Peter walked back to camp and found Edmund. Lucy sat in his lap, and the two were talking. Peter pulled him away and found a private place in the woods for the two of them to speak.

Sydni eventually found Abby, but not before asking Anna to join the two. She, of course said yes.

"Hey!" Sydni said as she and Anna walked up to Abby, each sitting on either side of her.

Abby slowly looked up. "Hey!" She said, a smile making its way onto her face.

"I feel like it's been so long since it was just the three of us." Anna said.

"It's been forever!" Sydni said, laughing slightly.

Abby smiled, nodding slowly. "Soo, Syd." She said.

Sydni slowly looked up at her.

"What happened with Peter? Are you good now?" She asked.

  Sydni stared at her for a moment. "Well, that depends." She breathed. "How did things go with you two? Because if things didn't go well then there is no way-"

"Sydni." Abby said gently with a smile, laughing slightly.

"We are fine. Just like brother and sister. " She smiled.

Sydni did nothing for a moment, before she slowly smiled. "Really?" She laughed.

"Really." Abby replied.

Sydni laughed. "That's great!"

"Yeah!" Abby laughed. "Now please. You have to tell us what happened between you two."

"Yeah!" Anna said quickly. "Come on, please tell us."

Sydni sighed, but in a good way. "Oh, not much. We just...KISSED!"

   Abby gasped, but then smiled.

"You what?!" Anna exclaimed with a laugh.

Sydni smiled, letting out a lightheaded laugh.

"How was it?" Anna asked slowly.

Sydni raised her eyebrows, and laughed nervously.

"Come on." Abby begged. "Tell us."

Sydni laughed. "It was amazing!" She said, after a moment.

Abby and Anna looked at each other for a moment before smiling and laughing.

"First, he lifted me in the air and spun me around."

"No, way?!" Abby said, sounding shocked.

"Yes!" Sydni said excitedly.

   All three girls laughed at this.

"Then, he gently placed me on the ground, before slowly kissing me. It was perfect"

Abby smiled excitedly.

"Sydni." Anna said. "That's like, a movie kiss! The kind that only happens on screen."

Sydni smiled before smirking. "Well, Peter definitely deserves an Oscar."

They all laughed.

"So." Edmund breathed, breaking the awkward silence that had lasted a couple of minutes. "How did it go with Abby? He sounded hopeful, although he was trying to hide it. But, Peter knew him very well, and heard the hope laced in his voice.
