You and Me

chapter 7

"Veralee gentle" vera's mother reminded, as younger vera was playing with her new baby sister. Veralee didn't respond to her mother both her and Melvin were busy with the new family addition. Veralee was mesmerised seeing her baby sister so tiny but Melvin in the other hand was less impressed. He had already gone through all
of this when Vera was born.

"Melvin look" Veralee smilies holding up her sister hand. " tiny!"

"yes they are very tiny" the teen boy agreed with his little sister. he was happy see her happy.

"Is she gonna stay this tiny forever" Veralee asked Melvin.

"of course not " Melvin laughed at her sisters silly question.

" you were once this tiny to you know" Veralee mother told.She started to get up from her seat. Melvin immediately shot up from the floor to help his still recovering mother.

"mother you must be careful they doctor says you need rest" he scolded.

"oh my sweet boy, I will be fine" she says sitting on the floor as Melvin grabbed her a pillow.She sat next to Vera who held Alma-louise tightly.

"I'lol get you something to drink" Melvin offered and left before he could hear his mother protest

" she is cute isn't she" Vera's mother smilies as her fingers delicately rub the babies skin.

"She is, but not as much as me" Veralee joked causing her mother to laugh.

"oh my dear nothing can be cuter than you" Veralee's mother agreed.

"remember now, One day you will have her back the same way Melvin has your. You siblings must stick together no matter what" Vera's mother advised." soon you'll feel it. That overwhelming protection to be close and protect them the same way your brother does you"

Veralee woke up gasping at the memory of her mother. Her eyes took a moment to adjust to the room around her. She was in her room, her new room. In king's landing. She saw the sunlight pouring into the room and a took a moment to calm her self.

"Nightmare?" A voice questioned. Veralee sat up to look at him. Her husband was by the dresser securing his belts around his tunic.

"uhh, not exactly" Vera rasped. She brought her knees up so she could use them to support her elbows and rubbed her eyes.

"Do you wanna talk about it" Jacaerys offered. He mentally felt like face palming himself, because he wasn't even sure if they were that close. It had only been a day since they got married.

"Urm, no, I hate talking about..." Veralee wasn't exactly sure what to say it was so she just stopped talking hoping Jacaerys would understand. There was a knock at the door causing both of them to snap their gaze to the door.they watched as the door opened to reveal maggie.

" you highness " Maggie did a slight curtsy. " I'm here to help Veralee  get ready"

"of course " Jace said turning to his wife. "I'll see you at breakfast" he nodded at the two woman as a gesture or farewell before leaving.

"you to seem to be getting along" maggie blurted

"barely" Veralee sighed.

"Right than, up you get" Maggie encouraged, she went into the bathroom drawing a bath. Veralee later joined in after cleaning her teeth and tying up her hair.

"So Maggie you haven't told me what it feels like for u to be here" Veralee started.

"Well the other maidens here seem to be rather huge with gossips, but some of them are quite nice" Maggie started as she got some soap in her hand, and rubbing it together to fluff it up " My room mate's lovely tho, She is quite interesting"
