Narnia drabble: Transformative Moment [Caspian/Edmund, general]
Title: Transformative Moment
Author: celandineb
Fandom: Narnia
Pairing: Caspian/Edmund
Rating: general
Summary: Sometimes the world changes in an instant.
Note: For angela_snape who wanted Caspian/Edmund, "preparation."


His whole life had been preparation for that moment, when, gasping and dripping, he was hauled up onto the deck of the Dawn Treader.

Bright sunshine haloed Caspian, hailing Lucy with delight. Then he turned to Edmund. All the dreams Edmund had told himself were hopeless took on new hues of expectancy when Caspian's eyes met his own.

He could not have said how he knew it. Caspian's handclasp was no different, really, from the way that the king greeted Eustace (except that Eustace sniveled and complained). Yet everything changed. Edmund knew that, somehow, Caspian and he would come together.
