Jump then Fall // Jaime Lannister

22. Go To Hell

Two more days until they went home. Cersei wanted to leave but Robert was the boss and he wanted to stay. Tyrion informed Alan that when he died on this island, he was losing faith in everything that he wanted the riding Nessy story and getting eaten by Meg. 

"Hey," Lena whispered coming up behind Jaime as they headed out again. "What's wrong?" Lena questioned as he pulled away from her. 

"Nothing." Jaime bit back. Lena opened and closed her mouth wordlessly. 

"I'm sorry about Joffrey." She said softly as she looked to her feet. 

"Are you?" Jaime countered. 

"Of course I am." Lena retorted locking eyes with him. She didnt kill Joffrey. She was screaming abort down the halls thinking Arya had poisoned him. If Joffrey was Jaime's son, she didnt want him to lose his son. But then after Joffrey's death Jaime seemed alright but now he couldnt look at her. 

"Jaime." Cersei demanded and he moved to her side. Lena watched him go confused. How did they go from devouring each other to this. Two more days and they were gone anyways, Lena thought bitterly. 

She couldnt believe she was so stupid. He said he wanted to stay that he wanted to be with her. There was nothing for him in westeros and now... 

Lena huffed out a breath as she moved farther away from the group. 

Her ancestors had no problem killing the royal family and they didnt even try. In fact they tried to save them. 

"Hey Aegon... your my pal. Your my guy!" Lena declared as their T Rex came running up to them. He dropped before Lena and rolled over. SHe scratched her nailed over his scales. "Yeah... you wouldnt leave me." Lena coed. 

"You know I have never felt more small than being here." Tyrion remarked. Lena offered him a small smile. "What's wrong gorgeous?"

"Nothing." Lena assured. 

"Don't take Joffrey's death personally." Tyrion assured. "I'm honestly surprised he has lived this long with how many people he has tormented or beaten in the past." Tyrion remarked and Lena chuckled. "Ah, it's not my nephew but my brother giving you such a pout on your face then." Tyrion pondered. 

"Am I that obvious?" Lena countered. 

"I'm good at reading people." Tyrion corrected. It started to drizzle and Cersei declared she didnt want her hair getting wet. Tyrion moved to follow them back but saw Lena sit down leaning back against Aegon. 

"Will he kill me if I sit by you?" Tyrion pondered. 

"Probably not." Lena offered.

"Comforting." Tyrion mused joining her. Jaime glanced back at them. He couldnt hear anything but seeing Lena's face, he knew she was just as miserable as himself. 

Maybe he heard her wrong. Maybe it was a joke. Maybe... maybe he didnt care if Cersei was gone. He wanted to stay on the island. He wouldnt see her again anyways... he was trying hard to rationalize an irrational thought. Murder of his twin. 

"Jaime!" Cersei hissed when she didnt see his shadow cascading over hers. "JAIME COME BACK HERE!" 

"There is a drinking game I like to play, we should play it." Tyrion remarked. 

"I like drinking." Lena agreed. 

"Lena can we talk?" Jaime questioned and Aegon stood up protectively. 

"I'm not sure what there is to say." Lena countered. "We fucked and now you are acting like I don't exist..." Lena reminded him. "Seems like you are a cunt just like your bastard son. But the problem is, I saw the red flags and I didnt care because you were sweet and interested in my work here and damn if you arent a good kisser." Lena murmured. 

"I heard you talking last night." Jaime corrected. 

"JAIME!" Cersei hissed. "Honestly, this whore of a woman murders Joffrey and you want to fuck her still? She is a murderer!"

"Lets not forget who asked me to kill her husband!" Lena countered. 

"You are imagining things." Cersei spat. 

"Then we will get your fucking ship and you can leave, happily ever after. When you husband dies of I don't poisoned wine, a rabid animal in the woods or perhaps a random invasion which i'm sure the intruder will be paid heavily in Lannister gold-" Lena went on. 

"Shut up! YOu don't know anything!" Cersei spat back charging at Lena. 

"Enough Cersei!"  Jaime demanded blocking her path. "Just enough! You are so entitled. You didnt get what you wanted from Robert so you manipulated me. You didnt get what you wanted from father so you manipulated and manipulated everyone in westeros. Well I'm done. Lena is brilliant and brave. SHe doesnt put up with your bullshit. Doesnt give into your twisted ways." 

Cersei knew she was going to lose Jaime for good and the words just spilled out of her. 

"You won't get your funding for the island if Robert isnt dead." Cersei spat and Lena chuckled crossing her arms over her chest. Tyrion's eyes went wide as Jaime's jaw slacked just slightly. 

"You know I'm not even surprised." Jaime remarked calmly. "I am staying here. I like it here. I really like Lena."

"Look at you, so easily bent to any pretty face." Cersei hissed "falling for anyone promising you forever and always but Jaime you and I were born into this world together. We are meant to be together til the end." 

"This is the end of the line for us, Cersei." Jaime corrected. 

"Fuck you, Jaime." Cersei sneered.

"Go to hell Cersei." Jaime countered. 

 "Fuck you, Tyrion," Cersei declared through a clenched jaw "and fuck you little miss-"

 Aegon stomped a foot down on top of Cersei, while Jaime and Tyrion stumbled backwards, Lena put a hand to her ear. 

"I'm sorry, I didnt hear that last part..."
