Epilogue: Breaking news.
The shout brought her running into the room, "What? What is it? What's wrong?!"
"Cat, oh gods, Cat, the paper. Tell me it's not true!"
Catelyn Stark took the newspaper from her husband's limp fingers. The image on the page was unmistakable, and its headline screamed at her in bold, black letters: JUST MARRIED: LANNISTER TYCOON AND STARK HEIRESS!
"Cat?"
She gazed into her husband's pale face, "Ned, I think we may have been mistaken about the identity of the father of our grandchild."
Ned nodded, looking miserable. "Cat, what are we going to do?"
"The only thing we can do: we'll invite our new son-in-law to dinner."
There was a loud thump that sounded not unlike a body hitting the floor. Cat looked down at the passed out form of her husband with vague amusement that soon left her as she read the short article again. She sighed heavily, "Well, only one thing for it." Cat knew that out of all her children, there was one that could be counted on to corroborate the story.
"RICKON!"
Author's Note: That's all for this one, folks! Thank you so much for bearing with me! And a special thank you to Tommyginger, who decided to check on me to make sure that I was still among the land of the living. Now that this fic is done, I feel that I might be able to start writing for fun again, but it may not last long. I've got another semester coming up, and that means more classes, more papers, and more grading! Thank you again for reading! You guys are the best!
