fic: narnia: Bed Time Story
Title: Bed Time Story
Prompt: WC50: rain, 029. Missing Scene; 7snogs #4 - Sunset
Summary: Lucy can't sleep, and goes to Peter for help. Peter/Lucy sibling
During that first rainy night in Professor Kirke's house, Peter and Edmund's door squeaked open just the smallest bit, and Peter opened his eyes blearily. Edmund, on the other hand, rolled over so that his back faced the door. Peter propped himself up on his arm, and Lucy whispered, "Peter? Ed?"
Edmund huffed grumpily and pretended to be asleep, so Peter replied, "Yes, Lu?"
Lucy said, "I can't get to sleep."
Peter sighed and sat up. "Come here," he said, and she climbed into his lap. He asked, "Do you want to hear a story?" and felt more than saw her nod. Peter had been telling bedtime stories to Lucy for most of her eight years, so he knew just the story to tell her. "Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lucy. She had two brothers and one sister, and their names were Peter, Susan, and Edmund ..."
When he had finished, he slipped one arm under her legs and stood up. It wasn't far to the girls' room, and Peter had Lucy in her own bed almost without Susan stirring. He brushed her hair away from her forehead and kissed it. "Good night, Lucy."
She sighed happily and burrowed into her bedding. "Good night, Peter. I love you," she whispered sleepily.
Peter smiled as he pulled the girls' door shut behind him. When he got back to his own room, Edmund mumbled waspishly into his pillow, "You couldn't have been a bit quieter, could you?"
Peter ignored him and went to sleep, still smiling.
Notes: kurasari at rambling_tales has written a bunch of Nurse Lucy fics. They make me happy. She will soon be adding some lovely Peter/Lucy into the mix. This makes me even happier. So this is for her, as most of these Narnia fics are.
