ONE MOON LATER.
Elaena's crying was could be heard throughout the chambers. Alana rocked her but she still cried, she tried to nurse her but that didn't work, she tried everything to stop her crying but nothing seemed to work.
It was Baelon's name day today, and yet she didn't know where Aegon was nor Baelon. Rhaella was with Helaena and her twins in the gardens, blissfully unaware of her sister and mother's struggles.
Alana paced the chambers, bouncing Elaena up and down in her arms gently, trying to do everything she could. The sounds of her cries were annoying to Alana, but she would never admit it as Elaena was still a helpless babe.
"It's okay.." Alana shushed Elaena but she would not stop crying. Alana was on the verge of tears herself, trying to soothe her daughter but nothing seemed to be working making her efforts seem hopeless.
Just as tears almost started to fall the door opened, revealing Aegon in his riding leather, his hair crazy, holding Baelon's hand who also had crazy hair, it was obvious that Aegon had brought Baelon riding on Sunfyre.
His smile immediately went down once he saw Alana with tear brimming at her eyes, and a look of exhaustion in her expression holding a crying Elaena. "What's wrong.." Aegon gave Baelon a squeeze of his hand before releasing and walking to Alana, placing a gentle hand on her shoulder.
Alana sighed, glancing at Baelon and Aegon, Aegon noticing the look. "Baelon why don't you find Rhaella?" Aegon looked at Baelon.
Baelon nodded, blissfully unaware of the rooms tension, and smiled walking out the door.
Aegon looked back at Alana as he heard the door clink shut, he held out his arms for Elaena, to which Alana happily gave him Elaena, her cries softening as she felt her father's presence.
As Alana heard Elaena's cries soften, she felt instant relief. "S-she wouldn't stop crying."
Aegon placed Elaena on his chest, holding her with one hand, using his free hand to hold Alana's cheek, "It's alright, she's calm now." Alana nodded at his words, before Aegon continued "I'm sorry I wasn't here.."
Alana shook her head, blinking away her tears. "It's not your fault, you were spending your day with Baelon for his name day."
Aegon nodded, but he still held a guilty expression. "I'm here now.." He brought her for a side hug, as he still held Elaena.
