kira pov:

i was woken up to my door being busted open and an over excited lucy jumping all over me

"kira! kira! wake up come on!" i groggily open my eyes "where are we going again?" but it went ignored as she rushed out the room and into peters

"peter! peter! wake up! its there its really there!" "shhhh" he shushes her i put on my robe and walk into the room with susan and edmund following,she sent me and apologetic look but i just gave her a tired smile telling her it was alright

"lucy what are you talking about?" peter asked in a tired voice that made my stomach all weird and fuzzy but i pushed it aside

"narnia! its all in the wardrobe like i told you!" susan sighs "you've been dreaming lucy" she says worriedly "but i haven't i saw mr.tumnas again and this time edmund went too"

we all looked at edmund and he froze "you-you saw the faun?"peter asked 

'of course edmund went too...thanks dad' i frown at my own thoughts,he shakes his head

"well he didn't actually go there with me he-what were you doing edmund?" "i-i was just playing along i'm sorry peter i shouldn't have encouraged her but you know what little children are like these days they just dont know when to stop pretending"

he sits down with a smirk and i can see water gathering in her eyes.i huff "well i believe her"i say "you do?" peter asked and of course susan wasn't surprised

"i do,and one day i hope lucy takes me bac-in narnia one day" i say while looking at her she sends me a great full look through her tears "well maybe you're just as crazy as she is" edmund says cockily

"ed!" peter scolds and that was lucy's breaking point,she started running out the room sobbing i followed her and growled at edmund as i pass and i knew he heard it when i saw his eyes go wide.

peter and susan followed,peter pushing edmund on his way out. we all three turned the corner to see lucy clinging onto my grandfather

"you children are one shenanigan shy of sleepin' in the stable!" mrs.macreadys harsh voice echoed through the room

"professor im sorry i told them you were not to be disturbed" she gives us a pointed look "its alright mrs.macready i'm sure there's an explanation but first of all i think this one is in need of a little hot chocolate"

mrs.macready grabbed lucy's hand gently leading her out the room. we started to walk away when grandfather cleared his throat.

++++

"you see to have upset the delicate internal balance of my house keeper" "we're very sorry sir it won't happen again" peter said tugging on mine and susan's robe sleeves but we went no where he lead us to his study  

"she's our sister sir,lucy" "the weeping girl." "yes sir,shes upset" "hence the weeping"i smirked at his words "its nothing we can handle it"

 'kiss up'

"oh i can see that" he replied sarcastically "she thinks shes found a magical land,so does kira" she gestured towards me

"in the upstairs wardrobe" my grandfather looked up with wide eyes at susan then to me but all i did was nod and smirk

"what did you say?" he lead us to his couch "the wardrobe upstairs lucy thinks shes found a forest inside and kira believes her" peter explained

"she wont stop going on about it" susan says almost exasperated "what was it like?" he asks "like talking to a lunatic" i would have laughed if i didn't bite my tongue

"i think he meant the wardrobe susan" i say with a grin "correct,the magical land" "your not saying you believe them?" peter asked shocked

"uhhh right here" i mumble "you don't?" he retorts "but of course not i mean logically,its impossible" "what do they teach you in school these days?" he says more to himself

"edmund said they were only pretending" "and he's usually the more truthful one huh?" i ask sarcastically "no,this would be the first time" peter responds to me

"well if shes not mad and they're not lying then logically we must assume their telling the truth" he lights his pipe "your saying that we should just believe them?" peter asked dumbly

"again right here" i mumble more annoyed "she's your sister isn't she? and she's your friend? you're her family you might just try acting like one"

"well i agree with grandfather,or you guys think i'm crazy too" i say coldly referring back to edmunds words,they both just look down not saying anything.

i sigh and get up from the couch "come on pevensies lets get to bed,goodnight grandfather" we walk out and i close the door behind us "goodnight guys" i tell them without sparing them a glance

"kira" i hear susan whisper "we're sorry,its just do you actually believe lucy? and your grandfather?" i scoff "of course i do,and if it wasnt real i would believe lucy over edmund any day after all i'm crazy and a lunatic"

and with that i walk off into my room leaving susan and peter to get to their rooms by themselves.
