A/N
Part two chapters will be a little shorter than previous chapters but I promise after part two, the chapters will get longer again.
*********Joanna and Robb rode their horses' side by side. It was currently nearing night as the two watched the sunset with some guards a bit away behind them.
They sat in silence but it was peaceful. That was until a horse ran up to them from out of nowhere.
Joanna turned her head to look at the person only to have her eyes widen. "Jeyne! What are you doing here?" Joanna asked in a hurry as she and Jeyne Westerling got off their horses along with Robb.
"It's Cerenna!" Jeyne spoke in a rush as she lifted her cover to reveal a sleeping Cerenna Stark.
Immediately Joanna picked up the girl and held her close. "She's had a fever for days. None of the maesters know what's wrong with her. I came as quick as I could." Jeyne continued
"Lady Westerling, we appreciate your hurry. You look exhausted. Why don't you go get some rest? One of our guards will escort you, and my wife and I will care for our daughter from here." Robb told the woman who nodded her head and walked away with a guard as Robb turned to his family.
"Joanna?" Robb softly spoke
"She has a fever. But it doesn't seem serious. I believe she will be okay but perhaps maybe our maesters may be able to help." Joanna ranted as she held her daughter who was almost 2.
"Joanna, let me..." Robb trailed as she hesitantly let him take Cerenna out of her arms. "She's beautiful Joanna," Robb told the woman who smiled as they began to walk to the maesters tent.
"We did that Robb. Together." Joanna replied as she tried to contain her breathing.
"She'll be okay Joanna. If she is anything like us, she'll be okay." Robb whispered to the woman as they entered the tent.
...
After a while, the three left the tent after finding out that Cerenna only had a small cold. "Let's keep her here. With us. Lady Jeyne can stay to help us. As well as you have Lady Talisa." Robb explained once they reached their tent.
"You don't think it will be too dangerous?" Joanna asked softly
"We will have guards surrounding her at all times. We will have an easy escape route for Jeyne and Cerenna just in case. I don't want her to go back. What if something happens and we are here and she is over there?" He told her and Joanna nodded her head agreeing with him.
"She has your eyes. You will see when she wakes up. She is all, you Robb. All you..." Joanna softly spoke with a small smile just as Lucion, Ashter, and Catelyn all entered the tent. "Uncle Luc! Look!" Joanna softly exclaimed pointing to the girl who was now slowly waking up.
"Is that?" Luc asked in shock walking up to the girl.
"Cerenna Lannister-Stark. Yes, it is." Robb spoke up looking over at his mother and Ashter and motioning them towards him.
Lucion was the first to pick her up as he hadn't seen the girl since she was born "she's even more beautiful than I remember." He spoke as he handed the girl to Catelyn who began to tear up as she took the girl into her arms.
"She looks so much like Robb," Catelyn told the group who smiled
"How does it feel to meet your granddaughter? Your first one at that." Robb asked the woman who smiled
"It feels amazing! You both created something beautiful!" Catelyn exclaimed as Cerenna looked around until she saw Robb and tried to move and hold her arms out to him.
