Chapter 2

Jason Lannister

'Kill me now.'

That is the first thing come to mind. Jason Lannister is sitting next to his father and uncle Tyrion. He was not interested in seeing this awful image. Robert Baratheon is shamefully drinking and pulls a northern woman onto his lap. He saw him kissing her in front of his wife.

Jason also, noticed the northern girl name Arya Stark is fidgeted in her seat and looked at him intently like she wanted to say something, but couldn't.

Jason sighed and waved to her. "Speak."

Arya asked, "Is it true?"

Jason looked at her with a blank expression, but his maroon eyes show that he is intrigued by her curiosity.

"Is that true?"

Arya took a deep breath. And she said,

"Is it true that you killed a rapist and save both the mother and her child?" Jason looked at her and showed his mouth twitch almost a smirk.

"Is it true that you killed a lion?" Arya continued as he could tell that she did not want to stutter in his presence. "Was it true that you bear the burning marks of Wildfire, my lord?" Jason showed his red hand to her which is proof that he did survive a wildfire.

"Yes, to the first question. It was because he was going to be put to death or head to the wall. Second, yes I did kill a lion," He leaned into her eyes. "It wasn't an ordinary lion. It was called a Nemean Lion. You could say that he was bigger than life itself." Arya listened to him so intently as he still shows her his hand of his survival of Wildfire. "Third, I did not think that I would survive. All I thought was to kill those Ironborns that would kidnap Princess Myrcella and stole Wildfire from Kinglanding. Yet I did survive it, but that did not stop my Grandfather or the King to want to go War with them."

Arya looked at his hand and saw admiration in her eyes.

Jason started to forget what it like was to smile and laugh innocently as a child. He wonders will no one be able to see what his pain is marked deeply into his heart. People and he are beginning to believe that Jason will be just like Tywin Lannister once he grows older. To be honest, it scared him. No, he hated that thought of it.

"Also, no formalities, call me Jason."

Arya nodded happily. He is guessing that she does not like being formal either.

Arya hesitated to ask, but she did.

"Did it hurt?"

Jason looked to his red hand but shrugged off.

"In the beginning, yes," Jason briefly smirked and added, "But not anymore."

"Are you truly the greatest archer in the world?"

Jason saw a childlike curiously in Arya. It amuses him and guesses what he is not bored with her at all.

"No, that belongs to my teacher, Anguy. He is the greatest archer in the world. I am still a novice." Jason said in humble. Indeed, Jason could never beat his master Anguy even if he put it all his effort. He is content with aiming his bow and arrow just right on target.

"You know," Arya stated as he looked at her.

"You are not as what I had expected. I thought you are more…resilient. Not that you don't!" Arya waved to assured him which Jason nodded. "It's just you talked to me more and you didn't talk to any of my family. Why?"

Jason gave a thoughtful and he turned quiet for a little while as he thinks. Perhaps she is straighter forward? Or maybe he is interested in Norther's because they said his mother was one too?

"That is a very good question, Arya." Jason looked in her eyes and said, "It could be that you are not like any girls I have met before. I have never met a girl who most likely eager to meet me and not…him." He pointed to his cousin, Prince Joffrey Baratheon who is lying about his hunting games. By Gods, what a buffoon his cousin is.

"I have taken the offer of talking to you is because you don't bore me to death. Girls that I have met in the South are either dimwitted or no personality at all. Don't get me started on Highgarden. I have met Lady Margaery Tyrell before, but she can't even keep my interest enough to intend to seek marriage. I simply can't imagine her as my wife and she is too stuck up. She smiles too and she believes that she is clever than anyone. I don't care what Grandfather's intention of my marrying her, but she will try to make me a puppet than a partner." Jason took a moment to breathe as he began to realize that he confessed what he feels about it.

"Wow," Arya seemed not to be disturbed by him.

"You are not disturbed by it." Jason had to ask.

"Nope, I understand." Arya nodded her head. "Everyone is expecting that girls like Sansa to be a perfect Lady," She mocked on the 'Lady' part. "The girls who like to sew, sing and dance. Why can't girls do what other boys do?" Arya complained about which Jason nodded about her words. He agrees about what she said. Sadly, the world wanted to be ignorant and refused to let go of tradition because of fear had to pull them back.

"Question," Jason pointed out to Arya, "Do you know how to wield a sword?"

Arya's sad expression had changed into a happy one, "Stick 'em with the pointy end." Jason puffs he breathes then he opened his mouth and laugh.

The majority of people are surprised that the great Black Lion laughed. Jaime is surprised that someone made him laugh. Robb Stark smiled as he saw his sister Arya made the Great Lion laugh. Tyrion raised his cup to Arya and smirked.

Jason calms himself down. "That is sort of like that." He chuckles as he saw Arya smile. He began to like this Arya Stark.

Perhaps this made his trip worthwhile to go.

After all, she is the first girl who made him smile in a long time.


Phew, that was a good beginning. Next chapter, Arya's thought and she introduce Jon Snow to Jason Lannister. Bring on comments and reviews.
