Chapter 4: New feelings
Naida was sitting next to Margery looking at the Lords and Ladies as they were stuffing tier faces and getting drunk. The feast was grand and many Lord and Ladies came to greet them. They were also Royalty and it was also Robb who won the war.
Naida looked at her husband who was speaking with some Lord and he was quiet drunk and was swaying on his feet. Naida closed her eyes and took a calming breath. It was fine she told herself. His drinking was not a problem. She tried to calm down but his increased drinking did not go unnoticed.
"Naida calm down. Everyone is drunk here." Naida opened her eyes and looked at Margery who had an encouraging smile.
"I know, it is just we barely spoke to each other for a fortnight. He had a problem with my mothering. He thought i was treating Ned like a little boy but he is still only ten name days old" Naida said to Margery who took her hand in hers.
"Robb was just making sure you do not coddle him too much. He need to be hard to be a King. Ned needs to be ready for every situation." Margery said and Naida closed her eyes and nodded.
"I know but he is my first born. My boy. I cannot just let him go." Naida said and Margery smiled at her
"I know what you mean. It seems like my daughter talk only of her marriage and when will she wed. She wants to have a family of her own." Margery said and Naida giggled at that.
"Where did the time go Margery. Our children are so big now. I feel old." Naida said and Margery slapped her chuckling.
"I am not old. I am two and six and that is not that old. I still will birth man children and so will you and they will keep you young." Margery said and Naida touched her belly with affection.
Sansa had just stood from the chair and began walking out of the dinner hall. It was the first time she was in Kings Landing since she escaped it and she felt so out of place here. She felt like Cersei would soon come and take her to a bedchamber and make Jeoffrey rape her. She felt like she will be beaten soon. She began running from the great hall somewhere just to get out of here. She needed fresh air.
Sansa did not see anybody in front of her but she felt the impact it was like she had hit a wall of stone. It took her breath away. She did not hit the ground but when she opened her eyes she was looking at green eyes. Her own blue ones widened as she tried to scramble to her feet but she fell once again hearing the man under her grunt. She wanted to fall in the deepest of the seven hells to stay away from this shame.
"I am so sorry about this. I am so stupid and so clumsy." Sansa tried again to stand up and she succeeded this time around. She could not look at the man but she heard him chuckle. She was so red from her embarrassment.
"There is no need to apologise My Lady. It was just a misfortunate accident. Also it i not everyday i have a beautiful woman falling on me so i should count myself lucky." The man had a gentle voice. Sansa took a deep breath and dared to look at him the man had a gentle smile in his face. He was quite good looking with chestnut hair and a soft moustache. He had gentle green eyes.
"I am so sorry My Lord. I really did not mean for this to happen." Sansa said and the man held up his hand to stop her.
"Please My Lady, no harm was done. I feel quite all right. Are you hurt My lady?" The man asked and leaning on a beautiful wooden walking stick. She quickly averted her yes from it not to seem rude by staring at it.
"Oh no My Lord i am well. I did not get hurt." Sansa said with a pleasant smile.
"That is what i like to hear. May i ask why are you running away from the feats My Lady. " The man said.
"It was too crowded in there My Lord. I just needed the fresh air." Sansa said looking down at the floor and playing with her dress.
"Well may i accompany you. It is dark and not Lady should be alone at this time of night." The man said and Sansa looked at him with big eyes.
"Oh i could not ask this of you My Lord. It is too much trouble." Sansa said and the man shook his head.
"I would not sleep at night if i let a Lady go out at this time of night by herself. My sister is the Queen but she loves me so she will understand." The man said and Sansa looked at him with wide eyes.
"So you are.." Sansa did not get to finish as the man chuckled.
"Yes Lady Sansa i am Willas Tyrell, your betrothed." The man said with glee in his voice. Sansa blushed once again and hid her face in her hands.
"I am such a fool. It was not like i wanted to meet you My Lord." Sansa said looking at Willas but he just waved it off.
"It will be the story to tell the children one day. May i offer you my hand." Willas said and Sansa accepted it with a smile. They walked together in a comfortable silence.
"How do you find the Capital City My Lady." Willas asked and Sansa stiffened. Willas seemed to notice it.
"You do not have to speak of it if you do not want to my Lady." Willas said looking down at Sansa.
"I would prefer not to My Lord. Not yet anyway" Sansa said and Willas nodded before looking up at the stars and sighing.
"The sky is very beautiful tonight." Willas said and Sansa looked up to find that the sky was full of stars.
"You see those two stars up there." Willas pointed to the stars and Sansa nodded.
"Scholars names them Orpheus and Eurydice. They fell in love and were happy but there was another who wanted Eurydice. His name was Aristaeus. He pursues her despite her coldness to him. One day when she was feeling from Aristaeus she ran into a pit of snakes and she dies. Orpheus was so distraught that when he played his harp and sand all of the Gods and creatures wept. He decided that he will not live without his love so he travelled to the deepest of the seven hells to get his love back and he succeeded. The only condition that the Gods had was that he should walk in front of her and not look at her until they have reached upper world. When Orpheus was already there he looked at his love only to find that she had disappeared this time forever and it was because she was not in the upper world with him. He had lost his love." Willas said looking down from the sky at Sansa who was listening to him intently. She also looked at Willas and smiled at him.
"It is a very sad story. He went into that trouble and he could not wait couple more second and they would be able to live together once more." Sansa said shaking her head.
"Yes the story tells us that haste is not a good think. Good think come to those who wait." Willas said Sansa shivered. It was cold and she did not bring a cloak with her.
"Here take my jacket and let get inside." Willas said and covering Sansa with a jacket. She smiled at him as they made their way back to the Great Hall.
Laughter could be heard as the girl was dancing. Her grey eyes sparkling with merriment. She took her younger brother and together they danced until they had not more strength. She sat down at her table and took a long gulp of her wine.#
"Watch it there. You do not want to get drunk do you?" A make voice said and Arya looked up to see deep blue eyes staring at her. She narrowed her eyes at him but she smiled.
"My name is Edric Baratheon." he young man said and sat down next to her taking a gulp from his goblet.
"So you are the late King Robert's bastard." Arya said and the man chuckled.
"Yes i am but it seems that King Jon legitimised me as i am the only one to carry the Baratheon name." The young man sad with a smirk and Arya blushed. It may be the wine or something else but she found this man very attractive. She felt a fluttering in her stomach.
"So i heard you are good with a sword. I would like to see that one day." Edric said and Arya put the goblet down and looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"Pick a time and place and i will be there to put you in your place." Arya said in a low and dangerous voice.
"I will pick a time and place and if i win i want something from you My Princess." Th young man said.
"You will not win My Lord but please state what you want." Arya said and Edric chuckled leaning back into his chair and drinking some wine.
"When i win i want a kiss from you My Princess." The man said with a chuckle and Arya stared at him with an opened mouth. She did not like his idea but she will not back down from a challenge.
"When i win you will scrub all of my shoes and trust me they are all very dirty." Arya said and the man laughed.
"I will keep in touch my Princess." Edric said and kissed Arya's hand living a tingling feeling where his lips touched her hand and a blush on her cheek.
Sansa walked in with Willas into the Great Hall and Margery saw them and her eyes widened and a smile appeared on her face.
"Oh there you two are. I wanted to introduce the two of you myself but it seems like you two have already met." Margery said with a smile.
"Yes we just happened to run into each other and they we went for a walk." Willas said winking at Sansa who blushed but smiled.
"Well i am glad that you two are getting along. Come now Sansa i want you meet my brother Garlan and his wife." Margery said and Willas smiled at her and took her over to his brother and his wife.
"This is the second oldest brother Garlan and his wife Leonette." Margery said and Sansa looked at the two people in front of her. The man looked just like Loras only taller and more broader. He was also very handsome. The woman next to him was very dainty with blond hair and bright eyes and a pretty smile.
"It is very nice to meet you Princess. Everyone was accurate about your beauty" The woman said making Sansa blush.
"Thank you very much My Lady." Sansa said.
"I heard that you will become our sister and i wanted to welcome you to the family." Garlan said with a smirk. Willas looked t him with wide eyes and a tight jaw. Sansa did see that but she said nothing.
"I also heard that My Lord. It is an honour to be joining your family." Sansa said.
"You will love Highgarden My Princess. Its a truly beautiful place." Loenette said.
"I cannot wait to see the place." Sansa said back.
Soon it was time to go to sleep. Willas kissed her hand in front of her bedroom door.
"My Princess can i see you tomorrow again." Willas asked and Sansa nodded.
"I would love that My Lord." Sansa said.
"Have a good night My Princess." Willas kissed her hand and left her standing at the door like a fool smiling to herself and touching her hand. She was smitten by a man and she could not wait to get to know him a little better.
When Sansa closed the door the her bedchamber there was a knock and Naida entered the room. She had a smile on her face.
"So how did you like Lord Willas?" She asked sitting down on the chair. Sansa threw herself on the bed and screamed into the pillow making Naida laugh.
"He is so sweet and so captivating Naida. I am in love with his voice already. He talks so softly and when he is telling a story i feel like i am there when it is happening." Sansa said looking at Naida who laughed.
"I am glad Sansa that you liked him. He is the best match for you and i know that you would like Highgarden very much. It is said to be very beautiful." Naida said and Sansa looked at Naida.
"You will visit me?" Sansa asked feeling vulnerable.
"Off course i will visit you. When you have your first child i will come." Naida said and Sansa looked scared.
"Do you think i will be a good mother?" Sansa asked
"I know that you will be a great mother Sansa. Your children will adore you." Naida said kissing her on the forehead.
"Get some sleep Sansa." She said and walked out of the room and walked into her bedchamber.
Robb was already there in the bed. He opened his eyes to see his wife walking to their bedchamber.
"Where have you been?" he asked his vice hoarse
"I have been to see Sansa. I did not mean to wake you up." Naida said and Robb sat up a little on the bed.
"I was not asleep. I cannot sleep without you in the bed." Robb said and watched at his wife changed into her nightdress.
"Well you barely spoke to me in a fortnight." Naida said staying turned away from Robb, she did nor wished to look at his face.
"Neither did you Naida. It works both ways." Robb said taking a drink from his water
"I did not want to speak to you Robb. You do not respect my decisions. You went against me and let Robb ride a horse all by himself. He could have fallen from it and hurt himself." Naida said looking at Robb with an angry look.
"Naida our son needs to learn how to be a man. He will be the future King in the North. He needs to be strong and fierce." Rob said
"Robb he is only six. He had time to become a man. Let him be a boy first. You needed to grow up faster because of the war. Let our boy be a boy first." Naida said and Robb shoo his head.
"That is why i need him to be prepared. I was not prepared for war and i almost lost it. He needs to be prepared for everything. He needs to be a man and need to be able to defend his lands." Naida shook her head. She will not win this argument and she decided to let go.
"I will not argue with you anymore. Goodnight Robb." Naida said and laid down on the bed and turned away from Robb. He looked at his wife and shook his head.
"Naida please understand me. I love Ned very much and that is why i need him to learn." Robb said and Naida turned to look at him.
"I do not want Ned to resent us fro the way be brought him up." Naida said and Robb chuckled. Naida narrowed her eyes and punched him in the shoulder.
"Why much you always hit me. I am abused by my wife." Robb said and Naida laughed at him.
"Cause you are stupid that is why." Robb tried to kiss Naida but she moved away with a grimace on her face.
"You stink of wine Robb. Get away from me." Naida said and turned away from Robb. Robb shook his head and slapped her arse.
"You are such a tease Naida." He said and Naida laughed before closing her eyes and falling asleep.
