It's dark outside when she wakes. She doesn't know how long she's been asleep, only that she wants to take a bath. As no one is attending her rooms , she stands up softly and is about to leave when she hears a voice. " Where are you going?" To her surprise it's Rhaenys, lying on her couch. " I was going to take a bath." Lysei says. Rhaenys nods. " Let me see if the maesters think you can."
She sends a servant away and than uncomfortable silece falls over them. Lysei doesn't know where to look and Rhaenys doesn't seem in the mood to speak until the silverhaired queen sighs. " Come sit." Lysei approaches. When she sits, she notices Rhaenys's foot is bandaged. " Are you hurt? You broke your foot? Are you okay?" Rhaenys shrugs. " Well, in the battle you know. Doesn't make it easy to choose shoes though. " I...I'm sorry." Rhaenys sighs, her pleasant smile growing serious.
" Listen, I know it's been a rocky start for all of us. I know you don't like me." -" I never said I didn't like you." Lysei mutters. " But neither did you tell the opposite." Anger rises in both of them but Lysei gritts her teeth and pushes it down. " I might not have been the most forthcoming person."Rhaenys snorts. " You could say that." Lysei furrows a brow. " Then again," Rhaenys says' Neither were we to you."
"So what do you say, partner." Rhaenys drawls. " What about we start over? One step at a time?" Lysei nods. " Okay."
" But first let's get you a bath. You are in need of a make over and in need of trying the Targaryen bathing products. I have this amazing new product to wash my hair and it smells amazing." Rhaenys helps Lysei bathe and wash her hair and indeed the soapy substance to wash her hair smells indeed good. Afterwards, Lysei's feels clean and soft and she is wrapped into a soft towel.
Rhaenys smiles and speaks to her while she gets dressed, quickly getting over her embarassement as Rhaenys brings out an instrument otp lay while Lysei get's dressed into her nightgown.
It's a first step to fixing something that is broken. There are still many more to take yet it's a start.
