We light the fire | What if Jaehaera Targaryen lived?

FAMILY DYNAMICS

JAEHAERA'S POV, late 138 ac|

꧁————————————꧂

I look out of my window to the city outside"I hate confinement." I grab my doll in frustration and I throw it onto my sofa"You hate any limitations." Spoke Daenaera "So? Just because I'm 'with child' doesn't mean I can't have fun!" I just want to have fun what is so bad about that?

I begin to pace around out of boredom "your grace-"Daenaera tries to tell me to stop but I cut her off "Jaehaera." I correct her firmly "Okay, Jaehaera you cannot do that, it might harm the babe." She grabs me and guides me towards the sofa.

Why is it that all anyone cares about is the babe it's 'You might hurt the babe' or 'You mustn't stress you could hurt the babe' what about me? It's like nobody even looks at me anymore and they talk to me as if I'm 3 inches tall.

"What about what I want to do?" I lay myself flat on my back with my legs plopped up in the air "The grand maester said you should never do that and that it could bring a premature labor." Said Elizabeth (Blackwood Jaehaera's lady in waiting)

"ARGH!" Is the exact noise i decided to make to show my frustration as i put my legs down "You must not be angry it's bad for the child." Said Elizabeth.

This is my breaking point "How dare you." I turn my head towards all of them "I am the queen of the seven kingdoms! How dare you speak to me like this!!" They look at me as if I'm a toddler throwing a massive tantrum.

"Your grace, we only want what's best for everyone and the king having a healthy heir is the most important thing right now." Now it seems Isabel (Lannister) would also like to have a turn at stressing me out.

"I'm so close to throwing myself out of a window or down the stairs!"

They boarded up my windows, and I have 3 kingsguard outside of my door at all times now GREAT, can't a girl joke around even if maybe I wasn't really joking, but I wasn't gonna do it!

All I do is roll around on the floor and play with dolls, they hate when I roll because they think I'm squishing the baby so I love to roll.

Oh and Aegon doesn't have regents anymore he turned sixteen a few months ago so at least I don't have to worry about them no more.

Then there's this new whipping boy, Gaemon, he looks very Valyrian, my father strikes again I guess.

"Jaehaera?" I'm laying face forward onto my bed "Jaehaera!" I feel Aegon move me on my stomach and shake me as I play dead, out of being petty that he boarded up my GODDAMN WINDOWS!

I mean Aegon starts crying, He's holding me in his arms rocking me like a baby (it's comforting she won't admit it) I am right now trying to hold back laughter at him thinking I'm dead, I mean everybody else knows my shenanigans but Aegon doesn't I can't help but burst out into laughter.

"You actually fell for it!" I start laughing but uhm I guess Aegon really didn't get the joke "Since when has that ever been funny!" He's trying to wipe his tears away it sort of makes me feel bad "you boarded up my windows!" I yell at him "And laying down like that what if you hurt yourself or the babe do you have no thought of anything but what you want to do?!"he scolds me I'm sick of everyone speaking to me like a little girl.
