Chapter 9
Kevan Lannister smiled lightly, although he couldn't deny he was surprised. At this present moment in time, with Lancel and Sansa coming around again and revealing the truth. That they were dating, Kevan and Dorna had suspected it; but the revelation was still quite a surprise. So it was that, after some talking and finding out more about their relationship, Kevan sat talking with Lancel, meanwhile Sansa and Dorna were bonding over a shared interest in cross-stitching.
"I must admit Lancel, I am surprised." He remarked. "Don't get me wrong, I am happy for you and Sansa. I just, never expected you and Sansa of all people to end up together."
Lancel smiled lightly, nodding. "Don't worry dad, I know exactly what you meant. I'm actually surprised about it myself and, overjoyed too."
They sat quietly for a while, continuing to watch Sansa and Dorna as they talked animatedly. Sansa was even admiring Dorna's latest cross-stitching work.
"Truth be told..." Lancel then said suddenly. "I'm, I'm lucky to have Sansa, after everything I've done. I just, I hope I prove worthy, of her love and forgiveness."
Kevan gently reached out to give his son a reassuring squeeze on the shoulder. "You have more than earned all that Lancel. You keep doubting yourself; but trust me, Sansa loves you and you love her and the two of you deserve it."
Lancel sighed but nodded; he just hoped his father was right.
Finally, noticing the time, Dorna turned to Sansa.
"Sansa dear, I was wondering, would you care to join us for dinner?"
Sansa bit her lip. "That's, very nice of you Mrs. Lannister, but I shouldn't impose, I..."
She looked over at Lancel and could see he was equally as torn as she was.
Dorna shook her head. "It's not trouble, really, we'd be more than happy to have you with us for tonight."
"Of course, Sansa." Kevan added. "Right Lancel?"
Startled Lancel stammered. "Um, y-yeah...sure. Sansa?"
She smiled and nodded, agreeing at last. "Alright, gladly."
So it was that dinner began, while she wanted to help Dorna insisted that Sansa take it easy, she was the guest after all. So Sansa sat and waited, watching with amazement as Lancel helped his mother with the cooking. He was remarkably good at it and that just impressed Sansa even more.
"Sansa."
She turned at the voice and smiled warmly at the young girl who was now next to her. "Hello Janei."
"You and Lany are in love?" She queried innocently; Sansa nodded and Janei continued. "Are you and Lany going to have babies?"
Sansa felt herself flush red, looking over she saw Lancel was blushing furiously too.
Quickly collecting herself Sansa cleared her throat.
"Not...Not for quite a while yet." she said. "If the Gods will it."
She looked over at Lancel who gave her a small smile. They could see Kevan and Dorna both smirking at that; as were the twins who had also overheard. Thankfully further embarrassment was averted by dinner finally being ready and they soon were all seated around the table, beginning their meal. After dinner Sansa once again found herself face to face with yet more proof that despite her initial impressions of him, Lancel had always been an important member of his family, particularly to his siblings. Even right now she could see him, helping Martyn and Willem with his homework; even thought Martyn was the family brainbox, it was something he struggled with, but Lancel had done well in.
"Sansa, wanna play?" Janei suddenly asked her.
She was still so innocent, unaware of the embarrassment her earlier question had caused. Sansa couldn't help but smile at that.
"Sure." She agreed.
Janei grinned and Sansa gladly followed the little girl; happy to play with Lancel's sister, particularly while Lancel was helping his brothers.
