Catelyn
The peaceful sleep of the aurban haired woman was quickly disrupted by the sound of a ringing phone.
"Ned" she said whilst shaking the sleeping man beside her. Tiredly trying to wake her husband up she put a little more force into her shaking.
"Cat what is it?" Ned answered still drunk on sleep. The office had been busier this week since another fight broke loose between Rickard Karstark and Jon Umber due to some miscommunication between the business partners. Leaving her poor husband and his firm to try and dissolve the situation.
"The phones ringing,go pick it up". Grumbling onto his feet while complaining about how it was too early in the morning to be up and who calls at 2:13 a.m. Ned went over and got the phone that was placed ontop of her dressing table.
"Hello" Ned said into the phone. " Robb what is it?".
The mention of her eldest son quickly got her sitting up straight on the bed watching her husband speak to their son.
Robb after graduating from med school in White Harbour had left the North and his home to move to Volantis with his girlfriend Talisa Maegr who was also doing her med school at White Harbour.
They had been going out for a while in secret until Robb finaly introduced her to the family as his. Not that he was doing a great job of keeping it a secret if Sansa already knew after their first date.
Catelyn impression of Talisa was that she was a very smart girl. She had great ambition and the drive to make something of her medical career which she respected greatly. Talisa put much work in graduating from med school which payed out greatly when she was offered a job at a very prestigious hospital in Volantis which she readily accepted.
At these knews Cat thought that would be a goodbye to "Tobb" or "Rolisa" as Sansa and Arya used to say referring to their relationship but was hit with quite the surprise when Robb said he would also be moving with Talisa to Volantis.
She would be lying if she said she was surprised by Robb's declaration but she knew how much he loved Talisa and he would do everything so that they could be together. Something he shared with his younger sister Arya but unfortunately things didn't work out in the end.
"Whose dead ?" She was immediately drawn out of her thoughts about her eldest by Ned's question.
"Ned" she croaked. Fear settling in her bones like some one had dunked a bucket of ice cold water onto her.
Hurriedly getting out of bed she went and stood next to time immediately wrapping her arms around after seeing the sad expression on his face.
" Alright. Thanks for letting me know. When you finaly see her please tell her that i love her. Bye son ".
Placing the phone back down. Ned wrapped his hands around her shoulders weaving his hand into her hair in a comforting manner.
Trying to calm her nerves down she asked who had died.
"Arya's boyfriend Jaqen was involved in a car accident. Heading home when a drunk driver skipped a red light bumped into him right across the street from his apartment."
"Oh no Ned Arya...how is she. Is she ok did Robb say anything?". She asked trying to keep her emotions in check.
The couldn't possibly imagine how her little girl must be feeling.
"Robb said she wasn't doing alright so his he's booking a flight to Lorath to be with Arya and try convince her to come home".
Nodding her head she couldn't help but feel a tinge of guilt even though it was uncalled for. She's been wanting Arya to come visit but never thought she'd be coming home under such heartbreaking circumstances. Her only hope was that Robb would get there quickly and comfort his sister if she couldn't do it herself.
Jon
Waking up in the early hours of the morning never bothered the army vet since having to always be on the training grounds early due to Commander Joer Morning's gruelling exercise.
And it certainly didn't bother him now since he was released from the army and moved back to winter city and his new job as a paramedic at the hospital.
Working his usual day shifts and occasionally the night shifts.
What truly bothered him this early morning though was receiving the tear filled phone call of his usually brave and tough cousin telling him about the sudden death of her long term boyfriend Jaqen H'ghar. With whom she had moved all the way from Wintercity to Lorath for.
Thinking back to when they started daring brought a smile to his face remembering how Arya had kept Jaqen as secret because she didn't want to make a huge deal out of their relationship which in turn had the family thinking that Arya's relationship was just a little crush.
And how wrong they were when Arya broke the news that she would be moving to Lorath with her boyfriend. Which caused major reactions from everyone else who didn't put much thought into Arya's relationship with the nicely accented young man.
The 18 year old high school graduate had landed herself a job with the local soccer club the 'Lorathi Rangers' women's club as a defender which she had readily accepted given her passion for the sports. With the added bonus of being with Jaqen
Jon would always remember the dinner when Arya broke the news and was bombarded with questions upon questions about her relationship but in the end she was adamant on going with Jaqen that no one truly had anything else to do but accept it.
And after spending some time with the couple saw how truly happy Arya was and how they both made each other happy nobody had it in them to put up a fight.
The sound of barefeet padding on the wooden floors had him turning his head eyes locking with Ygritte's as she made her way towards where he was seated on the kitchen counter top.
Her red hair disselved and wearing a large 'white walkers' shirt probably 5 sizes larger than her making more a mini dress than a shirt.
Shooting her with a small smile which she returned with a little grin of her own she made her way towards him wrapping her arms around his torso touching foreheads with him.
"How's your cousin doing?"
With a little nod of his head and a sigh escaping his lips he answered the red haired saying "She's managed to come down a bit but she's probably still shocked even now. I have half the mind to book a flight to Lorath to be with her."
Ygritte knew how close Jon and Arya. Standing side-by-side you couldn't tell that they were actually cousins and not siblings. They both had many things in common even though Arya was a bit more expressive and wild compared to Jon's own introverted and calm demeanour but both seemed to find common ground with each other.
"You should though I can hold down the fort for a while but you better bring me something cool from your Lorath" she said smiling up at him." I know I would want Tormund with me if I ever lost you" the last part said with her tightening her hold on him.
"Your like her second big brother, plus I think Robb will need some help with her as well". She did have a point. Arya could be a bit stubborn when her emotions were all over the place.
"You sure?"
With a peck on the his lips she answered with a nod of her head. "I'm sure babe"
"Alright I love you" she smiled at that with a wicked grin "I know".
