Narnia, Susan/Lucy, I'll come back when you call me/No need to say goodbye
Note: This is very much Movie!Susan. But I like her a lot better anyway, so :P.
The door creaked open, the light of a candle staining the inside of susan’s eyelids pink as she curled her hand around the kitchen-knife under her pillow—and how she regretted the loss of her arrows, sometimes, at night. Little footsteps padded towards her bed, paused, “Susan?” She let go of the night and sat up, pushing her long hair out of her face.
“Lucy? What are you doing up, sweetheart?” The candlelight made the little girl’s eyes shine like she’d been crying, or wanting too. She set the candle on Susan’s bedside table.
“Can I sit with you for a while? I don’t want to be alone.” Susan lifted the quilt on her bed, let Lucy crawl under with her. Lucy snuggled up next to her, burying damp cheeks in the hollow between Susan’s chin and shoulders. Susan sighed, and closed her eyes again. “I’m worried about Mr. Tumnas,” Lucy whispered finally. “We’re not even there—will he be ok? Who’s looking out for Narnia now?” Susan pushed the hair back from her forehead, stroking her head like their mother had used to. “We’re little again,” and now Lucy’s voice had gone as small and fragile as Susan had ever heard it. “What if we can’t protect everyone?”
“We’ll just do our best,” Susan said. The candle guttered and almost blew out. “I’ll be with you. Peter will lead us, and Edward will follow him, and we… we’ll do our best. And I’ll stay by your side, no matter what.”
