That Old Playground Song
Narnia RPF. Ben/Will. PG13. Written very belatedly for
mumblemutter, with <33.
Ben and Will sitting in a tree.
Will finds the tree in-between takes, a little ways downstream from the bridge scene. It's wide-trunked with low sturdy branches, and by lunchtime Georgie and Skandar are also climbing all over it, while Andrew stands with his hands on his hips yelling up at them about youthful illusions of invulnerability and how hospital bills aren't covered by the film budget.
"It's difficult acting in plaster casts, you know!" he warns.
This is when Anna and Ben come along, and with teamwork they manage to talk Skandar and Georgie down from the tree. ("I'm going to eat all the parfaits," Anna threatens.)
"Go ahead," Ben says to them. "I'll get Will."
"You just want to go tree-climbing," Georgie accuses, and Ben grins at her.
"Don't fall," is all Andrew says to him, and then they make their way to catering.
Ben climbs the tree.
Will is perched on the highest branch that can support his weight, which doesn't look very high up from the ground. Then again, many a take for the raid scene have taught him that things never look very high up from the ground. Ben looks down halfway up the tree, and promises himself he won't do so again unless it's absolutely necessary.
Will says, "What's up, Barnes?"
"What are you doing up here?"
"Waiting for Georgie and Skandar to get out of the tree, and for you to get up here," he shrugs. "So I can do this."
He leans forward and kisses Ben, and it's just as sweet as the first time. (Behind the 'sugar-glass' panel from the White Witch scene. Georgie caught them and, after the giggling subsided, she winked dramatically at them and skipped away.)
Ben smiles against Will's lips. "You knew I would come?"
"What? Aren't I irresistible?"
"Oh please. You know Caspian's the handsome one."
"That's crazy talk," says Will. "I bet there'll be more Peter posters sold than Caspian posters. You'll see. You'll see, and then you'll cry about it."
"Oh yeah?" Ben challenges. "They're making a pillow with my face on one side and Aslan's on the other."
Will laughs.
"No," says Ben. "Really."
Will's laughter tapers off, and then he gives Ben the fish-eye. "Seriously?"
"Are we done? Do you want to come down now?"
"I'm not really hungry. And the view's pretty nice from up here."
"I'm not hungry either," says Ben slowly.
Will looks at him, and Ben just grins and waggles his eyebrows.
"You look like a crazy person when you do that," Will informs him.
"I'll take that as a yes."
"I'll race you to your trailer."
"No, let's climb down carefully--"
"Go!"
"Hey!"
Will wins the race. But, all things considered, it's pretty even in the end.
