"your a wise girl Layla" said king peter "and maybe your right, we'll take your words into consideration but for now you should be heading back to your quarters and getting ready for your daily chores"

"right away your majesty" I bowed and quickly left the room.

Edmund's POV  a couple months later

a couple months have passed since my little night with the servant girl, Layla. things have changed since then my siblings talked me into talking to aslan again and my nightmares have been slowly going away.

I still sometimes order Layla into staying with me the night, but only to talk. I have grown rather fond of Layla, I'm considering to ask her to marry me but I'm not sure what she would say so I asked her to meet me in the palace garden so I could speak to her privately.

I waited in the garden for her arrival and I smiled when I saw her coming towards me.

"you wanted to speak to me" she said sweetly

"yes, please come sit down beside me" I patted the seat next to me. she smiled and sat down "this is for you" I handed her a rose

"thank you, its beautiful".

"Layla, I want to ask you something very important and I beg you to please just listen to what I have to say before answering"

"you can ask me anything, your Majesty" she looked at me with curiosity

"Layla, I want to know if you would do me the honer of being my bride. I know I'm not the best person but I promise if you accept I will treat you with nothing but love and respect. I can give both you and your family a better life, our children will be royalty and will never go without. I know you had a hard time growing up but I can make sure your life and the lives of your family will be so much better if you do this"

she was silent for a moment before responding "why me?" she asked

"because you listened to me when even my siblings didn't, you cared about me and helped get through tough times, I consider you as one of my closes friends and I couldn't think of someone I would rather be with, I promise I will love you and if you could find it in your heart to love me just the same I will be forever grateful. so what do say, will you be mine?"

"I will" she said softly "but I want you to know that I'm not doing this for the riches or fame but because I care about you and I love you just as you love me"

I smiled and leaned in to kiss my soon to be bride. the diamond in the rough that aslan has saved for me all these years.

unknown POV

two years passed and Layla was now with child. unfortunately king Edmund never got to see his first and only born son.

one unfaithful day the kings and queens of Narnia (Lucy, Susan, peter and Edmund) went out for horse back ride in the woods but they never came back.

people said that they would were never seen in Narnia again. but that's only what they thought............
