The Fire That Burns Within US - Aemond Targaryen

Dīnilūks

136 - Red Keep (Two Months Later)

Visenya skips her way to the courtyard. She had seen House Tully banners making their way to the castle; Robert and his men are some of the last men to arrive, with the wedding tomorrow. Visenya is nervous about her wedding, her mind jumping to unlikely things that might happen or Aemond deciding last minute that he doesn't want to marry her.

The past two months have been amazing. No drama. Days filled with Dragon riding, training, and planning. The Queen had helped Visenya the most with making plans for the wedding, and the two had put aside the past and got along pretty well with each other.

Visenya enters the courtyard at the same time Robert gets off his horse. The two make eye contact with one another and rush to each other. They forget about their status and what is proper, and they wrap their arms around one another—squeezing tight. Visenya and Robert haven't seen one another since the death of Rob's father, so they are happy to be together again, with only one person missing from their group.

Robert hasn't changed much during his time as Lord of Riverrun. His dark red hair is still cut short, but now he has a beard that Ben will no doubt make fun of the man for growing.

"It seems that our deal of marrying one another will never happen now," Rob jokes as the two pull apart.

"It seems so," Visenya says in a sad mocking tone. She punches Rob's arm as she says. "But you will always have Ben,"

"I don't think I am his type, nor is he mine," Rob tells Visenya. Rob grabs ahold of Visenyas arms. "By the gods, I hope Aemond knows how lucky he is. And if he doesn't, you always can fall back on me,"

"How considerate of you," Visenya says, slightly laughing at his words.

"I know, having you as a wife would be the worst thing in the world, but you have some features that would make up for your terrible personality and loud mouth," Rob jokes, and Visenya pretends to be offended at his words. She pulls her arms out of his hold and jokingly puts her hands over her heart.

"I can have your tongue for that," Visenya tells him, and Rob backs up with his hands raised.

"If you can catch me," Robs says as he moves away from Visenya.

"Oh, it's on you, little bitch," Visenya tells him as she moves toward Rob. The two act the same as two siblings would, happy that they can act like they don't hold the titles they do.

Rob smiles before running; Visenya chases after him, and the two laugh as they run. Rob runs into the castle, hoping to escape Visenya and find Ben to join their game. The two run past different Lords and Ladies in the hallway and Visenya smiles as she gains on Rob. The armour that she is wearing is lighter than his heavy metal armour. Visenya grabs the back of Rob's chest plate and pulls him back towards her, him falling to the ground, and Rob takes Visenya down with him.

The two laugh as they lay on the ground, but it stops when Rob is pulled off the ground by two Kingsguards, and Visenya stands. Visenya straightens out her clothes and smiles at the Kingsguards.

"Please let go of Lord Tully. We were just playing a game," Visenya tells them, and they do as she says. Bowning their heads towards Visenya before they leave the two.

"I was about to shit myself," Rob whispers to Visenya, who snorts at his words.

"That would have made this day perfect," She tells him as she offers him her arm. The link arms and Visenya pull him towards Ben and the rest of his family. "Getting to see you and then you humiliating yourself,"

"Where is our darling Ben?" Rob asks Visenya.

"The Godswoods with his family and Lord Stark," Visenya tells him as they walk. She knew that Ben would be the next person that Rob would want to see.
