'No sunflowers I don't like yellow.' Laures was staying as she wore a green dress with a yellow veil bronn was skipping rocks into the stream as they walked, 'roses are nice definitely roses and music I adore music but no flutes I hate flutes. we can have a harp if you like but no flutes and food!' she was preparing for the wedding Bronn was severely bored, 'food is the most important thing don't you think we need pigeon pie? that is what they eat in the capital don't they... Don't they?' she asked looking to bronn finally he acknowledged her.

'Don't who?'

'Don't people eat pigeon pie in the capital?' she said smiling brightly at him

'They certainly do my dear.' he said wrapping around hers 'they certainly do.' he was bored out of his mind 'it's a fine place.' he said a fine place looking up at the castle was he really so vain? Yes he was and he wanted a castle he was going to put up with this twat to get it 'I never thought I would end up settling down in a place like this.'

'We won't get to live at the castle when my father dies my sister gets the castle because she's older.' Laures told her

'oh...' bronns fantasy drifted away

'She hates me.' Laures went on 'she calls me mean names and even still she pulls my hair and mother is not looking.'

'Do you know what I think? I think you are a good person and your sister is a mean person.' Bronn told her.

'She is' Laures agreed

'I've been all over the world if there's one thing I have learned it is meanness comes around people like your sister they always get what's coming to them eventually.' Bronn told her 'one way or another...' 'Who is that?' Laures questioned

'Jamie fucking Lannister.' Bronn said walking off

'Ser bronn of the black water.' Jaime said as they approached.

'Ser Jamie.' Laures said excitedly she followed at bronns heels Jaine was waiting for them at the River

'I was very sorry to hear about your father.' Bronn said

'Thank you.'

'This is my betrothed Laures.' Bronn said as Laures beamed at Jaime.

'A pleasure.' Jaime said kissing her hand

'Run along love.' Bronn said he didn't like the way every woman seemed to look at Jaime Lannister 'Beautiful young bride you've chosen when are you planning on getting married?' Jaime questioned

'Just get on with it.' Bron urdged

'On with what?'

'Whatever here for there's no way this visit could possibly mean anything good for me.'

'It's very good for you.' Jaime corrected handing him scroll Bronn opened it up skeptically he read it over

'Laures will be marrying so Willis Racken, we made a deal your sister and I.' Bronn reminder

'I would've advised against that.' Jaime told him.

'How is this good for me?'

'Because you were going to come with me and help me with something important and when we return I'm going to give you a much better girl in a much better Castle.'

'Return from where?' Bronn questioned

'As far south as South goes.' Jaime told him

'I thought I would find you out here.' Josie remarked coming up behind Willas.

'I hoped you would visit me.' Willas told her happily as she sat down next to him in the grass.

'I missed you telling me about the stars, I ever got a book on them back at the capitol.' Josie informed him.

'did you now?"

'Yeah, its silly-'

'No, that's...' he didn't know what to say, she wanted to be closer to him.

'I felt like, we were under the same stars so we were closer.'

'and now you are here in my arms.' He remarked.

'much better.' Josie agreed. 'Tell me about them.' Josie requested leaning back into him.

'Sirius, also known as the Dog Star or Sirius A, is the brightest star in Earth's night sky. The name means "glowing" in Greek — a fitting description, as only a few planets, the full moon outshine this star.'

"where is it?" josie questioned as she leaned abck into him. He missed this, this closeness, he had heard that Oebryn Martell had perished in the captiol but didn't want to ask if anything had transpired there because in all honesty it didn't matter because she was here with him now.

'To find Sirius, use the belt of Orion as a pointer. The belt's three stars point downward toward Sirius to the left. Located in the constellation of Cassiopeia in the Perseus arm of the Milky Way galaxy and some 7,500 light-years from Earth... in the Heart Nebula.' Willas told her and Josie smiled up at him as he traced his fingers over her heart tap, tap, tapping.

'Heart nebula.' She repeated.

'The reason for this name should be obvious once you see it, its two swooping wings resemble the shape of a heart, and it glows red from within,' Willas told her.

'how poetic.' Josie remarked.

'Where you find heart, you'll also find soul. To the east, also known as the Soul Nebula. Inside are several open clusters, containing several generations of stars: older stars in the hollows of the nebula's cavities making more of a red tint, and younger stars lining the rims making them more green.'

'Why are there different colors?" Josie pondered

'Some people believe that when the older stars formed, the intense activity pushed the gases outward into the dense clouds indicated by the green regions. In turn, this activity caused new bursts of star formation in the newly formed dense areas.'

'You are so smart.' Josie informed him. 'to remember all this.'

'I was taught in all the politics of the world as well, battle plans and houses, regions but the stars are much more interesting.' Willas told her.

'I agree.'
