The Lone Islands// Edmund Pevensie (#Wattys2016)

chapter 5 Rose

3 years it has been. 3 YEARS.

When Caspian told me, I literally ran as fast as I could down the corridors, and down the stairs, but I was still wearing how stupid am I!

I went back down the corridor, to bump back into Caspian.

" Here you are, Lucy and Ed are getting changed anyway" Caspian smirked and passed me the clothes and I slammed the quarters door behind me.

I had blue, flary trousers and a white top. Great. Its better than that wretched dress anyway.

Anyway, I'm supposed to be happy. Happy, Happy, HAPPY.

As soon as I had got the clothes on, I acted normal, walking down the stairs to see Caspian.....LUCY AND ED.

"Oh, excuse me lad, I don't supposed you've seen my sister perhaps?" Caspian added to my humiliation, as I whacked him.

" ALRIGHT!" I exclaimed, as I looked up at Ed and Lucy.

" ED, LUCY!" I screamed. (not literally) as I gave them both hugs.

" We've missed you loads!" Lucy explained, as I went back to standing next to Caspian.

After a awkward silence, Caspian gestured for us to follow him, into his quarters, me being the back of the group.

" Wow" I whispered, causing everyone to look at me.

" Wait, Rose, you were in here, not 5 minutes ago!" Caspian gave me a weird expression and Ed and Lucy, were trying very hard not to laugh.

" Ummmmm,,," I felt pressurized....WHY ON EARTH HAD I SAID WOW.

" UMMMMM,....I just get BLOWNNNN away whenever I come in here!" I smiled sweetly, and they seemed convinced as they turned back around. PHEW.

Caspian had gone over to a cupboard, whilst the other two looked around them. I just went back to sitting where I was earlier, the seas were much rougher than last time.

 Lucy abruptly turned to see Caspian holding some things that must have been hers.

" My healing cordial! And dagger!" Lucy squealed in delight.

" Ooh, may I?" She asked. WELL IF THEIR YOURS JUST TAKE IT. Well, I would anyway.

" Of course, their yours!" Caspian smiled, as Lucy grabbed them.

"Peters sword!" Ed exclaimed, as Caspian yet again pulled out Rhindon, Peter's sword which he had gratefully looked after. (And he fangirled afterwards, as he always liked the sword).

" Looked after, as promised!" Caspian replied. But seriously, after the Pevensies went back to their land, Caspian- instead of being the slightest bit sad- he came up to me , squealing his head off-

" I HAVE HIGH KING PETERS SWORD!!!! AHHHHH" And ran off....Oh Casp.

 " Ooh, and I found this!" I grabbed Ed's torch from the shelf near the seat, and chucked it at him.

He caught it (just, Ahaha..) and replied with a thanks. I honestly don't know what's going on between me and him. Last time I saw him, he kissed me...and I kissed back...

Blocking out that thought, i blinked not twice, to see the 3 of them, already hovering over the map of Narnia, and Caspian telling (and showing) our current situation.

I wasn't really listening, (for all i know, Lucy and Ed might not've been listening, as they were very quiet- Or were they just listening?) I do contemplate with myself too much.

 " Rose? ROSELYN" Caspian knew this would catch my attention.

" Do.not-" I moaned.

" CALL ME ROSELYN, WE KNOW" All three of them spoke in unison, which scared me and them a little.

" What did you want?" I asked, hand on my hip.

" Nothing...nothing" Caspian mumbled, and they all gave each other knowing glances.

" Ok, You KNOW i hate it when something's going on, and i don't know about it!" I said, trying to calm down, but it wasn't working.

" Nothing's going on" They all said again in time , whilst giving each other death glares. They obviously found it hard NOT to say things in sync.

I'll let them all of this time.

" Well i'm going outside!" I stomped off dramatically, and aimed to walk to the front of the ship.

This small, blonde haired boy popped out from the hull. And of course, it frightened me, because i have never seen him before.

" Who are you?" I questioned.

"Who are YOU?" He replied, standing upright on the deck, but still not reaching my height.

" I asked you first" I argued.

" I asked you second, what's the difference?" He does have a accent like Ed and Lucy, i bet it's something to do with them.

 And right that second, they had come out of the doors, and out into the open.

" Oh!" I ran over to them, all eager and that.

" Have you seen him before?" I whispered to them, even though the boy wouldn't be able to hear us. Unless, he had mega hearing that could hear anything clearly from the other side of the ship.

" Unfortunately" Ed spoke, but Lucy whacked him, before he could say anything else.

" He's our cousin, and it just so happened that he came with us- back here i mean- it was all accidental" Lucy leaned towards me, when saying this, as if apologizing.

" No, no, i jut wandered..." And at that, i walked straight up to him, and held my hand out.

" Nice to meet you, Ed and Lucy's cousin, I'm Rose!" I said enthusiastically.

He seemed hesitant at first, but then decided to shake my hand.

" I'm Eustace, I expect you know my cousins?" He gestured to Ed and Lucy, now sat on the boxes near the middle of the ship.

" Oh, i do, Eustace, 3 years i have!" I exclaimed, as he turned in surprise.

" 3 years? That's how long, they've been staying with us! I've never seen you around" I didn't question what he meant by 'us', but i tried my best not to confuse him.

" See they have visited Narnia before!" And that made Eustace flinch suddenly...
