Rhaenyra sat in a council meeting absolutely annoyed as she listened to the men argue like children. Rhaenyra hits her head on the chair as she slumps down a bit as she waits for her turn to speak. 

Rhaenyra stood up as she was ready to present her proposal to her old friend. "My son Jacaerys will inherit the Iron Throne after me. I propose we betroth him to your daughter, Helaena." Rhaenyra presents to the council hoping for the split of the two houses to be bonded by this engagement. "Ally ourselves... once and for all. Let them rule together." She continues. 

"A most judicious proposition." Viserys says 

"Additionally, if Syrax brings forth another clutch of eggs, your son Aemond will have his choice of them, uh... a symbol of our goodwill." "Rhaenyra." Alicent says glancing down to signal Rhaenyra that she was leaking milk. The action catches the attention of the men in the room. 

"Oh, Seven Hells, um." Rhaenyra says covering her chest and sitting down in embarrassment. "My dear... a dragon's egg is a handsome gift." Viserys tells Alicent. "The King and I thank you for your offer and we will consider it duly." Alicent tells Rhaenyra. The council meeting continues for a little longer till all the members except for Rhaenyra, Alicent, and Viserys are left. 

"All right now if Helaena and Jacaerys are not to marry how about we consider Helaena and Ageon?" Viserys say or more directly tell Alicent.

"There are other options." Alicent says. "For example Bealon. He is a fine respectful young man and will be a formidable knight when he is older. And he is very respectful to Helaena." Alicent says surprising Rhaenyra. But what surprised both of them was when Viserys let out a loud laugh. 

"Bealon is a bastard. Why would we marry Helaena to him. And since he will be a knight it is likely he will go into battle and never return." "My love.." Helaena will either marry Jacaerys my grandson, or Aegon my son. That is it." Viserys says as he motions to leave. Alicent gets up and leaves the room quickly clearly not happy with Viserys decision. Rhaenyra followed soon after. 



As Rhaenyra was walking through the corridor she stopped in her place when she saw Alicent staring towards the garden a soft smile on her face. A smile Rhaenyra hadn't seen since their childhood. Rhaenyra looked towards where Alicent was looking and saw a scene that she would never forget. 

Baelon was sitting on the ground laughing as Helaena placed a flower crown on top of his head. Rhaenyra had never seen Baelon be so carefree and her sweet sister had never smiled so brightly at least not to Rhaenyra's knowledge. Rhaenyra had no clue why her father had distaste towards Baelon he was a sweet kid and very respectful and kind. Uncoucisly Rhaenyra finds herself smiling a soft smile just like Alicent from the scene of the two.

Rhaenyra makes her way to the training grounds where her husband was to inform him that they would be leaving for Dragonstone.

Short chapter, sorry for that. 
 I love Baelon's and Helaena's relationship
Also, Season Two Episode 1 is so depressing
