Chapter 9: Ramsay

Ramsay smiled to himself as he sat at the table, he had accompanied his father to a business dinner hosted by his father's boss, Eddard Stark. All the Stark business associates and their families were there.

'Of course so too is Eddard Stark's family...which means.' He thought with a grin. 'Arya is here too.'

Ramsay was notorious for his behaviour around women, but had never officially being charged or caught or anything. Yet despite this, he was bored with most women, mainly due to their docility and weakness.

He was infatuated with one girl however, Arya Stark, a girl who was anything but docile and one he knew he would have. He recalled a time where he thought of her as the perfect girl for him; she had been so cruel, dark, angry, yet he had seen it as passion, strength, of something to take control of.

He shook his head. 'She's softer now...but she's still got enough spunk to be worthy.'

Those were his thoughts, until Arya entered the room at that moment, in a dress.

'The fuck?!' He thought as he saw her pour herself a drink and casually start talking to her sister. 'That's not like her at all. What has happened to her, this isn't right, my girl would never act like this?'

He was determined to get answers.

At that moment however, there was a knock at the door; Sansa went to answer it. Ramsay ignored it, it couldn't be anyone important; he continued to glare at Arya, shocked she would even wear a dress, would fall so low.

She was smiling, even laughing as she listened to her younger brothers as they spoke to each other. Then her expression brightened as she looked up, towards the entrance to the room. Ramsay turned and saw Sansa had returned, with her was a tall, muscular man in his twenties; with shaggy black hair and blue eyes.

Ramsay was suspicious of this newcomer; wondering just what he was doing here. He soon got his answer as Arya hurried over to him and, without any warning, they kissed.

Ramsay could only watch in shock and, as the evening wore on, he saw how much Arya had changed, being lighter, happier, and disgustingly low in his opinions and hopes. She remained with that unknown man, the two talking laughing, sharing kisses. Ramsay even thought they were holding hands under the table.

'This isn't right, what the fuck is wrong with this girl, this isn't the Arya I know. She's become something different. Something...not right.' He thought in anger.

He'd have to sort this, he needed to have serious words with her.

He waited until the man, he'd overheard his name now, Gendry, was away to the bathroom. He knew his limitations and if he wasn't careful, he was sure that Gendry could and would punch him out, needing only one hand to do it. Arya glared as she turned to find Ramsay, of all people, blocking her path.

"Do you mind, you're in my way." She snapped.

"What are you thinking?" He snarled.

She narrowed her eyes, confused. "What?"

He shook his head. "Look at you, you've fallen so low. You think it's funny that you're doing this to me. You are my girl and I won't have you disgracing yourself by becoming so average, and..."

He didn't even get started on his tirade about Gendry. Before he knew it, he had been cut off, yelping in pain as Arya had punched him square in the jaw.

"Shut up, you've gone mad." She snapped.

"Oh have I…?" He began savagely.

Arya shook her head and snarled. "Listen you creep, I was never yours, never will be, so do we a favour and fuck off, my love life isn't any of your business."

She then turned and stalked off, Ramsay shook her head. He'd let her ruin herself with that man, she'd proven she just wasn't worthy of him, it was her loss, he'd just find someone who was. Leave her pining for what she'd missed and now, could never have.
