The Name-Day Dance.
A/U: The day of Prince Gendry's name day has arrived, and his betrothed Sansa and her sister Arya have come from Winterfell for the occasion. However after meeting the young wolves, it becomes apparent he has the wrong sister. Only thing is Lady Arya doesn't seem to agree.
Chapter Four,
Gendry stood face to face with lord Stark, now outside his family's apartments. Never before had the prince feared lord Eddard so much. The scowl on his face was the most frightening thing the prince had seen for a while.
"Come we should talk im my study" The prince nodded, they began to walk the stairs leading to lord Stark's study. Although he only walked up one floor, it felt like he had climbed one hundred from how slowly they walked. Eddard swung the door to his study open. The prince followed suit, ensuring the door remained open so he had some means of escape. "If you would your highness" he nodded at the door, practically giving the prince an order.
"Certainly lord Stark" Although lord stark was his lesser in terms of titles, the prince gave him the respect her deserved. Unlike his brother he was not a spoilt brat. Eddard sat behind his desk, and waited for the prince to do the same.
"You are betrothed to one of my daughters, must you claim the heart of the other too?"
"I do not claim her affection my lord"
"Yet you yell yours for all to hear" Eddard had a point, he was probably heard all the way across the narrow sea.
"Because it is the truth lord Stark" The hand lent back in his chair, pondering the prince's answer. Clearly thinking up a plan.
"I will break your betrothal to Sansa" Began lord Eddard "If Arya returns your love"
"Thank you lord Stark I'll-" Eddard cut him off.
"If Arya does not, you will wed Sansa. And i will hear no more of this nonsense"
"I will go at once" The prince smiled and began to bound from the room.
"Not now my daughters need their sleep" Eddard rose from his chair "And i suspect i will have to calm Sansa" They both departed from Lord Eddard's study, the hand climbed the stairs to his chambers. At the same time the prince headed to his own quarters.
Gendry smiled looking forward to what the next day would bring.
