You and Me

Chapter 2

Veralee woke up only a few hours later. Her head pounded but she knew she needed to meet her friends asap now matter how hurt she felt. She grabbed her least expensive clothes that were as plain as possible to look more common. She grabbed a cloak to cover her long red hair and a sack of emergency money she shoved into a pocket she stitched in. She opened her window and hastily climbed down it before running for the back gate. She quickly began her walk into town, whilst trying to keep balnce as her head still felt light from earlier.

The streets were quite lively at 12, Veralee headed down a few alley, trying to avoid drawing attention.She entered the tavern, to see people dancing around drunkly. She went to the bar stool, where she sat at a stool. She took of the hood of her clock, waiting for her friends, hoping that they didn't get caught either.She ordered some water in the mean time to try and keep bussy and help with her head ache.

What Veralee didn't know was that Melvin, Jacaerys and Daemon were on the other side of the the bar seats. It was a rough night and Melvin was going to go out for a drink; When jacaerys being the perfect man he is offered to go with him and Daemon decided to tag along to supervise. None of the men seem to notice Veralee's presence until she took of her clock hood.Melvin was a bit tipsy and he though he noticed her but he couldn't be to sure, either way to be safe he decided to keep the men bussy.

"Is? Is that Veralee?" a light headed Jace pointed out.

"If I am not wrong didn't she just pass out a while back" Daemon said curious.

"Oh gods" Melvin muttered. The three of the watched unsure of what to do, until they saw a man approach. The waited to see if the man was who she was waiting for.

"Make that two, one for me and the pretty lady here" A man told the bar tender as he approached her.

"Cancel that I am not with him" Veralee ordered. The Bar tender gave the man his drink.

"oh cmon what the fun in that" The drunken man slurred.

"Leave me alone" was all Veralee said trying to ignore his presence.

"That's no way to talk to me, do you know who I am" he smiled

"Look who ever the fuck you are you can leave a girl alone in bloody pace" Veralee snapped.

"You know it's dangerous for girls like you out here so late, especially with that mouth" he whispered getting closer and trying to touch her. Veralee grabbed the drink before him and splashed it on his face. The alcohol burned his eyes making him groan. Veralee took that moment to walk away while purposely making the heel of her boot crush his toe. she walked over to a table near the bar.

"Vera" a soft voice called from behind her.

"Sybell" Veralee called back as both girls embraced each other deeply. Upon pulling apart Sybell's hand shot straight up to Veralee's hair line caressing the small dried up cut.

"What happened" she asked concerned.

"Dinner didn't go so well, I fainted and hit my head" Veralee explained.

"oh gods" Sybell cursed.

"I am so sorry father, just won't let me leave the house, and now the Targaryens are here and just, I missed you deeply" Veralee ranted.

"Do not worry about that, You must know that all of us missed you a lot as well." Sybell comforted" so the betrothal is official? Me and the others got letters asking to be your lady and leave with you for kings landing"

"I guess so" Vera sighed. hugging her friends once more, before pulling apart again to hold each others hand. while sitting across from each other.

"Vera me and girls put something together for you." Sybell said. as she pulled out a small sack and placed it on the table." money, lots of it. A forged identity paper. Key to a house in Myr, A ticket for the ride and everything-" Veralee's eyes widened at what her friends was saying and she immediately stopped her.
