you loved the holidays, it has been your favourite time of year for as long as you can remember. college was much more draining than you anticipated, and it was really beginning to weigh you down. the only thing that had been keeping you going was the excitement of returning to your family and relaxing for the next few weeks. nothing was ever that simple, though. your flight home had been cancelled due to weather. thankfully, you were still with edmund, your best friend, when you got the notification. he insisted you stay with him and his family, and you after much argument, you gave in.

you were nervous walking up the steps to the pevensie household, edmund had told you his two sisters and parents were already expecting them, and that his brother should be home later. you followed edmund through the front door, hearing a mass of footsteps rush towards you. you saw a younger girl come embrace edmund, and he returned it, greeting his family all with hugs and smiles. you felt as though you were intruding, and nervously shifted from foot to foot. you seemed to catch the attention of the youngest girl, whom you recalled was named lucy, and she made her way over to you, catching you off guard when she threw her arms around you and embraced you tightly.

"you must be y/n! edmund has told us so much about you!" she exclaimed, and you smiled.

"has he now?" you teased, and edmund rolled his eyes, knowing he'd never live down his sister's words.

"thanks lu." he grumbled, and a laugh erupted throughout the group, making you feel more at home than you could've thought possible.

you spent the afternoon getting to know the pevensies, and you realized why edmund spoke so highly of them all. they were all so sweet and welcoming, though you did wonder how it would be to meet edmund's brother. ed tried to avoid the topic of him generally, saying briefly that him and his brother had a much more complex and competitive relationship. from the way the other pevensies had casually thrown warnings around at the mention of the eldest child, you assumed he must not have been the most well-behaved of the family.

you were joyfully sipping on a cup of hot chocolate chatting with lucy and susan when the door swung open, making you jump a little at the unexpected noise. your heads snapped to the entrance area, susan shaking her head and lucy jumping up to greet who you assumed to be peter.

"honestly, he hasn't even been here five minutes and he's already being incredibly loud!" susan huffed, causing you to giggle.

"he's that bad, huh?" you asked, and susan opened her mouth to reply when you were interrupted by lucy re-entering the room, a tall blonde boy following her. susan stood to greet him, scolding him for his obnoxious actions all the while. you took the time to study his features. he was broad, muscular. he had a defined jawline and beautiful blue eyes. his hair was a beautiful golden colour and looked fluffy, and you had a strange urge to run your fingers through it. you snapped out of your daze when he turned to you, and you felt a small blush rise to your cheeks as he looked you up and down not-so-subtly.

"and who might you be?" he asked, his voice slightly teasing. you opened your mouth to reply when edmund came into the room and interrupted.

"this is y/n. stay away from her." he said simply, taking your wrist and pulling you out of the room. you blinked in surprise, but didn't argue. you simply let him guide you away from the beautiful man in the main area. he turned to you, seeing the dazed look in your eye and frowning. "no. absolutely not." you furrowed your brow, and he sighed. "you have that look in your eyes. you cannot fancy my brother! that's just weird!" he whined, and you laughed, shaking your head.
