SANSA

Sansa Stark sat upon her little table in the school cafeteria completely content in how her life had changed in the past year. Queen Sansa was no more and she couldn't be surrounded with a more diverse group of people but she absolutely adored it!

She no longer held court on the table in the middle of the cafe where the popular kids where mainly because she had caused their downfall. She was hated, she was shone, she was pointed at but in the end she did what was right by herself, always with the support of her family and true friends. But enough of reminiscing of those sad times with fairy tales gone wrong and wicked mothers and lets focus on the people she was sitting with...

Curiously enough this past year the primarily thing Sansa had learned was how to be independent, not to depend on anyone else yet here she was; cocooned between her two older brother, never far away from her with the promise of never letting anyone harm her ever again. On her left sat Robb boyish, easy going Robb, currently deep in conversation with their friend Theon about the pro's and con's of skipping the last period. On her right sat silent but sweet Jon, who sensing her gaze looked at her; gave her a wink and went back to his book and salad.

"Sansa... am I doing it right?"- Her thoughts were interrupted by one of her newest friends Hot Pie who still seemed to stutter every time he talked to her.

"You're doing excellent for it being your first time" The boy was so sweet Sansa didn't dare to tell him his stitches were horrible, she already planed on switching his would-be attempt gloves with one of her own for Home Ec class.

"I suck at this!"- He sighted "At least I couldn't possibly be worse than Arya's right?"-

"I'd pay you fifty bucks if you say that to her face"- Gendry said while playing with his big plate of food.

"Are you kidding? You're the only one stupid enough to tease Arya Stark. I like my testicles untouched thank you very much... I mean, I wont let Arya touch them. But I want other girls to touch them, like I want them to touch my testicles I... ok, that came of wrong. Uhmmm... I'll see you all in class"- The poor guy mumbled away in embarrassment as the whole table laughed at his awkwardness.

Sansa remained studying Gendry, part of her new friends but not exactly her friend. He was Arya's! Even though he was older and hung around with their brothers there was a sense of belonging when it came to him, he was a given. Where Arya was; he would follow. He was a nice guy, he had to be to put up with her little sister who was a hand-full but he also had unlimited patience which came in handy with Arya. How was he physically? Well, there was a reason Margaery Tyrell was making a beeline towards their table.

"Sansa... where were you last night and why didn't you come to my slumber party?"- Margaery asked her but was practically on top of Gendry whom was trying to scoot away failing miserably as dear old Marg grabbed his arm and linked it with hers as if it was the most normal thing ever. Gendry was redder than her and Robb's hair combined.

"I just wasn't feeling it Marg. The boys had a Walking Dead marathon so I stayed home with them, just trying something different"

"Zombies? Zombies Sansa? Ugh, are you trying to make her go all 'Arya' on me?"- Margaery said grabbing one of Gendry's french fries and throwing it a Jon who just scowled back.

"There's nothing wrong with Arya!"- Gendry spoke up disentangling his arm free and looking around. "Where is she by the way? Lunchtime is almost over!"- He asked genuinely concerned.

"She'll come around at some point. She never misses a meal"- Theon said as the conversation flowed freely around the table.

"Anyway... Sansa I am still your most fabulous friend. If you are going to have zombie marathons you could at least invite me"-

"Zombies and blood aren't exactly your thing Marge"

"No... but I am quite ajustable!"- She said batting her eyes at Gendry.

Margaery was the only friend she had left from the infamous It Crowd. When Joffrey started to spread rumors about Sansa Margaery was the only one who branded him not only as a liar but did some damage herself spreading the word that Joffrey had some trouble getting it up. She was sweet and over the top but Sansa cared for her just as well, she was another piece of her weird little click.

Margaery adored Sansa's brother's like another sister but Gendry? You could see in Margaery's eyes that she wanted Gendry, a bed, and a bottle of honey, nothing else! She had lusted after Gendry ever since he transferred from Kings Landing but he didn't pay her attention. Come to think about it, Gendry didn't pay attention to anyone but Arya.

"Well aren't you the picture of the life of a high-school student"- Robb said as Arya finally joined them to lunch. She was dragging her backpack on the floor, you could actually see her socks through the holes on her chucks, her hair could easily be a pterodactyls nest and yes; she was purple! Her face, her arms, her clothes, were all purple!

"Uhmmm I know purple was the color of the year but Hon; did you have to take it that far?"- Margaery said eyeing her up and down earning a predictable 'fuck off' from Arya.

"Hey... What happened?"- Jon asked finally putting his book down.

"Well..."- Arya spoke already with her mouth full eating off of Gendry plate who was looking at her intently.

"I was at chemistry lab and I had all my ingredients for some weird shit Professor Qyburn had us doing but I had to take a piss. I go, do number one and when I get back I mixed everything and I damned near burned the whole building down"-

"Arya you have got to be more careful. You could have hurt yourself!"- Jon said always caring for her well being but Gendry interrupted him.

"Bullshit!"- Sansa's eyes went wide at Gendry's sudden change of demeanor. He was pissed off. "You know the Periodic Table like the back of your hand! What happened?"-

"I know right?!"- Arya replied with her mouth full which surprisingly Sansa ignored. She was more focused on what she was eating. At first she though 'Gendry is big'; that's why he needs a plate filled with food enough for two but when Arya sat down and began to eat you could see that his plate (still filled with ridiculously amount of food) was divided in two different menus; one for him and one for her; Arya's side was actually filled with her favorites and they didn't even serve then at the cafeteria. That was sweet of him...

"So I turn around and I see Ramsay fucking Bolton laughing his ass off so of course I went and smashed a petri dish on his head"-

"Did someone see you?"-

"Theon!" Sansa ever the Minnie Catelyn was never ok with violence.

"As always I let my temper get the best of me and I did it right in front of Qyburn"- They all groaned in unison. "Yup, instant detention so don't tell Mom, just tell her I have fencing!"-

"But what about Ramsay? Wasn't he held responsible? You could have gotten hurt!"- Robb said annoyed as always when Ramsay's name popped up.

"Nobody saw him, scare tactics... whatever."-

The bell rang so they all said their goodbyes. Margaery was lingering behind Gendry but Sansa dragged her away not so fast so she could hear what Arya and Gendry where talking about since they hadn't left the table yet.

"Here... take these granola bars and pop tarts I have, you barely ate anything"- He told her digging in his backpack.

"Ugh... don't remind me. I'm starving and Geeeeeeeeen"; she whined but it was a girly whine, Sansa was impressed. "You promised me you where going to take me dirt bike riding today"-

"I know, we can do it some other day"-

"Liar! You told me the guys that own the bikes are supposed to pick then up from the shop tomorrow"- She pouted and by now Margaery was listening and looking as well.

Arya had her lips all pouts as Gendry leaned in to caress her face, and check this out; ARYA ACTUALLY LEANED INTO HIS TOUCH!

"I promised you we where going dirty bike riding so we'll go dirt bike riding ok?! Now go to your class before you get in more trouble. I'll see you later"-

Sansa and Margaery actually had to duck under a table to not be seen as they were both unable to move.

"WOW!" Sansa said impressed at how her little sister had managed to snag one of Winterfell's hottest guys.

"I know right?! Arya Stark got the guy before me... I need a drink"- Margaery said looking at Sansa then going into a laughing fit together.

...

After the bell rang signaling the end of yet another school day the Stark siblings found themselves alone in the parking lot waiting for Gendry to arrive. Normally Robb would drive then back but his car was missing after a weekend out with Theon; it was kind of a'don't ask - don't tell kind of thing'. 40 minutes of waiting and still no sign of Gendry.

"Where the hell is Waters? I just got a text that someone towed my car and his bringing it back to the house!"- Robb said praying to all the Old God's and the New that their parents weren't home yet. Fat chance.

"Hey; isn't that Ramsay?"- Jon said as they looked over to see Ramsay walking to his car not only spotting the same shade of purple Arya had all over him but he also had a busted lip and a bruised eye.

"Uhmmmm... you know; I forgot something in my locker. I'll be right back!" Sansa said practically running back into the school. Her heart pounding in excitement as she was ever the hopeless romantic. Yes; if she ended up seeing what she though she was going to see it was somewhat barbaric but still, it was soooo romantic in their way.

The janitor ignored the crazy girl doing the happy dance in the empty school as he cleaned the floors. Leave it to Arya; the I hate boys Arya, the ewwwww kissing is gross Arya, the I'll be a proud owner of 37 cats Arya to revive Sansa's hope after such damaging experience with Joffrey.

Inside the detention room, right at the back; Gendry Waters sat with purple hands and bruised knuckles while her little sister sat happily beside him eating pop tarts.

And just like that Sansa Stark started to believed in love again.
