Summary:
What a pretty image you two make...
"You're staring again, my love."
"Aye," his voice was a soft drawl and she could sense the undercurrent of amusement to it, "I know."
Surely enough when she looked up there was a soft smile on his face. His lips quirking up in that expression he held just for her and she found the image made more soothing by the firelight and shadows waltzing across his form. Arya gave him her own smile in return, a small soothing thing, that had a hint of shyness to go along with her light blush.
He chuckled and her shyness, blush and smile grew the slightest bit so she shifted her head to move her hair onto her face, letting it block some of what he could see from where he was contentedly leaning on the wall of their rooms while she sat near the fire on top of various furs and surrounded by pillows.
She felt her dress near her chest shift but before she could move to accommodate her new position Jon was already in front of her, one hand slipping beneath her curtain of back length hair to move it away from her face and drape it across her other free shoulder.
"Now that's better."
"You're such a charmer." She made sure that he could see her playful eye roll and gifted him a more charming smile when he trailed his lips from her forehead to the bridge of her nose.
"Only for you."
He paused.
She could feel his smile rise against her skin and that in turn caused her to gain her own. Arya pressed it against his neck as she nuzzled him, making sure to leave a trail with her lips from one side of his neck to the other that was only interrupted when she pressed brief, sweet, loving kisses in between her journey.
"Well….I guess it would be plural now."
"Indeed." She lifted her free hand to pull him down and against her, Jon easily folding his legs to half lie and half sit in a comfortable position in one smooth motion where he then silently opened his arm closest to her. Wordlessly she shimmied her way over until they were joined together at their sides, careful of the bundle in her arms nursing against her breast, half of her body laying against his; with his shoulder at her back and her head firmly resting against his neck. "It should be, my dear husband."
The Stark princess turned her head to press her lips against his neck again before facing forward, letting his chin rest against the top of her head. She could feel his smile as he wrapped his arm around her, pulling her even closer to him - if that was even possible - and she was sure he could feel her own smile as she relaxed against him, her head half resting against his shoulder and half against his neck where she could breathe him in.
"I love you."
Their words were as synchronized as their hearts and so were their thoughts as they decided to stay like that for hours upon hours, talking while watching the roaring fire and the frozen landscape visible from the window mix together in their vision, moving only occasionally to better press their lips upon the other or to better give a caress, making sure to be always be mindful of their little pup shifting in their arms.
WHY
WON'T
YOU
TWO
CONTROL
YOURSELVES
?!
Nah, I doesn't actually bother me. I quite like that they're like that especially when other people might catch them in those moments (well I say catch but they might just do it unabashedly) and wonder if this is the same person.
Cold with strangers and even those known to them in a way but super warm towards each other.
Seriously, I write them in opposite sides of the room, I blink, and now they're in each others arms and I can't/won't change it because it just makes sense. I've written about this before but man these two would probably be so touchy with each other in their reunion given that they were already quite physically open with one another.
Maybe I should just write some pure, unabashed smut of these two? Here or in a separate story.
In other news this gave me an idea where I show them being their sickeningly sweet touchy selves from the pov of other sources.
Anyways you get two simultaneous chapter releases because:
1-
This one is quite short
2-
I've been inspired
3-
I wanted to and I like your support so consider this a thanks. Also have another reason but that will be explained more in the next chapter's notes.
About the story: nothing complicated, just some fluff.
