Arabella woke up and saw six handmaidens coming in with dresses and jewelery. "Wake up, Princess. It is your name day" Esther said handing her a robe.
"Don't you think I don't know" she sighed and got up. Arabella dreamt Robb and her. It was a sinful dream. She knew this would happen eventually, because they would get married.
The handmaidens dressed her, did her hair and she went out. "Happy name day" she saw Sierra.
"Thank you" they hugged.
"The King did a good job arranging the garden. It is beautiful there" Sierra linked their arms and they went out. The feast was indeed big. There were lots of people.
She walked to her seat and saw Cersei and Robert. "Happy name day, love" the mother kissed her daughter's cheek with a small smile on her lips. Arabella then hugged her father.
"You should've made it smaller. It probably cost a lot" Arabella saw Tommen and Myrcella running into her direction. They both hugged her. Arabella laughed and kissed both of them. "Where is Joffrey?" she asked.
"The Prince doesn't feel well" Cersei answered. Arabella knew he was fine. He just never liked her and how Robert loved her.
Everyone started handing their gifts. She saw Uncle Jaime talking with Ned Stark and decided to go there. "Princess Arabella"someone said. She turned around and saw Renly Baratheon, her uncle. "Happy name day" he smiled.
"Thank you, Uncle" she bowed her head. She never liked Renly as much as his older brother Stannis. People loved Renly more, but the princess loved Stannis. Unfortunately, Stannis was in Dragonstone at the moment.
"Your father really impressed me by throwing such big feast. And tommorow the tournament starts. I don't know if we'll be able to eat soon" he commented trying to bite.
"I'm sure you'll be able" she said with sarcasm in her voice. "Excuse me"
Arabella walked over to Jaime. Eddard Stark was already gone. "Happy--"
"Yes, yes. My ears are starting to hurt from this phrase" she sighed rolling her eyes gracefully.
Jaime raised his eyebrow at her. "My apologies. The Princess seems very bitter today. Is everything alright?"
Arabella glared at him but decided to tell him the reason. "Joffrey didn't show up. He is probably killing kittens. Why does he hate me so much?"
"I think the fault is jealousy" Jaime clarified making his niece to look at her with furrowed eyebrows. Jaime sighed before continuing. "Your Father gives all the attention to you. And not his other three kids"
"Princess Arabella!" Esther ran to them and bowed her head. "You received a present from your Uncle Tyrion" she informed and Arabella smiled.
"Go" Jaime encouraged. She nodded with a smile and came back to her seat. A man with a box appeared.
"Lord Tyrion congratulates you with your sixteenth name day and gives you this present. He hopes you will like it and wear it with pride" the man bowed down and handed a box to Arabella. She opened it and saw a ring with a stag on it. It was her house sigil. She smiled and put it on her finger.
"Do you know when is he coming back?" She raised her eyes at the man.
"Apologies, but no, Princess" he shook his head.
"Thank you, Lord..." she trailed off not knowing his name.
"Lord Stenly, Princess" he bowed his head to the Royal family and left.
"It is beautiful" Myrcella commented admiring the ring.
"One day, little, I will give this to you"Arabella smiled stroking her cheek.
"Princess" she saw Sansa and Arya. "Happy name day" Sansa smiled. Arya looked like she didn't want to be there.
"Thank you, ladies. Mind to sit here? I need some company" Arabella chuckled while moving a little to give them a seat.
Sansa took the offer and sat down with a wide grin. Arya sighed and sat down.
The day passed. Arabella was dressing down when the door opened and Cersei walked in. "Rest, dear" she said. "Tommorow is a big day"
"I don't want to go there" Arabella shook her head.
"Me too" Cersei sighed and walked over to her and took her cheeks into her palms. "But you know what?" Cersei smiled.
"What?" Arabella questioned with a frown.
"We can always leave" Cersei smirked slightly making Arabella chuckle.
