peter kisses her forehead and says, "keep edmund out of trouble."
"i know you told edmund to keep ME out of trouble," susan says pointedly.
he smiles. "trouble from queen susan the gentle? never." they embrace, and he says, "have a safe trip. i'll miss you."
susan cups his face in her hands, whispers, "i'll try to miss you when i have time."
"be off with you!" peter laughs.
everyone finishes up their farewells and finally it really is time to go. as they leave the gates of cair paravel, susan spots peter watching from his balcony and points him out to edmund, who says, "doesn't he have better things to do?"
"just wave, you curmudgeon."
"he won't see us, you know," edmund mutters.
but they wave anyway and, to susan's delight, peter waves back.
