Chapter 9
Sansa fought to keep calm, to control the impulse to shiver at Joffrey's touch.
"Sansa, are you even listening to me." Joffrey growled.
She started and looked at him, worried. "I...I..."
Joffrey glowered. "You were thinking of that damned American right, I've warned you about that, you are spending too much time with him."
Sansa shook her head, shocked at Joffrey's accusations. "I'm not, I swear, I never..."
She didn't want to admit it but she was thinking about Brian, but not in the way Joffrey thought. She had been recalling his words to her in the library that day, of his kindness to her.
Her thoughts were cut off. "Don't lie to me."
Joffrey shook his head and spat. "Are you really that much a slut you think you can cheat on me with someone so worthless."
"I'm not..."
Joffrey grabbed her suddenly, she nearly cried out at the pain from where she was being grabbed.
"Don't you dare!" Joffrey snapped. "You will do as you are told and stop being around that American, got it."
She nodded, fighting back tears. He finally let her go and Sansa continued to sit by his side, miserable, her upper arms in pain from how roughly and hard he had grabbed them.
Elsewhere, Jamie sat eating his lunch, he was with Bran and Jojen again. He had to admit, he was a little confused.
'Jojen's been acting a little bit different lately...' He noted to himself. 'He almost seems, wary of me, I can't imagine why…?'
An idea came to him but he dismissed it. 'It couldn't have anything to do with Meera, surely not.'
Still things seemed much the same between the three, all of them friendly happy together, talking amongst themselves about their shared interests.
"Hey Fags!"
Jamie started and saw Jojen and Bran rolling their eyes. A group of people had approached them, glaring at Bran and Jojen.
"Corrupting some other innocent." The one at the head of the group snapped.
Bran shook his head. "Jamie is our friend, not that's it any of your business."
The boy snarled. "We won't let you turn some innocent into something disgusting like you."
"I think it's Jamie's choice who he is friends with." Jojen replied coolly. "Also I fail to see how we can do what you suggest...since it's impossible, let's not forget we were born..."
The leader of the group suddenly shouted. "That lie again!"
Jamie shook his head, this was getting out of hand.
"Excuse me." He said, getting their attention. "I think I am capable of speaking for myself."
All eyes turned to him and he felt nervous again, but forced himself to continue.
Clearing his throat he spoke.
"I don't know what your problem is with Bran and Jojen, and I don't care, but they are good people." He said calmly. "We get along fine, we're good friends and I don't appreciate your judging them like this."
Immediately the group flared up and one shouted. "We are trying to save you..."
"Nothing to be saved from. With attitudes like yours, I think you're the ones with the problem, now please leave." Jamie replied.
Scowling the leader of the group simply gestured to the others and they left. Jamie let out a slow breath, actually feeling amazed at what he had done.
"Jamie..."
He turned to Bran who looked at him worriedly.
Smiling he shook his head. "It's fine, I'm alright, are you guys…?"
Jojen nodded and shrugged. "Not the first time the Sparrows have give us trouble, won't be the last."
"The Sparrows?"
Bran explained. "They're a religious club, follow the Faith of the Seven, those people you saw are...well extremists, not all of them are like that."
"Lancel for instance, certainly isn't." Jojen added. "They...well, they have a problem with me and Bran because we're both gay, and dating."
Jamie nodded. "I see...honestly, what idiots. I can't stand people like them."
The other two nodded, relieved to see Jamie supported them and shared their opinion on those extremist members of the Sparrows.
Meanwhile, watching from a distance, the Sparrows glared.
"I don't believe it." One snarled. "Those fucking fags have already corrupted that boy."
Another nodded. "They'll turn him into one of them, if they haven't already, it's disgusting what those cock-suckers get away with these days."
The leader agreed. "Yes, well, we'll just have to see about that, won't we...We'll teach the two of them a lesson, show them how wrong their way is."
That surprised the others.
"We need a plan, let's go, we need to talk this out and find others who will help us...I think we'll start with the older one, he's clearly the most corrupt." The leader continued. "It was he who turned Bran Stark after all, Bran still has a chance of being saved."
The others agreed and they left, ready to begin discussing their plan.
End of chapter, looks like the stage is set for more drama to come, read and review please.
