BECAUSE the game of hide-and-seek was still going on， it took Edmund and Lucy some time to find the others．But when at last they were all together（which happened in the long room， where the suit of armour was），Lucy burst out：
“Peter ！ Susan ！ It’s all true．Edmund has seen it too．There is a country you can get to through the wardrobe．Edmund and I both got in．We met one another in there，in the wood．Go on， Edmund；tell them all about it．”
“What’s all this about，Ed ？”said Peter．
And now we come to one of the nastiest things in this story． Up to that moment Edmund had been feeling sick，and sulky， and annoyed with Lucy for being right，but he hadn’t made up his mind what to do．When Peter suddenly asked him the question he decided all at once to do the meanest and most spiteful thing he could think of．He decided to let Lucy down．
“Tell us，Ed，”said Susan．
And Edmund gave a very superior look as if he were far older than Lucy （there was really only a year’s difference）and then a little snigger and said，“Oh，yes，Lucy and I have been playing-pretending that all her story about a country in the wardrobe is true. just for fun，of course．There’s nothing there really．”
Poor Lucy gave Edmund one look and rushed out of the room.
Edmund，who was becoming a nastier person every minute， thought that he had scored a great success，and went on at once to say，“There she goes again．What’s the matter with her ？ That’s the worst of young kids，they always-”
“Look here，”said Peter，turning on him savagely，“shut up ！ You’ve been perfectly beastly to Lu ever since she started this nonsense about the wardrobe，and now you go playing games with her about it and setting her off again．I believe you did it simply out of spite．”
