Avalon was having an impossible time getting Draco on board with leaving.

"I can just pick him up and throw him over my shoulder." Sandor offered.

"I'm about one tantrum away from agreeing to that." Avalon remarked.

"Davina said Jon is coming back with us and I want to marry him." Tywin remarked stiffly. "I objected. Of course."

"Of course you did." Avalon mused. "What did she say to that?" Tywin kissed the top of her head pulling her back into him. "What did she say?"

"I'm asking mum then." Tywin grumbled.

"And I would say yes." Avalon agreed.

"Thats why she isnt talking to you about it. She is too young." Tywin corrected.

"I agree, she can be courted by him for at least a year, but then a wedding!" Avalon declared happily. 

"Avalon." Tywin grumbled. 

"Mum!" Davina declared. "Oh... hello Father." 

"Davina-'

"I'm sorry but this is a mother daughter conversation." Davina sassed. 

"Of course Jon can with us, I'm so glad he decided to come all this way!" Avalon declared. Davina squealed. 

"I'm so glad you said yes!" Davina agreed. "But Just so you know, even if you both said no I was going to sneak him in either way."

"Oh I know." Avalon agreed kissing her temple. "I'm so glad you have Jon."

"Me to." Davina agreed. "I was thinking... I want to tell him."

"Tell him?" Tywin questioned. 

"About us... about... who we are."

"No." Tywin corrected. 

"Lets just wait a bit." Avalon agreed. 

"And you are having a year long engagement." Tywin added. 

"What?" Davina demanded. "Thats forever!" 

"Yes and if Jon is the one for you," Avalon cooed touching her daughters hair, framing her face. "A year together will be just as magical, getting to know each other and love each other in the most innocent of ways."

"Innocent?" Davina countered. 

"Was Jon in your chambers last night?" Tywin demanded. 

"Why are you so nosey!" Davina shouted back. "We didnt do anything!" 

"Oh my..." Tywin gasped. "He was."

"Tywin-" Avalon begged. 

"You are grounded for... for... forever!" Tywin decided. 

"MOTHER!" Davina whined. 

"Go to your room." Tywin demanded. Davina stomped a foot down. 

"You are ruining my life!" Davina screamed back. 

"Honey, just give us a moment." Avalon requested as Davina stomped off. "Tywin," Avalon turned to her husband, he crossed his arms and looked up and away from his beautiful and terrifying wife. "Tywin." She demanded again. His gaze shifted to her. 

"SHe is too young." Tywin grumbled. 

"I know she is our baby girl but our baby girl is growing up." Avalon remarked. "We can't keep her our little girl forever, we have to let her grow up. Fall in love. Jon is a good boy." Avalon assured kissing his cheek. 

"Shes our firstborn." Tywin reminded her, grabbing her hands. "She is our little Davina, I... oh Avalon." Tywin sighed heavily. "Can't we just hide her from men and turn her into a spinster? I want her to stay ours. I dont want her to get her heart broken."

"No. That is part of growing up. Heart break. Giving someone your heart and trusting them not to break it." Avalon reminded him. "You have held my heart a long time Tywin, now go and talk to our daughter." 

Tywin slumped off and heard Jon in Davina's room, yet again. That boy had a death wish. 

"He just doesnt know you." Davina assured softly, her head tipped into Jon's shoulder. "He didnt come north with us, he didnt see you train. He didnt see how honorable you are... how... charming you are. He didnt get to know you like I did." 

"We dont know each other well, its logical that your father would be hesitant." Jon assured. "And I am a bastard." she looked up to face him. 

"That doesnt matter to me. You can be Jon Lannister or..." Targaryen, Davina thought her face turned down. "Or we can just go by Davina and Jon. No last names." Davina assured. Jon chuckled kissing her cheek. 

"I love you Davina."

"You do?" 

Jon's breath hitched. 

"I... I do." Jon agreed. "I never thought about... girls before you. My brother went off to brothels but I never wanted to... share that part of myself with anyone. I didnt want to burden another person with my bastard title."

"Something I dont care about because I love you. Not your name Jon. I love you." Davina declared. 

"And I love you, Davina, I say this with love. please get off my daughters bed." Tywin instructed as he came in and Jon shot up, like a soldier. Davina rolled her eyes flopping back on to the bed. "Jon... leave us." Tywin instructed. 

"Yes my lord." Jon ran out, glancing back at Davina from the door, she was grumbling like a gremlin.

"Davina... I'm sorry-"

"I'm grounded forever. Remember?" Davina sassed. "So go away."

"Then why was Jon in your bed?" Tywin countered. 

"Because I grounded him with me." Davina decided with a cheeky grin. 

"Davina, I know I'm hard on you when it comes to boys but that is only because... well I failed Cersei." Tywin admitted. 

"Yeah but thats not your fault." Davina assured. "Cersei wanted to be a princess from birth." Davina decided. 

"Thats true. But you understand, Cersei married the king and she is miserable." Tywin admitted. "She got her crown and a husband that she hates."

"Yeah well Robert is awful and wants us dead. If he knew." Davina agreed. 

"Yes." Tywin agreed. "And thats another thing." Tywin hesitated. 

"I wanted to tell him."

"I know you do but Dav, there is more to it." Tywin begged. 

"Then tell me!" Davina demanded. 

"It's complicated and you know our secret is dangerous too. If the wrong people-"

"But Jon isn't the wrong people! He's the love of my life." 

Tywin could see that he wasnt getting anywhere and he sighed kissing her temple before rising up from the bed. 

"You are not grounded." Tywin decided. 

"Thanks." Davina mumbled. 

"But please, no boys in your bed."
